"Los solteros saben más sobre las mujeres que los hombres casados si no lo hicieran también estarían casados."
— H. L. Mencken
Simplified Meaning:
Single men often think they understand women very well, so they choose not to get married. They believe they understand relationships enough to avoid the challenges that come with marriage. For example, you might know a friend who avoids serious relationships because he thinks they will be complicated or difficult. He sees his married friends dealing with arguments and responsibilities, and he thinks he's smarter for staying single. However, this doesn't mean he really knows everything about women or relationships. Sometimes, people avoid commitment because they are afraid or unsure, not because they have more knowledge. If he were to get married, he might discover that understanding and working through those challenges is part of having a deeper connection with someone. So, it's important to realize that real understanding comes not just from observing but also from experiencing and growing within a relationship.
