I won’t lie and say this idea was all my own. I was completely and totally inspired by another Odyssey article that asked women what they liked most about men. I put my own little twist and set out to find answers to one question: “If you could say anything to women, what would it be?”

I only asked men, and I am keeping everything anonymous besides the answers that were provided. There are going to be some crude answers I didn’t censor unless it was an actual swear word.

To get a good data set, I asked men that I knew on Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram to volunteer answers and also went to the anonymous app Whisper (which produced a lot more answers). Without further ado, here are the answers I received:

1. I’m glad God created women. They are beautiful and magical.
2. Suck, don’t blow.
3. If you make everything a scandal, then nothing is. Stop overreacting. You're devaluing your cause.
4. Don't look the other way if things get tough. If you expect to be treated as an equal in a relationship, you must take an equal part in making it work.
5. You are not alone and there will always be someone there for you.
6. I’m sorry society has prioritized male gratification over your comfort and safety...some men do want to change, but they have a lot of deprogramming that needs to be done. Be patient.
7. Submit.
8. Don’t play games. If he’s ready to settle down, you playing games is going to ruin whatever you have and ruin that man for another.
9. Shut up and blow me already.
10. Thank you.
11. You are beautiful no matter what size, shape, or color.
12. You look gorgeous.
13. You’re much better than society makes you feel.
14. You’re underrated but you have my respect.
15. Worry less about your appearance and more about your personality.
16. Why are you so mean to other women?
17. Why do you wear basically no clothes, then walk around in below freezing weather?
18. You can do great things if you believe in yourself and work hard. You don’t need a man to be great.
19. Show more skin!
20. Be mine forever.
21. Always remember that no matter what you are you and you are awesome.
22. Love yourself because everyone thinks there’s a standard of beauty.
23. Get on your knees.
24. They look like goddesses.
25. Stop being so flaky.
26. We are not above you, but equal on all planes.
27. Give it up more.
28. Don’t let any guy treat you badly because there’s a guy out there that would do anything to make you happy.
29. Wanna cuddle?
30. Women are flawed like men. None of you are better or worse. Get your act together and stop being cliquey hypocrites. It takes both sides to understand the problems and fix them.
31. You’re all beautiful and strong and in my eyes are already above men.
32. Fight for what’s yours...it seems men are the enemy nowadays but not all are and not all have been.
33. You’re stronger than we are in ways we can’t even compete. I’m in awe of you.
34. Women are superior.
35. Focus more on your personality and your spirituality. Beauty is nice, but it decays.
36. There are still good men out there. You just have to get past the boys.
37. You’re beautiful, sexy people.
38. Don’t overcomplicate things.
39. You are beautiful.
40. I’m not hitting on you. It’s just who I am.
41. I’m sorry for what our current administration is doing to you.
42. Be more confident. There are way too many beautiful women out there that think they are ugly, fat, or unappealing in some way.
43. I hope you have a better day today than you did yesterday.
44. Knees.
45. Let’s chill.
46. How you doin’?
47. We need you more than you need us.
48. It’s okay to be you. It doesn’t need to be at the expense of mankind. (Don’t take revenge. I had to ask for an elaboration.)
49. If you ask us if you look fat in something, we’ll always answer ‘no.’ We’re not falling into that trap!
50. Men have feelings, too, you know.
51. Stop forgiving men for treating you like s**t!
52. Stop being entitled.
