2. You Can’t Change HimThe primary point that was missing was this: Be Submissive, Not Challenging. The one vital thing women most often fail to understand about men is that men are made for conflict. When we are challenged, we instinctively want to vanquish and crush the opponent, no matter who it is. But bat your eyelashes and ask for something sweetly, and it makes us want to launch a thousand ships on your behalf.

Things women should know about men
This isn't the list of 50 things I would compile, but it's not bad place to start. Here are some of the particularly good bits of advice:

Good call on your add. I will either blindly bash her psyche into rubble, she will submit, or the former until the latter. There is no other way. But a demure request, from a lady to a lord, and I will go to hell and collect a head from one of the princes there, if she probably only wants the jewels and precious metals from the crown. Women are weird that way.
The thing is, with women who don't submit willingly, easily, it is just a game for me. I don't care either way, I get what I need, and often what I want, either way. Ever played tug of war with a puppy? Yeah. Only I'm a 300 pound puppy. I'm king, don't doubt it, in my (her*) castle. A fool of a king, but... fuck off.
*One thing men should know, no matter who bought the home? It is hers. Understand that when you marry a woman. Which of the Gabor sisters said it... Zsa Zsa? Something about being a great housekeeper. Every time she divorced, she kept the house. Even in native cultures this was true.
Utter bullshit, Doom. I work my ass off to pay for our house. She lives here, but I have veto power over anything that happens. Luckily, though, I married a woman with great taste.
First time I've been at your site.

That certainly explains a lot about the behavior of men on the internet, doesn't it?
Have you seen the Sprint commercial that depicts Husband/Dad as a hamster living in a plastic ball?

Vox, your comment puts me in mind of an observation that Jeff Cooper made - that the more manly the man, the easier it is for a womanly woman to wrap him around her finger.
The problem being the shortage of womanly women.
"men are made for conflict"
such a great point and it gets beat out of us men everywhere. by internalizing that, and growing to it, you outclass 98% of men but you find yourself at the top and very much alone. if you want to be a superior man in our society, then you MUST get used to being alone at times, personally and professionally.
Whoooooosshhhhhhh.
That's the sound of feminism-indoctrinated women everywhere ignoring all 50 of those pieces of advice, especially 25, 36, and 47, as it flies right over their (short-haired) heads.
Your selections are good, but I find a lot of the rest of the list somewhat depressing.
On the "You can't change him" topic, the author of the linked piece writes: " And if you do manage to get it done, he’ll figure it out and resent you for it." I'd rewrite that to "And if you do manage to change him, you'll resent him for it." But, maybe his way of saying it has a better chance of getting through to women.
Personally, I like this one:
8. You Can’t Bombard Him The Second He Walks In The Door
My wife doesn't do this to me (anymore, she learned a while back), but the kids sometimes still do. The world must be short of competent men, because if a guy is half-way competent, by the time he's 30, everybody wants a piece of him. His money, his time, his attention... every frickin' time you turn around, somebody wants you to do something for them. Well, it's certainly better than being ignored, but it can get annoying, and dumping another batch of stuff onto his plate isn't going to earn you any points, especially if you're trying to get consideration as wife material. A guy will want a wife who can help him out, run the household at least.
And once you're married... well, if you're constantly dragging his attention away from work to help you out with crap you should be able to handle, don't blame him if someone else gets the promotion and big salary. I saw that a lot with my colleagues. Wife constantly calling, needing help with the stupidest things...
I don't care if you work your ass off for it. It's her house. Ask a judge.
Tommy,
What a name. Oh, and piss off. Yeah, come to think of it, it does sound pretty gay. But still, my name isn't Tommy, and fuck off.
Ask a judge? That's not what you said the time. Self fulfilling prophecy. If you think that, it will be.

Sounds like Valerius Magnus.
and it makes us want to launch a thousand ships on your behalf
It also makes us want to launch our male hips on your behalf.
Or into your lower half.
Read the comments for the link you've provided. As expected, the sexism police attacked with their pitifully irrational and shallow criticism.
Laughed out loud at 28. Mrs Tank got a short haircut once. EVERYONE was telling her how great it looked. When we were alone, I told her, no, it's much better long and that's the way I love her. She let it grow out, and it's still long and rich and beautiful 35 years later. Love that girl.
The problem with lists like this is it will fall on deaf ears, women don't want to do anything to be more likable, they want to change men to have different tastes through force.

The best paragraph describing a man natural response to a woman's attitude I've ever seen.

Conscientia Republicae,
You, my friend, and I do use the term friend lightly as I really don't like idiots, are headed to court. And you will lose "your house". While someone like I used to be will be enjoying the fruits of your labor, on top of your wife, now ex-wife, or soon to be. Didn't really care which back when. Idiot.
Tommy,
Are you really Vox. The name is so fake, reads like fiction. And you sound like Vox. Or you are a poseur. Just curious, but what I said remains.
Doom,
I have apparently offended you. Your words cut me to the quick. You disagree that if you spend your life thinking that your house belongs to your wife, it will? You are telling me that I am guaranteed to head to court because I believe that the house I work for is mine?
if I were to go through life thinking that at any time my wife will leave me for Raul the gardener, and that attitude bleeds through in my dealings with my wife, it probably has a greater chance of happening. If I treat my wife as my wife, my house as my house and my kids as my kids, and that attitude of assumed success and mastery bleeds through in my dealings with my wife, it will probably be so. I am confident. If my wife leaves me, I will find another. Younger, hotter and superior in every way. I wouldn't succeed in my current profession if I acted like you think I should act.
