"With dating, the woman's family fell out of the courtship equation" p.83

The author poses an very interesting here: why do some keep dating the so-called "fuckboys" which seem to be the fundamental reasons for breakups, while others, dated "good guys", but still decided to break up with them? The idea of scarcity of "good guys" has long been rooted in mainstream culture and women oftentimes are "trained" to believe in the urgent need of grasping onto something good.
