She's trying to un-open Pandora's box. Even in my misspent young womanhood in the late 80s and 90s, I was a rare femme unicorn. Unlike my peers, I gave a crap about feminine things like cleaning, keeping house, and cooking plus I actually could do all three competently.
There is a big group of young women these days who bring very little to the table. They are often promiscuous, which is absolutely fine if you anticipate that your sex partner is going to be the exact same way, and of course they're hypocrites, they're looking for Mr. Faithful.
Of course young men aren't offering much either. This isn't their fault, as most of them have been raised to be lazy, thoughtless, spineless wussies. Even in my day, I didn't feel it was my job to enchant the overgrown man-child away from his video games and comic books. Puer Aeternis was annoying to date and he was EVERYWHERE. One of the biggest reasons I married an older man was not money (my husband was extremely poor when we married) but because he wasn't into video games and/or watching other men tackle each other on TV.
Another pet peeve of mine is men and women who are significantly overweight or average to below average in the looks department but who are obsessed with landing a piece of arm candy. Translation from the Bulls**tese in such cases is "Don't you dare judge me on my looks, which of course I'll do next to nothing to care about or maintain, but I'm going to choose you mostly for your good looks and then drain the life out of you with guilt in our relationship."
Then there are the women who accuse men of rape simply because the dudes were lousy and inconsiderate in bed. I'm thinking of Emma Sulkowicz, who carried a mattress around her university campus in a cringeworthy fit of pique. True to her name, Emma knew how to sulk! During the height of MeToo, Aziz Ansari, another lousy lay, suffered similar allegations. There's no going back from such a preening eunuch's culture. The cat's out of the bag. It will end when they are all 400 years in their graves and a new culture stirs from the ashes of the vanished industrial age.
