Men, wives and girlfriends

It is common knowledge that behind a great man lies an even greater woman. But what makes a great man? Is it his money, his power, his all over the place temperament, his knowledge? Or is it his kindness, his compassion, his also knowledge, his no need for power? I'm not so sure. The thing is perhaps great men are a dying breed but we girls (especially the Bohemian ones) know exactly what to do to create a great men. Of course we're responsible for them seeing daylight, but when the man has seen daylight for plenty of years and is now into adulthood, what then? My guess is that all men love power. For some it is intrinsic, for others it's picked up along the course of life. And sure they can be very kind men, but they will still love the power. When a man is badly in need of power, it does not mean he wants to make other people miserable. Sometimes it happens that way. Mostly not. But what is it like when a man has not one, but some 10 other women running around at his beck and call? Nothing happens, he just sees one and not the other nine. Sorry for this girls, but it's the truth. He will see the one who stands out of his agenda. Because men like to watch, they are turned on by the voyeuristic point of view. Mostly. Of course a couple of men could be turned on by more noble things, but let's not stray. The more intelligent the man, the more complicated it could get. Or maybe not. Life has thrown me quite a number of men at my feet (now ain't that narcissistic, and ain't it something to put on my C.V.?!). All have been different. And you kind of learn a lot through their diverse ways, attitudes, personalities, likes and dislikes. All men want a good wife. But not all men start out as wanting a good wife. When I hear other women say that their husband wants them to go au naturel, minus the paint, and the clinking metal... it makes me think. They don't really want to have something au naturel, they really want something which will not make other men look. And these men are, more often than not, quite insecure. What they do not know is that insecurity is hardly an aphrodisiac for the girls. My Mister, oh he's a sweetheart, what I like, he will like. He loves me for being different, he loves all of the look. But then there are very few who match him. He's not insecure, never was, never will be. But other men, other man love to have a something on the side which suddenly becomes top priority. Married men have girlfriends on the side. Again ironically, the girlfriends on the side could become their top priority, because they're no goody goodies, they do not look like wifely material and that is exactly what causes them to snap. The secret is in being inobedient day in, day out. Because that is a challenge, and men love, no adore challenges. Seems human behaviour hasn't changed very much. Because we let men think that they are the head of the household, while we have the balls to control them.
