Weekend Spinster Throwback: Over a century later and the copes remain the same

Thanks u/shrinkshooter, but it's not really a good post even on the weekend. Most of the responses are basically "men are trash and low-value" which typically comes from the "I'm a strong independent woman who don't need no man" hoe-phase types. And we don't allow posts of women just male-shaming.

But we allow articles of women who are seriously seeking commitment and wondering WAATGM in a way that exposes their promiscuity, poor dating behavior, or unreasonableness. Example articles here and here. Thanks.

Because Being A Wife Is Too Much Work

As if working 14-16 hour days (because the Fair Labor Standards Act doesn't yet exist) was such a pipe dream for men.

Because You Don't Need Another Pet In The House

What a joy of a woman to be around. /s

Because Being Single Pays Better

Sure, if you actually like working for your whole life.

Because It's Hard To Find A Good Man In A Sea Of Fools

If everyone around you is the problem, it's more likely you're the problem.

Because Men Are Like Bad Desserts

Do you think a man worth anything wants a woman who is a dessert expert?

Because Men Don't Realize How Much You're Worth

The dating marketplace decides what you're worth. You don't.

Because Marriage Is The Death Of Freedom

Boo hoo. Men were (and still are) expected to provide for their wives and children until they croak.

Because Forever Is A Really Long Time

No shit, Sherlock.

Because You're A Piece Of Rare China

If you were so rare and special, you would have been snatched up by now.

Because You Haven't Found One That's Attractive Enough

Another case of 49er Syndrome.

Because All The Good Ones Are Taken

That means you're not worth as much as you think you are.

Because You Haven't Been Called To Action Yet

If the men you want aren't pursuing you, you're not worth their level.

Because You Didn't Follow Your Man Abroad

Possibly the one legitimate complaint. Most people don't like uprooting their entire lives and moving to another country.

Of course it was all men's fault!

The one who mentioned "other professions": whatever did she mean, I wonder!
