.....has become a political hot-potato.
Sigmund Freud claimed to have a wonderful understanding of psychology and yet he confessed to being totally flummoxed on 'what women actually want'..... Part of Freud's analysis was a declaration that women seem to keep changing their mind.
Psychology/Sociology/History/ideology/religion/spending/ etc.....all attempt to answer the question. The behaviours of women born with great wealth (and not much responsibility) often gives a few pointers - to what they really want.

What men want has mostly been easy to understand and to document. The average man, that is.....
- enough food in his belly, & beer at the weekend.
- an acceptable amount of recreation in his underpants...with or without offspring.
- an harmonious family life & strong longterm bonds.
- a roof over his head, a vehicle to drive
- good relationships with all & sundry
- his football team having won their most recent game etc etc....
for a reasonable subset of men , you can add

- winning, at the cost of peers losing. Football or otherwise.
And yet we all know people who eschew all of the above. Some men and certainly some women ?
So, help us with your opinions, to answer the question in the OP
