There is a song I love by the Marshall Tucker Band called This Ol' Cowboy, everytime I hear this song, I feel like he is talking about me:
If you wrote all the moronic threads down I created And let CD pick one out I don't think there'd be one in the whole bunch Aw they'd give a hoot about
I don't get this whole thread besides a man bitching and moaning about not finding quality women..Get over it!! I'm still looking for a quality man but I'm not starting 5,000 threads about it..
This should be the quote of the year, I remember talking to you before Chris and if I remember, you are only 23 years old? You are very wise for your age, and I could not agree with you more!
I'm only 20 actually. But I understand women and the changes that The feminism caused. It facilitated the approach of men in dating by making sex more accessible but it complicated relationships for women because Sex doesn't save a relationship. If something as pleasurable as sex isn't able to save a relationship then women are really in trouble. (my opinion feminism seems to have become a Double edged sword).

OMG Chris, you hit a nerve. I'm a woman and I totally agree. We're da**ed if we do and da**ed if we don't and if anyone has gotten liberated, it's the men. Men used to have to work pretty hard to get sex, but now they see it as their God given right and then get on here and moan when they get it, b/c the woman isn't quality enough. Well the OP can just wake up and smell the coffee and learn to realize that with any woman who might be relationship material, he might have to hold out for more than 3 dates. Or not, since it's really in how they relate, and it doesn't sound like he's relating to these women so I guess he figures he may as well try and see what he can get from them.
And it's not just sex. Yes, I'm glad we can have careers now and can do pretty much any job a man can do, but what often happens is that a woman has babies and wants to stay home with them but doesn't b/c she's treated like a second class citizen if she does. So she keeps a full time job and does most of the housework and work with the kids and wonders why she's so tired. I'm not saying every woman would want to stay home or that no man helps at home--I'm saying that women's rights were supposed to be about choice.
And Urban had it right--we're hemmed in by these paradoxes that make living very confusing and stressful. Women are expected to put out in the bedroom in a manner similar to what men see on the porn flix. Men are expected to make love in a manner similar to what the women read about in their Harlequin romances or chick flix. All are expected to go out and earn as much money as possible so they can buy the biggest house possible so they can fill it with as much stuff as possible; they're expected to make sure their little darlings get as many opportunities and activities as possible and then they're expected to sit down at the end of the day and listen to one another. Is it any wonder that antidepressants are the biggest sellers?
Me? I'm all for a simpler lifestyle. Why not just drop our expectations for other peoples' behavior and pay attention to our own and what we really want? We'd all be happier--esp Pub. And don't worry Chris--not ragging on you--you just got me started and what you said was great. And now I'll stop.

Last night, I was talking to a girl I had fooled around with last month on FB, we went on like 3 dates, had sex once and then we never connected again, anyways, she needed someone to help her move her stuff to Missouri and I jokingly said, "I will help you as long as we can spend the night together", she laughed and said "Sure!".
So, if this is the way most females are presenting themselves these days, I will just go with it, get some and have fun in the process, ain't too worried about it!
Ummm...and exactly how are you presenting yourself differently?

You are 20 and you understand women? Hahahaha. What qualifications do you have for such a claim?

I don't think internet hyperbole can be chalked up to feminism, and this what many of the rants in this forum consist of, imo.
For 20 somethings...it's really not that complicated for a lot of people. Many 20 somethings are out there having a good time and not taking online-naval-fuzz macrame classes.
