In My Opinion ..........
Our society has always labeled men as the provider and woman as the care giver. One thing that I have learned is that in nature, with none of the trapings of civilazation, that the mans roll is not to be the provider, but it is to be the protector, the defender of his family. In reality the women provided most of the food with fruits and grains, ect. The meat that the man brought home was actually a small portion of the total diet. On a purely instinctive basis a man needed to be willing to stand his ground, even to his death, to insure that his woman and children would survive. This is not a necessary behavior pattern in today's world, but the need is a hardwired part of a male brain. This is what is refered to today a "the male ego". Ladies, try to understand this in your man. Sometime he will not back down from a confrontation because he emotionally can not do it, even when he knows intellectually that it is a stupid thing to do. This is just the way that nature has made us. If you ever find yourself in this kind of situation with your man, never, ever tell him that his only choice is to walk away or you will leave him. If he truely loves you, he will walk away. Now, he has lost his self-respect and you have emotional castrated him. He walked away for you, but he will never again be the man that he was before.
