Similar. They're insecure about different issues.

Insecure as to what???

 

-Many women cant/wont leave the house without makeup on. I doubt theres any insecurities that men have that are on the same level as that.

 

Can anyone think of any??

Height, penis size, job, obsessive attempts to increase male hierarchical social standings through attempts to dominate or through one-upmanship, male pattern baldness, aging hence need a young chicky. Really, try to be a little more honest.

As a whole? I don't know.

 

I'm easily far more insecure than any woman I've ever met or heard about. So, there's one data point.

Ugh I just read some posts on the OM/OW forum and I'm gonna go with right now I feel like women are more insecure. All the posts are women who are "dating" married men. Why would you put up with that...insecurity, can't get anything better (you feel).

 

No guy doesn't leave the house cause he's 5'6. Plenty of women don't leave the house cause they haven't put on make up. I think women put up with WAY more s.hit from men then vice versa. God its sad.

All valid points. But do any of them stop men from leaving the house?? Some men do make sure they got their ball cap on to hide the bald spot....but the amount of men that do stuff like that is so miniscule compared to women and their makeup....its not even worth mentioning.

Its reality, and its facts. Many people on here try to act like I'm bashing people with my posts. But I am doing nothing but stating what we all know is true. Are men totally free from insecurities....no. Hell no.

 

But women are raised to be insecure. Media, marketing, family and friends force women into thinking they need to conform and become a mega consumer of beauty products....or they are not as good as the women around them.

 

Look at the millions of women that are turned off and irritated, when a guy tries to talk to them, and they just have sweats on, and threw their hair up under a ball cap to run in and get some milk. Women are brainwashed into thinking they look like **** unless they are "all done up".

 

I think its terrible. If you want to wear a little makeup, thats fine....but our society makes women believe its absolutely necessary.

 

There are so many naturally beautiful women out there, and they smother themselves with makeup, all because they "think" what they see in the mirror isnt good enough.

In what respect? If we're talking about looks, I think it's a toss-up. Check out some of the hair loss forums on the internet so you can see all the insecure men whining about how they're gonna be forever alone due to their increasing ugliness.

I honestly think I look better with a shaved head than I ever looked with hair.

 

It's something I'm not really insecure about. Though I was insecure when I was losing it.

I'm 48 and I hardly ever wear make-up - I've never really needed to because I'm gorgeous just the way I am! :D

 

Seriously though.....different people are insecure about different things. It has nothing to do with gender.

 

While women are worrying about their weight, body shape, cellulite, or whatever, men are worrying about their height, penis size, sexual performance or whether some woman is going to reject them when they ask for a date. Even people who appear to be very secure will still be worrying about something - however minor.

 

It's swings and roundabouts.

I seem to constantly meet guys who do seem to become insecure quite fast when I do not agree with them or question things or when things are not moving fast enough. I was wondering if I should explain myself more and display more signs of interest to provide them with assurance or if I just happen to meet the wrong kind of men.
