Can Men Be the Woman of the House?

SNIP

Life was different for all of us, pre-pandemic. Life was especially different for men. Many Indian men, that is. Not trying to sweep half a billion with one stroke, but you get the drift. It wasn’t too long ago when our men needed an app to find where kitchen essentials were kept … or to tell their dals apart. And no number of orientations would do the trick. They’d open the fridge and ask where that mug of cold coffee was even though they’d be staring right at it. That’s because I was told the refrigerator light tends to contract the male eye pupil making it impossible to locate items. Men also thought of the women in their house as a Siri or an Alexa with clairvoyant powers who’d be able to answer questions like where their lost headphones were or what was the name of their boss’s first born.

Men may have been slogging at work and on the jogging tracks in the early mornings. But they were duly exempt from activities such as cooking, cleaning, managing the household staff, and child-raising; activities that were deemed creativity-killing, mental peace-ruining, and grey cell-destroying in the male parlance.

Pre-pandemic was also the time when men not only had different standards but a whole different scale for hygiene, cleanliness, and organization skills. If they could make a list of people to cancel, Marie Kondo would top that list. And they were right. If women felt the need to wear hazmat suits and clip their noses before entering men’s rooms and walk around like they were walking in an abandoned nuclear power plant just because the rooms were coated with dust, grime, and other obscure matter, it wasn’t their problem. In summary, men were unconcerned with these inconsequential things, and therefore,

How MTGOW men are following feminist marching orders. They do exactly what feminists want.

MGTOW = Men Going Their Own Way.

To me that means men not submitting to feminist wants and desires.

If they are not submitting to feminists, how come they give feminists' every wish?

1. Feminists hate marriage and want it. Check MGTOW carry out the feminists wish.

2. Feminists hate traditional values and religion. Check MGTOWs abandon that.

3. Feminists want men to abandon their place in society. Check - MGTOW are wimps who let feminists usurp their place in society.

4. Feminists want men to abandon masculinity. Check MTGOW abandon traditional masculinity and act like androgynous women.

Summary - MGTOW are running away from their own masculinity and put feminists in charge of society.

MGTOW are the ultimate simps to feminists. Feminists love what they are doing!

Why play the game when the deck is stacked against you? Going Galt seems to be the better option IMHO.

Since you don't want your testosterone, maybe you can donate it to someone who wants it.

Ultimately, though, since you want to be a wimp who is eventually going to protect you when the bad people come?

Women cut off the honey

Unless a medical reason

Leave them unless minor kids in home

Then be discreet

I see couples live together loveless

Awful

I had teenage kids, but when I decided that my kids would be better off without me so took my entire month’s supply of high blood pressure pills at once, and woke up the next morning anyway, there was no other option - I wasn’t going to cheat, discrete or not. So, I talked with her, explained something had to change, we go to counselling, something - then waited another 6 months, nothing changed, so I made it change.

Here’s your take home lesson.

Communists and other genocidal maniacs are entirely unaware of any intelligent reasoning underlying their belief system.

Parenting isn’t a women’s thing.

Parenting is a parents’ thing.

Fathers are parents.

I would love for a lot more fathers to be work-from-home fathers.

Please state what you feel “men’s place in society” consists of.

Most movies, shows, and commercials refuse to portray fathers as caring and capable parents.

Most movies, shows, and commercials do, however, portray women are incredibly successful at absolutely everything from careers to mortal conmbat.

Do you consider adoptive mothers to be unsuitable parents?

MGTOW doesn’t work for any men. Unless they want to be feminist tools.

There are a few Freepers who take extreme exception at my disinclination to buy into the concept of a completely sexually integrated military down to naval combat ships and infantry units, which is where we are going.

They likely regard me as ignorantly disrespectful at best, and misogynistic at worst. Nothing could be further from the truth. I believe fully in the Yin-Yang in males and females. There are things men do better than women, and things women do better than men. I believe that when we work together with that in mind, we achieve success in all arenas, and war is one of them.

In civilian life, if a woman who is physically weaker is a firefighter or LEO, and she cannot carry a 220 lb person out of a fire, or as an LEO, subdue that person physically, the loss of life and cost to our nation is limited largely to that event.

My issue is that war is different than civilian life.

The difference between success and failure, and the vastly increased significance or penalty of success or failure is often quite slim, and history shows that a single foxhole holding a single point of defense can win an engagement, winning a battle, and eventually, winning a war.

The margin of success in combat can indeed be just that slim.

Look at what happened in the Chosin Reservoir campaign or on Guadalcanal. The war swung on that one small part of one engagement where only a single small group held out and kept the larger unit from being overrun. Might we have eventually won, even losing there on Guadalcanal and being pushed off the island, or having our Marines wiped out after being mostly encircled and trapped at Chosin? Yes. But the loss of life may have ended up being far greater and the costs as well.

And those small groups in both engagements were engaged in physical, hand-to-hand fight to the death combat, where having enough physical strength, and sometimes, just barely enough strength to eventually win out, is what made the difference.

If I as a citizen give my support to an armed campaign, I want my military to have the greatest advantage everywhere and in every way. And having females integrated into combat units does not do that. It is a compromise. I am only willing to compromise with the lives of our military when there is no other option, and having a co-ed military is not one of those unavoidable options.
