Or she's hung up on him and being a pickmeisha here.
Possible it's like what Erwin said. The guy just doesn't want to get married, maybe he's even closeted. He's just saying this because sexist reasons are acceptable and he's getting constantly grilled about his singleness by friends and family.
It's still misogyny because he's choosing to throw women under the bus for social acceptance rather than take responsibility for his own choices in life.
Nothing new here.
Either way, the fact that the OP is giving this man's sexist opinion son.jch weight and credence shows some deep intrrnalized misogyny.
