Do women value verbal praise more than men? Us women have to stop being satisfied with phony compliments?

[Anonymous]

Many women are happy and totally satisfied belly full to hear someone tell them they ate the best at something, amazing and beautiful and whatever else. And they are eager to be flattered.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think women have this vice more often than men. Its so easy to tell a girl what will make her feel invincible. Even if its all lies.

She will believe you. Examples: you are good at sex, you are so beautiful, you deserve a handsome rich man who loves you.

Somethings wrong with that.

Excessive flattery is usually not genuine, but some women can't accept any compliments at all and are suspicious of any praise. Then they'll complain is they DON'T get any ! So it seems it's all about how real and honest you, the woman, think the man is when he praises you, an why he's doing it.

As with anything, timing is the only thing, and you shouldn't be gullible enough to believe things said only in the heat of the moment. If a guy says "you're an amazing kisser" the first time he kisses you, but doesn't keep coming back for more, then you know he was just buttering you up.

I dont think ypu get what im putting down. Its amuch deeper question that that

[loveslongnails]

I understand what you're saying - you want women to not be impressed with superficial compliments from men and allow themselves to be manipulated, influenced or persuaded by their false words. You want them to realize the shallow nature of them and not accept them as some sort of sincere, meaningful admiration. That about right?

i think women are more emotional and emotions can better be transported with words than with actions. i feel like girls often prefer some fuzzy romantic bullshit blathering over something that's actually real but less vocal.

Haha.. Im very emotional but i just learn to not think emotions are the guide for everything

@Js9etbr well that's rather untypical for a girl in my experience xD

[Js9etbr]

Yep. We need wisdom. Guidance. Rules. For instance I am Christian. I do not fornicate. Many women lack even a father who will guide them. People don't want to parent but want to have children. Let the nannies and teachers raise them. Utter rubbish. I wasn't homeschooled but I acquired mentors in my adulthood and now I know a lot.

We need father fugures if the fathers refuse to parent.

@Js9etbr is there something wrong with expressing your sexuality? i mean if you don't "want" to have sex, cause it's just not something that you'd like, there's nothing wrong with that. but if you're into it, i see nothing wrong with acting on it. we don't live in times of goat herders anymore. we have birth control.

i agree that we need a proper father figure. a strong and "good" male archetype. but at the same time i hugely disagree with christianity in that regard. certainly not every christian value is wrong. but many are and i think we probably have better ways of figuring that out being that 2000 years have passed and those teachings have basically not changed. they're not completely obsolete but very much outdated.
