Oh, right I lost track at some point.You must not have read everything I've written in this thread. Once again, I am a millennial (somewhere between 27 and 42 years old) and I am not attracted to men. I am (romantically) attracted to women only. I briefly (average ~3 months) dated men in the past, and the experiences were unpleasant for several reasons. The biggest reason, of course, was that I was obviously going against who I am.
However, regardless of that detail, those few, very brief experiences, coupled with the multitude of anecdotes I've heard from other women (of all ages) led me to conclude that most men seem to "tolerate" women in relationships just for convenient access to sex. It then made me wonder why men even bother to get into committed relationships with women at all when broken down to the basics, that's all they really want; sex, food, hobbies, and silence. That's it. Hence, "the research."
Look, our discussion is turning around. You made your mind, I'm not saying your off track by far. Every stage of growing up is different. Your describing a young men fresh from adulthood. Your description doesn't match with most educated grown up men. If your interest is in "why men even bother to get into committed relationships". Why not just ask?
I invite you to go in the straight section and simply ask : why are you with your girlfriend?
The response may surprise you. It would for certain beat the hell out of just stipulating on bad behavior.
Anyway. I'm done here, good luck with your research, I hope it's bring you peace.
