If there were ever fighting words, the headline of my story would be enough to make most men go down to Knuckle Junction.

I got bored tonight, so I decided to scour the online personals to see what was out there. There was no shortage of lonely souls out there just itching to find Mr. Right or Missus Right Now? Since I am a guy, I was looking at the never ending paragraph of what women want. Yes this seems to be a r...
