So, I feel like lately I've been more negative than I should be in the crush thread, and Ethnog's 'meeting' thread made me think of some of the men I have been blessed to know. I know people are people and it's not that some qualities are only true of one sex, but men and women ARE different and I know there are some things I really admire about the male personality/character. So what are some things you admire in the opposite sex?
I really admire are the fact men seem to remain more calm than women a lot of the time. Something else I've noticed, thinking about my dad in particular, is a kind of calm determination and doggedness to get the job done, day after day. He will do what it takes with a kind of quiet strength even when it's not fun or pleasant and I admire that.
It's not my intention to make a thread full of stereotypes - 'men do this, women do that' etc - but I thought it might be nice to have a thread where we can celebrate our differences!
