You make it sound like all single mothers deliver top quality parenting. A single mother can also be a mediocre parent that saddles her child with all kinds of trauma. She can get ill. She can die early. She can decide parenting isn't all that. She can resent the limitations parenting places on her. Women aren't saints; they are equally affected by human vices. |
S let me get this straight, you’re divorcing someone bc they won’t do 50% of the childcare but then complaining when they legally receive 50% of the childcare? |
They can lose their inheritance to another (half) sibling if mom decides to single-mother procreate again. |
As long as you understand that what you're advocating for is a very unattractive option to most of womenfolk. |
These articles are so flawed.
For example, most divorces occur when people are relatively younger. At that point the woman may outearn the man. But with time and children, most men outearn most women, by a lot. So if they divorced in their 60s you’d see a very different picture about where the net worth came from. Another absurdity is saying that someone losing a percentage of joint assets is worse off than if they had never had those assets in the first place. |
I’m not divorcing anyone because, as I’ve said, I applied rigorously high standards to my choice of a spouse despite the DCUM logic that women should be happy with anyone. You don’t have to divorce anyone if you choose a spouse who expects to contribute OR you forgo a spouse entirely and thereby don’t lose any custody to your kids. |
Liar. No one claimed such a thing. |
If the wife doesn’t have perky tits and a mouth like a Hoover, what does she bring to the table? Same exact concept. It’s disgusting. |
Why would any highly attractive and accomplished man donate sperm to you or any other complete stranger? Seriously how many highly attractive and accomplished men do you even know and why do you think they would want you? They are most likely married and do not want some average Jane having their kid. Sperm donors are usually just some guy off the street who has to fill out an application and background info. There is no background check or independent verification of donor. Also sperm donors have been sued and force to pay child support. |
This is absolutely dystopian. I’m assuming you consider yourself liberal. I hope that you embrace the mantle of destroying the family unit, disassembling society to its component parts, and radically remaking the world, when (what I used to think were) wild eyed conservatives accuse you of it. I’m starting to understand the existential threat posed by liberalism as much as I understand the threat from nihilist populist authoritarians. |
I would take a mediocre husband over being a rich single parent anytime. |
So are men. |
I do. |
Just saying that the highest-IQ, most highly-educated countries (particularly educated women) on Earth have the highest % of childlessness & singlehood. |
I’m not obligated to make babies & “continue the human race.” I would never give birth no matter what. I hope you realize that. |
