REASONS WHY MEN NEED WOMEN IN THEIR LIVE

Let us try to understand why do men need women, and why is it that while most men around the world take digs at their own wives and other women and even publicly loathe female companionship, they would rather prefer to be stuck with women than be rid of them. That they're never really sure of what they want, is quite another debatable matter!

There is scientific evidence to prove that biologically, men and women are wired differently and perhaps, it is this very difference that attracts us to each other, no matter what relationship we share. Aren't we all looking for someone to complement us and not necessarily behave exactly as we do? Women may not admit it but the "wild" behavior in men is often appreciated at some level by women (turns them on would be a more appropriate expression). There's a phase that many women go through when they find "bad boys" very attractive, never mind their messy hair or clumsy, unkempt attire or over-the-top machismo attitudes. But the same "attraction" turns into nuisance (turns women off would be an understatement!) when the "crush" graduates into a long-term relationship.

The Eternal Battle of the Sexes
It is no secret that men are indeed naturally wired to crave for physical intimacy and this wiring can be traced back to serve the basic purpose of procreation and furthering the species! But there are other needs that men have that they would expect the women in their lives to fulfill. Most of the male expectations can be traced back to the lives of our ancestors and even other species closest to ours like apes and monkeys (no offense, and they were common to both genders anyway). The male was always the breadwinner (as the hunter, provider, protector, etc.) and the woman was always the caregiver (assuming the roles of the mate, communicator, mother, nurse, cook, etc.). This clear distribution of roles and responsibilities, as stifling as they were for the women as evolution progressed, was quite convenient to men despite being physically more demanding and dangerous. In modern times, an inconsistent overlap in these roles and responsibilities have been liberating for women. However, the men feel they have been handed out a raw deal. The women willingly took on the additional roles of supporting the family but now the guys are confused as ever, about getting their needs addressed. Now it certainly isn't their fault that they are not "made for" tending to children or doing the dishes!
