Is Romance more important than Protection (being defended)?

Question

I'm directing this to woman since the general trend seems that women be self sufficient and tough

Answer 1

if you watch mating habits of earth bound human, you will realize both are required. However, first romance, then protection.

as mario said in his song you should let me love you... "sweet love and protection! let me be your selection! show u the way love supposed to b.... "

Answer 2

please rephrase the question.

Answer 3

What does this question have to do with being self sufficient and tough?  Are you speaking in daily life or simply s*x?

Answer 4

I recently researched "the feminization of men" below are some good quotes I gathered in my research.  IMHO the masculine man is still very much appreciated.  If that is you, don't feel pressured to change who you are and what you value just to please a member(s) of the opposite s*x.

"I agree that there is too much push for men to get in touch with their feminine side to the exclusion of their masculinity.  We shouldn't be demeaning the opposite s*x (whatever your s*x is), but raising each other up."  

"Anything that goes against the nature of a particular person is essentially denying that particular person their existence.  Masculinity is a very positive feature. It is a trait that must return its positive connotation."  "

Answer 5

It is to me. I have no use for protection. If I did, I'd hire a bodyguard.

Answer 6

Romance is pretty important. It's essential. But, if someone attacked me, I wouldn't want my guy to just stand there. I mean, if someone's trying to hurt me, you could help me out a little.

Answer 7

I think both are equally important in a romantic relationship.
