This post will be much shorter than the one for the women,
because men keep it simple and uncomplicated. (One of the many things I love about them!)
What makes your lions feel safe?
Well, based on what men have shared with me directly, and
based on observation, what makes them feel safe are two primary things:
- Being respected
- Physical affection
Period. (Not necessarily in that order.)
Constantly Thinking…
Blogger’s Note to the Lionesses
This additional explanation is for the women. Men don’t need
it.
Respect includes:
- Not being emasculated – through word, deed, tone, or facial expression (i.e. eye rolling, speaking to them like they’re children)
- Being trusted and listened to, which can be synonymous with submission. Before your feathers get ruffled, let me make a statement about the scary submission word:
- Imagine a sports team, with a team captain. Everyone on the team is valuable, but there is a leader. The man feels safest when he is in the team captain role. It actually feels good with them there, too. If you don’t want to be on a team with a captain, or if you insist on being the team captain, perhaps you don’t really want to be in a relationship (with a strong man).
Physical affection – Giving a man physical affection affirms
or reaffirms many things that we need separately as women.
- It tells them they’re attractive, physically desirable and sexy
- It gives them peace of mind (sex is a stress reliever)
- It provides emotionally stability – it confirms that we still care about them, and that we’re not (still) mad
- It allows them to both be strong and vulnerable at the same time
I love men. The good ones (and there are many) make life so
much more enjoyable. The great ones are priceless, lovable, respect-worthy, and delightful. They own my heart!
