Has a woman ever been this protective over a man or done similar things? If you know a woman who has tell us about it.

“It was a really cold winter in Illinois, 30 below zero, and my boyfriend and I were traveling to his sister’s home, 50 miles away, at ten o’clock at night by train, with our 10 month old son in tow. When we reached our destination, there were no cabs in sight, and we were out on an outside platform and the shelter was locked. He took off his goose down coat and wrapped it around the baby and me, zipped us up and set off the find us some transportation to get to her house, by the way, no, we did not have a cell phone at the time. After about an hour, he rode up the station in a military car, (his brother in law was a Sergent in the army and lived on base), wrapped us in again in blankets, convinced the security guys to let us sit in the office while we waited his relatives to arrive. All the while he could barely hold his cup of coffee from his shivering from only having a thin sweater on. That to me was truly heroic and romantic.”
or dropped him off from the car when it was hailing ”
Before you say its a man’s job and society tells us to do this
there are plenty of songs in which woman procalim to do the same, give, protect and nurture a man
Ex 1: ingrid Miachelson- they way i am
“If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I’d find a match.
Cuz I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.
If you are chilly, here take my sweater.
Your head is aching, I’ll make it better.
Cuz I love the way you call me baby.
And you take me the way I am.
I’d buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair.
Sew on patches to all you tear.
Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise.”
Ex 2- Evanesccense My immortal
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
you hear about this great love women have for me and the prtectivness, giving and nurturing women do for men in songs and movies but ive never seen it real life.
just curous.
Men have lower tolerances for cold temperatures. That’s scientifically proven.
Sorry I still dont find that romantic or heroic….just stupid.
here are a few wife saves the husband stories…
Why is that heroic? It sounds extremely irresponsible to be travelling around with a baby in that weather with no transportation or mobile phone. But if it were me I’d go with my partner, better to keep moving than to stay still and cold.
Men and women both support and protect their partners, but in different ways. Because men are physically stronger, then they often protect women from physical threats, whereas women can look after men emotionally. Both genders can be protective, but there’s no point in being protective in the same areas; if both people were trying to give the other their coat, it just wouldn’t work. Men are naturally suited to that kind of physical protection, and women would be more likely to listen to a man’s problems and talk them through with him.
When two people are in a relationship it is both their responsibility to care for each other. Enough with the gender roles already.
I think it was very odd that he left his wife and baby alone in the station. It would have been more sensible if all of them had stuck together. I’m damned if I’d stay alone on a railway station at night while my husband went off. Besides, she’d have kept warm more easily if she was walking. Not a sensible thing to do in my opinion. and why didn’t she have a warm coat on anyway? What was she thinking of going out in that weather without one?
I think both these people sound absolutely idiotic, and no, I wouldn’t behave like either of them. I can’t think what he was thinking of leaving them alone at the station like that, he’d have done much better to take them with him.
I think most couples who are fond of each other do things for each other, but I can’t say I am thrilled by the idea of a screaming, weeping man.
