I think there are so many single girls in their late 20s and early 30s because ...

... I see a friend of mine explaining exactly how things happened in his divorce, and the son finds that unbelievable, but is nevertheless hesitant to marry his girlfriend Ashley.  In fact, due to his father's advice, he is starting to see how Ashley really manipulates.  And then he doesn't care whether his father's story is true or not, he can see things with his own eyes.  And doesn't want it.

Good, it is absolute foolishness for a man to get married these days.

There are always two extremes....the truth lies in the middle.

Nail. on. the. head.

The zeitgeist carries its own weight and momentum - not every anecdote benefits from objective juries to validate their truth- yet they carry their weight.  Not every man in a Batman costume is a liar, and everybody can see there is truth behind the convictions of these men who are denied justice whether the recipients of this truth want to realise it or not.

Also think of those men who took their own lives - who don't get the same media airspace as NOW and all the feminist-friendly media articles.  These dead men burden us with a weight of unresolved injustice, even if it can't be articulated or measured.

Not TOTALLY...just won't be around very much.  This is the first time I've posted since last week (cept for my bye-bye message).  Probably will not get a chance again til next week at the earliest (sigh).

Next time you see your girlfriend's friends, ask them one question.

"What do men get from being decent for women?"

That's the answer to "Why are there no decent men."

ask men "what do you get out of a relationship with women"

The typical answer is:
I get a lot out of a relationship... the sex is pretty good, and uhm... ah... uhm... and the sex is pretty good.

What have I gotten out of past relationships?

Well the sex was pretty good...
I ended up doing the almost all of the cooking, most of the cleaning, all of the auto and house repairs, purchased the majority of meals out...

Gee, that sex sure was expensive.

oh yeah - I forgot - I was the one going to the gym and staying in shape.

Even though I was making most of the money and doing most of the work in the relatiohship - my girlfriend had the nerve to mock "to honor and obey your husband" when discussing marriage preperations.

Luckly I wised up and told her that I was not getting anything out of the relationship and she needed to prover that she could be a decent wife.  She nearly choked.  I then called it off.  I bet she found some shmuck to replaceme - but at least I kept my dignity and money!

You did the right thing; she is definitely not marriage material.

Thanks Darth.

The sad thing is that what I described actually reflects the last four out of four girlfriends!

That's terrible.  :(

You have had the worst of luck with girlfriends.  I have not had any luck with girlfriends, since I have never had one.  I have never even been out on a date.  If that is what I would have to look forward to, I am obviously not missing much, unfortunately.

Never been on a date?  I guess concurring the universe must be pretty time consuming.  ;-)

I'm going to go way out on a limb here.... and ask these questions --

1) Have you ever done a thorough accounting (audit) of what your supposed relationships with women have benefited and cost you? (Not just money, but emotionally and in terms of where you want to go in your life?)

2) Have you experienced women who use sex/female privilege as a weapon? How did it make you feel?

3) Can you make a long list of all the things that women have done that have enhanced your life?
