Does being a dad get you social validation?

Well I complained once to my ex that she never appreciated any of what I did to support the family. Her tone was very degrading when she answered that no, she would not show appreciation for doing "what I was supposed to do." As for the rest of the world, I didn't notice any thing different from how single and decently employed men were treated. Guys with menial jobs living with their mom might be treated poorly, but I am just speculating.

Yes. Is that the validation you are looking for? At what cost? Not a father myself, but I see women all the time in my industry fawning over men with kids. These men are usually part-time/every-other-weekend-fathers. But they get lots of attention from the chicks.

I used to be jealous. Then I swallowed the red pill, and see what the trade-offs are. A man with a kid, who can't see them, that pays CS, that gets attention from 3-6's. And I am free to do as I please. Sometimes those bitches say to me: "don't you want kids?" And I reply, "only if they're mine, and I get to keep them." And then they leave me the fuck alone. MGTOW.

Being a married dad is like being a road. When the road is new and smooth people are quiet because it is doing its job. Hit a pothole and everyone starts complaining. Hit a bad road and everyone starts screaming for men to fix or replace it.
