I don't know where to start writing on this topic, but I guess I gotta start somewhere right! Lol. Women....smh....did I hear someone say; 'women are complex, uneasy to fathom and unpredictable beings'? I would rather start this on a more supple note because of where I am taking it to. To start with, we need to give a brief overview of what we mean by women being 'complex beings'..

If you think women are complicated beings, then I am here to reaffirm that fact! It is much more easier to crack the NSA security code than to crack a woman. I may be quite green or seem inexperienced to know or clinically treat the multifaceted nature of women, but I want to assure you that no one would be old or experienced enough to know women entirely. I have spoken to a number of people who are much more older and experienced in their dealings with women than myself and all they could come up with was 'the more you try to know about women is the more confused you get' because according to them: 'women have varying moods and needs which switches every other time.' I tried to pick their brains on the things they were either not saying or forgetting to say and found out that there is so much more to understand than what they have told me.

From my study of a number of women, I came to realize how emotionally-wired they are. An average woman have a considerable amount of love, fear, hate, anger, disgust, surprise, trust, sadness, happiness, guilt, pity, kindness, envy, shame, hope, affection, cheerfulness, altruism, etc. all rushing through her bloodstream at surprisingly and almost an equilibrium rate. It is quite a mystery how women have been able to gain mastery of balancing both negative and positive emotions simultaneously and dishing out such depending on the mood their feminine anatomy exhibits per time. It is quite complicating that the same woman who can be very affectionate can also be cold to the bone _ should her mood switch.

With that brief overview of the confounding nature of women, it is quite glaring that trying to understand a woman is more or less a herculean task and as such, we should figure a way out of mitigating the high level of confusion that is imminent when we try to comprehend the true nature of women. Now i bring our minds back to the main theme of this piece which is: what do women really want?

There are a lot of things women want at the same time. Generally speaking, we all have insatiable wants. But the wants of women is on a more higher and incomprehensible scale. An average female wants more than she can have at a time. That is why you see women who can't seem to make up their minds when it comes to shopping, compared to their men counterparts. A woman may write a list of 5 items to buy, but may go out there and end up buying items tripling the prior quantity of items. This example can be tied to the indecisive and erratic nature of women, which causes them to change their mind easily every now and then. We can't get enough of a discussion of the complexity of women. Should we keep writing pieces and books about the complicated nature of women, we would never stop or reach a full understanding of these unique and interesting beings. Although, we can attempt to draw hypothetical synopsis on what women really want:

1. Women want to be treated with care as regards the two-sided nature of their feminine physiology: Every man must understand that women are both weak and strong beings (depending the situations they find themselves). It is the responsibility of men to figure out the weak and strong moments of women. When you sense her weakness, don't take advantage of her but rather be the strength she needs at that moment. When she shows her strong side, don't allow your manly ego to get in the way of you giving her the space to exude her inner strength and confidence.

2. Women want to be treated with dignity and respect: 'Respect,' they say; 'is reciprocal'. As much as men want women to respect them, so do women. As reproductive beings, it is what you give to women that they give you back. If you plant respect in her, she will surely multiply the respect and dignity you gave her. I'm not saying that there aren't times where you give some women the respect and dignity they deserve, but don't get any in return. Regardless of not getting any respect in return, you should play the manly role of not quitting and keeping the respect flowing like the tides of an ocean. If she notices that you're not wavering in the level of respect you accord her, irrespective of her not giving you any in return; she will likely realize her lapse and inadvertently correct it.

3.Women want to be treated as queens: I don't mean you should wear women crowns and bow to them. Lol. Women want to be treated as though men take them special. Men should adore women and give them a hand in general affairs. Don't hush a woman when she is trying to recommend or suggest something. Sometimes, all it takes is just listen! All women want you to do is listen to their endless chats, even though it might not be making sense to you at the moment. Make her understand that her input counts. Make her feel relevant in the decision making process (be it in a familial or relationship front). Make her feel comfortable enough for her to know that she also has a say. If the woman is your mother, sister, aunt, cousin, wife or girlfriend, allow her bear the torch when it comes to bringing ideas and making valuable inputs in varying circumstances. This would go a long way in avoiding the troubles of gender superiority which is predominant in many male and female relationships today.

4. Women want to be loved and showered with affection: There is no human that doesn't want to be loved or shown affection. But with women, the case is quite different due to their very intense need to be loved and bathed with affection. The very emotional makeup of women has left them wired to always be in need of a show of affection and to keep receiving even more. Men should be available to disburse unquantifiable amounts of love and affection to their women at every given time. This means there is no limit to the love and affection men should allocate to the women. As stated above, if you should give a woman great amount of love and affection she would reproduce the love and send it back at you. But if you don't show her the love and affection she craves, i guess you know what you're gonna get in return. Lol.

5. Women wants attention and admiration: It is very natural for humans to crave attention. Women have shown themselves to be crave attention the more. It is in the nature of women to want to be noticed. Women like it when the new hair, watch or clothes, they wear is noticed and complimented. To most men, this may mean nothing, but it means a lot to women. A simple 'i like your new hair,' 'this dress really suites you', etc would suffice when it comes to warming the cockles of a woman's heart. A woman loves it when attention is paid to her. Most men knowingly or unknowingly fail to do this for women. It is when a man pays attention to a woman that he can notice how she looks and compliment her. Sometimes, paying attention to a woman goes beyond the physical or material attributes but paying attention to her moods and body language, so as to be able to ascertain when she is having either a good time or bad time. If men can try to pay more attention to the physical, as well as emotional details about women, we would solve half the problem of our inability to gain an understanding of the nature of women.

Above is just a synopsis of what women really want. Did i hear someone ask that 'is this just what women really want?' Well... let me answer you... 'there is no way just these five points i elucidated above will be able to match up to the teeming wants of women.' But for conciseness, i took out the brief time and points to reveal the basics. The more you deal with women, the more you learn new things. There is no 'knowing enough' when it comes to the feminine gender. But i hope that these few notes would set you on the unending path of understanding women and how you should treat them.
