Prologue to this article:
Yes, I’m bitching about men again. Do I have a problem? Sure, I have sore feet from wearing heels that are stupidly high. Do I need a therapist? Yes, that would be swell. Thanks.
Women have issues. Especially when it comes to men. I hear two things often:
- All men are bastards
- Can’t live with them, can’t live without them
We whine, we whinge and we complain about men being assholes. “They’re lazy! They’re smelly! They treat us like shit!” But what happens when you meet a really nice, lovely guy? Nothing. That’s the problem.
Why do women like men that are bastards? I can’t figure out the attraction of men that treat you badly and that are obviously bad for you, but still, they’re the guys I tend to fall for. The only conclusion I can draw is that they are a challenge. That’s the ticket, a “challenge”. We want a man that cooks, cleans, and treats you like a princess. But we don’t want them to do it just because they are like that, we want them to cook, clean and treat us like a princess because we trained them. Moulding – that’s what we want to do to assholes and that’s why we go for them. As much as some women don’t like to admit, we like notches on our belt. We like to be able to say to our girlfriends over coffee, “Yeah, when we first started going out he did nothing, and now I put my feet up and worships me!” Nice boys just aren’t a challenge.
What is it about men that are assholes that makes your clitoris tremble with excitement? What is it about nice guys that makes you think, “Oh, I like his smile. He has a really great personality. He’s just fine and I love his cooking!” Just one more unexplained question from the realms of the female psyche. Call in the therapist!
