why do women?

Question

rather be love then respected and men rather be respected then love is true a man would rather be alone then with somebody who doesnt respect him why is that

Answer 1

This statement is not true - at least not for me. I want to find a women who loves and respects me.

Answer 2

Women want to be loved and respected just the same as men. I have seen both men and women in relationships not respected by their spouse or significant other. Women are more optimistic and hope that one day the man will change. It usually does not happen unless the understand and recognize they are being disrespectful. Usually in these relationship the parties involve see their relationship as normal and this is what a relationship is like. There is so many dysfunctional behaviors in our society that when someone meets someone who it very emotionally healthy they are criticized and thought of as being naive..

We learn about relationships from our parents. If we were raised in a household and one or the other parent is being disrespected by a spouse or bf.....we view this as normal and this is what we come to expect. It is not until we are with others with healthy relationships that we learn what we thought was healthy is really dysfunctional and we have to change our thinking. This does not happen often because people are afraid to change and would rather accept "this is just the way it is."

Choosing a partner or lifetime mate is more than just finding someone we like to be around or we are physically attractive too. It is really an unconscience search to heal ourselves from our own dysfunctions.

Answer 3

I don't necessarily believe this is true. I think women today are much more forthright and assertive and seek more respect than ever, and they are due that respect! I mean, women have to work twice as hard as any man for half the amount of money and it is very difficult for a women to be in business when an old boy's mentality is prevalent.

I disagree is what I am saying! Plus - everyone wants to be loved - deep down inside - I don't care who they are.

Answer 4

Women are often brainwashed into thinking that they should find a man that's smarter, makes more money, has a better job, etc. and, since he's more successful, don't expect him to respect her the way they might expect respect from an "equal."

Guys are often brainwashed, too, into thinking that women are supposed to "respect" them even if they're losers with just a high school education, a 2nd rate job, homely, whatever.

But more and more guys are beginning to see that you EARN respect, it's not handed to you at birth just because you have a penis, and that you get the respect you deserve if you've been a good person with good values.

And more and more women are seeing that being told "I love you" when they don't respect your and treat you disrespectfully isn't enough.

Answer 5

I think love and respect go hand in hand and to truely love someone means that you respect them also. I dont think sex has anything to do with it.. both men and women want both. I dont believe you can really love someone without respecting them also. You can, however respect someone that you do not love.

Answer 6

it's not true, all people need both love and respect regardless of gender. but historically women couldn't be in positions where they could have get any respect, and they were vulnerable and depended on men who loved them for protection. and men couldn't show they need love too because they would have seemed weak.

Answer 7

Any two people want both out of the relationship. You rarely have one without the other, and when love/respect becomes lop-sided, then the relationship is pretty much over.

Answer 8

No, that's not necessarily true, Its just that women's feelings are more deep then men and take much more when it comes to disrespect, and will do anything to save its relationship, and that's why we take more than we have to. (but it seems that way, I know). While men are more hard when it comes to their feelings and that is why if they don't feel respected they'll act on it sooner than women.

Answer 9

I think your question is very uneducated and haves nothing to do with religion what so ever.
I also disagree with you I think love and respect come hand in hand. I love my husband and respect him and he loves and respects me. You can't love someone if you don't respect them.

Answer 10

both genders need to respect each other in any relationship. there is really no difference between two people and two Cultures or Societies as each are separate from the other.
