| I can act like a man - You make me feel like a man Posted: 10/5/2009 1:30:10 PM |
I can act like a man. But when I am with a woman, I feel like a man. Sorry, I've never experienced this. I just pretty much feel like myself all the time, so I can't even imagine what you're talking about. What do you feel like when you're not feeling like a man? A woman? An avocado? What?
I have heard a woman say the female version of it, and it was puzzling to me at the time, but I let it go by without pressing the issue further. Of course it seemed as if it had to do with "the sexual part", so maybe that was different than what the OPost is referring to.
So, no, it doesn't make any sense to me. Or, rather, it just sounds to me like a psycho-babble-ish way of simultaneously saying you like the other person and giving a reason why that's so. | |

He holds the umbrella and my arm it through his other arm. He unscrews the lid on the jar. He kisses me on the back of the neck. He holds me close as we dance..I feel supported, protected and special. He acts like a man and treats me like a woman and I feel treasured, special and very fem. Not hormones but the giving in a relationship. | |

As Jack Nicholson said to his co-star in "As Good As It Gets":
"You make me want to be a better man. . ." My last fishie used to say that to me. Given the cruel and heartless way he broke it off, I wonder what his idea of a better man is. Or, did he just give up on wanting to be a better man? | |

Short/short/short/short
Sometimes the correct thing can be said in a few words. | |

AND, if you haven't experienced it, I'm certainly hoping you get to...my guess is that life will take you there eventually.
Maybe I can try to explain it better from my perspective: For decades in my generation, and along with the feminist movement we sexes railed against all of the inequalities and imbalances that were considered the norm in our society. Became a "battle of the sexes" with women struggling for equality in the workplace, etc....all of that needed to happen for sure and the pendulum had to do some mighty fine and ferocious "swinging".....
In the process I think we forgot how precious the differences are between male/female. The natural human biological "wired up" difference in, yes, male and female energy. It's not just the sexual aspect at all....but, again, it certainly enhances the sexual stuff. It IS about how we ARE different. Does that help at all? My women friends don't kick up all that energy for me, only my man friends do. | |
