A woman wants to be married more than a man wants to marry/ more than man means to marry does woman wish to wed

A woman is more interested in getting married than a man is.

("Rabbi Shimon said: Why did they say that a woman's ketubah is paid from the lowest-quality land? Because more than the man wants to marry, the woman wants to be married" — Gittin 49b. And similarly: "For the nature of woman is more inclined to desires than that of man. As our sages said, more than the man wants to marry a woman, the woman wants to be married, and this comes to her from Eve's curse, as it is written: 'In pain you shall bear children, and your desire shall be for your husband...'" — Tzror HaMor, Leviticus 4)
