Women have a natural self-esteem issue. They need attention, money, and sex, and to be humored inorder to even feel good about themselves. ^^Look deep down inside and tell me if that's true for you.
As for money, well I have my own, so I don't need any from a man. As for attention, I don't really need it, but it is good to get it from my man. As for sex, I don't need it, but it is good to get. A need is something that you would die without. A want is a desire.
good god, boys, what's with the never-ending low opinion of women in general? since becoming mod over here, the sheer amount of bs i've read is astounding.
i do have a self esteem issue, but thats a product of my past more than of being female. i find that my bfs occasional reinforcement/positive comments do help me out, but mostly the fact htat hes madly in love with me helps me feel better... because to get anybody half as amazing and wonderful as he is, i cant be a complete fuck up
The answer to that question could probably take up a whole novel if anyone knows it... I think the whole ultra-PC thing that's been allowed to outlive its usefulness is finally starting to get a well deserved beating. People will eventually explode when they're forced to walk on eggshells all the time and something as petty as a choice of word can spark a lynching. It kind of sucks that our side pushed too hard on the women's rights stuff, like a rebellious little teen aged brat, because we are going to have to pay for the backlash and I personally didn't do anything. Hopefully it won't be too bad. At least this one doesn't want to throw acid on anyone's face.
well, you know, i never had any idea how much the mods here dealt with. it's amazing. truly. but it's not "walking on eggshells" really. it's just people being mean, really, in the end. men and women are both insecure. it's the human animal. it's a part of being alive and wanting to be appreciated and/or loved. it's amazing.
Sorry, I was talking more globally (at least the westernized part) as opposed to just hipforums. Shoulda specified. I'm glad you're enjoying your new mod duties. Since we're in the women's forum though, let's have a pillow fight and talk about our boobs.
pfft. it's still a sweeping statement about a massive portion of the population. globally or not. everyone has emotional needs to be met and has different feelings about their success in achieving them. it's like saying all men envy women's ability to have chidren so they fight to control every aspect of it that they can. i mean, globally speaking.
How about this. People are individuals. Naturally humans feel like they need things like attention and sex. Doesn't necessarily mean they are insecure. Everyone is different, so don't generalize a group of people. Really, that was really insulting.
same thing with me. I was having dinner with my dad today. We never really talk that much, my parents got divorced when I was 4 and we just never really had that father-daughter relationship. We had an amazing time tonight and talked a lot about everything, it was really nice, but when I was younger I would always get so sad that I didnt have that bond and that connection and I really longed for it, still is something I wish I had more of when I was growing up, because the lack of it, made me really crave for attention from men and any attention was good enough. I am still very needy of attention, I'm working on it, but I now know the difference between the attention that comes with love and attention that comes with interest. I think we all, as human beings that we are, need attention and need love. There are just certain degrees of it that make it healthy or unhealthy.
Thats not true for me. I dont need money, i just steal once in a while when i need something. I dont need attention, and i already dont get sex so i dont need that either. I do have a problem with the way i look but my bf always makes me feel better when he kisses me and tells me how beautiful i am and how much he loves me. When he says those things it makes me feel so much better.
there's such a huge range of very intimate and very specific reasons for people to act and feel the way they do. to patch together some convenient pigeonhole based on beloved social biases for something so wide ranging is a mistake.
