thats the problem, you can't tell wtf it implies, its taken out of context. when i read it, i hear the tone of a woman who's already responsible financially and independent and doesn't want to be the only one as such in a relationship. but, like i said, i could be wrong.
sure, it could be made in a gender-neutral fashion, but maybe the text its taken from isn't anywhere near gender-neutral? if everything that was written was made to be PC, literature would suck.
