Women never expected a man to see or understand anything they did not want him to.

One doesn't expect a man to look his best then.

"You are not the sort of son I would expect such a man to have."

He would expect such a man to know as much.

How can you expect a man to live with someone like that?

It wasn't fair of me, I thought, to have expected a man with seven children to risk his life.

Trouble is, you can't expect a man to change himself.

Was he only used, then, to women who expected a man always to do the paying?

Clearly, he didn't expect a man who couldn't see to put up much of a fight.

You can't expect men that old to do all the fighting.
