Men - you can't win

A tongue in cheek look at woman post 50 shades.....


I sat and listened to the most wonderful story between two suited men and it really made me think. The conversation was about a wife wanting to be dominated in the bedroom and then moaning at him to fix the lightbulb during the day.

Us woman have fought for years for equality, we wore the power suit and fuck me heels, we chucked back the whiskey in the boardroom, we sneered at stay at home mums. And then one book comes out and all of a sudden we want to be tied up, we want to be dominated, we want to be spanked and loved and cherished. No wonder our menfolk have got completely confused!

You see, men are relatively simple creatures. They are the hunter gatherer, they have tunnel vision (this enabled them to focus on prey in caveman days - fact). We taught them a way of acting around us and now we want to change that. We want, in fact, for them to be two people. One during day and one at night (or whenever the sub fancy takes us).

We've whined for years, "I just want to be your equal," we say. "Don't treat me like your slave," we say. "I'll pay my own way," we say. Now it's, "Make me your submissive." "I'll be your sex slave." "Buy me clothes, take me for dinner, pamper me before you ravish my body."

Okay, I know I'm being dramatic here, but I'm sure you get my drift :)

Is there a balance to be had? Of course there is. We can have a life where we can choose a 'normal' relationship with our partner during the day and a completely different one in the bedroom. But do our menfolk understand it? Have we confused the hell out of them with this change?

So, a simple message to our menfolk. Learn, quickly, what we want, when we want it, how we want it, when you pay, when you don't, when you spank, when you don't, when you enslave me, when you can't and we'll all get along just fine :) (smiles sweetly)
