But now - black, brown, yellow, pink - any baby will do. She scours the streets seeking out her prey: a suitable mate. Possible candidates are subjected to the utmost scrutiny. The single woman has honed the art of rejection to perfection, and she can tell at twenty paces a premature ejaculator, a freakish genetic structure, and that most hated of the male species, a commitment phobe.

For the single woman nearing forty is terrified to admit to her fellow female friends - they whom have obsessed over Brad Pitt and compared dildoes together - that she is considering giving it all up, in order to become a slave - to the cradle.
This period will last perhaps six months, and then the single woman will sensible decide to date a younger male instead and indulge her mother fantasies and raging libido with wild, uncontrollable sex.
