It's my Theory.

Excerpt from a conversation I had a with an old friend this evening. It's high time to formally put it down. Expect amendments at a time when my brain hasn't full of partial sums.

"It's different for every woman. But you know that thing guys like to say about women liking assholes? I have a theory about that.

This, I could write a book about. I might someday. Who knows. I'm still doing research =P

At any rate, the theory goes like this:

Our generation has the unfortunate fate of growing up with generally crappy models of manhood and womanhood. The media alone does enough damage. But then you consider our parent's divorce rates, the feminist movement, the me-generation: Basically, we've been screwed out of good role-models.

And I'm not saying there aren't exceptions, but generally speaking)

So, here we are, twenty-somethings, and we've got a generation of women who think that the only way a man can lead an dominate is to act like a jerk and the only way to get that man is to whore yourself out

AND

we have young men who are, as my friend Eric likes to say, gun-shy: they don't know HOW to approach women or what they really need, because it was never illustrated to them.

Because, contrary to belief, the emotional support trumps the sex and money."
