    Re: Ladies, please reveal what is a "real man"?

    I consider myself to be a real man, examples...

    I do an extremely manly job, ie scaffolding.

    I try to avoid violence but if I have to I can fight like a Tiger.

    If i engage my mouth before my brain, (been known to happen once or twice), will apolagise later.

    Have a Degree, but cant spell for toffee.

    Will cry at sad films.

    Will not tolerate bullying or abuse to animals.

    Does not drink a lot, gets called a lightweight by Snow White constantly.

    Sulks like a demon and has no pain tolerance whatsoever.

    Has the patience of an annoyed Rattlesnake.

    Will have endless patience with people of a disabled nature and will always step forward to help someone in distress.

    Has a warm feeling when a hoodie youth falls off his skateboard and hurts himself.

    Thinks sex is a punishment for women and should be over as quick as possible, if said women starts to enjoy it gets all confused.

    Does not like talking about sex as gets embarrised easily.

    Very kind to small animals especially cats.

    I think it's more likely he's getting angry because his post has been misread or misinterpreted.

    Is you degree in "Women's Studies?" And since Trouble has recently been a little "disabled" and in some "distress", would she agree?

    Apart from that I would certainly put you high on a list of real men !

    Nonsense ! There's a frog for every princess.. Sometimes you find out that it's really just a toad, and sometimes you just get warts but you gotta keep kissing those frogs.

    Life's too short to spend it by yourself .. and locking yourself in the highest tower in a castle surrounded by thorns just means that it's harder for the right handsome frog prince to fight his way through to you..

    (hmm.. methinks I've been watching WAAAY too much Shreck recently)

    Thank you fletch

    This is the bit I wanted to prove. Fletch is 28 years old and says she has never met a real man. That's because they don't exist!

    What women think is a "real man" has nothing to do with reality. And all the time women are looking for and waiting for a "real man" they are doomed to remain single and a bit annoyed with the men they meet. And men will, eventually, tire of being compared to this ideal and retreat to the pub, or the river bank or the football stadium, etc.

    So girls, is it time to wake up and smell the coffee? Who is the weakest link? The men for being as real as nature made them? Or the women who complain that men aren't "real"? Perhaps it's time to get in touch with the "real" reality rather than one that you've made up - fletch says it simply doesn't exist! Learn to love men for what they are, stop moaning, and live a happy and satisfied life.

    I have to be very carefull how I respond to this or I will get another 3 infractions.

    I'm just feeling very let down at the moment, I would love to love a man for what he is, but if he isn't what your looking for, don't we have the right to say, thank you, you lovely but not for me long term? is that to much to ask?

    I'm not looking for perfect, i'm not perfect, but I do belive I deserve the right to choose.

    If you lower your expectations and make the best of whatever man you end up with you can try and change him in subtle and little ways.

    Do not try to change him too much or he will get the hump and back off quicker than an Italian Tank in battle.

    There are loads of single women who want a man but have a list of things they want him to be, better to be snuggled up to a not so perfect man than a perfect Teddybear.

    if there is a fundamental part of there personality that you can't live with tell them, if they continue to do what ever it is you can't live with, you have to come to the conclusion, there are never going to change, put up with it or and make a decision accordingly.

    I am firm believe in giving everyone a second chance, when it comes to three and four times, you either give in, there not going to change or you move on...if your allowed!

    Re: Ladies, please reveal what is a "real man"?

    Lazy boy, from the brilliant album 'TV' have a song called 'Man Woman (Ying&Yang)', sung by both a man and a woman. Quite apt here methinks.

    Women without a man is nothing
    Without her, man is nothing

    Women have their faults
    Men only have two
    Everything they say and everything they do

    Men who have pierced ears are better prepared for marriage
    They’ve experienced pain
    And have bought jewelry
    Women have two weapons
    Cosmetics and tears

    I’m a perfect house keeper
    Every time I leave a man I keep his house
    No women has ever hated a man
    Enough to give him back his diamonds

    Why don’t women blink during foreplay?
    They don’t have time

    Men forget everything
    Women remember everything

    A girl can wait for the right man to come along
    But it doesn’t stop her from having fun
    With all the wrong ones in the mean time

    The real reason why it’s so difficult to find men
    Who are sensitive, caring and good looking?
    Is because they all have boyfriends already

    A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend
    A successful women is one who can find such a man

    Women driver really means
    Someone who doesn’t speed, tailgates, swear, make obscene gestures
    And has a better driving record than men have

    It’s a guy thing really means
    Irrational, illogical, stupid and extremely low

    Oh don’t fuss I just cut myself, its no big deal
    Really means
    I’m about to die but before I die
    I want you to remember me as a strong proud man
    Who never cries

    If you want to learn more about women
    Watch sex in the city
    If you want to learn more about men
    Take a good look at Homer Simpson

    The difference between light and hard
    Is that men can sleep all night, with a light on

    Both agree and disagree with this DTS - it's a matter of degree of compromise. How much is either party willing to miss out on the things they want to be with someone/anyone? Some things won't matter too much, others are huge. Not sharing a certain hobby (e.g. dancing) probably isn't going to be a dealbreaker, so long as both parties are happy that one of them goes out and does it on their own (but I suspect a lot of non-dancing men might not be happy about their partner doing this), but something like the desire to get married or have children are the big things that shouldn't be compromised on.

    I've always held the view, however, that it's better to be on your own than to be with someone who is wrong for you. That's meant that I've spent vast swathes of my adult life single, but having the best time that I can on my own. Most of the men that I went out with in that time rejected me, rather than the other way around (so don't tell me that I'm too fussy!). I got fed up of this pattern and decided to remain on my own... and then Beo came along...

    Now neither of us are perfect - thank god! (I leave the top off the toothpaste, and he mutters things that I can't hear and am always having to ask him to repeat himself.) But we get along just fine and I wouldn't be without him despite not being able to envisage anyone else living in "my" flat before he moved in.

    Re: Ladies, please reveal what is a "real man"?

    Could not agree more with you sweetie. You must both agree to try and change some things while other things may never change.

    Trouble has changed me for the better since we have been together and I have changed certain things about her. We annoy the hell out of each other but we compromise on things which are important to us both.

    However when we are in our own flats we both miss each other like hell.
