What date was this concept first founded? and please made additions to it
I can't find any trace of womb envy in the 1993 reprint of Horney's book. Is this entry misattributed to her?
Reillyd 04:54, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
Just to clear this up, Horney did coin this term. Here is a more accessible citation (already added to the article): [1] AraizaEos ( talk) 10:09, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
I've removed the middle paragraph speculating on evolutionary psychology
This may be a psychological factor in altruistic motivations in men in manifesting evolutionary psychological inborn genetic tendencies towards Altruism. citation needed
If it can be sourced and expalined please readd it. I've also rewritten chunks of the article because it was poorly phrased, passive and at times unclear - I hope this rewrite helps-- Cailil talk 19:47, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
related in various ways, but focusing on different aspects. Both articles deserve great expansion, and I think they would turn out to be=quite different. DGG ( talk) 00:18, 5 October 2007 (UTC) no consensus for merge, so the redirect has been reverted. Discuss here first. DGG ( talk) 01:11, 24 October 2007 (UTC) Several grammatical errors, not really sure what this topic is supposed to be about, vagina envy? Tophermith ( talk) 18:19, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
I would like to see these two terms have their own entries. They are different, though related concepts. AraizaEos ( talk) 10:08, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Doesn't this whole concept seem to be prone to delegitimising transgender individuals? 62.196.17.197 ( talk) 10:25, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
I would like to see sections in this entry. I have found one reference in pop culture (Joss Whedon) to the term and concept. Is that enough to create a section? Also, it would seem odd to have just one section - the one for pop culture - and not other sections. How might we organize this entry into coherent sections? AraizaEos ( talk) 18:40, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Do women really urinate faster than men? Ive found this claim on a few sites, but the logic doesnt make sense. We even have a sentence on urination that suggests it may be the opposite:
Though since it is talking about differences across species rather than gender differences I wouldnt jump to that conclusion either.
It seems odd that something that's supposedly well-known enough to be a common source of male jealousy would be so difficult to confirm. even if Ruitenbeek happens to be right about the biology, i dont think its a common male emotion and doesnt need to be mentioned here. if we do mention it, i would at least want to add the word claimed to the sentence. Thoughts? — Soap — 00:28, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
just noting that i think the word notawoman, which we have as not-a-woman, might actually be unhyphenated in the original text. ive had a surprisingly difficult time confirming this, though, and its possible that Robert S. McElvaine coined the term independently of a different author (possibly Karen Horney), or respelled it. — Soap — 01:09, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
