ChesneyChrist: Money isn't what women look up to these days(and i'm not wholly convinced it ever was). It's superior self-confidence that women admire, his presence being more impactful than her own.
Not in my lifetime.... I have the superior self confidence.... I maintained the household..... and still am doing so...
No child support.... Kids have No father, Providing is non-existent, in his responsibilities.... except genes.... which would have been better, from elsewhere....
What I what to see in a man is the "I'm here and everything will be alright"... The warm feeling of being connected without the need to justify and prove...

This is doable pK if you show him love and fidelity and the feminine side of you, and show him a world that is worth living in, he will respond with the qualities you seek, or is he's any kind of man he will

lindsyjones: Snooks, I don't.
I advocate for equality on many things but our genetic attributes do make us differ in many ways. I respect for what they can do, in terms of strength and capabilities. I don't feel inferior regardless because it is given that it is the way it is.
When it comes to the mind, I do believe we can be equal more than unequal in terms of development.
I respect what they can do which I can't and likewise, they should respect us for what they can't do which we can. Carrying babies in our belly for 9 months is a big make up for the things they can do which we can't,
My elder son is very handy....if he does not want to do something, I get the plumber, electrician, gardener or builder….They don't live-in, they r hired and paid....so No Live-In man is required….at all....

lindsyjones: Point being is not a matter of looking up to them as superior. Your son unfortunately choose not to do the things men usually do. Usually is a general terms because our upbringing orient us on the tendencies of men to do these chores and women would generally be in the cleaning and sorting out dirty and clean clothes.
This is not qualifying as superiority and or inferiority regard.
U require a qualified electrician and plumber to do maintenance.
lindsyjones: Of course, I wouldn't let my significant other and or my son to do things they are not qualified to do.
I responded on the first point you brought up, "why must women see a man as her superior".
General expectations are to me not a measure of why women see man as their superior. I also pointed out the differences of roles based on our gender.
Some people are superior to others in different ways, it's not gender , tey ae just better. I can name a dozen athletes that are superior to me in their fields, the same goes for all walks of life.

serene56: Considering this is a singles site, I would suggest that most women on here do everything for themselves which can hardly be considered 'exceptional'

Am I sure of myself, yes a million percent....
