Came across an interesting post in Kennysia.com (actually most of his posts are interesting). Click here to read it 'cos I'm too lazy to type too much about it. Furthermore it's a week till my end-of-year exams and I still have tons to cover. :P
Anyway Kenny was asking his readers whether the modern woman still needs a man in her life. In this age of feminism and female empowerment, women can pretty much provide for themselves. Women have better education, awareness and are able to support themselves financially. Three cheers for that. :) So what the heck do we need men for anyway?
The comments he got were of course pretty expected. Men need women and women need men. It's all part of the balance of nature/great circle of life/will of the Almightly/sadistic fate we've been dealt with since time immemorial.
Hehe... but I liked some of the comments by the readers. :P

"In my point of view, no matter how independent a woman is, she still needs a man... It's a balance in nature... Women are born fragile and delicate we need the strength and masculinity of a man to nurture and love us. No matter how strong or independent a woman is to the eyes of the public, she may just be a fragile glass in her heart.
Also no matter how advance technology is, nothing can replace the touch of a man, the kiss of a man, the love of a man and of course, without men how are women going to reproduce?
Some feminist may be angry with me for betraying my own sex, but honestly I'm glad men exist in this world and I honestly admit that I very much depend on the love of my man.
Man needs Woman
Woman needs Man...
This is the fact and the balance of life, everyone please stop lying to yourself..."

"Because we have higher level emotional needs. Being the only female in my research group, it is both flattering and frustating. Discounting reproduction (how unromantic)issue, women certainly are becoming increasingly self-sufficient, hence, it is inevitable "we can do whatever you can do". We see it everyday : from female bus driver, engineer, CEO (i.e. woman power in male-dominated industry).
BUT hey! This does not mean the other group of women - who loves to bake cake, plant peace lilies, and who are determined to spend the rest of their lives loving and tending for their family - are no longer out there.
It's just a matter of choice and circumstances. We go into male dominated world for various reasons : love the challenge, love the work, financial independence etc. But deep down we know nothing can beat the joy of raising our kids. Of being there watching their first piano recital and making lunch boxes.
So trust me, as much as we, working women love our job, we are born to be feminine. We need to return home from office and complain about our boss to a patient husband (and you NOT to disagree with us under any circumstance - no matter how unreasonable we are). We love them for changing the bulb though we can do it anytime. We love to leave all plumbing works to them in exchange of making the best dinner. Sure enough we can carry own our shopping bag, but it is lovely to have you carry it for us.
we need to NEED you."

".....There's a hole in a women's heart that only guys can fill in. Ok lar got another hole also lar but that is not i wanna talk here :P. Women need a guy to acompany her, listening to their braging, their happyness and so on. but most guy cant do this for more than 5minutes. for me 30minutes would be nice, after 30minutes it'll get boring coz the same thing will keep repeating untill she feels ok."

So Darling, if you're reading this... thanks for listening intently to all my rantings throughout these years. Even though it's the same thing over and over again, even though you'd rather be playing computer games and even though your ear is getting so red from pressing it against the phone... you steadfastly hung on without a single complaint. Love you lots!!! Just another 16 days and you won't have to listen to me rant on the phone till your ears are red anymore.... I can do it in person. :P:P:P:P:P
