If the words are not perfect in the way i express myself then you are telling me your words are perfect?? Why would you tell someone how to talk men do not do that to women and well lets just say women there not so perfect too.. lol

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..

Shewolf55: 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.
Hello Shewolf How are you today? Well thank you and it is a little broad but i am not by any means the only one that has this happen too i just wanted to know the reasoning and what others think.. Never hurts to have another's opinion. Thank you for your input...

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 am slightly imperfect and ill openly admit to it, i am also quite unique as i understand MEN perfectly no matter how they express themselves...
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.

Well i have been told that i should not ask women about there living arrangements because it is not a thing to ask but its ok for women to ask the same question and i was confused how it can it be ok for a women to ask but not for a man to ask this is just one example and i needed input to see what others think..

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.
