They call us Gold Diggers, I call them Soul Diggers.

Dont call a 16 year old a women. We get forced to mature young enough already. She was just a little girl. He knocked up a little girl

In two instances men asked me why i didn't want children (i just don't want to) they told me they couldn't wait to have kids and take them on car rides. I told them the difference was they will only have to care about the fun stuff when and if they are around, for us women the scenario is completely different. The last thing that comes into my mind when thinking about children is damn car rides. That's how you know their perception of reality is fucked

I had a boss grilling me for my home life getting in the way of work while he has a stay at home wife doing ABSOLUTELY everything for him. She even brings food to him at work every day. He doesnât even have to think about lunch. Unbelievable. If I had a wifeâŠ. All the things I could accomplish

"Good luck being single," they say... so important you talk about the solitude, because the woman in a bad relationship is LONELY.

My male friend tried taking issue with advice for women to not chase men. I knew right then and there he didn't know what he was talking about.

Using women for their unpaid labor and the fact that we are trained from birth to serve basically completely UNPAID REGARDLESS OF COUNTRY OF BIRTH!!

Also, heâs being praised for being so brave and determined for saving money by couch surfing⊠meanwhile, most women wouldnât even feel safe or be safe doing that. Male privilege 101

Iâm a woman, almost 25 and havenât been in a relationship in over three years because of my dad. My dadâs indigenous cultural practices set an example for me and my siblings about what good men will do for their partners. My parents have been together for over 31 years (married for over 24). And throughout my life my dad has shown me and my siblings that men who actually LOVE their wives will make sacrifices for them. My dad became a stay at home dad while my mom built her now very successful business from the ground up. He cooked and cleaned for the house and would always make sure to have my momâs favorite show on before she got home so they could watch it together. So when I started learning about traditional gender roles in school I asked my dad why he was doing âwomenâs workâ and my dad said âin my tribe men are the providers.â This comment confused me until I got older and started learning about how âprimitiveâ Native American culture was portrayed in American education. I asked about the sexism and my dad laughed and said âremember when I told you about men being providers?â I said yes and then he said. âThe reason men hunted and women didnât, was because men are seen as expendable, women are see as invaluable.â That changed me in a profound way to this day and because of this mindset, I refuse to settle for a man who sees women as an asset rather than a privilege.

This video reminded me of the absolute hatred many men have for women who are equestrians. Horse "girls" seem to inspire a lot of hate in online, male-dominated spaces like Reddit. I have a theory that it is because women who participate in horse sports are inaccessible for long periods of time, and the love people have for their horses will drive them to put their own needs and the needs of their animals over the wants of shitty partners. Most horse women will tell you that they would choose their horse over their (often mediocre) male partner, and men CAN'T STAND IT. I knew at a young age that I wanted to have an adult life where I could ride and afford my own horses without a second income, and it's been a drive of mine when it comes to getting through the military and school for career advancement. Being an equestrian allowed me at a very young age to decenter men and pursue my own goals even if that meant I was going to be unpopular or weird to dudes who were used to being the center of everybody else's worlds. I love my girl hobbies.

2024 is the year of Women Humbling Men. đ„ł

I was a day one. My sonâs father had nothing when we met. I did everything I could to build him up because of the false promise that we were building something together (this stupidly on my part included actual unpaid work outside of all the home responsibilities and child rearing). Now that heâs successful my contributions are downplayed. He is now of the mind that heâs always been this successful and that success is only his. I was also promised that once he was settled where he wanted to be it would be my turn to go after my own goals. Did not happen. I was left at square one on my own. Never again will I believe a manâs bullshit like this. For all the younger girls, spare yourselves. Trash men will suck you dry.

"The system is built for them, and they're losing." First: Grade A burn. Second: Gather round biology girlies! This is a prime example of Darwinism in action.

This might be the most valuable take currently on the internet. Men drain us of our life force, and behind every successful man thereâs always a woman who made it happen for him

wow. this immediately reminded me of Friedrich Nietzsche and his caretaker, Meta Von Salis. she was a prominent figure in the womenâs suffrage movement and was an all around bad ass, well educated woman. her and a group of other women cared for Nietzsche his entire life because he was always too ill and poor to care for him self, but their service allowed him to write and thus open the door for his success as a writer and philosopher. but whatâs worse about this story is that despite all the work Meta Von Salis poured into him and his well being, he was AGAINST the liberation of women and didnât believe women were subjugated. đ ainât that bout a bitch?

idk how applicable this is, but my cousin was with her ex-husband for 8 YEARS before they got married, when they met HE was practically HOMELESS, couch surfing. She married him and after they immigrated to the US because SHE is a nurse who could get a work visa, it only took a couple years for him to cheat and leave her to marry someone else. Men leave their âride or diesâ all the time.

Every dusty man I've been unfortunate enough to meet during my abused phase hated my outdoor, uninterrupted hobbies.

2:45 he was willing to do so much except sacrafice gis life goals and ambitions to be a parent. That sacrafice was forced upon a girl to chase his dreams. What a hero. All it takes to make it is throw the responsibility on a woman then run đ I bet he came back into that kids life years later with money and acted like the best dad ever

I always wondered what we women have achieved if we worked together instead of expecting from men and getting disappointed over and over again
