Who Are The Good Men?

[FunInTheSunParticipant 8295]

When women write dating ads, they usually make a list the qualities that define their idea of a good man. Typically, they want tall, educated, handsome, FINANCIALLY SECURE men with great personalities and a sense of humor. Yet I seldom see these women writing a list of attractive qualities they have to offer such men (other than their bodies). I’ve read many dating ads for women seeking men, and I used to feel bummed out because I didn’t have ANY of the character traits they were looking for…plus, I was broke. But now I can read these ads and laugh because I know this: even if I had these qualities, the women I’d date would become bored and end up spreading their legs for Chad/Tyrone. So what’s the use?

Women seem to want a good man for security and a bad boy for sex. There’s no way to enjoy your life if you’re serving minds like that. The most eligible bachelors in the world have problems keeping their marriages together—when they finally commit to one special woman—so that doesn’t give me much hope of having a meaningful, romantic relationship with a woman. Casual dating is fine with me until the bitching starts—then I’m done.

"I saw that there comes a point, in the defeat of any man of virtue, when his own consent is needed for evil to win-and that no manner of injury done to him by others can succeed if he chooses to withhold his consent. I saw that I could put an end to your outrages by pronouncing a single word in my mind. I pronounced it. The word was ‘No.’" (Atlas Shrugged)
