You know, a link will still 404 no matter how many times I click on it.

Or maybe like this? An article about how when the woman makes more money,

http://www.forbes.com/sites/samanth...er-who-makes-more-money-in-your-relationship/

The content of that article might seem like some sort of God-sent revelation to you, but it isn't really to me. I'm not saying you're the only man out there who has an inferiority complex or even that a minuscule number of men share your views, but you certainly don't represent all men, so please don't try.

Your wilful ignorance is offensive, not necessarily your opinion. An opinion can be changed in light of new information.

Considering that you're not vaguely interested in having your opinion reflect the realities of our world more accurately, perhaps you should find a forum where the average poster agrees with everything you have to say.

Debate me, do not insult me.

Your wilful ignorance is offensive,

I honestly do not care.

I honestly do not care.

Then why bother posting.

If you disagree with the idea that college educated women may be pricing themselves our a family please post your opinions.

All you have said so far is my opinion does not represent you, which is fine, I do not care.

I already have done, and if your memory is so short then perhaps you should re-read the thread. I don't care if your opinion does not represent me, your opinion is precisely that and you're free to have it, just don't claim that it does represent me, or that it represents the opinion of most/all men.

If most men had the same opinion as you, it would be to the detriment of society (because it would encourage women not to fulfil their potential); instead of progressing from the ideas that women should do as they're told, stay in the kitchen, marry whom they're supposed to, dress conservatively or alluringly when men require it, society would start running back in that direction.

I disagree with the idea that college educated women are pricing themselves out of a family. Source: virtually all my female friends are college educated, every woman in my family is college educated and my wife is college educated. Some of these college educated women earn more than their college educated husbands as well. So basically every example I have of "families" involves a situation where the woman is college educated, and most of them have been pretty happy by any estimation. Your opinion doesn't represent me, nor anyone in my life.

If you're unwilling to listen to people who disagree with you, why post on a messageboard at all (or one that allows different opinions, at any rate)? Go talk to yourself in the mirror if all you want is your own opinion parroted back at yourself. Otherwise, you may face criticism for your opinions. That's how free speech works. If you can't handle that, then you aren't mature enough to handle discussion, and you should stop posting inflammatory nonsense and getting upset when people disagree with you.

The example you presented is a very small sampling of the population.

What about the 84% of surveyed women who said they wished they could stay home and raise a family?

What about your wife? Do you and her have children?

Testosterone has collapsed in recent generations, making men less attractive

Careers are depriving women of energy and families of resources for having children

Rulers are determined to depress our fertility, and women follow the rules

Yea second shift much man? Women still end up doing the majority of the on-demand parenting (food, cuts and scrapes, doctor visits, paperwork, cleaning, etc)

Good for you finding a whole family of women who work 40 hours a week and also do 40 hours a week of housework but everyone else in the world usually has to compromise somewhere.

Most women do not want a man who is less them, and most men know it.

I think it was Chris Rock who said women are the only reason men do anything. Men would live in cardboard boxes if women were willing to have sex in them :biggrin:

 

[soulcougher73]

And the whole argument in favor of women working would probably make more sense if it actually benefited women:

This is probably one of the few times ill agree with crazy boy here. But almost every women i know at work would rather be home raising their children than working. And this is in the engineering field. In a way the fight for women to work has backfired on them. I believe our society was better off when 1 parent was at home and one worked.

Best selling vehicle in America for the past forever: Ford F150. Yes most men have fragile egos. Ask a man if he would ever own a poodle and he'll say "I don't want to look faggy" or something equally stupid.

That bit about the poodle was brilliant.

Well, YEAH. As long as the box kept our big screen TV, guns and gaming computer safe and dry.

Rita Rudner said single men don't live like people, they live like bears with furniture.
