And that's the sentiment it comes down to. Successful, professional, deep thinking men are screwed, when women don't need them.
The only two things women now need men for are social validation, and to increase their lifestyle. Making men essentially consumer assistants that keep up appearances. An expendable accessory.
Great distillation of the cold reality from what we've stated.
Thumbs up, and notice that Conquistador also has the nuance of "increasing" lifestyle (they already have such a high standard as a default) as opposed to just lifestyle, which has been their biological imperative since time immemorial.
I'd like to point out also that the one savior would be the religious niche, and it is a form of social validation, but it's been degraded so much by outside inputs and wealth, it's really just so rare unless the parents are strict and the daughter has the constitution to truly be obedient and fend off distractions, bad friends , etc.
That's why I don't jump on the divorce and anti-marriage comments as much. I understand that these sentiments are true by and large, but that's because men also have become faithless and poor leaders in this regard as well; kids don't see a believing father. If you have committed parents who are of the same religious background (truly, not just in self ID, but are devoted and are examples of it) you are not in the 50% divorce camp, even in America. It's night and day, something like only 10% or so, a 5-fold difference to a fairly low occurrence overall.
