in my limited understanding, i am tempted to believe that men, in general, would like women to rely(for the lack of a better word) on men so that they could display some sense of responsibilities to women..

In a civilized 21st Century most men find a woman relying on them as clingy and run away.
Liebe2: It is in the western culture and have seen a lot of it.
should culture really be an issue here though? Is it a wise thing to suggest that men in the western culture are "different" than the rest of the world?

It is not an issue, but a fact. And no, I am not saying that the Western culture is different from the rest of the world. Many other cultures are different from your culture. Such are Chinese, Japanese, Eastern European and so on. It is a fact of life.

I am not quite convinced because i believe that the 'fundamentals' that define and shape up relationship between a man and woman is same all over the world. But i absolutely respect your take on cultural aspect.
u mean it is a natural phenomenon that insecurities in women bring the best in men? somen women also tend to believe the same, and i wish i could talk to those ladies
mnowsa: what if the men, instead of feeling important, think they have 'responsibility' to run the affairs of the world, including women of course?
I guess years ago men were brought up to feel responsible to be the head of the family,it was always classed as being the man's role to be in control of the affair's of the world,years ago women were deemed to put up and shut up,i guess that sometimes our young Prince William wishes that he didnt have the responsibility that is going to fall on him when he becomes king,i personally would like any man of mine to be responsible for me...well...just a little after all im menopausal

Well, if you are asking whether men like to feel needed, then I think the answer is yes. We all like to feel needed and appreciated. It's hard to answer this question because I think not all men are the same, and it depends on what insecurities in women you are referring to. Do you even MEAN insecurities, or do you mean vulnerabilities? I agree with previous poster re: liking that feeling of being protected by a man. It doesn't mean I can't take care of myself, but there are some aspects of a man that women don't have, and which I like and appreciate!!!!
No, men do not like to deal with insecurities. They have their own hidden ones. Like being dealing with hunting season...Most are like "Elmer Fudd". "A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go. Goodess gwacious, gonna get me a dewewishous wawbit"

ya..perhaps vulnerabiliies would be a better word. And if it is all about 'opposite attracts', then why men and women will attract each other if the both genders feel, talk, walk, laugh, and look the same way?
