What women want from men..

I was re-watching a great french comedy called "The Visitors" and it came to me then...
What women want from a man--no, it's not money or someone to care for them...

I can't speak for all women -- I know this but I can relate to one sentiment all women have so what a woman wants from a man is chivalry. Yes, chivalry. A real man who can stand up to all the aversities in life--be it a bully, a nasty neighbor, a mean boss, a mugger about to snatch your purse--you know what I mean. A guy with a spine! One who shows bravado and means it, with out trying to impress.
Watch Jean Reno in the Visitors and you'll know what I mean..

phew!! that one almost made me go to the visuals...
roger that slone! and if he's cute to boot..he's a- ok!!

aww..c'mon..that doesn't hurt any..does it?

i can spell 'sloane!'

So all women want a man like janet reno?

Tee hee hee James--good one. Never thought of that but no, Jean Reno PRONOUNCED ZHAN REE-NO, is a famous french actor--he was in the Big Blue and The Specialist (??). A viral, sexy man. He's just an example.

CORRECTION: Okay, after sifting through the IMDB, Jean Reno was not in the Specilalist, he was in a film called the Professional. You may remember him in Mission Impossible (1st one) and Ronin.

I know what you are saying I saw him in ronin with robert denero and in the perfessionals. ask your self what do men want from a good woman besides ass.

Big tits.

they want devotion, trust, intelligence, sense of humor, class, and most of all: knows how to understand men, or actually listens.

women who understand and yet firmly straight out tell men what they are thinking in their minds are winners since men want everything 'white and black' 'straightfoward' no secrets.

*ahem*

or atleast that is what my boyfriend wants, any real men out there have anything to say?

oh wait, there is none.

just playing 🙂

Well shoot! Why the hell don't I have a boyfriend? I tell it like it is--no hidden agenda with me, no sir-eee. I'm very straightforward--I hate it when someone isn't upfront with you. They say yes when they really mean "no". A lot of women tend to do this but I think one quality that all men want in a woman is discretion. Being able to keep a secret.

depends on what 'secret' you're talking about, i'm talking about feelings on a particular situation because i dont think any man likes women throwing tamptrums and bringing up stuff that was in the past, women are like computer files, we save and never forget, then we explode.

Yeeeppp, ya got that right. But just general discretion--knowing when to keep a tight lip about things that are personal or financial. That sort of thing.

well sloane, when you meet a guy that you hold interest for, what do you do? shy away and make him come to you or do you approach him?

Luz..I approach him. Why do you ask?

just wondering since you seem dissapointed at the fact that you dont have a boyfriend..lol anyway, dont know whats up with that subject but be happy ^^

I HAD a boyfriend and like everyone else in relationships--it dissapated, although amicably. No big deal. Why do I get a strong impression that you are judging me? (Another female trait)

errrrrr lol no. I'm not judging you, i dont know how that brought up but it seems like you're making assumptions because of something that might(keyword here: might) be troubling you these days so that is why my statement made you question?(another female trait: over analyzing or i might be right). Anyway, and i never said you didnt have a boyfriend, just thought you needed to 'talk' about it since you were putting so emphasis on not having one. Se la vi!

Actually, both of you agree. Sloan believes in keeping things private, between 2 people, no public laundry. I also like the traits you mention Luz, "class, devotion, and actually listening". It's true, as compared to women, men want it spelled out. We're also very visual, whereas women are much more emotive. (I did not say "emotional".)

Well Luz, it's the way you question or the way or style of your responses. They sort of rubbed me the wrong way a bit. If you went back and read what you wrote, it comes across as a bit inquisitive and/or judgemental. For example...you wrote

"just wondering since you seem disappointed at the fact that you don't have a boyfriend..lol"

I idea that you added the "lol" gives me an impression of slight meanspiritedness. Or, and I can be openminded to mistakes, perhaps you were just trying to be facitious?

In other words..what's funny about that?

k....

i didt think it's funny, it's more like a friendly laugh, nothing serious.

Okay.

I guess...

perhaps if i put the face "^^" behind the "lol", this would have never happened? -_-' anyway, just a misunderstanding~ gtg later.

The aliens from the spaceship got to you, huh?

(just teasing)

Maybe the title of this should be "What Sloane wants in a man". But you could probably get more views with the original one anyway.

Naah I wouldn't title it that way--I'm not self absorbed. it was just something that came to me after seeing a preview for a movie.

I thought you're post made this thread really thoughtful sloane!..I like your style ..😉I've never really known what I'd wanted in a man in the past, but I always knew that whenever the right guy came along, i'd just know-by intuition?? 🙂If that makes any sense.. I guess.. i don't know.. what I want in a man right now..is just a deep first friend in whom I can unqestionably trust, and who'd be supportive of the way I feel sometimes too.. someone who'd be really open and honest with the relevant details, not just the mindless ones..someone who's fun and sweet, and doesn't mind my quirks..😄
am i making any sense?? thought i was making too many demands again..

but sometimes you just can't lose with being really clear about your expectations... I've been told before that I expect the unexpected (the impossible) so much.. but i just have so much hope that it is possible.. I don't think this is being unreasonable... you be the judge..

whoa..just went back and read all of the posts this time..there is no pun or hidden agenda in my posts against either of you (sloane and luz).. picked up the thread as it was in the beginning..just wanted to clear stuff up in case anyone's wondering...ok..i'm nuts now 😛

No sloane was right big tits.

LOL

hmmmm.

I was kidding about the big tits comment. Just being silly. Jaya don't worry, you're not nuts.

No sloane you were right, thats all men want, I can tell you. When I am in the pub if a woman is around we talk sports. No woman in sight we talk big tits, we are crazy about them , we dream about them, when you see us with a book we are not reading we are thinking about them ./ you got us , you hit it on the head.

James, if a woman came into the pub with a T-shirt that said: "Suck My left One", would that cause an uproar in a male dominated pub?

I think that would be funny.

Come to think of it--that would be a total Benny Hill skit. I can see it.

By the way James, I am Aquarius rising also. (I read your bio info).

Agreed. She'd be swarmed. Moths to a flame.

Regarding T-Shirt post.

Best t shirt I ever saw was in the states it said if you like my mountians you should see my busch. It was beer but you know.

Why a beer company decided to name thier beer "BUSCH" I don't know...it's beyond me.

But James, I'll take a cup of bold, fully flavored tea any day over a beer--being the lady that I am. :0}

About the beer, family name, I imagine. You know.. like Smuckers. (Does that Sound like you want to eat that?)

Whisky the water of the gods.

what do women really want—?
