What a man, what a man, what a mighty good man

I feel like I will never meet the man of my dreams! Does he even exist? I was definitely born in the wrong era! I just want a man who takes initiative, who doesn't need a mother or a girlfriend encouraging him every step of the way. I want someone who is self motivated, and who stands up for what he believes in. I want a man who is a gentleman, who takes the lead. Anyone who knows me knows I can definitely take the lead if I need to, but the thing is, I don't want to all the time, I don't want to get married an end up babysitting my husband the rest of my life. I want to go to work knowing that if he has a day off he will take the initiative to clean up around the house and get things done, without me leaving notes, or texting to remind him. I really don't think that is too much to ask... I want a partner.

This rant is brought to you by the election! Haha I saw this statistic and I was super proud of my gender, but then at the same time I was overcome with a fear that I will never find what I am looking for! Men of my generation are more interested in video games, and golf then getting things done and working hard to reach their dreams. Women have worked hard to get where we are in the world today, as women become more successful men become less successful, and less motivated. Why?

Why can't men and women both be successful an motivated? Does it really have to be one or the other? Honestly I'd I had to choose between my success or my future husband's I'd definitely choose his! I want to feel taken care of. I know I can take care of myself, and I will do my part, so I want him to do his part too!

Step it up men, I am not settling, so help me not end up a spinster!
