2/3 of Men Prefer to Marry Virgins
January 29, 2023
"I don't even want to go on any dates anymore. They just feel like a chore." I heard this from my twenty-four-year-old male patient this week. I hear it frequently from men everywhere. I hear it in bars, at professional conferences, over coffee at lunch. I hear it because American women have become undatable.
The typical American woman today projects limitless entitlement, ruthless competitiveness, and advanced emotional incontinence that makes it all but impossible for a man to tolerate her, much less enjoy her company. "

They're trying to get their lives together in their 20's I guess. But it really is a minefield and I feel sorry for the intelligent, well-meaning young women I'm around (my daughter's friends) most of whom simply aspire to meet a nice guy and settle down. Unfortunately, and regrettably, young 20-somethings (women mostly) are attempting to meet Mr.Right on social dating apps. These dating apps are a minefield and polluted with bots and fake profiles. We recently discovered this when our daughter was stood up at the last minute three consecutive times.. She'd be driving to meet someone for coffee and the guy would text her and say, "Oh sorry, can't make it, I have to take my sister to school." What!? Henry, I'm not sure what's behind these "dating" sites but I'd speculate that it has to do with gathering personal data..
Henry - please don't blanket-blame American women. Like I said, I know
many of them in their 20s and they're mostly intelligent and interested
in the right things.
"Intercourse should be reserved for marriage or a relationship approaching marriage because it symbolizes this permanent bond."
Here's the rub "or a relationship approaching marriage" my experience and that of many of my female friends is that 50% of men pretend, gaslight, and game innocent virgin women in their teens and 20s that they want marriage --that they are serious. These men will bring their girlfriends home to meet their parents, they will buy them gifts including giving them promise rings and engagement rings (fake diamonds) --all under the guise that they are seriously dating for marriage. There is a huge expectation and pressure on these women to have sex with their "serious boyfriend." Later these men dump them; they were just using the woman's desire to get married to manipulate them into a fake serious relationship.
Many women lose that marriage-mom window when they are duped into these "relationships approaching marriage." I did. My "serious" boyfriend, a nice Midwest guy, with values continually told me he wanted to marry me and have children. I spent holidays with his family, he called me every night etc etc... But he had a start-up business that needed his full attention. So he wanted to wait until he got his business off the ground before we got married. I waited from 24 to 32 years old. His company was finally super successful. But then he dumped me, saying he actually never wanted to get married or have children --he opening admitted he just lied.
I know so many nice girls that went through that same manipulation--and there is no way to know because these young men appear normal. They meet your parents and pretend.
The only solution is to reserve sex 100% for marriage only--and even then men will literally marry you for a year or two --as if they are dating and request time together before having a baby--again its just a trick to use women for sex.
DAS- said (January 30, 2023):
It seems to me there is a mental/spiritual and not necessarily a physical “virginity” that 2/3 of men want in their future wives.
Yes they are linked but I am pretty sure 2/3 of women have been ravaged by one of you gents pre-nuptually. But let’s say a man finds and marries this dream girl, will he go the extra mile to protect his wife’s fragility and not run roughshod over her emotions?
Your wife is going to look for support from you. Will you give it? If she thinks she wants power, will you give her love anyway, and just stick to your guns, figure out how to keep loving her?
When a couple marries with the notion that divorce is always an option, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Men have plenty of access to sex outside of marriage, so I think a man who marries really wants a life partner, but then the reality of what he has taken on hits home. Either he never took charge in the marriage or he refused to love her.
PS: I think you pushing the 2/3 statistic leads to cradle-robbing, and that huge power differential if not closely monitored is immoral. But even if it were moral, the young people today don’t even know if they’re a boy or a girl, so good luck with that.
