Why strong women scare men

Because strong women respect honesty, men may fear they will be caught in white lies. Today men may be searching for women without really understanding how female social structures work. Women, especially strong women, have a lot of friends who fill their emotional needs so they will not feel as much of a need for a man.

In the end, the man may be unable to step up and provide true, deep love. Men can be frightened by how strongly a woman will nurture and love her man. They can be scared of how deep they have to give in return and may not be ready for that intense of a relationship. Women who exhibit signs of strength emotionally will do anything she can to make her man feel loved.

She will give to him unconditionally. Because of the way society has segmented women and men, nowadays, men can be afraid of successful and intelligent women. Smart, ambitious women break the mold of the male role of breadwinner. Beautiful women who are also strong-minded need a man who can support her intelligence. If you wonder the question, "Why are men afraid of strong women? Strong women are powerful and tough.
