I don't think so. I rely on my man for a lot. This morning I had a warning light come up on my car. He's gonna look at it later tonight. He repairs stuff in the house, he helps me when I get a little too over emotional, and I take care of him. I cook and clean, make sure he has fun, I help him process his emotions and help him look over his health.
You’re a real one. I respect the hell out of this answer. Good on you.
Yes.
Why overthink?
Peace on mind is my main goals.

No way. I don't have to necessarily be married to a man to understand that guys contribute a lot of good things to society and make my life so much easier. I am fairly independent, but I am very grateful for the skills that men have that allow me to go about my life with minimal inconvenience, too. The mechanics, the electricians, the plumbers and contractors, the utility workers, the engineers, and so on.
I should add that I do know how to do basic electrical wiring, change filters and fluids, fix plumbing and so on. That doesn't mean I necessarily enjoy doing that, though. :) I delegate whenever possible.
I highly doubt it , but it would be interesting to see what this world would look like if there were no men on Earth and just women. Would females’ still dress beautiful and do their nails and do their hair and make up? or would they look like men? LOL
A world without men doing all the infrastructure jobs, women would not be able to enjoy life as they do. It's delusional to think that women would be better off without men.
Well women wouldn’t either be alive
No… why is everyone asking the same qt this week?
Yea very much so. Men can't speak for us ladies. They will say no obviously but truth is men and relationships aren't good for women. Men use women for convenience most of the time. Men dont actually love women. So ladies unless you are okay with being used (and maybe your using him too for money or whatever..) then by all means. Personally i could never ever. Never have never will. Men love sex and will say and do the right things to get it. Relationships are a way to get regular access to sex / attention/ validation.
Well... depends. It's not black and white.
On one hand, women no longer have to fear being raped by men. They can still be raped by other women, but it's rarer.
But on the other hand, men often take care of a lot of physically demanding tasks that are just way too much for the average woman unless she's one of those bodybuilder types.
Overall though, I believe that the two genders/sexes both exist for a reason. Plus, with just one or the other humans would literally become extinct.
One dynamic I find interesting is that a man that didn't learn the things his mom used to do for him and expect the women around him to pick up where she left off is called a man child.
A woman that didn't learn the things her dad used to do for her and expect the men around her to pick up where he left off is called... nothing. In fact it's considered quite normal.
Along the same dynamic, I feel it's more socially acceptable for women living alone to 'leverage' their male friendships in many more ways then men in the same situation ever could with their female friends.
This is a good point, however I have always wanted to learn those “manly” tasks such as changing my own oil, being handy around the house, etc. and when I asked the men in my life to teach me they didn’t. They simply did it for me instead and wouldn’t allow me. I had to learn from the internet rather than my father. The difference is men rely on women and are rightfully shamed when they can’t take care of themselves, but at the same time somehow need women to rely on them to justify keeping said woman in their life.
That's the thing, you want to learn it, but it's not expected of you. Society is not shaming you or any other women for not being the least bit handy. I personally see it as a basic life skill just like cooking. I tried to teach my ex how to check her oil, tire pressure and boost her battery many times. Has she ever done it without my direct supervision in nearly a decade? No, not once. And nobody would call her a woman child for asking her male friends to do it for her either.
We're quick to call men overgrown children because they don't keep their home as tidy as we expect them to be. But shrug our shoulders when people such as my sister cause catastrophic failure of MULTIPLE engine due to gross negligence of basic checkups and maintenance. To me one of these things is much worst then the other and it's the one causing severe financial setbacks.
I don't think most men rely on women at all. Lot's of men live alone and they are not dying of hunger. As previously said it would be frowned upon for them to ask female friends for help in most aspects considered domestic. Do some of these men priorities the same things women would? Probably not and that's the problem. How well someone's 'taking care of themselves' is often very arbitrary to what women feel is important. And thankfully for you, the state of you car has apparently no bearing on how much of an adult you're considered to be. Because a lot of you guys cars look like a homeless dude is living in it. lol
It depends on the situation. If you mean in a broad sense, and also ignoring the fact that eventually humans would all die, i think yes. Woman can do anything a man can do, although they may struggle in hard manual labor. Society would have much less murderers and criminals.
however, if you were to make the scenario something like “all men disappeared in a day, will women have a better life?” I would guess no, considering that our society is a patriarchy, many important things are ran by men, like the majority of the government and businesses. However that doesn't mean that women can't pick these up and quickly turn it into an awesome matriarchy🤷♂️
I said in my answer in the genders reversed that men’s lives would be nothing without women’s lives, I’ll say the same that without men life would be missing something special in a woman’s life.
Her supportive father, kind brother, handsome son, romantic & close boyfriend, a loving husband, a good friend…. All those would be missed. As I said in my reversal answer.
Without men there would be a lot of scientific, innovative, helpful, and cheerful moments lost as I said about the reversal.
Point is, being human takes two halves to highlight the beauty of life. Without women, we’d be missing a piece and without men, they’d be missing a piece. I appreciate women’s role in this life and men take it for granted and should take the time to appreciate & showcase it to the beautiful, intelligent, wonderful, amazing, punctual women in their lives & the world will be a better place giving love and appreciation to all. Thank you!
Women in general would not be better off without men. The majority of women will want to get pregnant and have babies, that is no small undertaking and it’s better done with a husband opposed to being a single mother. It’s also proven that women in a stable relationship are happier and healthier, I’m not promoting women stay in an unhealthy relationship with abuse though.
Women also benefit financially from having a husband who works, making retirement plans easier to accomplish, living a more comfortable life in the present and not having to work 2 jobs to put food on the table.
I think there’s a negative stereotype towards straight men, it’s been perpetuated for decades now, single motherhood has been touted as the best way to raise a family and men are simply means to an end.
Omg nooo. Some women are really cruel, bitchy and toxic and like to gang up on certain types of girls who don't fit in.
I'm a massive girly girl but i feel like being around males is much more chilled out. They let you be yourself without judgement
Hardcore feminists don't realize that without men, their world would quite literally crumble to stone age technology.
All the energy, transportation, sewage, and other infrastructure would be done in well under a month.
Men totally compliment my life. They make my life better. However I do not need men but want men... so i am discriminating with the men I allow into my life.
Well put.
Nah. Would we be better off without the toxic masculinity issue? 100% yes. Overall though, we need each other in different ways and it's better when we work together.
I don't believe so. At least, not without the good ones! Men are the other side of the coin. We need each other. And I think that's something to be celebrated.
Honestly, It doesn't matter what anyone here thinks. I think its important to allow women that feel they don't need men, to live their lives that way. It is better for everyone when people with this mindset, simply stay to themselves.
As with any human in your life, if they are toxic you're better off without them, if the two of you are like "peas and carrots" ... all good. The rest is just you deciding whether the good outweighs the bad and how much is "too much"
Yes there's no need to have a man other than for procreation and if a woman desires marriage beyond that having a man isn't a must. It's a want - I sure don't need a man for my survival.
Depends on what you mean. If you’re simply talking about in relationships vs not in relationships, then sure a lot of women might be happier without a man. Society as a whole without men? That would absolutely collapse. Most women would be dead within one year because of their vital needs inadequately being met.
No way! I have some seriously awesome men in my life who I would miss beyond measure.
And if more men were like the ones I know, this question wouldn’t even be asked.
No.
What else would people talk about then (at least around me)?
And what would they do with their lives?
Are you fr saying your life doesn’t pass the bechdel test?
Other people don't. But I do.
You just said everyone in your life talks about men. In order to pass the bechdel test, 2 women are required. That really just confirms it to me
😆 Think whatever you want. When you aren't even there.
Most women (not all) would be better off without men.
@KennethNoisewater
Cheers
We wouldn’t even be born without men…
No but I also think the same applies to men. We both need each other we're meant to compliment one another not be without each other.
not without men as a whole, just without the bad ones
They try to distribute that idea for getting more tax payers 😁
My gosh modern feminists today are insufferable.
Without people causing all the problem men or women.
Actually, men would be happier without women. They want women to cease to exist.
How many of them can actually change a light bulb, or a flat tyre? Therein lies the answer to your question.
The women only want money
And
The men only wants sex
it depends on the woman, personally id b better off without a man and some wouldn't
We all started off as Female but few become men.
But women do live without men anyway. He is only to show other we you can get one
Well when I've been in jobs where there is a majority of women I see more arguments among them as well as extreme rivalries so judging from the evidence I don't think the world would be better
I would also say they're not good in the jobs they dominate in already. See how they're letting boys down in education but pushing privilege to girls and leaving boys behind (that is the boy children's fault probably because "boys are and will be boys" and women don't need to put up with their shit so don't bother)
I think men and Women need each other they cannot live without each other
Hell no and you know life would be hell without us nagging you
God no. I can't stand most woman.
@dustybiker2
Yeah but even the less than perfect ones make up for their visual appeal in other ways. Can cook, good humour, fit, not too serious about themselves and are confident.
There is no woman without man...
Too big to generalize
Who you gonna have sex with then?
More women lmao
Women wouldn't have lives without men.
I don't think..
Both are made for each other.
No...
LMAO no
