I assure you, my mother needs her soap opera.

She goes into fits when bad weather or sports takes the time slot.

This is a weird topic that feels like it has a very specific genesis.

Soap operas run stories that appeal heavily to a lot of women and have a story structure that is designed to keep you in constant suspense of what happens next. They're also filled with very attractive people, which my mom (who followed several soap operas for a looooong time) said is important to her.

Soap Operas make a lot of their money off of product placement too. So its not like they rely primarily on ratings.

I have never watched one. I don't like drama but then I'm a woman on a videogame board. They want to talk clothes and soaps operas and I want to talk videogames and science fiction. It doesn't work.

Women need soap operas so much that soaps are dying a slow death. Not sure how that works.

Product placement has no value on a show with no viewers.

Why do women need soap operas?

Based on ratings for various soap operas over the last 15 years or so, the evidence would tend to suggest that very few women "need" soap operas, and indeed, fewer and fewer women every year even WANT soap operas. There's a reason why there's only a few last straggler shows clinging to dear life while dozens of hours of content no longer exists.

Though for funsies, ask yourself this - why do men need sports?
