Perhaps it's just that your communication style is a little difficult to understand? When someone has to read twice what you've written to get the gist of what you're trying to say then perhaps you need to consider putting in periods where they belong and maybe a comma or two.

The whole idea is to be able to communicate so that the other person can understand you. I think lack of communication skills can be equally bad for both men and women. I've seen it here many times where you can't figure out what the heck the person is trying to say.

As well, unless the person made the comment to cause you hurt - take it as constructive feedback so that you can improve your skills set.

To make the assumption that women view men as being unable to communicate effectively is incorrect. There are many intelligent men who are quite eloquent in their writings as well as speech - equally said there are plenty of women who fall into that same category.

Well thank you for your observation but i speak very well.. Some how ladies think men should be more questioning and not so direct in our speech but as men will tell you well i think they will we are direct and its our nature we soften the tone as much as possible but hey we are men..

Not all men talk the same way and not all ladies try to change them.

Your complaint seems too broad to me. I, however, wouldn't dream of telling you to change...even if you don't make any sense. devil

You puzzle me, what makes you assume that women want to tell you what to say?
In my short life I cannot ever think of a time when I was told how or what to say other than by my mother, can you expand on your argument?

I agree that eloquence has great value but having something substantial to say is of equal or greater value. You said how difficult it is to understand his writing. That may be correct however, in the same way, it's more difficult to find gold concealed in the sand than scat found on the surface.
Everyone has something of value to share.

If a man that I didn't know just approached me and asked if I lived alone I would be thinking that he's up to no good.Nor would I ever ask the man the very same question.I think there's certain questions that's acceptable to ask others and some questions that aren't.

As far as you being told that you shouldn't be asking whether women live alone and women who are asking men.The same ole double standards thingy comes to mind.laugh

Only time I'd EVER ask a woman about her "living situtation"
is when I was getting ready to stalk her..
I like to be well prepared..blushing
