Recently I walked through a sketchy part of downtown later at night alone. Did I manage it? Absolutely. But would I have appreciated a man’s help? Without question.
Women are more than capable of handling life’s demands, but just because we can doesn’t mean we want to. So many women today are carrying invisible burdens, feeling deprived of the simple joy that comes from receiving male support. We’ve lost something crucial—our sense of union with men.
More and more, women are being shaped to criticize, undermine, and compete with masculinity. This comes with a significant cost. Just yesterday, a female client was expressing how she felt her relationship is over because he has stopped texting every morning after letting her know he needs to get his numbers back up and focus more at work. Many men are losing touch with their natural drive to provide, protect, and make meaningful contributions to the lives of women.
More and more men are actively searching for a woman to support them financially.
Many women today are expecting their male partners to act like estrogen-driven caregivers, showering them with unwavering emotional bonding and submission. This expectation disregards the essence of masculine design—powered by testosterone, a hormone of action, task completion, and purpose. Men are evolutionarily wired for commitment, for hunting, achieving, protecting, and providing.
By dismissing these masculine traits, women may unwittingly attract noncommittal men they endup finding weak–men who avoid commitment, favor open relationships, and shy away from responsibility. If we continue down this path, women will be left carrying the load—financially, emotionally, and spiritually—for men who have forgotten how to commit and protect, or who have simply lost interest in doing so because of the ungracious and critical woman they are committed to.
Men need to provide—it’s in their wiring. A woman’s vulnerability, her ability to openly express her needs in a loving way that is not critical or demanding, activates a man’s instinct to give. And when that happens, a woman is free to relax, to receive. It’s a simple formula created by mother nature, but we’ve made it difficult and complicated it.
Women hold the key to evoking masculinity in men. By respecting and admiring male purpose, by cheering on their goals, we create a version of masculinity that naturally seeks to serve and protect the feminine. A woman feels loved when a man sees her heart, but a man feels loved when a woman sees his purpose.
Estrogen dominance has us craving emotional connection and multitasking; testosterone dominance has men craving something to protect and a mission to fulfill.
Maleness is wired to penetrate the world with action and purpose. Respecting this natural drive means supporting his goals, trusting his abilities, and admiring his achievements.
When we respect and honor maleness, we foster a world where masculinity flourishes—where men step into their roles as protectors and providers, allowing women to fully embrace the support and care we were inherently designed to receive.
