I am not trying to make any one mad. I just have a few questions for Men.
I have a 21-year-old son and the way he thinks about women is not the way
his father and I raised him. So I would like to know some answers from men
to see if any other man thinks the way my son does. So here we go. Does
men really know what their mate really likes or really wants in life? I am not
talking about their favorite colors or shirt. Do men think that their mate is
weak or strong willed? My son wants his wife after they get married to stay
home. Does men want their mates help? Even if their mate earns more than
he does!
Most women can tell you what her mate wants. Why ? Two words. We
listen!! Women do not just listen with our ears, we listen with our hearts.
When you say your marriage vows to your mate one both become one.
You still are you and your mate is still your mate. Listen to your mate
as you would want someone to listen to you. This is a woman’s point of
view. Make each other happy as much as both of you can. Learn as much
as you can about each other.
Keeping the faith Would love for all to comment , if wish too.

Oh, wait, you asked the men. That precludes cogent answers ;P

Men do want help, but often they are raised to be the head of the household (21yo son). Plenty of times, the picture of marriage which evolves from this background is one of the wife dutifully caring for the home and the children while the husband trots off to make a living.
In today’s society, women earn almost as much as (and sometimes more than) men. Unless men are willing to drop the preconceived notion of the Cleaver’s marriage, they will be destined for a long search for a mate. In the event they are not discussing their view of marriage in advance of the wedding, it will end in divorce court.
It takes a certain kind of woman to stay home. That kind is getting harder and harder to find, as education and the option of single-parenthood is making them extinct.
Which still leaves your question I am gender-challenged to answer: Does men really know what their mate really likes or really wants in life?
