Do women and man have different psycho/sexual/emotional needs or are we just creatures of our conditioning?

Answer 1

Different needs. Men want to spread their seed as quickly and widely as possible. Women want to find a mate who will provide for them for a lifetime. We aren't that much different from many other vertebrates, at that level. All relationships are compromises.

Answer 2

The question strikes me as remarkably naive, but I think it might have had more validity as an open field of discourse had I not been married for 50 years. I would argue that discovering the differences and learning to manage them is an important dimension of a successful man-woman relationship, maybe of any relationship.

One difference in men and women of some significance is this: in the male world the word "problem" triggers a "solution" response; among women it more often produces a "discuss and understand" reaction. So our girl friend will ask directions whle we will not dull the edge of the challenge with so banal a solution.

At least that's what I think

Answer 3

Yes we are different in all three areas as mentioned above. Sexual for men is more dealing with physical features of a woman. For a woman, it if he makes feel like a woman then it is on. The emotional side run really deep for a woman in order for her inner needs to respond. The psycho side can be on either side of the pendulum.

Answer 4

It's a little of both. By nature, women are more nurturing and form/need emotional bonding. Think of animals in the wild. Mothers have children and form close bonds with them. In that same sense, the male's job is to impregnate the female and to provide a home (in nature it would be their area where they stay and mark). Women in nature aren't really made to enjoy sex but as humans we have come to enjoy that experience. Men in nature tend to hump and dump but humans have evolved to actually staying with a mate (some men at least).

I think it's a good combination of both nature and nurture

Answer 5

I think in general we do, women seem to think & feel more deeply on an emotional level. Read the book 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus by John Grey.... it explains a lot about our differences.

Answer 6

social conditioning plays a major part in this, though there are some psychological differences between male and females..

there was a study done a few years ago, where they dissected a gay mans brain and a females and found that they where very similar compared to a straight males brain..

this in it self should answer the question.

Answer 7

Little of both. But there is a fundamental difference in the wiring of men's brains vs. women's brains. They really do think differently from women.

Answer 8

Yes, Woman are very different than men on all and yes we are creatures of conditioniong due to evolution and God

Answer 9

I think we have slightly different needs, there are always exceptions but basically men and women are different but complimentary. May I suggest to the militant women's libbers that we both need one another

Answer 10

I'd say it varies from person to person cause me myself being a man I'm quite into talking about feelings which most men are not because of it being unmanly lol but yeah it varies
