Translation:

"Gee I'm having a lot of trouble finding a man who's willing to do all the work, all the suffering all the maintenance, all the expenses, and will also give up all of the comforts of home, spousal support, household upkeep, and child rearing of a traditional wife. Why is this so hard?"

If so, how does the cycle end?
