Not necessarily. Women also crave status, resources and social connections. Poverty is a huge stressor. Low status at work (and resulting sexual harassment and hostile environment) are huge stressors. Loneliness and lack of social connection are huge stressors. Remember that the days when women went to college for their MRS degrees then stayed home and reared children are long gone.
Women work and are out in the world. They earn, on average, 20% less than men due and are discriminated against in many well-paid professions. They deal with constant hostile work situations, child care difficulties, double-shifts (doing all the housework plus working, even if they have a husband at home).
Women today have a lot more to worry about than being pretty and youthful.
