Saw enough of this in high school in the 70s to know I wanted no part of this scene. The boys acted like cocky jerks, the girls like willing pieces of kleenex who suffered after the fact.
Nothing shocks my senses quite like this hook-up culture on college campi.
It’s hard to think of anything more cold, sterile, and impersonal. I have no idea what young people see in it.
If they even are your kids. But no matter, the government will make you support them even if they are some other guy's kids.
Marriage also tended to ensure that the average man got a woman of his own. In the current "hook up" culture, you have lots of women chasing after the most desirable men. This results in the "alpha" males getting lots of sex, and the "beta" males being ignored.
Unfortunately, a woman's marriage to a beta male was and is no guarantee the woman would stop having sex with alpha males on the side. That way she gets the best of both worlds: adultery to get alpha male genes for her children, while being married to a chump who will--often unknowingly--spend his resources raising those kids whose genes aren't even his.
Many women do this in reverse, too: they'll have children by alpha males--in or out of marriage to them--then with children in tow, and having "learned to appreciate" chumps who are good and meek providers, finds some chump to marry to pay for the raising of the alpha male(s) kids.
The best solution--and the natural one--is polygyny, in which true alpha males get to have more than one wife. This keeps the spririt of competition for the husband alive in the wives, thereby engaging them in a contest of which of them can best please the husband. It also ensures that many women can honestly, without having to cheat, endow their children with alpha male genes. And those are just a few of the benefits.
As for the beta males? Well, there will be a slight shortage of leftover homely females who would still cheat on them with an alpha if the opportunity arises (never marry a woman who travels for business, etc.), but that's the breaks.
And I believe even if you can prove the kid isn’t yours, the government will make you support it anyway.
No, you do not give lingerie unless you are really, really close as in married or engaged or about to pop the question close. Not unless you want a dark chocolate colored eye.
I have to agree. At least in a cathouse, it is clear who is buying and who is selling, what is acceptable and the prices attached to it.
A bad side to the feminist movement. Women are free to express themselves sexually. Well so are men. And men are less likely to look for a long term relationship when women are so free sexually.
Really? I thought a woman without a man was like a fish without a bicycle. At least that's what all the man-hating lesbian feminists that occupied my college back in the mid-70's told me.
(Great way to win someone over to your point of view, BTW--Insulting them right out of the gate.)
Exactly. The facts: there are easy women and there the marrying, long term relationship kind.
Interesting that the left push the easy kind as some kind of great thing, example: Sandra Fluke.
Ah yes. “JOC” night at the Mather AFB O Club.
“Stars and Bars” night at the Castle AFB O Club.
And even one “Animal Night” at NAS Miramar (you saw a version of THAT in “Top Gun”. I knew the “You’ve lost that Lovin’ Feeling” trick LONG before Tom Cruise did it on the big screen. . .)
I used to think that, but under our current system, I don't think there are any long termers.
To have women that behave over the long term, the man needs to be supported by society and by law.
Anything freely given can’t be given a high value.
Thus Fred Reed: "Bob likes his girlfriend... but he also likes his scuba gear."
Ladies, you wanted the rights and priveleges of being a man. Now they are yours to enjoy.
Sometimes. Also Chateau Heartiste.
Exactly. When women make themselves available to be used as receptacles, this is the result. They’ve been brainwashed into believing there are no differences between the sexes. But females do not and never will react to sex the way men do.
I’ll go out on a limb and say that if more girls WERE looking for their Mrs. degree, they would insist on at least SOME degree of respect from men.

No, the best solution is to ignore the alpha-chasing women, and refuse to be their "plan B".
The best solution has "adultery which results in cuckoldry" being grounds for divorce, with NO alimony and NO child support for children which are not biologically the husband's.
We see societies where polygyny is common, Muslim societies, and how well they work. A man who does not have the opportunity to have a family of his own, is a man who has no real stake in the survival of his society.
I hate those darned Hallmark(TM) holidays! Promoted to “holiday” status by the card and candy companies and the florists.
Plus, whenever I’m out seeking a gift for such occasions, my mind goes blank and I usually get the wrong thing.
