Great observations. It’s almost like the people who make movies like this want men and women to hate each other . . .

Or they want to habituate young men into being docile and subservient.

There is a subversive reason for this. Men and women who usually hate each other, do not reproduce.

Totally agree, it's at pandemic level among White women. If you can get one very young there's hope to rewire it, but that's out of the cards for most White dudes

Does the atheist harpy end up converting to Christianity at the end of that Oxford movie?

Either way, agree with you that such a storyline sends a message that is questionable, at best. I would never seriously date an atheist or consider her for marriage, even if she were relatively well-behaved, and I advise the same to anyone else.

Yes, in fact the actual Carlyon Weber now holds a position at Oxford and is a devout believer. The movie is based on a book that she wrote which details her conversion experience... To be clear, my problem was never with the fact that Carylon was an atheist; it was centered around how she ill-treated her romantic interest and was never taken to task for it. (I also don't know if the real Carlyon was as insufferable to her future husband as is depicted in the movie, but I *hope* she wasn't.)

And I just had to write elsewhere that I actually quite enjoy some of the nonsense arguments in a relationship. I do think that you have to endure some bullshit during dating, but it's best to have some boundaries.

If you feel deeply disrespected, you might just be right. Not a big fan of the red flag brigade...if she doesn't get it, she might not be the one for you.

We are dealing with promatriarchy dictators who want us dead or enslaved.
