I have too much going on in my life to feel I need to be responsible for engaging with another woman daily. Lots of times I just like my own peace. Not having to text, having to hang out. I want that at times, but it's just not something I want every day, more like 1 or 2 or 3 days a week I'd like to hangout or text.

This is laughable.
I know multiple extremely high net worth individuals who kept themselves in shape, didn’t run around and were “reasonable” spouses (men and women) who were cheated on or dropped for reasons like “I need to find myself” or “I just don’t feel the same way anymore” or even “sorry you caught me with my personal trainer, but it’s actually your fault because _____”.
The most common reason for the guy getting dropped were business setbacks or the woman losing weight and getting hit on and falling in love with the new found attention and she’d be gone to the next thing like he never even existed.
People are crazy and 4th wave feminism and political schisms have made it 100x worse.

meh. Sure, it helps. If you have little man syndrome and are insecure about your height you won't do well but plenty of short guys end up with quality women.

Just my $0.02, but being equals is kind of the problem in society. When they both do everything problems occur.
My wife and I built something together because we have very clearly defined roles in our house and we each own our respective roles.
What does she bring the table? Literally everything I don't, so it works great.

My point is was and remains that regardless of personal values and accomplishments men (and women) can find themselves divorced.
Even the “quality” women you reference can change, evolve or go through hormonal changes due to menopause and perimenopause that cause them to become different people.
This leaves a guy who married “quality” girl dealing with an entitled smoke breathing dragon at 45 who got accustomed to a high level lifestyle and started to view the guy as a meal ticket within a transactional relationship rather than a loving, caring and symbiotic partnership.
Sometimes the change is due to their social network influencing them, sometimes the reasons are just personal, but the person someone marries at 25 isn’t always who someone is married to 10-20 years down the road.

To me unless you find a true diamond in the rough, marrying one nowadays is too big a risk.
Look I’ve been out of the dating game for a long time (Married for nearly 13 years, dated for 1.5 before that), is it really this bad that finding a compatible, supportive partner is impossible, or does this website let echo chambers sway our opinion of women so much that the posters think all women suck.
In my circle of friends and the parents of my kids friends, I do not know more than 2 that sound as miserable as the posters make everyone woman sound like.
Am I just that insulated?

If she is a good woman and that includes women that work, then she is bringing a lot to the relationship.

It doesn't happen as often as it did 20 or so years ago....it was very common up until about 2000 or so. Thankfully it isn't acceptable any longer although it still happens.

Besides sex and being “supportive” when she’s not bitching, what do they bring to the table?
Less itching, twitching and stitching.

Do you think women are happier in traditional societies where traditional gender roles are enforced as opposed to a Western liberal society where egalitarianism is the norm? I honestly don't know the answer, but the number of women in this country with a diagnosed mental illness is staggering.
I don't know the answer either but I think it is probably based on the individual woman...some would prefer a traditional gender roll, some would prefer some sort of combination between traditional and modern and some would prefer modern roles. I do think women and men both in the US, especially younger men and women, are very unhappy because they are not coupling off and procreating as biology demands we do. I sincerely think its a problem. Material possessions and wealth are not normal, having kids is....and we place way to much emphasis on the former and tend to dismiss the latter....

The family court has been specifically designed to take away men's rights and force them into indentured service.
I also think family court is a reaction to men leaving or having multiple families in the past.
quote:values start in the home at birth, college students shouldn’t be so gullible - college adds on to the poor parenting of everyone gets a trophy and parents who are so full of themselves that they don’t pay attention to their kids. I think that college influencing kids is more of an excuse rather than an actual reason.
Colleges and universities are built to isolate women and exclude men.

Another feminist talking point, repackaged for males. These threads are always littered with feminist ideology. It’s hilarious.

I wasn't responding to your comments unless you're also wadewilson,
But good to know I guess.

Most of the good women who are none of the above got scooped up years ago. The men who either didn't care, weren't ready to date, or couldn't bag them just missed their opportunity.
Underrated comment so far.

I guess I found a diamond.
for me it's frequent sex, constant support, voice of reason, does most of the indoor housekeeping, cooks 4 or 5 nights per week, reminds me of appointments, makes my appointments for me, an extra income, keeps me from becoming completely feral. She's made almost every part of my life better. I guess the only part that isn't better is that I don't hunt or fish as much. This isn't because she complains about how much I do it, it's because I like staying home and being around her.
Please please tell me you also do a lot of things for her as well.

LL is right here. The issues are even more exacerbated in the areas where most posters live: the South (in general) and Baton Rouge (specifically). Most people in the South marry young, and most young women who didn’t, leave after college. Once you’re post-college/grad school aged, the dating pool shrinks enormously. Pretty much just single moms and self-saboteurs left at that point. The good ones got scooped up or left for greener pastures.
