Kate Bolick's well-researched and entertaining essay in The Atlantic about the challenges of being a single woman in our culture ........
Bolick whines that the dating scene is populated by an increasing number of men who are either deadbeats or players and what a bane this is for women.....
But why is Bolick single? Why at 39 does she have "too many ex-boyfriends to count?" Because, she says, she elevated "independence over coupling." Because time after time there was "something missing" in the stable relationships she chose to end. Player? Deadbeat? Would it be unfair to apply those labels to Bolick? What would Bolick's ex-boyfriends call her if they got together to whine?
