Actually I support your kind of thinking girls.. why need to depends on boys financially? Absolutely girl I'm with you. Relationship is fine but you need financial n successful life to live.
Go on girl don't bother about others.
In other words, your father is suggesting you be able to support and help him, before you support and help anyone else.
My father doesn’t need my support and help. Him and my mother have created a union of 24 years where they help one another and support each other through thick and then.
Are you married or do you have kids? How long have you been married?
Your dad is right. Education and career should be number one priority. A real man who loves you would understand that and support you.
lack of info here , so these men are u talk about , are they your exes , ?
anyway , u shouldn't let this bother you and stay focused , aren't your dad told you to not let boys distract you ( above)
They’re assuming that your career will always be top priority to you, even when married with kids if that ever happens.
That’s a bold assumption to make I feel. But I guess it’s an accurate assumption for the men who feel that they will do nothing in a relationship and household besides go to work, and then come home and have no involvement with children or domestic chores.
Yeah I think a lot of guys too feel like their masculinity is tied to their ability to provide, and if you’re also making money they feel like their role as a man is somehow threatened or as if you’ll respect them less especially if you earn more.
There is some truth in that, women who earn more than their husbands are statistically more likely to file for divorce, but I also guess that it’s kind of a self fulfilling prophecy for those men.
And that’s 100% valid. But most men are not traditional men today. Most men will not be sole providers for their partner and complain about having to pay for the bill at date’s because they feel “taken advantage of” and “feminism means women should financially help provide too”. Men today want to split 50/50 because they don’t feel like being the sole provider should be their responsibility which is fine. But what they don’t realize is you can’t have the best of both worlds. You can’t do half of the traditional male role and then want full traditional male benefits.
So that’s what makes the conversation so funny I guess. You are right that they do feel like their role is threatened or that the women will be less likely to be fulfilled if she’s high earning. But majority of these guys want women to help pay bills anyways and help financially provide. I can’t help but giggle.
If those are the same guys then yeah that’s dumb, similar to feminist women who want to be treated as equal but also want men to stick to their traditional gender roles when it comes to the things that benefit them.
I think there are guys who are traditional and don’t mind providing though. I’m married with kids, I did that for years, just so that the kids weren’t being put in daycare being raised by strangers. I know a bunch of others who’ve done the same. I think it’s more liberal guys who want 50/50.
I’m independent so I don’t really care about political parties and such. But I don’t want to live in a traditional household anyways lol. I’m just calling out how a lot of these men want their cake and to eat it too. I’ve seen republican/conservative men say the same thing. Doesn’t work like that. Either be traditional or not, there can’t be a mix of being traditional when you want and then not being traditional because it doesn’t benefit you.
Because of control.
The less educated you are the easier to manipulate you are.
I got your back on that!! Everyone has the right and freedom to pursue what they think is best for themselves and no one should hinder that.
One less p*ssy for them. They have their life together. They don't need men. Most guys gonna think she've got all good stuff going on for her. What she is going to need me for?
Ah so it’s an insecurity thing? Makes sense
young republicans. lol. honestly. not mature, to young, maybe misogynistic
it’s not men. it’s boys, regardless of age
u called yourself educated but you generalize people like this , how stupid are you to dont even know that people are different huh
Your plan sounds utterly repulsive if it involved me. I'm sure you'll find plenty of guys though.
Yep never had an issue
Gee.
Why you you people keep touting this myth? It's a lie. Nobody hates you for pursuing a career.
For the exact same reason that women expect a man to prioritize HER over EVERYTHING.
Can you just answer the question if you’re going to comment?
I did. I'm sorry you didn't like it.
You didn’t. I don’t even know what you’re insinuating because you’re comment was so stupid. Very disappointing for someone of your age group.
It's OK. One day you'll be my age. And hopefully by then you'll have grown enough to understand it.
Yeah let’s pray no one turns out like you at your age. How old will you be when I’m your age?
Oops nevermind
🤣🤣🤣 have a nice day hun. 🙂
Yeah you too sir
You’re supposed to be barefoot, pregnant and making me dinner. Now get off the web.
They’re just a bunch of plonkers and hairbrain hatchwitz
Hate or just don't want you. Two very different things
we wanna breed you
Isn’t it important to provide those children with a stable life and home? Or does that not matter and you want your children living in poverty and horrible conditions? I don’t want that for any children I have.
He can be the one that provides, and you can be the one that raises the kids. That way you're both putting in a 50/50 effort
I didn’t work hard to be a stay at home mom. I’m a first generation college student who’s paid so much for my schooling. Being a stay at home mom is not an option.
I can see why men get defensive around you
That sucks for them then I guess
I’m going to listen to the man who’s been with my mom since a teenager and has been married to her for 25 years. And that’s my dad lol. Notice how none of the men complaining have stable relationships or quality relationships like the one my parents share.
I’m just shy of 6 figures and growing fast; she won’t need to work
I love those kind of women
Good men don’t
Because wives are selfless
husbands are supposed to be the same but most aren’t anymore
