How to not be desperate for a gf?

[Epimethean]

The women's lib movement did a number on the average male's ability to feel good about being male. Not saying the movement didn't produce results (albeit even today, not complete enough) in the workplace, but in personal relationships, it confused the message into "be sensitive when I want, and be a beast when I want, and be willing to accept responsibility if anything you do in beast mode upsets me or leaves a mark on the furniture" and guys slowly gravitated to self-help rubbishery that gave them the inside scoop on how to get laid. Fact is, if you look decent, have a brain, and know yourself reasonably well, you can get laid whenever you want by attractive women. Sad thing is, too many focus on the getting laid part more than the relationships it creates.
