Do women really need guys other than sex?
Posted: 5/19/2008 9:31:50 AM
Its definitely a fine line. The advice goes "you need to love yourself before you can love someone else" To be honest I absolutely love my own company,Im financially solvent, certainly mens money doesnt interest me one bit, and the only practical thing I cant do is have sex with myself. Sex on its own as an act between two people and in my opinion sex without feelings is no good.
I believe that a man can offer sex, intimacy, emotional support, and all the other stuff that goes into a good relationship. And vice versa ie the woman can offer the same. It shouldnt be about the money, so just cos a woman is financially independant, does not mean she only wants sex. In fact its when a woman is dependent on a man financially that a man needs to worry.

Women need men because they want feel special and feel liked, admired, loved. They want to be cuddled and have affection from a man, they want to be courted. We need men because we want to feel like a woman, vulnerable, safe and have all those intense emotions a female friend cannot give us. Also having a man is socially acceptable so you can have something to relate to your girl friends about. Being the third wheel sucks sometimes. Sex is very important, but it's not just about the sex. I'm sure there are more reasons I didn't list.

Wow there's some man haters in this topic arent there, jeeze, now I know I am probably going to get bashed for this but I dont care someones got to man up. Ok if you women didn't need, or want a man then why are you on this website, isnt the purpose of this website to meet singles? You say you dont want a man you lie lie lie bunch of liars out there. The fact of the matter is this everyone eventually wants a companion, you say why, well maybe to get married and start a family, maybe they're tired of being single and want someone. The fact of the matter is that women need men, and men need women.

Flippant answer: Sure, women need men! They squish bugs, open jars, and change the oil in the car!

Serious answer: Some things are better with a partner. Ginger Rogers was a fantastic dancer. Why did she need Fred Astaire? Gracie Allen was hilarious. Why did she need George Burns? Just because it worked better that way.

I rather like men. They are pretty neato.


Yeah, I enjoy hanging out with male friends. I call it "Basking in the testosterone glow."

Could use one to help with the Honey DO list, as I just can't seem to get rid of it on my own...LOL...but, I don't need him.
Could use one to share the household bills with so that WE can have a great holiday together yearly..but, I don't need him.
Don't need him for sex at all...no more comment on that one.
Would love to have a companion, best friend, lover, partner to share my life with and to compliment each other's lives and only make them better.
IF you have that and good communication, sex is better then with toys..and it really is nice to have someone to lean on sometimes..
DId I forget? OH my..I did..I NEED and WANT a man who gives great massages..LOL..as I work hard and always could use some TLC!..Of course, that is all part of the package, and I give great ones too..

Yeah, its not about "needing" its about wanting. Needing is often a sign of addiction and for all the wrong reasons. Needing is being needy which is clingy, wanting is a lot better, and the getting is even better still! x

I love men, I love the way they smell. I've been "boy crazy" my whole life or at least since I was 6 years old and got the hots for a new boy in first grade. I love having male friends/pals. Love talking baseball and all that sports stuff. Love a beautiful hairy chest and other gorgeous body parts. Haven't had a "committed" love relationship for several years, kind of scared of bad choices I've made, want to trust myself in the future to meet someone really sincere. So yeah, I think men are terrific, hoping to meet one main squeeze. Did I answer the question?

It's not so much need as want. We choose to want men...and anyway, how else would we get the pickle jar open?

Oh oh!!! (raises hand) I can!!

Bullet proof vests
Fire escapes
Windshield wipers AND
Laser printers

That’s FOUR

These were all invented (NOT discovered) by women! It’s true!


OT: Women need men in the same way that fish need a bicycle. Not for practicality, but definitely for entertainment!

Women who don't want to raise a family don't need men for anything other than sex. And sometimes sex is better when they aren't there. Romance is also a cool chemical rush, but it fades quickly.

If you want to be useful to a woman, learn how to be kind, supportive, loving, affectionate and cook! Don't expect her to clean up after you.

Actually in todays society of equal resourse for women, we really do not need men at all. Some of us want men as one lady suggested in here, but as far as the actual mechanical need from a man, we really do not need men.

As far as flat tires on cars?? AA auto club is very fast and other issues can be dealt with on a similiar note. As far as financial?? I have more financial than i need therefore extra is placed in annuities and other investments.

From friends i have, the few of them that have men in their lives, seem to be more of a burden from my stand point.

Even sexual issue we can sometimes do a better job totally alone as it is rare to find men whom can do it right to put it simple. So with these things outlined, it has to be our basic want of a companion somewhat.

No, occasionally I need a man because my vibrator can't mow the lawn.

Oh wait............I can mow the lawn myself.

Sorry - I just couldn't resist!

The only thing I need is one of those alpha males. I can do everything a beta male can do.

Be well..........and Happy 4th of July to our American friends.....

It's not just women of today that have tasted a bit of freedom. My grandmother worked 30 years. Women
have been self sufficient for longer than many of us males have been around. It's not really a new thing. Today
we're closer to erasing pay disparity but women, by and large, can survive without a man and have had that ability
for a while.

Thanks "Kindredspirit07"

Though I did mention in a 'less well put together' thread, something on the lines of - women may not need men in the future because modern society (Western), can probably operate more efficiently without us:

its sad to hear that women don't need men. I dont mean financially or provisionally, but it seems as though you just dont need men period. What man wants to hear this? What man would feel good knowing he's not needed. I think its a sad state of affairs when we hear things like this, the majority of these posts to me just go to show that men ( as much as women say otherwise) seem to be less desired and needed by women now a days.
