yeah, I can see a lot of real life in your post, which suggests to me that sosn are extensions of wmens and THEIR value or at least , perceived value..."he is my son how dare you not find him attractive as he is????"
That's an interesting idea. I wonder if there is any correlation between how attractive/successful in dating women are and how attractive/successful in dating their sons are? For instance, do naturals come from hot women? It might make sense because of how important confidence is to males - maybe the mothers instill their confidence into them? The mothers are usually more involved in child raising, after all. I'm not at all trying to say this is the case, but it does raise the question.
I used to have a bad habit of bad body language, letting my head hang down and such. When I went over to a friend of mine's house, his mother would always correct me and tell me to stand up straight and hold my head up. Her son was a bit of a player and was considered a bit of a male hottie, so maybe in his case the mother WAS trying to make him more attractive to women.
I'm sure my mom tried to correct me too, but you know how it is about listening to your parents. My friend's mom GOT ON ME about it, though. She wasn't having that in her house. If she told me that, how much more did she instill into her son, who was definitely a lot more of a natural than I was?
