    Ah, ok, could be.
    I was first thinking of a rifle joke I didn’t get, but your possible explanation makes more sense.

      Not could be, is. Any classified ad type of partner searching uses the M4W format (man for woman in that case). Not as common now as it was before tinder and the like, but people used to post what they were looking for in a partner in places like Craigslist, and even newspapers although I believe those spelled out man for woman.
