What Guys Really Want In A Partner Is Super Depressing
numbers aside, what it comes down to is this. men want wives to be nothing like daughters. which is, in case you didn't get it, an impossibility. in general, men prefer daughters to be smarter, stronger, and more independent than their own wives. good thing for wives tho, we're supposed to be pretty in a way our daughters are not encouraged to be. lol.
the article does a weird guy bashing thing where it tells men to "get over it." that's rude. i imagine women feel much the same way about their husbands and sons. no one wants the short end of the stick. and most of us would prefer a spouse to be successful enough to make enough money so that we can loaf around at home all day. but you wouldn't want your son (or daughter) to marry a lazy gold digger. even tho you'd like to dig right alongside of them!
fyi, the article this article talks about is also worth a read: an insight into the 21st century man

sex for prudes
from the atlantic's The Sexually Conservative Millennial
"[Public Religion Research Institute] surveyed 2300 Americans between the ages of 18 and 35, and found that 37% think "sex between two adults who have no intention of establishing a relationship" is morally wrong." assuming this is consensual sex, WHAT?! hahaha, i can hardly believe it! i mean, i totally can, but nearly 40% seems damn high!
of my close friends, very few of us have sex as described in the situation above. i have no idea how most of my peers are sexing. but media would lead me to believe that much more than 60% of us would have thought non-committal sex was totally cool. though, of course, your thoughts on something don't always reflect in your actions.
and for the record, i'm part of the 63%. consensual sex between adults is a nearly always a good thing. do it however you want.
(can i just say, i had to rewrite these last lines a couple times. kept wanting to... generalize it. was going to say that "sex is a good thing. do it however you want." but no, it's not always a good thing. rape, for instance. so i added "consensual." but there's also statutory rape, or consensual sex between kids, so i had to add the "between adults" thing. i made one more addition and decided to stop clarifying it. blarg.)

fights
reepal believes that fights are from someone making a mistake. i believe that fights can stem from many many many more reasons, including a difference in opinion. sure, a difference of opinion should lead to discussion (as reepal said), but i think that depending on the context that difference will very frequently lead to a fight.
