Unfortunately you are becoming more correct every year. I remember a time when women matured sooner than men. Now I look around and see a world of women that are 20+ that are still acting like teenage idiots.
As a man, I admit a time when women were more mature than men and miss those times very much.
The Evolution, I fear, is a social one and not an intellectual or psychological one.
I disagree with the article. The genders are reversed: I can only speak for myself, but I feel far more hurt than the women who I’ve had ... Temporary ... relationships with.
I’ve felt that women have had the freedom of choice, and men have to subliminally beg and plead for sex and sexual contact. This fosters other “male exclusive” tendencies, such as porn.
My experience has lead to some liberation : I learned how to play that game as well (Get good looking, or get rich... or both if you can). The result - I found a good girl, and will be getting married in 3 weeks !
Summary: I too learned how to be a “Lock” instead of a “Key”. (Thanks Spetznaz !)
