“I don’t love who you have become.” What could be clearer than that?
Agreed ... because I know that a good man would treat me the same way.
There are quite a few grammatical errors.
“... just because women have the right to vote does not mean that men have the right to be irresponsible jerks and abandon their families,...”
The last study I recall on this topic, >70% of divorces in the USA are filed by women. So how is it that men are abandoning their families? I have not personally experienced this event, but numerous male friends have and in ALL cases the women abandoned the marriage.
As a woman I can answer. Women want to marry a man they want to birth children with.
I’d say all the men on this thread fail.

The meaty parts are in the lower half.
A woman friend told me recently that half of all girls at her high school, at a minimum, had had abortions. She is 34, so who knows how bad it is today.
Women are mentally, emotionally, and physically inferior to men on average. Not all, of course, but on average it is so, as any honest man here can attest with enough experience with them. There is a reason why the Bible regards women as helpmates but never masters.
It would be wise for us, after the revolution that is inevitable, to take that opportunity and steal the vote from them and reestablish historic social roles. Thousands of years of human history does not lie.
Yeah but they’re taking us down with them.
Historically, women married men who could support and protect them in a world which could be harsh and dangerous.
Several decades of safety and prosperity have made modern Western women think this selection criterion is no longer relevant. If things ever fall apart, and their survival hinges on what type of man they've attached themselves to, they will find out how wise their choices were.
Men can no longer guarantee any of those things.
No one ever could guarantee support or security. All anyone could do is try, and it was a task for parents to attempt to convince daughters to go with a man who the parents thought might be more able and willing than the unemployed drummer the daughter was currently infatuated with.
As a father, I understand how futile the attempt might be.
My momma raised me to rely on myself even though married. This is 2019, not 1950.
Why do they want to be “equal”? What advantage is there in coming down to our level?
Good for you
I'm older (OK, old) and I have rented out rooms to millennial women. I can safely say that most seem lost. They do not know how to date, how to interact with men. They dress nice, look fabulous, know how to walk the walk, talk the talk -- but they do not "think feminine."
One young woman, who is very nice -- and gorgeous to boot -- bears some hostility toward her father (parents are divorced). Others laugh about "girl power." They are into the Instagram images of all the cool, "groovy" (my age is showing) people. One of them hopes to get married some day, but is doing little to show a focused, responsible life. She pays the rent & utilities, but works part-time & spends the rest of the day partying.
I also partly agree with Rush Limbaugh. The feminist movement has definitely been empowering to formerly marginalized women. And don't get me wrong: I am glad women do have more options & opportunities. But somewhere along the way young women forgot how to be women. They see the traditional female role as either a burden or a male plot.
Which it never was. For most of history men & women struggled together; life was a struggle. Around 300 years ago, once life started getting better (thank you, white males), women advanced. Middle-class women in particular found more leisure time, probably too much. They have been the ones in the back of all these stupid parades & initiatives.
I'm female, and I can no longer stand being around other women. While I acknowledge the problem of toxic masculinity, toxic femininity is equally problematic.
I suggest you read GENERATION OF PSYCHOPATHS, about the Baby Boomers. The author ascribes their pathology to bottle feeding, instead of breast, too much TV, and Dr. Benjamin Spock's permissive baby-raising. (IMHO, the secularization of society also contributed.)
I wii do. Thanks mooch
“I can safely say that most seem lost.”
Yes. The young men are also lost. Their impulse is to pursue the women, but 80% of women find only 20% of men to be attractive. A tall, even somewhat handsome guy can go on Tinder and have all the sex he can dream of. An average or below average girl can do the same. What a life. How fulfilling. Ugh. Emptiness and VD. What a life. Islamic sexual demographics in the Land of the Free. Ugh.
