Do Women Really Want A Good Man?
Michelle supports her man. Ladies, do you?
People magazine recently got some face time with the First Lady and she had some interesting things to say on the state of relationships today.
While I advocate love and all that good stuff over at my own place – does today’s generation really want that endless love that Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie sang about? Or is it all about the nookie? Find out after the jump.
In this digital age, you can find love at the click of a button it seems. Twitter, Facebook and other social media sites allow friends, foes and freaks access into your personal life, easily making it troublesome for someone to throw a monkey wrench into your love affair.
But it does seem like folks are trying to survive amidst the issues created by today’s technology. Leona Lewis scoffed at the media, who made snide remarks about her relationship with an electrician.
An electrician. If there’s anything I know about women it’s that they love a man that’s good with their hands. Yet our celebrity-crazed society thinks that the budding singing superstar should go for a higher caliber type of gentleman. What does Mrs. Obama have to say about all of this?
“Cute’s good. But cute only lasts for so long, and then it’s, ‘Who are you as a person?’ ” Obama, 45, says in the December issue of Glamour, out Nov. 10. “Don’t look at the bankbook or the title. Look at the heart. Look at the soul. When you’re dating a man, you should always feel good. You shouldn’t be in a relationship with somebody who doesn’t make you completely happy and make you feel whole.”
But ladies, do you want that type of person? In the midst of the Trey Songz, Idris Elba’s and whatnot – there’s plenty of man candy (pause for those who do that stuff) for the ladies. We’ve seen marriages dissolve, while new ones like Nick Carey and Mariah Cannon and The Omardashians confuse folks with their fast food wedding ways.
In the end, while a woman’s taste may vary, what is your end goal? Is it attainable in today’s fast paced dating culture? Speak on it in the comments section.

Well I can’t speak for every woman, but personally I want a serious relationship with someone who is serious about me. I’m maybe not looking 4 marriage right now; but a person who’s intelligent, witty, with a sense of humor, nice looking, independent, and has swag; would be cool qualities for a guy I’m just chilling with. Now is that sort of guy is unattainable in this microwave society? Probably not.., due to the fact that things are so rush, rush, that u will never get a chance to really know someone.
Obama’s right, material ideals fade; the heart and soul are what’s important when you think about possibly sharing a life with someone. Though you have to have some sort of sexual attraction; he doesn’t have to be walking eye candy. Cause if real love exist and it’s manifested itself over time … well that’s the then that’s the heart of the matter.
(Very good article by the way)
yes i do want a good man someone who i know wouldnt hurt me on purpose who wants a serious relationship, romantic and attractive (real talk).
if i noticed something about a good number of women (not all) is that they tend to date men who turn out to be @$$holes until they learn how to look past material things and “cute looks”. then they tend to get a reality check that can be really painful emotionaly or worse physically. im not saying that men with the looks and material possesions aren’t real, faithful men, i just feel that women have a harder time seeing past looks and possesions than men do.
