Love help: Inside every boy there is a Man. - Help.com

Oh good, I was worried for a sec. after reading the subject header I thought this was about pedophilia.

Um…. what?

Inside every boy is a man………

I see. And what is the question here exactly?

Don’t think there is one. Seems kinda like a sexist outlook on life in my opinion.

I wouldn’t say every girl wants the confident out-going man, the majority perhaps, but not all. Some women actually like the chase, not to be tried out, and then passed by. I know that wasn’t your point or what you were saying, but it seems I may have interpreted it incorrectly.

However, from a woman’s perspective, like Anon. It could be perceived as a little sexist. But meh, what can you do? Women have rights, they shouldn’t be feminists.

Actually, I thought he was being sexist to men as well. “Men are told that they should show emotion and stuff.” Basically saying men should be tough guys and not be emotional. He sees what he dislikes in males today and tried to convince them it’s not okay to be that way. He is 19 and judging every male and female in the US as though we should be one way. I do agree confidence is what make people attractive to one another, however you can still be sensitive and confident.

He does have sound advice withstanding his views on sensitivity and roles of men and women.

“However, from a woman’s perspective, like Anon.” um….. didn’t know I was a girl. lol Well, assuming gets you wrong answers I always say.

i really deteste the part about describing women as a bloody ‘box of light bulbs’ we have feelings too and men should respect that. of course this is from a girls point of view so its bound to be a bit naturally bias, but i believe what i believe. whether it’s right or wrong. im not saying every man is like this, what i am saying is downman1 dosn’t really have the right to go on saying men are stupid and weak if they are scared to talk to women. case closed.

Thanks. ^^ I’m glad some one got that. People seem to be lacking a sense of humor at times. But I do agree with you for the most part, I guess I misinterpreted some of what you were saying.

i think males should have the right to show what ever goddamn emotions they want without being shunned.
that goes for the strong confidence like you said as well as the emotion and care that A GOOD NUMBER OF MEN (not all) show now a days. you complaining that we are shunned for not showing different forms of emotion is contradictory to the fact that men are also shunned for being nice and gentle.
i will show what ever ******* emotions i want.
i have no ******* clue where you are getting all of this “logic”
and i know tons of women that would rather have a gentle quiet man than a brash, overconfident man.
the reason we have stopped showing our brawny and brash sides is because this is not the ******* stone age and i am not going to have to club the biggest animal to get the highest ranking in life.
society is not putting anyone’s feelings down.
maybe you had some bullshit to deal with on a few occasions, but that does not mean the whole of society is out to get the ones who act all brave like.
and i see the sexism in you putting women out like prizes for a match of survival of the fittest and something you can just throw away after finding faults in.
i personally have kept every light bulb i have ever broken on my shelf. it has not been a lot, but they are still there.

I don’t know how to put this delicately….AMEN!

I personally can’t stand confident men. I’ve only had bad news with them. They’re cocky, too self-assured and they usually think they have the right to treat women like crap. The nice, shy, emotional guys? I seem to have had better luck with, and they don’t make me feel inferior.

I agree. Too much confidence comes off as cocky. and I hate cocky men more than anything. They don’t impress me, they don’t make me swoon, they make me sick. No, I don’t like men who are doormats and cry at commercials, I like a littke bit of “man” to my men. But I don’t need him p*ssing in the sink and flexing his muscles all the time.

Yep, and I’ve seen the people get hurt by not seeing this.

A sexist look at life What are you talking about thats the opposite thing i’m talking about. Women like a confident man… they do. Society Puts down man’s nature. Just because i think men should act like they always doesn’t make me sexist, Actually it makes me the opposite I’m taking about Men’s liberation.

You have no clue what women like.
