Just too darned funny not to post. I found this article on the web, and had to share. If you have an issue with the male crab, maybe this article will explain why:
(BTW, author's name is: Hazel Dixon-Cooper) -- I have other posts in other signs.
The first thing you'll notice is his genuine, and adorable, smile. The Cancer man is sweet, chivalrous, and has a wonderfully off-beat sense of humour that can be downright loony. He is sentimental, sensual, and truly affectionate. He is a traditionalist who respects the proprieties of courtship, believes in family and forever, and he's absolutely the best snuggle-bunny in the universe.
You may see an ideal mate, but what you get is an ideal stalker. A male Crab's idea of devotion is bonding at the hip, so unless you are prepared to become his Siamese twin, run in the opposite direction as fast as possible. In bed he is tender, but so passive that you'll soon tire of always being on top.
His devotion is legendary. However, don't say 'I do' until you understand that this extends to every friend and relative he's ever had, especially mother. It's not above him to wait until the honeymoon to tell you she's coming to live with you as soon as you return.
He's subjective. His favourite game is 'Guess How I'm Feeling'. You will be expected to read his mind, sense his moods, and mend his fragile ego, all without benefit of knowing what has upset him. Don't worry. Everything upsets him. Forget to buy toothpaste, and he'll decide you don't love him anymore. Say you want a night out with the girls, and he'll expect divorce papers in the morning.
Conversely, he will be so blind to your feelings that you will soon find yourself thinking of ways to escape. Try talking rationally, and he will become morose and over-emotional. He's so preoccupied with his own sensibilities, and his basic character is so convoluted, that he simply can't believe you don't feel exactly as he does on every issue. He's as moody as the female Crab, and punishes any perceived slight by retreating into his metaphorical shell so he can have a good old pout.
The male Crab is as paranoid about security as the Bull but, in a financial crisis, will expect you to do all that nasty stuff like making a budget or working two jobs to ensure the family's future. He'll be too ill with a case of stressed-induced acne to show his face in public.
He will stop at nothing to get you to agree with his point of view, even if it's only on the best flavour of ice cream. Anything less is total rejection. First, he will explain in excruciating detail why pecan is better than walnut. Next, he'll try his lost boy look to win your acquiescence. If neither tactic works, he will sigh, say he's not hungry, and sit brooding in front of the TV. You better be prepared to either give in or live in silence. Before you gratefully choose the latter, remember silence to a Crab is punctuated with long, mournful sighs, minor to major groans, and frequent whimpering mutters.
A prime example of a male Crab in action is King Henry VIII. When Henry wanted to divorce his first wife, Catherine (a Sagittarius), to marry Gemini Anne Boleyn, you would think that he would have said, 'So be it'. Instead, in typical Cancer style , Henry tried to ensure that everyone in the kingdom agreed with him. He dragged out the barge, visiting his royal advisors up and down the Thames. He petitioned the Pope for an annulment; even encouraged Catherine to say their marriage was never consummated.
No Sign is Safe/ But Cancer Men-- this one jeers you pretty good. Please take with a grain of salt, and laugh-- I don't necessarily take the opinion of the author:
When Catherine refused, he locked her in the Tower of London. When the Pope refused, King Crab created the Church of England, installing himself as its secular head. Through alternating displays of temperament and torture, he s
Ok, I read the MISC site/ "Is the woman who wrote this bitter". I didn't realize it had already been posted.
Do you think she's dated every man from every zodiac to write this article, or maybe she just ran a study? She has an entire line of books that trashes zodiac after zodiac. I like her style of writing.
I actually wish there was a same style article written about "Dating the woman".. -sTD o_O;

He's a Cancer. I'm a Scorpio. It's been a year and a half. I love him, but he makes me crazy. He is standoffish about his feelings, never revealing anything more than he feels is needed. Says I should just "know" that he loves me. I try to talk to h
I have not been here due to more problems with my computer, but I am up again.
I am now free of the cancer I loved so much, as he was quite the deciever. First of all he drove my damn new car when it was still on a non operational registration
What I'm looking for is feelings on the subject. Hard to express, hard to get past. Where is the breaking point. Does he see things I don't. Just what is he looking for at this point?
I'm an aries... and yes I've fallen madly, truly deeply for this gorgeous cancerian, I know he isn't for me but he keeps sending me these 'signals', my question is, how do I capture this guy's heart and let him know that i like him without scaring him awa
I recently started this job and met this virgo. sorry to say he is married but unhappily. I know he is very interested and i am too. But his is married. we decided to stay just friends but i don't think i can handle just friends and neither can he. he
I met a Cancer when I was walking down on the waterfront by the ocean one of my favorite places. And from the moment I saw him we couldn't take our eyes off eachother. Then he approached me and we had the best day ever! The thing is he lives kinda far awa
From what I have gathered Aquarius and Cancer must be a difficult match. I am married to a Cancer woman and boy does that moon pull her moods around. Sometimes I don't know if I'm coming or going when I'm around her. As it is it's hard enough with my own
