A Man Should Be Able To...

A Man Should Be Able To...


Reading a blog, this morning, about how men on this site don't know the first thing about women got me thinking about the old standard of what men should be able to do. I find Robert Heinlein's classic quote to be a bit ambitious. It says "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

I have my own list, which after reading the aforementioned blog post, had one item added that truly makes sense (at least to me) and is quite applicable in the FriendFinder-x context.

A man should be able to:
- Change a flat tire - seriously, do you want to look like a pansy in front of the cute girl in your car?
- Drive a manual transmission - yes, it's still a valid skill and you're not a man if you can't use a clutch
- Cook well enough to sustain himself - I'm not referring to whipping up a souffle or coq au vin but at least be able to make bacon and eggs, mac & cheese (box is fine), and the like.

And my recent addition:
- Seduce a woman - If you've never made a woman desire you, you're not a man. Knowing what a woman wants and needs (and being able to properly respond with how you'll satisfy each of them) will ensure you're never lonely. This applies to whatever a woman is seeking at the moment, whether it be hot NSA sex or something more.

And, to the point - why is the ability to seduce a woman particularly important on FriendFinder-x? This has been covered before, ad nauseam, but let's try a different tack and think like a guy. Let's say the ratio was reversed on FriendFinder-x so that there were 100 women for each man. You get dozens of emails per day, offering to fuck your brains out. How do you pick the ones that you'll let into your bed? Sure, you'd grab the hottest ones (if you were dumb because hot doesn't equate to good in the sack, but that's another blog post) but, if you were smart, you'd likely pick the ones who seemed like they'd rock your world the most.

As an illustration, you've narrowed your Saturday night debauchery to two women. But all you have to go on are photos, their profiles, and their first email.
Woman A - Bombshell hot, vapid profile, and her email said 'Wanna fuck? HMU'
Woman B - Nice looking, profile that tells you what turns her on, and her first email told you what she wanted to do to you in just the right way.

If you're smart (or think like most women), you'll go for B. And let's face it, women tend to not be stimulated by visual cues as much as men so your good looks aren't going to save the day, if you can't seduce a woman; at least on here.

Now man up and get off my lawn.

And smart guys love that. Tell me what turns you on; what you want. Some men view that as bossy; I see it as making us both satisfied.
