The arrogance of men never ceases to amaze me. You all think everything has to do with you, and every woman has to desire you.

You foolish men, who accuse
Women without good reason,
You are the cause of what you blame,
Yours the guilt you deny.
If you seek the love of women to win
With ardor beyond compare,
Why require them to be good,
When 'tis you who urge their sin?

Each woman virtually summons every man to show cause why he doth not love her.

Whether you like it or not, it's how men are wired. A man can love a woman intensely, but sometimes, he's sexual urges takes control.

Women’s vulnerability confessing their desire to see men as a success object is matched by men’s confession of compulsiveness of sexual desire for women.

All human activity is prompted by desire. There is a wholly fallacious theory advanced by some earnest moralists to the effect that it is possible to resist desire in the interests of duty and moral principle. I say this is fallacious, not because no man ever acts from a sense of duty, but because duty has no hold on him unless he desires to be dutiful. If you wish to know what men will do, you must know not only, or principally, their material circumstances, but rather the whole system of their desires with their relative strengths.

Men are always doomed to be duped, not so much by the arts of the sex, as by their own imaginations. They are always wooing goddesses, and marrying mere mortals.

Hombres necios que acusáis
A la mujer, sin razón,
Sin ver que sois la ocasión
De lo mismo que culpáis:
Si con ansia sin igual
Solicitáis su desdén
¿Por qué queréis que obren bien,
Si las incitáis al mal?

They draw back into themselves, and are thrown back on their own bodies for gratification. The men become narcissistic and uncertain of the power of any woman, no matter how strange and beautiful, to arouse their desire, but the women remain continually receptive to male advances.

All men are almost led to believe not of proof, but by attraction. This way is base, ignoble, and irrelevant; every one therefore disavows it. Each one professes to believe and even to love nothing but what he knows to be worthy of belief and love.

It is a normal thing for men to go after an attractive woman. I haven’t had any abnormal experience with them. They show their admiration of me and I show them mine.

Most women have only to lay eyes on you to want to be doing something for you so badly they can’t stand it […] You’re always so timid and yet you’re funny […] Sometimes you get terribly lonesome and depressed, but that only makes a woman’s heart itch all the more for you.

Women are often under the impression that men are much more madly in love with them than they really are.

it’s a funny time for women. We demand a certain sensitivity. We’ve made our outward attacks at machoism, right, in favor of the new sensitive male. But we’re just at the fledgling state of our liberty where we can’t handle it. I think we ask men to be sensitive and equal, but deep down think it’s unnatural. And we really want them to be stronger than us. So you get into this paradoxical thing.
