There are many things I value in men, but ability to provide is not one of them. It's just not important to me. I don't know why, maybe that's just how I am?

There is a biological instinct in men to be attracted to women who are vulnerable and need them.
Really? I don't really believe that. There are enough guys who are attracted to strong, independent women. And that's good for me, because I find being treated as a vulnerable little thing quite boring.

This is the desire to serve. You can try and modify the goalpost away from physical or emotional need over to "attractiveness" or "personality" or whatever, but all you're doing is moving the goalpost away from what is biologically inborn in humans over to something that is more artificial and less powerful, less bonding.
I'm not "trying and modifying" anything. That's already how it naturally is for me.
