My observations as a High School teacher were not framed in religious teaching. I was just sharing personal observations. I was truly amazed by what I witnessed. Your outrage is lightweight compared to the disappointment I felt regarding this issue. I get the feeling here you want to beat up the messenger for the message. Like it or not, we are very different than women in the way we approach our relationships. Now if you disagree with that I am interested in hearing what you have to say.
I can't disagree with what you said. By the way, my teaching experience was in an American small town high school. None of the students were Muslim. I'm not claiming to know what women want. I was not stating an opinion, I was making an observation. In speaking to a psychologist and trying to understand women, I was told that what they say they want or are looking for often doesn't match their behavior. My question had to do with the popular comments of wanting a humble, peaceful and sensitive guy vs the obvious popularity of the wealthy, loud and aggressive hunks.

<<NOW what does islam say as to sex before marriage for both the man and woman? Or does the man have free reign over whether he can or cannot have flings before he marries also.>>

Why do I always get the idea that you are trying to set me up. Of course sex before marriage or outside of marriage is forbidden (for both sexes). That isn't a serious question is it? Was that sarcasm.
