Do you think women are more afraid to be alone than men?
|
| Yes and that motivates them to make more social connections. |
| No. Men are the ones who need sex more and are quickest to remarry after divorce or death of a spouse. |

It is an interesting question and I don't know the answer. But women end up more in abusive relationship compared to men. And in many cases the red flags were starting at them during the dating phase. Is it because some women are afraid to be lovely?
I think for men it's different. Men are more likely to accept that they may never end up with someone because a woman has to select them which is not guaranteed. For women it is almost a given that they don't even have to try hard to get a guy. I think this add huge pressure and you don't want to be that woman who ends up alone. However in this modern era where hookup is normalized women no longer have thia pressure to be in a relationship. They have their own money, own job, own housing,amd if they want a child and are healthy enough they can buy one. |
Absolutely agree. |
| Younger women, yes. Older women, no. |
This is the biggest myth. Women want more sex than men. They have the better sex hormones. However they fear social stigma if they openly express their natural desire to f**k. |
| Definitely not. |
Men sadly feel that the only way to lock a woman down is by marrying them. And they are not wrong to think this way because it goes back to their 20s. Every relationship a man has been in there is an expectation that he must show serious commitment within a reasonable period of time. As a result a lot of men are not ready to marry or remarry but they feel the pressure to do so. And further any man who who wants to propose to his gf for example has always this doubt in his mind it could 1% chance that she will say No. |

There's a period in women's lives where they're being pretty consistently inundated with "this is your last chance" messaging from everywhere - family, friends, church, media, etc. This is about 21-33, depending on what part of the country you live in. During that time a lot of women make terrible choices to avoid being alone.
After having been married and divorced, I notice that women are extremely comfortable being alone and men are much more frantic to lock down another long-term relationship. Younger women are more afraid to "not be chosen" and all the societal baggage that implies, but older men are more afraid to face day-to-day life alone. |
That's because they relied on women for the most basic things their entire lives. When my mom is sick she deals with it alone. When my dad is sick OMG he is like a baby and my mom has to take cage of him lol. I wonder if this catch 22. Women want their husbands/bfs to be independent but they also take pride in taking care of them. |
What social stigma? All that changed with IG and tik tok and other social media where bootie and boobies are flashed all day. |
This is true. I'm a virgin (an older one) but guys want to lock it down ASAP. I like my freedom and independence and I think I just prefer being single sometimes but I know that will come with loneliness. Sigh. I just need 2 little dogs and friends. |
That's true. Women are def no longer shy to express their desire if they want to hook up with a random dude. |
I agree with this |
