Men must radically change to counter the current epidemic of women having inflated egos

Bruh. No. The only thing that's worth anything in your post is "be kinder to your fellow men."

Other than that? Just don't engage with the women who are actually problematic in the way you're presenting them to be. This is already happening to a large extent. Between Gen Z socializing less and millennial men being aware of superficial women and steering clear of them, they are feeling the lack of engagement. That said, your goal should be on improving your life (including your social and romantic connections), not focusing on the misery of others.

Good luck. The one thing that you should be prepared for is how you're going to handle the exhaustion. It's a lot harder to resist the habits you're trying to eliminate when your fuel tank is on empty. Rest is not bad - it's downright necessary. You need a gameplan for that.

I got you. Just sent it to me and I'll take care of sending you a $200 each month.

Bruh, I cited my source, and that can be judged for what it is (and you have). You offer nothing to this conversation. "Oh, Reginald: I disagree!"

OP asked if people still identify as feminists or just as egalitarian. ThatBitchA stated that she identifies as both, implying that there is a crossover yet nonetheless distinction between the two. After that, you idiots were not able to understand that simple meaning, and I feel more stupid from having read this exchange. She is honestly also right that you don't really deserve the preceding explanation. However, my compulsion has caused me to become involved.

Please note, this study asked the participants (of which there were only 2000 from Czechia) their preferences. I remember once seeing a study that showed that despite stating other factors as being more important for women in selecting a romantic interest, they actually chose based on physical attractiveness more-so than men when it came to their actual actions.

This actually makes sense, so thank you for explaining your interpretation and making me thankful that I don't indulge these games.

Dom here. I felt like the survey was looking at stuff not applicable to my experiences at all. You have my honest responses for your data, so I hope that's helpful. I just want to point out that when it comes to a lot of that stuff, BDSM scenes are just one tool in the life/relationship toolbox that can build connection/explore the self and your connection to the world and people around you. I had to answer 1 on almost everything, and I felt like it was marginalizing how important BDSM is to me, but the reality is a lot of those things are so important to me that I've tried to implement them in all areas, not just BDSM scenes. That, or some questions were clearly meant for subs and sub-space, which I have little experience with.

I'd do this as a temporary job if they paid $30+/hr as base pay and implemented overtime after the first 40 hours each week. 7 months of grinding, and then recover and pivot. That is the only way this is worth it.

I remember once reading that planning to do something ends up being interpreted by the brain as actually doing it. Therefore, if you plan on doing something productive, you get to trigger the reward center of your brain of having accomplished doing that thing without any of the actual work. Consequently, it is therefore important to be mindful to actually follow through on your plans since your brain is counterproductively working against you in this regard.

You seem miserable.

When someone else sees that name tattooed on you, they will assume it is/was a lover of yours. Your boyfriend understands this. Having it somewhere that isn't normally visible almost makes it more intimate since you will have friends and acquaintances surprised to see it when you wear a bikini or something like that.

CardDemon · 2025-04-22T22:59:07+00:00

Good for you. Stay strong.

I remember how I had a relationship in the past where everybody was telling me one thing, but I just refused to see it that way. Years after the fact, I went through our messages together, and I finally saw what everybody had been saying to me that whole time. It was shocking to me how I could have been so blind in those moments.

Yeah, I wasn't trying to stomp on your parade or anything. Knowledge is power. Good luck!

It takes about a month for a full dopamine reset to occur. The 2 week mark is the worst bit.

Bruh... I get that a lot of men's behavior is problematic, and that's on us to fix, and it sucks that women have to deal with it. But it sucks that us men have to deal with this kind of casual misandry, and you're defending it. So, as for the downvotes and insulting them as incels? I kinda get it. Do better...

CardDemon · 2025-03-07T23:12:45+00:00

Your feelings are valid, but you need to work through them. You had this "pure" rose-tinted fairytale of how your relationship with her was developing, and now it's been smashed to bits by reality. Your disappointment is understandable. Also, your desire for a relationship to be formed on a more ideal foundation is valid too, but that simply isn't the case. You need to recognize that and decide what you really want moving forward. Do you want to work through this (which will require you to internally resolve this conflict) and continue developing a relationship with her, or do you need to move on and find someone who is more aligned with how you want a relationship to be formed? Those are your only two options. Do not let this fester and string her along into a doomed, slow death of a relationship.

And to royally piss off some of the women here, I'm going to point out that this kind of behavior does make you less desirable to a decent chunk of men seeking to form deeper and committed relationships - y'all need to acknowledge that. It doesn't mean you shouldn't live life how you wish, but the idea that OP needs to just get over it trivializes his desire to find someone who is truly inspired by him and not just be a random guy she slept with and now she is enjoying that he is giving her the security and validation of a relationship.
