It's My Table

I mean, who started this? What effeminate man, started this whole thing about what does a woman bring to the table? What table? It's my table. I built it or I bought it, and I furnish it.

I provide the banquet. I provide the feast. That's my table. I don't need someone to bring something to it. You're a guest at my table.

That's what a man does. You provide. Everything that you acquire, everything that you accumulate, everything that you achieve, you're supposed to be achieving for the sake of being able to provide. That's the nature of a man, to provide. Where where's your hospitality?

Can you imagine? This isn't a potluck. This is my feast. This is my banquet that I'm providing for for my guests. All I expect from a from a guest is that they'd be a respectable and a respectful guest, a pleasant guest.

That's all I ask. You don't have to bring something. If I need you to bring something to my table, then I'm not ready to have guests. My I haven't prepared my feast. I haven't prepared my banquet, and I'm not ready to entertain anyone.

But if I'm ready to entertain anyone, then I sure don't need you to bring anything. I'm the one who's providing. I know all you have to do is be appreciative. That's the only thing that's required. And if I do my job properly as a host, then it's very easy for you to do your job as a guest.

That's the nature of it. This whole, concept of what do you bring to the table. And you think that's manly? To declare to the woman that you need something? Do you need her to bring something to the table because you you you're inadequate without her bringing something?

No. You're the one who provides. That's supposed to be the the nature of the relationship. You provide, and she's appreciative and respectful and respectable. The same way that you would want anyone at your, dinner table to be respectable and to be respectful.

That's all that's required. But you don't expect people to bring their own dish when you have invited them to a feast. You invited them to a banquet. That's not good manners. So this is very poor manners in my opinion, and it's very unmasculine.

It's very unmanly, to ask women what they bring to the table and to ask them to bring anything to the table, except for their own good manners.
