One of the main aspect about women I observe that not alot of people talk about is how women are almost childlike; by this I mean, they think like children (viewing the world through black-and-white, believing their feelings dictate reality) and act like one (rebellious, unable to compromise).
This is what I would call a Puella Aeterna. It comes from the Jungian psychology and it translate roughly to "eternal girl". It is the female equivalent to the puer aeternus and they both are popularly refer to as the Peter Pan Syndrome. Basically, as the name suggests, it means someone who refuses (or can't) grow up and thus has the mentality of a child.
From what I observe from women is that they are basically childish. Think about how children typically act. Entitled, demanding, wants everything to be taken care of and everyone to take care of their needs, egocentric.
Let's take their dating standards for example. They generally want a tall (atleast 5'11+), handsome, man with six-figure salary and who basically is her puppy-dog - Basically someone who looks "masculine" but acts submissive to her. They hold onto this rigid checklist of qualities that are rarely found in one person. She does not consider that her standards has effectively shrinked her dating pool and wonders why they can't find the man they're attracted to.
Another example of this is when women comes across a man (or anybody for that matter) struggling to find a date, she tells him that 'the right one" would come around when he focuses on himself. Instead ignoring reality that perhaps the man has an unattractive quality that makes him invisible to majority of the women (We will discuss this more in detail later)
Children also wishfully thinks; they expect positive outcomes simply because they want them. Here is an examples
For feelings, everything that makes them comfortable is good even if its at their own expense (e. g. promiscuity) or of other people (e. g. divorce) while everything that makes her feel uncomfortable is bad even if its beneficial (e. g. dismissing criticism as attacks). Anything that offends them is bad because it offended them and not because there was anything wrong with said perceived offense (for example, if you chastise her high standards, she will more than likely accuse you of being a "misogynistic incel" or retreat into whataboutism)
When it comes to looks, everything that she finds attractive is "good" while ignoring the bad traits, while everything that she doesn't find attractive has to have some sort of bad trait (this is known as the Halo effect).
Children thinks like this also. Whenever something doesn't go their way, they maybe would say that "It's not fair!" or such. Another example is "If so-and-so doesn't invite me, we're not friends."
Children often resists responsibility because they view it as the loss of their own personal freedom or it conflicts with what they want to do.
This applies to accountability. Every poor decision she makes is someone else's fault (e. g. Slept with someone, regrets it and then blames them for sleeping with her despite it was a mutual agreement), or if caught doing something bad, she will pull out some half-bake excuse for it (e. g. "I cheated because you never give me attention.")
An example of this will be abortion. Mind you, abortions as the result of rape are rare . Majority of the time it is because the woman doesn't want the baby. Women apparently cannot abstinence at all, or even use contraptions. Women love abortion because abortion bails them out of responsibility.
Children does this because they view rules are unfair or controlling their freedoms.
For example, when it comes to romance, she will idealize her partner and when said partner cannot meet her unrealistic expectations, she instead flees.
This is the mentality I believe most women have; They put off marriage and children (and really responsibilities) until their 30s to enjoy unrestraint hedonism in their 20s. By the time, they get to their 30s, they realize they don't have that same power and reality hits them hard. Angered, she is forced to settle down.
TLDR: Women act like children

1. Wishful Thinking
Wishful thinking plays a huge role in the woman's thought process. They go through life with this "omnipotence complex" where she thinks her feelings dictate reality. I would say the way they view the world is almost incompatible with reality.Wishful thinking is the formation of beliefs based on what might be pleasing to imagine, rather than on evidence, rationality, or reality. It is a product of resolving conflicts between belief and desire. - From Wikipedia.
Let's take their dating standards for example. They generally want a tall (atleast 5'11+), handsome, man with six-figure salary and who basically is her puppy-dog - Basically someone who looks "masculine" but acts submissive to her. They hold onto this rigid checklist of qualities that are rarely found in one person.

Children also wishfully thinks; they expect positive outcomes simply because they want them. Here is an examples
For instance, children might say that they can accomplish impossible feats to achieve desirable goals. This propensity is often seen as being caused by a genuine cognitive confusion in which children would act as if their “desires [were] efficacious in themselves”
2. Black-and-white thinking
Women thinks in all-or-nothing terms, viewing thing as completely good or completely bad with no middle ground. This type of view can translates into both feelings as well as views of other people.For feelings, everything that makes them comfortable is good even if its at their own expense (e. g. promiscuity) or of other people (e. g. divorce) while everything that makes her feel uncomfortable is bad even if its beneficial (e. g. dismissing criticism as attacks). Anything that offends them is bad because it offended them and not because there was anything wrong with said perceived offense (for example, if you chastise her high standards, she will more than likely accuse you of being a "misogynistic incel" or retreat into whataboutism)

Children thinks like this also. Whenever something doesn't go their way, they maybe would say that "It's not fair!" or such. Another example is "If so-and-so doesn't invite me, we're not friends."
3. Aversion to responsibility
The puella aeterna are one of the most irresponsible people. She wants all of her needs taken care of by either the man or by society in general. They believe that the man should provide for them while she contributes nothing or doesn't even reward him. Remember, she expects the man to do all of the work while she sits back and relax.Children often resists responsibility because they view it as the loss of their own personal freedom or it conflicts with what they want to do.
This applies to accountability. Every poor decision she makes is someone else's fault (e. g. Slept with someone, regrets it and then blames them for sleeping with her despite it was a mutual agreement), or if caught doing something bad, she will pull out some half-bake excuse for it (e. g. "I cheated because you never give me attention.")
An example of this will be abortion. Mind you, abortions as the result of rape are rare . Majority of the time it is because the woman doesn't want the baby. Women apparently cannot abstinence at all, or even use contraptions. Women love abortion because abortion bails them out of responsibility.
4. Hatred of authority
Women hates being told what to do. They want to do what every they want without being questioned (probably why they support feminism as they promise them this). They hate restraints and wants it either loosen or removed at all (e. g. views of promiscuity).Children does this because they view rules are unfair or controlling their freedoms.
5. Commitment issues
When children are focus on a particular task, there is usually an initial excitement. When that excitement fades, they usually abandons it. Similar to how women usually avoid commitment; She fears being "tied down" because it involves the loss of her own "freedom" and she fears that she will be lock out of other possibilities.For example, when it comes to romance, she will idealize her partner and when said partner cannot meet her unrealistic expectations, she instead flees.
6. Provisional life
Most of this ties into this mentality Jung calls, "the provisional life." Its where someone lives in a temporary, "placeholder" reality on the persistent belief that there is a perfect time to start your "true" life, which leads to the tendency to avoid long-term commitments or responsibilities.This is the mentality I believe most women have; They put off marriage and children (and really responsibilities) until their 30s to enjoy unrestraint hedonism in their 20s. By the time, they get to their 30s, they realize they don't have that same power and reality hits them hard. Angered, she is forced to settle down.
Writer's Note
This is my first "effortpost" (if you can call it that), and I accidentally prematurely posted this and had to edit this so apologies if this sounds clumsily written.TLDR: Women act like children
