The message is getting out: Why men don't marry feminists.

The feminist worldview is antithetical to love because its focus is solely on women: their needs, their wants, their desires, and their rights. Love can’t possibly be sustained with an attitude like that.

I think that sums it up quite nicely.

If I understand this correctly:

FoxNews says men shouldn't date/marry female feminists.
Guardian says women shouldn't date/marry male feminists.

Seems to me everyone agrees that one shouldn't date/marry feminists (of either sex).

OK. I'm fine with this.

Hey, women shouldn't have to do anything traditional.

Now get back to work. That's her dime you're wasting. Plus, she did all of that emotional labor during courtship so you owe her. Big time. So you might need to cook her dinner, change the sheets and vacuum the bedroom. She was too tired and sleepy after her hard efforts at self-actualization all afternoon. Which is when she was eating Cheez-Its and Fritos in bed, talking on the phone with friends and watching the soaps.

Emotional labor.

Bloomberg published just last week, married Americans are unhappier than ever? In my opinion, it is largely because there are so many women in America today who, either knowingly or unknowingly, have a feminist mind.

Their data is: Married couples are more unhappy.

Unfortunately, the Uncle Tims are often the ones who lose in the end because all too often feminist wives regret their choice to make their marriages androgynous

And that huffpost link:

Well, guess again. Fifty percent of marriages are still ending in divorce, and women continue to be the gender that initiates those endings.

Divorce rates are about the same, but women are initiating more of them. The article writer pulls "the feminization of men caused this" out of their ass.

Pretty weak links here. The original article and the one linked are both based on feelings and anecdotes, not data about the "feminization of men", no data on "men leaving feminist women", just stoking the feelings of the average guy here. Don't want a feminist/SJW wife? Don't marry one. If you think they are causing society's problems then you need better science to back it up. Unhappy couples and divorce rates tell you nothing of the causes. However, be the change you want to be, don't marry feminists.

...but the one area of the country they're scarce is in the South and the Midwest. Because that's where the real men live.

Okay, maybe there some good things in this article, but I'm gonna judge it based on that. It's garbage.

Yeah, that's my opinion as well. Been saying it for years. Especially, the "unknowingly" part. Most AW don't call themselves feminists but are still following the feminist playbook perfectly without even realizing it. It's way past time they were called out. The more women that do it, the better. Thank you, Suzanne Venker.

I didn't know the family court only rapes men who marry feminists!

TheDongerNeedsFood · 2017-10-15T16:57:20+00:00

And I'm sure her husband totally oppresses her by paying the mortgage and all that crap as well.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 88%. (I'm a bot)

Feminists teach women, above all else, to stand up for themselves against the evil men of the world.

My friend Helen Smith, Ph.D., refers to these type of men as "Uncle Tims" in her book "Men on Strike." An Uncle Tim is a male sellout who kowtows to feminists because he's just as left-wing as they are and thus agrees with the feminist worldview, or too weak to stand up for himself and knows that if he says anything he's not suppose to, he won't get sex.

We need real men who aren't afraid to stand up to feminist gobbledygook.

oh god are we looking at fox news articles again?

I get what the author is getting at, but finances are also a huge deal. Families with unstable incomes can also have a large effect (also, debt). Both of which increased in recent years with the economic downturn. It's just a strong opinion that's assuming an association exists because of how they feel.

Why men dont marry feminists?

Because not every man is a ashamed of being male, is not a self loathing cuck, has a little pride and sees through the bullshit.

More men are waking up to these things. Too many are still asleep.

This opinion piece is for very ~ basic people.

joewhyit · 2017-10-16T13:48:24+00:00

Hm. TIL “Uncle Tim” is a term.

Stealing it.

This is only the american corporate media playing people off each other so we are distracted from real issues.

Like war, right wing economic policy making the rich very rich while we get poorer and so on.

The public have been totally diss-engaged from any sort of serious involvement in politics and economics.

Edward Bernays and the capitalist foundations that created gender studies have a large hand in this nonsense.

As a feminist who enjoys reciprocal sex and is getting married shortly:

"Well alrighty then."
