So we can be taken care of by men. Have men work make money and buy us nice gifts. I trained my husband early on and to this day he showers me with gifts and takes me places.
It seems to me that there is an unusually high level of desire & fixation among young girls & women to meet the right man at some point, marry and then have a family.
I say unusual because I don't see that there is a corresponding level of interest among young guys and men to do the same thing, so I wonder why this disparity exists.
Sure, I know how the images/ideas of what girls are supposed to do/want/aim for in life is a long held view, imbued for a very long time in all modern cultures, but why doesn't this also apply to boys and men (or as much)?
Clearly, enough men have wanted to have such a life, as evidenced by 7 billion humans alive today, even if some of those people weren't wanted or don't know who their father (and/or mother) are.
Men desire it less because women give them full access to themselves without demanding the commitment. Period.

because its force feed to us since birth and apart of our culture.. i suppose if they were pushing us to be casual daters never getting married or having a family ..then that would be the common sentiment among most people
No it isn't but then how are the wishes of the majority of females supposed to be matched up with men, the majority of whom generally don't feel the same way?
There are a lot of us single women running around, not all of us will get to marry. Also, there are approximately 8 million more women in the country overall.
Actually - 2 out of the 3 men that I had long term relationships both wanted marriage and a family. One of them is my husband - and we just had a baby. The other one is now married with a child as well. And for the record - my husband was pushing for a baby before I was. He actually had to persuade me that the time was right!
I'd say that it has been the goal for many men that I know to get married and start a family.
If that were true, there'd be less child abuse, neglect and fewer troubled teens. I say less and fewer because the other half of the equation is the fathers.
Just because all of their lives they've been pushed in that direction, it doesn't mean that they have any clues or role models to be effective.
It's really pushed that this is the thing that girls should be.
I liked the post that talked about baby girls, barbies, etc.
I find that to be true.
From a very young age, many little girls are given baby dolls and taught to care for babies and be mothers. I remember allmy toys as a child being baby dolls (to learn to mother), Barbie (to learn to attract a man) and kitchen and cooking stuff like Easy Bake ovens (learn to be home makers). Little girls are taught to be mothers and believe in the fairy tales that one day Prince Charming will come along and they will live happily ever after. I knew as a very young child that as a girl I was suppose to grow up and get married and have babies, way before I knew I was to go college, build a career and really, everything else.
Men desire it less because women give them full access to themselveswithout demanding the commitment. Period.
basically. it's really sad to say, if you don't get them to agree to some kind of commitment, you're sh*t out of luck on what happens from then on, because hey will pretty much find every excuse in the book to make you a non factor when the fun is over. The least these women could do is get some kind of a commitment before ruining their lives, but most of them don't even think about that until after they're saddled with a bunch of drama. Too late.
We as in all women should be taken care of by men.
