Men's desire for sex is pretty attention-loving as well.
So women love attention for the same reasons men do.

More attention= more consideration being given to what you have to say. Higher likelihood of being popular, getting a better job, etc..

Flase. Men don't desire attention nearly as much as women, nor do they desire the same type of attention as women.

Men's desire for sex is not attention loving. Its hormone driven. I think women have evolved to enjoy male attention as it gives them more mating options.

@TiredMonkey.. women evolved to enjoy male attention?
LOL. Hilarious.

If anything, women evolved to become more selective of which male they choose to give their attention to seeing as how women are the ones who provide males with the opportunity to carry their genetics onwards.

I like lots of attention when im in a relationship with a guy, from strangers i prefer the attention to be off me i prefer to blend in among people, i do like attention but only in certain situations.

I do think women need more attention in a relationship than a guy to be content (in general).

I've been in a situation where a boyfriend of mine used sex with me to get validation and always had to be the centre of attention. I don't think everyone is like this but I also don't think it's gender specific.
