 >I have also indicated that there are exceptions so not sure where the myopia stuff is coming from other than your bias based on the grace you have encountered in life ?

It is a fairly round about way of saying "stfu you got lucky"

As for the second paragraph, its what we've been talking about. Yeah, those trends are out there and it does suck, nobody here is saying they dont, but you gotta look through the fog and see what is real. Just because you THINK youre going to get lit up by some random lady doesnt mean that it will. Be a good judge of character and take that chance. We should have things be where there doesnt have to be that thought in the back of every mans mind, but we also have to look after one another and lay it out like it is. 

You thinking that every western woman is out fleece every man possible is divorced from reality. What is true is that those women who do look to do that, do have an easy time doing just that with current court systems being what they are. But that fact, or other similar facts, doesnt automatically mean every woman is going to do that. 
 once again i DIDNT SAY EVERY and have in fact several times stated that there are exceptions - and clarified FURTHER that the exception prives the rule - the fuck is wrong with you ?

also - you asked dude...

you dont wanna hear the answer dont ask

 and i meant grace when i said it ... luck is entirely different and i dont believe in it. 
 Dude has his mind made up, why are you arguing with him? 
 I have guys in my life who take this same viewpoint right after rejection or during periods of loneliness, its good practice to talk them out of it.
