I dont know why men or women should be offended by any of your last 2 questions.
both sexes have so much to offer to the other in a marriage, it equals out, and if there are women out there who think women give more, maybe they are wrong because that is not always the case.
by getting married itself, men give women the most needed trust and commitment and companionship, love and warmth that women so desire during their growing up years.
men give women the gift of children, which a woman cannot achieve on her own. women get the status of a 'mother' by their husbands, and as they bring up the family together, women hope the husband's qualities are imbedded in her children.
sorry it may sound flowery because know there are marriages that are bad and not like above but this is my view and my opinion.
i am married and i get soooo much love and support from my husband. i am not dependant on him, but i couldnt imagine my life without him..

Nowadays, men and women prefer to believe that everything should be "equal." I find this untrue.
A man should be stronger than the woman. It is still the woman that gives birth. And, many times mommies are placed on bed rest. Men are made stronger genetically, and good men are raised to have backbone. A man should be able to be her fall back, emotionally, financially. He should be able to support the family, on his own - just in case. I'm not saying that he should be a millionaire, but he should have a strong work ethic and be able to provide. A man who sits on the couch or cannot hold a full time job - no matter the job - is not husband material.
He should be faithful, and honest. He should make her feel like there is no other in the world better than her. I'm not saying roses and presents all the time. It's the way that a man makes a woman feel that's more important. He should always be respectful to the people around him.
A man who has something to offer a woman is just that - a man.

Well, I hope this helps (but note, I'd never date anybody who had to ask that question--smile):
Relationships are about give and take, so both partners need to be flexible and bring some giving to the relationship. But you can't lose yourself in a relationship, so both partners need confidence and self-esteem.
Then what do you give (aside from the obvious income advantages?): affection, support, attitude.
If you find a guy with a good attitude who can make you laugh and cheer you up when you are around him, who shows you genuine affection, has high integrity, and is a confident gentleman, you'll see what I mean.
Now the problem is getting the good guys and the good gals together because a lot of apples on Love's tree ain't ripe yet.

probably not the best person to answer this as i have recently had a break up. what would be nice for a partner/husband to be like is support you, help you, love you, great friendship and make you laugh. and lets not forget kisses, cuddles and a healthy sex life. however it does work both ways and both men and women need to be happy, have trust and be nice to each other to make a good relationship. you should offer each other give and take. lastly though it is nice to sometimes feel protection and safety from your man.

As a partner, emotional support, friendship, caring, unconditional love, if they are a good partner.
As a husband, sexual gratification, help with things like bills and hopefully the best friend you ever have in life.

if you are in a real commited loving relationship then the answer has to be fulfillment and making her feel complete in life and as a person....That is how i feel with my wife..It always felt like something was missing till I met her....No matter what I bought or how much I made or how much fun I was having,but once I got her I now know what I was missing.......

My husband gives me everything that I need out of our relationship, Love, Support, Caring, Honesty, Sexual Satisfaction... Plus he's a handyman and he can fix a lot of the stuff around the house himself, so he saves us money and I enjoy watching him!
