Marriages, friendships, and business relationships are destroyed due to men and women not understanding the differences that make us unique. In our pride we usually think that we are shining example of what is right and we expect everyone to act as we do and like what we like, but this is fantasy, not fact.
One man said, "I know I'm not ever going to understand women. I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax, pour it onto your leg, rip the hair out by the root, and still be afraid of a spider." HAHAHAHA! Great!!:-)
Let's look at some other ways men and women are different from each other:
Women offer unsolicited advice and give direction, but men usually don't take advice very well. The woman thinks she is just trying to help, but the man thinks she doesn't trust him to make the right decision.
When a woman disagrees with a man he takes it as disapproval and it ignites his defenses. Men only want advice after they have done everything then can do. Advice given too soon or too often causes him to lose his sense of power. He may become lazy or insecure.
Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated when they feel cherished.
Men are visual creatures; once an image is in their head, it's hard to get it out. Women are more inclined to remember emotions or how something made them feel.
Men tend to go into their cave and want to think about what is bothering them, but women want to talk about what's bothering them. When a man and woman have had a problem and the man is ready to reconnect, the woman waits for him to initiate a conversation about what upset him. However, he doesn't need to talk about his upset feelings because he is no longer upset. He wants to forget it and move on, she wants to talk about it and make a list of ways they can avoid having it happen again.
In one survey, more than 80% of men, four out of five, said that in a conflict they were likely to feel disrespected. Women, on the other hand, would feel unloved.
Because a woman's vocal cords are shorter than a man's, she can actually speak with less effort than he can. Shorter vocal cords not only cause a woman's voice to be more high pitched, but also require less air to become agitated, making it possible for her to talk more with less energy expended.
Communication experts say that the average woman speaks more than 25,000 words a day while the average man speaks only a little over 10,000. One business executive said, "The problem is, that by the time I get home from work I have already spoken my 10,000 and my wife hasn't even gotten started."
Men are simple... women are not simple and they always assume that men are just as complicated and intricate as they are. The whole point is that guys don't think deeply all the time like women do. See?! That's why women are not simple, because they tend to think deeply! But men are just what they appear to be.
Women want to be loved, respected, valued, complimented, listened to, trusted and sometimes, just to be held. Men want tickets for the World Series! HAHAHAHA! That's crazy and funny!
Women want affection, men want sex.
Most women cry an average of five times per month. Women are simply more emotional than men. Men are very logical.
Understanding does make all the difference in the world. Read a couple of good books on the differences between men and women and also one on the differences in personalities. It will give you insight and understanding that can prevent thousands of arguments and misunderstanding.
