Because they're a really insecure lot.

Because society holds slim, skinny women up as our measuring stick. A size 0-2 is what we are supposed to look like! Come on, now, even celebrities have trainers to hit that mark.
To be real and honest, we need to be less insecure and be proud of who we are, what we have attained in life, and not measure ourselves with others.
Once society stops rejecting normal looking women, we can then be our true selves. Since this won't happen, we are stuck with this perfect body attainment. Sadly, it is even down to the young girls. My ll year old granddaughter, over Christmas, asked me how she could lose weight. And she is not even overweight. How sad, that there are no role models for normal weight women for the younger ones to look up to. And as soon as a celebrity has a baby, they then make a big deal out of how quickly she got her figure back. No body says how many trainers, gyms, fad diets, etc it took for that to happen. And who cares? A healthy looking woman is a sight to behold, not a bag of bones.
Luckily, last year, the runways set up a rule for the models to have them stop being so thin. A couple of models died, and eating disorders are rampant with that group of women. Maybe, in time, we will get back to the way it was years ago, where bodies like Marilyn Monroe were appreciated. In the meantime, we all can do our part and not follow the rules set by others.

Not all women fish for compliments, but the ones that do probably have to ask for them in order to receive them at all.

Most women are very self concius. I know I am and like to hear them from my husband. And of course when other people say it to me I feel pretty too.

Because they know they'll get a positive, reassuring answer from a friend who's gonna say "yes" no matter how unattractive the she is.

It raises our self esteem and makes us feel loved, appreciated, and beautiful. Just a fact of life. Give a girl compliments and she'll be very thankful.
