You're right on several levels..
The quality of the pool of young men today -- is declining every bit as fast as the one for women...
The feminist movement and the emasculation of the American male is partly responsible... Then our "entertainment" industry and MSM pushing for the "cool" metrosexual male - who has found his feminine side -- is a freak to be avoided....
There are still MEN out there... They may not be in the numbers they use to be -- but there are certainly enough to go around for the women who would appreciate them... They're not always the "cutest" or the richest -- but they're men you can count on..
Of course I'm biased -- but find some way to get yourself introduced to some single young Marines.... It's not hard to get into the loop through official Marine Corps activities, families and links... If you've got a Veteran's hospital within a reasonable drive -- spend a Sunday morning there with the men going through rehab... You'll never know who you'll meet....
It used to amaze me in my younger days -- just how hard some lovely and respectable young ladies would work to become volunteers with USO or Toys for Tots or to work on the preparations for the Marine Corps Birthday Ball or to work as volunteer aids at the Veteran Hospitals to meet and help returning wounded Marines from Vietnam...
If I were single and 50 years younger - I'd give you a call!
Semper Fi
Hey there, you've got some good points, too... And I would set myself up with some Marines, but I'm an officer so I can't fraternize so that leaves it to other commissioned officers who are, in general, much older and well my Dad isn't too keen with that (and yes I still listen to what he says, which is a big part of where I am today)... but I agree-- I think thats the best pool to pick from, and they're why I signed up to be a Navy doc.
By the way, Thank you for your service
