Notes

Men and women are becoming less and less co-dependent on one another. Feminist would proudly proclaim this is a victory. But I doubt any woman would benefit from this tragedy. Men and women were designed so that they have needs each other fulfill. Men want sex and companionship. Women want protection and babies. Feminist would argue that not all women need to be protected or want babies. The first is false, and the second is statistically negligible. Many women assume they don't want babies in the early 20, and realize in their early 30's they want one badly. Men wont argue they don't want sex, and all souls need companionship for hard times.
So in the ideal relationship the man is a strong respected member of the community. And a women is a attractive, (at least to the man she is in a relationship in) who cares for and listens to the man's troubles and wishes.

The main issue with co-dependencies now is find a mate is harder then the alternatives. Women are looking for a man better off then themselves, so the list of potential mates decreases as the woman's status increases. The opposite is true for men. The higher their status the larger their pool becomes. So at the very top the men hold all the cards, and at the bottom women do. This is very discouraging for men. Once they realize that their at the bottom, and that the only thing that can get them women is improvement, they will retreat to porn.
