> "It’s really hard and sad how much failure men often need to see a problem."

I think this pertains to humans in general: most people complain and whine and get angry for their problems, but they don't understand the reasons or they're blind to them (it doesn't help that many times the reasons are unconscious).

If you think this only applies to men, you've got a huge bias.

This sounds like she's not an independent adult, but a frail creature you have to take care of all the time. Do you really think this applies to ALL women?
