desire, feel, protected, curb




Question by Julianne: How do I curb my desire to feel protected by men?

I hate that whenever I'm scared of something I have the urge to hold onto a man if I'm with one at the time, and I hate that I turn to mush if a guy offers to do something for me so I don't get hurt. For one, I've read a lot of internet discussions on this topic, and most men say that in spite of popular opinion that men have this instinct to protect women, they really don't feel any such inclination. For two, I don't want to behave in a manner that suggests I'm weak. I want to be able to hold my own because I'm an adult, and it's not like I have a man with me to save the day all of the time. For three, most guys are anything but protective of women at least in the emotional sense. They'd rather hump and dump a girl to brag to their friends about their conquest than to resist the urge to do such a thing so the girl doesn't get hurt. I'm not saying that's wrong; I'm saying that's reality. I have all of these stupid damsel in distress fantasies where a guy looks out for me, asks if I'm okay after sex and silly things like that, but guys just aren't that selfless. Nobody's that selfless. I'm not sure if I'm correctly explaining how I feel, but if you get what I'm saying, how do I learn to be more of the independent woman and less of the woman who wants guys to protect her from physical and emotional harm?
