Women's Insignificance
Some days ago I read a young guy's complaints about how disappointed he was by his girl friend. He had so much appreciated her independence, but after getting involved, now she wants togetherness, sharing, commitment. I have read similar complaints before, from both sides, also from women disappointed because they did not get enough commitment.
It is an unfortunate pattern for women. Simplified, when a man wants an independent woman, he wants her not to find out, how insignificant she is for him outside the bed.
Most women want a relationship providing closeness, affection, sharing and commitment. There are many men, who in theory agree to want this too. But in their behavior, they are the victims of their own innate animal affliction. Their need for sexual homeostasis blurs their reason and their ability for sound judgement. Their instincts determine, that they make the wrong choices.
Such a man gets infatuated with a body, but as soon as he reaches temporary homeostasis, he gets aware, that he is not attracted to spend any time with the woman. He perceives the woman's body as a commodity with an insignificant personality added as an unwanted extra in the package. If the man could, he would deposit her in a storage room and only retrieve her, whenever his need for homeostasis reawakens. When the woman wants more than what he offers her, the relationship fails, and he attributes the failure to the women wanting more than her due, not to his own wrong choice determined by his instincts.
If this happens a few times to a man, he could gain the maturity and learn how to make a better choice. An immature man concludes instead, that a woman is just not someone worth to spend time with. He reduces a woman's place in his life to only serving his needs in bed. From then on he consciously chooses a woman for being or appearing independent. He assumes that an independent woman would not be interested in spending much time with him, thus she would never find out, that she is too insignificant for him to spend time with her. With this woman, he is not only unable to get bonded and not expecting to get bonded himself, but also that she herself would not wish to bond. Instead he intends to keep her as a convenience as long as possible.
I am not even claiming, that wanting an insignificant independent woman is a conscious deceit. It is more that the instinctive infatuation with a body disables most men's awareness for what they really want or what would really be the best for their own long term happiness. They may even be disappointed themselves by their lack of interest in the woman, when homeostasis restores their reasoning ability. The man's instincts lead him and the woman into a trap of incompatible needs.
Many men are so convinced of being always rationally in self-control, that they are usually in denial of being misguided by their instincts to get involved with women, whom they then do not respect and appreciate. Due to this denial, due to their full acceptance and even pride of being studs, they never learn to think very carefully, if they want a woman as a body or as a personality.
It is pattern with detrimental consequences also for the men themselves. It seems to be a bad trick of evolution. The man makes the mistake to get involved with the wrong woman, and ends up with a subscription for homeostasis, while he does not give the woman closeness and sharing. That subscription means, he may even marry her. So if the woman is a breeder, she reacts to being treated as insignificant by having children. She get bonded with the children, and the man is excluded. Now he is insignificant but he is obliged to work hard to provide for them all. Had he been wise and careful in his choice, he could be a bonded partner and live happily as a childfree couple. In the end, he is also punished for using the body of a woman, who is insignificant as a person.
Men choosing apparently independent women have a very wrong concept of the meaning of independence for a woman. Independence does not mean bonding-disability or low interest in him or in any man. Independence does not mean the consent to be friends with benefits instead of commitment.
Independence is both, it is a survival skill and it is an attitude to acquire survival skills. Being able to be independent can be an accomplishment, that can contribute to a woman's self-esteem. There is no joy in being independent, nor is it emotionally rewarding. It is an acquired skill and it often is compensatory, when someone develops this skill by having no other choice.
Independence is the best way to cope with life while being alone. But the interdependence of a couple is a much better form of coping together with the troubles and inclemencies of life.
An independent woman can find ways to transport things at the edge of her physical strengths instead of moaning about being helpless, an independent man can learn to sew buttons even though he is clumsy, instead of throwing the garment without a button in the garbage. Two interdependent people can pool their skills and make life easier for each other.
An independent woman and an independent man can each go alone to a lecture and ponder about it. But as a couple communicating they may supply a lot of additional food for thought to each other.
Independence is only a bad substitute for the benefits of interdependence.
Interdependence means: A problem shared is a problem halved, but a joy shared is a joy doubled.
I am capable to be independent. But I do not want to be independent, I want to find a mindmate and live in interdependence.
Any man, who wants my body as that of an independent and insignificant person, should just move on and find his victim elsewhere.
