All these things meant to sound "honourable" and "respect" are actually nothing but manipulation (used by both men and women) to make men feel guilty and voluntarily harm themselves.

I have always heard, repeatedly that the female partner "sacrifices her career" when she becomes a full time time mom with no mention of the dad who also sacrifices his freedom and works somtimes 80+ hours to support at least 2 others, and the man is never really considered "sacrificing", unlike women.

You ever see those army recruitment ads where they make everything look fun and awesome and full of benefits, even though the reality is probably 90% drudgery and misery, 10% shitting yourself out of fear and a real possibility that you might die? Same thing. Men are routinely blindfolded as we are led to the slaughter.

By making feminine and "female work" appear as degrading and unfulfilling and contemptable as possible, it brings men to a point they are willing to put up with anything!
