What do you think this poem is about?

A bad match

What is that your woman wants?
What does she look for in a man?
Even Sigmund Freud was helpless.
Man must be rich, successful, loving,
Caring, sensitive, ambitious,
Daring, providing and intelligent.
Beside these or more than these,
She wants to sway on who she gets
And next to it, to have her way.
Man and woman, famous, are a bad match.
