according to the drivel above, men need to be in a relationship to be mentally healthy and happy, whereas women are the opposite, they stay mentally healthy when single.

And also, women who have had many relationhips in the past, continuously stopping and starting and breaking up, end up becoming just bonkers.

Yes, let's all encourage women to stay single. That would work great, except that it would make reproduction rather difficult, at least for those men who prefer to live their lives in another way than every single one from "Sex and the City"

I've never known an attractive female that didn't jump from one relationship to another. Most attractive females seem to have 'back-up boyfriends' which is a male that they can fall back on if their current relationship ends (generally someone that they call a "close friend" or "some guy at work that I hardly know". Many females even go as far as flirting (or further) to keep their back-up boyfriends interested.

I'd also like to add that I've gone as long as a year between relationships and considered those to be some of the happiest days of my life. Both men and women, for the most part, are obsessed with constantly having to be in a relationship. There should always be a period of reflection/maturation between relationships, in my opinion, and those that jump from relationship to relationship are destined to fail at what they seek.

I've been living 19 years without a single relationship. Got to tell you, I'm richer than any of my friends in relationships, I don't suffer any of the nervous breakdowns they go through when a serious relationship ends. I can make my schedule revolve around me, instead of her. Quite frankly, I see little reason as to why I should ever change.

Not really. I am living proof of the contrary. I don't really care if I get in a relationship or not, provided I get laid regularly. Men need sex to be happy and healthy, not a relationship. If we needed a relationship, then there would be no extramarital affairs. The only reason why affairs happen is that we men get tired of banging the same person every day and we need variety.

We are not so different from the rest of the amimals as we have been led to believe. Many animals wander around alone and their sole purpose of existence is to spread their genes as far and wide as possible. Are most of us really that different? Granted, we have developed control, but the instinct is still there, whether you wish to admit it or not.

I wouldn't trust that site really. Much reaserch was done on this subject and everything I've heard so far suggests that women are the ones who seek stable relationships the most while men tend to seek variety, like pagewizard said. It just seems to make more sense that way.

Yes, as if my name wasn't a dead giveaway I am female. A friend of mine sent me this link and after much laughter on my part I had to reply.
It is in my opinion (though it may be naive) that the idea of marriage and relationships in general was formed around three things religion, woman's physical weakness, and most importantly perhaps the ability to name a legitimate male heir to the line
Were I to say which gender is in more need of it at this current time, my vote goes to my own.
Girls talk of boys... period. To a point of being sickening. Wait, wait... I know boys talk about girls too, but as stated before men do it for purposes of sex, whereas women seem to DEPEND on male approval.
Now don't get me wrong but most women have the urge to be taken care of. Whether that be biology or just because society is a ***** it doesn't really matter, because it is there and it is embedded into our natures.
We, and by we I mean we as women, can go on an uprising of waving our bras and shouting "female empowerment" but in the end without those bras we just are mighty uncomfortable and embarrassed.
This has turned into a rant of a sort, but to refresh the point that may have gotten lost in the ramble. Society isn't ready for women to be empowered as quickly as we have, and so we have gone from being percieved as the 'fair sex' to being either of two extremes, staunch feminists or sex objects... and oh goodness now this is turning into a feminist or an anti-feminist post... all right I must stop myself.
Because of the way society has been for thousands of years (or perhaps how God intended it) women are the dependent gender. Unless, of course, they deny sexbut that's another rant entirely.
That's all for now

Elena, I do beg to differ, though I see where you are coming from.
The typical female, in my personal experience, goes into the world to act strong, only to watch a romantic comedy personifying typical male/female relationships. I am not saying this is ALL women, because it is most definatly not, but this holds true for most women I meet, and though it might be a bit presumptuous to say, I'm sure it does for most people as well. Just look at the lyrics to the music women sing compared to those of men.
And no sugarless, I don't mind if anyone borrows anything I say (as long as I get full credit for my obvious brilliance of course j/k), and what, if I may ask, is that novel/book about?

Same again (except for the christian bit). Casual sex doesn't really appeal to me either.

Exactly. Everyone tries to convince me otherwise with clichés like “You’ll change when you’re older” or “when you meet a nice girl” or “you don’t know what you’re missing out on” or “you shouldn’t make that decision until have been in a relationship”. When they spout this drivel, I always ask them if they’re happy in their relationship, then ask them if it’s the happiest they have ever been, and then ask if it’s the happiest they could be.

Then I pick someone at random and ask, how do you know that this person over there couldn’t make you even happier than they are now. Most times people will respond with a “I just know I am meant to be with X”. Which then leads to me saying “IF you just know that this is the one person for you, when you have been with less than 0.5% of the your potential partners, how come I can’t just know that being single is the life for me.” {or words to that effect)

Not everyone needs or wants a relationship or companionship. It irritates me no end that people assume that happiness is only achieved via a partner. On an unrelated note, I am also confused as to why people would think I'm gay if I say I'm single and am happy to stay this way (which many have done). If I was gay, wouldn't I be in a relationship with a man?
