Even dating seems very weird when you look at men expecting women to give affection/sex towards them just because they payed for a meal or gave them gifts.

1) I seriously doubt the one in four figure. Let's do the maths. In Germany there are about forty million women (just about eighty million citizens and about a 50/50 spread). Let's say that a quarter of them is not yet in relationship age (which is generous, the actual number is lower), which we define as 20 to 80 years. That leaves thirty million women. Let's assume that the one in four figure is correct, that leaves 7.500.000 women who will be experiencing / have experienced sexual abuse. We then have 7,5 mil. women / 60 years = 125.000 women / year. This number essentially says "if there's always about the same amount of women and the abuse rates over a sixty year period filled with relationships is one in four then it is reasonable to expect around 125.000 women a year in shelters". In reality this number is about a tenth of that (source: http://www.big-berlin info/news/414), suggesting something closer to one thirtieth of all women will be abused in their relationships.
2) Yes, men tend to appreciate dressed up women which they find pretty. It's almost like humans want to be around pretty humans, as if appearance was an important factor in mate selection. How queer.
3) "many guys are controlling and expect women to submit to their wants and needs" - source please. Based on my experience the man tends to be the pater familia and has the last say but the final decision is made by the woman. They don't as much expect them to submit as much as expecting them to agree since the man usually takes his partner into account when making decisions.
4) Yes, throughout history men often preferred virgins. Why? It was seen as virtuous to remain a virgin, not because she was suspected to wait for her man but because polygamy and polyandry were both seen as negative, in contrast to the monogamy which often was preached. I believe this was stricter enforced for women but also existed for men. However, I will grant you this, back in the day women were treated worse, in a sense, than men, very much so.
5) Show me examples of men who are not considered shitbags by wider society who expect paying for dinner to be enough to award them sexual activity. The way I see it the men pay for dinner because they see it as their duty, the sex afterwards is seen separately from who paid the bill that evening.
"It's been said that 1 in 4 women will experience domestic abuse by their partner and majority of abuse in relationship are at the hands of men towards women." According to actual statistics over 40% or domestic abuse is directed towards men and in many countries men have no shelters.
"We also see that men often tend to mostly appreciate women being thin and dressing up pretty." Tastes vary a lot.
"When we look at relationship, many guys are controlling and expect women to submit to their wants and need." If you don't want that, don't date guys like that. I don't want that.
"An example of this, comes from men throughout centuries expecting women... ... This attitude is still prevalent today among guys." Citation needed.
"Even dating seems very weird when you look at men expecting women to give affection/sex towards them just because they payed for a meal or gave them gifts." Yeah there's some guys who think that. Any proof that this is common?
Human beings who need to be put in their place. I don't mind LOL
And it is a man's world, but it would be nothinggggg withouttt a woman or a girl 😋
Seal?
A man's world lol
Are you a kiss up and a doormat to men?
That's sad lol
I don't know any men who would think of women as property. I'm sure there are still some out there but not around me.
I think men would LIKE to only think of us as their property, but something called love gets in their way of that.
I think their view is still paternalistic. Deeeeeep down.

Wow! That's a loaded question - I like that!
Since the beginning of time, or as so we we're taught, the male species has been either hard-coded or taught that women we're of a lesser stature and status and thus more property than feeling human beings.
Crap! All of that is crap plain and simple.
Any man that believes that the lady that has honored him with her devoted company is a material object is no man in my eyes. The very notion of this subject makes my blood boil!
In my opinion there is no greater gift that can be given than the gift of her love and devotion and any one that hurts, insults, belittles, abuses or in any way injures her should be treated to the same hurt in vastly larger amounts and intensities.
I am sorry if this is a rant but I just get SO angry when the very subject of male superiority comes up.
Be aware that there are also instances of inflated statistics regarding rape , sexual assaults etc. Especially from far left universities with a Marxist agenda. These people use groups like women, racial groups, any demographic that they can to do their dirty work. The madder they can get members of these groups at society the more they can get them to do. From signing petitions to rioting on the streets. Ultimately the people putting out this corrupt data are communists bent on overthrowing western civilization it's self.
1 in 4 women may suffer abuse at some point but that’s not because 1 in 5 men are abusive. A smaller group of men are avusive to every partner they have.
When it comes to violence there’s really not much uncertainty: most couples with violence both parties initiate the physical violence. In those where only one party does men are only slightly more often the violent one. There are a lot more violent women than is realized. However: violent men tend to do significantly more damage.
If you want to talk about “through the centuries” it’s not really true that women had to be virgins. Young widows were pursued for marriage. What -is- true is that men are more concerned than women are about sexual fidelity in someone they intend to have children with. Wanting your children do be yours is not “thinking women are objects”.
Of course she IS MY PROPERTY, i paid for her everything that she has!!! Muhahahahahahha im a MAN! Im your BOSS! Never think for yourself! FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! first, those statistics are messed up, bc, whenever a girl abuses her husband, if he tells someone, both females and males will laugh at him, ok, second, A LOT (not all) women uses their man to provide them food, house, and lets face it, love, everyone want to feel loved, third, the majority of women go after hot, wealthy, high status males, guy go after hot females, saw the requirments?
Depends on the individual man. Women can also be sexually possessive sometimes. My two cents worth is that a woman's humanity is an essential part of any attraction I might feel for her. It's also partly about looks, but I don't separate the human aspect from the physical.
We largely see women as human beings, but I think many men regard modern women with a little bit of disdain. It's sad, but I'm not entirely sure than men and women really even like each other.
It's 2017. They consider us people now. Though some still think it's the 50s.
Property. Because if they valued us as humans.
Then majority of them wouldn't be wired with their dicks.
I would say that both genders see each other as disposable but in different ways.
They don't see them as property, but use them for pleasure Women do the same to men.
If this is your opinion of how men think is it safe to assume you just have no desire to be with a man for the rest of your life?
Funny how women see themselves as property much more than men.
Must be fun playing the victim huh?
I see women as human beings who can do anything that they can set their minds too. I also see them not needing men to fight their problems for them.
Men are to love their wives as Christ loves the church, cherish her, provide for her, and NEVER abuse her in any way shape or form. And maybe cook dinner for her every once in a while.
Yes its true, but its also true the other way around.
I feel like I live in a different world because most of that isn't remotely true.
I think half and half. We are human beings as their property.
❌❌❌ It is such a DOUBLE STANDARD. Women are more shallow and have higher expectations then men. Don’t give us that bullshit. Women want everything these days, we only ever hear women complaining.
It's not that women have higher expectations, it's more that men are easily satisfied with less. When I met my ex-wife she had literally the clothes on her back and a child. I gave her a house full of furniture and all my heart. I was very happy with things like they were but she always wanted better. Bigger nicer house, top of the line phone, jeans that cost $200, it didn't matter what I did it was never enough. Eventually I gave up. She let the things that she didn't have make her a bitter person who was perpetually unhappy.
My boyfriend thinks I am badass, driven, and tough
Human being otherwise we'd all become lezbos 😂😂
