Typically depends on the person. Generally speaking the bigger a person's ego the more insecure they are.

Men generally have bigger egos than women, so it will be men.

Men know other men won't mind smashing your girl's v-jay if the opportunity presents itself.

I like this answer. I do have a question tho. So if a guy has a big ego and he thinks he’s all that, how does that mean he’s more insecure. Wouldn’t the bigger the ego mean the less insecure? Lol I’m just trying to understand because that sort of confused me

Bigger ego makes someone more sensitive, more of a competitor, therfore by default do to their competitive nature they naturally do a lot of self comparising with others as athletes like to compare with each other at who is better at their sport.

Insecurity is what drives them to prepare and be the best at their sport lest the other competitors past him or her by and win all the glory.

People who have little egos don't think very highly of themselves nor are competitive, therfore they don't think they are worthy nor belong to begin with so they aren't afraid to lose or be disregard as they expect to be secure in their uncertainty if that makes sense.

To try to make better who is more Insecure in your mind, a person hiding a million dollars in their closet or a homeless person who doesn't have a penny?

The one will the million dollars since he has a lot to lose while the homeless man has nothing to lose thus he isn't insecure nor afraid because he has nothing to begin with.

I think that it really depends I'm the man or woman. I've met some girls who are absolutely downright insecure but at the same time I've met men who are insecure as well.

I would say both men and women. We live in times where self-respect and human dignity have no value. Something like this is common among those who have relations before the couple met. With that being said, the relationships were non-starter from the get-go.

Women cause as soon as their boyfriend/husband leaves for like 5 minutes women become inspector ass gadget with his phone. That’s nothing compared to the other crap. If a dude looks at another girl that is walking in front of him it’s a problem... should guys not have freaking eyes like what sense does that make? Who’s texting you? Who’s calling you? Why you like this girl’s picture? Where you going? Where you been?

Based on this question being asked by a woman, women are lol. Honestly there's not one side over the other. Not sure the point of breaking it down as to which side is truly more. All I know is most men don't wear make-up 😆

Wearing make up does not make a woman insecure.

Women lol.

A man is 2 mins late home, "WHERE WERE YOU? WITH ANOTHER WOMAN?"

A man looks at another woman for half a second "ARE YOU INTERESTED IN HER? ARE YOU LEAVING ME?"

A man asks for his privacy to be respected "WHAT ARE YOU HIDING FROM ME? ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME?"

Woman doesn't get a proposal within 6 months of dating "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME? WHY AREN'T WE ENGAGED?"

The man is insecure when another man is talking to their girlfriend or getting a little too friendly, asides that they don't really care what they do. Women be tripping for everything 😂 especially social media, boooooooyyy let me tell you 🤦‍♂️

I would say men are, most men are usually jealous from insecurity

If your choice of partners seem insecure, it could be you are choosing guys of such nature and/or you create a negative environment that undermines them.

That doesn’t answer my question. I didn’t say my choice of partners are insecure. Everything I ask doesn’t have to be directly about me.

You really can’t put it in either or in this case. It’s super dependent on each person not the sex

Women don't internalize things thay bother them. Think of all the tiny things thay bothered you in your life, from the terrible break up all the way to your phone battery dying.

Men tend to hold ALL of those tough emotions in.

We carry way more baggage than any woman would going into a relationship.
