What good is it for either gender to tell us what they think the other wants when only the individual can confirm what it is they want?
I'm quite happy with the answers given by the blokes in this thread, to be honest. Guys seem to fear that to the outside world our basic needs are somewhat "wrong" when it isn't the needs themselves but how some of the men go about pursuing them. This fear leads to a defence which is contrived that we are very complicated beings in hopes to appease the readers. Yes we are complicated people but our needs are rather simple. And if they are, so what?

There's nothing wrong with wanting someone that knows how to cook, wants to sleep with us, or share similar interests. It's possible to want these things without expecting them to come in a misogynistic package. Women too can have high sex drives, people can take turns cooking and you might just not want someone solely dependent on one person, and similar interests do help the bond between 2 people. Avoiding or complicating simple needs for whatever purpose instead of embracing them is what stops many from finding happiness. I in my experience I found more guys get more girlfriends when they just "go with it" and don't beat around the bush, pretending there are several layers to them. Much like guys don't want complicated women, women don't want complicated guys.


Understandable, but in many ways, still did not answer my question.
