What's the end game of this plan?


Children growing up in broken homes are easier to separate from their parents. Angry children who hate their parents are much easier to mold into good Marxist footsoldiers.

Pretty sure most of the children without parents are not contributing to the capitalist cause so not sure what your point is. Who is to benefit from less GDP and less tax revenue? Doesnt seem like thats in anyones best interest no matter what side of the aisle you are on

I believe this happened in the Mouse Utopia Experiment.
The mice were given everything and eventually stopped reproducing

Probably has something to do with the fact that a lot of guys don’t want to lower their standards for women they know they aren’t attracted to. Any guy can lower his standards and get with a below-average looking woman, it’s not that hard. But to get a woman that’s insanely hot and be truly attracted to is hard to do since other guys will be hitting on her



I'm 43, never married and I legitimately get depressed whenever I gather the nerve to start dating. Actually getting the dates is not a problem.

But invariably I'll have a couple of dates with women that I would consider to be only somewhat attractive physically, but I'm no Don Juan myself so whatever.

I try to go in with an open mind but these women are just like the more attractive women as far as attitude goes. It was one thing dealing with these types of women at 23, another thing entirely when they're 20 years older and have the same attitude that they did back then. The "not lowering standards" part comes from the fact that the lower standard still thinks they're the upper standard.

Divorce laws favor women. Change them to be more equitable and you'll see these stats change.


Totally agree. Women want equal rights but when this pops up the females clear the room pretty quick.

Highly doubt it dies out, look how popular the character of Beth Dutton was amongst women.



You are correct. And if I'm thinking of the same Yellowstone character...Beth would be a fling target at best. A long term relationship with someone like that would be like being married to a bag of rattlesnakes.

Women like that either panic and settle, end up being alone with a bunch of cats, or get married to their career.

Keep in mind I've only seen maybe 3 Yellowstone episodes.

Absolutely, females (in general) expect the man to outearn them. Therefore, the more they make, the more they expect out of a man. And during good times a man should be well off relative to his peers.


Women that earn more than their husbands have an astoundingly high divorce rate. When her paycheck becomes bigger than yours, it's a shot across the bow that she's about to "outgrow you", and move on to a man that makes more than her.
