No, I'd say "some" are expendable to "some". It's tricky because I believe it's more about finance than romance the older you get.

Let's say a woman makes her own good money and doesn't need that from a man. She'll want something else from him, let's say love and all the "stuff" she associates with it. That's what she'll seek in a man, and if he can't offer it, then he's expendable. But if she's with a good earner/provider but lacking in the "love/communication/connection" departments, she might make a different decision.

I think the younger a woman is the more likely it is she'll dump a guy who doesn't check off the romance boxes.

It depends on the woman. Some men just allow people to treat them any way they want. Long as they’re hot and offer sex, even if they get nothing else. Meanwhile the type of women who will treat them good maube don’t wanna put out for sex and don’t want to be with someone promiscuous and vice versa

Most people have low relationship value, so yes to most people being expendable in that context. I don't think most women see it that way, though. And I do think it's wrong to get into a relationship with someone you view as expendable.

No! I could have asked this very same question! My last ex left me like it was no big deal so..

Oh, but he wasn't random, he wasn't one of "most of the men", he was someone You cared about... Though I agree that it's pretty common for people of both sexes to consider most people of the opposite sex to be expandable, so the one-sided question only shows one side of the problem.

A man is only valued for his agency. What he is able to do and accomplish and how that benefits a woman. Some of that is innate say if she finds him attractive and/or a good personality.

But once she decides she no longer finds value in him then yes he quickly becomes expendable. Men are not special just for existing. Some women might feel guilt about cutting it off with a boyfriend or husband. But that guilt is really about them still. Not the man.

To some. But if you find a good man you hold on to him.

Your fault if you can't tell the difference between being a piggy bank or the most important they have.

[NathanDavis]

not in my experience... but don't know about other people

[Dargil]

In Western culture, yes. Because they have Government to take care of them.

[Juxtapose]

I believe most people are low-key sociopaths who don't really give a fuck about anybody but a few select people, if that!

I know I’m one

[CalmUntilAbused]

Yes, they are. They are supposed to perish in wars to ensure the safety of women (though it's no longer what wars are about).

[Anonymous]

Yes, we are a pretty replaceable resource. Use a hot girlfriends dating app, and use a hot guy friends world of difference in options for women.

[Kingofkings1992]

As soon as he’s no longer in a good spot in life, she’s gone

Only to the low quality women.
