Sign here if youre a male that has never said those things. [View all]

I'm 28. Got married at 23 because I've always wanted to be married. Went to Home Ec class in middle school to learn kitchen skills because I wanted to be a good husband.

Granted I'm not like many men, but I've been through college. I've been apart of conversations with other male peers.

But I've never spoken like that or seen women that way. And neither did the guys I hung out with.

If you can consider yourself in that troupe of men. Sign here.
