Men can be sweet when they want to. They can even be thoughtful and caring if they put their minds to it. I know this for a fact because I grew up with men. Male cousins, young uncles, even male friends. I was “used” in courting neighborhood girls and even schoolmates. These men would tell me to say a kind word here and there to the girl who’s become my friend already from constant hounding on my part.

When I “report” back to the men, they would converge and talk about things. And I would hear how they could be sweet and caring and devoted even.

But most men do not even exert an effort to try and be one.
