The Source of Masculine Toxicity.

complete equality is where he's coming from.

For some strange reason I am surrounded by men who are aloof to marriage or even live-in relationships. I can think of five right at this moment.

When they do have relationships with women, they are almost always with professional women who have stellar careers. But overall, they are indifferent to "finding" someone. They don't look for relationships and seem to have satisfying, interesting lives without a steady someone.

I honestly think that if the RG didn't have me, he would make absolutely no effort to get into a relationship.

Recently the RG and I had dinner with one of indifferent men I mention in my second paragraph, a professional who travels the world and has a prestigious job which requires several advanced degrees. He mentioned he had stayed with a childhood friend while he visited Spain. I asked what the friend's wife was like and he said, "Oh he's not married. He's just trying to get through life without this wife and kid thing, like I am."

Another moment where I burst out laughing.

These guys just want to have a life without strings. I think they are wary of getting sidetracked from their career goals. If they could find a woman who could work with that, they would probably be involved with someone.

They are the opposite of the kind of guy you're describing. These guys can't be bothered with suppressing any women. In their minds, they have more important things to do in life.
