What women want?

Hello random reader,

My usual answer whenever someone asks me this question is pretty simple and straightforward. I look into their eyes and reply : “I’ll be damned if I knew the answer to that one”.

On giving the topic a little more thought I found out why nobody has been able to come up with a concrete answer yet. The reason is simple. It is the same reason I gave my mother in class 9 for doing badly in some test. The Question is Wrong!

The only person who would be able to answer this question is here and that too only at a particular instance of time for a particular person. Nobody knows what somebody wants in the long run and the male-chauvinist in me is hurt by the undue attention showered upon this wrong question. So what is the correct question? It is again simple : What, according to you, does a woman want? (let us call this my question (MQ for short) and What women want, the original question as OQ.)

This (MQ) looks just like an explicit way of stating the above question (OQ) doesn’t it? Well actually it is not. When one delves deeper into the process of trying to understand the question, the one thing that was eluding your grasp comes into the picture making it crystal clear. The OQ lacks individuality (a woman wants this, so no more women from now on) and independence (a woman wants this too).

A woman answering this (OQ) is forced to think about the wants of half the human population and thus the answers are lack-luster an appear unoriginal. A man answering the question on the other hand, thinks about things which will help him sustain his good-relationships with the women in his life, and thus most of the time the answers are fake or “too sweet”.

In the case of my rephrased question (MQ) though, a woman could cater to her own needs because, the “according to you” provides for the independence part. Most of the men, I am sure, will not change their answers however you rephrase the question and you cannot blame us too.

Also all the men want these things too. It is just sad that nobody seems to care about what men want!

So now that the question analysis is over (finally!), it is time for my answer. No! wait…not yet. Before that you should know why I am writing this shouldn’t you? There is this contest at blogadda in association with Pringoo, where they want jobless people like me to write about what women want!

My answer : For those dumb-heads who have still not understood that in my opinion a woman wants individuality and independence, read this sentence again. Another important thing which I think a woman will want is : others giving her some space and not pretending to know what she wants. So finally, I am going to finish it the way I started : I will be damned if knew the answer to that one.

So till I write again…ciao ciao.
