Me being or not being of a particular denomination of a particular version of a particular religion has no bearing on the accuracy of my statement.A true born-again Christian would not talk like that. I rest my case.

This thread is a good example of the problems with Christian male singleness and why many can’t find a partner. Dumb thoughts beget dumb statements which do little to help. Jumping on the patriarchy bandwagon won’t make you more appealing. Patriarchal types like masculine men. Not cry babies, finger pointers, or parroters from YouTube.
She rejects you because you’re weak, effeminate, or overly emotional. Some of you need to dial back the complaints and woe is me spiel. You sound like women.

What are you talking about?
Most women aren’t attracted to men who spend their time:
Complaining
Bemoaning their fate
Emoting
Aka… the threads in the Singles Forum. It makes you look weak and like crybabies. Women want strength. Not overly emotional men.

I agree with the no complaining or whining part. But the idea that men should be stoic rather than show their vulnerability only perpetuates the problems of toxic masculinity. Such ideas and attitudes are hurting all of us.
Instead of telling men what they need to do to "find a woman", tell men how to love themselves and be okay with their feelings. Teach men that it's okay to feel weak and that they don't have to put on a strong front all the time. That it's okay to cry, it's okay to show vulnerability, it's okay to feel their feelings and seek out help.
Behind every machismo tough guy act is a hurt and frightened little boy who doesn't know how to feel their feelings in a healthy way. All they know is to "be a man" and it's poisoning them.

I haven’t been without a relationship since I was a teenager but I still haven’t figured out what women want. Good luck with that.I think that men who find themselves without relationships should take a good look at themselves and figure out what women want that they aren’t providing.
If women want strength, they should hit the gym.Most women aren’t attracted to men who spend their time:

I'm easy to understand. I want men toI haven’t been without a relationship since I was a teenager but I still haven’t figured out what women want. Good luck with that.

My wife told me early in our marriage, 39 years ago, that if I showed too much emotionalism, it would frighten her. Just a few weeks ago, after a crisis with our daughter, she mentioned how much she has depended all these years on my calmness under pressure.
I think overt emotionalism in men does unnerve women, and every study and survey bears that out. Maybe it's because they worry subconsciously if a man can't control his sorrow or his angst...he might not be able to control his anger, either.
This does not mean a man isn't allowed to leak out a man-tear at a sad movie ending, or even a sob at his mother's funeral. But a man who can't control his negative emotions is a problem to women. He should be able to say, "I've got an issue, but I've also got a plan to handle it."
And if he does have to do some ugly crying, that's what his male friends are for. It's been noted as a modern problem that many men don't have male friends these days.
I feel sorry for men. They have two choices. Be masculine as they should be or be scared of the abcd group. Everything is blamed on men why. They haven't changed, society has. God made man, woman was made from man for man. Ppl need to quit defending what is sinful and start listening to the word of God.Hey guys,
This is a connection that many people fail to account to. Once you start going the Feminist route that leads to an excessive identification with one's own gender. To the point where some women in a feminist society will only interact with women have have relationships with them as opposed to men. Thereby, choosing the "lesbian lifestyle."
Moreover, many of those women have Androphobia, where they see men as bad, and also they don't want to have anything to do with Straight men. This Androphobia is spread out to the rest of society where men are portrayed as evil, dangerous or stupid.
Unlike what some Liberals think that women in such societies would create, "Sexual Abundance" towards them. Its the opposite, those societies have, "Sexual Scarcity" hence the "Incel Phenomenon." Where some women in those "fear men" and it causes many guy/incels to have no relationships..etc.
Now, I'm not identifying with anyone and saying, "Incels are justified" rather I'm pointing it out, that it seems that in such a society where gender relations are poor something along those lines would happen.
What do you guys think?
