My Mom always said that exact quote! A woman can get along without a man. But most men need a woman in their life.

Thanks! I was hoping to find that quote here.

I needed a man to be here, after that not so much.

I can and do mow my lawn, kill spiders all by myself and I take the rubbish out.

I don't NEED a man but I sure do WANT the one I've got to hang around. He's good company.

Want a man? Hell yeah!
Need a man? Nope, considering I don't want children.

Oh boy, I'm in trouble now.
Happy Friday
R
ARE YOU NUTZ TO WRITE SOMETHING LIKE THIS? Or...were you trying to start trouble...Oh, no, I get it...you were looking for a woman to give you guidance and direction? Perhaps you need a lesson in etiquette so you will know how to act in public...No? Don't feel bad that you just embarassed yourself, there are plenty of women on here who can teach you how to behave.

Women do NOT need men to validate who they are as a person, nor do they need men to show them how to behave in public, or give us guidance or direction. We are not the ones going to bachelor parties and paying someone to take their clothes off then getting fried beyond belief and arrested for drunk driving...hmmmm what "direction" were you going in when you got caught drunk driving? OH...the Police Officer who stopped you he had to put you in his car and SHOW YOU how to get sober in "His House"...,right? AND...what did I hear you did in public just last week??? Farted??? then laughed?? OH...you ran away from the fart so someone else would get blamed...right?? AWWWW you da man!!

What's that?? You talk about your sex life with your BROS at work?? Does your wife know that your every last private detail is now all over the office? WELL, now isn't that good behavior? I mean, think how "special" your wife will feel at the office picnic this summer. Oh, sorry, I forgot you don't call her your wife, she is "Your Old Lady"...SIGH...gosh I just don't know how we can possibly live without you...do you??? I mean it is so much fun asking you all the time if you LOVE us and getting that "SEXY" grunt back while you are in the midst of watching your favorite baseball team get trounced as you HOLLAR at the T.V. OOOOOH what a turn on!

Get my point???? And have a wonderful rest of the weekend..,.that is if your significant other or wife hasn't found you a place to live in the cellar already!

OP, the lesbians don't need a man. Remember that.

I go along with the concept, but not the reasoning behind it. Many women seek a male partner for SOME reason. My take on it is if you don't NEED someone, why would you even WANT them? I'll freely admit I want a partner with skills that COMPLEMENT mine, not ones that are identical. Thus...I NEED her to do those things that I'm not particularly good at--like cooking. But we're a "team", I don't expect her to be subservient to me. I'm offended if she feels she has to work outside the home--and none of the women I have been in relationships with HAVE worked outside the home. That's MY job...to take care of our income. HER job is to manage that income wisely.

A woman doesn't NEED a man, haha. I don't think anyone needs anyone else, to be frank. I need gas stations, I need grocery stores, etc. but I don't need anyone in particular or anyone specific. Frankly if those same places were run by robots it'd be fine with me. And they will be one day! haha.

I would, however, say that about 90% of girls, ok more like 95%, behave as though they need guys. It's because they do nothing but talk about their relationships, ask other people about their relationships, go from one relationship to another, and seem to have little else going on in their lives, or whatever else they do have going on is so obviously secondary to their * drum roll* relationships. It's actually pretty sickening.

HAHA, as if!!! Most guys get by just fine without girls. Just like Charlie from Two and a Half Men said, "I got a maid, I eat dinner out, and I have plenty of girls on the side, why do I need a wife?" A guy doesn't need a girl. Everything a girl does can be replaced by something fairly easily. The vast majority of the time girls are just a huge pain in the butt. The rare exceptions exist, and I consider my gf to be one of those, but it's not like I know ANY guys who need a girl. That is just PURE weakness!

Why? If you don't need him, why would you want him? I freely admit I NEED a woman as a partner in life.
