Search Results: being unfaithful

So I've finally resolved myself to start dating this year, but I feel my views on relationships these days is very pessimistic. Basically I feel that it's completely one-sided on the woman's part, and is little different from the relationship between a master and their servent

For example: If a woman hits a man, She's being strong and is encouraged to do so, if a man hits a woman for any reason even if his life is in danger, he is completely at fault for it.

Some women will cringe at the mere mention of splitting the bill let alone a woman paying for the whole thing, but it's almost expected for a man to foot the entire bill even if he makes less.

If a man cheats on a woman, he is a horrible unfaithful human being. If a woman cheats on a man, it's because the man didn't love her enough and give her enough attention.

If a woman doesn't want sex then pressuring her to do so would be sexual harassment, if a man doesn't want sex there is something fundamentally wrong with him as a person, cause men ALWAYS want sex right?

I could go on but the point im trying to make is this, modern day double standards, make it so how relationships go is entirely dependent on how benevolent the female party is.

So if I genuinely believe that, why bother dating at all? Well 2 reasons.

1. Being fully aware of this reality, means I have the freedom to at least choose who my master is going to be.

And

2. Being someone's subservient boytoy, is still better then spending your life alone provided you get to choose your master as stated above.

So is this an overly cynical view of dating?
