We are definitely different creatures.

Such as men need to have a sense of worth. By
feeling needed. (a provider per say)

But women wants to feel cherished. Its hard for some
men to meet such a high expectation. Doesn't seem like
a tall order to woman. But our minds are very complex.
Known as thinkers. Perfectionists to a point. Even if only
on the mental plain. Too much information for men to
take in at any given time. Woman also tend to think
outside of the box quite often.

In My experiences...
Men are more into more simply lines of communication.
Unlike a woman, we have to almost dissect every part
of the problem or topic that is chosen to discuss.

Another example would be, a man will take on a task
and finish that one task. Then move on to the next.
However, a woman will take on multiple tasks. Maybe
even do a little of each until all is completed. Sometimes
I feel the mind of a man would be a much more relaxed
one to have.
Mine races around from thought to thought
too much sometimes.


Certainly they dont have to worry about nail polish , waxing , heels and ohh the gossip giggle

No, it's the generalisations and perpetuations that get to me.

There's more seperation than there is coming together as a population from all the BS that we spread. Men and women are NOT from two different planets, we're not after two different things, we're in this together and the sooner we all realise this the better.Like I said, maybe I'm fucked.


I do understand what you are saying. We are after the same
things, never said that. But the way we get to and handle what
we are after is different is all. Talking about the differences in the
way we communicate our feelings, thoughts etc. We can still be
after the same things. handshake

I do agree.. that they are after the same end result (usually).. but I do think men and women are very different in their approaches.. as a rule anyway.. Men like you chaps on this thread.. are in the minority I think. The majority of men don't like talking about feeling and emotions.. and struggle to understand their own let alone a womens. imo.

I am thinking like Kid said we all want the same things.

And Hugs made this lovely point in the beginning .. that if many men would be more communicative and if women would adjust and no complain at times when they werent .. we could compromise that way..

Thats so cool.

But .. Maybe its too bright to do on a daily basis .. giggle

G'day I'm just frustrated with the perpetuation of all the myths and BS that's been handed down for generations. Most believe it's all true.


If it's any consolation I'm with you. People are individuals whether male of female and although brain size and usage may appear different, that has been proven recently not to be true. Brain size is all about body size. The capabilities for every kind of thought and emotion are equally in both.

Conditioning, nurture as opposed to nature is responsible for the myths about men and women being different, perpetuated by the media and how they want us to think.

When it comes right down to it we all laugh cry at the same things, get the groceries, complain about money, use it the same ways, even sexual appetites are the same overall. There will aways be the exceptions, but generally that is down to background and nurture again and to the fact that we are individuals with different sets of experiences.

well that might just be the people they surround themselves with or the partners they choose.

I have a male married friend.. who is very 'in touch' with his feelings.. he is very kind and thoughtful.. but his wife is a COW.. she picks at him constantly for his feelings.. In that situation, the boot is definitely on the other foot... as she would never talk about her feelings, just shouts and complains a lot. So sometimes is just 'people'. dunno

I thought it was OCD,

A condition characterized by recurrent, repetitive thoughts (obsessions), behaviors (compulsions), or a combination of both.

I suddenly feel the need to do something, could paint them for ya.
