“Give him room to fulfil his naturally hard-wired roles as a man. A good man wants to cultivate a life with a woman who is willing to be interdependent with him. In the same way a woman desires to feel desired, a man needs to feel needed. A good man, one who revels in his masculinity, will love and cherish you
for allowing him the opportunity to bear the burdens that come with being born male.”
