Why Are Men Intimidated By Confident Ladies? by LaurelP(m): 10:15pm On Nov 19, 2014
I've come to realise that men don't really like wooing or befriending ladies who are very confident. Ladies who can speak up at any place and time and aren't afraid of anybody.

Such ladies are often single and don't get as much attention from men as the more reserved ones. I know of this lady who is very beautiful and has assets that every man would love. But this very lady is just too confident; she doesn't care she can walk up to anybody and strike up a conversation, she says her mind the way she feels. As in, she no send anybody! Infact I was in a seminar with her and immediately she came until the end, everybody already knew her.

I realize dat men are usually intimidated by such ladies. Why

Some men don't want strong, confident and independent women because they themselves aren't strong, confident and independent

Op
What planet are you living on?
Men usually like that type of women.

But what happens is many women allow that confidence to manifest into arrogance & unhealthy self pride. Then boO0om...it becomes a relationship kiLLer

This is the ANSWER!

Man was created to lead and dominate. God, of course gave him that ORDER, whether he is poor or rich!

Seeing a "confident", maybe "bossy" woman (coz WISDOM demands you don't wash your dirty linen in public) kind of creates a picture of one who may want to rebel against his government, as it were...lol.

It is in him!

Money enhances it though!

Men are not intimidated by confident women...

No MAN likes to share his authority including the OP and white men too, Ask Hollywood Stars!

No Real Man likes to see another person who is meant to be "under" trying to dominate... even at work place...

Love your wives, yes!

Wives, honour your husbands as the head of the home... Simple!
This do and you'll be called "fool" by your friends but that "foolishness" is wisdom in disguise... And The Happiness You Really Want, You'll get...

Sorry To Derail ooo

I met these ladies...Two sisters... I was like, which one? I went out of my way one day, to buy them something that cost me...

THANK You, them no talk till tomorrow...
Me too, naturally, I just stopped...

Every Man, I mean Every man craves for Sincere Appreciation, Then maybe Submission... Not Maybe oo...

Thank You, won't break your stilettos naa...

PS: Some men are intimidated by "confident" women because they're BROKE!

When a man hits jackpot, his hormones releases what I term, "Pridogenesis"...
The "average" earners that are not intimidated are probably LEARNED or HIGH on WEED!

Take It!

Confident men find confident women sexy. But Confidence is one thing and "over confidence" is another. When a woman become over confident, most men see it as pride and arrogance. #justsaying

Sorry, we don't want "confident" ladies because they're lousy and will always cause friction at home except you leave her to run the home.

Who wants to roll with somebody that appears and sound confident and outspoken, only to shrink and use sex to get around the corner as soon as the heat is on them? undecided

If you know the secrets of confident and independent ladies, you'd stick to the reserved ones.

Unfortunately most of them mistaken their lousy and arrogant nature for self confidence and being independent, and of course you have their minions and copycats following suit without finding out how those so-called 'confident and independent' losers ended up.

We have too many of them here on NL,and too bad again they are so broke. grin
Re: Why Are Men Intimidated By Confident Ladies? by moneyhungry(m): 4:40am On Nov 20, 2014
Whatever. She just should be independent, that's all.
Re: Why Are Men Intimidated By Confident Ladies? by Nobody: 5:21am On Nov 20, 2014
Where i come from, Men love confident Ladies cool Unfortunately, society impression of what a man wants in a woman is slightly different. What man wants a woman who can't speak for herself, love herself or even be Independent too. Do you want a woman who is always gonna keep on asking you questions because she is so insecure of herself, and suddenly you lose interest in her, Nah! undecided you don't want that
Re: Why Are Men Intimidated By Confident Ladies? by Nhamoyedu: 7:10am On Nov 20, 2014
@op, coz men do not believe women are confident. In fact men believe women are over confident. They can pursue confidence carrying on killing the confidence of men, eg, when men really believe women are confident, they are actually over confident that even if they were to cheat, they do it in an overtous manner just to evince their (over) confidence. I think real men are not naive about this, and would not be swayed aside to be attracted by overzealous women who mistake the double meanings of their actions. C'mon, how long do we stand to be feminist, a man is a person, and a woman is not, and so confidence is attributed to people, period!
