You're grossly mistaken. Young, single women could be sued for renegading on an oral promise of marriage.

This is not about me.

You certainly don't speak for me, nor voice my own opinions about women.

So yeah, there's at least four men, in this thread. who don't agree with your basketful of stereotypes and resentful tropes. The rest of the world? You probably have a lot of company, even as you deny sharing their views.

Now ponder what it might have been that got that gal's radar beeping. It couldn't be the fact that the feelings expressed in the OP are very hard to hide, and come out in innumerable tiny ways. Oh no!

I am a transgender female, and so, I don't know that I speak for biological men.

What most biological women want is what most biological men want, success in love and success in work. What women want is an attractive mate and that's men want, also. Such is life and such is evolution, in this case, sexual selection. Males present and females choose, and such is the way of most (if not all) mammalian species, unless the copulation is forcible. And, so, if a H. Sapiens male wants a mate, he must present himself to lots of them that are in his "cuteness class", realizing that not every male is a Ken and not every female is a Barbie, and that not every Ken & Barbie will remain as such (see Kelly McGillis as an example) over their lifetimes. In this quest for love, no one wishes to experience opportunity cost, in that they could have married someone "better" if they had only waited a little longer, which we must all balance against our inexorable aging.

Eventually, sooner or later, everyone who marries will be married to another fallible, imperfect and aging human being, something to also keep in mind when presenting to and/or choosing a mate.

"OMG, you're such a cutie..how are you single...?!?" she asked, nervously running her hands along the hem of her favorite skirt, already picturing the two of them naked, cheeks flush, shifting in her seat.

Let's not get carried away here, no piece of tail is worth that, brotha.

I hear that castration is very effective at diminishing troublesome sexual desires.
