What Woman Wants?

What does a woman want?

Whatever her name, age, nationality, hair color is, a woman would never forgive even her best friend, who turned up at a party in the same dress like hers. Don’t try to look for deep philosophical explanation of this phenomenon trying the situation on yourself. However trivial it may sound, men and women really see the world with different eyes, at times pursue the interests that are not substantial for the other sex, are guided by their principles and values.

Individuality

For us, having seen another woman dressed in the same way, means the attempt to be original, individual, unique has come a cropper. Without any doubt, men also aim at being individual, but seeing your colleague in the same tie would not hurt your feelings, probably you won’t notice that. Gays and metrosexuals are excluded. You prove your success and uniqueness exploring the world, conquering new territories, gaining success and power. Our power is our immaculate looks, sometimes a stunning dress that makes stand out of the crowd, gives the sensation of being unique and individual. And how is it possible when somebody else has stolen your looks?

Forever young

Age is another fierce woman’s enemy, and hence, we do not want to be susceptible to its effects. At least all outward signs should be masked, hidden, depleted and destroyed.. We all well know what measures a woman is ready to undertake in the battle with years and their physical embodiments - wrinkles and extra kilos. Demand is known to give birth to supply and, voila’, there appeared every imaginable weapon against age - creams, botox, surgery. Women’s courage to go under knife is sometimes can be compared with soldier’s heroism. Men, I beg you, at least give your woman a spark of assurance in these encounters. Appreciate her efforts, as to a great extent the woman plucks up her courage for the fight with age in the name of her man. She wants to be attractive in your eyes. Never make laugh of her intention to make a face lift. And by the way, statistics show, every fifth man 40+ have at least once mentally considered the idea of cosmetic surgery to prevent ageing.

Love

To love and be loved is one the basic women’s necessities. They are only the most rigid feminists who find enjoyment in ascetic way of life. The woman needs love and affection like a flower needs the sun. To have someone to share your ups and downs, someone to inspire and take care of, someone you can complain to is necessary for most women. By the end of the day, women have already proved that they can be both good in family life and at the same time have challenging and successful careers. But it is so much easier for a woman to go undertake difficult international negotiations if in the morning she purred like a kitten on somebody’s shoulder.

In short, only you can know what your specific woman wants, as it is you, who has seen her in her bad hair and not only day, it is you she consoled and it is you whose shoulder she cried on, it is you who she put on a private lap dance show and a dinner lit in the candlelight for, it is you who wake up with her in the morning and, desirably, go to bed with her. It is not as difficult to understand what we want… For this you should only love us.
