Same s--t, different century.

A few weeks ago, psychologist Randi Gunther discussed the fact that women still initiate the majority of divorces, even after men dutifully followed women into the new millennium.
It wasn’t supposed to be this way. We men learned how to change diapers and cook risotto. We learned to watch for barely perceptible nods of approval before opening doors for women. We even learned to manscape, for goodness sake.
Women were supposed to be happy with the new variety of men. Yet they are divorcing us just like they divorced our insensitive forefathers. Professor Gad Saad reported that American woman initiate 69% of divorces; the most recent British statistic is 72%.
Dr. Gunther, who specializes in repairing relationships, described some of the unhappily divorced men she meets in her office:
“I am currently dealing with several of these great husbands. They are, across the board, respectful, quality, caring, devoted, cherishing, authentic, and supportive guys whose wives have left them for a different kind of man.”
Who is this “different kind of man,” and why do women quit their marriages to pursue him? Dr. Gunther continues:
“The women I have treated who have left their husbands for more ‘masculine’ men believed that their new relationships would be able to both excite and nurture them.”
Clearly, this new stud is virile. He’s exciting. He possesses something that the “perfect” husband does not.
Dr. Gunther didn’t say it, but I will: it sounds as if many of today’s perfect, sensitive, cherishing men are… how shall I put this… boring.
Who can blame women for being bored with men these days? Far too many of us have lost our masculine fortitude. That fortitude has nothing to do with being dominant or avoiding vacuum cleaners. It’s a product of solid values and strong backbones.

'Cause they're gonna fix him.
Cute, and look at her grown up purse, and the Palin pin on the other one.
They seem to love Palin, and I hope they grow up to be good conservatives.
Who also don’t exist!
Men don’t want to get married these days and I understand them.
Women who expect a guy to be everything for them are childish and immature.
No man on earth can live up to those expectations.
You love someone for who they really are or there’s not going to be any substance to a relationship.
This fair tale notion a frog will turn into a prince is fantasy.
Women who want a certain type of guy will never be truly happy.
This points up that women have longer lists of criteria in their male companions.
Ready to be flamed. My impression is that women are much more picky about the men in their lives than men are. Yes I know some men want Miss America beautiful. But most men don’t insist on that.
Interesting that the vast majority of divorces are initiated by women. Sounds like men are content more often with the status quo while women, as a group, are seeking something else, something that they are missing in their marriages. And that something is a deal breaker if they go for a divorce.
They left them for men who DON'T change diapers, cook risotto or manscape, for goodness sake...
Face it 10% of the guys get 90% of the chicks. The female sex goes after the same set of guy and rejects the rest. Those guys know who they are too.
Now I understand Why I’m Alone????????????
These females never wanted men to be perfect - they just wanted to abuse them.
Then men actually gave them everything they wanted, and it still wasn’t enough.
So when their men finally call them on their hypocrisy, and on their endless anger issues and cruelty, they divorce the guy and savage him with the legal system.
They file first so he doesn’t see it coming. They get everything ready through deceit, because they want to hurt him by dropping a devastating emotional bomb on him that they know he doesn’t expect. Then they steal his tears and claim abuse, and take his children, his money and his life, and defame his character. They aren’t even human anymore - just broken by years of indulging in every emotional and psychological perversion.
They’re twisted, liberal, Hillary-bot sadists, and they’re everywhere. They are the unspoken plague of monsters in America, and men are avoiding them in droves, because they’re insane with hate - just like their leader.
That’s the plain truth.
He began asking questions why more and more men, men who had traveled and had seen other cultures, wanted to marry foreign women and not American women. It was the poisonous anti-male attitude of the feminists and the hateful effects it had on both genders.
He recalled a survey that was taken in France about American men and women. Interestingly, both French men and women liked American men, but they found American women arrogant, pushy, loud, obnoxious, angry, and vengeful. The question both French men and women asked was: “Why do American men put up with this crap from American women?” His answer was that American men aren't if they get a chance; they are marrying foreign women who can appreciate them as men. In return, American men find what the American woman stopped being before she became a feminist scourge.
I have been married twice and NEVER again. Marriage in the spiritual sense can be the greatest contract ever written. If it falls apart it reverts to the WORST legal contract ever written. I refuse to NOT be in control of my life ever again. I will NEVER be dependent of the legal system again. I will NEVER be in civil court again. The ‘Justice’ system is be biggest joke ever created. The women isn’t blind and the scales aren’t balanced. My last attorney said the problem was everyone expected the courts to be fair. My reply was, “then why the heck do you call it the ‘Justice’ system. Sounds like false advertising. When they started to go after my retirement, that was the final straw.
NEVER AGAIN !!!
Women like men that abuse them.
Female here, with some feedback:
Most men today don't want their wives to be homemakers raising the children. They expect their wives to provide a second income.
And, believe me, as a woman who stopped working to raise her children, I now understand the value of a woman working, or at least holding onto a part-time job. Suppose the husband becomes ill... or suppose he leaves. Those of us who've been out of the workforce for a long time have more difficulty finding work.
women got cats and dogs.
guys got porn.
THIS NEW SYSTEM *WORKS*.
Thank you for your perspective.
I disagree but that is life I guess. No most men do NOT want their wives to work - at least not those that want marriage. Now if you want to include those that want comfortable living arrangements - both parties working and very nice living conditions, then I would agree.
You are going by today’s feminist men, I’d guess, but to me that says that you don’t get out much or you are mixing with the wrong folks - especially men. Sorry, but if the man becomes ill (i’m assuming a major long time illness), then that would be major in any marriage and unusual.
So, I do disagree but am glad to hear an alternate opinion. I wonder if you are of the later generation though as things do seem to be very different these days.
Not for the better though as women find out when the feminists continue to alienate men.
