    Ladies- If you could give one single bit of advice to the male population, what would you tell them?

    Don't shave... do shave... no flip flops... pro flip flops...
    What say you, ladies?

    In a relationship or marriage, always make it a point to communicate!  And I don't mean talking about goofy stuff like whether or not you liked an episode of Family Guy.  I mean sit down with her and share your thoughts, problems, and concerns with her.  She wants to know she is appreciated and wants to be there for you when you need someone to lean on.

    Communication and listening...........Always listen to your partner always!  Communication is the key to a happy relationship.  If you have that even when you have problems you will be able to talk them through peacefully!

    Be strong enough to sometimes say NO. 

    It's good to compromise and be part of the give-and-take that a couple share. But women don't like (or respect) a push-over, or someone who constantly subjugates their wishes/hopes/desires to their spouse. 

    Don't be afraid to call your loved one's on their s*#t.  Now THAT's honest communication.

    don't keep secrets and do something you both like if you don't know that then try to learn what the other likes. You can never go wrong with asking questions so long as you mention yourself every now and then you don't want to give the impression that your keeping secrets!

    I have to put my two cents in here, i am a straight male but a lot of single men may be single forever just because of the pure fact that they think the mountain is greener on the other side. When in reality if you have been in a relationship for years happily, its almost impossible to just flop and hate each other. All it takes is compromise and understanding your spouses needs and visa versa. No one can get 100% of what they want and think they are going to be happy forever. Have to at least meet in the middle and work things out together, shape and form with each other.My girl is my favorite person,best friend, and some one i could spend my entire day in bed with.

    Be assertive. Not aggressive, not passive but assertive.

    That way problems are dealt with straight away, compromises can be made and she will respect you for being honest and a man.

    It will feel like your contributing to the relationship, to both of you and make you stronger. Rather than stewing, brooding or keeping secrets until it's too late and mountains have formed out of mole hills.

    i would tell them that everyone one wants to BE ENOUGH. this means that they are important enough to have your respect and consideration.  that before you do anything you would consider the effect it would have on them.

    If a girl tells you she loves you, don't go out with her best friend. That will only make her mad at you and her best friend.

    Don't leave the toilet seat up
    Put a new toilet roll on when needed
    Wash the sheets
    Wash up
    Let  the dog in when it scratches at the door.
    and never ever tell her she's put on weight

    Stop acting like your so good that you don't have to committ but it's expected that a sense of committment is given to you.  To say I am going to still mess around because that is what we do, but then say you should only be with me.  Grow up, if you respect me and say you love me, then I should be enough. You are enough for me, so stop the cheating.

    Remember that your woman will always multiply and make better whatever you give her...

    Give her your sperm - she'll give you a baby
    Give her a house - she'll make you a home
    Give her some food - she'll make you a meal
    Give her a smile - she'll give you her heart
    So if you give her any cr*p...be prepared to receive a whole ton of sh*!

    But seriously, the key is appreciation - make her feel like you appreciate everything she does to support your relationship, your home, you family. Make her feel appreciated and she'll also feel respected, valued and loved - she will take a bullet for you.

    And never EVER underestimate the value of a hand brushing across her back as you pass in the hallway, or a big squishy cuddle when you come home at the end of the day, or sweeping hair out of her face when she's busy. This is what we like to call a "gesture of love" - nope, it's not foreplay.

    Chivalry is NOT dead. Unless she specifically tells you not to, there's nothing sexist about opening/holding doors, pulling out chairs, and helping her get her coat on. If she refuses it, fine; but until she does, assume she'll love you more for showing you care.

    I would tell people not to underestimate the power of small acts of kindness. A person can change someones entire day by holding the door for them as they pass by or smiling at them and saying "thank you." These gestures seem small but they can have a big impact upon people. I believe the population would be happier if more individuals simply practiced being nice to others:)

    Learn the nature of yourself...of a man...learn the nature of a woman...and then look at things not from an emotional standpoint...but through an understanding of the nature of a woman versus your nature. Most women don't even understand that about themselves, much less the man and vice versa. I look to the Bible for my understanding of nature, but there is plenty of information out there to be found where you could study up on this in the scientific and physiological communities. The basis of our nature drives everything we do and in every situation from intimate to group settings to how we handle pleasure and pain and parenting, etc. It makes life a lot simpler when you learn this.

    It is better not to under-estimate us. This is the biggest problem of Asian countries that male always over-estimate themselves. They think that women are inferior or sleeping beauty or second sex.
