A challenge for men: raising happier sons : Comments

By Peter West, published 6/4/2017

Research by Brizendine says that men and women have a deep misunderstanding of the biological and social instincts that drive the other sex.

Hmm. Women don't understand men? she says. Brave woman.

Women will tell you what a man is, does, likes, and what he's really into, and so on.

Men may say they get annoyed by women, they get frustrated, they get fascinated, and so on. But a man who understands women? I've never met one.

Loved the one about unwelcome sports. Having developed a life long aversion to cricket following interminable hours standing statuesque in the blazing summer sun, while the "smart amount us" invested the same hours romping in the cool waters of the local river, I was cured of cricket!

Had no sons; but the way to a daughters heart is through a horse! A horse is a great investment to rid yourself of the perils of daughter-hood!

Boys are basic creatures. The best way to stuff-up a relationship with a son, is to get complicated.
Boys do stupid things. Uncomplicated things, that is until they grow hair and fall in love; suddenly the blissful ignorance of boyhood, falls into a complicated heap: And of course, it's always the girls fault!

Lack of personal responsibility is genetically implanted into boys. They learn the art from avoiding their Mothers "wroth" (archaic adjective), through early childhood!
Boys...genetically archaic. "Keep it simple stupid", fits the bill.

'God gives little girls a special gift - this is how Dad thinks, and this is how I can get him to listen./ But what about if it's a son? Boys feel they can't plead and turn on the water-works.'

Yeah, dads. The secret to raising happy sons is to keep brainwashing them that women manipulate men through turning on the waterworks - everything from getting out of the washing up to swaying the Family Court in their favour to getting 'innocent' men convicted of rape.

The secret to having your sons grow up to have meaningful relationships with women is to reinforce a prejudice in their minds that women will cry and cry and cry and cry until they get their way.

As these poor young boys must grow up to be forever manipulated by women and their devious crying ways, just keep reading to them about heroic men's tales and take them canoeing. There are an infinite number of ways to keep your sons protected from the evil machinations of crying women.

Easy, don't get married and get raped by the Feminist/Legal parasite complex. Oh and use contraception and always let them know there will be a paternity test.

Well, as we say to parents: your son will grow up and want to marry someone. Probably, a woman.
Men and women are different. That's the way the world works and that's OK. And boys will always be boys.
