What do women want from men according to this college professor, Jonci... and Jerry!
So, uh, here's what real women say they want from men.
Real women.
Okay.
And if you would like to contribute-
[laughs]
... to this survey, 601-995-1017.
They say put the toolbox down, but not the literal toolbox.
Women just wish men would stop trying to fix everything and just listen.
Um, okay.
Y- yes, I agree.
I don't like the metaphor.
The metaphor is very cringe.
But yes, when I am venting my problems to you as a man-
Mm-hmm
...
I am not asking you to fix it for me.
I'm a big girl.
I can fix it m- for myself.
I just want to be able to vent.
Venting makes me feel better.
So the perfect thing to say would be, "I'm so sorry that happened.
That really sucks."
Yeah.
That's enough? That's it?
Just s- see the person.
