Men have been disincentivized to "marry down" since no-fault divorce bankrupts so many successful men.

Yup.

And beware the chick who is going through a custody fight or has kids starting school.

You'll get the privilege of taking all that on and getting dumped the year after they graduate.

Are women really attracted to pussy hat wearing feminist men or do they like that they can dominate the soys.



No they are not. They say they are, but they really aren't. Women settle for these men, they dont choose them. At the very least they know they can whip these weak pathetic men and get these men to worship the ground they walk on(which also is a major turn off for women)

You either live in an unhealthy part of the country, have interesting tastes, or are quite young yourself. Most 20 year olds still have a bit of baby fat and hardly a thought in their head. A 30 year old woman in good shape with a head on her shoulders is far more attractive than your average 20 year old. If you are still in your 20s, it’s normal for you to not think so, but I think most 35+ men would agree

alimony and child support judgements have men walking away from marriage.

And the age of men marrying is getting older while their brides are getting younger - and most execute a prenup.

If a woman is not married by 26, her odds of marrying plummet and if she does marry, her odds of divorce skyrocket.

No we wouldn’t. If I was single now, I’d be looking at as close to the half my age plus seven formula as I could get. And so would everyone else.

Exactly Robert, I read this entire thread and all these wanna be intellectuals tried to bloviate about a very simple topic.

Men like vagina
Women like mammon.

Basically, quality women (IQ/looks) now can get high powered jobs and because they only marry up, the pool has shrunk.

yeah 100%

also marriage is becoming a behavior of the well off/educated, so that shrinks all pools dramatically as well

that sociological gap is a ticking time bomb, but for another thread

What planet do you live on?


Men of all ages are attracted most to women in their early 20s

Scroll down to the graphs and see for yourself.

I hate to say that I believe in the whole "misery loves company" concept but I don't feel sorry for women at all. They did it to themselves and this whole thing hits home for me.

I'm not a wealthy man by any means. I make around $42,000/yr. but I have relatively few expenses. Car is paid off, condo is split between my parents and I (I live in Florida so they do the snowbird thing about 2 months out of the year, I live alone the other 10 months) and while I don't have a lot of toys I do live a pretty good life. I actually do save some of my money and also save enough to take 2 vacations and 2 - 3 weekend trips a year. Needless to say though I'm single.

I'm average looks, probably a 6 or 7. I am in shape but on the shorter side. The point being is having average looks and a blue collar salary makes me absolutely toxic to women.

I think it's pathetic that men are criticized for being attracted to women based on looks when women are just as guilty of being attracted to men based on their bank accounts. Of course in the feminists society only men are criticized.

I love the fact that women are essentially screwing themselves when it comes to relationships. As its been established all women expect to "marry up" and those days are over. A lot of women in this country are going to have a simple choice in the near future, marry down to someone blue collar or stay single their whole lives. That's what feminism has brought them.

Heck I'd love to see men in this country abandon women completely. With no fault divorce laws way too many men are at risk. Men who can afford to need to go overseas, particularly to Asia or Eastern Europe and find a real woman. There sure as heck aren't many of them here or in Western Europe anymore.

I'd be curious to find out what you think the sociological consequences are going to be both short term and long term.

I'm guessing you're mostly concerned that it creates a permanent ruling class and a permanent under class? Where the kids born to wealthy parents have such a significant advantage even at birth (never mind during the school years) that kids born to working class parents don't have a chance?

This is why Hallmark Channel Christmas movies are so hilarious to me. They’re essentially a parody of feminism. In every movie, the woman has a high-powered demanding career in the big city and gives it up to be with the rugged blue collar man from her home town who usually has a cute kid or a dog.
