That was the answer I was going for, but I give you credit for the assist.
So much for liberation from gender roles.
It's your world and they're just living in it. That's the way you gotta look at it. They're there if you want them, and if you don't they'll leave you alone and never bother you. Your choice. The box you live in is far less restrictive and intrusive than the one they live in. Most men would perish the thought of ever trading places. Women lament that they can't act like men all the time.
Why do they need to put in work? I am old school if I liked a girl enough I would just go for it. I would be turned off if she too interested it is like I got the cat in the bag.
Guy have to put in a lot more work than woman do.
I can bet you that your not the only one wanting the same woman you have to fight to win her over.
That us why a woman has the next guy in her phone ready to go once she dumps the guy she is with.
What makes you think that "cat already in the bag" phenomenon doesn't apply to women too?
Even if I wasn't married, I still wouldn't be scared. The guys on here that are opting out of relationships might want to convince themselves that they are scaring women because they are becoming so numerous - but they are lying to themselves if they honestly believe that.

I'm not married and I am not scared. I honestly don't care either way. Sure, I'd like a man in my life, but I don't "need" one. And I certainly don't want to marry. For every guy out there who is vocal about it, there is a woman who feels the same. There is no "threat" or looming "interesting times."
Men are more likely than women to prefer marriage over lifelong singlehood and in many ways are as interested in serious family relationships as women, according to a study that provides the government's first comprehensive glimpse into the male psyche... For example, to the statement "It is better to get married than go through life single," 66% of men agreed, compared with 51% of women.
No matter if you are succesful or not, no matter if you have tons of money or not. Not everybody can find a suitable mate.
If you are rich, you want to date your level. And often women (or men) on that level want somebody above their level.
If you go low, you are afraid she or he (if is too good looking) will take advantage of you.
If you are a blue collar worker you have to date within your range but you don't want to live in a trailer. Too redneck.
And that's for starters.
Marriage was always about social convenience first and then they they gave you the love card, which is on most cases a lie. In the dawn of time was about strength, then about power, then about the money.
I guess somehow we evolve but the roots stay the same.
These guys are just fooling themselves really. Desperate attempts at trying to justify an aberrant type of mindset.
I think they think women will miss them when, like I said, the truth is there are plenty of women out there just like them (leaving the men and women who want each other, together). All their talk seems to be about some perceived "punishment" of women as a whole. I don't feel punished at all and I doubt most others do as well. I mean, do any men really feel "punished" by women out there who hate men and shun them? Probably not. Most don't even notice because there are plenty of fish in the sea and the trends seem to indicate that's not changing.
My guess is the only women punished are the mothers of some of these men... if they have mothers who want grandchildren (and unless these men are only children and the only hope at grandchildren... that's kind of dilated too).

Re: "What work do women have to put in?"
