LW #3 is another example of the "my partner is perfect but" syndrome. Anyone care to speculate on why this topic seems more prevalent with female LWs ("he's perfect but") in contrast to this week's instance ("she's perfect but")?

Because most men won't put up with that crap?

Because men don't invest their partner with dreams of perfection in the first place?

There is a higher percentage of advice seekers from advice columnists who are female, yes?

nuff said. I'm sure men complain just as much, just not in this particular forum. We have seen similar letters from men in Prudence before....

regardless, i think all these people should be given the brown acid and made to shut up.

men don't think women are perfect.
