We must be on different planets. Most women I know know exactly what they want: marriage, mortgage, kids. Most of the men are blundering idiots who don't really want anything, but are dragged along in the women's wake.
Perhaps we can create a synthesis then: (1) Most men want women, (2) while most women want the “good life” (marriage, mortgage, kids), so most men put up with those because (1).
