"Their ability to look after a child " That’s a great one. The amount of comments I’ve had about being a ‘good dad and taking an interest in my child’ is ridiculous. It’s like I’m going out of my way to do it and it’s unexpected | |||

"Their kindness. I'm fortunate enough to have had a lot of good, strong, reliable men in my family. They may not be the most open emotionally but they were kind and could be very selfless in their actions." Being open emotionally is unfortunately often due to conditioning. But as you’ve pointed out the signs are often there is you look and they just need to be reciprocated | |||

"What is one thing that men are underestimated about? Being intelligent..... harsh ... but honest ... The amount of stupidity in the male species is beyond belief! We are great, we are always right, I have gun, grr, I am man, we fight, grr..... If women ran the world we would actually look after the planet, the animals, the people and the child.... It is the distinct lack of empathy that man has for others and the world that astounds me.... " If women ran the world? Maybe...there would be far more bitching though....so we might not get much done | |||

"Men are underestimated for the emotional support and care they can give. And listening not just "solving the problem"." Yes, knowing that even as men we don’t have to solve or fix every single issue even when we feel the need to protect. Support is often the greatest form of protection | |||

It takes a long time for attitudes to change. Minds take more time than laws. | |||

"Underestimated in the range and intensity of emotions we feel... (We hide them from our OH as we often believe that having a cry or admitting we are struggling will undermine our attraction, despite reassurances otherwise)" This! And as said previously it's down to conditioning and up bringing, men are meant to be and seen as the stronger sex when it comes to that and it's a sign of weakness to talk about how they are feeling and let emotions show | |||

I think it comes down to having a deep level of trust with the other person to not walk all over you at your most vulnerable moments but to just sit and hold your hands through them | |||

I don’t think I’m amazing I’m just a dad. But fir others to say it makes me feel I’m doing something right. | |||
