I think the real reason is that these women WANT TO FEEL SPECIAL, and want to feel like the guy is somehow putting in work to get her, that he's good enough to deserve her. I've heard women time and time again put on a superior attitude and say, 'If he wants ME HE's gonna have to work his butt off to get me', I'm not going to appear desperate.
I've heard that alot too. Women like that are pathetic, I struggle to understand why any man would want a woman with that kinda attitude.

I think my ex and I pretty much killed this stereotype nine times over. First of all, being gay already broke the whole man/woman paradigm. Secondly, even though she's way more butch than me, I was the one bringing home the bacon. On top of that, I was the deaf-blind one and she was the hearing-sighted one so everyone expected HER to be providing for ME, but it was actually the other way around.

Definitely true. I also did all the housework on top of working. However, we agreed that if we ever had children, she'd be the child-rearer. I had and have zero interest in getting pregnant.

Lets face it, if most guys could get sex easily from women than poor behavior from women would be unlikely. They know they have a commodity that many men are willing to barter or pay for. Supply - demand.

First of all, women like that are NOT pathetic...are you kiddin' me?

Maybe she's like that because she feels she's a good catch, and she's not gonna fall for the first jabroni with bulging biceps, a bulging crotch, and a line of freshly-sprinkled bullsnarkey (aka 'game') that comes along...

No, women like that, at least in MY experience, are serving notice that THEY bring something to the table, and so should you...it's not about them being difficult, 'princessy' (please ), gold-diggers, or any of the other processed cheese-food epithets hurled their way by guys who couldn't cut the mustard (yeah I said it...and what?)

I see this ALL THE TIME on here, and it's starting to get on my last nerve...for every 10 guys who post here, at least 6.5 to 7 of them are gentlemen, intelligent, successful, in touch with themselves, and are able to handle stuff like (gasp!) women making more than them, or knowing how to BE gentlemen and treat woemn with the respect they deserve...

However, it's the other 2 or 3 that gum up everything...they come on here with their diapers overloaded, b****ing and whining like somebody snatched their Fig Newtons, calling women all kinds of names, saying women of a certain nationality (hmmm...American/Western women anyone?) are this and that, all because they stepped to the wrong women, or stepped to the wrong women the wrong way, and got their feelings hurt when that woman and several of her close friends slapped on dark glasses and channeled Ray Charles, and regaled them with a snappy chorus of 'Hit The Roooooad Jack!'

Ain't a damn thing wrong with being a gentleman...or with having your s**t together to the point where a woman can SEE and SENSE that you're a good guy, instead of getting the poopy-drawers and calling names and saying women have 'princessy attitudes', because you got found wanting in one way or another, and instead of learning from that experience and strengthening those weak points and being a better man next time out, you hide behind a flippin' wall and call names and point fingers---on a bloody CHAT FORUM, no less!

I'm now going to put on my flak-vest with the pre-painted bullseye on it, because doubtless I will have ruffled some feathers, but I don't give a red-hot flying can of biscuits, because sometimes, stuff needs to be said, and folks need to grow a hide and deal...bottom line

Maybe the ancient Greeks were onto something when they started sleeping with each other . Maybe it's time we started denying THEM something for a change, so they'd be coming back to us.

Whatever.

I'd be more than glad to be a gentleman to women who deserve it. Women with an entitled superior attitude don't.

I'm not saying they should fall for anybody

Their attitude is that the man should put in all the effort and all the work while they reciprocate nothing. Women like that aren't intrested in the guy.

The attitude that the man must put in all the effort IS princessy.
