Men And Boys

Today I read an article from a woman's perspective on immature men. The author proceeded to explain how men (in the past 50 years especially) have stopped growing up. She claimed that the majority of broken families, underdeveloped children, and cross-gender distrust is the result of men who wouldn't stop being boys. Is she right? I think I agree. Men were once those responsible for leading the family and setting an example for others, and yes, as a whole, we've compromised this status. Today, I stopped and looked around at people I know. I looked around at friends, family, co-workers, and strangers, and realized something... Most young women today don't want a man, they want a boy (notice, I said young women). They stopped looking for someone to be the hardest worker, the most trustworthy friend, the highest role model, and the best possible father for they're children. Instead, they strangely seek out shallow and weak men who validate them, not support them. They surrender their emotions, thoughts, and bodies to fragile and fickle boys. And those boys create for themselves an illusion of masculinity in their own minds as they indulge themselves. Thus, two broken people search for wholeness in each other. It is, therefore, no surprise when fleeting happiness fades and only chipped damaged goods remain. Fellas, lets decide to take the lead. And by leading, we make decisions out of wisdom, not out of emotion. To be an agent of stability, not validity. Young ladies, don't seek out boys. Companions are not meant to be hollow and easy, they're meant to be challenging, but rewarding.
