"I don't need no man."

Whenever I hear this, it's always coming from a woman who expects men to contribute as much if not more to her lifestyle. See, if you as a woman are able to pay for your own expenses but then want a man to cover them, then you are indeed admitting that you do need one. This is because if you're getting your bills and essentials paid for, while not giving anything in return monetarily, then you're indeed saying that you need someone to take care of you. You can't then make the ever absurd claim that you don't need something, even if you can pay for it yourself. Given you've taken the time to entertain someone who you may not even like just to get them to contribute to your livelihood. This holds double for adult actresses who a majority if not all their livelihood to men who pay for their content. It also holds for women who are married or in a relationship with men. The fact that they are taking care of these women is proof that these women are submissive to them. It's only men who don't require that submissiveness that make demands that you pay your share. It's only weak men who make neither a requirement that you pay for yourself nor submit to them.

For the women out there who say incredibly silly things like this, the question is if you don't need a man, then how are you going to start a family. All other methods will literally lead to a broken home. If you have a child, then they'll have inevitably weaker life outcomes because there's things you as a woman simply can't teach them. Even if you as women don't need men, your children do. Assuming you don't want kids, then you might as well say I don't want a family. Which opens up an entirely different line of questioning. That being, is your freedom from obligation more important than your role to society and the carrying over of your values and principles through your children. Essentially, do the women who don't need men not recognising that they're basically saying they don't want a family and don't care for the preservation of society. That they're announcing that they're incredibly shallow and selfish. Even if you have every right to decide to not want these things, name me one thing in life more important than having a family?

Their copout is, "I want one, but I don't need one."

This is better, but then begs the question... what are you willing to do to get what you want. If the case is that you want one, then what makes you think you deserve one. What makes you think a man would want you, what are you offering that he wants from you. If you don't know what you have to offer a man, then it's likely that you don't have anything to offer or don't care to figure it out. It also means you don't care to know what men want. And if you don't care what men want, what makes a man think you'll care what he wants...

All of this continues to sound like pure Individualistic nonsense meant to subvert all society. Meant to make everyone suffer, and what's crazy is that when you tell some women this, they say you're trying to control them. Like, how am I in my effort to explain to you that you actually need men more than you know, trying to control you. Why is the truth somehow insulting to and threatening?
