They were totally different discussion, but suddenly they connected together.
Are men emotionally needy than women?
The initial discovery I found is that high-powered bachelorettes are outnumbered then bachelors.
For example, in our newest seven assistant professors, there are three guys and four ladies; they are all in their mid 30s-early 40s, while the guys are all married and ladies are all single.
Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of the State, as the female who has the highest political position in U.S. at present time, is single; George Bush, President, as the male who has the highest political poison in U.S. at present time, is married. (Moreover, you rarely see U.S. presidents were bachelors.)
Baby’s theory is, maybe it’s because man are more emotionally needy while women are more independent. Men need someone at home, kids and wife, to be at his support so he can concentrate on fighting against the outside world; at the other hand, a man cannot stand his partner cannot by his side if she’s consistently on the road and work. At contrary, women are more focused on their career that they don’t have time to spare for her family, moreover, it is a distraction to her since she feels guilty about not able to be with her love.
Today, T and I talked about how we cannot resist craving to cheer us up, and she said. “guys are not like this, they only eat when they are hungry.” And I realized, “ah-ha! That’s the missing link!” Girls are more dependent on materials, so we like shopping and enjoy good food. I remember long time ago reading a survey that finding out women would choose chocolate over sex to make them happy while men choose sex as a first place to release their stress.
Well, at the end, it’s only a little observation; I’d like to believe that guys are also sensitive rather then just being a sensational animal.
