Would it bother you if your girlfriend did not know how to clean and cook?
It would not bother me if my girlfriend did not cook or clean. Well, clean, I would have a problem with for obvious hygienic reasons, as we all should regardless of sex, but I mean I wouldn’t turn her away for it. Not only that, but I’m a grown ass man. If I was looking for someone to clean up after me I would’ve looked for a cleaning lady on craigslist. Food, now that’s a different story. “The only way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” is definitely something by which we agree with, but might not always admit it. It’s not only a meal, it’s a biological principle that we all share, but differ in gender. For men it is cooking, and for women it may be protection or security. We like knowing that if we someday grew into a family that you can help me provide for our children. I mean, it’s not THAT hard to cook, as a male, I can surprise my girl with ribs, lasagna, and lots of other dishes. If I can, you can too. Damn that ramon noodle/ pb&j night crap.
Are guys intimidated by strong minded females?
I can see how men can be intimidated by strong minded women, but they shouldn’t be. I respect/am attracted to a girl who can stand her ground against me. I’m a stubborn guy, to the tee, but its only about dumb things like what I did the day before and if she can convince me I am wrong, I always correct myself. It’s something I think is cool for couples to share because it works on communication, openness and honesty. That, and its always fun when I’m right and can rub it in her face. Now, that being said, there are some girls that are overly, borderline ignorant, “strong minded” that are just too complicated to work with and are more of a drag than they are a boost to my life. There shouldn’t be much “strong minded”-ness needed in a relationship because both partners should be willing to give up for one another, rather than convince each other of something. I always try and be considerate and as empathetic as possible when listening to my girlfriend in order to understand how she feels so theres no need for there to be a fear of the wrath of a woman. Now if she’s wrong, it’s a different story, but we are too alike to disagree… it’s kinda the reason we’re together. Now for others around her, she can do her thing. That’s always a plus, just don’t flaunt it against us and we’re all good.
My boyfriend has a problem walking my yorkie because he says he looks like less of a man. Is this all men who have an issue with small dogs or just mine?
I won’t say it’s just yours, because I can vouch for a lot of my friends that would never walk a dog that size or fur type, etc. but that’s just them. I don’t care if I’m walking a flamboyant monkey handing out flowers, I’m comfortable no matter what. I’ll tease, don’t get me wrong. I have a pit bull, and she would devour any one, so teasing is a must. BUT, I wouldn’t mind any dog. But I can definitely see why some of us feel that way. Yet I know guys that are 6’2, gym lurkers that would not hesitate petting a yorkie. If anything, they’d probably use it as an ice breaker. So, it’s your man, but there are others like him, so it’s just a preference.
