I know exactly what I want. I do understand what you are saying here and you put it quite well actually!
Is it any wonder men will NEVER figure us out! heh
I do not like the "bad boy rebel" guy - they aren't worth my time, thanks. But I am a very big fan of the alpha male syndrome. That is, as long as he doesn't try to control my every freakin' move! I am one of those very non-feminist women who likes a man who is in control, who is strong, who is confident. I like a man who takes on the "traditional" role of protector and defender. I like a guy who can take control of a situation without being a bully or taking on a "holier than thou" attitude.
I may piss off a few women here but I personally like it when a man takes "over". I am a very strong person, I have had to be. I don't regret it at all - it has made me a much better person. But you know what....once in a while it would be nice to have a man to lean on, to let him take care of life's little bitches, and to trust without one tiny doubt in his ability to do so.
Ergh...I don't think that came out quite the way I wanted it to but you get the main point! Sappy "sensitive" men need not apply!
Oh wait....that's not to say that a guy who is an obnoxious jerk is good.....no no no! Ohhhh I am so damned articulate today! ergh
