This post expresses my opinion on women's thought and behavior. It is a controversial subject that has been continoously discussed by men and not only.
I believe that in essense women think similarly to men. There is no specific difference that is biologicaly connected to the difference of sex. However women think differently than men. Why does that happen? In my opinion the basic factor that has formulated the woman's way of thought is the society and conditions in which they have lived throughout the centuries. Being naturally inferior in body mass and strength to men they had to use other methods to satisfy their self-interest. For that reason they have developed the ability to persuade and use men's weaknesses to do what they wish. They use a more sideways approach to suggesting what they want or even demand it. They are diplomatic and cunning in order to do what they want. For that reason women think in a more wide way calculating the concequences and express their thought less than men.
Moreover their traditional responsibilities in the house have helped develop a practical way of thought not to analytical but effective. The house needs a firm control and has many things to be taken care of so thinking every detail is not suitable but a limited depth thought of many things concurrently is the optimum. This attribute is derived also by the above stated need for control over the male since it gives practicallity and easy application in everyday life.
There is also an increased tendency in women to be very careful with the expenditure of money to the various needs that can be related to the fact that for most part of the society's existence they had not been the ones working and so they had to rely on the income that the male brought home.
Yet while the traditional woman model and behavior (one that I believe has passed genetically to women up to modern times) where a woman uses subtlety and clever ways to achieve her goals is still observable in women there is also a new behavioral and thinking tendency deriving from feminism , equality and the last century's developments in society. Modern women in their try to become equal to men adopt features that they don't like in men. We hear women talking like they got out of a ghetto or something . They are (some of them, not a few though) very hostile, they tend to become easily irritated and are too willing to adopt every behavior of a man that they consider behavior of an animal because in doing so they feel that they become equall and that they acquire control. This however creates deep problems in society and both sexes. The confusion of women's character that adopts biologically elements of the traditional woman and by society's influences elements of traditional man's behavior creates a wall between the two sexes. For example, most women like to be "hunted" my men as far as sexual approach is considered. Yet they show a character that is unfriendly and they also show this behavior during the approach process. Moreover there is a tendency from women's side to describe as harassment approaches from men they don't like.These factors create a problem to men in the approach, since they are afraid of much more than a rejection. And after that women will state things like men are not existent anymore or men are chickens etc. Moreover they want a gentle behavior towards them but how is it possible when they are not behaving so? Or they want the man to take all initiatives in a sexual relation when everything they do declares that they want to be the ones that decide everything. This situation show that there is a role confusion that creates a crisis today. Women are in the process of a behavioral change that may take hundreds of years and during that process they exhibit two opposing psychological patterns resulting in an almost schizophrenic behavior.
This article is in no way intended to be an accusation declaration against women. It just states the current situation as I perceive it. In my opinion women should search once more for their behavioral and character attributes that give them an advantage in society and that they possesed for thousands of years. Their gentleness and subtlety is not to be sacrificed for the satisfaction of their control obsession. These are features that can go together with a modern woman that is enjoying equality without losing what makes her a woman.
