After years of observation and study, I've concluded that the typical straight male goes through much — if not all — of his life quite deeply confused about why any woman would like *him* or the things he would like to do with and/or to her

Ladies, you will achieve inner peace when you realize that you have already won, and you're virtually always playing against yourself

The point I'm making here is that too many women approach relationships woth decent guys like they're negotiating an arms treaty with a foreign power presumed hostile, when in reality "I love the way you do that" is functionally a finishing move

Frankly, everything just makes a lot more sense when you start seeing most guys (with the notable exception of the truly messed up/violent/etc. ones) less as cylons and more like golden retreievers who can do math

I want to point out that while this puts a lot of torment on men, it creates a subtle responsibility for women, who are supposed to decide what they want and then somehow communicate that to men. Meanwhile, the societal playbook says "it's NOTHIN'! you don't need no man grrrrl"
