Nope and no.
Each time either a man or a woman thinks they understand the opposite sex, they find out something new and different. I've lived with my wife for over twenty seven years now and I know that I know her well, but she still comes up with stuff out of the blue at times.
Maybe there is a woman or maybe there are women out there I could understand and who could fully understand me... but I guess the world will never know.
Do I understand women, absolutely! There is only one thing you need to know to understand a women and that is this: All rules are subject to change at any given time. Do women understand men? Same answer.
Before anybody takes offense here let me say this is not a put down to either sex, its a recognition that we are all humans. I would agree with roccotool about his wife. I too know my wife well, but she still surprises me as I do her on occasion.
One thing I have noticed over the years is this. The ability to understand the opposite sex at any given time is subject to swings over time, and sometimes, it even is subject to different people. I do love my wife, but I know there are other women I've met who I could have loved just as strongly under different circumstances who sometimes understand be better than my wife.
I think you have to know yourself first.
So the answer is no to both. Ghost is right. Married 5 years 1st time and now 22 years 2nd time. My sweetie knows me better, because of time together. And I know her better, but there is alwaqys rooms to learn more.
And then tomorrow it will change. As we get older our ideas change, how we see things change.
And change is good.
Got and spare change for a cup of coffee?
Partial Understanding If your lucky. Complete Understanding, Not a chance in Hell.
I would ahve to say the answer is no to the first...
and yes to the second...
Im sorry but, there is not way in hell, that i will ever be able to understand women...Way too complicated, surprising, mysterious, and sometimes secretive.
As to women understanding men, in my experiences, men are easy to figure out... we are simple. We concentrate at the task at hand and have fun at life...unlike women.
I think we make it too easy to understand us...
lol
I believe that my wife and I understand each other very well. Understanding other women, I don't know about that.
Her understanding other men, I would have to answer the same way. But that is a guess. Let me ask. I will return.
I don't think either sex truly understands the other. I've never felt like anybody, man or women, truly gets me. Nor do I believe that I completely understand men, and I am one! We do things sometimes that just make me WTF!
However, I think it is possible to understand individuals to a great degree. A person of the opposite sex will have an extra layer of complexity to them, just on the fact that they have their gender to consider. But there are plenty of women that I understand better then men, despite us not having the same private parts.
B, I will not. Those are correct.
I've learn to say I am ready to go, then go take a shower, get dressed, play a game (10 to 20 mins) on the puter, have a second cup of coffee and a smoke and then say I am leaving and go out and start the truck and smoke a 2nd butt and maybe in 10 mins thee (3 daughters and a wife ) are ready.
bshaddow, I could dispute you on most everything you put down on your list...
Am I the only guy who talks about the wedding cake?
And I can go on record here as saying I love foreplay. I have the softest, firmest, most patient tongue...and I 'drink' on the job (wink!).
A women's inner thigh is more than just a pillow, a stop for my thighs...it's part of the feast. I could go on and on...neck, back, ass, ears, just above the hip...and start over. Tasting, Tasting, one-two-three!
Chuckles.....love that "tasting, tasting, one-two-three"....
Personally, when I'm "on the job", I like to take a little nip, myself.....
If the army is a euphemism(?) for making love, then show me the sign-in sheet. I'm in! "Lock and load, mister!"
And I knew you were kidding. hehehe
Chef, did you mean "work" as in foreplay or eating pussy? And don't say, "yes".
Seriously, if you truly want to understand your gal/man/partner, you can. It's all about being open and honest and willing. I don't like commercials and tv shows that characterize men as being dolts, such as the ones that have been filling screens for the last ten years, at least. I hate stereotyping. All blondes aren't dumb, and I have never been a "Wham, Bam, 'Thank You, Ma'am'" kind of guy.
Did I mention that the inner thigh of a woman is a delicacy best served slowly. I agree with Monocle, that it is about understanding, and about being willing to understand.
We applaud guys who learn how to please a woman, like a Don Juan, but we can do it in every area if we try. Both parties.
