[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here lies the problem with these lists- men say they want a drama free, self sufficient woman.  But these the hot/crazy ratio (the hotter a woman is the crazier she can get away with being) is a real thing.  All of these logical wants go out the window for a beautiful woman- she can be crazy, helpless and worthless and her looks make up for that.

And in my experience I’ve found that men can feel very emasculated by a competent woman.  Men need to be needed, just like women do.  And when you have a woman who can basically do any of the traditionally male tasks what’s left for the man?   [/quote]

These are wish lists.

Everyone, male and female, wants a partner that will meet your needs and fulfill your desires without having any real needs of their own.  I do think that you are right that one thing men want/need is to rescue their wives sometimes.  But at the same time, they don't want to have to listen to her whine about them forgetting Mother's Day.  That's what they mean when they say they want a drama-free, self-sufficient woman who still needs them.  It's an impossible, contradictory fantasy, but we all have them about our partners.

Women want a man who is handy, takes charge in difficult situations, and will always come to her rescue.  At the same time, she wants him to treat her career and decisions as equal to his own, and respect her ability to do traditional male tasks (when she wants to).  It's a fantasy.
