Women, pffffft jk

I always try reallllly hard to come up with something good to blog about. Its always feels like you gotta be deep, you don't want to look shallow. step it up. when in the end all you got is nothing, whats to say then? (see what i did there?)

    I sat down the other day at a friends house, and saw from across the room a bookshelf filled with....you guessed it... books. My friends mother is very religious and as it seems from her bookshelf also very family orientated, or at least she tries to be. All of these books revolve around relationships and understanding people, like "how to know he's the one," maturing boys (she raised two sons), stuff on dating, stuff like that. Of course i had to pick up the book about my own kind and i skimmed it for about a half an hour and came up with this.

   First thing i noticed was that the book was written by one from the female sex, and the obvious question came to mind, what does she think she knows about guys. I guess a lot, the book was pretty big. lol. It was filled with random tidbits of information from boy or girls anywhere between the ages of 6 to 19, plus she threw in some psychological stuff to help put it all together.She asked these kids to take a survey from anywhere between what you don't get about girls/guys, to what do you think you do better. Some boys wrote the immature thing, like for the question  "what are girl good at?" some boys wrote cooking, cleaning, losing, things like that. I think girls are good at caring, maybe sometimes a little bit too much, but i wish that sometimes i could be as sensitive. I find myself to be a little cold, and probably to truthful when i have to deal with someone crying. I also ask you guys the same question if anyone bothers reading this, what are girls/guys better at doing that you wish you could do.

   Another thing in this book was about emotions. A lot of girls responses were about how they wished guys would open up to them more, or talk about their feeling more often. As a child, specifically a male child, boys don't share their feelings, they punch dance through them. (hot rod reference watch the movie) Through out the early childhood i think guys are raised to hide their feelings and be a man, maybe not always by the parent, but by friends as well. If a boy would cry at school for any reason there picked on, being a baby, but girls on the other hand are socially accepted to be allowed to cry. I'm not asking permission to be allowed to cry lol i just think its wierd the way we are raised by some and than begged by others later to open up. Idk about you guys but I've only seen my father cry once, and i never learned why i just remember being scared.
