I often see women engaging in this type of thing. It seems like bargaining to me. That if they can just find the right category of man they will find a good one for a relationship or be treated as a full human being.
Here are some of the categories of men women try to tell themselves might be better than others:
Older men
Younger men
Men of certain ethnicities
Gay men
Male family members
Men they've given birth to
Men they meet while volunteering
Men who don't identify as men
Widowers
Religious men
Men of a particular political persuasion
Men who have been in therapy
Men who have or don't have children
I'm sure I've missed a lot. The thing is all of these men have one thing in common:
THEY ARE MEN
And I will bet my last dollar they are going to show you exactly that at some point. They will always prioritize other men over women. I see this every day.

I'm glad this harpy will die miserable. It's better than suicide because the pain will be forever for her.
