Ultimately, we will one day all feel and express authentic love for all humanity...agape love, platonic and seeking the highest good of the other equally to our own. For no reason aside from wanting their best.

When we all know who we are, and when we all consciously choose to live in alignment with who we are (at centre, in spirit, etc), then your words will not be a commandment. They will simply be what is.

You will love me platonically, for who I am, seeking my highest good for no other reason but my good. And I will love you in the same way. And the same for everyone else. That is the truth in your statement...in reference to a future state of humanity where the authentic love that we are has been realised (manifested) in our day-to-day lives.

IMPORTANTLY, agape has absolutely nothing to do with me (as a woman) or any woman having sex with any man. My love for humanity is not a sexual love. That is the truth of womankind. Sex is not an intrinsic part of agape love, which is the foundational love of human existence, between family, beloved friends, even the kindness shown to strangers.

Men need to be very clear -- I don't want you or any other man to assume that I desire you physically under any circumstances, because 9.99B times out of 10B, the answer will be NO. Agape love is love for one another simply as people and as friends (or strangers if more distantly). Only if we've built a long-term agape beloved friendship AND we both feel we can commit to a life partnership, would sex and physical intimacy be welcomed.

We are not meant to be intimate with 99.9999999999% of humanity (I through in a few extra decimals for good measure), because this level of resonance and compatiblity occurs only at the soul level and requires even more than the authentic love we each deserve from one another. It requires soul resonance, and a mutuality of maturity, awareness, integrity, and a meaningful level of commitment day-to-day.

And if I and most other emotionally mature, grounded women don't have authentic love and the other basics for a healthy, appealing partnership then we simply don't need sex. Only the females predators are out trolling on the margins after this point, and if you want to be treated with dignity, you cannot let your lust and her easy sex be your basis for any "relationship."

At a certain point, women have found their feet. They already know they've got loads of love and connection in their lives. Sex without authentic love is both unappealing and grasping, and it's simply not necessary for us. The desperation you may see and the ease with which you can manipulate some women will largely evaporate once those women have had kids and find their feet. Then you will need to start a new chapter anyway, so why not begin now and simply begin to connect with people as they are?

I know this goes against the mindset of our rather debased and undisciplined culture which says that you should indulge yourself whenever you like. But it's how grounded, emotionally mature women are wired. Not the immature or the predators you've dealt with. And when men discipline themselves and find their feet, they too realise that without the foundational agape love of souls, their lust and their sentimentality is not enough to overcome the lack and the dissonance.

Particularly for women, without a mutuality of authentic love for one another as people and as souls and as beloved friends, it is nearly impossible to sustain desire for a man's touch. Many engage in pretense or in a willingness to please a man (or to control him, if predatory), just as many men engage in a lot of deceit and misdirection regarding love and commitment to get sex and touch (also manipulative and predatory), but that's not ideal in either case.

If you direct your self-serving focus to a more balanced focus on others and their well being, as well, I think you could make a lot of headway in forming real friendships, getting real love into your life via friendship, and being honest where you'd perhaps like more if the feeling is mutual. Because we generally don't use, abuse, or exploit our friends...so the entire context is much healthier and more loving.
Peace & blessings
