I have always erred on the side of prudence, in keeping myself well-distanced from marriage. It just did not seem like a good idea at any particular time of my life.
Through the decades, though, most women ignored me, when I was very conventionally dressed.
Only after I was in my fifties, and had begun my unconventional dressing phase, did the women begin to take notice, and to seek me out.
Most women like the normal and ordinary among men. Most women, that is, but hardly all of them.
Quite frequently I meet women who are attracted by by my nouveau style, and they are often very generous with their compliments about my appearance.
Women are not a monolithic block, and they have their individual tastes and preferences, just like men do.
