In todays society women want both their place and mans place and men are struggling to keep their place . now you tell me wher the imbalance is ?
I think I just lost an IQ point reading this.

Being one of CD's resident feminists, my advice will probably provoke some rancor, but for what it's worth, here is what I think:
I think you should worry less about what men in general supposedly want or expect, or the wants and expectations of men you are "supposed to" like, and more on the wants of men you actually like. But above all, as someone who (I assume) isn't yet married or in a marriage-like relationship, you should concentrate on building your life independent of any hypothetical future relationship.
Shakespeare wrote, "To thine own self be true." It's great relationship advice if you think about it. Be true to yourself. Know who you are, and know what you are not. Don't try to force yourself into a mold at the expense of cutting off your limbs and your head. Know your weaknesses, your preferences, your likes and dislikes, what your can or cannot put up with.
In a long-term relationship, be kind and attentive to your partner. It doesn't mean waiting on him hand-and-foot; it means never trivializing things that are important to him, even if you yourself are indifferent to them. If he has a dream, and it's a realistic dream, do as much as you can to help make it happen. But stay away from men who expect you to drop everything and exist solely to enable them, without regard to any of your own needs or wants other than those of basic survival. Stay away from men who trivialize things that are important to you and who don't give two ****s what your dreams and aspirations are.
No one can "have it all" -- NO ONE. We all have to compromise, accommodate each other and adjust our aspirations and plans to fit circumstances that are beyond our control. But good partners help each other have as much as they can. The fact that you can't have it all doesn't mean you should have nothing, or that you should have something that someone else decided you should have, even if it's not what you are in your heart of hearts -- and you should give men the same benefit. Don't live vicariously; most likely, you won't get any credit for it anyway, and though some women claim that they like living this way, I think it requires a degree of self-suppression that's absolutely crushing to most people.
Don't try to be something you are not. And if someone tells you that accomplishing something on your own and following your dreams means you'll die a bitter old maid and no one will ever love you -- rest assured it's a big, fat lie.

This is one of the most ridiculous posts I have ever read.
And completely false on many levels.
If it's not false in your world, I'm glad I don't associate with the people you do (or the people who taught you to think like this).
Men and women are not lump sum organisms who 'all' act one way or another. Attitudes like these help keep us divided and contentious.
