Sorry, but technically we're not in the same species as per the constitution I swore to uphold in service to my country.

Another aspect not considered in these posts is typically a working woman, even if married, also takes on all the children and their homework to health to their laundry and running a houshold. Essentially, she ends up with two jobs.

3 jobs if the man she married decided marriage means he's kid #1 and 4 if he decided to live on the couch. Having lent an ear to shipmates commiserating, that regressive thinking does considerable damage to marriage. A healthy marriage isn't graduating from birth mom passed off to the '2nd mom' you marry, but ironically, these very same characters making the demand claim emasculation.

Speaking of music, give it a day for west encino to show up claiming misandry. Here's his tune:

I say this out of genuine love of people. Sympathy is reliably the last thing they need but the free pass they most want.

We can't for too long. It's unsustainable.

And they are depressed because they got screwed in marriage and the subsequent divorce. Living in your car and being harassed by maintenance support can do that to a guy!

Your so full of crap.
My first ex commited suicide just before our divorce was final. He neither got screwed (figuratively) nor was he harassed, nor did he pay but 50$ in "maintenance" (diapers and food for his kids) in nine months.

The fact is, when the modern women's movement started in the 60s, many men did their best to meet with their demands. Somehow such men ended up being treated like s__t while women now went for the jerks instead. Is it any wonder that young men see this example and say, "Why should I try?"
My post was not anti-men, you are reading things into posts to make them appear how you want them. There are very, very few women who post in this forum who are men haters, myself included.

Oh and BTW, for some historical facts, the Women's Movement in the US did not start in the 1960s.

1848-The first women's rights convention is held in Seneca Falls, New York. After 2 days of discussion and debate, 68 women and 32 men sign a Declaration of Sentiments, which outlines grievances and sets the agenda for the women's rights movement. A set of 12 resolutions is adopted calling for equal treatment of women and men under the law and voting rights for women.
