It is the plain women who know about love; the beautiful women are too busy being fascinating. Katherine Hepburn
The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?” Sigmond Freud
Every woman should have four pets in her life. A mink in her closet, a jaguar in her garage, a tiger in her bed, and a jackass who pays for everything.
Paris Hilton
Woman was God's second mistake. Friedrich Nietzhche
How do those who contend that woman is the intellectual inferior of man account for the fact that she can give a man a piece of her mind 365 days in the year and still have a huge reserve supply? George Elliot Gonzales
People may talk about the equality of the sexes! They are not equal. The silent smile of a sensible, loving woman will vanquish ten men. Henry Ward Beecher
Ok, this is for fun; if you could pick ONLY ONE of these quotes to describe your woman (for the ladies, YOURSELF) what would your choice be?

She is doing it for your own good my friend! Here, I will try and help you understand; she is feeling her confidence fade, and if she encourages you to show your love, she will be confident once again and welcome you home greatfully.

Another of Nietzsche's
In revenge and in love woman is more barbaric than man is.

A good place to start
Is Nietzsche on slow reading, sorry can't remember where it is, that aside try
http://www.davemckay.co.uk/philosophy/nietzsche/nietzsche.php?name=nietzsche.1873.ontruthandliesinanonmoralsense
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Schopenhauer_as_Educator
These are good places to start with Nietzsche but as always read with delicate fingers, before and behind the line, closing no door to fast

The true man wants two things: danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything.”
There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.”
Nietzsche
Sounds to me like he had found some problemactic women?

How sad. Though I don't agree with most of his philosophy, I am intrigued by what he did believe and why. I firmly believe the best way to increase your faith is to know what the other side teaches.
I'd like to read his work, instead of those interpreting his work, can you point me to something online?

Bob decided to walk around the world. When he had walked a few miles, he met the Superman. Let´s see what they talked about.
S: Hi, I thought that I might help you a bit. Have you any wish I can fulfill, as I have a lot of powers that I can use.
B: Well, I plan to walk around the world, so could you make a highway that I could follow all the way?
S: That sounds like a bit difficult. It may take a lot of time. Would you like me to fill another wish instead?
B: Well, let me see... I have always wanted to know an answer to a tricky question. If you can answer that, we can skip the highway.
How do women think?
S: How many files do you want on the highway??

Had a good laugh when I read what Sigmund Freud said, as he is supposed to be expert in psychology.. Maybe male psychology then..

I had no idea about this addiction.. I haven´t so much idea about Freud, anyway..perhaps that is an advantage..

I agree with all of them.
But this is my favourite.

My favorite quote, but don't know who said it and this is a poor attempt at quoting it, but you may know what I mean: Women were not made from man's head to be over man nor from his feet to be stomped on, but from man's sides to be his helper or near his heart, something like that..

Along the same vein, only different, and I have no idea who originally said this but it's basically, "When God took Adam's rib to create Eve, he obviously took the best part!"
He definitely took the part that contained common sense and prevented color blindness! (That one's all mine...lol!)

Now, let's hear it from Lipstick!!!
"Whatever you give a woman, she will make it greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give...... her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of trash."
I like Sigmond's. Just a one liner , but mankind wasn't able to find the answer for centuries now.

Gee, Debi, this one really does require thinking! I'm not sure how I'd describe myself but I guess I'd hope to be described by this one:
"How do those who contend that woman is the intellectual inferior of man account for the fact that she can give a man a piece of her mind 365 days in the year and still have a huge reserve supply?" George Elliot Gonzales
I kind of like Freud's as well. It's evidence that we women are all quite unique and not at all predictable.

Yes, I can see you as sensible and loving.
So, which pet do you have? just curious.....
There's a guy down under who claims to be a tiger by name of Aussies.

It made me chuckle, I've been accused of overdoing that by a man before.

She does have a sense of humor doesn't she?
So, does this describe you (if you are woman) or the woman you'd like (if you are male)?

I fit the first one. I have many friends who perfectly fit society's current idea of what it is to be beautiful/sexy/perfect. One of my friends is a swimsuit model who gets flown to beautiful beaches to pose in the sand!
And yet these women, who have beautiful personalities as well as physical features, are treated badly by men again and again. They want to know why every man I have dated has worshipped me and treated me with respect.
Well, the kind of men who are attracted to them are the kind that care for nothing but looks. Since my looks are not "as good," the men who are attracted to me love me for me. I am not just a piece of meat or an accessory.
Just as rich man wonders if a woman is just with him for the money, but a poor man doesn't have to worry, so does a beautiful woman have to worry if a man is just with her for her looks!
My friends will have to look hard for a man who sees past the outer beauty and sees the inner beauty as well.

Very well put RebeccaScarlet. I've talked to very beautiful women and some of them understand what goes on. Some don't, they really believe that their beauty will last their whole life, it doesn't. A good heart and soul do. Good choice!

Being a woman is to see the world with different eyes, said a less subjective perspective, rather inclined to tenderness, purity, but it helps the confidence. Woman for me will always be the most powerful being on this world, especially the woman who is mother, and I do not mean a physical quality, but to the moral, which is deeply rooted in the soul of every woman.
Only the woman has a huge ego when he proposes that only a woman can give evidence of so much self control in various situations in which it is placed, only the woman is half of the gallant human case and nothing else.

Women do see the world through different eyes.
One thing I did not care for in the feminist movement here in America, was they wanted women to be the same as men. Not just equal pay for equal work, which I am all for; but to change the way women think, to lay down their differentness and become like men in how they view the world.
Now, we have children with no 'mothers'- and wives who do not get protected and cherished. Sad.

What do women want? Well let me tell you that my husband asks me that all the time.
Let me tell you guys that this is really a simple one and is different from girl to girl... but over all here is what we want so listen closely:
When your wrong, say your sorry
When I cry, rather you think its a good reason or not, hug me.
Don't just kiss me or tell me you love me when you have to. IE: hanging up the phone or leaving the house...
If i don't call or text you, I am waiting on you to do it first
Bring me flowers one in a blue moon JUST BECAUSE
These are the main things to start with... most everything else will fall into place

Good advice. Women love with emotion and words, men love with deeds. You go to work, you mow the lawn, you fix the leaky pipe because you love us...we get that. Now, buy or pick the flowers, reach out with a hug and kiss when you're NOT going to get something from it and change a diaper or two. And we'll be happy.
