Finally women are wising up to the fact that being with a man isn’t the prize it’s made out to be. We were never the “ball and chain” so many men loved to joke about. Women are dropping the dead weight males in their lives and living happily ever after while men suffer from a loneliness epidemic.
I communicated with my ex how many times I was unhappy and that I needed help around the house. He claimed I was nagging and when I left he said that it came out of nowhere.

Oh that's grim. I wonder if men use the "ball and chain" cliches (subconsciously) as part of the mass cultural agenda to make girls believe that they're the ones who want to get married. I think it's obvious that, without brainwashing, most women wouldnt want to marry. That's why our cultures created disney princess movies, and compulsory heterosexuality, and feminine behavior stereotypes, and the myth that wives trap husbands in marriage. Thise things arent supposed to to entice us to get married, theyre meant to convince us that we already want to get married.Men are the ones who actually want to get married, because they benefit from it. Since its a raw deal for women, we need to be tricked into it. Men pretend they dont want marriage though, to reframe it as if we necessarily want it.

I really believe "nag" is a misogynist slur. Its used exclusively against women to shut us up, devallue us, and dehumanize us. There needs to be consequences foe men who call women "nags".

I recently read a study that claimed that when men are of less mate value than the woman, they start to abuse her as a mate guarding tactic. This has been my experience in dating and marriage. They want to control and punish instead of work on themselves.
women are wising up to the fact that almost all men are of less mate value then they are. Generally, when an oppressed class starts to gain power, the class that Used to dominate them, becomes more aggressive. Apparently it’s supposed to eventually even out, but it can take decades.

Every relationship and dating experience I’ve ever had summed up right here!
There's a reason most divorces are initiated by women, and usually they do not want to get married again. Lol. I already work full-time and have a cat-child. I don't want a grown human child that I also have to work for. Heteronormative horseshit.
Same, probably not but with an ironclad prenup and the right logistics/financials … then and only then maybe. It would be hard to beat my current peace and happiness of living solo!
Exactly. Which is why I will never financially contribute to a household if I'm married to a man. The money I make (which isn't much anyway) is for me. In fact, I will be expecting to be financially compensated for the extra work I know I will be required to take care of. If a man isn't bringing a serious upgrade to the table, I'm remaining single. It's better to remain lower middle class as a single woman than be lower middle class stuck with a leech.

This Queen is absolutely correct about avoiding cohabiting with a man. One way ticket to hell!

Dick n balls are the "new" balls and chain literally and figuratively 🤣
I'm divorced and I don't think I'll be doing the marriage thing again.
