Do moms give their son's bad advice when it comes to women?

[HorrorFan]

Teenage boys shouldn't be turning to their mothers for advice on how to get women. You don't ask a fish how to catch a fish, etc.

The last thing a mother wants to do is help their sons get their dicks wet. Every mother wants a respectable son that is going to be 'husband material' and have the potential for a long lasting relationship and whatnot.

So if she's giving advice to her teenage son that should be going to a guy in his 30s... at least in her mind it might help him focus on school and not get anyone pregnant until he's more stable in life.

Mothers teach their sons what is called the "Provider Sphere." IE. Respect, treat her well, financial stability, maturity, etc. Unfortunately, due to single parent families, mothers are raising boys more frequently. The life lessons boys are receiving are incomplete. Fathers teach their sons lessons from the "Lovers Sphere." It includes traits such as Honor, Character, confidence, competence, inner strength, and personal power. etc. Specifically, it teaches boys how to apply these traits when dealing with women.
Guys that are more successful with women have most likely been taught these combined traits during childhood.
So do Moms give bad advice, most likely not. They can only teach you half of the things you need. The other needs to come from a Father, or Father figure.

I have two girls and I will continue to teach them to treat everyone with respect. It's basic human decency. It's basic parenting.

There is a difference between treating someone poorly and not taking any shit.
If a woman is a brat to a guy who is respectful, she doesn't deserve his time. She is the problem, not him.
Say nothing. Walk away.

Not necessarily telling your son to respect women isn't really dating advice it's just life advice, and some advice does work some does it depends on the situation

In general, it is always a bad idea for men to take advice from women about dating and gender relations, and that includes mothers. They tend to give bad advice because they don't know what they want. Take the whole "nice guys" thing for example. DO a quick search on GAG about "nice guys" and you'll find tons of information from women about how they hate nice guys and have no respect for them. And yet those same women will tell you to treat women respectfully. Huh?

Here is the best advice your will every get about women. Don't listen to what they say; you'll be much better off if you just observe what they do.

You're using misguided women as an example of all women. The advice you mentioned will help a man find a good woman. What it doesn't help with is filtering out the misguided women. That advice takes a different form.

You make an excellent point. Women desire that aloof asshole more than the good guy. I'll tell you what works for me. Not giving a shit. I will walk away from almost any women if she pisses me off and they know it. It drives them insane.

Just get yourself to the point where you don't care and you'll be more successful and much better off. Just wear a condom and don't get any of them pregnant

I think yes , my parents especially my mum will always say that there is someone out there for me
Well 24 and still no one

[Barbaric]

Yeah. Don't take dating advice from women in general. It's always terrible even when they mean well.

For starters I don’t think a teenage boy would ever ask his mother for advice 😂

[ValleyofDrakes]

Yes.

Old shit doesn't apply today.
