Young men giving up on marriage: ‘Women aren’t women anymore’ | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 32229311 United States 01/22/2013 11:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was married and my husband cheated - and I'm sure many will blame me for that..all of you men know other men that will cheat even when they have a great woman - so I dont want to hear it. Quoting: Pamelaantoinette Regarless,I'm in my 40s, attractive, very sucessful, built a beautiful home, etc. No kids, help my family and friends. I haven't dated for 12 years..why. Because most men are only looking for someone to take care of them, while they persue selfish interest. Give me a break - a woman has to work and take care of everything on her own. Pay the bills, clean the house, do the shopping and cooking, hire contractors to fix things around the house while he sits on the couch or watches porn. LOL.. yes, resonsible, ethical (and yes..attractive) women have changed becasue they're better off alone. What a joke. ^this^ |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 27317240 United States 01/22/2013 11:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My generation was enjoying our early 20's when online social networking took over. I can't speak for every guy, but my standards for wife material went way up when "nice girls" realized how much attention they got by showing off cleavage to their 500 "closest friends". Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27317240 I started to think maybe I'm just going for the wrong women... maybe I need to find one that doesn't have an online profile where she shares every damn detail of every relationship. Nothing is worse than getting blasted publicly for some argument that was expected to remain private. As it turns out, a girl without social networking is like the proverbial virgin bride and I stopped being an idealist in thinking that Holy Grail is out there. Maybe I'm just old fashioned but it's difficult to want to marry a girl that thinks it's classy to broadcast her ass and tits on the internet. All that is to say that despite what bothers me about the growing trend of low self-esteemed females out there, it saved me from a few that I was ready to commit to way too early. I'm not saying my future wife isn't out there, but I've learned that being 31 and having no kids - while many of my friends have their own little monsters - is pretty fucking awesome. In other words, why buy the cow when the milk is on clearance? As and older female I'm floored by these pics of young girls all over the net. It's appalling! Where are their parents? Why are girls cheapening themselves this way? And why the hell are the so-called feminists not addressing this? Is THIS was they fought for? Many women from that era have woken up and realize they were sold a load of horseshit. Now if the younger women would just wake up. As far as why they cheapen themselves, I can only imagine that many are simply insecure to the point of overcompensation. A lack of confidence combined with a new social platform to show off their "assets" seems to many like a viable solution. From my perspective, when a girl is walking around half-naked and uploading cleavage pictures on her Facebook, it destroys the mystery and ruins her appeal. I'm not saying that a woman shouldn't be comfortable with her body but rather, there's been a degradation of standards in the way many of them will dress in public. That being said, I think Dave explains it all better than anyone else can. |
LEGION, FOR THERE ARE MANY User ID: 1509227 United States 01/22/2013 11:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You know, I sent over 1000 ''meet me'' invitations on Plenty of Fish and I only got about three responses from fat chicks. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30262762 I tried a little experiment on match.com. I posted the normal sort of closeup as a main picture. I left out details about my job etc. in my profile. I got about 2 emails a week and maybe half a dozen smiles. Then I changed my main pic to one of me standing next to my Porsche at an SCCA event. I put in my income stats (nearly 200k a year). You would have thought I was Brad Pitt and Sean Connery's love child! I had almost 120 emails, smiles, and endless chat invitations. Confirmed what I already knew about American women. Golddiggers. If you hav to buy them a present get them a pickaxe. Men can really love, women do not. They operate on a different wavelentgh. Men only project their hopes and dreams on women. Women only take advantage of mans hope and love. They dont love. Not really If you know un-conditional love from your mother, then you will know the type of woman that can love.... Indeed! I had a mother like that. And I married a woman like that. Married 36 years with two beautiful daughters....and we have been faithful. I worry about my daughters though, not to many good men out there. LEGION |

SilverPatriot User ID: 10518597 United States 01/23/2013 12:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Perhaps it is due to men no longer being allowed to be men in our dismal economy and the lack of employment opportunities males give up because they cannot support themselves never mind a wife and family. Perhaps younger females are falling back to males as the protector and breadwinner while males are simply lost and unable to use their initiative and creativity due to socialism and the government fostering an ever-growing dependent class. Think beyond the box is a saying lost upon those who never learned how to seek their niche in life. |

Both men and women are impatient when searching for the one and marry for the wrong reasons. Generally, men marry women that they are sexually attracted to and can play the part of a good "servant ". Generally, women will marry a good provider. These are not good reasons to marry. Infatuation lasts about seven months to two years. Be patient and Never Give Up.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 25867801 United States 03/02/2013 10:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The good men, like me, get burnt once and learn our lesson. I did everything in the world for my wife for 16 years only to have her betray me. She even admitted to everyone it's her fault but it's "her life and she can do what she wants". I doubt I'll ever marry again, but if I do it will be to an Asian or some other culture where the women aren't raised to be psychotic hippos who are never happy. American women SUCK. Yes, there are exceptions but they're few and far between. All the good ones are snatched up young and for a 40 year old like me the choices are divorced moms looking for a payday, or young golddiggers. I'll pass.

Green Glow User ID: 26508788 United States 03/02/2013 11:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Someone please explain how this is all the women's fault? Men have been cheating on women freely since the beginning of time while their women sit at home and wait like fools, wanting, NEEDING sex and a little conversation. Women used to stay at home to keep up the house up and children, only to find out their men had no respect for them at all. Ever seen mad men? I know personally an 82 YO woman who was the Mrs. Draper while her Madison ave hubby and his friends lied and cheated and took advantage of these women. Men here will blame women for not putting out but this simply isn't true. Others will say its biology and women should accept it and ignore it. Now if those same men had their women cheat all hell will break loose and his heart will be forever broken and every women in the world is the bitch at fault. Women aren't so hard to figure out as men make them out to be. Men just don't want to deal with what women really need then complain that women don't want to deal with their needs. It's hilarious. There's a reason women quit caring and it didn't happen because of feminism alone. Real men understand this and know how to treat their women. Sitting home and playing cod and watching porn while she does everything while sucking your dick isn't the answer. People are hopelessly selfish these days. And do you men hate feminism or don't you? You complain women are gold diggers and want to stay home and that you don't want to accept responsibility for one, then complain they don't stay home because they work and aren't real women anymore. Makes no sense. Do you want to be a man and provide so she can take care of the house and kids or do you want equal work distribution both financially and at home. The answer is neither. Most want a caregiver who needs nothing in return. Relationships are partnerships. That means both parts work together or it won't work. Both sexes must have something to bring to the table. Both must understand the duality of men and women and accept it. Unfortunately many men have been brought up in homes with only a mother who both worked and took care of the home and kids. These boys never learned how to be men. They only learned that a women should do everything. Sad. This isn't just a feminism problem folks. So many men don't step up and take care of their own. Single moms don't get that way alone. Women as well as men need to be held accountable. Men complain that women are whores and dress and act like them and then spend all day and night watching porn until the inevitable ED sets in. What a joke. I feel truly bad for my women friends. I know so many beautiful women that cant get any at home because their husbands are spent on porn and cant get aroused from real sex. And its no surprise these women end up leaving or cheating. I guess that is women's fault too I suppose. Most men don't even know or appreciate what a real women looks like and then chastise women for trying so hard to meet an impossible standard men worship day and night. I am so glad I have a good one. I don't know what on earth I did to escape this modern day dating bullshit but thank god above I did. |

BG43214 User ID: 18147015 United States 03/02/2013 11:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | as a gay man, I really sympathize with you straight guys. My take on it? it's the parents' fault for raising all these little princesses!!! trust me!!! little girls hardly ever learn to be considerate of others, to learn about giving or sharing, etc., etc., so of course this is what we - or rather you - end up with!!!! I have straight friends who say that maybe gays have the right answer; men are USUALLY lots less complicated than the 'female'.......but gay guys have their problems with guys, too......just not to the extend you straight guys do!! Don't really know what to tell you.......maybe just masturbate once in awhile!! at least, as a famous gay playwright said, 'you don't have to worry about how you look or have to get dressed up"..........!!! then there's the foreign lady thing.......I know guys who did that.& ended up with real ladies; hard-working, unselfish, etc....... Ya never know, could be just the thing for you!! Anyway, good luck........and thanks for listening!!! |
