7 Lies Men Need to Stop Telling Themselves

1. She won’t date you because she’s a b*tch.

She may be a bitch but it’s not because she won’t date you. She’s not into you for whatever reason but likely it has to do with not being attracted, that’s all. I get it you, dude, want her and your own insecurity makes you lash out to save face. It’s not a super attractive quality though to lash out because someone’s just not that into you. It’s really no different than you not being attracted to men, if you’re not gay or fat chicks or whatever. You can’t force attraction. So, quit whining and acting like a total douchebag by calling someone names and move on.

2. Real men don’t cry or show emotion.

Yeah, this is utterly false. Real men cry when something happens that warrants it. Crying does not make you a sissy. Showing emotion is a sign of strength and your humanity. Not showing it is a sign of sociopathy or psychopathy. Repressing your emotions causes all kinds of health problems and that’s not good.

3. It’s not manly to groom and be clean.

Yes, it is. Being cleaning and grooming is a sign that you’re an adult and that you don’t have any mental disorders. It’s also a sign that you respect yourself and others. What exactly is manly about having Cheeto stains on your pants, wearing ill-fitting clothes or torn dirty t-shirts and reeking of body odor? Is it manly to not wipe your bum after a poop? You get the point here I hope. Wash and wear decent clothing – they don’t have to be pricey, but they and you need to be clean.

4. Real men fix stuff – cars, plumbing, etc.

It’s handy to be able to fix things to be sure but it’s not the job of your Y chromosome. Your job is to kill spiders because your woman is not going to do that!! (That’s kind of a joke but not 100% false) You aren’t required to know how to repair things be it cars, electrical work, plumbing or your partners problems. But if you don’t know how to fix that stuff you should be able to afford to have someone else repair it for you. This goes for women as equally as men – except spiders, we don’t kill them.

5. I deserve the best-looking woman (or man) out there regardless of what I look like.

Yeah, no for the most part you will get the kind of woman your level of attractiveness dictates. If you’re a tubby, middle aged steelworker – you won’t be getting anything higher than a tubby, middle-aged 4 or less if she’s thin. You follow what I’m saying here? If you, on your best day, are a 6 on a 1-10 scale – you might get an 8, if she’s a fat 8 but you won’t get an 8, if she’s not.
There are exceptions, but nobody gets or even deserves something for nothing. People got very angry when Donald Trump said, “I’m automatically attracted to beautiful women — I just start kissing them, it’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything, grab ’em by the pussy.”I didn’t get angry because what he said is and has been true in his experience and in the experience of many not so attractive but wealthy or famous men. There are women who are attracted to wealth, power and fame more than looks.It makes people angry to say or even admit that because society, thanks to feminism, prefers to take agency away from women and treat them like children.

So, if you have Bill Gates money or Bill Clinton power or even Adam Sandler fame, you’ll likely attract women completely out of your league because security trumps physical attractiveness for some women. If you’re willing to accept that a woman wants you for what you can give her, then you will be happy but then don’t complain later about your greedy girlfriend. That hotness isn’t free unless you look like Dwayne Johnson. Get used to it.

6. Real men must make more money than their partner.

This is complete bunk unless of course you want a super-hot woman that your looks won’t afford you, see above. Otherwise, in this day and age we have many families out there where the woman out earns the man and the man often becomes the stay at home parent. Are you secure enough to be okay with that? If you’re insecure – maybe not but there is nothing wrong with earning less if you and your partner are both happy.

7. Cheating/faithlessness is manly.

Cheating on your partner is the act of a coward, one who is too weak to address issues in your relationship, or passive aggressive and wants to cause harm. There is nothing manly about being a lying, faithless coward. A strong man can express his unhappiness or end a relationship that isn’t working. A weak one cheats, inflicts pain and causes irreparable harm to others.
