For man being romantic and fully loving (and supporting) someone is considered as "weakness" in patriarchic society, and that role is "for mothers and wives". There even slur for such men - "henpecked". So men can be wanting to love, but they taught to not. Fear of being rejected by society can move some men to violence (I know at least one example).

At least I can openly support and love women as friends (not sure if it is legit phrasing in English, but in our language there 3 different words for "love" and one of them has meaning of very deep friendship - I mean that last one) and don't afraid of that slur, because I already marked by other, even worse crime - of being a gay man.

The question is however, do men actually love women, or do they love "cool girls", men "trapped" in hot female bodies?

I think men's ideal would be to have the maternal, sweetly feminine mommy-partner, and then the cool girl, "thinks like a man but built like a woman" bang-partner and fun-partner.

So not one, but two women lol. Now that i remember, there was a very famous classic writer in my country that literally wrote a book about having two women, one motherly and protective, the other hot and sensual. So yeah you may be right.

"Ask men to describe their ideal woman and watch them describe a slave"

I am pretty sure men can love women, but do most want to?
