In the wise words of Bill Cosby: Why is there air?

Important life lesson: you don't need to "get it", although I suspect that if you gave it more than a passing thought, you'd figure out the answer to your question. But to save you the effort, here's the primary reason: someone is suffering a loss. And that's exactly what it is for many young women who are experiencing rejection and failure for the first time. They didn't get what they wanted, or what they were told they wanted, or what they thought they wanted. It's painful, and the coping mechanisms are what they are.

I suspect that you'd be looking at this through a different lens had you actually gone through recruitment and had some first-hand experience and understanding of the entire process.
