    As for your other assertion

    The alleged "chaos" of modern dating has benefited the men-children quite nicely. It's actually the more grown-up men who have gotten screwed, and they're the ones who were writing to her.

    You are completely correct.

    This is a downward, self-feeding spiral. As more men learn the player tricks in order to get on the gravy train, women become ever more cynical towards ALL men.

    There, apparently, WAS a reason ancient societies felt that if the women had the chance to do as they please, the SOCIETY is LOST.

    It is proving out as we speak.
