Don't hurt woman's emotions, and man's ego

@Rihana "Woman's ego" and "Man's emotions" are oxymoron. Do we ever have egos?

 

Very well said Akanksha!

Men by nature have few emotions compared to women, and by 'man's ego' she means male ego.

A woman's emotions should be nurtured well and a man's ego should be fed well, this is the truth.

 

Men show his ego to everyone, wife is not excluded. Women, though she have ego as a wife she shows only emotion to her husband. In a married relationship husband get hurt if his ego is disturbed not his emotion. Wife, vise versa. So "in married relationship" the above quote is true.

 

Sadly I have a BIG ego...just being truthful :hide:. The men are just as emotional as women. They just may not express as much in form of tears, is all.

When my husband and I fight, he is the one who always comes to makes up so he never shows ego to me. My problem is even if I want to make up, my ego makes me wait till he comes to me .

 

Maybe I am dense, but is ego also not an emotion?And if men dont have any emotion, are they a block of wood?

 

what cinderella says is very true in the "Indian marriage context". Now if a woman is more "modernized girl" (for lack of a better term? then its hard to say. But overall the advice holds good traditionally for a lot of "Indian marriages".

 

I don't see your ego on IL. Show some ego here? Jungle mein mor nacha kisne dekha (If a peacock dances in jungle who watched it). Samne karo to pata lage (do in front so that we know).

 

Ragini, I don't think it is true only in Indian Marriages. It is true in other cultures as well as I hear from my non-indian friends. Just their issues of contentions are different. Men still do only what they like to do. Men may be helping with chores in the house but at the same time, may go out alone on weekends with friends for drinks or football games. Our men may not help with chores but do not go out alone for games/drinks.
