men, don't tell women what is supposed to make them happy or how to be happy. we understand life in a way that men never will and we have accepted that. it's very hard to be graceful in the face of such ludicrous misgivings about womanhood, but we do try to give you the benefit of a doubt and most of the time we don't want to but we do anyway.

nothing makes women happier than when you're strong enough to love us the way we want and need to be loved and not the way you insist we should be loved.
