How do women define a 'good man' in today's society?

How do women define a 'good man' in today's society? And if you’re a man, do you approve of the way women define a ‘good man’?

[Curmudgeon]

The problem is that the definition of "a good man" by the popular LeftMedia is a very convoluted and contradictory one, and one that hardly any man could meet:

Well, YouTube is age restricting this, so let me quote an excerpt:

"But a more interesting answer to the question of "Where have all the good men gone?" is another question: Just exactly how do we define "good" in this equation? And what *is* it that the women want?

It seems like a long list, but my admittedly incomplete understanding is that what women want is: a creature of approximately man shape, broad shoulders, tall, well-dressed, with a nice car, a high figure salary, good teeth, cool hair, and all of the Alpha characteristics to make him a conqueror and a leader of men.

Except -- he also needs to bow and scrape and be the selfless self-sacrificing lapdog to his woman.

Except -- when he's supposed to be dominant -- but not too dominant, and also read her mind -- but only when he's supposed to!

The rest of the time he must remain confused and in need of feminine guidance at all times, and have a great big cock, etc.

I could go on, but I think you get the picture -- it should be fairly obvious that men trying to conform to this list would be both exhausting and futile. Even switching around the criteria I've provided as
examples for other, even stupider, criteria, some variation of a list like this is constantly implied in women's magazines, daytime talk shows, soap operas, romantic comedies, self-help books, and everywhere else that flattering women can earn somebody a buck."

Also needs to totally financially support her and buy her anything she wants.

[Curmudgeon]

@msc545 yep... 🤑

A good man will always end up "dumped and in pain" because the majority of today's women are like timed bombs, you don't know when they suddenly explode...

[msc545]

Truth

Thanks for the mho

As everything there are 2 sides. The liberal defines a beta, I mean man as a feminist and an all around wuss. A nice conservative lady sees a man who works, takes care of bidness and supports his family with his life.

[msc545]

There are no ladies. Not anymore.

[Dongie]

@msc545 oh, somebody singing da' blues. Cheer up, ofcourse there are. Incognito in this crazy world.

[Curmudgeon]

@Dongle Too few and too far between. Especially for women in the @msc545 age range. Now for oldsters it does improve a bit, but he isn't there yet.

[msc545]

@Curmudgeon exactly.

[Dongie]

@Curmudgeon I'll take your word for that. I guess at my age I find it very easy to spot a lady in this day and age. There is always that invisible force field to keep the current state of affairs going on in this now slimy environment at bay.

[msc545]

Seriously, don't take that too seriously - it can lead to real trouble for you.

[Dongie]

@msc545 trouble for me?

[msc545]

If you rely on your radar or whatever you use to differentiate the good and bad ones. Many of the seemingly "good" ones are just women who are very skilled at concocting false appearances and narratives. I fell for this when I was younger and married a nightmare.

[Dongie]

@msc545 you mistook my description of these younger and rare subjects. I am not what is referred to as an old fool. I learned my lesson in 08 at 45 years old when I was unmercifully shot down in flames by a 23 year old. I do not pursue anyone very far from my age group. Nope, I'm retired pretty much.

[msc545]

oh sorry! So you already got smart - good!

[Dongie]

@msc545 yeah, she cut me up without a hitch in her speech. Razor tongue with subtlety and ease she laid out how "old age" wasn't very appealing an left me there with my friend trying his best to keep from laughing. I shrugged it off but it stung, real deep.

[msc545]

I hear you, brother. I wound up in court with mine. Cost me $$$$ and my child.

being respectful, responsible
loving n caring
understanding

it doesn't take much to be a good man
for example just to love n protect his family is enough to make him a good man

[SolitarySolace]

Being respectful? Respect is earned not given. Responsible? why should a man be the responsible one when women aren’t? Loving n caring? again why should a man always be the loving and caring one when aren’t? Understanding? I’ve never met an understanding woman. They’re always critical and always seeking problems to exploit and gain something out of. Whether it be material something’s or a sense of achievement. Why should a man protect something that important when he gains no benefit from doing so?

[laly520]

u were unlucky enough to keep meeting the worse of em
besides I didn't mean man gotta be the only one to love, care n be responsible in relationship

[SolitarySolace]

I think it has to do with the type of women in my area and I have no intentions of moving away from family. So I guess I’m just doomed to never meet this mythical good woman everyone claims exists.

[laly520]

they do exist but yea it has to do with area u live in
from what I noticed women r so horrible where u live
I don't know much just from what I saw in comments or posts n all seemed down bad

[SolitarySolace]

I’m sure a few do and those who do are already in relationships with good men and have children 🤷🏻‍♂️ The rest are not worth a man’s time.

[msc545]

There are no ladies. Not anymore.
