No matter where you go, men seem to think they have plenty of fish to choose from. Do they cheesy I believe women have just as many fish to choose from. Notice I don't cite any statistics. I don't want to know the facts of this issue-it may make me feel bad about myself...Lol

This is a generally acknowledged fact, that there are more females than males in the world. It's a really good motive for the females to work harder in maintaining the bond in their relationships, while the males focuses more on their natural bread-winning role.
However, it counts for nothing when such males go against the ethics and norms they'll have to observe, with respect to their relationship.

I tend to agree that there are more eligible women than men. Maybe this is where the assertion comes from

e.g if 10 boys and 10 girls were born

--------------------------------------------------------
On the men side

1 might have died in hustle e.g trekking to Europe, car racing, Peddling drugs, Oil bunkering and other high risk stuff men engage in

1 might have died in war or street violence

1 might be in jail.

1 might be GAYY

1 might think he needs to acquire the whole world before he marries since he doesnt have a biological clock

1 might just be an eternal playboy who think he is Gods gift to ALL women

1 might just be a bum who wouldnt work or get an education and just laze around which many women dont find attractive

Leaving the pool of eligible men with just 3 guys
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the female side

-Women dont die as much because they naturally avoid high risk ventures.
-Dont go to war and dont do gangsterism,
-They dont go to jail as much,
-The notion of the biological clock puts a time pressure on them
-The society frowns at "Playgirls" as against playboys
-Most cultures dont expect much economic power from the woman so even a woman without 1 Naira sees herself as eligible unlike a man who might not be economically eligible even with 5million in his account

Therefore we might still have 7-8 eligible women

So ratio 3:7

I don't think many women out there have the "plenty of fish in the sea" mindset, unlike men. Men have a larger base to choose from, women do not have that luxury.

Yes there's a lot of fish in the sea and a lot of men want to fool around because of that.



Some in the process have ended up with an Octopus or mammywater.

I hate to burst your bubble but your statistic is wrong. There more more men than women in the world. However women are more attractive and are less incarcerated, away at war or at sea than men. That is why you tend to see more women than men. But statistically, more men than women.

I dont have a proof to say that this is true but I believe most men have this mindset especially in Nigeria as I know of because our culture permits the mindset.

1) Marry more than one wife.

2) Chase away a woman if she is caught cheating.

3) Lord over her in a chauvinistic way.

4) Sleep around with numerous girls and it will be considered a feat.

This and so many makes us believe that we can get as many as we want.

Kind of true!

Statistically, they are more men than women in the world today. However, a lot of factors leave women with little choose of men.

1. Culture/religion: most culture and religion around the world have in one way or the other confined women to the background. Women are made to believe that their role is inside the house. They've been made to believe that they are weak, nothing, worthless and with no choice. Most grow believing this.

2. Natural factor: women tend to age quickly, thereby try as much as possible to score a man of her own before its too late. And when they score, they jealously guard it.

3. Pregnancy: This period of 9 months takes a toll on women as they become unattractive within this period.

4. Family: Women are easily emotionally attached...and thereby family oriented. Men can abandon his 5 kids and pregnant wife just for a worthless woman. Women hardly do this.

However, in China; the reverse is the case. Men worship their. Women for fear of not scoring another woman.
Its estimated that by 2025, women in China would have about 10 men to choose from.

As for me, there's only one fish in the ocean and I have her, I will never let her go. If I lose her, (God forbid) then the ocean will be empty.

I doubt if i've ever used that stale line ''Many fishes in the Ocean''.

We've all got our view with regard to choosing a partner and i tell you many of us are of the opinion that the 'ocean' has ran short of edible fishes.

A good fish doesnt last long in the ocean, they're edible and are prime candidate for consumption, so they're hunted eachday and taken to diverse homes.

As it stands, there are few 'edible' fishes in the ocean, those tides are now filled with Sharks [Runs gals] and Stonefishes [Unambitious gals] cheesy
