Looking at the other posts, mine seems out of place.Women don't need men to support them now. They can
afford to be fussy with shallow material details or ditch a partner
whom they're no longer satisfied with, and men who don't have what
they want will naturally lament the state of things.
However, it's part of a bigger picture, one of which
self-gratification is the holy grail these days. We're victims of
fashion and the power of peer pressure. We put on a facade, one of
party-going and trendy clothing, just to seem cool.
And people, both men and women, want a trophy partner or three
while they're still young (because that's the message they get from
friends who have lots of stories and gain everyone's attention, and
the saucier sections of the media), not neccessarily someone they
can be intimate with.
As for the ones who are left behind, they can't do much except hold
out for the rare gem who hasn't been swayed by the tide of
hedonism. Or they have to get in touch with one another. Either way
it won't be easy.
