There's been a new study RE: women giving up on marriage and it includes statistics on the combined household earning of a married couple (Obviously a higher number, it's two people) vs single person. No duh.
I've been noticing men using "poverty" as a scare tactic on why women should reconsider their single status (because they think poverty and being single are mutually exclusive) and that partnering up with a man is somehow going to magically fix that for a woman.
I've never not been in poverty. For a woman in poverty, partnering up with a man is just as bad. My mom has to be a wife, bangmaid, mommy to my also in poverty dad/her husband. So you don't really gain a partner, you just multiply the problem.
It's just two broke people. Me? I'm single and broke but I am also not a bangmaid while being broke. Everyday I do my daily activities to try and get out of poverty of course- trying to find a better job, career build, etc.
To me it's kind of terrifying that men are leaning into the current economic/political climate of course as a scare tactic that it's scary to be a single woman cause the poverty monster is gonna get-cha. Best to find the nearest single man and partner up. But... they're obviously MAKING it this way.
It's like ok passport bros didn't work, they already exhausted all the 3rd world country women now they want to seek out the in-house impovershed women.
The article: It's on the WJS but it's sub blocked. "Women are giving up on marriage" It's a recent study too.
I have never given up on marriage. But I did give up on 'MarRiAgE' a LONG time ago.
When a HVM presents himself, is ready, and we are right for each other and want to do legitimate Married life together, I'll consider it.
Most of those scrotes are just looking for a mother replacement and they see their mother as not much more than a cook and a maid.
