Not arguing your point, because it is sad. In those type of men defense it’s because many women have made it not safe for a man who doesn’t have as much going for himself for whatever reasons to date a woman of that status. It’s kind of like they are saying “ you’re too good, advanced, or out of my league. “ when a situation occurs men are belittled, talked about, disrespected, and told they aren’t crap. Who wants that treatment. Happens way too often.
