MGTOW & WGTOW

[Gnarwhal]

I've been married, I am currently single. I don't think less of marriage just because mine failed. It's failure is not an indictment on the institution of marriage, nor should it be. I'm doing my thing but I'm open to meeting someone, getting remarried, and starting a family if that's something that's ahead of me.

Yeah, sadly we still live in a society where gender roles are present. Even many liberals encourage them despite their objections to the contrary. Women who take steps to protect themselves from harm are seen as brave victims who are overcoming undesirable odds. While if men do the same they are viewed as creeps and "manchildren". The latter term that should be seen as sexist to anyone who honestly cares about treating the genders the same.



Definitely depends on the company you follow, I know plenty of anti-feminist women who are totally sympathetic with MGTOWs.



I've heard of a few horror stories like this. In some jurisdictions if you live with a single mother and her children for an extended period of time you can become liable for their monetary wellbeing.

As for me I have no business dating single mothers. The major reason being is that I do not want children. Even after that, the idea of raising another man's offspring makes me cringe. The thought of another man raising my kids enrages me and I don't want to be that man to other guys.

I'm' coming across women in my age bracket 40+...that if they never had kids, they STILL want them. Although I'd much prefer to date someone without kids, since I don't want any (I'm in my mid-40s now)...I am kind of wondering why women even their 40s still desire it. There's a big risk there.

It's like I may be better off dating single moms with 2 kids, so I know they don't want more of them. But hten you have all that drama that comes with it.

So its a catch 22

Hmmm.. think biologically women may have more of a need to raise children than men. The bond between mother and child can be very strong and very psychologically rewarding. Women who go through life without any offspring might be feeling a mid-life type of crisis when they reach above the age of 40.
