If it were actually rare, then I could see your point. It is not.
Granted, it is not as common as the other way around, but it is not this rare treasure either. It happens, especially in cities where the females outnumber the males. Spend a couple of weeks, in Charleston, SC. That is one of the cities where the females outnumber the males. I spent 4 years of college in that city. Trust me, it happens. Just not to me, lol.
We live in an increasingly liberal society (Thank God). This is actually a predictable outcome. As a result, it will become more and more common (again, Thank God.)
All that being said, I personally don't see females as anything to be nervous about; nor do I feel privileged when one takes notice. 5 years of marriage has taught me that they are just like us, only built different. They are just as loving, and just as evil as we are, lol. My ego remains unchanged.
