Feminism Quote by Alex Altman

“By communicating your needs with a man, you need to make a “request.” This gives him freedom from his feelings. When you make a request, you allow the man to want to fix the problem; there’s no more mystery to the problem. Men just want to know how they can make you happy.” quote by Alex Altman
