I am old enough to be appalled and sickened by young women today. I have nothing but sympathy for the decent men they chew up and spit out. I advised my sons to marry a girl from a not quite developed and culturally Christian (Catholic) country. Feminist influenced women in the Western world are f#*&ed in the head. I live in Italy - after learning what the women here do to men, and the laws that have been passed that punish men for accusations alone, I don't wonder why few marry and aren't having kids. It is a poison spreading through all 'Western' countries.
Strangely recently my mother who is a feminist (or maybe was?) has begun pushing for the same thing, so that she's egging me on to marry someone from a less developed country and is eager to help subsidize the flight if only to secure a daughter-in-law with what she calls a 'brain, decency and who will love you properly, unlike most women from around here', which is pretty strong language considering she was up until this summer always pushing progressive talking points. Dunno what happened with her, but I prefer her like this.
Family court has a lot to do with it. A marriage is a business contract between the bride, groom and state. The state subsidized divorce for profit and votes. Its a bad investment for a male.
This is correct. For some reason, women insulting men, sometimes even to the level of hitting them, is supposed to represent the woman showing that she is powerful. It's been getting worse for years. "The Terminal List" avoided this trope, if I recall. Then again, it wasn't exactly a romcom.
Allow me to add a movie to the “I cannot stand movies anymore, and it’s because men are bitches list!:”
Speak no Evil, it’s a thriller / horror that had me cringing and crawling out of my seat pissed the fuck off when this “man” couldn’t step up and LEAD his family when things got dangerous. He even played the part of being the little bitch too stressed out when things got hot - crying and screaming at his wife (In front of his daughter) that he “Didn’t know what to do”, that all the way to his wife had to “save” him after he was overwhelmed by an attacker with a hammer in the guys skull - after he had let him walk right by him while he hid in a closet, allowing the perfect element of surprise slip through his little bitch-fingers.
Even earlier in the movie was disgusting. His wife feeling uncomfortable with certain things, and husband just being too kind and allowing himself to be pushed around by another man.
The whole movie was disgusting - most men (normies) will go to the movie theater watch that, eternalize that, and absorb that as their disposition. Women as well.
I’m ready to watch a hundred old movies & westerns to remind myself that there was a purpose to movies like this being made, as is the POS movies Ryan Gosling (HOW COOOL WOULD HE BE IF HE WOULD NEVER PLAY ANY DEMORALIZING MALE ROLES???) made.
What passes for romance in the entertainment industry baffles me.
They frequently romanticize abusive behavior from both “sides”.
Young adults films are filled with “bad boys” who treat the protagonist (usually a teenage girl or young woman with little to no experience in dating) terribly and are supposed to be endured until they are “saved” by the protagonist.
Adult films are filled with jaded older women getting back at men (usually not the one who wronged the protagonist) for the bad experiences they had before.
It’s like they can’t imagine flawed love interests that aren’t jerks.
Very well said. I haven’t seen this show but I have seen plenty of others just like it…before I gave up on screen entertainments with a few narrow exceptions. Yes, women—especially American women—are insufferable. Rude. Self-centered. Delusional. Spoiled. Demanding. With rotten values and no understanding of what’s important in life. And they are desperately unhappy as a result but take no responsibility for their own unhappiness, preferring to blame it on men. The very same men they have disempowered, belittled, and robbed—often literally robbed of wealth and family via divorce-rape. What can be done? Probably nothing fast enough to reverse demographic collapse. Eventually the hard times will produce strong men again and the good times will follow. In the meantime, men might ignore everything that issues from women’s lying mouths and focus instead on appealing to women’s underlying hunger for raw masculine strength and dominance.
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 Carolyn 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 Carolyn 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 Carolyn was as insufferable to her future husband as is depicted in the movie, but I *hope* she wasn't.)
There is no relationship between matrilineal and matriarchal. Matrilineal is just the way descent is reckoned. It has nothing to do with which sex rules.
When it comes to men and women there are a lot of factors, since you’re literally talking about everybody, or at least everybody straight.
However it’s becoming just extremely difficult for men to navigate around women.
Women say they’re not a monolith, and then give all men instructions that they all are supposed to follow at all times. It’s often contradictory, and not because it’s different women saying different things. It’s a woman saying one thing, and then a week later saying the opposite.
You’re not supposed to judge someone on how many people they’ve slept with, unless the number is too low. Or if it’s higher than yours.
You’re supposed to be confident but not aggressive. What does confident mean to women? They don’t know. But don’t be aggressive, except when they want you to be aggressive, which they won’t tell you.
I was telling an anecdote once about how women want you to be vulnerable and that it’s ok to cry. I told the story about how when my brother broke his neck and everything was going to shit, he cried once in front of his girlfriend and she completely stopped respecting him after that. My point was women say they want you to be vulnerable, but they don’t actually. So I told a vulnerable story. Take a wild fucking guess what happened when I did.
Is it possible you’re cherry picking two particularly inept films? I must confess I don’t watch a lot of movies, but could there be movies where the misandry isn’t so blatant?
I don’t post on YouTube that I can remember. Maybe I did, but it’s probably been very few posts. Mostly, I watch trailers on YouTube.
In the other hand, I’m skeptical about drawing broad conclusions about society from movies. Movies are supposed to be dramatic and escapist, not real life.
One of my favorite studies looks at survival on tv shows of cpr. 60% of patients survive cpr in tv shows; real life is less than 5%
You really think I watched those two movies, and then drew conclusions about the current state of the culture based on what happens in those two movies? Are you that dense?
You wrote about two movies and drew conclusions about the broader culture in real life. If there are other data sets that support your arguments, by all means, share them. If it is movies alone, then that may not be enough.

we have reached peak progressive feminism. Men increasingly want nothing to do with these creatures.

We are dealing with promatriarchy dictators who want us dead or enslaved.
(((promatriarchy))) Hint Judaism is matrilineal.
There is no relationship between matrilineal and matriarchal. Matrilineal is just the way descent is reckoned. It has nothing to do with which sex rules.
Let me guess, you are a Jew?
No.

give a man a handjob, he cums for a day. teach a man to jerk off, he will cum for the rest of his life
Have you ever read a blog by a man named Dalrock, you remind me of him.
Yes, years ago

Hey, I remember you from YouTube! You specialized in asking stupid questions there, too. Hasn't it gotten old yet?

No, that's not what I did. I refuse to believe that your reading comprehension skills are so poor.
I’ll have to have another look
And so we find ourselves... at the beginning of a new AGE
I think both men and women have given up.
I saw _The Fall Guy_ as written around the stunts, framed by a perfunctory mystery plot, with a _gotta get back on the horse_ subtext.
Of course, I’m biased because Emily Blunt was in it.
