| Intimidation and Strong Women
Posted: 12/16/2005 3:17:02 PM | jazmyn, u nailed it gurl!!!!! I get so sick of guys labeling women who can do 4 themselves & speak their minds as being "Bit@#es"! I personally think it's due 2 insecurity on the males part, and I see it all the time in the workplace, a male co-worker approached me once & decided 2 tell me why we'd probably never get along, I didn't question why because I didn't know the guy,never met him b4, I had no idea that we even worked on the same floor,so why should I care? my other co-worker who is female asked him why,and his response was that "A woman should know her place",after he said that I agreed that we probably wouldn't get along considering that I have no interest in finding out what or where that "place" is... | |

Personally I love a strong willed woman that stands up for herself. Not that I wont stand up for her but a woman that stands her ground and doesnt take any sh!t get my admiration. A strong will doesnt mean they arent still feminine. They just arent going to be walked over. | |

Posted: 12/17/2005 6:25:13 PM | A man who is strong willed, tough, opinionated, doesn’t take crap, is often looked up to especially in the business world.
A woman with this same characteristics is referred to as a “*itch”
Grover Wray, chair of the Department of Sociology and Social Work, explained why high-powered women intimidate men. He said that naturally men like females who are dependent. Men want to be needed. Women who don’t need them intimidate them. | |

Posted: 12/17/2005 6:28:36 PM | I dont mind a strong woman , problem is many women confuse being shallow , loud , bossy and b!tchy with strengh .
To me a strong woman is a woman that can do for herself , but show kindness to others .
who can build herself up without tearing her man down .
A woman who has her mans back without reminding him everyday he should get a better job newer care etc etc .....
A woman that does not want to have it both ways (if you are so independant why do I have to pay for dinner on every date hhmmmmm so much for being equal ) .
its not the strengh in women we reject , but the "I dont need a man" attitude .. | |

Do men still find needy woman attractive? | |

well wants change need is permenate .
And speaking as a man who has had his heart ripped out stepped on , thrown to the dogs and sewn back into his chest after the dogs crapped it out . I'd say a woman who needs me is much safer . | |

In other words, you would prefer a needy woman who depends on you, therefore the chances of her leaving you are less. While an independent woman who can make it on her own, does not need to stay with a man if she is not happy.
I'd much prefer someone WANT to be with be than NEED to be with me. | |

I'd much prefer someone Want to be with *me*, than NEED to be with me.
I feel much better now that I've corrected that mistake. | |

Posted: 12/17/2005 11:19:35 PM | As a man, I do not feel that I fit the "norm" in this case.
The only women I find attractive are strong-willed.
I want someone to compliment me not be a slave to my whims and cater to every wish.
If I cannot have someone who will question my pursuit of life, then how will I attain betterment of decision? "She" might as well be beside me all the way. | |
