In our social group there are now a lot of women friends who are missing out on partnerships.

So, men are so shallow that all they want is sex - that is what marriage is only about, sex? Companionship, procreation, love... means nothing.
And aren't marriages based on sex alone usually destined for failure? The ones I have seen headed south pretty fast.
And maybe many women like working - just like men. We like being valued for our skills in the workforce, we like the independence that it affords us, the value of friendship of those you work with and the reward of being successful at what you do. I assume you enjoy working, why would women be any different?
