@spaceangelvoice@HaeckelGroyper It’s not insane, though. In WEIRD countries like the US, a man being submissive to his wife, letting her have the final say in most decisions and manage and spend his money, is a common and successful mating strategy. Those marriages have the lowest divorce rates.
@spaceangelvoice@HaeckelGroyper Men do act submissive to women as a whole. How else do you think women got all their rights?
Men who act submissive are just doing what women want anyway. The average woman actually prefers a partner who is socially submissive towards her & her friends/relatives for LTRs.
@leshmit@jusderaisingroy "These studies are bullshit with weird parameters" is lazy cope. Multiple methodologically sound, replicated studies (Buss, de Miguel et al. Alghraibeh et al., etc.) confirm men use submission/self-abasement more for mate retention.
@ynetynetynet2@danton3wuzhere@mtracey@DropSiteNews "She'd be fired if she refused him"
Her mind was telling her that, but it wasn't true. As an ICC employee, she had employment protections, including against retaliation, that made arbitrary firing nearly impossible.

@pinkcocainaaa@JFGariepy Marry a decent man while you’re young and beautiful, and he’ll love you for life. Even when your looks fade and/or if he sleeps around with younger women, his deepest love and loyalty will always belong to you, and he will always be grateful to you.
@mariology23@gasnamaka23913@Haqiqatjou@JFGariepy All countries with a low birth rate have high rates of female educational attainment and/or labor force participation. When women prioritise degrees and careers, they become less likely to have kids.
@MysticCusp@SteveStuWill There's actually no solid scientific evidence for repressed memories. Believing in them comes down to faith rather than science, because personal anecdotes and vague recollections don't count as proof.
@SpazzyIsReal@Shrimp4_dinner@giveashitnature Angel wing is real, but bread isn't the cause. Evidence links it to genuinely high-protein diets (20%+, like specialized poultry feed) in fast-growing young birds. Bread is much lower in protein, and there’s no evidence it causes angel wing in wild birds.

@VolatilityVIX@SteveStuWill This is factually correct. Men who eventually marry typically see their earnings begin to exceed single women's in the years leading up to their marriage.
@LuckyDuck2121@reverett1234@dcperi@newstart_2024 I looked at the Norwegian study, and it doesn't support your claim that earlier heterosexual divorces were being counted as same-sex divorces. In Method → Data, it says the dataset is all same-sex marriages formed in Norway from 1993–2018.

@IonaItalia This overlooks the middle ground many men choose: cohabitation and situationships. These deliver sex without marriage’s high legal/financial risks, allowing them to enjoy low-commitment relationships while getting just as much sex as married guys.
@wil_da_beast630 Historically, infanticide was widespread, often dwarfing other homicide stats. Whether through drowning, suffocation, or purposeful neglect, it was almost always perpetrated by women, specifically mothers, mothers-in-law, or midwives.

@PaulBN@TheTinMenBlog They don't care because they don't know who he is. They assume he’s just a random loser cold approaching. If they knew his social media clout, they’d act way different.
@DrThomasAG In the 1980s, long before the manosphere existed, these same types of men already overwhelmingly reported negative experiences with psychotherapy, even though most therapists then were male. The blackpill exacerbates this, but it's not the root cause.
@zhiheather@wil_da_beast630 Mothers actually tend to live longer than childless women, on top of outliving their partners. When you combine paid employment, childcare, chores, & errands, married men & women have nearly identical total workloads. Overall, men pull their weight.

@pickles82783199 @242mphFalcon @jeanbean88@Oneiorosgrip There was a tendency in Ancient Rome for women to gain more and more rights over time, beginning with the repeal of Lex Oppia. They got easier unilateral divorce, independent property ownership (through sine manu marriage), & freedom from male guardianship (by 330 A.D.)
