It's the ultimate dead brain logic. They don't wanna be responsible for their children, but okay with being responsible for all other deadbeat men's children, oh, and all men are now responsible for all deadbeat men's children, but hey, we stuck it to the womenz. Right? Right????

You're the only one that gets it here. If you're getting vague "ex was crazy" lines I guarantee the asshole is the one spinning the narrative by airing dirty laundry knowing their ex isn't around to set the record straight.

Do I think that capitalism glorifies materialism and will take advantage of whatever they know people will recklessly spend on, especially women who are the majority of consumers? Yes, but the system is not the reason why women are single. They cannot force that anymore than women are willing to make that choice. Sometimes people just want to learn the hard way.

I'm a woman and Jennifer Connelly is like probably top of my list for most beautiful woman, and she got better with age. Men were and are still obsessed with Emma Watson because she's the whole package in beauty, class, and unobtainability.

Usually you need to have similar values. It's not the values that usually differ in couples but what they think are the solutions. Couples can be on opposing sides of politics while agreeing on the problems while living happily together.

I think it's important for you to understand what you're reading isn't about you, just experiences with bad men, so try not to take it to heart because you're hurting yourself for no good reason. Men aren't going to want to explain to other men the dumbass things they do trying to impress a woman, that's why these people want you to see, but you are not obligated to listen to them no matter what they say. Having said that relationships come from understanding one another. If you have the opportu…

You only need enough for her to feel she will have a stable future. What that amount is will be different from woman to woman. Me personally I wasn't born into a rich lifestyle but I've been around it due to my career and had plenty of well off men interested in me. It was just a massive turn off the way they spoke about people sometimes, the lives they live sounds utterly exhausting. If they aren't self made, superficial, and out of touch they were reliant on daddy's every beck and call while a…

Just express your good intentions like you did in your post. It shows you're single because you're mature and introspective. A good woman will appreciate the honesty and actually consider you if she is looking for a relationship too. In general having no experience is a red flag because nobody likes being the teacher to some of the stupidity they've had to deal with in their earlier relationships. For example having to expend the energy arguing over why your partner had the audacity to ask anoth…

Women want the loyalty and all that jazz but go about it in counterintuitive ways sometimes. Most insecure women want to be the center of their men's lives and at their worst will treat men like an accessory rather than a partner. In other words, like that mini golf girl you mentioned, those sorts of women objectify the people around them on the down low. They sound like minions in her life, not friends. The long lists are usually things women think they need but really are just reacting to supe…

It's not, they're surely miserable. I laugh at anyone who's stupid enough to not understand marriage that they'd put themselves through it 4 times and waste all that time, money, sanity when it was avoidable. It tells me exactly how lost they are because they're eating karma for breakfast every day. That's not really my point though. Lonely women are common, it doesn't take me 5 minutes to find evidence of it everywhere in casual spaces. Lots of women I personally know are older and lonely too.

Had a childhood friend who joined the football team and became a hottie. Women were jealous of my relationship with him and ostracized me. He felt embarrassed to be seen with me and did similarly but would be secretly talking to me when nobody was around. Sometime in college we reconnected and dated a little. A cultural phenomenon had made me the top of the pecking order in terms of looks. I didn't have to do much of anything. He told me it was always me and wanted to be with me for the long hau…

I only pointed out the show, that follows the matchmaker, not her clients who are real people as something anyone can look up without having to cite a bunch of TikTok videos of women crying after the fact for the world to see. In fact, I personally know A LOT of women who suffer this including my bestie who has 10 cats, fosters, and saves cats. I'm not some man saying this.

Oh they don't necessarily have a problem getting laid, it's the ones who wanted something more that cry because they can't find any commitment. Heck, I recently knew a 60+ woman who's a swinger with nipple rings, trashy beyond all belief crying about the men who still leave her in the dust after having affairs with them. There's an Indian matchmaking show on Netflix that very accurately documents why the women often needed matchmakers while being plenty attractive physically. I specifically reme…

No single person will have every answer nor will any leader be perfect because we are humans.

The idea is we try to give the best to kids and it's not always ideal, but we should absolutely be encouraging people to step up, to set an example to others, and to give back to the young whenever possible. That is the true traditional way. It's not impossible to find bonds with others where a person can, such as other family members, friends, but there are certain things that men need to understand that is very unique and personal to men and fathers are the primary example for this, including …

Sure, but everyone is an individual and every individual benefits from learning from others, most notably the parent who is biologically wired to care about their kids which allows the safest (by probability) environment for the child to make better individual judgements. It is not one or the other. Every person has the ability to think for themselves. Regardless of what a person thinks they may know, experience and age still counts for a lot and if you cannot learn from their advice you can alw…

Because it's easy to wind up in a situation they can't get out of that can cost them their lives, and some extreme ideologies can spread quickly with dire consequences. My brother is such a person who is always looking for a quick buck. He was no sheep but he was still an idiot. He made a lot of money and he lost a lot of money. He would be a disaster without my dad dragging him to task. My brother still wasted a decade of his life before pulling it together but I don't want to think about where…

I do agree to some extent because we haven't held kids responsible for their actions for decades and they've been marketed towards as suckers in the same amount of time. Instant gratification causes people to lose discipline because they have no attention spans. As for the post, I'd argue that 99% of the population plays some kind of video/mobile game and that does not in itself indicate something nefarious. Where did all the good men go...imo the military.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I've been seeing women talk about being anti sexual liberation as if they had no agency and walked into it with their eyes closed. The entire point was to allow women agency. Agency comes with responsibility and responsibility means accepting the possible negative consequences. Nobody was holding a gun to their head. Their actions are entirely their own. Hook up if you want, but have some self respect. Not every guy is going to accept a woman with ma…

Well the moral idea stems from the religious tenants that men are supposed to be virgins till marriage as well, whether or not it was dutifully followed is another matter. I've dated and known quite a few religious men who were adamant about the sins of sex before marriage so we never did the deed and they all went on to get married at young ages. If a guy's trying to tell you you need to be a virgin while he gets to sleep around, he's obviously a douche. If a guy doesn't want to bang and wants …

I'd be disappointed but most people I've met are like this, even people my own age after moving back. They'll pay stupid prices for conveniences and then complain the reckless spending leads to prices getting jacked up when many places had free delivery if they ever bothered to check.

I know it's sad right? I lived in the city for a while but grew up in a rural area with access to nice things but my parents never hired people to fix anything in the house. We refinished the entire house over the years and maintained the roof so it never needed replacing. My dad fixed every car himself, gardens, and makes wine.

Female sexual bargaining power is not going to disappear just because it's not a free buffet anymore. While there's plenty of what you mention I do agree with, you're also seeing the first set of phone using women complain on video after they hit the wall.

Lol the truth about rural places is people from elsewhere are too dependent on their lifestyle to live below their means. I was chatting with a dad who wanted to renovate a house to move his family into. Problem is he even admitted he has a standard of living he's reluctant to lower so he wound up putting his newly bought mcmansion up for sale because it was too expensive to renovate to his liking.

Sure, and my father says something I very much agree with. People think karma is a lie but the terrible things people do will come back to haunt them when death comes knocking. Ned stark is a fictional character. His life events are not real in the modern era. In spite of what many believe people like him are the normies who wind up married, happy, with kids.

By encouraging men to be good father figures to their kids instead of running away. As a woman I have a great relationship with my father and I'd say my success with men has largely been due to this. He's suffered a lot at the hands of my mother and society but he is steadfast in living a life of integrity. Ned Stark reminds me a lot of him. The sacrifices he's made for me were painful to endure as a kid powerless on the sidelines, and why I've always held so much respect for him. Ned stark is a…

I unfortunately concur as I've met too many spoiled brat princes because their families pamper the first born son. In western countries the carryover from women having no agency means they get less accountability, even more so because they're smaller physically and generally less likely to cause major physical damage. You know, the bias of allowing small dogs to have maladaptive behaviors due to their size.

I don't think they're gross or unattractive, but being the first partner means you're likely a project due to inexperience. Every guy I dated when I was in school was a virgin and it was pulling teeth dealing with them. Hubs laughed at how stupid the stories were because of course they're not telling other men their embarrassing moments.

I don't know what you're talking about, they're very trans/homophobic they've banned a lot of western thought (kpop for example) because they consider it a threat to masculinity. There's been a lot of blowback lately I've noticed, less, not more open.

I feel like today the rhetoric surrounding normal human experiences is like people in history trying to plot out astrological entities around the earth instead of the sun. It's not complicated to me in saying, puberty and childhood is often about finding yourself and sometimes you're so sure about something only to change your mind later. That's a normal part of growing up. If we held teenagers of yesteryear responsible for their decision-making at that age into adulthood they'd wind up pretty s…

I would say that women are more content being sexless because they're more likely to have friend groups and communities to make up for their lack of relationships. Women cannot advertise their promiscuity without being raged at and condemned by other women. I have a higher sex drive than my husband. I can even link to a guy admitting to feeling irrationally inadequate for not being able to get it up 5 times a day like his wife. Do I think women with possibly high sex drives do not even realize i…

The rates are rising for virgins because people reap what they sow. The rising rates for promiscuous behavior I think has a lot to do with economic factors making settling down difficult so people are dating for a much longer period of time in their lives.

Having disagreements is normal, it's how you handle those disagreements that can determine the health of your relationships. I once asked my husband what made him so set on me. He said it was my altruism. I don't seek accolades for the things I do, and I've also allowed people to think badly of me in the past for their sake, even if it wasn't my fault and I didn't deserve it. It's not an insecurity, rather the opposite because I choose when to take those consequences, and often only bothered to …

Listening to some youngins talk about what dating is like now is very interesting. 3rd wave coincided with the development of online dating.

Not as much in college as my workplace culture so for quite a while, but I only dabbled to blow off steam. Does not equal hoe at all. I was usually in a relationship and just hung out to wingwoman various people and see what the fuss was about.

There are subs dedicated to cheating and the delusions that go with it are plentiful. In real life I knew women who were especially interested in men in relationships, even if they were disgusting and unattractive guys. Why?

I wanted to shed light on how it isn't so universal or black and white what that definition is, even if it is the most commonly seen.

I beg to differ as women make up half the population so their perception contributes as much as men. Also, you asked for women's perspectives?? So yeah, if that is the market for Asian women, that's what they like. If you consider the last 30-40 years being recent you might have a point but most people would not consider that recent at all.

Generally asking questions is not wrong, but independent study or exploration is also a way to learn new things without being inconsiderate of the people you bother with questions.

Waymond is not a weird take on masculinity in the Asian world. The happy cheerleader or emotional quiet dude is a trope in shoujo/reverse harem stories, even mainstream video games. I like waymonds, even my first couple of boyfriends were waymonds, but I learned it's not for me in this world. They're the guys who drop anything and everything appeasing others.

Christianity is a broad group. Some are so devout divorce is excommunication while on the other side you have people who only seem to be religious for show, and then everyone in between. Those more on the secular side of things naturally divorce more often, generally speaking the devout ones are quite serious about their unions because it's not purely romantic.

This is actually the reason why I don't have many girlfriends. It's really disturbing when you're told something negative and petty about a person and expected to take a stance on it. (That and being asked to accompany other women to the bathroom in groups.)

They probably care just as much as any young woman which is, not usually when they willingly participate and plenty do on the down low. Does it affect them similarly to women coming away from similar experiences? Yes. When someone experienced engages in these acts with someone who isn't, it can change their perception of life, creating a gap between them and their peers. Sometimes that gap takes a long time to equalize again.

Women would benefit if they actually understood their personal sexual nature. I wouldn't tell a woman to hoe it up, but being extremely ignorant in either direction leads to some lifelong problems. Basically like any adult activity such as drinking or drugs personal responsibility is very important. Your body is your own so if it doesn't meet expectations maybe dial it down.

I've seen that happen and the simple answer is the girl was looking for a relationship but no guy thought she'd be interested so nobody asked her out.

Yeah the example I gave is kind of to show how two people aren't wrong to have their individual viewpoints per say, but the woman came away from that experience with "he can't keep up with her/doesn't make enough" when it was a difference in values and how they spend their money. The man made a comparable amount to her and she still felt he was leeching because he refused to be her carbon copy so to speak.

In his mind I thought I was better than rules when really I wasn't about to blindly follow what doesn't make sense.

If the prevailing thought is she worked her ass off to get to where she is there will always be resentment if she is now also being required to provide for her partner when she perceives men making it difficult for her in the first place.

Long ago my high school boyfriend told me videogames are for kids. Him, an avid gamer told me he'd quit one day. Maybe he did, but most adults these days play games of some sort contrary to what he believed would happen, a common sentiment back then.

I was just having a laugh. You know why women are anxious? It's because they pick at each other like they pick at men. Glorifying the superficial leads to the belief that your reputation matters more than who you are underneath, so long as nobody finds out it's all good in their world. This is something I tend to run into while living in big cities. For women, it's par for the course since puberty.

Yeah I mean it's a good film regardless. So I went ahead and looked it up, the characters are completely fictional, James Cameron was inspired by advant gard editor Beatrice wood who like many artists can be swingers. She was with one guy and then added the second guy who's a close friend of theirs. Her life wasn't anything like rose's, just the personality allegedly.

No, actually cal survives, but DiCaprio dies. He gets arrested and handcuffed to the ship to die while cal boards a boat by finding a lost child and pretending he's her father. Rose against all sense actually goes to the bottom of the ship to save DiCaprio and they eventually wind up in the water. He manages to find a door but it's only strong enough to hold up one so DiCaprio obviously makes her get on the door as he freezes to death. She gets picked up by a boat. At a point she sees cal but hi…

At least according to the movie she was essentially being forced to play along against her will. Her mom says if she doesn't marry the guy they will wind up on the streets because they're only upper class by name. Also at the time not having a male figure is not a great place to be for women. Apparently rose's father was dead, either way he wasn't there so...

I'm not answering because you clearly have an agenda and are baiting to take out your issues on someone today. You're not a person that deserves to be taken seriously and I wasn't talking to you in the first place. I don't care for your opinions. Clearly they're worthless as you can't perceive a possible perception beyond your own projected hurt feelings. Gloating about something you clearly don't understand is just embarrassing, Jesus Christ.

It's money related because people, especially people who work to have money, believe that money is power. That it is the indicator of personal success and value. I don't personally ascribe to it. It's just the why.

I think men prefer getting laid to keeping their egos intact. Most people would realize if money were not an issue other doors would be open to you but we live in a country that's still growing out of the only men provide phase. Lots of lonely rich women just never figure the possibility of them winding up alone until it happens because of how easy it was when they were younger.

The general thought process is "people get mad at me unless I lie."

Abortion and financial abortion are not the same thing. Someone needs to care for the child. Either taxpayers, parents, or adoption.

Usually from what I've seen the reason is they were coerced into it in the past, not because they ever truly wanted to. Regardless, people need to decide what they want in their lives. If men don't want women with a promiscuous past, that is their choice. Sometimes your values are not compatible. Sex positivity does not negate consequences for either side, man …

The gaming industry started becoming ultra woke with events like blizzard announcing to the world why it is a company's imperative to be socially politically involved and made a lot of money off that narrative. Most companies followed suit until blizzard showed their hand in the china vs Hong Kong debate. What it comes down to is money. It always is about the money. Businesses will tell you what you want to hear if they think it'll make them money because the point of business is to make money. …

Completely true for me. Humor is often a way to cope with tragic events. Sharing a laugh is a way to bond over crappy situations.

What makes a celebrity famous is from unconventional good looks believe it or not. Unique features make a person memorable, and in time creates trends with people emulating their looks. Attractiveness matters, but it's not nearly as universal as people think. In a group of people there are a few blondes and we decide blondes are most attractive because they stand out. Everyone wants to be attractive so they dye their hair blonde except for a couple rebels. Over time the group gets used to seeing…

If you're confident then you can be confident about your feelings as well. From all the interactions I've seen, women who invalidate mens' feelings do so because they see men as many things, but not people. How much confidence a guy has doesn't factor into whether women accept their feelings.

The only real way to have your cake and eat it too is to ask your friend how he feels.

I consider some social factors to fall under biology. The biological discrepancy, besides males being physically stronger most of the time, is who bears children. You can argue certain species are matriarchal because the males have to compete against each other like elephants or lions. The females don't have to cooperate, but if they don't the males would have less reason to stick around as they try to spread their seed. In a vacuum where there are lots of males, single females, and groups of fe…

Because you're expected to be the foundation of society as the continuity of patriarchal or hunter/gatherer influences.

I tend to give agency to people's choices so in both instances they're free to do as they please and assume the risks of what may come so long as they are old enough to make informed decisions.

I'm all for mandatory testing but I also take consideration to the fact that people don't want the government too involved in their lives with a database of everyone's dna. I'd generally argue it's a bit of a moot point since there's already a database and all they'd need is a few relatives to 'zero in' on your signature dna.

It is not fair, but it is this way because the governing body has a vested interest in keeping things this way until a better solution comes along. They don't want taxes being wasted on people who do not contribute to society, and having kids without both parents contributing financially increases the risk of poverty significantly which means everyone else has to 'raise these kids' through taxes, and that is in many ways worse than 'paying for a kid you didn't consent to having' because now you'…

I will say that if you go to female dominated spaces online such as Tumblr and fandom Twitter, you'll see more feminine and boyish men getting more sexualized than other types of men so I wonder if the fear of being treat like a piece of meat (like women have) is part of the aversion from men when it comes to these types.
