I have been watching the DVD of this old HBO series called 'The mind of the married man'. It is like a male, married version of 'Sex and the city'. It is funny and smart and at the same time quite informative for us women! I mean it's no secret that most men have not evolved much since their days as cavemen and they have only three things on mind: work, food and sex and that marriage is like a life imprisonment to them. The things that this show reveals is how clueless they are most of the times about their own feelings, not to mention about their emotional, romantic and much evolved partner's feelings and how much effort they have to put in to keep up with the women in their lives (be it wife or the cute/hot colleague). The sad part is that they still fail..each and everyday and to rectify that they keep doing more and more mistakes making things worse. Maybe we need to start thinking in more simple terms to help these poor souls :)
The show also revealed some scary thoughts that men have (at least all the one on the show had). I am not talking about the usual fantasies of other women but things like having something called a 'free-pass dream' when the wife is too much to handle. In this dream they think of a quick, painless (because they actually love their wife) way by which the wife meets an accident and die(!!!!!!!!!) and they get their freedom back, get lots of money (insurance or such) plus a sob story to impress other women!!! Maybe I should ask my boyfriend if he already has one of those..or maybe I should stop watching this show..too much information might complicate things even more..he he.

i shud watch this show or maybe not as u said..it might complicate things!!it's soo soo true..they're so unaware of their feelings, unwilling to face problems forget fighting 'em off!
i think their brain develops only on the superficial n mathematical level..thrs no depth to most of 'em!
Hi hi..I agree with your observations. You should watch the show. Just don't analyze :)
