Who’s the prize in a relationship: men or women?

Question

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

There should be an option for both, this is how division and hate happens. I understand it's a simple post. But if girls are all about a big tall guy or tall and muscular it equates and connects to protection and security. Last time I checked, that's not some minute matter. I'm tired of the whole concept of women believing feminism is about women's rights when females bash each other. There is genocide going in Israel to Palestinians, a lot of girls care more about looking pretty online than even to bother posting a girl who just got legs blown off by the IDF and lost her parents that the holocaust Israel is committing. When women can't even support each other, how can we categorize and think who is the better one in a relationship? Women go through pregnancy, they have nurturing qualities, she helps lift up her man and other good attributes. Men want to be the providers, to lift her up, and support her when she feels emotional. Women nowadays try too hard to be powerful, strong, rude with men and guys. That's why guys don't want to be in relationships. I want women and girls to read this. Stop trying to be the dominant in a relationship 24/7. It's controlling, its annoying, its emasculating. If guys are called simps for showing love or incels for showing anger from his past with women. Then I will put a woman in her place and say she's a femcel for hating on men. While young women read stories of the past of gender wars and dissecting the current literature of feminism, women are trying to mould themselves into something they are not. This is why even in male combat sports like MMA or Boxing, there are different weight classes. You can't put Brock Lesnar (6ft3, 286 pnds) vs Floyd Mayweather (5'7, 150 pnds). This post is not to bash women. I will respect women to pursue their dreams and back them up. But I have a spine and I can't stand up if others insult me regardless of gender. The beauty of a good relationship is being on the same page. What's the problem is a guy wants to make his wife happy by cooking a delicious dinner, normalized by today's standards. But if a woman cooks for a man... that's considered oppression by modern day feminist standards. I'm not in a relationship right now because I am truly focusing on myself, 2023 sucked for me in terms of pursing women. The whole focus on myself is cliche but I truly mean it. Relationship is all about dynamics and men are usually the one's to lead the way. Of course, women want to be powerful and leaders. But from my experiences women in the work place as managers, teachers and taking on other roles of leaders tend to be the one's who were the rudest, most irrational and emotional. When you have a leader on the battle field you can't kill the enemy based on emotion.

Women will exhaust themselves out with trying to be a boss babe, posting for the gram, trying maintain fake friendships, being soo opinionated online about her confusing drivel. Heck, even the greatest male athletes had a breaking point with constant scrutiny, backlash, hate, different elements of life. It is not easy being a Michael Jordan, being a Derek Jeter, being a Tom Brady. I know some girl is going to read this and think I'm so sexist. I'm a believer in God, I don't care what people think online. If there are nights I have to clean up the house and cook for my wife I will do it because I love her. But some twisted women out there think a guy doing cooking/cleaning is him being a bitch and those same twisted women seek pleasure in being that dominant, that's unhealthy and women like that will never find true love.

Nothing in the world like a really good woman. Never let her go if you find one.

Avicenna · Answer

TBH, the question is really irrelevant, and not only because it's such a generalization. Both men and women are in a relationship because they want to be and get something out of it. Therefore, my answer is "both".

coachTanthony · Answer

I am the prize always. For others could be the woman lol

dynamicyandere · Answer

Both should be grateful to have found each other. Thinking any other way can lead to taking your partner for granted. Both should feel loved and appreciated.

Women are the prize. Women are kinder and more compassionate than men. Men are the same gender as all the greedy evil dictators like Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Vladimir Putin, Viktor Orbán, Kim Jung Un, Joseph Stalin and soon to be dictator in 2024 Donald Trump.

I know there's that "How often do you think about the Roman empire" nonsense meme on Tik Tok and Tim Pool said men think about it more because men worry about societal collapse and women are causing the collapse of western society and that's why women don't care as much about the roman empire. The Roman Empire was filled with disgusting misogynistic greedy emperors like Caligula who abused his sisters and had incestuous relations with Drusilla and Agrippina. Nero kidnapped a boy from their family and mutilate him and forced to wear a dress because he feel in love with the boy and looked at him like a woman. Tiberius masturbated to people getting tortured.

It's very common for misogynistic men to blame all the problems of the world on women. Back when men out preformed women in education they said it was because women are "stupid", "less logical", "more emotional" and "bad at math's". Now that women are outperforming men and they are allowed to have careers and don't need to marry a man to maintain a career the insecure misogynist like Tim Pool feel threaten and can't accept women are graduating more than men. They claim that it's due to western standard falling apart and feminism. But before they would just chalk it up to women being "stupid" when women were the ones who were less successful. When an intelligent woman talks about to a man she is called "bossy" "bitchy" and "badgering"

Women are doing better in life romantically and financially and it makes a lot of men feel insecure because they know they are not the prize. So I think women are the prize. They don't turn 30 years and old and lonely like men. There are still women who are beautiful and can still attract a man in there 30s. It's the men who hold to these misogynistic gender norms that end up falling because they promote people like Andrew Tate who is anti-intellectual and tells men not to go to college and not to improve themselves intellectual, so those men up becoming stagnant and bitter and lonely incel and they're mad at guys who can get laid and women because women are in a happy relationship and successful.

aceleon · Answer

this generation who is full of weaklings and pathetic excuses for mens are the result of the guys who saw womans as prize and ignoring their own value out of desperation.

if you see woman as a prize you are doomed to fail, either be dumped, cheated or live with a burden who also constantly nags or complains, has little to no respect towards you and most likely thinks herself higher then you let alone equal.

man are the prize but this generations idiots are too weak to see that, they are either brainwashed with all the feminism crap or they are too horny to put themselves any real value.

1ash-Silver · Answer

I don't like viewing people as prizes. I think it can be disrespectful just to hear it coming from someone , if I was told that I am a prize it would make me assume that whoever said it thinks that they got me and that I am something that you can just get like that. I have a lot of wonderful women in my life but calling them a prize wouldn't sit right with me. Men that are good should not be compared to Women that are good.

I believe that men and women play vital roles in this world. We need each other or else we'll be miserable at best.

hahahmm · Answer

The one who stands to lose the most in divorce. 90% of divorces are started by the woman. It's simple math although some of you try to complicate things by claiming objectivity doesn't have a role (unless it benefits women, of course). But going back to my first statement, it also follows that the more traditional the man, and the more traditional the relationship: the more valuable the man is.

Women have value too but that value is all in a man's head. While most of a man's value is actually in the real world. So they both have value but for very different reasons.

smne35 · Answer

You both are to each other, when you start to elevate one over the other, might as well start going your separate way, when two people come together in love it's equal, had to be for it to be successful, treat each other with mutual respect and realize that both of you together is twice as strong and not see yourselves or feel as, he or she is lucky to have a catch like me, that's self centered to think that way, instead consider yourself fortunate that you both found each other and think highly enough of each other to develop and build a loving relationship, you can't elevate yourself over your partner that's not love but kind of shallow in my view so your both the prize equally,

Angelo75 · Answer

Regretfully, according to "the media" and "social media" which mainly is the thing that people blindly follows nowadays, a relationship is based on either "getting a status" nowadays.
This while it's supposed to be about just "giving to the one you love".
And ofcourse both parties should be focussed on "giving" to the one they love.

So in fact it's "the relationship" that is supposed to be the price.
"Being in something beautiful" is supposed to be the price.

Not what either party gets out of it.

systemsareyo · Answer

I said me (as a man) because the amount of women who have no courage to ask a man out or to flirt with a man, you know, I'm glad I've stayed single and even if a chick looks my way or stares at me, and it's happened countless times: if she ain't even going to be upfront, I don't bother and I don't make the first move, lol that's my attitude. Lol. It's worked for me so well, that's why I'm glad I'm single. I don't go hat in hand hard and fast to some woman saying "hey you wanna go out" or "hey you're xxx do you wanna exchange numbers" lol. 👀🫢🫠 So I just don't bother lol. The prize is me, a man 😀🥳

sage2021 · Answer

I chose men.

I love to see a man doing manly things around the house or with a car. Like how they can do plumbing under the sinks, fix things, all the stuff I cannot do.
And I love how they love me, that is the one's that stick around long enough to get to know me.

HiveBee · Answer

I think there are only certain individuals who are "prizes" and everyone else is just being settled for.

The "prizes" among men are much more rare than among women. I think most men are satisfied to settle with their average woman.

But I think women are not happy when they settle, and most are settling.

So the men who are the prize are much more rare so in that sense I think the ideal man is much more valuable than the ideal woman.

Biancam13 · Answer

Both parties are always the prize. Both are equal in value and worth. In fact, I find this notion of "the prize" in any relationship to be about ego and stupid mind games. Like we want to have the upper hand so that we don't get hurt by the other person. But it shouldn't be about that. We don't have the concept of "the prize" in friendships, so why should we have it in romantic relationships?

Lionman95 · Answer

I think everybody should see themselves as the prize to gain and ask themselves the question. Would I be happy if I got that prize? Live life depending on your answer is the yes than things are great is it no then work for it to be a yes.
I don´t see much of a benefit to say one sex is the prize since it only develops entitlement and leads to the problems being overlooked or a wrong view on the process of finding a partner.

RingOfFire · Answer

Women are the prize. For women, men are a dime a dozen. They can have one any time they want (maybe not the one they really want, but some man).

Men, on the other hand need to work at it if they want a women because women (especially the more desirable ones) are a lot less desperate.

sawno · Answer

Voted men in the poll just because in society its easier to get a man to have sex with you than it is to get him to be loyal. But in reality if the relationship is well balanced both partners consider their partner to be the prize.

PeachyPie93 · Answer

Neither is the prize.  Both could be a prize if they are great people and know how to treat one and other. But more often than not people are crap and not worth the time or effort.

MysteriousDarkness · Answer

Both are the prize or neither are the prize. If person A is the prize then person B has to do the work to try to win them like they are a medal, trophy, plaque etc. We are different from other animals and for that the guy shounot do all the work.

Pudsmucker · Answer

You picture this as a prize a winner gets all. Male or female. I look at it this way you both win if you have a good relationship. Relationship is a companionship it's not 50/50 it could be 40/20 or 70/35 it doesn't matter. Both of you are the prize.

Joshydavid25 · Answer

You know why two people come together to make one? Because they both fit together like two pieces of the puzzle perfect complimenting together. This question reeks of gender division and bias..

LazerBean · Answer

A husband and wife should prize eachother. If they don't, the relationship is an inevitable failure.

Anonymous · Answer

Both / neither. It depends on the couple.

By the way, the "male" response here that you found to be a "breath of fresh air" is from a woman. She's been pretending to be a male on GAG for months and posting misandry here pretty much every day, so take her response for what it's worth.

The republicucks would say "well, trump, since he was president, and he's trump", right?

DJB72 · Answer

Women, but that doesn't mean they don't need to bring something of value to the table.

Screenwriter · Answer

I would think it depends on the people being considered. IN some cases it will be the man and in others the woman.  And it's subjective too. It's according to who's doing the judging.

None or both.

serious_miss419 · Answer

Men and woman can’t be compared to one another. Neither is better. One isn’t greater or less. The only thing in common is our species and the only difference is our gender, x and Y.

That’s it.

If girls are a prize than it is a prize that keeps taking. Which is why I say men are the prize.

None. Neither are objects to be taken. Or otherwise both, as both are valuable.

SolitarySolace · Answer

Well if men are meant to still follow the gender norms and cater to women, than men are the "prize" because women are having everything paid for and done for them.

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

The women is but that's only under the assumption she's a godly christian woman. The Bible teaches a man gains favor from God if he finds a godly wife and that a prudent wife is a from the lord.

Obviously both people should enjoy their partner. If both people don't win, neither do.

Preferably no one? Because that would mean the other one is  paying the price .

I always say this. For a woman to have sex is much easier than a man too. A woman can go to a bar and have sex the same night, for men it's not as easy.

If you call either one prize, your relationship is doomed. The ones who think they are the prize will eventually think they can do better. Never date someone who thinks that they are settling for you.
