I was excited to read this selection because I thought it was going to be about the "Guy's Code" when it comes to dating but now I just feel bad for them. Guys are under so much pressure to act a certain way. They have to be carbon copies of each other if not their life is over. Yes as girl we have our own problems but we have a lot more gray area than guys do. From the age of four they are told how to act and if they decide to not conform they are made fun of the rest of their lives.
I thought it has hilarious when it said that men are more about what other men think about them then women. Us women think that they get all muscular and act cool for us but in reality they do it so that they don't get made fun of. They are all so worried about being gay when in reality they are gayer than ever. If what a man thinks about you is the most important thing to you then you are gay. Its also sad how if a man shows emotions or actually cares about things other than sports they're considered gay. There are plenty of gay men you are emotionless and love sports and I'm sure that there are plenty of straight men you actually have emotions and hate sports but are too scared to say something.
I strongly believe with the idea that because men are told not to express their emotions they have problems in the future. All their life they are told to suck it up and that men don't cry but once they get into a relationship with a girl that's all we care about. We want to know what's wrong with you, we don't want you to just shut us out and say everything is fine. By making men act this way they are really screw up their lives. This is why many men end up being alcoholic or having depression. They are so used to the competition of making themselves better than the next man so when they fail they don't know how to react. They can sit there and start crying or complain about their life because that doesn't follow the "Guy Code." I say screw the "Guy Code" and live life the way you want to.
