Still just the forums

I'm only here for the Forum. Since my masculinity is "toxic" what's the point of dating?

Rooster .. why would you say such a thing !!!! You cannot be serious .

I’m here for true love still looking for my knight and shining armor....the forums I tolerate until I find him...

Both! I just recently discovered the fun of the forums so that gives this thing a new level of addiction.

Again .. just here for the forums ..

Oh I'm very serious.
Why would I say such a thing?
I haven't read one positive article written by a woman about men in the last 15yrs and during that time all I've read are articles siting bogus studies about how Masculinity is toxic and that men are useless. Men are viewed as defacto predator-rapists nowadays who only want sex and mooch off strong independent women.
Give me one reason why I should put myself in situations where I'd automatically be the bad guy no matter what I mean to do.

stop reading that crap ... it is bad for your mind .. ..stop being a victim of someone else's dysfunctional thinking ..
Who is ultimately responsible for your choice in women ???

What a response! I just read that and it felt like a mom talking to a kid!!

Wait!

Women write stuff?

laughing .. I wasn't dressed like a mom when I said it . Honest
I am wondering What your response to rooster would be :-)

I'm not a victim. Turns out that single life is awesome. I have more time for my hobbies, I have peace if mind, I know where my money is going and, most importantly, I won't be falsely accused of Domestic Violence just because my "better half" is tired of seeing my ugly mug after a few years.

Stop reading that crap?
You suggest I bury my head in the sand and ignore the unrelenting attacks on Masculinity that results in thousands of guys being incarcerated for no other reason than their ex's say-so? How long will it be until I find myself amongst them and lose everything as a result of my carelessness regarding the societal trend that paints all men as monsters?
Nope, dating and marriage has become too much of a risk for the powerless average Joe.

Who's responsible for my choice in women?
ME.
That's why I chose NO woman.


.

if you like I can make you a voodoo doll of your better half and we can stick needles in her eyes Or I can speak with my mafia contacts and we can feed her to the fishes

Obviously you experience has been traumatic and that very much colours your perception of all women ..

it is truly sad you feel that way .. you have let her win . You are still a prisoner of her emotional torture chamber whether you acknowledge that or not ..
and perhaps she has succeeded in destroying part of your masculinity ...
At the least it seems she has ruined you for other women .. .

. I hope one day you find your way back rooster .. not every woman is her

My decision to skip women altogether has nothing to do with "her" ( whoever that is ).
I always had good relations with my ex's. The mother of my children has been very accommodating regarding my relationship with my kids and we have become friends over the years. My children know me and love me. No, my views on relationships doesn't blame any of my ex's.

I just woke up some ten years ago, analysed the subcurrent running in society that more often than not blames men ( especially white men ) for an illusion of organized oppression towards women all while seeing the percentage of broken, incarcerated and suicidal men triple in my lifetime.
Although having been falsely accused myself of a horrendous crime, wrongly incarcerated then freed without so much of an apology, I'm willing to chalk all that under "Due Process" and move on.
What I cannot excuse, however, is the way a woman's lies were used by an unscrupulous procecutor in need of votes as a weapon to arrest and procecute an innocent man.
And it happens everyday with hundreds upon hundreds of men and keeps happening as if the judges themselves had their eyes blinfolded.

Until the inJustice system becomes just towards everyone and not only women, I deem it very dangerous to get mixed up with a woman either in dating, cohabitation or marriage.

I agree, most women suck...not in the good way either...

again, I agree...women are fake...inches of makeup, pianted eyebrows, fake boobs, most don't even what their real hair color is...not to mention how much money they spend on themselves, from toenails to hair coloring, and everything in between...and that doesn't even include this wardrobe...women lie to themselves more than anything, never happy about anything, then blame men for all their problems...yea, let the others guys deal with them, like rooster, I refuse to as well...

I don't blame women so much as I blame our so-called leaders for being weak faced with a Women's movement that pretends that Equality between the genders has to pass before the truths of what men and women actually are in relation to each other.

If they want to spend their money in changing their appearance, what's it to me? As long as they do it with their money and not mine.


.

a lie is a lie, no matter how it's being told..to me, when people have to worry more about their physical appearance than anything else, they've lost touch with reality thinking all that crap will make them happy, when all their really doing is making themselves miserable...most people don't even know who they are anymore, and have to rely on outside sources to make themselves think their happy, women being the worst there...that's what gives their feminist attitudes, trying to make men make them happy and it doesn't work...it's a big catch 22 and they can't see it...men also fail to realize that their not helping by doing these things for women, making your wife prettier isn't a good or bad thing, it just doesn't help the real problem...if anyone thinks that they have to be what society dictates, then there's a huge mental problem there...

Main focus on the forums, postive thoughts more appreciated than false hopes

I agree.
But ultimately, as you've hinted at, it's the fault of us men if we find ourselves on the spot without being able to do anything about it.
We were apathetic to the ominous changes in society, too comfortable in the illusion of our superiority and we didn't hold our lawmakers accountable for caving in to any and every silly demands of the feminist movement throughout the last century.
