I would like to hear your views regarding the idea that women need to be protected

I am mostly interested in women's opinions but if you guys got sth to say, say it.. it's a good willed based concept, but I think results in strange conditions. What are your views, needs/ takes ?

I appreciate the gesture as it shows he values me but I certainly don't like to be viewed as something fragile that needs protection.

@Nanori yes I understand. For me it's like, I will always, always appreciate a helping hand. But as long as it isn't extending towards my choices.. and I find this so hard sometimes, to stop receiving, to say thank you I will carry on from here, while it's so comforting to rely on another. But it brings implications.
