If women don't need men, why do they worry about being in relationships and marriage so much?

Question

till this day I never understood this logic. women here in the west always claim they strong and independent and dont need a man but then suddenly act like they're gonna self destruct once they realize they haven't found THE ONE to settle down and start a family with (or to support her and the kids she already had with the dooshbags that broke her and turned her into a single mother)

is like how can you be so hypcritical and claim you dont need a certain person just to put your life on that person's hands in the future?

us men in the other hand we tend to mean this when we say it. I personally have male friends and relatives who are pushing 40 and even 50 who still haven't started a family and are worried about lots of things except that.

I do not know about woman... but as a man I will be honest with you. I know for a fact; I do not NEED a woman. Like I can cook, clean, and pay for all my shit myself, I do not need a woman.

But fuck man, I want one. Like I think that is the only thing I am missing. I was married for 24 years, been single for 5 years. I love being single as well, but I liked being married as well... until I didn't. But she was not the right one. Probably never was. But when it was good it was really good, and when it wasn't it wasn't. So, I definitely do not NEED that.

I think all these women that go online and date men, are lying if they will not admit to that very fact... it's not about need it's about want. Sure, say all that you do not need a man and woman all you want if it makes you feel empowered or better to think that in some way... but if you want a man or woman... then it's not about need it's about want.

The heart wants what it wants, and needs are secondary. If you have ever truly been in love with someone... I mean truly, then you know you wanted that person to be there for you more than anything... regardless of if you needed it or not... you wanted to have that one person there to provide that emotional support and lean on when you needed to lean on someone.

It just makes it easier when that person is there, and we all want that on some level. If it not what you want that then you would not talk marriage or even, try to date.

To be honest I wish every man on this planet would suddenly become asexual for one year. Just one year.

In the beginning of the year most women would be happy but towards the end they would absolutely go insane. Reason being:

Women would lose attention from men which is something they instinctually crave whether they admit it or not. This includes virtual attention like IG models. Suddenly this quick fix would vaporize overnight.
Women would lose patience and tolerance from men. Women don’t realize how much men hold their tongue when putting up with how women act compared to other men. No the attraction element is gone women would get a ton less leeway.
Many women would (rightfully) lose their ability to make money off men. The prostitution and porn industry would go bankrupt. Gold diggers would quickly get kicked out of men’s lives. No more IG modeling and OF model bs.

Now on the bright side all sexual assaults, harassment, rapes, etc would all but cease. But overall women would be in huge trouble if this ever happened.

Only the ones who provide real tangible value to men would respected. Now of course there are plenty of women like that exist. But I don’t think how many women realize just special they are men JUST because of their sexuality.

Because there’s a difference between needs and wants. Just because we don’t “NEED” a man to survive or live doesn’t mean we don’t WANT a partner to spend our life with. You guys keep trying to make this argument as if you don’t know the difference between basic human needs of survival.

"I don't need a man to survive" doesn't translate to "the world doesn't need men to survive". - because news flash, both genders are kinda required for the survival of human kind.

coachTanthony · Answer

Because they view marriage like buying a new hand bag. Don't need it but it's something they still want.

Lliam · Answer

To say you  need  a man implies that you can't survive without one. Women can survive on their own these days. They don't have to grab onto any man just because they are desperate.  And to say that you  need  someone also implies that you are incomplete without one.  A woman can want a man without needing one to survive. She wants one because she is heterosexual and would like to find a partner to spend her life with - someone she admires, loves and respects and who admires, loves and respects her; a best friend, trusted companion and sex partner; someone to hold hands, go places and do things with, confide, kiss, cuddle, share romance, and build a life together.  I wanted a woman who was in love with  me . I didn't want someone who needed something from me. Sure, she loves masculinity. I can lift and carry heavy objects, fix things, build things, reach things that are high up, open jars. But it's not like she is helpless. Quite the contrary.  And she didn't need me for financial support, either. Although two incomes are better than one. I wonder why so many men these days think the only woman they can hold onto is one who is financially dependent on them. Rather than a partner, they want someone they can dominate and control.

Some woman really mean it, and end up in a lesbian relationship, and an adopt a child. They make their own income and are self-sufficient and are doing well for themselves.

But, for a straight woman to say that, who wants to have a family one day, it’s only going to come back to bite her in the future.

Unless a woman is lesbian or wants to be single for the rest of her life, she shouldn’t say those kinds of statements because they have some misandrist undertones.

A lot of the same women who talk about not needing a man also talk about men being useless or men being trash.

Just like misogyny repels women, misandry repels men — at least men with self-respect.

So straight women who actually want a husband in the future shouldn’t say things like that.

Just like a straight man that wants a wife shouldn’t downplay the value of women and they should show their appreciation for women and what they contribute.

A woman who blatantly advertising their lack of appreciation and respect for men is a fast track to repelling future husbands.

But, many women parrot the ‘I don’t need a man’ phrase without fully understanding the implications and effect of saying that.

It was a trend and many people hopped on that bandwagon in the name of female empowerment without entirely knowing where it might lead them.

So for those women who said that and are now backtracking, it just means they are waking up from autopilot and realizing that they didn’t actually mean what they said. It wasn’t a statement they intended to die by. And now they’re backtracking and eating their words because they aren’t lesbian and don’t want to die alone.

Words have consequences too. They’re just reaping what they sow.

We should appreciate the women who don’t do that — the woman who do appreciate the men in their lives.

Unit1 · Answer

First thing in girls life is that usually they were raised/indoctrinated, that the ultimate goal in their life is marriage (they get their doll houses to reinforce this idea I heard from a few pinks).

The notion to "free thinking" and thinking for yourself is a discovery some never make. This is not to say, that avoiding marriage = thinking for yourself.

Then there is your point in which women have a tunnel vision to exclusively go after the top 20% of men. Inexperience makes them more susceptible to it.

RingOfFire · Answer

A great deal of behavior in women under 35 can be explained by their natural biological clock. The clock compels them to have children before that age since after that it becomes much less likely or impossible. And as with all living things, as far as nature is concerned, having children is the most important function they perform since without it there would be no human species. Some women resent this edict from nature, others rebel against it, others live in denial of it, others choose to defy it, others are confused and conflicted about it and still others lack the natural instinct as some relatively small percentage of every species has defects that cause it not to be able to fulfill nature's intent. But none of these behaviors or beliefs changes the fact that their biological clock is the main force that drives a woman's behavior in that stage of life. And that causes confusion for some, especially in the woke nature denying society that many cultures suffer from today.

Needing and wanting is different.

My ex fiancé often told me “I need you. I can’t live without you.”

I told him him that I wanted him, with every fiber of mine.

In the end, he stopped wanting me when he stopped needing me.

Seems like “wanting” is more important than “needing.”

I never stopped wanting him until he did it first. Me wanting him was more important than him needing me.

women who say "i don't need men" are infantile morons who will probably do some growing up to realize they are wrong. my question for you is: why do you get butthurt when you can't score with that type of woman? do you want this woman? no you don't. so what's your complaining about?

jeffend888 · Answer

Because all of their friends are saying the same thing, yet subtly doing things differently (aka having a relationship so they can get married and create a nuclear family.

In the end, every woman either gets married and creates a nuclear family - or - falls into a clinical depression. Those are the only two directions in life.

Pay attention to what people are DOING - not what people are SAYING.

Need: require something because it's an essential or important rather than just desirable. Want: have a desire to possess or do something or wish for something.

A woman isn't going to die if she's not in a relationship with a man so it's not a need for her.  Oxygen, food, water, clothes and shelter are needs. Without it nobody will survive long on earth.
