"A man is not a necessity, a man is a luxury", Ladies, do you agree with Cher?

[ElissaDido]

Yes

No

I'm a guy/ other

[rozequarts]

I agree only in the sense that a woman shouldn't NEED a man to survive. Just like a man shouldn't need a woman to survive. BUT, you still got women around here that believe being with a man is necessary because he and only he can be the provider, some women can't believe in their own ability or choose not to provide for themselves. It is a weak mindset in my opinion. And this has nothing to do with feminism, just that every human no matter what the gender should be able to at least survive on his/her own.

On the other hand, I've seen grown men that can't cook an egg for breakfast because mommy has done it for them their entire life. Some men surrounded by the toxic machismo culture grow up not knowing how to cook or do laundry because they believe its a job for a woman and only women.

A man shouldn't be a necessity in that sense. If a woman finds a man willing and happy to provide for her, treat her well, bear children for her maybe?, etc. etc., then that in itself is a wonderful luxury as not all woman can have that. I think looking at your man as if he is a luxury you could be missing out on as other women are missing out only helps a relationship; you learn to deeply appreciate him (assuming he's a good man).

Likewise, a woman should not be a necessity for a man, and should also be seen as a luxury (if she's a good woman).

Men are a necessity.

Not for money or help.

But a sentient companion.

there's a type of warmth men have, that makes everything feel okay.

I think its forgotten about our fathers, uncles, brothers etc.

How can you think your father, brother or uncle, is not needed?

[HereIbe]

Men are a necessity for women who swing that way.

Thank GOD for women who swing that way.

[No_Archons]

They are actually a necessity for the things you said they are not necessities for as well. Strip all these fancy male inventions away and you ladies are liabilities, unable to survive the harshness of nature without men, especially when pregnant (which without the male invention of contraception would be rather difficult to avoid, boy did we fuck up by inventing that one)

Truth.

[AynonOMouse]

Lol, try living a year with no help from men and men live with no help from women. Men would still be just fine but women would really suffer.

Car breaks down? lol They need a man now.
Criminal attacking them? Need a man.
Fire and calling the fire department? Need men.
Computer problems? Calling a man.
Electricity goes down from a storm or car damaging the power pole? Calling a man.

And the women that do those jobs usually aren't nearly as good at them and the number of them is so small that they couldn't possibly help all the women that need assistance.

Women need men MUCH more than men need women.

[jammin55]

this is probably the most sexist thing I've read

[AynonOMouse]

@jammin55 Sexist for telling the factual truth?

[jammin55]

it is not factual.. that's kind of the point. Give me the evidence that absolutely no women know how to fix cars or computers or know how to defend themselves, etc. Your statement is just ignorant and self-entitled.

[Love2Jackit]

Yes that's true a man isn't a necessity for a woman. It's a luxury cause getting a good man is hard 2 find. A woman can get with another 2 help satsfy her needs. Women know how 2 take care of each other.

[OlderAndWiser]

Cheer has had many luxuries in her life!

[Киттйлинк]

They are both. Handsome to look at but without them cannot reproduce! Hence the end of mankind.

It is a ridiculous thing I say, however when she says to “live”, well they are nit a necessity and shouldn’t be a necessity to any woman to live, neither the other way around but overall taking everything strictly literal, we do need them if we want to keep existing, just don’t base your life or happiness on another person if that’s what she means, ethics I think it is what she’s means.

[BButterfly]

All the women who say this exact bullshit are the ones that runs after men like crazy bitches in real life. They enjoy going out and filling other women's heads with bullshit and in reality it's completely the opposite of what they're saying. I'm not with her nor against her on this and sure no one is going to die if they didn't become in a relationship in their lives, but believe it or not men and women complete each other in different ways.

[HereIbe]

STOP
SPEAKING
SENSE!

Do you know how much that messes with my comfortable misogyny? Women like you just totally fuck with my head-space!

[BButterfly]

@HereIbe How's that?

[SirRexington]

It's interesting. I find that I agree with her a lot more than I realized. Just 2 days ago she posted how angry she was that politicians make a fuss over helping illegal immigrants but not homeless citizens in her own city. The Trump tweeted her and she basically told him to fuck off.

It shows you don't have to be a Trump supporter to point out bullshit like how we focus on and prioritize people that aren't our own citizens.

[ThisAndThat]

I hope if there is a future draft, it's you on the front lines to fight of illegals you've helped give our country away to.

[SirRexington]

@ThisAndThat im not sure what you are saying or that you understand what I was saying.

[ThisAndThat]

I'm saying, if you're so eager to give our country away to illegals that want to take it from us and are doing so, if there is another war, it should be you fighting for said country you gave away to the illegals.

[SirRexington]

@ThisAndThat ok so I was correct, you misunderstand what I and Cher was saying. She said and what I agree with is how frustrated we are that America cares more about immigrants and particularly illegal ones more than our own citizens who are homeless or who fail to meet ends meet. So no, I am not wanting to give our country away to illegals. I personally seem to cap how many we let in, that we should turn many back rhe way they came and we should punish businesses for hiring illegal immigrants.

Also, the draft is an authoritarian and individual rights revoking policy that forces people to serve and risk their lives against their will. And even if tjere was a draft it wouldn't be for illegal crossings as that isn't the job of the military.

[ThisAndThat]

In that case, I owe you an apology and I'm sorry I misinterpreted what you said. However I don't agree with Cher on men not being a necessity. Men are the only reason she can survive. If it were left up to her to make ends meet and I'm talking about those that do the work she wouldn't care to even try, she would starve completely to death in a month's time as well as the rest of her bunch in leisure land. She also conveniently forgets how she made it where she is currently.

[Texaskid1]

1. For her men are not a necessity. She is rich. But for most women around the world who depend on some guy to put feed on the table - the husband , boyfriend, father , brother , son are needed.

2. "Mom, I am a rich man"

Freudian slip perhaps? I always suspected something about her ( or him or whatever).

[thothahuramazda]

One way to find out. Limit yourself from voluntary engagement. No wahmen needs to be a parasite to a man. Truly what parasitic behaviors do people of both genders do? Don't be a terrible offensive person in your journey just be i'm just going to be doing my thing no thanks have a nice day i'm good. Be cooperative when you need to function in your environment.

[ronaldo75]

Relationships aren't necessary anymore. These types of "you go girl" moments are stupid at this point. Women have MORE access to education and jobs than men at that point and more and more men are quitting on marriage and even looking for women. No one is trying to trap you anymore ladies. Drop the victim cards.

[Purple_Summer]

wtf Cher said a man is a luxury and you type up an irrelevant comment about women getting trapped or playing the victim? you just waited for an opportunity to tell this anywhere lol

[ronaldo75]

@Purple_Summer Thanks for telling me what I'm thinking, you have anymore insight into my own thoughts I wasn't aware of? This video is being posted all over facebook and I've had it sent to me like 10 times on whatsapp. I'm tired of it. Good. 40 fucking years ago cher said men luxury good for for her. It's 2019.

[Purple_Summer]

another out of context comment. when did I mention your facebook? who was supposed to know you've seen it so many times an got tired of it? that wasn't the point of the question

[ronaldo75]

@Purple_Summer I clicked expecting a more solid answer and all I got was bad reading comprehension from you hahahahaha...

[Purple_Summer]

My reading is fine, you're just so lost in your own little world that nothing people say to you gets through

[3rdSrike]

a man is not a neccisity? thats why so many women are desperate for affection and the touch of a man, thats why so many women are depressed they are living alone and can't find a partner to share their lives with... you need a man just like you need air and water and food, its a basic human neccisity, if you lack it you will never be happy in your life no matter how far you get in your career or how happy your family is.

[zippididooda]

Wait until she hears a noise like a burglar in the house at night. Or when there's an unknown bug crawling on the TV screen. Or when she decides it would be a good idea to have some men around to defend the country.

[Anonymous]

Technically sure, in the sense that you wouldn't literally die if you don't have one. But in a practical sense, if something like 90% of women either have a man or spend a significant time and effort trying to get one, it would seem that women behave as though it's a necessity.

[alvincasey]

I'm a guy and I've never heard that but I like it. If i had ny choice between a woman that needs me vs. A woman that wants me, I'd choose the latter easily

[Anonymous]

Neither are women a necessity anymore now that the artificial womb and means of artificial egg production have came about and are in the works.

Furthermore, Cher isn't as hollywood portrayed her on the screen as this long legged model looking goddess they made her out to be. She's this little short troll that could literally walk right underneath my arm. I know, I've seen (it) in person.

[anon1903]

Firstly, smooth and beautiful quote!

Secondly, not all quotes are... realistic. Like if I say,"Alcohol is depression's best friend" doesn't have to mean that all depression victims are alcoholics!

[Therisinghero12]

Yeah and it goes both ways, no one needs anyone in that way, if you're talking actually needs though then you need someone (who will most likely be a man) to keep the power on and the water running etc etc...

[PrettyRegular]

Sounds about right. Men can love, take care, have sex, make babies etc with women, but women would be ok without it. Same goes other way. Men don't need women either, but they rather have a women than are alone.

[SarahsSummer]

sure. I didn't watch the Cher interview but that statement makes enough sense

[mobligator]

Try having a baby without a man or without the sperm from a man.

[Anonymous]

Women are only with men to get stuff from, women dont really love a man they love what men can give them, modern women are a lost cause MGTOW

[Anonymous]

That’s a cancer opinion.

It’s not like I think people aren’t allowed to be single but I wouldn’t call women a luxury. I actually value the presence of a girl in my life and to openly say shot like that is cancer.

[GiovanniGentile]

Cher is an ugly washed up whore
If you listen to that semen dump, it means your father was weak or not around, and you hate yourself
