Why do men need to be supportive for women in a relationship but never the other way around?

[Deserter]

Women interpret it as the man wanting her to be his therapist or mother. Why are women like this?

In a good relationship, you should support EACH OTHER… and there are women that do support their husbands and I don’t mean financially although most couples I know, both spouses work and contribute to the family/ household…

Don't know. Can't relate and I don't personally know of anyone who does that. It's probably mostly a problem for relationships that are exclusively motivated by sex.

female expectation has skyrocketted for the past decades. our society has conditioned us to believe that women are the PRICE and we must work hard to keep them around. when in reality its the other way around

It should always go both ways, relationships are about meeting in the middle, sometimes for compromise sure but you need to both support each other to be healthy

I've always heard it the other way around. That women need to be supportive of their man. Even though it should be both ways.
