    I don’t really know (mature) women who want their guy to be sensitive. What we generally don’t want is someone who is emotionally unavailable. Closed off, if you will. I see those as different things.
    One thing I know is 100% certain- once you lose respect for your spouse, whatever the reason, you might as well call it quits.

    That's a female thing. I don't know that guys ever do, regardless how dumb that sounds and/or makes them. In my experience, women are their own worst enemies at losing that respect. They bitch and bitch and bitch ... you need to change this - so-n-so's husband does that - why can't you be more sensitive? Then you change all that crap and they realize they've turned you into someone they didn't marry and don't want you any more.

    Go through THAT once, and refuse to budge the second go round and they leave too because they aren't getting their way changing you.

    It's a lose/lose deal. Glad I finally got old enough to not care about it

    Dr. Laura Schlessinger explained that what a woman means by a sensitive man is one that is sensitive to things that interests her. In other words, it's a one-sided sensitivity.

    Watching female siblings that are much older made me wise to it. While their visits were a downer, at least I got that out of it.

    The key is to find a compliant, obedient woman.

    i kinda figured you'd pop up from the woodwork. I addressed a specific point. It was not to insult anyone, nor "women". And I sure as Hell don't want whatever an "obedient woman" is. Is that like a slave? You're barking up the wrong tree.

    If a woman lets a man be a real man and she desires to be a real woman, then she ignores most of this new age advice about how women should treat men..
    If you love your spouse treat them with respect and show your love daily.
    Women need to see this more often than men do but men also need that reinforcement too.
    Surest way to bust up a marriage is for one partner(usually the wife) to start using sex-withholding as a leverage to control the other.
    Sex in marriage is always a delicate balance as to it meeting both partners requirements/desires.
    Be fair and be unselfish, if your partner is honorable/decent, they return this and the marriage works.
    Riza and I are now married 13 years and this has worked out splendidly--for BOTH OF US!
    Key word in that is --BOTH.....
    AND YES THERE ARE TIMES A MAN/HUSBAND SIMPLY MUST BE SENSITIVE...
