I was requested to post this here...

I guess I'm one of those man children the women complain about.

When I was 30 i looked like I was 18, im short at 5'9",  and only made 50k. I had a Stem BS. I am nerdy science guy.  

Now I'm 50 and i look like I'm 35 ( I love the wrinkles on my face and with my salt and pepper hair and beard I look distinguished.) I can't wait until im 60, ill look like I'm 40.  Im still only still 5'9", but now I make 110k. I have an MS.  My career is going places.  I am still a nerdy science guy.  There is financial value in being a nerdy stem guy.

At 30 i was so starved for affection that any woman could have trapped me. Average looks, overweight, frumpy, low education, low earner. Any woman.  I would have loved her with my whole heart and soul.  But alas you weren't interested. 

Now at 50 I want nothing to do with women.

Not because I hate them, I surely don't but I learned to do with out.  They weren't interested in me, ok. I moved on.  

I learned to do for myself because I had no choice.  I learned to embrace singlehood.  To revel in it.  As I got used to it the feelings of loneliness went away.  In fact alone time is the best time. My time is my own. My hobbies and adventures fill my life.

But the women I know say  I'm missing out on so much. Like what?  What can a woman provide me i can't do for myself?

Kids. nope. Not interested.  I was committed childfree my whole life. personal choice. Non negotiable. Dont need your womb.

Sex. I've had sex with 12 women. One night stands (plural) , ltrs, played house for a while.  Most of the women I was with just weren't that good.  They never initiated anything.  Never did the sex things I was interested in.  Nothing crazy, a little lingere,  a little role play, a little spice. Nothing.   I always had to do all of the work.  Most of them just laid there and starfish.  I turned down sex with a live in partner because I was tired and didn't want to do all the work tonight. Well with that level of effort and reward I can just jerk off.  

Dating. Sure it i used to be more fun to do things as a couple. But how much rejection and pain did I have to swallow to get to be able to pay for that one date and then you said you weren't interested. Do i get my money back then?

Money.  I've earned my own. Being affluent dinks might have been nice but I have more money than I need with my simple tastes.  and none of them are content with what they have. They always want more. More stuff, more junk, more clutter, more debt.

Drama.  There is none in my life.  None.   I mean am I grilling pork chops or steak tonight?  

Cook and clean.  What I do is pay a nice grandmother $10/hr cash twenty hours a month.  5 hours a week covers most of the dishes, laundry, vacuuming, etc.  deep cleaning one room a week.  She brings me meals on her days because it's easier to cook for two, ok.

Shopping. I like to cook so  Instacart delivers my groceries for $10 every two weeks.

Yard work. I pay a boy to mow the lawn and clear the snow.

Divorce.  Yep.  Im missing that.   If I want to lose that much money,  I'll start gambling.   The way I figure,   blackjack has better odds than marriage.

Then add the feminist BS.  hard pass.  Nag and harp about non issues.   How im keeping you down in 2020.   how I abuse you by paying a maid to do the housework? How I oppress you by letting work a fun job while I cover the bills?

I'm working 100% for me and my goals.  A frugal minimalist lifestyle that provides meaning in my life That I enjoy.  For me.   Its not fancy but every day is an adventure and every meal a feast.

And lastly,  to the women.  You told us you didn't need us anymore and we listened.  We learned to do without. We moved on.  don't believe me. Read the literature, if a man doesn't have a first marriage by 35, statistically he won't get married. We learn to do without.

All you had to do is show a little interest in me at 30,  love me, show a little enthusiasm in the bedroom and at 50 I'd let you work part time if you want. A fun or hobby job. You'd be semi retired by now. We'd still have the maid, the yard guy, and the shopper. What would do all day? Relax, shop, Facebook, spend my money?

A life of technolgy and leisure that 99% of women who ever lived in the last 10k years could dream of.  

But I'm short and nerdy.
