| 403 | No, a woman from a 3rd world country will not put up with your stink! (An anecdote)I've lived with men who don't shower or brush their teeth (dad and brother) for days so I totally get it. She's not just leaving because he smells, what happens when they don't shower often is the body odor clings so the entire house starts to smell like them. Also, people with low standards of hygiene apply the same behavior to other aspects of life. They tend to also have low standards of behavior and how to treat others. Oh and their living area is usually as filthy. My dad would pee in bottl… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/11/21 11:38 AM |

Maybe I should try it too". Same guy, when I praised the chef and said the food was delicious and I could never have made something so delicious told me that I should be ashamed that a man can cook better than me.

| 44 | Do not let men of color triangulate you against women of colorI never really understood this. I'm a Nigerian immigrant and somehow fellow immigrant men will still find a fellow Nigerian immigrant woman to marry, even the ones that were born here still often marry Nigerian ladies born here (At least the ones I know).

| 26 | "Pumping the brakes" - social strategies for slowing the pace down in the dating stageExactly! I keep seeing this nonsense all over reddit and hope young ladies are not falling for it. Men in the real world who are interested in a relationship don't expect sex as a way for you to show your interest. You show your interest by being interested in being around them, going on dates, talking on the phone etc. Even the lvm who I dated all followed my lead when it comes to intimacy. It's the really degenerate men that think that women should use sex to show interest. Don't let them fool… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 30/10/21 12:48 AM |
| 87 | A golden comment from this subThe difference between hv fathers and lv ones is stark. Many of my Uncles are hvm and when I talk with them about their kids, they always tend to have "future plans" in the works, all the time. For example one is already planning the ways he will support his daughter through getting settled and thriving in high school, another one is already planning how to speed up his son's reading comprehension so he's ahead when he gets to the next grade. They talk a lot about their kids. My dad on the other… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/10/21 01:11 PM |

| 32 | In this thread: Hundreds of LVM and Pickmeishas squealing to the high heavens that an elite 23 y/o woman at a top tier university will NEVER find a high paying, traveling job post graduation, and should shut up and be a compliant wife and mother to boring old scrote who trapped her in her youth. 🥴🤮Hmm, this one is a bit odd. Unless you have a partner that is cool with this (God knows what he said before they got married) travelling internationally every two months doesn't make sense for many full time employees, regardless of how much they make and it doesn't sound like his job is fully remote right now. I think she is better off not being married, save her money and live her travelling dreams alone or find a partner that wants the same lifestyle. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/07/21 07:24 PM |
| 24 | Never, ever let men sexually manipulate youThis is really good advice. I've been saved from entering dangerous relationships thanks to my friendship with older women. One saved me by me plainly that one guy was too old for me, another saved me by telling me the other guy made money in dishonest ways, another saved me by telling me the guy approaching me had also approached her sister and all her sister's friends (at the same time).

| 137 | “What do you bring to the table” is actually a modern question. Don’t fall for it.The question shows extreme laziness and that the person doesn't know what they want on a personal level. What someone brings to the table is for you to quietly evaluate (both parties should be doing this) as you get to know them and compare it with your values and what you want in a partner. Then you decide if they are the kind of person you want.

Porn use can warp normal thinking. My dad was a heavy porn user, and he didn't even bother to hide it from his children. Then we became teenagers and we noticed him looking at our breasts instead of face when talking with us.

| 92 | I have gotten banned from two subreddits now for “victim blaming” for saying women have an obligation to themselves to carefully vet men and be on the lookout for signs they’d be abusive. What gives?This is an important conversation for women to have. I also wonder why some women will get extremely defensive when you even suggest that there are ways to spot potentially abusive men, almost as if women should just always have faith in men's goodness and be helpless when the it turns out that is not the case, like a vow a helplessness. I don't get it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/05/21 02:43 PM |

| 31 | Why did I have to fall in love with a horrible, selfish liar?Actually, I think you won, even though he did break up with you the fact is that you are no longer dating a man who cheats and lies. His behavior is not about you and he will keep doing stuff like this to other women. Where you lose is if you take him back if he comes back.

Even in past relationships I never thought of having sex just because I was in a relationship and frankly none of my relationships got to the point where full trust was established enough to have sex.
