There's a cultural idea that surrounds bachelors - stupid men find being a bachelor an ideal state. Perhaps this may be true, for a few years after adolescence - if they're still bachelors in their forties, it no longer seems healthy. Long has there been a double standard that associates single males as great and single women as bad. Let's analyze this phenomenon a bit more in order to understand what we women really think. Truth is, we don't find lifelong bachelors attractive, we actually think they are rather pathetic, just like spinsterhood is in women.
I've known a few men who were in their 40s and 50s and still bachelors and they still tried to get young women. I find such behaviour not only revolting but incredibly selfish. These men, if they persist in their erroneous thinking, end up being that "dirty old man" next door who winks at the twenty year old girls. Do you want to be such a social outcast because you wanted to play the field forever? At the end of the day, at the end of your life, whichever you choose, who will be there with you? A kind, loving woman - or perhaps your bachelor mates? Not to mention the fact that if they ever want to start a family- their cells will already be degenerating. Older fathers (past 40) are more likely to have autistic or even schizophrenic offspring:

TYPES OF MALE:
Type 1: Brainless women like this type of a man who is egotistical, good-looking (and knows it), pleasure-seeking, and a committment-phobe (which renders such a man completely ugly in my eyes):

Type 1.5: In-between types 1 & 2, are unsatisfied and disillusioned with life as a party boy, they strive for something more and head towards type 2...some don't make it though, and go back to Type 1.
Type 2: Smart, sensitive, good-looking (but modest) family man - that's what real women want:

This sort of man spells "keeper" all over him- the kind of man that won't drop you for the next thing in a skirt that passes by.
I believe that committment and responsibility form the glue that holds civilization together. Look at the state we are in now because of the general apathy towards and disrespect of personal unions. Was this decay evident in past societies? Yes, but then those societies ceased to exist. What is important is that we maintain our values from the past in regards to family and social life. Far too much emphasis is placed on personal instant gratification and this belief is in itself costly, for it inevitably causes more social turmoil.
