Summary

This quote refers to the dynamics of love where there tends to be a power imbalance between two individuals. One person takes the initiative and shows affection by being proactive in expressing love and intimacy (represented by the act of kissing), while the other tends to be less engaged or reciprocating, opting to receive love rather than actively participating (represented by offering the cheek). It implies that one person in the relationship is often more invested or eager for connection than the other, creating an asymmetrical dynamic.

I think the part of media that romanticizes criminal behavior, things that a person will say against women, profanity, being gangster, having multiple children with multiple men and women and not wanting to is prevalent.

There is bound to be variation in the population of males in their predisposition to be faithful husbands. If females could recognize such qualities in advance, they could benefit themselves by choosing males possessing them. One way for a female to do this is to play hard to get for a long time, to be coy. Any male who is not patient enough to wait until the female eventually consents to copulate is not likely to be a good bet as a faithful husband.
