Perfect Life Partner Is Your Complete Opposite

The more genetically different two people are, the more attracted they are to each other. Such conclusion was made by Brazilian scientists. They believe that choosing life partners, people tend to pick those with the most different genetic makeup from their own. How can this be possible? Don’t we usually fall for partners similar to us?
The key is that combination of two different gene pools increases the chances of conceiving strong and healthy offspring. We are programmed by nature to follow this principle when choosing life partners.
The scientists examined 90 real couples and 152 “virtual” couples, which were specifically created for the experiment. It was found that spouses generally do not share the major histocompatibility complexes (MHC). Similar observation, however, was not made in the “nonexisting” couples.
MHC is a large family of genes, which play an important role in the immune system and the development of immunity in vertebrates.
Professor Maria da Graca Bicalho commented on those observations saying that if MHC has no correlation with partner selection, then they should have received same set of data for both groups of couples. However, they observed that most of the real couples do not share the same set of genes. As this was a designed scientific experiment, this could not be just a coincidence.

One of my favourite greek songs

One in a million men

A real man gets in your heart, not in your face.
A real man takes time to listen. He values communication and respects the needs of others.
A real man sets priorities.
A real man researches all his options, lists his choices and thinks before making a decision.
A real man never makes decisions when his emotions are not under control. He would rather wait three days than risk overreacting.
A real man uses logic, compromise, and negotiation to solve problems.
A real man chooses his fights and knows the facts before he takes a stand.
A real man uses motivation rather than intimidation.
A real man doesn't offer excuses or blame others for his choices.
A real man knows that not everything in life is a crisis.
A real man doesn't need to raise his voice or upgrade his personality when company is around. He is consistent.
A real man doesn't brag. Time reveals what matters.
A real man accepts the challenges of being vulnerable and intimate. He knows the depth of his maturity and the length of his attention span are the only real measurements that count.
A real man values good manners. Humility is a strength not a weakness.
A real man is clean and guards his health.
A real man uses humor to enrich rather than ridicule. He can smile.
A real man uses his strengths and admits his weaknesses. He can ask for help.
A real man is honest. He neither creates delusions nor false hopes.
A real man is loyal. He values the trust people place in him.

One more try

And teacher

There are things

That I don't want to learn

Oh the last one I had

Made me cry

So I don't want to learn to

Hold you, touch you

Think that you're mine

Because it ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

So when you say that you need me

That you'll never leave me

I know you're wrong, you're not that strong

Let me go

Le Sonido del silencio

The song was used three times in the film The Graduate, played during the opening credits and the closing footage, and in the film Bobby, where it is played during Robert Kennedy's victory speech at the Ambassador Hotel, just before his assassination. It can also be heard in the last episodes of the Japanese dorama Taiyo to Umi no Kyoshitsu. It can also be heard in the comedy film Old School when Will Ferrell gets shot with a tranquilizer dart and falls into the pool going into a dream daze. In Watchmen the song is used on the soundtrack during the scene of The Comedian's funeral (incidentally, a character shown to be responsible for John F. Kennedy's assassination.)

Ubersexual: The New Masculine Ideal?

The American Dialect Society named "metrosexual" the "word of the year" for 2003 after marketing consultant Marian Salzman helped popularize it.

Now the "ubersexual" is replacing the metrosexual, Salzman writes in The Future of Men, a book she co-authored with Ira Matathia and Ann O'Reilly.

What's the difference between these two types of men?

In a study they wrote in 2003, the three trend spotters wrote that "One of the telltale signs of metrosexuals is their willingness to indulge themselves, whether by springing for a Prada suit or spending a couple of hours at a spa to get a massage and facial."

In contrast, they claim the ubersexual is less concerned with fashion and more inclined to develop his own sense of style.

"Compared with the metrosexual, the ubersexual is more into relationships than self," they say. "He dresses for himself more than for others (choosing a consistent personal style over fashion fads)."

Examples of Ubersexuals

Holding up actor George Clooney as an example, they say the ubersexual's "best friends are male; he doesn't consider the women in his life his 'buddies.'"

And the ubersexual is more concerned with principles and values. Bono, of the rock band U2, represents this, they say, by the way he campaigns to reduce poverty in Africa.

In short, the ubersexual possesses what the authors call "M-ness," a type of masculinity "that combines the best of traditional manliness (strength, honor, character) with positive traits traditionally associated with females (nurturance, communicativeness, cooperation)."

Although The Future of Men is based on interviews with 2,000 men nationwide, it is not an in-depth sociological analysis, as Salzman, a trained sociologist, readily admits.

"I'm in the business of marketing," she told WebMD. "The job of understanding men was undertaken from the perspective of how we can do a better job marketing to them. I have no apologies for that motivation."

Masculinity in Flux

But by arguing that the ubersexual is already succeeding the metrosexual, the authors of The Future of Men underscore an indisputable fact of life in the U.S. -- the concept of masculinity is in flux, leaving many confused about what it means to be a man.

"It was clear that men were questioning the feminization of men," said Salzman, explaining the origins of The Future of Men.

"We wrote the book to focus on the question, 'what is the byproduct of 40 years of increased rights for women?' The instability of the male role model has been a reaction to the rise of equal rights for women."

This is not the first time in American history that notions of masculinity have shifted.

"It seems like every time the country is in a crisis there's concern about masculinity," said Sonya Michel, a history professor at the University of Maryland and the author, with Robyn Muncy, of Engendered America: A Documentary History, 1865 to the Present.

"For example, during industrialization, skilled artisans started losing their jobs and men started to feel they were losing control. Again, during World War II, when it became clear that the U.S. was going to enter the war, people were wondering if American men were up to the task."

E. Anthony Rotundo, an instructor at Phillips Academy Andover, made a similar point in American Manhood: Transformations in Masculinity from the Revolution to the Modern Era. He stresses economic uncertainty as the cause of current confusion about masculinity.

"The great majority of American men can't support a household on their income," he tells WebMD. "Families with a couple of kids need two incomes, and that calls into question the idea that the man is the breadwinner."

The authors of The Future of Men, in contrast, say the feminist movement has posed the greatest challenge to traditional notions of masculinity.

"The women's movement has arguably had at least as big an impact on men as on women," they write.

From 'Nice Guy' to 'Integrated Male'

Robert Glover, PhD, a psychotherapist and marriage counselor, believes many men have responded to feminism by repudiating traditional masculine traits -- such as strength, assertiveness, and independence -- because they fear feminists may find those traits offensive. In an effort to please women, they transform themselves into sensitive, emotionally responsive "nice guys."

"They constantly ask themselves, 'how do I make sure the woman is happy and doesn't get upset with me?'" says Glover, author of No More Mr. Nice Guy.

This "nice guy syndrome," as he calls it, causes men to hide their masculine nature. And this, according to Glover, often repels women.

"The man believes he's doing everything right in terms of trying to make the woman happy, but her complaint is, 'I can't trust him,'" Glover says. "Men like this are not telling the truth about themselves because they don't want to upset women, but women walk away feeling that their men have no integrity, no consistency. They say things like, 'I don't know what he's really thinking.' Women get very frustrated by males who are always seeking to please them."

Glover tries to help men become "integrated" by recognizing their own needs. And his integrated man bears an uncanny resemblance to the ubersexual.

Honest and Direct

"The integrated man is honest," Glover said. "He's clear and direct in expressing his needs, and he makes his needs a priority. By making his needs a priority, a man doesn't need a woman to fill him up and make him happy. He is not an emotional vampire."

All this helps the integrated male develop the passion that is the hallmark of the ubersexual.

"Only when you put your priorities first can you have passion," said Glover.

Ironically, the ubersexual himself bears an uncanny resemblance to the traditional male of decades past - a more talkative Gary Cooper, perhaps, or a more emotionally expressive Humphrey Bogart. It's as though men have moved so far forward that they can afford to go backward to a time when men were distinctly manly.

The authors of The Future of Men agree.

"In many ways, [ubersexuals] mark a return to the positive characteristics of the Real Man of yesteryear (strong, resolute, fair) without having acquired too much of the self-doubt and insecurity that plagues so many of today's men," they write. "Even if they've never heard the term, they are by their very essence believers in their own M-ness."

Le Métrosexuel

Le monde des cosmétiques ne s'adresse plus uniquement aux femmes. L'industrie des produits de beauté s'intéresse en effet de plus en plus à un nouveau genre d'homme : le metrosexuel. A l'instar du célèbre footballeur David Beckham (ambassadeur de cette nouvelle tendance masculine), le metrosexuel est un homme qui sans pour autant faire l'impasse sur sa virilité prend particulièrement soin de son corps et de son look, cherche constamment à rester dans la tendance. Toute une gamme de produits cosmétiques en tout genre leur est dédiée, crème hydratante, nettoyant visage pour homme, exfoliant visage pour homme (gommage pour homme), gel de rasage spécial, gel antiride pour homme, défatiguant visage pour homme, auto bronzant visage, dédorant, shampoing... Cependant encore 75% de la gente masculine, n'ose pas se lancer dans cette nouvelle tendance, par peur peut être de se féminiser. Qu'on se le dise cela n'a rien de gay, la société telle que nous la connaissons aujourd'hui (parité homme/femme, nouveau modèle masculin présenté par les média, importance accordé à l'apparence) nous emmène inexorablement dans cette voie.

How do metrosexuals spend their money? Good question. Here’s a chart to show you how a metrosexual divides his money for the week:

The basic breakdowns on a $5000 monthly budget are:

• Fine Dining: 30%, or $1500. This is not your entire weekly food budget, in fact, that’s a little too stingy for a metrosexual. Food itself should be costing you around $50 a day average. Eat breakfast at home, make some scrambled eggs and toast, or cereal, whatever you like, BUT you must stop at a Starbucks, or Tim Hortons, to grab a fine Latte, Chai, Green tea, or whatever you prefer. Coffee shops are a metrosexual’s heaven. Bring your laptop and do your work to the coffee shop, or arrange informal meetings at a coffee shop. Also, for lunch and dinner, go a little extra and order a fine wine or cognac. This is a metrosexual’s success presentation!

• Style: 20% or $1000 a month. Every other week, treat yourself to a hair appointment, manicure (and pedicure if you wish), and also hit the gym 2-3 times a week, this should cost you around $100-$250 a month. Then you have $750-$900 to spend on clothing. Yes, this makes sense, you be buying some new clothes; suits, shirts, jeans, shoes, whatever, but this is important for you to maintain your style.

• Savings and Investments: 50% or $2500 a month. The rest of your money should be going to your investments, whether stocks, bonds, real estate, or businesses. Your mortgage should be paid with this money (and mortgages do count as an investment, it is real estate). The rest of the money you should put in some sort of savings, whether stocks or your savings account.

A metrosexual’s spending habits attribute to his success!

COCKTAILS

A tout âge, par tout temps, mais de préférence le soir, les cocktails se dégustent entre proches. Amis de la fête, des bons moments et des petits plaisirs, bonsoir ! Si les cocktails sont si recherchés, si prisés, si désirés, c'est parce qu'ils dépassent le simple cadre du contenu. Le cocktail permet de délier tout naturellement les langues, et ce avec ou sans alcool. Ils permettent également de laisser libre cours à sa créativité tant au niveau de la présentation, qu'au niveau du contenu. En effet, quel plaisir de se rassembler autour d'un bon verre, qui pour une fois sera raffiné et séducteur.
