I have a question about the episode #1 REASON The Rate Of SINGLE MEN In The US Looking For Dates Has DECLINED | Chris Williamson and the clip Gender Roles Revisited. I feel that men have to work hard to gain social status and financial stability to attract women, while women are pursued regardless of their qualities. It seems like there are often many men interested in one woman, giving her the power to choose. Is this a common perspective, and what evidence supports or contradicts it?
