Interesting survey

A survey done by AskMen.com of 70,000 of their readers has shown some surprising (and not so surprising) statistics.

Some examples ...
  • 77% of men look for a girlfriend with "wife potential"
  • 76% believe they have a soul mate
  • 77% have cried over a woman
  • 83% say they should pay for the date (who said chivalry is dead)
I have an unproven theory and that is, in the past many men answered surveys in a way that did not truly reflect their beliefs etc, mostly because we tend not to face many of those feelings or challenge those beliefs because of where they might lead us.

I believe that as the years go by and as men become more comfortable with their feelings etc, some more truths will come to light that will see a marked change in the way we see other men and hopefully ourselves.

Maybe we will no longer be seen as Neanderthals but instead caring, understanding and seen and treated as equals in society just like women.
