You won't hear a bunch of men gossiping away saying, "Boy, he really settled for her. He could have done so much better" Men just don't look at it that way. We will comment on another guy's relationship sure. For example, "Man, he married a bitch". But that's about it. Generally you just figure that your friend is happy and so be it.
I call BS

Most of my friends are guys and they most definitely DO do this exact thing. They will sit around for hours talking about a girl that one of their joint friends is seeing and how he could do better then her, discussing her flaws and how the two of them will never be happy together.

This is not a purely female thing

But then again I am one of those women you hate - I will not settle. I will not commit myself to a relationship that doesn't make me happy simply because I am afraid of ending up alone. There are just some things that I could not live with and I have no intention of trying.

and MrFriendly you know very well I can't answer that question
