Ten Politically Incorrect Truths About Human Nature (Men & Women)

hat tip to www.hotair.com for this one!

#7 and #4 are my favorites besides this one quoted below:

“Many believe that men go through a midlife crisis when they are in middle age. Not quite. Many middle-aged men do go through midlife crises, but it’s not because they are middle-aged. It’s because their wives are. From the evolutionary psychological perspective, a man’s midlife crisis is precipitated by his wife’s imminent menopause and end of her reproductive career, and thus his renewed need to attract younger women. Accordingly, a 50-year-old man married to a 25-year-old woman would not go through a midlife crisis, while a 25-year-old man married to a 50-year-old woman would, just like a more typical 50-year-old man married to a 50-year-old woman. It’s not his midlife that matters; it’s hers. When he buys a shiny-red sports car, he’s not trying to regain his youth; he’s trying to attract young women to replace his menopausal wife by trumpeting his flash and cash.”

Great read

All the problems of the world are the fault of men.  Just because we have this need to have sex with young, blond, big breasted, small waist women.  I think most of us here on PL want the same things only dark hair.  Seriously that was a very interesting read

That was a really informative article to read Daytrader. Thanks for posting it.  Point number 7 has explained to me why I am content to just sorta get by without attempting to do anything great since I have already competed earlier in life and won insofar as genes being carried forward. 
Interestingly as I prepare to remarry someday I internally realize that I have to leave open the possibility that I may need to "Compete" ,except this time in a suit and tie rather than showing off a physique or full head of hair.  I have noticed that often times in the weeks leading up to a Colombian trip, I will work a little harder & be quicker to anger.  That fits right into what is said here, the trips to Colombia temporarily turn me into a young man 18-30 whereby I prepare to fight and compete like I was younger than I actually am. 

Fathertime!

Absolutely awesome article. I would have enjoyed it regardless of its origins, but the "frosting," so to speak, is that it's based on scientifically gathered data, methods, and research. Not a fluff piece. As I read it, I thought of several females known to me whose heads would explode before they reached the final paragraph.

You really want to piss off a feminazi, explain that big women's breasts are really devices to turn men on, not solely for feeding babies.

I read this a long time ago in some 'going back to the caveman days, why men and women are different' book or article.

Know why women talk so much and men don't?
(Hint: It's the same reason in both cases)

 Great link,

 I beleive women hit a mid-life crisis too. Noone takes notye of that. It seems if they get married young and have kids, they are prone to looking at "The grass in greener on the other side". This usually happens as she hits her 30's or mid thirties. She realizes hjer looks aren't getting any better and better bail while she may still have a chance to upgrade. They rarely ever do upgrade.

  A 50 year old guy married to a 25 year old woman probably has about 5-10 good years with her before she hits her mid-life crisis. But if she is exceptional and a great girl,what more can you ask for?
