Life's big picture

As I ponder what it is that each gender wants in a partner, I cannot help but think that there are going to be inevitable conflicts within the opposite gender we seek.

Are we destined by life to be partners? I would say yes. We need to reproduce to be life...otherwise life itself would no longer exist. In order to create life, we need to partner up.

So therefore, we need to pick a partner we wish or want to procreate with.

For a woman, she desires security. That could be a tall guy. That could be a wealthy guy. That could be a well adapted socially intelligent guy. That might be a physically strong guy. The list goes on. Many (if not all) women want all of these traits in the guy they choose to reproduce with.

The problem is, God did not design all men in such a way to satisfy all women. If all men were tall, there would be no tall men. There needs to be short men in order to have tall men. If all men were physically strong, there would be no strong men. There needs to be physically weak men in order for there to be strong men. .....and so on and so on.

The same can be said about men's desires with the woman he wants to reproduce with....she is to be young, she is to be healthy looking (hair & breasts). She is to be of an agreeable nature. She is to be nurturing.

Not all women are these traits.

So why did God create such variations of humans?

Maybe the answer to that question has to do with Life's Big Picture.

Perhaps our purpose.

Remember, we need to partner up to have life in the first place. Need....

Maybe we are here to test our ego, to test our vanity, to test our level of selfishness.....how much will we bend to our personal desires? Will we bend to our personal desires to the point where we will eliminate ourselves...deny life; thus, deny ourselves?

Man's foresight is vain if only connected to shallow thoughts. The me me syndrome will destroy us allfrustrated
"Life's big picture" Most here are in the last 15 minutes of the film Johnny, so much of what you are saying shouldn't apply and it should get easier, but look how hard it is. How about Nice and Trustworthy? I'd be happy with that. Oh yeah and good in bed! Almost forgot. grin cheers
And it's a bit of a modern myth that women didn't work or fancy the men they were sleeping with until the 1960s. Perhaps rich women before the 1960s were like that and that's who the future takes after. Still not actually true, of course women fancied men before the 1960s.
CC a good point of reference might be animal husbandry.Some persons are naturally prolific and from there you might discover animal parentry is equally valid to them.
rolling on the floor laughing I was thinking of George Foreman and all the little Georges.
Men can be unique!
Solution; we all settle for pretty much anyone.
Hello March,

I would not just isolate it to men.

Both men and women have predictable natures to themselves.

These natures can be exploited....exploited to a point where both men and women become less than favorable to each other.

Therefore, it is not just men, but both men and women.


Okay, we are at the point where it is both men and women.


How did we get to this point today...where men have issues with women and women have issues with men?

Did it just occur randomly within men and women on an individual level? Or, did it occur on more of a widespread level...say for example, through messages we received from others? ...oh, say through our television screens, books, or internet?

How do television screens, books, and internet get into our lives? We as just regular people were given these. By who? Is it fair to say, whoever gave us this stuff, has a certain level of control over it? At very minimum, the ability to spread a message through these forms of information we consume?

I think us humans are fairly simple. We want to live...simple. For us to live, we need to be in an environment that allows us to live. An environment of love, acceptance, tolerance, and prosperity is easier to survive in than one of hate, chaos, and division.
Thank you Patty....all valid points you make there. thumbs up

Just one more thing, there are only so many 6 foot-4 inch highly attractive extremely wealthy men that exist out there. So, "settling" is inevitable....otherwise, a single life will ensue.

"Settling" = unhappy relationship for men and women.


The essence of this whole blog.
I prefer the old Janis Joplin song saying "get it while you can"...as we grow older...laugh
