Are all women this self-centered and need validation this badly?

>> No.5141656

>>5141637
Depends on their upbringing. If they were sheltered, then yes.

You see this in men, as well.

Yes. Women are in need of constant validation, not just from individuals, but from society as a whole. Women find and ingrate themselves into social circles to fulfill this purpose. The more men that they can emotionally dominate and lean on for self-validation, the more they find happiness.

I am torn between trying to find good in women, and hating them. My experience with them is primarily that they are self-centered. Essentially children who have never grown up.

I have never met one with existential dread. Or philosophically fueled angst.

Or one who even dreams of severing themselves from society.

Women really are intellectually shallow creatures most of the time. The most inner conflict they feel stems from rejection, a feeling men quickly grow past in adolescence. If women were held to any of the standards men were they'd be abandoned to the streets. But they aren't, because women have one redemptive quality, and that is between their legs.

Women are (on the whole) incapable of deriving inner security from themselves on account of smaller physical size (being physically weaker naturally makes you feel less secure/confident).

I'll put more simply: most women are not interesting.

In any group you will always find men who are interesting, but you may not find interesting women.

Of course there are exceptions, but even I would say that it's obvious men are funnier than women. It's an evolutionary skill to get laid.

Don't ever mistake sense of humor and the ability to be funny. They're very, very different.

Artificial divisions concocted to justify your total lack of comprehension as to the nature of reality.

People like you all could replace the word 'woman' with any descriptor of marginalized society & still feel perfectly validated in your fears.

And still the inexplicable temerity to insist it is women who cannot be unriddled.

You folks have a lot of growing up to do.
