Why is it that some men think it is OK to do whatever they want, like go out and stay out all night and not tell you anything, and expect you to ‘clock-in and out’ with them?

I’ve known plenty of women who go out with their friends and don’t tell where they’re going or where they’ve been. However, in a relationship, this is something that needs to be addressed. It could simply be that the one who goes out simply enjoys time out with friends and doesn’t want to feel like ‘reporting in’ like he/she did with mom and dad, or it could be worse: cheating, etc.

Men who stay out all night and don’t tell you anything are usually doing something wrong, so they don’t want to tell you. They want you to ‘clock in and out’ because they fear you are doing the same thing. Believe me, I’ve had it happen many times.

Probably for the same reasons some women think those behaviors are acceptable for them.

Why do some women do the same thing?

‘Some’ men still believe in the myth of male freedom–that they must not ‘submit’ to the desires of any woman, lest they become weak. I used to wonder why men seemed to relish the company of other males, to the exclusion of females. By ‘company,’ I mean the talking, hanging around, etc. It seemed to me that women were to be chased, conquered, and bragged about around the proverbial fire that only other guys were invited to. That being said, things have changed some since I was 20, not a lot, but some. It seems like some men are also great, loving communicators, who respect both men and women. The problem lies in with whom you choose to spend your valuable time. Find someone who treats you the way you treat them. As long as you are honorable, it seems like a win-win situation.

Some of us are taught by our fathers that disobeying and mistreating our significant others is to be desired. Then it’s reinforced in our peer groups, where romantic men are considered whipped and weak. Basically we, like women, are basically selfish beings who look out for ourselves and our fun first. Women are less likely to do so though because of a fear of losing her man and a natural need for comfort. But I know many a female that has no problem in engaging in the above activities either. Perhaps more power grabbed by women means they will force men to respect them more by increasing their options.

There have been some evolutionary psychology theorist who put forward the theory that men are sub-conciously concerned with women becoming pregnant by another man with out there knowledge. Since a women can only be birth one man’s child at a time, men feel the need to protect that resource. Women do not feel as protect of men becuase men can father several childern, so as long as men come around food and a pay check and do not give it to another woman, women are not losing out on anything. It could also be that women just do not ask where they are going? Men know what they are doing, they do not have to worry where they are and if they are in danger. They can not know that about their woman without asking. Of course this is true the other way around.

If my husband tried that kind of hypocritical behavior, he would be in really deep doo-doo (if you get my drift). Only a woman with little or no self worth would allow that kind of imbalance to exist in a relationship. And in my mind, if a man won’t tell where he’s been, but wants his woman to keep a time clock, he’s up to something!!

We don’t tell women anything when stuff like that happens because thats just how we are. It has nothing do if we are up to something. And to help you out a bit, anytime we are up to something we start talking alot to cover up what we are doing with bullsh-t. Then we cover that bullsh-t with more bullsh-t. But the main mistake we make is we tend to forget what it was we said..(laughing)..thats when we get caught…

I think most men who date women who constantly check up on them have a basic insecurity issue. Most of the women I have dated always wanted to know when I was coming home and they did check up on me. I think women do that to prove to herself that her man is not out somewhere with another woman.
