What do guys really want?

"Women don't know what they want!"

I know you've heard this a hundred times before, especially coming from men. So, how ironic it is that I'm finding out more and more that "Men don't know what they want either!" Can i get an Amen?! First they wanted us to be housewives and take care of home. But they got bored, cheated, and had other families on the side. Then they wanted "superfreaks", but felt like the freaks weren't good enough to meet the family or marry. After that they wanted "a lady in the streets, and a freak in the sheets"...in short they just wanted the best of both worlds. So once again we tried to be that for them 2, and what did it get us? Them being mad at us for the extra things that came along with the package. Now we're independent, self-sufficient, intelligent, well poised and sexually liberated! And what are they saying now? Thank you, you're just what I wanted?! NOOOO! Our new found identities are making many of them feel insecure and unneeded. Don't get me wrong, I'm not coming down on you guys. I just really want to know what you want or if you REALLY even know. Or is the problem that you want many things, or perhaps only parts of things? Whatever it is that you guys want, just know that you're in the same boat that we're in. So the next time you fix your lips to say that we don't know what we want, just keep yourself in mind and think that maybe we want the exact same thing that you do (whatever that is) lol.


Sincerely, Me

    I don't think it's not knowing what we want that's the problem - that's natural. It'd take all the fun out of life if we just had a blueprint that we could hold up on every first date. No, I think it's more a problem of not knowing what we want to BE.

    True, women have been adapting to the ideals of men for years - although I think that's mainly because their self-improvement has been far more widely encouraged through the media (look at any womans' magazine and front cover always contains a variation on '15 ways to make yourself more attractive'). Whereas men haven't ever really had that helping hand/shove towards change, but are now throwing themselves into learning new behaviours and ways of living. Basically, no one's happy with what they are.

    Sorry, I'm sure I had a point when I started typing that.

    Oh no, I understand what you're saying. I especially like what you wrote about not knowing "what we want to BE". Then I take it that you were saying that women have been able to change and mold ourselves especially due to each other helping with tips, but men haven't had quite the same oppurtunities for molding themselves into what women want....am i following correctly? :-)

    I can see what you are saying, but I think we are all different, wow I could say what do women really want, the world has changed, we all know that, but trying to find a balance in some one can be hard enough, I think we try and find ourselves in someone else, I hope this make some sort of sense!

IN THE SPOTLITE: LUKE JAMES

LUKE JAMES    Well, well, well I must say Luke James "I Want You" in my collection of great music. This man can sang, if you don't know you better ask somebody.   Representing New Orleans, this new found success has been a long time coming for Luke.  After a trio attempt didn't pan out, he landed the opportunity to sing backup for Tyrese, which led to a record deal for the duo 'Luke and Q'. But once again, that path was cut short. Yet, that didn't discourage him. He went on to assist in writing songs for artists such as Justin Beiber, Brittany Spears, Keri Hilson, and  Brandy.  Recently, he also appeared in Beyonce's video for "Run The World (Girls)". Now, the doors have opened again for him and this time he is going at it solo, which ultimately might be just what he needed. Luke James exudes sincerity, not only in his music but in his personality as well.  He doesn't want to just simply make songs that s...

New Segment : Poetry Corner

This is a segment where I'll showcase poetry. If you'd like your work to be featured you can hit me up on Facebook @ https://www.facebook.com/key.saunders or e-mail sincerelyme27@live.com IF I STAND AT THE TOILET TO PISS... If I stand at the toilet to piss, Does that make me a man? If I sit, does it make me less than? If I dye my hair blonde, color my eyes blue, and rob my skin of its natural brown pigmentation Will that make me Caucasian? If I don't, am I then African? If I yell "Hallelujah!" while giving up half of my check, stomach still queasy from the club the night before, Will 'He' save me? If I, being unbaptized, die while saving another's life, Is it just 'to Hell' with me? If my skin is burned from a fire and barely hanging on  for dear life, Does that make me ugly? If not, then why doesn't anyone see me? Oh they do stare, but they don't SEE me. If my body is s...

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus

Do you ever find yourself frustrated when trying to communicate with the opposite sex? At times it can seem as if we speak two different languages or as if we aren't even the same species. How are we supposed to be together if we can't even talk to and understand one another? Apparently, we are expected to at some point figure it all out, but how can we when from the time we are kids we learn to communicate differently?  Women are more focused on connections and for men all talk and little action just doesn't make sense. This ultimately leads to a lot of frustration, arguments, insecurities, and unhappiness. Has this happened to you? Is that how you landed here on this site? Or perhaps you've read books and articles explaining how the genders brains are wired differently, offering tips on how to apply the information. But if you're like me, this can still leave you unsatisfied because what if we don't want to learn to communicate differently? Or wh...
