I center 0 men in my life. Every friend (women only) of mine is a high-value woman (smart, successful, emotionally intelligent because they have to know how to be empathetic towards my chaotic ass lmao). What do I spend my time doing? Reading, exercising, educating myself, creating, and ultimately trying to make the world a more equitable place because poverty and global colonialism continue to fuck things up. Also, I have known since I was a kid that I would never want to have kids because I HATED interacting with them. Childfree is the way to go — I am definitely retiring early (a high-paying job is guaranteed after graduation) and having much more time for myself and beautiful friendships this way!
Never ever care what men think about you. I don't, because I know most men objectify women and do not know how to respect women's complex philosophical thoughts and characters. They sexualize and reduce women to women's appearance, which is abhorrent. Thankfully I have NEVER cared what men thought about me. That would be such an unnecessary distraction that puts the power in men's hands. In fact, stop thinking about what ANYONE thinks of you. Ultimately, nobody remembers anybody but themselves.
I used to have some male friends who genuinely were 100% platonic (also smart + emotionally intelligent and rare). We just have drifted away because we are in college, BUT I know I could happily reconnect with them one day. I don't stress myself about this because they can come and go -- I will always have happy memories of them. Anyways I am more invested in women all the time.
I am a voluntary celibate and will HAPPILY be a voluntary celibate for the rest of my life. Ladies, keep your standards high!!! I am SHOCKED that any of you are even going on dates with un-handsome men. No offense, but I think men being very handsome (along with an emotionally intelligent personality) is a must-have. How can you be in a relationship with someone if you are going to look at them often and they are not nice to look at? Beautiful men tend to be more confident and will NEVER try to undermine your confidence, unlike some scrotes who will try to say negative things about you because they are insecure (YUCK!). I am one of those people who was blessed with ugly duckling syndrome, so I have a very mentally enriching life now from my past endeavors and my ongoing strength. Yet, I also am lucky to have a captivating outer appearance. I expect AT LEAST the same from any man who wants my attention. And I would be more than happy to stay with my ladies and cat friends for the rest of my life.
I consider myself a high-value person because I am big on self-improvement and do not use social media in my life (just using FDS — a forum — to spread this message of self-reliance and women-only friendships!). I am also a critical thinker who sees through much of the world's BS.
***In this day and age where a lot of women are brainwashed to use brain-dead apps like TikTok, a lot of us FDS women SHOULD take up the responsibility to initiate more conversations with fellow women and take them out. I do this even when I am low on money. My point is, we need to learn to be the bigger people in a world where some women are taught to not care about women-only friendships. This tactic has been successful for me because a lot of my ladies really appreciate my honesty and how we spend our time together. It's hard at first because of the anti-indoctrination (getting rid of brainwashing) that we have to go through to learn that fellow women have a life just as complex and understanding as our own. But you MUST take initiative. Sitting back and expecting people to befriend you when you have this knowledge of beautiful women-only friendships is a sign of ENTITLEMENT. So do me a favor and, after reading this post, go text or call or email that woman role model of yours and get in touch to enrich each other's lives!
Yes, we need more posts like this!!! also agree with you on tiktok, its meant to shorten our attention span and fries our brains and makes those with ADHD have worse symptoms.
