I'm not saying it's a major issue, but if it's something that a woman is concerned about then far more of the blame especially in the modern era lies on her choices vs anything else. I was not trying to imply it was in competition with anything else. Simply that feminism pushes women towards life choices that increase risk regarding pregnancy and child birth.

Thank you... also I think there's a valid argument that the risk of death or complications in pregnancy/child birth at this point in time is primarily due to feminism. Our bodies are most fertile and best suited for pregnancy in our twenties through early thirties... but feminism has pushed women to wait longer, take drugs that alter normal body chemistry for long periods of time, and abort pregnancies to avoid "ruining their life"... all of which can have negative effects on fertility, overall …

Standard practice doesn't mean mandatory... name one practice that is mandatory on an infant. The reason I know there isn't one is because I can legally have a home birth without any medical professionals involved. When I had my daughter in the hospital last year you consent to all the care before the birth even happens and you can specifically opt out of any treatments or tests you do not want... if you're not happy with options at your hospital you can find a different hospital, go to a birthi…

What other medical test or treatment does the US government force upon children without due process or consent of at least one parent? The answer is nothing. Also if you're dismissing my position based on my sex, then you're no different than a feminist who says that men's opinions don't matter by virtue of their sex.

I'm still fully against mandatory testing for all. It's a violation of our rights for the government to require medical testing without consent. It's something you can have if you want it, and I think all the laws surrounding family court, child support, etc need to be improved, such as making paternity fraud a crime like other types of fraud... but I just cannot agree with giving the government that kind of power over people's lives to demand they have certain tests just for basically existing.…

You don't need the mother for the test. If you have access to the child you only need a swab of the child's DNA and yours. If you don't have access to the child then you can have the test court ordered. But you do not need the mother's consent or even knowledge that the test is being conducted. Of course it can be an offensive thing to ask for, cheating is a very immoral thing, and the only reason someone would ask for a paternity test is if they think the mother was unfaithful. People generally…

Assuming you have access to the child, you do not need the mother's consent to do a paternity test post-birth. If you do not have access to the child then disputing paternity should be your first step in the courts and they can order the paternity test.

So why not just make paternity fraud an actual crime like any other kind of fraud? Y'know with actual prison time and paying restitution to the victim... rather than forcing people into expensive tests against their consent. Forcing people to pay for and take tests against their will though is just as egregious as places that are attempting to force their citizens to take a vaccine against their will. Especially in the US you cannot be forced to take medical tests or treatment without due proces…

It's definitely not what people are saying... mandatory means there's no opt-out ability. If you agree it should be offered just like the litany of other tests during L&D but not forced, then yes I agree that's perfectly fine. People should have access to whatever medical tests they want to have and pay for, without threat of government force... and other people shouldn't have to pick up the cost either. Just like I don't think female health costs should be charged to everyone who has insurance …

If there's an opt-in or out option then it's not mandatory... it's already a test that you can ask for at the hospital, or get done as genetic screening during pregnancy. I'm not against people having the option or ability. But I draw the line at using government force to make people do things without their consent.
/r/AntiFeminists25/07/22 01:05 PM

An individual committing something that should be a crime, is not the same as giving the government the right to determine your choices and expenses for you. Once the baby is born there's literally nothing stopping you from performing a paternity test if that's what you want to do. But opening the door for the government to start mandating medical tests is to give the government permission to ignore individual consent without due process... there's no way it would stop at paternity testing.

It makes me a feminist because I think it's a bad idea for the government to remove personal consent from people? How?

Because when we remove consent for one thing it opens the door for the government to remove our consent for other things.

But then you have extremely prominent second wave feminists like Simone de Beauvoir who argued "No woman should be authorized to stay at home to raise her children. Society should be totally different. Women should not have that choice, precisely because if there is such a choice, too many women will make that one. It is a way of forcing women in a certain direction." So yes, feminism has been at odds with being a house wife or stay at home mother for decades... it's often treated disdainfully a…

Studies actually indicate that housewives report greater happiness and satisfaction levels than career women. Likewise female happiness has decreased as female labor force participation has increased from the 70s until now. Now as an anecdotal observation, I have never once seen a mom in any of my mom groups who wanted to work full time when part time or staying home were options. A lot of moms actually struggle terribly with depression when they have to return to work and leave their kids, even…

This also has the same feminist tones that imply that having a family is worthless... yet I would argue that overall societal happiness has taken a nosedive since people started embracing this concept. Is having a family the only thing you need to be happy? Obviously not. But it sure as heck is a lot more fulfilling for the vast majority of people than a career or bumming around without any goals.

So their personal consent to medical procedures and tests doesn't matter? Personal choice doesn't matter when you think you know better? By this logic, what's wrong with the feminist stance of forcing men to have vasectomies? Afterall, they clearly know what best for society regardless of the individual's consent or opinion.
/r/AntiFeminists24/07/22 09:49 PM

I think fixing family law and child support is the correct option here... otherwise you're essentially adopting an "I know what's better for people regardless of what they want" approach, which is exactly the same attitude feminists use to bully people into the choices they think should be made. Make paternity fraud a crime... not only should the man be reimbursed any costs but the mother should face the same penalties she would face for any other types of fraud.

Which would contribute to increased insurance costs for everyone... so again you're still forcing people to pay for it who do not want it. They're just paying indirectly instead. I already disagree with maternity coverage not being an add on choice for those who want it because it results in men and child-free people being forced to share the cost when they don't use any of those services... and I say that as a woman who has needed and used that coverage.
/r/AntiFeminists24/07/22 09:38 PM

So basically we should void parental and individual consent for a medical test or procedure, and force people to also pay for that breach of consent, and that's not a problem to you? No one who wants to have their children tested at birth is unable to do so, you can even test during pregnancy if you like... so why force people who either don't care or don't want it to pay for it and undergo tests against their will?
/r/AntiFeminists24/07/22 08:05 PM

That still doesn't mean it should be mandatory, if either parent wants it or chooses it then that's fine. But forcing either tax payers or couples to bear that extra cost without a choice to opt out isn't a good solution.

Most of prenatal and L&D costs is covered by insurance as long as you have it. Very few people are actually paying $30k out of pocket. My final costs under two different insurances, both of which were high deductible plans were around $2k for vaginal delivery. However, insurance won't cover anything that's not considered necessary, which includes pretty much all genetic testing. I've opted out of the genetic screenings offered for both pregnancies but I remember bring told they were around $750-…

Yes, but considering it sound like she's still a teenager I think the blame is mostly on her upbringing and education... many girls never even realize that this is a problem and grow into absolutely toxic, unhappy women. I think teenagers and younger deserve some pass, they're still just products if their environment rather than really developed as individuals... they certainly didn't create the society they've been raised in.

While I agree, traits that are masculine are actually necessary and good for society. The fact that people have aligned those traits with being toxic is just a way to shame men out of being strong, independent adults... it's a power grab.

Men and women being different doesn't mean that we should lower standards and expectations for women. Plenty of people are immature, that doesn't mean that should be the standard.

What specifically is sexualized here? Both comments are just talking about how they felt nice after getting complimented, which is pretty normal. If a kid told you they though you looked cool or complimented your shoes, and you felt nice about it, does that mean you're sexualizing them? Obviously not. Don't get me wrong predatory behavior definitely happens, I just think it's a reach to call the screenshot above an example of sexualizing teenage boys.

Now I recognize that many people are not religious, but the idea of having sex when your spouse is in the mood even if you aren't is at least as old as the Bible. Certainly much older than feminism. Of course with adultery being one of the worst sins, the way they attempted to prevent it was by saying that you belong to your spouse and them to you, and that both man and woman are obligated to fulfill the sexual needs of their marital partner. Feminism may also state this at times, but the concep…

Mood swings are fine, acting out or behaving poorly because of them is not. I'm not going to act as if people are obligated to be in a good mood all the time, because that's ridiculous. But even if you're in a bad mood that's no excuse to take it out on other people, doing so is abusive... hormonal mood swings are no exception.

Because if antifeminism is just about "one group has unfairly low standards so everyone should have unfairly low standards, society be damned" then it's not really any better than feminism. People point out all the ways we're worse off for not holding women accountable for bad behavior, but when men behave poorly it's just "well he could've behaved worse"? No, the solution has to be hold everyone to that same higher standard or all we're doing is speed running society into the ground. The one ch…

I mean I think you can blame him to some extent. If I shot my spouse because I was emotionally devastated, I'd still be held responsible, as I should be. This is the mother's fault that the situation got this way, but he could have dropped the child off safely at home with the mother before leaving. Putting the kid in a possible position of harm isn't really excusable.

No... then all the feminists would be whining about the woman being subservient and domestic, calling her a "pick me".

I'd avoid the stuff that claims they originated in the 19th century. They've been in European cultures since at least the 16th century. And part of the reason that antique corsets also have such tiny waists is simply because people were smaller. For example the average Norwegian man during the 19th century was 5'4", today it's 5'11"... women also got larger (overall, not just fatter). I also picked Norway because they're one of the taller populations.

Actually there was more nuance to the corset than just that. Yes, there was tight-lacing... but the average corset actually served a similar purpose to the brassiere. It was supportive for both breasts and posture, "well-fitting corsets were quite comfortable, did not restrict breathing, and allowed women to work, although they did restrict bending at the waist, forcing one to protect one's back by lifting with the legs." Tight lacing was not as common a practice as once thought and instead actu…

Everyone I know who had an unplanned pregnancy literally used zero methods to prevent it. Meanwhile my spouse and I successfully planned our kids by using condoms and tracking my ovulation.

That's a fundamental misunderstanding of Numbers 5:11-31 btw. The full context is that if the woman had committed adultery then she would be cursed to die (further texts also state that the man she was involved with would also die), but if she had not committed adultery then she would be blessed with fertility and surely get pregnant. It is her breaking her oath to God that causes the result as well, not the water. Likewise this is not specifically an ordeal for only pregnant women, whereas rule…

The issue I have with this is that it only focuses on power as who has wealth. Even when women largely had unpaid domestic roles they still had plenty of power in society, it was just a different power.

Uhhh you really need to fact check yourself.

Up to 35 is still considered to be a normal pregnancy age group, and fertility is only down about 10% by age 39 of where it would've been in a woman's early 20s.

It depends. A child in proper seat/restraints is actually fairly safe. That's why we have car seats, booster seats, and seat belt adjustors. If those aren't used or are used improperly then yes, it's way more dangerous for children. So I suppose you could make the argument that particularly petite women probably should be using adjustors to help their survival chances... just like I bought adjustors for when I was heavily pregnant to make sure everything fit properly and was the safest option.

The thing is this kind of stuff targets young girls who aren't usually old enough to have a fully developed brain, and even more often had some kind of problems growing up (single mother household's, sexual abuse, etc.) It's basically the inverse of the stuff that boys get into from similar backgrounds (like crime, gangs, etc).

In fairness even with a fantastic spouse, being a mom can be tiring (so is being a dad though, and a lot of these women don't acknowledge anything the father does as being "good enough", which isn't necessarily his fault.) I'd never trade it for anything, but man those clingy "I only want mommy" phases do take a lot of mental energy out of me.

I think we live in a sexist society geared unfairly towards women. But the structure is patriarchal because of what the actual definitions are. I just think it's more correct to say it's gynocentric rather than matriarchal since most do not carry their lineage and surnames via women. So we live in a patriarchal society by definition (assuming we're not giving credit to the made up feminist definition), but society is also gynocentric because there's far more to society than who takes surnames an…

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm just saying it's simply a way to order society. There's nothing wrong with it. My example of using the west was just to point out it really doesn't matter if a country is "enlightened" or more equal, we still use the system to create order and track generations. "The patriarchy" is what the feminists made up and complain about, whereas patriarchy itself is simply just the system of family organization that is used by most people.

"The patriarchy" doesn't exist. But there are still many patriarchal societies... Even most of the West still carries patriarchal tradition such as women taking their husband's name or children being given their father's surname rather than their mother's. So there's not really inherently any issue or problem with patriarchy by its actual base definition, society has to have some level of basic family structure and relationship tracking... the problem is that people just made up an entirely diff…

In a way, feminism wouldn't have gotten anywhere without men. Women couldn't vote or participate equally in the workforce or in education initially afterall... Men voted for women to have that power. It's also worth noting that feminism actually struggled to gain widespread female support until after they started pushing women into universities and passed a lot of laws that incentivized single motherhood in the 70s. That's not to say men are to blame... but it's really not actually a gendered is…

I think feminism actually is a social programming for women to reject/ignore their empathetic traits tbh. I agree that men care about women more than the other way around in general. But that's because women are supposed to expend most of their emotional energy towards infants and children. Biologically men care for women, and that frees up women to care for the offspring. Feminism belittles and undermines motherhood though... unless it's motherhood in the least ideal circumstances (single mothe…

You cannot have a system that's good for women without caring about the good of men. The concept of a war between the genders is no good for anyone, we are created to be two halves of society that rely on each other. Feminism is more insidious in how it harms women than how it harms men. It leads women to think the only way forward is to abandon our femininity, to lose out on what actually fulfills us, that if we think for ourselves it's proof that were stupid/controlled, and to disregard our ac…

Yes, which is why they're being more active here.

The source you posted does state that nearly 50% of first marriages in the US do end in divorce(lasting an average of 8 years), and also states that women are the majority who seek divorce. (Consecutive marriages have an even higher divorce rate as well.) So he's not actually wrong, and I don't think he's trying to be disingenuous when he brings up those numbers.

being INCREDIBLY judgy and saying you are right and they are wrong....kind of childish Men's RP is a dating strategy for how to get sex without getting screwed over by the legal and social systems in place. It is not about getting married. This isn't a moral argument or judgment, it's simply the core goal of the male RP. Things like self-improvement are methods to reach that goal, but they can also positively help in reaching pretty much all other goals. That doesn't make men's RP wrong or lesse…

Yeah, hence why my first point on why this is stupid advice is pretty much only a male issue - divorce rape. And yet all the new RP content creators seem to acknowledge it exists, then tell men this kind of stupid stuff. And the worst part is they legitimately try to convince women they're right about it too... (and invite on only young, usually pretty dumb/oblivious girls to "debate" it with so they can be certain they'll never actually have to deal with any valid counterpoints).

I wear makeup when I want to look nice. My husband doesn't care much either way, if anything it's mostly to keep up with other women. Although I understand that it's creation had to do with attracting mates, now if anything it's more of the social pressure from other women. Like has any straight guy ever cared if a woman wears the same dress to multiple formal occasions? I'd guess no, but you'd still never catch most women willing to do that.

If you follow Dr. Peterson then you'll be familiar with the fact that women are more agreeable on average right? A trait that serves us much better socially, and in care giving type activities, than in business. To an extent women are more nurturing on average, just like men are more aggressive on average. Feminism tend to treat both of these as bad things, but they're neither necessarily bad or good, they're just a product of the ideal "roles" for survival. Men cannot breastfeed or give birth s…

Well fashion is dominated by gay men. I could only find the pdf, but it was a 2017 study. I think he says women are more likely to pursue the arts, but that doesn't mean most (a majority) women pursue it. We do statistically go for lesser paid job though, that's very true. But the most highly female dominated industries are predominantly "caregiving" types of work. Ever been to a hospital for instance? How many nurses did you see who were female vs male?

I think for the set a wedding date really depends on your situation, largely based on if you want kids and where your biological clock is at. If you're 35+ you might have to be a bit more upfront to avoid losing time on men who are in no rush... afterall we do not have the same luxury of time.

I think the thing is that I wasn't looking for a "normal guy" or "most guys". I was looking for someone special... expecting them to have a little self control and take care of their own needs for a few months isn't exactly a high bar. The whole point is that you have to show them what you offer that's exceptional beyond just the bedroom, and them to display that they value you beyond just a person to have sex with.

The dumbest thing about this is that no one shops at VS because they want to feel represented... if I'm spending $60 on a single, lace bra that's not even comfortable it's only for one reason... to look sexy.

That's very true. I think it can be a normal, positive, healthy human interaction. If you're approaching it as "I'm excited about this let me share with you!" It's a lot different from "I'm feeling insecure please spend 20 minutes reassuring me and building me up while I put myself down".

I don't even understand what they're saying? Of course motherhood is a care giving role... so is fatherhood... children require additional care. That's not because of the "patriarchy".

I agree with this. I will not get any of my boys circumsized because it's wrong.

This is accurate. Almost all rapists are closely related to the victims as either family members or friends. A majority of rapes actually occur where the rapist has been invited in by the unsuspecting victim. The "rapist in the dark alley" trope is actually incredibly rare and unlikely.

rape is simply a useful tool The easiest way to prove this is to look at the self-reported survey questions that they ask, and then conflate with rape and sexual assault in their "findings" to make it sound much, much worse that reality. For example the 1 in 5 or 1 in 4 women are sexually assaulted in college number is based on a self-reported survey, and included questions like "Have you ever felt uncomfortable with attention that you received?", if someone answered "Yes" then it was counted as…

That post didn't pop up for me... hence I didn't engage with it. I don't check every post on every sub that I subscribe to (who has time for that?!). As for the post linked above, I'm against child support in all situations. If the parents want to privately work out a child support option that's fine, but it shouldn't be part of the legal system. Same thing for alimony.

I agree. But if you're keeping it in your mind, then no one should ever know besides the other people in the fetish community. The fact that people have enough experience to state they don't like being fetishized is purely because there are just enough people who cross the boundary out there that it's created complaints. I don't think that reflects on the fetish communities though, just those individuals.

So I think it really depends. If you don't mind engaging in the fetish, and the fetishist treats you like a human beyond just a source to wank off to, yeah that's fine. But I do think there are fetishists (in both genders) that kind of remove the fact that the subject of their fantasy is still another human being, likewise you shouldn't involve someone who is blatantly opposed to being used that way. Ex: I had pregnancy fetishists DM very explicit sexual messages just for posting a question in r…

Just so you know almost all of the studies are done on animals, not humans, or aren't actually very conclusive about anything. Again that's not to say IF isn't a great tool that work for some people. I absolutely think it does help some people. My point is that it isn't a miracle solution to weight loss that will be something for everyone, and the mechanisms by which it does work can be applied to many other methods so long as there is a consistent calorie deficit. Pretty much any time that some…

That's not necessarily true. IF isn't actually that well researched, and recent studies actually suggest it may actually increase muscle loss: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/article-abstract/2771095?guestAccessKey=444bbcb2-7e13-4dc6-998f-5de5e27aa19e&utm_source=For_The_Media&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=ftm_links&utm_content=tfl&utm_term=092820 But again, this is one study and like I said IF isn't that well researched at this point.

I'm not saying it doesn't work, but it works by the same mechanism that any diet works (at least the weight loss aspect, not talking about any of the other benefits) which is calorie expenditure. It's also something that I think is a person to person preference. Some people are just not comfortable or compatible with stuff like OMAD. There are many different ways to control calorie intake and it's perfectly fine for people to like different things.

Thank you. I also felt uncomfortable seeing such blatant misinformation. While things like IF work for some people (and that's great if it's a tool they like) it's still entirely down to calorie control. Likewise a lot of studies show calories are equal regardless of their source. The reason why nutrient dense foods are considered "diet foods" is only because things like fruits and vegetables are much more bulky and satisfying than say an equal amount of calories from cake. 300 cal of cake is a …

Hate to disagree with you but at the end of the day it is just calories in vs calories out. Calories are a unit of energy, when you have more than the baseline your body needs they get stored as fat for later use. Yes the body has many ways of handling and processing calories, but ultimately if you eat too many calories for your needs you get fat. Grandma back in the day didn't need to count calories because times were different. Portion sizes were smaller(fewer calories) and life was more activ…

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be financially independent.

It can also be entirely psychosomatic with no physical causes. ED is such a tough thing because not only is sexual performance something men tend to use as one aspect of self-worth, but it can be caused or driven by a bunch of things.

Being more upset because some people are assholes has nothing at all to do with being female or male. Men are just as likely to get bullied, and are more likely to be physically assaulted... I would say that's a bit more severe than someone said a "mean word" to you.

I actually think Buffy is a good example of a strong female character, but this is mostly because we get to actually watch her grow up, make tough decisions, and grow into an actual person.

RPW is not about landing yourself a RP guy. This is a common misconception. RP theory for men is basically "how not to commit while getting you sexual desires met", vs RPW which is about locking down and maintaining commitment with a good partner. They're pretty much opposites. RPW is more about finding a partner who has some RP qualities, like leadership, but who doesn't subscribe to the RP lifestyle.

This is a great suggestion. I always try to remind people that therapists are not a "one size fits all", as frustrating as it can be you may have to "shop around" to find one that you feel is helpful. That said you do not necessarily want a therapist who is just a cheerleader, good therapy will push you emotionally at times and can sometimes be difficult. Ideally you want a therapist who connects well with you so when it's time to hear and handle some of the tougher parts of therapy you're able …

I definitely think it can be an impact, but I think promiscuity is more a symptom of deeper issues (like the issues you allude to) which if left unresolved affect pair bonding.

Simply put if you are truly following RPW strategies and theories you will have to face your issues, take responsibility, and attempt…

My husband doesn't like confronting his stress full stop. He is of the mindset that it's better to just bear with it, keep his head on his objective, and work through it.

Making a little bit of extra money at events, doing something that one is passionate about is completely reasonable so long as it's balanced with everything else. Maybe try suggesting that he focus more on events rather than night clubs (quinceneras, anniversaries, birthday parties, weddings, etc). That would give him the flexibility to schedule out when and how long he wants to work in advance, and for the most part involve more tame atmospheres than a night club.

It seems unfair to me to expect men to be strong and confident when feminized society is doing its very best to tear them down.

In such a serious situation I think that's the minimum that you should do, ultimately I still cannot advise staying with a partner who has volatile anger issues which escalate into violent outbursts. It's also concerning that you would have to ask him to seek help after this. If this wasn't a wake-up call for him that he has issues, then he's still in denial about needing help. Therapy cannot change him until he comes to terms with the fact that he needs to change.

It's always hard because victims often don't recognize the real danger until they feel trapped.

The real "Wall" is different for everyone, it's certainly not like the moment you turn 30 it sets in.

There is nothing wrong with dating for marriage even as young as you are now, heck it might even help you filter out men who do not hold the same values or w…

The base word "men" is the Greek word for "month". Pause is pretty self-explanatory in English, menstruation is from menstrual or just meaning "monthly". Mental comes from the Latin base of "mens" which means mind. Literally just like most words in English, they're derived from other languages and have nothing to do with modern sex/gender terms.

The problem is that social justice is not necessarily justice by default. When you start making "justice" for some groups or trying to right perceived wrongs or inequalities then by definition you are actually not operating in a fair and just manner. Justice and fairness is just giving everyone access to the tools to be successful, when you start trying to manipulate the outcomes of personal choice then you're inherently biased for or against certain groups (which is what social justice is other…

It might for some people. The big thing is you being responsible and aware of it.

There are still health risks associated with being obese because of excess muscle mass, although different.

This isn't accurate at all. The human body simply is not designed to sustain being obese or overweight for large periods of time.

I mean forgive her in a inner sense if that's something that helps you move past emotionally. The opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference.

You can forgive her if that helps you move past it... and you don't even need to tell her you forgive her. Forgiveness is not the same as forgetting or opening the door back up though. It can just be a way to emotionally let go and cool off that can be very cathartic though. Edit to add: I may not have been clear, if you choose to forgive her you can. But absolutely don't let her back into your life, remember that you broke up for a reason.

Not to sound dismissive, but you do get used to it as well. Any adjustment is hard, when you're used to seeing or speaking to your SO far more regularly, or being far more busy, there's always going to be an adjustment period. It's perfectly natural to feel more lonely when you're adjusting and it's still a new routine, but it gets a lot easier once you're more used to it. My husband works nights so even though he's actually home the entire time I'm at home(because I also work from home) it's no…

I don't think there's anything wrong with asking for a little independence and trust. Just let him know that while you're always open to constructive criticism, you'd appreciate if he brought up any critiques he had when you weren't in the middle of doing something. This will serve a couple purposes, firstly it'll let him have time to consider his words more carefully (and maybe he does have a good point but currently he's not articulating it well) and secondly it'll let you finish the task with…

My husband and I were introduced online through a mutual friend who invited both of us to play a video game together. We hit it off during the initial games, and I pushed to keep playing together after our mutual friend left for the night, and I would message my husband whenever I got online (he was always on first).

Yes and no. Obviously the fertility thing won't matter as much, however fertility is strongly linked with attractiveness. Men even rate women more attractive when they're ovulating versus other stages in the cycle according to some of the studies I've seen.

I think there's a level of joint responsibility that cannot be avoided. Which is why it should be determined before the sex not after. You sign a pre-nup before marriage, not after for a reason.

I think it will, but I think men that hold monogamy as a lower value, like consensual non-monogamy, are less likely to find this a deal breaker as they might feel more comfortable bringing this up and establishing a relationship where monogamy is not expected/ therefore "cheating" is not an issue.

I don't disagree. But I'm saying that if you have a record of not honoring monogamy you're only going to attract partners who also don't honor monogamy... it's far easier to transition to a relationship with consensual non-monogamy than to convince a man who believes in monogamy that you're worth dating.
/r/RedPillWomen03/11/20 07:24 PM

But the question is that what kind of men can/will someone who has low value in monogamy attract... regardless of consent, if this woman is open with future potential partners about her past choices then I think she's mostly going to appeal to men who do not value monogamy either, which includes people interested in consensual non-monogamy. They may even see her willingness to ignore traditional relationship boundaries as a good thing because they themselves don't want those boundaries.

I mean there are swingers and other "polyamorous" lifestyles that do have relationships, they just don't consider sleeping around to be a deal breaker... Not for me at all, but no shame if that's what others want to do.

I think it's a personal thing. I think it will definitely be a turn off for a lot of men, but that some men won't care. The issue is, which of those groups of men do you align with? The first group is definitely going to have stricter morals, but that also means they will have higher standards for their own behavior (or should). Personally I would only be interested in men from this group, I want someone with strong morals and standards with whom I can raise children with and feel confident that…

If you don't believe men can be monogamous why does it upset you? Why do you hope for something that you think is impossible? Do you also wish for a pet unicorn? No, you don't. Just like I don't think you honestly believe men can't be faithful. And yes, men can absolutely be monogamous. They're not slaves to their sex drive, just like women aren't. It just so happens that this man is not interested in monogamy... for me this would be a deal breaker, regardless of his SMV. I am not interested in …

I think part of it is decision-making. Someone who has a lot of sexual partners is putting themselves at a much higher risk for things like diseases, as opposed to someone who doesn't have many sexual partners. I don't personally think it reflects all that well on someone to put their health at risk for most likely drunk, bad hookup sex... and let's be completely honest most one night stands really are subpar sexual experiences.

If so, you should reflect on ways to improve your behavior as well. Even for not the "right guy" it never h…

I don't think having a lower pitched voice is anything to be too worried about. I think your mannerisms and how you speak matter more.

I agree with private settlement when possible 100%(also since I don't believe marriage is a business the government should be involved in). But just within the current system, if the child is a result of the marriage, then there needs to be some kind of equitable split in regards to the child's welfare. I do not think there should be child support in all cases, but unfortunately I don't think it can be eliminated entirely until the government gets out of marriage entirely.

Men are much more problem-solving oriented, less feelings oriented. There is much more expectation for them to be able to brush things off and not dwell on feelings, so keep in mind this is probably not something he has really any experience with. While you might feel like he is scoffing with the "what do you expect me to tell them" question, make sure to recognize that men are very frustrated by problems that do not have clear cut solutions. He does not like seeing you upset, while simultaneous…

It is fine to assert yourself. You don't have to be rude about it, but when they do things you dislike you can say something like "I don't appreciate x, would you please stop?" No one is a mind reader, if you don't tell them calmly and politely that you dislike something they have no way of knowing. If they continue to be disrespectful afterwards, then you might want to tell your SO(again be calm and simple about it). If marriage is on the table, then he should not be letting his friends walk ov…

Also I've always felt that leaping right to a dinner date is inconsiderate for whomever is paying. That can be a lot of money for something you might know isn't going to work out after 5 minutes. I personally would feel uncomfortable having someone spend $50-60 for the first time we're even meeting. Now obviously you can offer to split the bill, which resolves that partially, but it's still more out of pocket per person than a drink or a coffee might be.

The thing I don't understand is it doesn't have the desired effect of making anyone who didn't already agree with you see you positively or want to support you. Not only do the people who do this know that it doesn't strengthen their cause, they relish in the fact that they are "fundamentally pure" of the imagined sins of those they attack. Yet, after excluding everyone else abd giving them good cause to vote against them, they still wonder why they lose elections and don't get their way.

I guess it depends. I don't see my husband on the job, so if I was only basing my assumptions off how he behaves at home(a goofy, game loving lump who never talks about work) I would think he wasn't very motivated. His boss lives down the street, so I ended up finding out that he's 100% different at work than what I see at home. Even still he's not hugely career motivated, he does his best at work, but he has many other things that are simply more important to him than being a career man.

Firstly, if they can't be bothered to respond to you in a timely manner then you really need to weigh out the reasons.

Exclusive just means that there is a mutual agreement that the two of you are now in a relationship, not just "seeing where this goes". There's no exclusivity(ie established relationship) expected generally on the first couple dates when you're still testing the waters. It leaves the door open for either of you to decline further dates easily and without fuss. It doesn't mean that either of you necessarily is out on the town with a different person every night prior to becoming exclusive.

You don't have to specifically avoid it, but it might feel a bit weird if you force topics to come up rather than having a natural conversation.

He should be open to the possibility of committing from the first date. That doesn't mean that the date leads anywhere or that he's expected to commit right away.

It means that your relationship with them wasn't building enough respect to overlook little things. No one is perfect, but if you find someone's flaws are driving you nuts and you can't look past them, then it really begs the question how much do you even like them in the first place?

I'm sorry but excuse me? You're making a lot of assumptions about my marriage that are honestly pretty insulting. I'm sorry that your experience is so poor that you assume that men are always going to cheat on you and basically steal your joint savings unless they "spoil" you(and what does that even mean?). Also just because he likes that I'm frugal doesn't have anything to do with him caring for me or my "needs" not being met... as an example spending $60 at a nail salon to get something I coul…

I certainly haven't noticed any damage, and before COVID I was wearing them to work every day. Since they stick to the liner they don't get stuck to your actual lashes. They don't move around either, but you can lightly tug and they'll come right off(which is nice if you feel the need to reposition them).

I'd be upset if he started spending a lot of money on superficial things as well.

I actually like my glamnetic ones the best, I bought a pack when they were on sale and they're soft and light. That said, don't bother with their non-liquid liner because the gel liner just isn't very good. I also suggest applying the magnetic liner over your normal liner(helps to use less of it) and make sure you give it like 2 min to dry before applying the lashes, for whatever reason every magnetic liner I've tried takes a long time to dry down.

Also blonde can be really damaging especially if you have dark hair naturally. No matter what color it is, no one is going to like frizzy, dry, and lots of breakage. Nothing wrong in my opinion with accentuating your color, or changing it if that's your personal preference. But I don't think you should dye it just because you think it might attract more men, if it's not something you want to do.

I disagree on the blond hair. Long, healthy, well-styled hair matters much more than color. Healthy muscle tone, good makeup techniques, dressing better are all going to be simple things that boost how you look. There's also a matter of self-esteem, if you clearly look like you're uncomfortable or have low self-esteem, people are going to subconsciously pick up on it and avoid you over someone who is confident.

For me personally? That if someone sexually assaults you, the police and authorities won't believe you and will judge you(so you basically shouldn't bother).

I would only say it's a gendered issue because society has instilled in men a false sense of security, which is probably why men are far more likely to be victims of crimes like mugging and armed robbery. Yet women are appropriately taught to be cautious of situations like this(and then taught by the feminist narrative that using good judgment, that men should also be taught, is just a sign of sexism).

Sure, but still better off being polite than skipping it just because it's silly. Especially involving in-laws, if for no other reason to try to reduce friction. Based of what happened, if her father hadn't been difficult at this step it sound like he still would've dragged his feet and been difficult in regards to other things. Ultimately, she wanted advice about how to deal with her father, questioning her partner's attempt to be polite really isn't helpful at this point.

It's certainly idolized by things that most black people claim is "black culture", such as rap and hip-hop music, and fashion.

Exactly. I'm not saying it would never work, but it also carries the risk of going from bad to life threatening depending on the criminal involved. Since you can't possibly know their reaction, and you have to assume that they're already willing to hurt you based on the situation it's within reason that they're also willing to kill you.

No, think about the distance at which you can use it. By that point, as a woman, you are just risking enraging your assailant rather than realistically being able to flee. With a firearm, you equalize yourself as a threat and can prevent them from coming near you through deterrence, often without having to use the firearm at all. Someone may weight the risk of pepper spray and charge you, but they're much less likely to do so if you have a gun. And in the event they still choose to come at you, …

Which yes, means that I would not want my daughter to be hyper-sexual on instagram or my son to be rude towards women... But once they are adults, those are choices they get to make for themselves. It's no longer my place to monitor and control their behavior, it's now their turn to learn the real world consequences for themselves. My judgment of their behavior isn't going to be as …

Here's my issue with your argument, it's that you're trying to sum up other women's actions to the influence of society and in doing so you remove and diminish their responsibility and personal agency, as if they are not fully in control of themselves. Your basis for your criticism is not that these women have expressed discontent, but that you personally disprove such behaviors. If you want to discuss the deeper issues with social media then focus on that, you can do that without essentially sh…

If you want to point out logical fallacies or logical inconsistencies with hyper-sexual culture, be my guest. That would be exactly in line with what I do on fatlogic. However, that's not what you're doing. You are trying to take a moral high-ground and judge people for making their own decisions that ultimately have nothing to do with you, other than the fact that you disagree with those actions and think that they should be eradicated from society. It wasn't like the point of this post was tha…

I completely agree that a lack of proper male role models has created undesirable effects in behavior, particularly in young men. That said, what do you define as "unacceptable behaviors"? If everyone participating is a consenting adult, which is true for the most part, why is it our job to step in as the culture police and act puritanical about it? I will always advocate standing up for yourself when you have been personally wronged or do not like something, but given the response to my comment…

Prostitution is called the world's oldest profession for a reason. Plenty of evidence exists that show humans have always been highly sexual, it actually wasn't until the Victorian era when modesty became more commonplace. Sure, the methods have changed, but once again no one is a slave to society. It's absurd to imply that people don't have the free will or intelligence to make their own decisions. why do these strangers deserve to behold that side of ourselves?

I’ve seen smart, creative, lively women in my life reduce themselves down to nothing but bikini photos of their asses on Instagram because they know it’ll get the most attention. ​ That's their choice though isn't it? If they want to get attention and use their sexuality to do so, no one is forcing them that's entirely their decision. While that's not something I would do, I don't understand why the implication is that smart or creative or lively women can't or shouldn't desire sexual attention.…

Okay... this is a good article about not judging others. But has absolutely nothing to do with happiness, satisfaction, and divorce rates and their correlations to multiple sexual partners.

You don't have to believe it or find any value in the numbers, and that's perfectly fine. Doesn't mean the numbers don't exist, and that it might be something with negative effects.

I'm just stating the studies. They could be wrong, but I can understand why they show a correlation between high numbers of sexual partners decreases satisfaction and happiness. Having more partners is also linked to higher rates of divorce, which does suggest there's a correlation.

Yes, but human evolution takes longer than that to change. Which is the theory behind the declining mental health and happiness reported by women, especially among those with high numbers of sexual partners. I'm not saying there aren't women who are 100% fine with it, but those people are the outliers. The majority of women are less happy when they have lot of sexual partners, whereas there is no impact in happiness for men. Also you don't have to have a lot of partners to have a lot of sex, you…

I'm just talking about the research that shows declining happiness in women who have a lot of sexual partners.

It makes sense that most women are less fulfilled with lots of sexual partners versus very committed partners. I'm not condoning men who do what you said.

I'm not sure I follow? When we're talking about biology you have to remember that for the vast majority of human evolution and history birth control was not available, so there was no advantage for a woman to be promiscuous, meanwhile there is no real issue for men being promiscuous as they're not going to get pregnant and have a child that physically depends on them for years. It's not crazy to see how that would have affected men and women to have different sexual needs.

Nope. Men are biologically inclined to "spread their seed" as much as possible, while it's always been more advantageous for women to get commitment and a dedicated partner rather than lots of partners.

Studies show that particularly women who have had multiple sexual partners have a harder time feeling satisfied and happy in relationships. I wish I had a link to the study, but it did show reduced positive outcomes for women(the higher the "body count" the worse off the outcome in pair bonding usually.)

I will always advocate that this is a purely situational decision.

Ditch them, they're clearly cretins for making those kinds of remarks. If you have the body type you claim you do, then you're plenty high SMV for most men.

I mean if you're happy with your body, and you have a curvy shape, what exactly are you trying to achieve? A lot of the instagram models are edited and use plastic surgery to create that "thicc" look, but it's not necessarily attractive to a lot of men. If you really want to gain thicker legs then the best way to do that naturally is to start lifting and building muscle. It's a bit of a slow process, but that's really the only way to naturally sculpt your body.

It might not be uncommon, but TRP literally preaches being honest and upfront about your feelings, and not compromising on your positions(which is part of why it's not 100% compatible with RPW). Cheating is literally the opposite of that, I think the reason it's common in the married RP sub is a lot of men are using RP as an excuse to behave in certain ways in their marriages they started when they were BP. Just because they're doing it doesn't actually mean it's red pilled though.

If they're big things then no, don't stick around. General rule of thumb is that people change very little just because other people want them to change. So if there's a major red flag, then just leave because that person has no plans to change themselves. If it's something smaller, then sure why not bring it up if you like the person? Kinda stupid to walk away without saying anything just because someone has an annoying habit/behaviour if you enjoy every other aspect of the time you spend toget…

Shouldn't this depend on how worth it the girl is to you? A girl you really enjoy being with who has a couple things that bother you is probably worth talking to, whereas a plate or a girl that you don't particularly care about is probably better off just walking away from.

Tightness has to do with her muscle tension, not how "stretched" her vagina is. Yes, it's designed to stretch but it will return to it's normal size. It doesn't lose elasticity, although it may feel that way if her pelvic floor muscles are weak, which can happen after things like childbirth, hence the myth that the vagina can get stretched out. But like all muscles it can be improved.

I was more into American Girl Dolls as a young girl, because it was a special hobby with my grandmother and my cousin. Other than reading all the books and playing together, my grandmother helped teach me how to sew clothes for them, braid and style their hair, and care for them. Not quite as lively as Barbie, but it was very much a "quieter" femininity. And of course all of the books told stories of perseverance, kindness, and self-work... I still have all of them today.

I think it's a personal, and sometimes situational, thing. For me, I wanted two things before I would go all the way. First, I must receive unsolicited verbal commitment(usually the big L word). I do not tell men this, it's not a bargaining chip that can be played for convenience. Secondly, it had to be at least 1 month since we entered an exclusive relationship. There would be no sex of any kind with me until both conditions were met. That doesn't mean that's going to work for everyone. Just th…

It depends on your age and goals to be honest.

It's just a particular scent that penises have. I really couldn't describe it. For vaginal intercourse you won't notice at all, you may actually even like the smell.

This is very true. I remember when I first started having sex the smell men have down there really put me off. I got over it by suggesting shower sex, and now I'm comfortable in other settings. That said I still have some rules like "never push my head towards your penis" or that I don't want him to finish in my mouth. I know that's a deal breaker for some, and I'm okay with that.

Agreed. I think women subconsciously want strong men, but are very mislead by what they've been taught and have a lot of inner-conflict about what they actually like vs what they think they should like.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned "wife goggles". There's actual evidence that many men don't notice a decline in their mate's SMV once they've made a mating-bond(ie marriage + children). Biologically it makes sense, women will hit the wall and if they have children it's unrealistic that they'll return to looking exactly the way they were before children yet our species generally has relied on a co-parenting relationship between the man and woman for child-rearing.

I'm sure if your Father/Pastor/Preacher/Rabbi/etc hear you're interested they'd be more than happy to guide y'all or find someone they know who does pre-marital counselling. In our faith you can't get married without it(at least not in the church or with a member of their clergy). Our church also offers groups for newlyweds, men's, and women's groups, and shockingly(/s) it's all pretty much RP(although the men's groups do advocate marriage and how to appropriately honor your wife.)

I think it is different coming from a wife. Younger guys aren't ready to settle down, settled men have already made the commitment and really enjoy having their choice in settling affirmed from what I've seen.

The best advice on "what women want" my husband learned was honestly through pre-marital counselling at our church. It was one of the best things we did for our relationship, and I strongly advise engaged couples to look into it(if you're not religious but good at taking the message despite the faith based discussion it's still worth it). Our Father talked a lot about the different ways in which men and women receive and understand love, how men and women communicate, and of course the obligatio…

And you don't even have to be the most amazing household goddess... those two older coworkers have been brought sandwiches for lunch for the past 30 years and are still happy that their wives make them everyday.

Yeah, one of my coworkers is currently expecting his first child. And apparently his wife is obsessed with the idea of being a SAHM... but she only just finished her doctorate in Psych and hasn't even made her first student loan payment. He's understandably upset by this because the whole point in getting that level of education was to help her get a better job, not to stay home. I feel for her, but she made that bed and it's completely unfair to expect him to take over that debt...

I mostly agree, although I do think it depends how often she travels to him vs him to her. If he's expecting her to travel over to his house significantly more often than he will travel to hers then he should at least be considerate enough to take the inequity of cost for the situation,unless of course when she visits him the expectation is that he's going to take her on a date and pay for everything. At a certain point it's ideal to make sure that one party isn't paying for a large majority of …

Have you ever taken him to talk with your OBGYN? They might be able to get through to him that IVF really isn't a "walk in the park", and exactly how unnecessarily difficult and dangerous it would be to choose over natural conception.

If restricting to 1200kcal is too difficult for you just look up the calories you need at your activity level for your desire weight. Then just eat that amount, the progress might be a bit slower, but it's more manageable for a lot of people In the end you'll get to your goal and maintain!

I offered a prenup to my husband, I don't feel strongly about it, he rejected it despite being very aware of the risks. But I also think that we entered into marriage with more humble and realistic expectations than the average person. Marriage is a covenant with each other and God, and it primarily serves to create stability for having children. When we stood at the altar we put our individual interests aside for the wellbeing of the family and our union, life isn't always easy, and divorce is …

I cook all the time. Although occasionally things don't come out as intended, it definitely is something my husband is proud of. His coworkers are apparently pretty jealous that he gets lunches packed everyday, which I do think is sad since it doesn't take much time.

I agree, I'm planning on being a SAHM anyways, but one of my biggest driving factors is that I cannot in good faith send children into such a bad environment. Unless something changes, we will probably home school until middle or high school.

At your current age I don't think it's unreasonable for you to bring it up. You said yourself you both want children, neither of you can wait indefinitely. However how long ago was he actively ring shopping? Is it possible that he might have proposal plans you're unaware of(any trips or special dates planned)? I'd give him 6 months from when you suspect he bought a ring to bring it up. And don't feel put off if he might be having jitters, he may be nervous for different reasons than you think, m…

There are a lot of ways to be feminine, but I think one of the best ways to think about feminine energy is that it is harmonious with masculine energy. While in many mythologies the sun is portrayed as masculine, the moon is almost always the feminine, and it's a brilliant metaphor for how men and women are two halves of the whole. Feminine energy draws from the masculine, reflecting it just as the moon reflects light from the sun. Yet the moon is not lesser in beauty or purpose than the sun. Ta…

Where and in what context do you usually meet men? From my experience I feel like this made a big difference in what men's expectations were towards me. Men that I met through mutual friends or doing an activity like badminton, ballroom dance classes, fencing, cooking classes, etc. I had better success forming ltr's with. Men I met out on the town, at bars or clubs, had one thing on their mind and might put some effort in, but it was just to meet their initial goal. My husband and I actually met…

In university my final project was a research dissertation with topic of my choosing, at the time I was a feminist so I chose to write about the effects of culture and victim blaming on the low trial rate of rape cases.

I concur with /u/Limeycat. There are lots of steps that can be made to change careers or overcome poor past decisions(like an English degree versus a Computer Science degree). But if you're 33 and haven't forged onto any of those pathways that signals to me that you aren't serious about it. My husband floundered a bit when we first got together, but he was 23 and realizing that he hated his college major and college in general wasn't for him(he was also paying for his degree completely out of po…

What does he need to do for technical training? My husband is currently an apprentice electrician, training with his local IBEW. The only qualification they require is high school or GED, plus you have to pass an Algebra exam and interview. He should be able to get into some program with a little studying.

So in my case cohabiting prior to marriage worked just fine BUT here's the difference: engagement and marriage timeline was on the table already, we also joined up our finances(which was honestly the biggest commitment to the relationship we could possibly have done), and it was simply far more frugal to share joint expenses. We were engaged 2 years later just like previously agreed upon, and married about a year later(I didn't want to be stressed with a short engagement for planning purposes) b…

My husband and I were living together with combined finances by 2 months of meeting each other in person. We had already determined that we would get married (though waited on the engagement for 2 years to make our parents feel more comfortable). HOWEVER, we spoke online for months before meeting, we met via a friend and played online games together. We talked for hours every night. Five minutes into our first date I already knew he was the man I was going to marry. You can vet quickly, and when…

My husband had an open conversation with me about his proposal timeline(date 2 years then engagement), I agreed to this since his reasoning was to make sure his family did not feel like he was rushing into something and cause issues(love my in-laws but they're very cautious). He knew I was going to leave if he waited any longer than that though. Make sure you stick to your guns unless he has a better reason for delaying, then you'll have to weigh what's more important.

Well men have worked long, hard hours away from home for centuries, only boys used to be able to accompany their fathers on certain occasions as rites of becoming a man starting from a relatively young age. Likewise schools used to be commonly separated into boy's and girl's institutions, allowing boys to develop as boys.

Also don't forget all men are different and show their dominance differently. My husband is a man of few words, he often leads through body language rather than verbally. But I've also come to realize that for many things he just doesn't have strong feelings one way or another and is perfectly content to let me do what I like. Letting your man know that his word is final and practicing it will naturally encourage him to take charge, but it's also worth understanding that sometimes he's not overt…

I think you need to have a discussion with the father about parenting roles. Ultimately these are his children, and while its wonderful that you're quickly becoming more of a family together, you are still the newest element to the unit and ideally you want to make sure that you're preserving the power structure and only altering it in a way that is mutually agreed upon. Their father may want you to be the confidant and is comfortable with your decision making in regards to his children. He may …

And to add to your point if men didn't want kids then there wouldn't be horror stories about men being denied custody or visitation rights, and no one would know their fathers to begin with because no men would ever stick around. Men may not experience baby fever the way women do, but plenty of men want their own children.

Someone else said it and I agree with them 100% Marriage is not supposed to be about love, it's not supposed to be about happiness, it is fundamentally intended to be a structured unit which provides the best possible circumstances for having and raising children. This is probably why arranged marriages, and marriages between people who are devout in faith tend to last longer with fewer consequences. And the misconception that marriage is for any other purpose is ultimately why I think so many f…

Wearing makeup to workout is silly, it's not good for your skin and will only cause more issues. While I generally agree that you should do things that please your captain, I also think that a good captain will understand if you have good reasons for not doing certain things.

To a certain extent the family needs to act as a unit to maintain healthy function so yes. For example, good parents will work as a team even if their roles in that team differ, and they may have to be willing to sacrifice differences in opinion for the good of the unit. A group of friends shouldn't come with expectations of conformity, obviously don't be friends with people who you cannot stand to be around. But there shouldn't be the same level of expectation to put yourself aside for the grou…

I've never really cared for the notion of a "tribe", I just focus on keeping a couple great friends around whose company I enjoy despite all our differences. To me a "tribe" has to act as a unit in some sense, and I don't think that's necessarily healthy outside of the family unit.

That's why BPD is so hard. The sufferer self-sabotages but refuses to acknowledge any issue on their part, and the people around them are often collateral damage. It doesn't make them evil or bad that they aren't healthy. But it's also not your responsibility to go down with the ship. My mother used to often state that "I can't take care of others if I don't first take care of myself", and even though she is 100% right sadly she adamantly refuses to get the kind of care and help she actually nee…

My mother has BPD. As a child I didn't understand and I believed her unconditionally... until I started to grow old enough to realize that despite the fact that she certainly does love me, there's no room in her psyche for me. Our relationship is purely one-way, or it doesn't exist at all. We haven't spoken in 3 years, she refused to come to my wedding unless it was on her terms, she has called the police on my husband whom she has never met to punish me for my political views, she has burned ev…

In the words of Marilyn Monroe: "Men grow cold as girls grow old And we all lose our charms in the end... There may come a time when a hard boiled employer thinks you're awful nice ... He's your guy when stocks are high but beware when they start to descend Because that's when those louses go back to their spouses" Right now you're a toy, and he's buying you because it's fun.

I have friends who live that way, and I can respect them. But they don't also try to manipulate others into paying for their choices. Personally for me I would expect a man to be honest with me first and foremost. If he's happy with his job and lifestyle that's something to ask about, maybe it works well for you, but you should expect the truth and not a mooch.

A similar taste, but different flavor of this: He stays in a dead-end, low-responsibility position and makes no effort to improve. One of my best friends fell prey to this type of man.

During their relationship she later became aware that he had turned down multiple promotion opportunities in…

Confirmed. Women want to vent, but most likely already know what their next step is, hearing it from you will make them feel like you're being dismissive towards their problems. They want you to listen and "empathize" but they do not want your solutions unless they explicitly ask for your advice... if you pay attention when they're venting you'll probably realize that at no point in their complaints do they ever actually ask for your input or your ideas.

Does anyone have tips on surviving baby craziness? Long story short: Husband wants to wait until he can more comfortably provide in order to expand our family. I logically know he's right, and I want to be supportive while adhering to his decision, but it's like in the last year especially I've absolutely lost my ability to reason.

I've been struggling with the baby rabies for the past year, so I can definitely sympathize.
