So I was looking at my Hotmail, when I notice something funny on the little MSN crap sidebar. "Women Be Better Listeners". I snickered at the seemingly cavemanesque tone, but then I noticed there was a colon between Women and Be, (much like the one between the mouth and ass), and that saved it as far as syntax. This link made me laugh twice though, because when I first clicked, it initially said "document contains no data", which as it turned out, was very appropriate. Here's the article. Quoth Dr. Lillian Glass of Beverly Hills, (spelling errors* hers) “You only respond to the people when you can relate to the last thing they said or ask a question to learn more about them. It’s a learning process; it’s learning to see what commonalties you have.”
Women can tell a lot about a man by really listening to him, says Dr. Glass.
“A lot of times women want to get married; they’re looking for that husband on the internet,” she says. “And men can feel this. On the other hand, there are men out there who are just looking for sexual satisfaction or a quick interaction and not a relationship. And you can tell which is which when you listen and really communicate.”
See, it's all about listening. It's not about pimpin hoes/slammin cadillac does, or who's got the most male jelly/largest clutch of eggs. It's not about the cosmic background radiation, it's not about the benjamins, it's not about Ashlee, it's about listening. Lennon got it wrong, all you need is not love, but ears. Don't look at his credit report, don't check his IE cache file, don't bug his broom closet, just listen to him.
*EDIT: ok, so there really is a "commonalties", but I seriously doubt she is talking about "The common people; those classes and conditions of people who are below the rank of nobility; the commons."
