This is 100% accurate in my experience. It is good to know that others have also experienced this. At least the more old-fashioned women are honest about their needs. The feminist type pretends to like sensitive men but is disgusted when they open up. If you're a straight man you should never open up to your SO (easier said than done of course).

This is too simplistic. Life is better when you can open up, and there are women who welcome it for real and not just with words.
The hard part is that it's something you can only really learn about your partner with certainty once it really matters.
So in a way it's actually better to open up early, when the cost of being disappointed isn't too high yet.
