Men of Sodahead - what do you think women really want?

Women 18-25...A good time, two or more boyfriends at a time, freedom, gifts, guys who like to dance at clubs and no drama with boyfriends

Women 26-32...A serious boyfriend / fiancee, stable job, weekend with the girls and a little more peace

Women 32-40...Marriage, kids, rich husband, weekend getaways, family vacations.

Women over 40...A good time, two or more boyfriends at a time, freedom, gifts, guys who like to dance at clubs and no drama with boyfriends.

LoL - it's the circle of life.

They want everything they don't have, but if they get what they want they no longer want it. Simple idea and example is. A blonde doesn't like blonde hair. A currly haired lady wants stright hair, and vica versa. Though the're are exceptions to this rule of course ^_^.

Ofcourse looks and personality all comes together.but the main thing women want is...........everything.........

I have given up trying, it makes no sense.

You give me what I want every night!

If I did I would be a rich man!

A strong man. Compassionate and understanding to them, but a strong man.

Well...far be it from me to speak for women everywhere but...I just can’t believe that this has become so complicated.
I think that every person wants to be loved…to be significant (that they’re feelings count, they’re presence is crucial, that they matter in your life)…to be respected…to receive some reassurance...to feel the warmth of another person’s affection… to be loved…(yeah I know I said that twice…but that’s what it means) These things are so little to ask…and so easy to give.
I guess I'll be reading to see what I left out...

A man that's polite, listens, and takes advice.

Women want a living contradiction

They want a man to respect them, and treat them like dirt
They want a man to love their body, but d nto want ot believe when a man does
The want a man to love their personality, but will not respect them if they do

Women believe the objectivication of a gender is only applicable to them, and this is a tragedy, because it makes them believe men are pigs for loving the female form, but women are not for the opposite?

Women rarely know what they want, and when they get what they say they want and find that they never really wanted it, what then???

Wow - that's heavy. And it has the feeling of being one of those deeper truths in life.

Truth is all there is in the world that is worth a damn....

Ok...let's pick this apart a little bit.
1. They want a man to respect them, and treat them like dirt
~We don't WANT ment to treat us like dirt, however, I think because we are caregivers by nature, we have this inherent belief that we can change everyone, and therefore a man who does treat us like dirt seems more attractive, because now it's not a relationship, it's a project
2. They want a man to love their body, but d nto want ot believe when a man does
~We believe....when we say you're lying, etc....often times, we're just trying to pull more info out of you...flattery goes a long way!
3. The want a man to love their personality, but will not respect them if they do
~I have no comment for this, because all I ever want is for someone to like my personality.

In the long run, women want a friend. Someone they can trust as much as a girlfriend and someone they can love as much as they love themselves. ;)

- I agree on the "project" comment

- I think the problem with disbelief comes from insecurity

- The last one is just kind of puzzling to me

"The Last one"....

Well, tell me why there is always the cliche of the guy in the friend zone?

This is usually the guy who respects the woman's personality, so the thought on this is if a woman has a romantic relationship with this person he will cease to respect the woman in question....

I apologize for the typos... damn reading your copy and paste was painful, shame on me!!!

"I think because we are caregivers by nature, we have this inherent belief that we can change everyone, and therefore a man who does treat us like dirt seems more attractive, because now it's not a relationship, it's a project"

I cannot agree with this, totally, because when they do not change and the women do not seem to learn... it is obstinance...

"often times, we're just trying to pull more info out of you"

I believe it more to be a plague of insecurity, and women punish men for their insecurities..

"I have no comment for this, because all I ever want is for someone to like my personality."

You are not the majority of women, you are an exception to the rule...

I do not mean to flatter but of what I know of you, all be it little, I would absolutely chase you like Catholic Priests for Alter Boys...

Most women are also drama queens, so the "excitement" created from guys treating them like dirt feeds that part of them....luckily, I've never really experienced that. Also, we're afraid to be alone....the one "bad" relationship I was in, I knew I could be treated better, but I was just happy to be with someone, even knowing that i could do better. And, yes, we're insecure...that's a point that I was trying to convey, and forgot, I guess...but our insecurities, believe it or not, can be lessened by compliments from those that we love.
And, there's nothing wrong with a little flattery.
As for the typos...I was gonna fix them, but I didn't want to hurt your feelings and make you feel like I was grading an essay. LOL

I'm tellin' ya Hase, you have yet to be exposed to a real woman if that's what your past relationships has left you with. Not ALL women are like that. We're much more complex. Just like men.

Men are not complex....

:)

LOL. I'll give ya that one! ; )

Men are as complex as "clean sock / dirty sock" in my experience!

helll yeah!!!!!!

Men are the anti-compexity. We eat meat. Like sex.


Well thats about it.

I am sorry but exceptions know that they indeed are exceptions....

whatever hase......(wink) we're not all like that dear......i am so easy going...

Honesty, trustworthyness, absolute faithfulness, a future, relatively good looks, companionship, common interests, friendship, understanding. Thats all I can think of so far. Pretty much the same thing I want in a woman. That is if that's what we're talking about here.

"if that's what we're talking about here."

Anything goes, man! I think that the answers should be reflective of the personal priorities of those who respond.

I speak in terms of relationship wise then.

Isn't this a poll for men?

Yes, i believe it is. Very observant.

Why are women responding then?

I believe they are replying not commenting.

Hey hey hey, I ask the questions around here =P

Yes maam.

*ouch*

Sorry about the maam thing. I saw the pic and thought it must be a woman. Wasnt paying attention.

Well I am a woman, but I'm still not used to being called "ma'am" LoL
