I read something yesterday that rang so true...women will love you unconditionally until they make you undesirable to them. It's not their fault, that's just who they are.
Out of all the horrible, revolting things posted on this forum - especially among those comments that haven't been taken down - this really does have to be near the top of the list.
Believe me, I'm not arguing to have it taken down or have you suspended. Not in the slightest. I'm just surprised given how heavy handed the moderation can be at times that this escaped the filter.
I actually think it's good for people to reveal their character like this, so everyone can see who they really are and judge for themselves.
The misogyny here is revolting. I can just picture you patting all the women of the world on the head and mansplaining to them how it's not their fault how horrible they all are, that they're just not as good/smart/strong/whatever as men.
It's disturbing enough to me that you think this way, but even more so that you feel comfortable enough with this garbage to post it in on a forum. I'm curious as to whether you'd be willing to post this stuff online under your real name and face the justifiable real-life consequences of your caveman mentality.
That some people agree with you is disgusting and that more people aren't calling you out for it is disappointing.
It would be a valid debate to discuss the merits of marriage in today's society. But that's not what you're doing. You have and continue to bash all women because of your limited experience with some women. Your question is not whether marriage is a good thing. Your question is whether it's a good thing for men. You've differentiated between the two, and I'm not sure why, especially given the far more equal roles men and women play in today's workforce and households.
Your argument is far more archaic and outdated than the institution of marriage.
And you keep citing the failure rate of marriages as some sort of proof that you're right. While the numbers you cite may be statistically accurate, so what? There are a lot of stupid people in the world making really stupid decisions. So we should base our decisions in life on what these morons do?
There are millions and millions of people who have gotten married for horrible reasons or without any careful consideration. Everyone in their lives probably knew they were doomed from the start. So that means marriage is bad? I don't think so. I think it means those two people shouldn't have married each other. Nothing more, nothing less.
No one made you marry the woman you did. I don't know anything about your relationship with her. But that was your decision. Not hers alone. And certainly not anyone else's. But instead of just owning your actions, you want to blame half the population on earth "because that's just who they are." You're trying to make yourself feel better about the poor choices you've made in life. And you've come to this forum seeking validation.
Maybe you'll get it from some people. But I'm not one of those people. I think it's sickening.
