Listen up ladies! The author of this article has it about right. Don't BS me, and I won't BS you... (unless you ask me "do I look fat in this outfit")

However, D_Lion's response above doesn't seem to apply equally and is almost laughable. What is that saying about women? Does it mean they don't want or can't handle the truth from men?
I think D_Lion's response is true. I don't know many fragile women. I would always hope that the man in my life is honest with me but he can be nice when he shares his honest view point. I think men often talk to men gruffly. I think honesty is okay but don't talk to her like she is a man.

On topic I think honesty is always the best policy and different view points are good between mature adults. That is what makes it fun.

Thanks for this article, I really thought ALL men were cavemen...just kidding . Really though, it does seem as if MOST men are still in their caves and will never come out into the sunshine because the cave is probably more comfortable and women will just have to put up with it if they want to keep a man. I suppose these men think they dont need to do better because theres no better out there. I have never met one of the evolved ones, but I am growing towards finally meeting one.

Happiness is a virtue that you are totally in charge of for yourself. Don't expect someone else to always make you happy. Put a smile on your face and enjoy life.

I thought that the person answering the man in the article was a woman not a "girl"...relationships between men and girls...what is eharmony peddling here?

Do you really think this is interchangeable with both genders? When D_Lion made the comment reversing this: "Let us dispel a myth: All women are not fragile in need of self-worth stroking. So go ahead, say what you want and not what you think she wants to hear!" you didn't find this humorous or even absurd? Example: see the 'Do you think I'm fat?' thread. How many women who ask this want the man to tell her what he reallythinks and not what she wants to hear? I don't think it's very many.
Yes. I do think this article is interchangeable. But I do think honesty and "tact" should go hand in hand. Of course if a asks "Do you think I'm fat" she doesn't want to hear a resounding "YES"! from her man. Just as I'm sure no man wants to hear his woman says "Yes, you're much smaller than average". So, in my opinion niether sex wants "blunt honesty". Maybe if she asks "Do you think I'm fat?" - He could answer "It doesn't matter to me, I'm attracted to you (If this is true for him). If he does find her fat and is not attracted to her then maybe he should answer honestly and let her find someone who does feel attracted to her for who she is.

As for the "evolved man" question of size, maybe she should answer honestly "It doesn't matter to me because I'm satisfied in our physical relationship" - If that's true for her. If it's not true for her - then you tell me, how should she answer that one?

Sounds likethe evolved man wants a mother.  I bet a mother's boy or girl wrote it.  Based on this article the new name for an evolved man is Woosy.  Or as the California Governer labled him  girly-man.  What kind of woman wants a girly-man? Who would want a woman who wants a girly-man?  The telling line in the article is She says: you relax & watch the game while I cook dinner.  As if the guy is a lazy lout.  What is not said is that in the morning on that Saturday he fixed the car, mowed the lawns, repaired the washing machine, and assembled the christmas toys while she took a bubble bath and watched Oprah.  It seems like the woman's obligation to the relationship based on this article is to merely exist.  That's evolution.
