Why is it that when some women are mistreated in their relationships one woman takes the damsel in distress ?

Question

route (helpless) while the other takes the warrior princess route (i'll save myself)?

Answer 1

Differences in personality and temperament.

Answer 2

A warrior princess wants to get her power back. The damsel isn't ready for it yet.

Answer 3

Because the roles of women and men in this modern society we live in are changing. The change has gotten both men and women mixed up and confused. They basically use whatever gender-card they feel is best to use at the time.

Who's is supposed to pay for the meals on dating, if women have good jobs these days? Who is supposed give the first kiss? is it men? will a man think you are easy if a woman say, " hi, I like you would you like to date?" Who is supposed get the kids in divorce, etc etc.

Who will make a better President and man or woman? what about a black one or a white one? What about a native Indian? NOW THAT WILL BE HISTORY. A Native Indian as President of the United States. I think we should elect one. Then a Asian, then a transsexual, then a g*y, blah blah...

I think you get the point. It is time for change. I mean real change, not the Obamha, c**p in changing how we pay taxes, or invade countries, all that is the same just spun differently.

Answer 4

While this is a seemingly simple question, it has a complicated answer. Each relationship is different. I assume by 'mistreated' you mean abused.

Abused women react differently depending on many factors. Many abusive relationships provoke a pattern of behavior in women (i.e battered women's syndrome) that seems hard for us who haven't been there to understand. Abused women develop a horrible fear of their abusers. Some abused women (who stay in the relationships) may have been abused themselves as a child.

Also, it should be noted, that most abusive men are not monsters all the time. A "honeymoon period" is known as a time when the abuser apolgoizes, treats the women exceptionally well, may even buy her expensive gifts. It is a vicious cycle that is very difficult to understand.

There is a lot of infromation about it online, but hope this helps.

Answer 5

some women have more self esteem than others do. And some women are raised to be passive aggressive and dishonest in expressing their feelings so they play the victim roles...
