Men are not always the most communicative of species and even the hottest most out there ones (with their mates) can be shy or have difficulty taking about this kind of stuff...\n\nIn general though men vote with their feet.. if he's with you thats where he wants to be...

Other countries may have different customs.  Some women may feel like it's their duty to their husbands.  Some men are more considerate of a woman's feelings and needs and they are more attentative.

lol even tho ive never witnessed this i think its mostly because women r shy to talk with other men so they stick with their friends and hope that one of their friends will make the first move to talk to some other people. also like they probably talk to each other because that culd have been the plan go out and have fun whereever they r and talking to their friends. if u want to talk to one then go up to them and chat ;-)

its not just your guy nor is just guys, some women dont listen either. its called selective deafness, they only hear what they want to hear, next time he asks you to do something pretend you didnt hear, he will soon get the message.

This. Is. A. No-brainer.\n\nGirls definitely have it harder in numerous ways. \n1) They have to go through certain times of the month which are painful, annoying, and just urrggh! \n2) They have to go through nine months of physical struggle and childbirth. \n3) In most societies, women are the ones who take care of children, the house, and everyone's lifestyle. This means doing most of the chores, cooking, cleaning, groceries.\n4) We are definitely urged by the media and our peers to always look our best. "Looking our best" can be such a hassle. It's  not fair that we have to shave, wax, do eyebrows, and be conscious of every single body part, while men are just happily sitting admiring. \n5) Also to point out to someone's above post that men work their butts off while women are just sitting around, I would like to say that there are SO many women out there who juggle a career as well as a family. It is very difficult for them (I know, seeing my mom) and if they have a lazy husband, that is only worse. \n6) Which brings me to my next point - I think that (some) girls have been brought up to comply with whatever is ordered, and when they are ordered, they are still very compliant and meek. Some cannot stand up to their own husbands. That's another neg. about girls, sometimes we're not as tough.\n\nI think it's very sad.

Maybe its the "communication thing"...\n\nYou say that SOME women are like that and thats true - not all of them are. So ask the nagging woman whats wrong with her and you will find out!\n\nAnd then you can make things right and then you will live in harmony with the not so nagging woman! (hopefully)

Men do. They are the ones that have to make all the moves. Well some women except them too. Things may have changed for the younger people. In all men have it harder.

We are more open to sex and talk about sex with each other. The act of sex literally is what separates us from the straight community. And thusly a topic more discussed. Men are more sexual conquerers than women are. So while not ideal. If there is honest dialog and safe sex is practiced. And if probelms occur and issues can be talked about honestly. Most of the problems are gone.\n\nStraight couples, the man would be mortified to even bring it up for fear of the reaction. If brought up, I'm assuming the reaction wouldn't be good, but if it is good and honest dialog (blah blah blah- same rules) then there is minimal issues.\n\nSo honesty and dialog are the key. Men are more sexual and can be more honest with each other...in my opinion.

I hate to say this but I hate it when one person speaks for all. ALL WOMEN are different the same as all men are different. I am a woman who looks for the sensitivity in a man as I appreciate that. I do believe as a society we have come to look at emotions as being a weak thing but I don't agree. I can agree with self resolve though too. The answers are within and we must seek to find them. No one is an authority over us so why run to other people as if they are.

Hi luv!\n\nBecause we accept our emotions, and deal with them instead of ignoring them and repressing them.\n\nIf men would be more open and honest about themselves and their own feelings and emotions, I am sure men & women would get along alot better!

women are more relationship oriented. We are wired to talk and have deep conversations. That is how we bond and feel close to a person. Men, however, bond by DOING. So often it is "out of sight, out of mind" for them. They will feel close and intimate when they see you and can interact with you. They may think about you when you are not there, but it's not the same sit by the phone and wait mentality. What can you do? Try to explain how you feel. Tell him what I told you. it took my husband awhile to catch on, but now he makes more of an effort to try. You can try by not flipping out every time he doesn't call you, and try to understand that it doesn't mean he doesn't love you.  \n\nI understand I am generalizing, and apologize for that. Not every woman is that way, and not every man is that way, but that is how it tends to be for the majority of the population.

Sometimes women like to get people to care about them. If you actually do things for them, they really appreciate it. If they don't you will have to let them know how you feel about it. You might say that men needs care too but women are more fragile in the sense that they're not as mature as some men even if I say so myself. Women is just hard to understand so you have to take time to get to know them better. That's just life.

It depends on the person. Scientifically men and women generally use different parts of their brain. Women are better at multitasking. Men generally do one thing at a time. On the average men do not involve their emotions, as much. Sometimes women have a hard time seperating thinking logically from thinking with their heart. Men and women together balamce each other.

Many men do not have social skills enough to open up in conversation.  They keep a lot of things inside and women talk too much....)(
