Hmmmm. I am intrigued that in a society where genders roles have evolved so much and women have become so assertive in a number of ways that they would have automatically become more comfortable with asking for what they want from their partners. Is it one of the few areas that many females have not been empowered in the woman's movement?

I am so comfortable with women....partners, bosses, friends, etc. saying exactly what they want to communicate.
Frankly it is a relief! My favorite Boss EVER said to (my first name)...if I had a deek to wag....I would wag it RIGHT NOW....so WAG YOURS!!! I will love/RESPECT!!! that Boss for the rest of my career! |

"fumbling through" seems to be a trademark... i've always been told i'm the best - or tried my best, not sure which now... |

Why do some women refrain from expressing exactly what they want from their mate?
They do. Just in ways they were trained to and in ways that come more natural to them. Why do they sometimes give clues as to what they really desire, as opposed to explicitly stating what they want?
Because communication is more complex than that. Might as well ask "why is no response to my email considered a response? Why don't they just send me an email listing every single emotional reaction and feeling and thought and decision they went through in deciding they either didn't want to date me, couldn't love me, or just didn't want to respond to my email, all without considering or caring about how I might react, emotionally or towards them?" Is it a challenge to our mates to show more interest in us ;to maybe observe us more?
Could be part of it. There's always multiple layers to communication. Except with direct communication used as transmission of facts. Emotional needs aren't very well communicated with unemotional expression. It's why people keep coming up with their own words attempting to. e.g. "awesome sauce," and, "amazeballs." Would it change your mind Marie if you knew that the guy genuinely wanted to meet your need but just didn't know how?
How would she "know?" He would have to communicate it. Do you think she'd believe him if he said "I genuinely want to meet your need but don't know how." Exactly as it's typed. No inflection whatsoever, completely straight faced without any emotional body language whatsoever. Robotic. If you don't want robotic communication then you do want indirect communication, reliance on body language, indirect cues and clues. Then it's just a matter of scale. Women rely on it more than men, traditionally speaking. Simply because it is smarter for women to handle problems more socially rather than physically, which requires emotional communication. Is it one of the few areas that many females have not been empowered in the woman's movement?
Women haven't really been empowered. What's happened is more centralized enforced sameness labeled "equality." Women are subsidized if they learn to act and speak like men and follow the same path towards "success" (highest potential) that generally represented masculinity. Be strong, be independent, get an education, get a job, produce, rely on no one, self reliant physically and emotionally, deal with problems head on alone, if you can't then something is wrong with you. Communicate efficiently, directly, unemotionally, sterile, say what you want mean what you say, hide your emotions, those are weakness. Women haven't been empowered as women, only herded into behaving more like men, being considered victims until they do. I would have no problem saying what I wanted...oh a little softer, little bit faster, ok a little harder
See? Stereotypically men are considered "dogs," capable of removing sex from emotion, of using and objectifying women, focusing on selfish desire, avoiding emotional attachment, of seeing only sex as important. That encompasses the quoted statement. |

Don't get me started on the complexities of male-female communication. Lots of reasons, good and bad, valid and invalid, for why people do or don't say what they mean.
Can't say that I've seen that much difference in the QUANTITY of poor communication. I guess the most common thing I see people go wrong with, is trying to say what they mean, using phrases they heard other people say, instead of working out how to say what they mean using their own words. |

So I am not sure if the women will feel comfortable answering this question, but I am going to throw it out there. Why do some women refrain from expressing exactly what they want from their mate? Why do they sometimes give clues as to what they really desire, as opposed to explicitly stating what they want? Is it a challenge to our mates to show more interest in us ;to maybe observe us more? Is it because we think we understand our mates' needs without being told and maybe we expect guys to do the same? What is the reason? . . i am both sometimes im straight to the point, sometimes just give clues ;) we're not smart enough for clues... just say what you want . it depends to the man though, if i want him to observe and be attentive i gave clues but when i know he has all ears in me im straight to the point.. Im the kind of a woman who dont want to repeat what I am saying when I want something. |

I'm not sure they don't say what the want.
It's not like women leave cryptic crossword clues. It takes two to communicate properly so if someone says something and you don't understand you could say it's also the fault of the listener for not asking exactly what they mean. If two ships are on a collision course and you were the officer on one of them you can bet your bottom dollar you would ask the other WTF he is doing. But ships still collide, in a court of law both are to blame, not always equally, but both bear some fault. Relationship communication is similar, hopefully at the end of the day both will sail off into the sunset side by side. |
