Is it normal to find girls with "princess complex" disgusting?

16 Comments

So, I am a guy. And well, I just tired of how society teaches females from their very first years that they should be treated like princesses. I feel like I am making less of my partner if I am supposed to be the provider and protector, while she is just supposed to be "pretty" and that's it.

While I do admit that most guys are intimidated by strong and self sufficient women, I just believe that society should slowly get over this phase already.

You know what I find attractive in women? Actually being able to have a conversation! To share interests, to go ahead in life and through difficult together, to feel constantly and mutually challenged.

And well, that's it. I am just tired of guys looking for dumb pretty girls and for girls to look for strong dominant males.

Is this normal?

    "Most guys are intimidated by strong and self sufficient women"

    I agree with you almost entirely, except for this little statement. I really, really doubt that this is true. According to my observations, most men find strong and self sufficient women very attractive.

      Ask any guy if they would like their girlfriend to earn more money than them and you will see.

        Well, I just asked myself. I would not have a problem with that.

    "Princesses" are the ones that will fail in life. You get what you work for, that's it.

      Hahaha... That would mean my sister is a failure. But, I'm pretty sure she isn't cause she's the one with the college degree and I'm the college dropout.

        You gotta do at least 'some' work to get a college degree.

    Normal to hate it. However, you should also be concerned about the girls that grow up to believe that males are inferior to females. I am a female who is strongly against misandry that has being disguised as feminism. More people should be concerned about male bashing and how it effects men!

    I've honestly never met one girl who is at this extreme, nor have I seen any evidence that society teaches girls to be that way. I'm not denying it does happen sometimes, but my experiences lead me to believe that it's not at all common. The vast majority of people I've met, men and women, desire equitable relationships.

    Maybe we just live in a different society, and this question was never meant for me. Or maybe I've just been very lucky never to have encountered this.

    Although I agree, I would find it very off-putting. I think most people would agree, which is another reason why I doubt many people are actually taught to be that way.

      Where are you from? If you are from Europe I assume that you don't see any of this that much. But I can assure you that in all American, Asian and Middle Eastern countries it is like this. Girls are just waiting for their knight in the shining armor.

      You haven't seen any evidence? What about Hollywood. Even today we see that the only obligation of women is to be pretty. Now, go to any toy store and try to find something educative and empowering to a little girl to buy. There isn't. You will only find dolls and toy kitchens.

    Is it impossible to want a combination? I have always been the practical, nerdy, hard working type of partner. Always ending up feeling sad and undervalued. I see some girls who are totally vacuous being treated so well and it makes me wish that my partners had made any sort of effort close to that.

    I guess I am a cinderella wishing she could be a princess...

    Now I have ceased to focus on relationships because I want my next love to be romantic and I want to feel special and loved. No more relationships where I feel envy for what I do not have. It is not like I actually want superstar treatment either. It would have been great to celebrate Valentine's day, birthdays and have holidays. I even managed to get married without a proposal. It was more like agreeing on what to have for dinner.

    So because I can only change my life through my choices and actions, I am choosing to abstain from a relationship for now and focus on being a better person and have a nice life.

    Yes, it's unfortunate they are brainwashed from an early age to believe that's all they are worth in life.

    But, you know what? Just like how not all guys want to dominate the women they date, you'll find just as many women who aren't into the submissive "princess" role. There are many people out there who believe in equitable relationships.
