[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t buy that women who have never married are focusing on the “unpaid labor” aspect. That’s more of an issue that arises in marriage later on, after kids arrive. I think the likelier explanations are increased working areas, fewer social interactions generally (we see this in studies of Americans having fewer and fewer friendships, some of which would of course lead to romance), economic instability and fewer college educated, emotionally stable and well paid eligible men.  More than ever, women are looking for income and education in men.[/quote]
You don’t think young women grow up in this dynamic? Seeing their working mom slave away while dad does $hit all sitting on the couch? Gmafb. You are not giving women enough credit here. Are you a man?[/quote]

I’m a woman of a young adult daughter. She and girlfriends absolutely want marriage but they have high standards. They want smart, ambitious, college educated. Guys like that have no problem finding women but there are more women on that category than men.[/quote]
ie, women have stepped up their game, but men have not.  It's why we have incels.[/quote]

As a mom also of sons - how do we fix this?[/quote]

Incels are just guys who can’t get laid. About a third are on the spectrum. More than half are left of center politically. About 45 percent are not white. Most are not narcissists or psychopaths (if they were they could figure out how to charm their way to sex) but are instead perpetual victims.

Confusing and conflating these sad sacks with red pill or Andrew Tate types is just like when adults who don’t know better freaked out about gangsta rap or video games.[/quote]
Lol you just made all this up. Get over yourself, trying to blame this on the left and minorities 😂[/quote]

Blame guys who can’t get laid on the left and minorities? Thats what the “this” you describe is.[/quote]
