The reason why men don't voice feelings ain't because of women. And the reason why quiet men can end up ignored is just one of those things- men will go for a quiet woman as she's possibly an easier catch.
Interesting, but nowt new.
that was a quick banning!
a bit harsh too, he probably meant it in jest, cuz thats how i read it.
It's partly to do with women...a highly emotional man who cries openly, gets upset easily will put off a lot of women...vulnerability in man generally isn't seen an attractive quality...whereas a man is instinctually drawn to vulnerability in the opposite sex...it's evolutionary.
It's a statement of fact, so i don't quite see why he was banned...
Maybe you're attracted to vulnerable women, but not all men are. Most guys I know like confidence in a woman, confidence is seen as sexy.
And a lot of women don't like macho hard ass emotional men, a lot of us like the ones who you can cuddle with and talk about something other than farting and football.
And to be fair, I think anybody who gets upset and cries that easily has baggage. A lot of people who aren't co-dependent don't tnd to want that.
Vulnerability is attractive to a lot of men. It's protective instinct clearly rooted in evolution. Confidence in a woman is also good. Female confidence = good sex and also serves evolutionary purpose.
Being a "macho hard ass" doesn't preclude an emotional side too you know. A balance can be struck.
n one of us are interested in watching people run about sweating.
confident but not overpowering, more like a continual battle and making up after
