"They are as soon as they realise they're not actually needed."
yup...
To be fair to them. If they can get past the misogyny they are able to function pretty well.
Those that can't. Tend to be the needy ones..  |

"Seem to need sex more, yes. Need attention, affection, approbation? No, that's women. "
I'd beg to differ on that one..
I believe what you are talking about is a socially conditioned pre conception that has been designed to belittle women over 200years.
You'd be surprised, but I have known alot of men who need more attention, validation, affection etc...
I would think it to be a 50/50 split at best...

I don't think men are anymore needy they we have always been. Society has changed and we are starting to show our emotions and express how we feel.
For too long in Scotland, and the west coast in particular, showing emotion was seen as a negative thing in a man, by other men.
Show emotion can only be a good thing, but it should never be confused with being needy. |

I dont think showing your emotions is needy.
A push for continous conversation texting, calling, etc.
persistently asking for reaffirmations of love
seeking out compliments
wanting to spend every moment together
difficulty making decisions alone
anger or sadness when partner spends time with other people
acting jealous without evident cause
The above are more acts of being needy to myself and red flags.

I agree showing emotions isn't needy.
The points you highlight can apply to both M&F and would be a huge red flag. |
