Dear Queenie,
Why are women all the time crying about the way their men treat them? What do they expect if they get mixed up with a married man, or if they give a man what he wants without having any respect for themselves or demanding any kind of respect from him?
You don’t see men acting so stupid or hear them crying about it if they do.
I’m only 15 and I can see how women get themselves in trouble.
Queenie, why are they so stupid?—Teenage boy
Dear Teenage boy,
They say love is blind, which means a person in love, man or woman, tends to refuse to see faults in the person they love, or to overlook them, and to ignore signals that could mean their lover is not the perfect mate.
Men do this just as often as women, but they often cannot bear to admit it to anyone. However, judging from the amount of mail I get from men as well as women, and from news stories I read about jealous men assaulting, even murdering, the women they supposedly love, I’d say men are at least as stupid as women, maybe more so, when it comes to romance.
