Maybe, sexy vulnerability is a concept that only exists in the female mind.

When you said that, I understood perfectly what you meant, but I wonder how many men understood. Or is it one of nebulous feminine needs that stay out there floating around with no fertile ground to grow in. And can we really articulate this concept so men will understand that it is not weakness, but great strength we speak off.

Just read a story titled, "Why Can't Men Be More Like Women" In this story the writer illustrates her point by looking at her two children, one a boy, the other a girl.

Both children attended the prom dance, upon arriving home the mother meets them at the door, she asks the son, "How was the dance" he answed, "Fine" and slouched on the couch to watch television silently, while she stood waiting, thinking something more was forthcoming.

When the daughter arrived home, she asked, "how was the dance" she answered, "Liddy's dress was off-white and she wore it with army boots. It was great! But she had a huge fight with Rob and they broke up on the dance floor, so the girls stayed in the restroom all night because Liddy was crying. And Rob, was acting all macho like he didn't care. So I made my date talk to Rob, and he finally apologized, but then Liddy didn't believe him so......"

If we are so great at communicating, why is there so much confusion about one simple concept?
