My own opinion:

1. Feminists are largely to blame. They encouraged sexual freedom, while not realizing that most guys are basically walking hormone bags and won't buy the cow if they can get the milk for free. Duh.

2. Most women I know are whiney and want it all. They cry at the drop of a hat (gee, thanks for the glass ceiling) and yet they want to be treated as "equals".

3. Women also are, ehh, weird and self-contradictory. They may want kids--yet if a guy will tenderly touch her while watching kids play or something, they'll be scared away.

4. Men aren't entirely free from blame. Most guys my age are, eh, rather taken with the frat-style lifestyle and that turns off a lot of women. Men need to shape up, too.

5. Men who do want to marry tend to be rather religious and therefore they don't want anyone except a woman who will stay in the house, stay uneducated and bear 7 children. So there's a kind of dichotomy out there for us women--either we can have this very traditionalist guy we wouldn't be able to stand, or this frat guy we wouldn't be able to stand. So the choices suck for women too.

I've got absolutely no illusion of ever finding permanent love. Jim, love's dead. Forever.

How many women offer to support their husband as he steps into the primary caregiver role of the couple's children? How many women offer that?
