What is Quotempole?
Quote
For all the tensions that result from the differences between male and female natures, neither sex would really want things to be much different. Let men imagine what women would be like if htey had men's nonintimate, variety-directed, always-seeking-new-excitement nature. Men would loathe such competitive women, few people would establish a stable home (which despite their nomadic nature, most men yearn for), and few men or women would take care of the next generation. On the other hand, let women imagine what men would be like if they were as desirous of intimacy, as nest-oriented, as women. Most women regard men who are like that as essentially women with men's bodies, not as desirable men. It is the rougher edged, macro oriented, and sexually aggressive male nature that makes men-when they control their nature-most attractive to women.
