Is it that the only things that we need and what defines us is just food , sex and sports? I have seen this view of men a couple of times and I usually take it as comic relief. But could it be that some men are selling themselves short , sabotaging their relationships , and setting them up for failure , simply because they refuse to demand that they be treated with equal respect as women? I have NEVER met a simple man who only wanted sex and food in my life. I have NEVER met a simple woman who only wanted sex and money in my life. I view people as complex multi-dimensional creatures , each with different layers of consciousness , subjective to biology and social constructs, but with the capacity to sublimate even our most basic instincts for something of higher value. So that even though a man is biologically wired to be sexually aroused by a woman, he is not sexually aroused by his daughter or mother, neither does he rape women. Whereas ,a woman is biologically wired to be sexually attracted to the symmetry , strength and manliness of a man , she is not sexually attracted to her father ,neither does she sell sex to random ,strange men for money. Yesterday while I was at the supplement store purchasing my protein powder, the " twentysomething - ish " salesgirl who I was chatting with got a call from her dad wishing her happy valentine's day. She was all smiley, bubbly and happy, as she wished her dad the same.She ended the conversation with "...I love you too daddy.." After she hung up, she told me that her dad had ordered some flowers, and had it delivered to the store. So I asked her how come? What about your boyfriend? She said she and her boyfriend just had a nasty breakup , so her dad was actually trying to cheer her up for Valentine's day.... There are many women I know who absolutely love and respect their fathers,husbands and other men in their lives. Many fathers I know, who would kill if someone disrespected their mothers ,wives and daughters. And yet , Some say men are just , so simple. I reject any notion of that. Men are you really THAT *simple?* | |||
