Why can't they just spend time with them to determine their character? If you accept the idea that the woman picks the man? Then the reasons for so many failed marriges and relationships? Is women use the wrong criteria in selecting a man for a marrige or a relationship.

Wow...I don't require much from anyone that I can't learn or figure out how to do by myself. I would hope that anyone I choose to be in a realationship with is with me 'cause he genuinely digs me (and I him).
I'm sorry you feel that way, Recall...what the heck happened to give you that impression of women?

It's been my experience in the singles world. Even if you check dating sites like Match you will see it appears their major requirement is traveling,upscale eateries,and major events.

Sadly, I've noticed the same thing.
Women are SO unreasonable. They usually require men to do a whole lot of travelling: once at around 8:30am and yet more travelling at about 5:00pm. Five days a week, no less!
Women, please tell us, what's up with all these unreasonable requirements?

Because women hate to be bored. Women are the most bored creatures in the universe. They require lots of "things" to do. They need to do things so they can talk about them with other women. They often hold thingaware parties where women get together and talk about what things they did and with whom. They also exchange things with one another.
I sort of bundle things and events together. Women don't know the difference as long as it gives them material to talk about. How often has a woman asked you, "So, what did you today?" or "How was your day?". This is how it all starts. Women are geneticially designed to self-destruct when there are no more things to do or talk about but before doing they will first cause you agony.
If you have an compassion or respect for a woman you will always PLAN things and events in advance. You will earn their love and admiration as a "man of things with things". She will tell her friends all about you and your things.

I'm not too sure about what you mean about "major events," but I do find that men are routinely guilty of the inability to distinguish between consciousness raising and just plain bitching. Can't say I blame you men, since it is a little confusing, but consciousness raising is about sharing stories about various frustrations in life (at Tupperware parties or say, in the Bedroom) so that we can all see how sexism is weaved into our daily lives.
Bitching is complaining about a guy who say...doesn't replace the empty toilet paper holder with a new one or uses his dishes right out of the dishwasher without emptying it first. Of course, if one realizes that he does that because he expects you to empty the dishwasher because you’re his personal servant or something, you’re getting into consciousness raising.
Then there's the idea that men are babies...which comes from people that, hard as this may be to believe, support male dominance and a patriarcal society. This pseudo-scientific claim that men are born to be emotional cripples came from a book called "Why Gender Matters" by Dr. Leonard Sax. Sax is a clear leader in the Woman Hater’s Club because his book recommends that “inherent” differences between boys and girls mean that boys and girls should be separated in school so boys can get educated and girls can learn how to be good wives to them.
Funny, right? It gets better...
Sax recommends that boys should be encouraged to be competitive, while girls should have their energies directed towards learning to be mommies. Also noteworthy is his hostility towards teaching girls math.
So why do so many people who support male dominance argue that their preferred social dominators are immature? Well, because it sounds better than, “Bitch, get back in the kitchen!"
In conclusion, Women are in fact NOT geneticially designed to self-destruct when there are no more things to do or talk about, because we never have the opportunity to be "bored" since many of us are single mother's, traveling hundreds of miles a day (to work, school and soccer practice, etc.) in order to "take over the world" so you men won't screw it up for the children that you forgot to support...generally speaking, of course.
BTW...that was also concious raising, in the event you didn't understand. All those unreasonable requirements you assume we expect of you are nothing more than what we expect from ourselves.
It's a wonder men and women get together in the first place...all these "inherent" differences between us and all!
Personally...I love men. Some of my best friends are men. Many of their lady companions are very thankful I'm their man's friend, 'cause it makes life easier on them...and I'm a non-conformist, hetero-sexual feminist...in the event you needed a label.
