HOW TO MAKE A MAN HAPPY

Subservient sex, forsake your career of his, and when he takes another lover because you neglect him, remember men need more sex than women.

Does this work for anyone else?

No, but it sounds like someone could use a hug.

Biting my tongue at the things I could say. (And suspect will be said when the early morning boys start posting.)

What you just described is a gender stereotype, and your partner might be displaying characteristics of a gender role, but I think women would like subserviant sex, a person who gives up their own goals to help their partner and someone whod let them get away with sleeping around as well. Sexual preference/gender has little to do with just having a very large ME complex.

Gets back to her Early Childhood Development, Social Development and Gender, Social Cognition and Interpersonal processes studying.

Kohlbergs preconventional level of development: moral reasoning that is based on personal benefits, self-interest, or hedonistic advantages. Should pass this level by age 13.

Piagets preoperational stage: thinking is still egocentric; has difficulty seeing the view point of others. Generally occurs between ages 2 and 7.

Social psychologists generally find that people act for individual short term interests in social dilemmas, especially where they believe the other is doing so as well.

Yeah. Whatever that all says.

Don't over-analyze her statement, kids. Unless I've missed my mark, this is old fashioned "been there/done that" sarcasm. What Lassy describes, albeit bitterly, is not an unfamiliar concept to women old enough to have experienced marriage two or three decades ago. We've come a long way, but I'd be willing to bet you wouldn't have to look all that hard to find someone for whom this *still* rings true.

*I* know what you were sayin', Lassy.

Tell him you think 7.1 channels of DTS ES would be much better and give him the remote.

Two things are becoming increasingly apparent: 1)no one takes Sociology 101 anymore and 2)appreciation of tongue-in-cheek commentary seems to be a dying art.

1. have his favorite meals at least three times a week

2. marinate his steak

3. show interest in his work before telling him about your
own

4. give him backrubs and Swedish massages

5. be sensational in the bedroom

I did take Sociology 101. I assumed Lassy was serious. Sorry, I am not as intelligent as you Float.

I'm going to be sick.

That depends on where the chocolate pudding is applied.
