If all women were transparent at their core, as you purport, you'd be able to see the mirth your 'absolutes' inspire, shining within each and every one of us like tiny little candles all aglow. Sorry, I'm laughing again.
Please, tell my husband that all women have difficulty saying what they mean. I think my man must be terribly confused, as he often chides me for being far too frank about what I want, need, feel, think, etc.
In order for most (see, I said most, not all) human beings to feel special, cherished, loved, admired, treasured (some of the stuff long term relationships are made of), then it's probably a rather good idea to throw out the absolutes. (Mine got lost in the dryer along with the missing socks long ago)
I can honestly say that men delight me, especially my husband. I still haven't really got a clue to their inner workings, any more than I have a clue to what makes most people tick. I barely have a handle on what moves me. I do know that I'm not attracted to patronizing generalities, or the individuals who issue them. A man who inspires me is one whose behavior and conduct is respectful toward me, not demeaning. But that's just me. I can only speak for how I feel.
Maybe someday I, too, will be able to say I know my spouse so well that I feel I know men in general. I kind of doubt it, because I'm fairly obtuse when it comes to reading other people. Actually, I hope that the men I meet continue to delight me with their variety of personalities, experiences, mental, spiritual, emotional persuasions. I learn something new each day about myself, my husband and our relationship simply by listening to other men (and women).
I may not agree with everything I read on this site, but I certainly take a great deal away each time I visit, which I then mull over and digest. The trick for me is to try to keep an open mind.
Noone, your last sentence sums things up well:
"Whether by rules or less formal means, a woman must know that a man cares. In the end, that is all that matters." It's just as important that women let their men know they care. How we each do that might possibly be unique to our individual relationships.
