HJFinAZ: I have to run, meeting to attend in a little over an hour and I need to get ready..
ONE QUESTION??????????????
Where do men learn about women when they are kids and what woman takes that little boy (teen at least hopefully) and "teaches" him.
Men keep being bashed for not knowing women but it appears that women are unwilling of to afraid to teach us.
I "could" be wrong, but that is my take on the whole relationship/sex thing..
I "WILL" be back later to see what answers come from this one. Personally, I am one man that does keep an open mind to new and improved learning skills..
Sorry HJ your question was when I was out and the pages like you said grew so fast I didn't see it.
I think that these days kids who take social science classes in secondary school here, discuss responsibility and the ins and out of relationships through roleplaying various scenarios. They certainly didn't do that in my day, so the younger generations are a bit more enlightened than we were.
There are so many more books written on the subject too from male and female perspectives so the internet is a great source of learning aobut people.
I think that in every walk of life you will get people who don't know, because they have either not been exposed to a situation or because they have no interest in it.
This happens with relationships and sex too. Some have one partner for life. Maybe they get lucky and please each other and never need to even think about it, until one of them decides to divorce or dies, then all of a sudden you have one older person who has no idea how to please another man who might have different needs, or vice versa.
I don't think it is so much that women don't want to teach men but rather that they don't know any more than men do either. Some people just like to take the easy road and presume all people are the same, when this is blatantly not the case as we see here in CS.
I think places like this are good for learning about people in an honest and safe environment though and what turns them on or off or makes them tick.
