Being a guy and therefore somewhat biased with thinking a little differently, there appears to be three broad types of female out there.

1. The type who is a princess (head in the clouds), requires her every whim to be met from the BFs credit card, and expects most things other than shopping to be done for them.

2. The type who is ruggedly dependant, is offended if a guy even offers to open a door for them and shoulders more than their fair share of everyday life.

3. The middle group who are friends and companions, feet set somewhat on the ground, tender but brave, glad to pull their weight with their husband. In other words part of a team. (or wanting to be)

Women are generally speaking, the more tender sex and although they need cherishing and nurturing (don't we all), if they are pampered and not encouraged to be partners, the relationship is sailing for the reef.

I like the type of girl who is tender but also happy to be up on the roof laying tiles with her husband. Mind you they are few and far between these days!

No offence to the ladies of the forum. It is just that our civilization doesn't seem to be making many of that model anymore. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
