Gender Roles Are Backwards...
...in the aspects in that love is portrayed. Now don't get me wrong, I know a lot of girls who are looking for love or something to fill the void they have in their live. These females are looking for someone who fits what they want or what they feel they want to satisfy their desires.
But guys are different. Guys aren't looking for a girl that feels what they desire. On the contrary males are looking to fill the desires of a female, to put her on a pedestal and fill her every desire. Males are the romantic ones.
But the irony of the whole situation is that relationships can't and don't start like this, that is why there is flirting. All relationships start as relations (like international relations) where each side fights and struggles for what they conceive is good for them, and attraction builds on this concept. These are basic laws of attraction with a strong sociological and psychological backing. And this is where the irony kicks in, males are attracted to a self aware, yet submissive female and females are attracted to a strong dominate male. Of course these generalizations have fluctuations, stronger females aren't necessarily less attractive, but their relationships tend to lean towards even more dominate males.
This is why females like "jerks" for those of you who can't figure that one out.
Yet ironically early relationships females are generally more submissive and males are more dominate... yet the long term desire is for males to be submissive to fulfill the needs of a dominate female.
And we will find this is true, ~80% of people polled in various polls will say that their mother controlled more in their lives/household than their father. (I believe it happened in NYC, but I have also done some minor statistically inaccurate polls with similar results)
We can also see this applying in our own experiences with early relationships, or those of others. Some guys lack the patience to develop a relationship and push things along which either leads to that weird stalkerish vibe for the female or she also becomes delusional and then things crash and burn. I would bet that 90% of relationships that end early are because of guys that come off as needy due to the wired need to submit in instances of love.
Clearly from this we can ascertain that perhaps our over-generalizations of gender roles in relationships are in fact erroneous in nature.
Ideas Opinions?
