A bachelor is a man who is not married (see single person). The term is restricted to men who are not in a pair bond that will produce children and are not actively seeking a long-term partner.
Research done by sociologists Richard Pitt and Elizabeth Borland sharpens the definition of bachelor to mean "men who live independently, outside of their parents' home and other institutional settings, who are neither married nor cohabitating" because these researchers discovered that these profiled men were more liberal in their attitudes towards women's roles in society; this was not the case for those men who were "unmarried" outside this profile.
The terms "confirmed bachelor" or "lifelong bachelor" can refer to men who show little interest in marriage or other types of committed relationships, although now almost archaic due to more liberal social attitudes. These terms, as well as others such as "not the marrying kind" or "never met the right woman" are today not to be confused with being gay. That said, the term "confirmed bachelor" was a code or euphemistic term used to describe homosexual men, especially entertainers and athletes, in the era before the sexual revolution of the 1960s when homosexuality was not socially accepted and the stars needed a palatable explanation for why they were unmarried.
Oprah Winfrey (born Orpah Gail Winfrey; January 29, 1954) is an American media proprietor, talk show host, actress, producer, and philanthropist. Winfrey is best known for her self-titled, multi-award-winning talk show, which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in history and was nationally syndicated from 1986 to 2011. She has been ranked the richest African-American of the 20th century, the greatest black philanthropist in American history, and was for a time the world's only black billionaire. She is also, according to some assessments, the most influential woman in the world.
Winfrey was born into poverty in rural Mississippi to a teenage single mother and later raised in an inner-city Milwaukee neighborhood. She experienced considerable hardship during her childhood, claiming to be raped at age nine and becoming pregnant at 14; her son died in infancy. Sent to live with the man she calls her father, a barber in Tennessee, Winfrey landed a job in radio while still in high school and began co-anchoring the local evening news at the age of 19. Her emotional ad-lib delivery eventually got her transferred to the daytime-talk-show arena, and after boosting a third-rated local Chicago talk show to first place, she launched her own production company and became internationally syndicated.
