Why is that society puts this burden on women to bare children and get married? I don't support the patriarchal system either and don't believe a woman should be stuck to a man until death.

I'm sorry--what? "Society" puts this burden on women to bare children? What did we all vote on this or something? I'm pretty sure it's NATURE that put that burden on women. Holy hell has the education system failed you! But thank god you've learned about "the patriarchal system." LMFAO!

[Asker]

Yes , have children and get married isn't that what patriarch teaches society? Even without the children- not interested in being tied to a man until death

[Asker]

Not looking to give my submission to a man

[Asker]

Or freedom

[Berethor]

It okay you already have children and single moms are not popular.

[Asker]

Neither are used up men, and I'm divorced

[Sasha0426]

Well, here’s an easy solution: Don’t get married or have kids. Easy, right?

[Asker]

Not what this post is about

[Sasha0426]

Then I don’t know what else to say.

[Asker]

OK thanks

[BarryLiverstone]

. Ok, you can be alone. What else do you desire?

[Asker]

Sure ain't marriage and yes I've accepted that prospective !

[Asker]

That's not something I'm willing to deal with !

[BarryLiverstone]

If you don’t want to deal with desires, not sure how you will be happy

[Asker]

I can deal with men without the common, stress, or relationships

[Asker]

Why is happiness= marriage? Why can't I be a single woman with friends and be happy?

[Asker]

I made it clear that I don't support patriarchal beliefs

[BarryLiverstone]

I never said marriage. I said you would be single. I asked what you desired and you said you aren’t dealing with any desires

[Asker]

Marriage and having more children isn't a desire - my desire is to stay single and celibate while maintaining friends with men

[BarryLiverstone]

Ok then be friends. You are an adult and have chosen to not be in a relationship. I don’t see any issues

[Asker]

Ok when I explain this to men it's a problem

[BarryLiverstone]

I’m a man. I don’t see a problem. You will be single and alone. Lots of women choose that. They find desire in other things like cats and crafts. What do men say?

[Asker]

Single and alone isn't a bad thing - I've been alone and single most of my life... they have an issue with my single life

[BarryLiverstone]

Then you can ignore them. Be dude you don’t desire men romantically and are asexual, you can ignore their feedback and focus on your friends and family. Are any of your siblings married?

[Asker]

Yes 2 are very hard marriages - baby sister is dating and I've always been alone and have been 12 years come Jan 28

[Asker]

I'm in the process of buying my house next month

[BarryLiverstone]

Good luck buying your house. Although the patriarchy says that home owners oppress the lower classes so might be better to rent

[Asker]

Why would I need to rent a home? I'm self-employed and a business owner - buying a home because I can afford it

[Asker]

A starter home would be great for me and my children

[BarryLiverstone]

Because the patriarchy is based on hierarchy and those with power at the top oppress other classes. As a business owner you are near the top and thus supporting that system

[Asker]

I'm supporting myself and children as a small business owner

[BarryLiverstone]

Here is an article that goes into more details about how home ownership oppressed women:

[Asker]

I don't think buying a home is oppressing me - men are

[Asker]

Buying a home with a man is oppressing women, getting married.. etc. I'm free and single !

[Asker]

I have the funds and resources to maintain my home in peace

[BarryLiverstone]

That’s not what the article says. It says the private home ownership is oppressive. So you are deciding to oppress. Which is what you want and desire based on what you say. Men have nothing to do with it.

[Asker]

Of course, that article will say that lol because if you are a single woman, it goes against the patriarchal system. I don't feel safe even living with a man less more getting married to one

[BarryLiverstone]

I hope that you and your daughters are raised safe and secure. I assume you have no boys right?

[Asker]

I have guns and weapons

“Why Packing a Pistol Perpetuates Patriarchy”

[Asker]

Lol I need guns to protect me from men

[BarryLiverstone]

Nope, the article says that gun ownership perpetuates the patriarchy. Not sure it’s funny

[Asker]

Perpetuates patriarch whose shooting and unaliving women, schools , and men - other men

[BarryLiverstone]

So best to not own property and turn over your guns. You don’t want to support the system that oppressed so many

[Asker]

Men are oppressing women

[BarryLiverstone]

Also you are oppressing.

[Asker]

No not dealing with men I'm not

[Asker]

These articles are null and has nothing to do with me

[BarryLiverstone]

You are oppressing because:

- property owner
- gun owner
- business owner
- abled (right)

Might be in other ways but as a hierarchy your privilege is above so many.

[BarryLiverstone]

I assumed you are abled. If you are disabled it’s a bad assumption.

[BarryLiverstone]

An 18 year old man with no ownership and working a part time job has much less privilege than you have

[Asker]

I'm not here to compete with men - I am my own woman

[BarryLiverstone]

Good. Don’t compete. By giving up your ownership in your company you cannot be supporting the capitalist system that oppresses so many and is highly competitive

[BarryLiverstone]

Anyway. You are anon posting on a free website so I wish you peace. Many in the world don’t have access to the internet Good bye.

@BarryLiverstone
I'd thumbs up every reply you have here if I could

[Asker]

I wish you men the best
