Thanks for the kind words. I agree with your post also. I think the reason is because hating them is easier. Talking, especially about this issue, and especially when there's already tension is VERY tough.
Even when you're getting along ok, I think discussing fantasies and desires can be tough. You want to convey these things to your partner (in the hopes of making them happen), however many are scared their spouse will think your desires are weird, perverted, etc. When that happens, walls on that subject go up immediately and are very hard to take down again.
Everyone knows most men are not big talkers. If the wife gets it started, its easier for the man to open up on this topic, as we're usually afraid to offend.
The problem I've seen is, women are the warmest, kindest creatures on the planet. They are also the most judgemental and quickest to close their mind on issues. No offense, just my opinion.
I think many men (including myself) are scared of women on some level - you just can never predict what their reactions are going to be. As I said before, I think men are much easier to guage reactions from.
Until someone comes out with the "mind-reading" pill you talked about, women will always own this part of the playing field. Maybe that's God's way of keeping the field level as well!
BTW - is that your real photo?
