A girl at the gym today — one with way better abs than me, I might add — overheard me telling my trainer about the bottomless void of my love life.
“You have to read this book,” she said, straddling the leg curl backwards, after announcing that she’d been eavesdropping. “It’s called Why Men Marry Bitches. It’s changed everything for me.”
I do some research on this book, and apparently it indicates that men like women who are confident, financially secure and independent. In my experience, though, men like these qualities in a woman as long as they exist in quantities not to exceed their own.
And, like, I’m already such a bitch.
And what, then, of those tomes that suggest men prefer women who don’t challenge them, who support and agree with them, who don’t make them feel small and emasculated?
I just need someone to write Why Men Don’t Marry You, Sasha. Could someone please get on that? I expect it to be long and dense, but it would be nice if you could include lots of pictures to make it go down smoother. I also work particularly well with flowcharts.
