Many women dream of a real man, a hero and protector who, if necessary, will move mountains for them. He must also understand flowers and women's perfume so as not to make a mistake with a gift, predict when a lady has a headache, and be ready to endlessly discuss her difficult relationships with colleagues - just like a best friend. However, real men rarely combine incompatible qualities. They are also stern, secretive, but at the same time simple. From this book you will learn what men, young and experienced, married and confirmed bachelors, actually think about love, sex and “male” responsibilities. You will get acquainted with the history of the institution of marriage, from ancient times to the 21st century. And using the example of real families, you will see whether a fair distribution of housework and childcare responsibilities is possible.
