>>1891292>>1891297Fully typed out a thoughtful reply to you two but it didn't post and got deleted kek. Anyway what I was going to say was along the lines of: I like my parents fine and we have a good relationship, it's just for me it's like: "okay you two raised me for 18 years we had a ball, now I'm gonna go fuck off and do my own thing and figure my own life out, I'll call once a week and visit every month, love ya!" I think living on my own without my parents encouraged me to individualize and become the person that I am today; I make choices my parents would never agree with, do things that might shock them, engage with people they don't think are proper, all because it helps me actualize and become. Most people that live at home, in my experience, can't fully be themselves and become stuck in the confines of the family unit. I can't be assed being friends with people when I can't even go to visit them without stepping on their parents' toes, and I certainly can't make love to a scrote under his parents' roof, I just can't do that without feeling cringe. In my experience as well, men that move out of the home earlier are more keen to cook for themselves, clean up after themselves, etc., whereas men that stay at home are often babied and they expect their mums to clean and cook for them. The reason I stopped befriending people that still live at home is because when I was in uni, the amount of times my friends would go "oh, I can't go out past 9pm dad won't be happy," or "oh, you can't come over because mum is having card night," or some other variant of that annoyed me to no end. Again, love my family they're great people, but it's
my life to go and live and I'd rather surround myself with people who are also living
their own lives separate from the family unit.

>>1891124>should be able to live as the opposite sexAgree with everything except this. There is no way to live as "the opposite sex", trans people need therapy to accept that they can be GNC without literally becoming the opposite sex.
Most trans people (especially TIFs) are just people with a mental illness. Dysphoria is a real thing, it doesn't mean they're literally the opposite sex but it does mean their pain is real and they need some sort of treatment. The reactionary part is retards going full trad and accusing every TIF of being a pedophile pooner fetish freak when they're clearly just women reacting poorly to abuse and trauma, or reacting poorly to the stress of being GNC/lesbian. The real villains are the doctors, pharma, and therapists who profit off of selling snake oil to mentally ill trannies.
This is probably a tinfoil but this rhetoric is so common now in radfem spaces (that TIPs are evil irredeemable villains who always transition maliciously) that I'm starting to think it's a psyop to let the medical field and politicians off the hook when it all crashes down. They're just gonna sweep a decade of top-down, aggressive pro-troon policy under the rug and act like the evil TIPs FORCED those poor helpless pharma companies to lobby for pro-troon laws.

>>1891329It depends on how you approach it. It can definitely cause dehumanization of others if approached with the illusion of detachment from the physical world. Ironically, that thought comes from attachment. It's akin to meaningless nihilism. Everything arises with everything else. Nishitani talked about this in "Religion and Nothingness". There is a distinction with Sunyata and this kind of dehumanizing mentality.
We have to break free from the duality of viewing existence as either/or in order to prevent this. Being aware of the importance of both the body and soul in human existence allows us to be open.
The idea of emptiness as nihility is
problematic because it positions "nothingness" as a force that engulfs all meaning and purpose. However, nothingness is not some thing that exists independently of or under us. It is to be understood as something that is self-identical and united to being, instead. It is part reality rather than negating it, as is the case with nihilistic detachment. Existance is about connectedness, and through that, we find meaning. The wrong approach produces disconnection, dehumaniztion and meaninglessness.
Everything is what it is in its own special way and yet it is connected to everything else.
Anyways, I believe how you view the nothingness of existance depends on how you arrived to that position in the first place. Another perspective (for the vedic astrology nonas) is that we can't access KETU without RAHU. The divine exists in the material. Don't be headless or just a head. Awareness is key.

Nona, women in the USA weren't allowed to have a bank account until the 1960s and even during the 60's and early 70's the majority of banks refused to allow women to open their own accounts without their husband's (or father's) signature. It wasn't until 1974 when the Equal Credit Opportunity Act passed that this changed. There's nothing "traditional" about a woman having the right to her own money, or owning her house, or being loved and respected by their husbands: that's why traditional shit is retarded and we are trying to break out of the confines of tradition.

>>1892391Men can’t even tell women’s ages, anon. They guess based on her style and attractiveness, they always think attractive middle aged women are in their 20s.
They swear up and down that they’re biologically driven to prefer teenage girls because they’re “more fertile, petite, and attractive” but in reality, men are subconsciously the most attracted to women in their 30s, because that’s when women are at their peak fertility and have stronger pheromones. Older women who are approaching menopause are more fertile than teenage girls, when teenage girls reproduce it can make them barren because it damages their child bodies too much, and they can’t safely reproduce or produce healthy offspring. We also tend to reach our full stature at 14, so the weird “petite” fetish is made up, or they’re talking about prepubescent girls.
Women age more slowly due to estrogen, so we don’t lose attractiveness with age the way males do, at least not until old age. Men lose attractiveness starting in early adulthood, they peak at 20-25 and then hit the wall. Their insistence that they prefer younger women is a combination of projection, hatred of women and wanting a young one to manipulate, misogyny and trying to degrade women and make us insecure so we settle for losers, and tbh they just meme themselves into agreeing with what other men say

Usually I’ll ask if my hairstyle or the lighting is what made me look older in the second picture, and they’ll deny it and insist that I look old for my age.
The thing is that the second picture where I’m “28” is always the younger picture, usually from when I was a teenager and sometimes both pictures will be from around the same time period. I’m also not 28 kek, it’s years away. It’s just a fun way to troll misogynists and it gets really amusing when I tell them the truth, they get so pissed off. It’s also funny because I have a baby face and men usually assume that I’m younger than I am, when they find out my real age they lose interest so I know they’re straight up lying

>>1893059NTA but it really just depends with your financial background and where you live. For example, when I was in my late teens I moved out of a major city in my country & into a smaller one to attend university. For my first year I received government funding for my education, so that gave me leeway to take care of myself while I found a part-time job. At the time the average 2 bedroom apartment was like $1300 a month, so I found 2 roommates and we rented an apartment together so that we each paid something like $400 dollars. I didn't have a lot of money, but I was content with my living situation and I never went hungry. I started a small gig on the side of my part-time job to make more money for myself, as well as opening an investing account to start buying stocks, and once university ended I was in a financial situation where I moved into another 2 bedroom apartment but this time with just 1 roommate. From there I kept making smart financial decisions and being careful with my money, and by the time I was 25 I had a studio apartment to myself. I think a lot of the "rent is too expensive" stuff you see on social media is because everyone wants to live in the big bustling cities with high COL. Nobody wants to move to small towns or cities with a lower COL because it's not exciting enough for them. Also, a lot of young people are not financially literate and don't even understand how to enter the stock market. I often encounter younger people with some savings in an account, but the money is just sitting there and they aren't investing in anything, and too few young people own stock. I think everyone could benefit from a financial literacy course; in my case, my bank offered me one for free when I inquired about opening an investment account.

>Be born richI come from a lower-middle class background, hence why I received government funding to go to university. It's not true that you have to be rich to make investments, you can start investing with less than $100 like I did. This idea that "oh if you have stocks you must be so rich" is false and it's a part of the poverty mindset that arises from ignorance of the financial system. The trick with investments is to start as soon as you can and to diversify your portfolio with lots of different types of investments. Check with your bank, they may offer free courses in investment like mine.
>Live in a cheap area.Well, yes. If you can't live in a high COL area without being broke, consider moving into an area with a lower COL. If I were to live in a major metropolis in my country, I would be priced out of the rental market and I would probably go from comfortable to impoverished. I decided as an adult to live in a smaller city because I could enjoy my life more and stretch my money farther. Just compare prices between grocers in downtown urban cores to grocers in smaller towns and you can see the difference. Not everyone is destined to live a middle-class lifestyle in the big city.
>Have friends who aren't in a relationship.Your roommates don't have to be your friends, none of mine were. There are loads of roommate websites where people post ads to find roommates, and when I was in university there were even groups for students to find other students in similar situations to find houses/apartments to share. I'd actually argue that the best roommates are the ones in relationships because they can share their own room and you can have one to yourself.

>>1893127>How did you pay to move & how far from your family did you move?When I moved out of my house at age 17, I had been working a part-time job for 2 years at that point so I had about ~1000 dollars of cash saved. It cost me less than 100 dollars to move, as I only had 2 suitcases of things and bought a bus ticket. I moved about 300km away from my family.
>Did you live in a dorm or in an apartment.For my first term of university I lived in a dormitory which was included in the cost of tuition, but I didn't opt-in for the meal plan. In my experience, the meal plan is usually the more expensive "rip off" part of dormitory living. While in the dorms, I lived very frugally to make the most out of my grant money and got my part-time job after about a month, from there I continued to save money and looked at rental websites and roommate websites to gauge how much I'd have to pay in rent and how much I'd have to save; from the dorm I ended up moving into an apartment with 2 roommates by January, just before the start of my second term of my first year of university.
>You're 25 and live in a studio apartment, do you rent it? When are you planning on buying a house?I do rent my current apartment. Before this one, I had live in 2 other apartments with roommates but I wanted to try out living alone for a while. I could have afforded to rent a 1 bedroom, but I decided against it because I wanted to save more money. I don't mind renting currently, but I'd like to own my own home by the time I'm 35 or 40. I don't feel rushed to buy my own home, just because I'm still really young and I haven't really decided where I'd like to own a home yet. For added context my parents are life-long renters themselves.
>Nobody said stocks make you rich.I meant more like, a common misconception that I've heard from a lot of younger financially illiterate people is that you have to have a lot of money to enter the stock market, or that stock markets are for the rich only, whereas I believe that everyone would benefit from owning stock, especially working-class people.
>I have investments, but they don't just give you money to get an apartment.It depends on how you play the market. I was one of the people that benefited from the AMC stock price surge a few years back, and during the pandemic I made a few smart moves when certain companies (looking at you, OCGN). My portfolio has long-term investments that pay dividends, as well as short-term investments that I hold onto just to sell when the time is right. It's a mix of having good long-term stock options as well as playing the market in smart, albeit sometimes risky, ways. I recommend making friends with some people that are very stock aware.
>Most people want to move to cities for job opportunities and cheaper living.There's a difference between small cities with low COL and huge cities with high COL. I live in a city of about 200k, so I have amenities like public libraries, public transport, and a good job market. In the era of remote work, I think more people can get away with living in areas where physical jobs are scarce. From my experience, life in a high COL city is very expensive and when I visit my family in my hometown (high COL major city) I'm surprised by the premiums they seem to pay on groceries especially. One major factor I think that plagues younger people (Millenials and Zoomers) which may constitute an
unpopular opinion is that many people live outside their means and impoverish themselves due to poor money habits. For example, I've never had food delivered to me because IMO food delivery is something that's outside of my means: it's overpriced, it would be a poor financial decision on my part. Yet I notice that a lot of UberEats marketing directly targets the working-class demographic with promises of "convenience." I'm always surprised by people that order delivery food and see it as a comparable option to grocery shopping and preparing their own food. Another example is streaming services; most people my age have Netflix, Hulu, Discovery, etc., and in the end they pay upwards of $50+ per month on streaming services, whereas I torrent all the shows I watch for free and end up saving that money. There are lots of examples I can come up with, but in general I think a lot of younger people choose convenience over proper financial security. Sorry for the long reply, I just wanted to answer all your questions.

I literally blow enough money buying takeout itself, forget about delivery fees.
Unless you can't drive or are too busy to pick up an order yourself (most ubereats customers are just lazy) then you have no reason to do delivery
Maybe I'm a control freak but I also hate the idea of my food cycling through an extra pair of hands and coming cold and soggy if the driver fucks up. I will drive 5-30 minutes there and back and the gas guzzle will be less than delivery fees. The people who get one or two coffee drinks delivered are especially wasteful.

I think I might be "racist" and paternalistic in the sense that I believe certain substances should never have been introduced to certain groups (eg alcohol and refined sugar/bad food to indigenous communities) and should be slowly be legislated and/or aggressively propagandized away, but I don't really care that other groups have it. This is because I've given up hope with the latter, they seem too poisoned. Within their own social structure and framework, they've shown time and time again that they just don't want to let it go and would rather argue about personal freedom (at the expense of society as a whole) instead.
Some are even trying to do it with things like meth and heroin now. They don't even want gun control. They'd prefer to watch their children die for stupid reasons and argue that it's fine. Same goes for people who call having basic principles against blatantly anti-social behaviors/messaging "respectability politics" or "being a puritan". They're not even uneducated, they genuinely think this way. It's become acceptable to intellectualize irresponsibility, and everything just seems hopeless.

When my parents separated he lost his spark for food. I learned very late just how to do basic food prep and I still suck at it, but it's better than nothing.
mostly live off pre packaged stuff, but it's been a vast improvement to my health and finances to eat at home half the week, even when I'm very tempted to go out. The real habit I can't kick is buying tea and sodas.
Food consoomers see their consumption as more viable because it's a temporary indulgence, food is necessary, but it's expensive, especially with recent inflation. I'd still have more respect for them than the cheap shein dollar store plastic crap consoomers though

>>1893835The bullying is based in slavery, anon. There's no real sense to it, it's just racism. Chicken was the only meat readily available to slaves, and after they were freed, malding racists who wanted slavery back started going on about how black people were stupid for enjoying watermelon and relaxation (I'm not kidding).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fried_chicken_stereotype>Since the American Civil War, traditional slave foods like fried chicken, watermelon, and chitterlings have suffered a strong association with stereotypes of African Americans and blackface minstrelsy.[1] The reasons for this are various. Chicken dishes were popular among enslaved people before the US Civil War, as chickens were generally the only animals enslaved people were allowed to raise on their own.[2] Race and folklore professor Claire Schmidt attributes the stereotype both to the popularity of fried chicken in the cuisine of the Southern United States and to a scene from the film The Birth of a Nation in which a rowdy African-American man is seen eating fried chicken in a legislative hall.[3] The stereotype was commercialized for the first half of the 20th century by restaurants like Sambo's and Coon Chicken Inn, which selected exaggerated depictions of Black people as mascots, implying quality by their association with the stereotypehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watermelon_stereotype>The first published caricature of Black people reveling in watermelon is believed to have appeared in Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper in 1869.[2] The stereotype emerged shortly after enslaved people were emancipated after the Civil War.[2] Defenders of slavery used it to portray African Americans as a simple-minded people who were happy when provided with watermelon and a little rest.[3] The slaves' enjoyment of watermelon was also seen by the Southern people as a sign of their own supposed benevolence.[2] The stereotype was perpetuated in minstrel shows often depicting African Americans as ignorant and lazy, given to song and dance and inordinately fond of watermelon.[4]I do want to say it's funny that back then (and even now in the minds of some racists), consuming fresh fruit and meat is considered slave/enslavement-worthy behavior indicative of indolence and simple-mindedness. In the present day, "normal person food" without any racial baggage is just pure, absolute slop like picrel from Nick Fuentes and refined sugar garbage.

>>1894350I love that you make this generalization when I put emphasis on how it's not impossible, but simply that most women end up with men not at all on the same page as them and putting WAY too much energy into one man in their life and obsessing way too much over the status of being in a hetero relationship. so, it's like a gamble with negotiable payoff. I don't mind listening to women that have been in an egalitarian relationship with a doting, attractive, emotionally intelligent man that's great in bed for several years…but that's unlikely. a lot of women end up staying with men they're sexually repulsed by in hopes of getting crumbs of affection from him, or with a man that pretty much treats her like she's interchangeable with other women. how many women convinced they're in a good relationship still feel that way in a few years? at least act as though it's good to have an exit strategy just in case things go south.
>>1894360it's very cute that you think most men would stop and be more discerning if they knew the truth–as if it isn't blatantly obvious already that most women in those videos aren't showing any sign of enthusiastic consent and any semi-decent person would pick up on that.

I just used it because that's how my brain was and eventually on my own realized what I was consuming. do you believe most men are hyper-conscientious about what they consume and would stop if some porn stars on social media started being honest? hm? have you seen the honest porn stars with trauma being well received by men on social media? because I certainly haven't. I've seen several witch hunts backed by millions of men. I'm not saying that some porn stars not being honest isn't contributing to the problem, but that it's mostly women that are in fact against the industry and very few men are listening because they don't want to go against other men or what effectively benefits men in general (the subjugation/humiliation of women).

It's not the same to hate a cute well behaved golden retriever puppy to hating a literal killing machine with an angry nature 24/7 in their simple animal mind, bred by stupid moids. In Brazil they have a local breed of dog that is infamously known to have been made just to kill slaves trying to run away from plantations. It's still one of the most violent breeds in the world, banned in many countries. This is part of the sad history of dog breeding. They weren't always just cute companions, really. Pitbulls are just the top of the iceberg. None of these dogs should exist.

>>1895415the "people cheat because they're insecure" feels like and a psyop to infantize cheating…but, I think the only infantile part is to blame cheating mostly on insecurity. it's fanfiction-tier just world fallacy; the idea that there must be some special, vulnerable reason behind all terrible acts. pure speculation: I wonder if a part of this fragile thinking comes from women that are so terrified of someone being able to apathetically wrong her. maybe the idea that he is the actual "loser" reassures them in a karmatic way, so it's pre-emptive overcorrection. or maybe it just makes them feel smart, who fucking knows.
note that a huge chunk of cheaters are just socio/psychopaths, many of which literally don't give a fuck. cheating out of contempt is also a thing. there's also research showing how men that sleep around a lot prior to a relationship are more likely to cheat. etc. it goes on and on. individuals cheat for different reasons, but the main constant is a lack of empathy and low morality.

Most males are chronically insecure and never happy with what they've got, no amount of validation and asskissing will be enough and I cringe whenever an anon starts salivating over a hot guy. Cheating is just a part of this. Men whine on Reddit about not getting compliments or attention from girls but the moment you tell a man anything nice he will either a) assume you want to fuck him even when you're just being polite, and/or b) get a big head and start acting like he's too good for you. I hang around a lot of upper middle class "hot" guys due to family ties and can't stand them. I don't actually know if any of them cheat but I wouldn't be surprised. They're so cocky and overconfident, love to brag and flirt with girls even when taken because "they're just being friendly". No fucking thanks. Don't feed the beasts, they have plenty of ego already.

No. 1896188
>>1896185Some do, sure, but some don’t. Same as women. Some like tattoos and some don’t. I find tattoos ugly and am more attracted to people without them. Besides, men especially hate cheugy, tacky, unoriginal shit like swallows and roses (even though all they get is shitty tribal prints and koi fish, they’re hypocrites)
The truth is, they really don’t care about anything as much as they let on. They’re willing to overlook tattoos and body counts and even past sex work as long as they get to fuck someone their friends also think is hot.

nonnie is probably joking but as for my experience, I spent two weeks completely unable to do anything but standing up to shit really quick and just lie down, breathing like a struggling pug, barely eating because of lack of strength, with the most pain on my throat and lungs that I’ve ever experienced by far. It mystified me because I was isolating and blah blah. There was no way I could’ve caught anything, I was strictly interacting with my mom, who also happened to be sick. After the first week of pretty much crying from pain when trying to breath, she confessed to me she was sneaking out to parties, and that her friend group had all tested positive for COVID and were pretty much berriden as well. Fun times.

>>1896298You're right that "sex work" is too broad, but even something like OnlyFans is still sexual coercion. If she wouldn't take her clothes off for free, but does when you pay her, that is not genuine consent. It is not possible to have "full control" when you are beholden to your customers and your body is the product. Obviously, it carries less risk than prostitution, but it is still unethical and any man who supports it is evil.

I feel there is not much acknowledgement for the absolute brilliant broadcasting there was for kids in the late 90s and early 2000s in the Uk. Idk usa scheduling. Weirdo kids watched cartoon network it was only OK to switch over for Dexter's Laboratory or Johnny Bravo. Disney Channel and Cartoon Disney were day time viewing. Nick Toons had the superior cartoons compared to Cartoon network. Nickelodeon was better to watch in the evening or night when Disney was running movies. Nick had rugrats, doug, ren and stimpy, rocko's modern life, wild Thornburys, rocket power, Sabrina, Saved by the Bell, Clarissa Explains it All, Renford Rejects, Disney also had Doug, Recess, mickey mouse and the gang, Teen Angel, Boy Meets World, Lizzie McGuire, Hannah Montana. What a time and there were presenters in between the shows. Simon Amstell was either Disney or Nick. Nick Berry who I still listen on Absolute was on Nickelodeon I had a crush on Neil from Disney

>>1897169Men literally age faster because testosterone accelerates the aging process and wreaks havoc on the body, similarly to drug/alcohol use and sun exposure and bad health habits, so even if males avoid those things they’ll still age at the speed of light. That’s why when TIF’s start taking testosterone they suddenly get fine lines and wrinkles and their skin starts sagging and deflating and their hair gets dry and thin.
Estrogen on the other hand has protective properties, which benefits the body similarly to things like having a lot of antioxidants and staying extremely hydrated. That’s why women always look younger than their male peers, no matter what whining males say to cope.
One of the biggest differences between male and female anatomy is skin, the structure is completely different, you can look it up. Female skin is known for being soft and smooth and pretty, while male skin is course and rough and dry. That’s why males always look haggard, because skin is one of the main indicators of age. Women have soft, supple skin which indicates youthfulness, attractiveness, and good health. Men don’t have that, and they can’t stand it kek.

The relationship I've noticed over the years on here and elsewhere is that women outside of Asia who are really into Japanese and Korean things are usually slutty. I'm not smart enough to explain why this is though. But it's something I've noticed. I remember I had a passing phase where I liked gyaru and other j fashion comms and I swear every single person I met through discord servers was a sex worker, had been a sex worker, or just slept with a different guy every weekend.
The worst were the ones who actually lived in Japan. Some were heavily in debt and would sleep with a different Japanese guy every couple of weeks, then complain about how bad they were in bed but still keep doing it. The thing that always made me unable to compute was why they stayed in Japan (and Korea to a lesser extent). It seemed to make them more miserable and there was really nothing for them over there.
Curious as to whether anyone else ever noticed this.

I still watch anime occasionally but the weird sexual behavior of the men and women who are into Japanese media has put me off interacting with larger communities based around anime, jpop etc. it's a shame because I like some j-rock and some j-fashion but every westerner I meet who also has these interests is an insane bippie who thinks living dirt poor in Japan is a prize.

Women's love for their male relatives is not untainted by patriarchy, unfortunately.
Male socialization makes men sexist in general and male suicides are no different, some were violent and
abusive. By celebrating male suicides it's not a diss or denigrating the loss of individual women or their grief. Men also threaten suicide and/or actually kill themselves to traumatize the women in their lives, like a recent anon said her father did this to her mother. Very sad.

>>1899791>Moids are more openly self loathing and their lack of optimism means they cope lessWhat I personally see is that men of this kind are often really bad at self-regulation, and easily slip into negativity. No matter how you react, as long as you listen to them they will vent and complain with no limit. If you offer a solution it suddenly turns out it's not that bad and then the coping begins. But they will complain again later about the same exact thing. It's just draining. And it's most often one-sided, too, because they're the biggest
victims that act like they're cursed or something. They don't really want to talk and to listen when it's about you. Most often they suggest doing something (not together) to distract yourself, and it's even worse if you're known to have some kind of mood disorder because then all of your negative feelings and emotions are going to be pathologized and trivialized. Just go for a walk regularly and take a magical pill. You have these (any) thoughts because your brain is crazy. Poof! It's that simple, no need to have a conversation about it.
I guess we had different experience, but I prefer to talk to women. Not all of them, sure, but most are more understanding.
>>1899829Anon I had such teachers and no one liked them, even the students that weren't loud-mouthed or

Honestly they didn't seem like very happy or successful people either. I'm not saying you should kiss misbehaving students in the ass but it just won't work the way you describe. I had teachers that dealt with it way better: one would subtly mock students if they said/did dumb things (I don't mean occasionally making mistakes or something) and it wasn't openly rude but I imagine it was pretty embarrassing because they couldn't really respond aggressively to it but it made them feel dumb, also other students would start laughing or looking at each other smiling, and there were a few cases when students got mad and left the class kek. The other one was a young small woman that was very professional at all times but she had a death stare and she could also make you feel dumb (when it was justified) with her tone, slightly raised brows or certain reasonable questions and short comments. Imo it has much greater effect when you're very good with boundaries and stay composed but don't try to be motherly and accepting.

>>1900188So do you think sperm just magically appears out of nowhere? Also, this is an unpopular opinion which is why I’m posting it in the correct thread, it’s not an invitation for a debate. I also said that I think it’s crucial for men and women to experience
healthy relationships which each other, and it is completely possible. However like I said, many men in the current age are completely incompetent and have been rewarded for such behavior their whole lives which is why they make no effort to behave in even a mildly companionable way to a female counterpart.
No. 1900207
>>1900199I understand if youve lived in a culture where you’re able to behave in that way with no kind of punishment or reaction from your family members and community, but infidelity and divorce is just not on the table for everyone, especially when you’re with a man who is attracted to just you and the relationship you have with him. I’ll say it again; I am saying that women
need and deserve healthy relationships with men. Not just a relation to a man who you don’t love or doesn’t treat you well.

>>1900198The vast, vast majority of people still settle down with a long-term partner. It doesn't matter if that's a marriage on paper or not. People having fewer kids is the consequence of female emancipation and the increasingly shitty economy, housing market and general future prospects.

>>1900207with the chances of this being so low you're being cruel by framing it as a "need". you are also ignoring women that have other priorities in life because you are a misogynist. women are very much capable of making strong bonds with someone that isn't a male partner. you simply value the social status of a woman being with a man sexually than fostering other kinds of love and companionship. also
>>1900224 makes little sense. ah, yes, having a baby in dystopia. that's egoistic and cruel, also is a form of catastrophization. I guess if women and men don't fuck 24/7 all life dies too. nothing you said is even reflected in nature either. for example bonobos, relatively genetically close to us, are more likely to form long-lasting all female groups to defend against males or other predators than pair bond with males with sex being relatively brief. it's very unlikely in cave times people were monogamously lovey dovey. where is proof that animals "need" a partner of the opposite sex forever outside of a patriarchal context?

>>1900250Anon, you can support a family of three on $27 an hour easily, sole income too.
Let's break this down:
You have ~3500-3800/month after taxes and insurance, depending on the state. 3 bedroom homes are less than ~$300k in most states and medium-sized cities. If you wait till interest rates drop to 5%, you could probably get a less than $1400/month mortgage (maybe as low as $1000). Food for 3 is probably ~700/month, assuming one partner stays home and cooks. One working partner means one car, which would probably cost around $400/month for the loan and insurance. Utilities, property tax, and home insurance will probably run something like $600-700/month.
Any job that pay $27 an hour probably has a good 401k program, so your retirement is sorted. You now have $300-$500 at a minimum left each month for saving or recreation. Also, you could cheap on on any of these (cheaper car, smaller house, etc) and probably scrape back hundreds per month.
No. 1900324
>>1900316Anon, what are you trying to buy every month that's over $500? Are you a gacha game whale or something?
The $27 an hour is also assuming you're at the
beginning of your career, because your wages will rise over time.

>>1900318yep. note the various neuroscientific and physiological research on strong female friendships can lead to physical benefits for women, the main reason as if this isn't more platformed is because society does not defer much status to such relationships over sexual ones with men nor does it model them much so less women center them. none of this is revolutionary. so, I wonder if the other nonna might have had a really terrible life outside of her allegedly decent relationship, which probably hasn't even lasted longer than 5 years.
