men and love

December 20, 2005

My heart hurts... Not really sure why. Maybe it's because I know this:
I just watched Pride and Predjudice with my friend Amanda from work. And it was as it should be. The men coming around properly, the family supporting each other, the daughters obeying their father's wishes, being asked for his daughters' hand after the proposal if she agreed to it... What I know is that men do not exist like that anymore. With post-modern times come post-modernized men who are more into womanizing than being a gentleman; and, of course, women who made men into women so they could be CEO's instead of shy maidens. I'm glad I have some right and say in life, but I think that we need to find our places again - and badly. However, I do not think it will ever be. Almost every man I've met is already ruined. Sexually, substantially or mentally. I'm not perfect, and came close to being ruined myself. Now that I've seen this movie, I now know the reason why I shall never marry concretely - because no man like that exists anymore. <3
