hehehe Yeah it is Orwellian. I think it's connected to their favorite trope of women needing and craving dick. That plus porn created to reflect male fantasies.

Sex isn't the only thing men want, but it's the top thing on the list. And they don't like having to do so much adulting to get it, like all the stuff involved in building and maintaining an adult relationship.

My theory is, an awful lot of men just don't grow up emotionally. Maybe it's a lack of grown-up male role models. Maybe it's too much of the no-emotion stereotype. Or the trope of bad boys getting all the girls by treating them like shit.

What's really Orwellian is how men love to pretend they are more rational than women. I wrote about that here.
