Alright…here we go! This article springs from a variety of conversations I’ve had lately with female clients who’ve said things like: “See, women just don’t know this stuff about men!”

So, here, we’re going to dive into some of the things that make men, well…men.

Here’s the thing:

Some of this, women won’t like.

Some of it, women won’t be able to relate to.

Some of it, men will probably refuse to admit.

Some of it, women will comment and say: “That goes for women, too!” (Yes, we already know that, but this article is about men).

Some of it, they’ll wish I hadn’t said out loud.

But…that’s what I do. I say the silent things out loud.

I’ve spent more than a decade [trying to] help men understand women through endless articles (like this recent one here), speaking, and private coaching.

Now, let’s dive into some points that will [hopefully] bring you some clarity around why men are the way they are.

In no particular order…

1: Men need to feel useful.

“Useful…like a tool?”
