Why does society celebrate women opting out of marriage as freedom but shame men for doing the same thing?

Anything done by a woman is amazing.

That's because it's in relation to what they generally accomplish. 😆

Why understanding this for a man development)

Platinum247365 · 2019-08-13T15:08:42+00:00

My contention is that women crave attention and they want the spotlight. One way to get attention is to say the classic "I don't need a man".

Because men are constantly vilified and women are worshiped. And men opting out of marriage makes it harder for women to use men for money.

MetaCognitio · 2019-08-13T23:10:19+00:00

When men break their social contract of working, self sacrifice, giving women money, having kids etc they are shamed to make them do it.

When women break theirs it is often seen as empowering and freeing women.

It’s the same as if your boss decided to opt out of giving you paychecks.

society might do that, but we here at MGTOWx should celebrate men for opting out of marriage.

Double standards nothing more nothing less. Honestly marriage is an artificial construct which has no place in the modern world.

They expect men to behave the way they have for decades and not adapt. Otherwise, it fracks up what the feminist movement is all about.

Mainstream media's are horse shit and will always be.

My job provides me the money to go out and live my life and save for retirement. Nothing more, nothing less. It pays me enough to travel a couple times per year, spend time with friends and family, and save money each month so that I'm not living paycheck to paycheck.

It doesn't matter what I do in those 40 hours when I'm at work because I'm never getting those 40 hours back. You can get fired, for being loyal 30 years but the CEO decides to cut your department. Your career didn't do so much for you then did it?

A job is a means to an end for me. And that end is enjoying life. I won't correct women into being careerists because I want them working hard to pay those taxes that they voted in

Marriage is women’s retirement package. It doesn’t matter if it’s successful or not, she gets paid whether she stays or divorce rapes you.

Men opting out is s huge threat to her.

PreDeterminedOutcome · 2019-08-13T03:04:40+00:00

Women have two paths to financial security, marriage, or career. Men opting out of marriage remove that choice.

Men, on the other hand, have no choice but to work for a living.

Welcome to equal opportunity ladies, here's a shovel, there's the shit.

Her is exactly why:

The cash inflows to women from the divorce-raped men are over $1 TRILLION/year in the US of A & only second to the cash going to the IRS. Any more questions?

JD-Anderson · 2019-08-13T03:17:05+00:00

My ex probably tells everyone who will listen she’s independent, but not mention the monthly check I write to her. I chalk it up to a learned mistake, now I just don’t play the game. I love watching it, though.

unkill_009 · 2019-08-13T03:40:16+00:00

I will give it a shot at this

Marriage for women implies that they are gonna be second in command except for rare occasions, that husband is the Captain of the boat and she could only support him, basically her life now revolves around family especially if she decides to give kids

Getting out of marriage for women gives them the control back for better or worse, so thats why it's kinda celebrated

Since husband is the default Captain of the boat, a failure of marriage is also blamed on him or not celebrated

Men are expected to be leaders, a mgtow guy is alien to them, society immediately project that the guy doesn't have good traits required to make it work or because he isn't good enough that's why the relationship failed

Methodless · 2019-08-13T04:38:49+00:00

An independent woman is seen as a woman doing more than one what an average woman could/would.

A man not supporting a woman is seen as a man doing less than what an average man could/would

batfish55 · 2019-08-13T05:54:21+00:00

Turd Flinging Monkey went into this.

Feminism releases women from their responsibilities of marriage and monogamy (hence, strong and independent), but keeps men accountable (hence, you're supposed to pay some chicks' way in life). That's why.

Youtube search redman group 50: TRP vs MGTOW. It's a good listen.

drumsOFwar · 2019-08-13T07:41:14+00:00

It doesn't matter. Do you, don't worry about anyone or anything else. That's a defeatist mindset letting that shit bother you. Also please don't come here to talk about women this/ men that. There is already a sub for that; r/mgtow.

lextragon · 2019-08-13T08:28:36+00:00

Because, as George Carlin would say, think of how stupid an average person is and realize that half of the world population is dumber than that.

JaSamSamzy · 2019-08-13T08:34:30+00:00

I see this as a part of the bigger agenda. The segregation between men and women is already somewhat successful (and we are part of the reason as a natural consequence).

Keep in mind that most journalists (or in that case, the female ones) are part of this generation and they actually believe what they say.

Benifenn · 2019-08-13T08:40:49+00:00

Society expects men to self sacrifice and if you don't, you're scum

Go your own way and define your own self worth

Mindraker · 2019-08-13T09:00:24+00:00

Marriage rates are plummeting. Religion is losing its influence. Sure, initially it might look good on paper to be married, but remember, you're going to walk away with less than 50% of that if you get divorced.
