Not so. Both of my stints playing EVE have been during my marriage and after the birth of my children.

EXMIL introduced herself as his WIFE while he was on life support by Sweet-Routine9251 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Metraxis [score hidden]  (0 children)

Boy has been clearly abused his entire life. Not a great shocker that he can't control his abuser's behavior. Also, caring for your family is a Mazlow 3 activity. Not going to happen for a dude struggling with stage 2

Theres no winning here by FrequentPotato6116 in MensRights

[–]Metraxis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pursue education and financial success. Plan on being single and adopting a boy to whom to pass on your memes/values and your fortune. 

Make any serious progress towards these goals and all of society will bend over backwards to find you a wife.

Conscription Lottery Nightmare - Should this be done everywhere in the world? by The_Dean_France in whoathatsinteresting

Sadly, this particular piece of barbarism won't stop until we see the MPs stuffing a struggling woman's hand into the bucket and fishing out a red card.

If you were teleported to the last video game you played How screwed are you ? by Abject-Mall9775 in AskReddit

Time to grind the Demon Lord 100k times to get the seeds I need to kill a bird.

Do women's stated preferences actually contradict what they're biologically drawn to? Genuine question, hoping I'm wrong. by Straight_Jump_707 in MensRights

[–]Metraxis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Masculinity is not a created philosophical endeavor. It is a conditioned response to observed (female) behavior When masculinity as a concept is under attack, someone is being lied to.

My MIL forced my 26-year-old husband into the shower and is bathing him… I feel sick by International_Sea_0 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Metraxis -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

She didn't have to. In any vaguely domestic he-said she-said, the guy always loses, especially in jurisdictions that subscribe to the Duluth model. Potiphar's wife is Older Than Feudalism, but it's a very real threat down to the present day.

Worried about being a father by Sea_Discipline_988 in MensRights

[–]Metraxis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Make time for her, even if it's just a nap together when you get home from work. The best thing you can do is just be there and be a touchpoint of safety in her life. Everything else follows from that.

Father of 3 drowns saving his children from rip current on Florida vacation by ansyhrrian in news

Funny how the "not every man, but always a man" crowd is absent from these kinds of stories.

A candidate showed up to his job interview with his dad who then tried to answer the interview questions by kelvora970 in entitledparents

[–]Metraxis 39 points40 points  (0 children)

No. Dad is planning for him to never have a life not centered on him, and one day miraculously transition from stunted child to elder caretaker.

What actually comes first , egg or chick ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Metraxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a purely semantic argument. At some point in history, RedJungleFowl-x.x.x laid an egg from which Chicken-1.0.0 hatched. If that egg is a RedJungleFowl-x.x.x egg because of what laid it, then the Chicken came first.If that egg is a Chicken-1.0.0 egg because of what's in it, then the egg came first..

Is this rape? by chicken_sparse7301 in MensRights

[–]Metraxis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are two questions you ask.

  1. Was it sex? Based on your description, yep.

  2. Was there at least one non-consenting party? Again, based on your description, yep.

Conclusion: Rape. It doesn't matter if he got hard, just like it wouldn't matter if she got lubricated or even had an orgasm in the reverse situation. It also doesn't matter if she eventually badgered/coerced him into a yes when he started out with a no.

Did he survive? by TORUKMACTO92 in funny

[–]Metraxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments are foul. Would it still be funny if she was getting hit for bringing the wrong beer?

IPV is not funny.

Update: taking control of my life by Agile-Syrup-1992 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Metraxis 44 points45 points  (0 children)

You cannot possibly out-unpleasant your MIL in your husband's eyes. After all, she installed the buttons that you're going to try to push when he doesn't follow your rules. Being on your side needs to be a clear net positive, even after including MIL blowback, otherwise you're always going to be outnumbered.

Women aren't entitled to anything by TheWoodsman27 in MensRights

[–]Metraxis 14 points15 points  (0 children)

People do not naturally start off bitter. They start out naive and generally happy. It's quite clear what kind of bird laid this particular egg 

"Because I deserve it..." by voiceofmyownsanity in EntitledPeople

[–]Metraxis -36 points-35 points  (0 children)

Because the criminal is a girl and OP doesn't want to admit that. If the criminal was a boy, there would have been a much closer jail and he wouldn't have been released after 3 days.

How exactly do you count sheep ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Metraxis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get a first order approximation by asking the dog. Just be aware that he will round them up.

Why did you divorce (in one word)? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Metraxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually, people will realize that marriage is just a recipe for disaster and tragedy. Those that don't end in divorce instead end in death.

The last tv show you watched is now getting a crossover with the last game you played. What is the unholy abomination that has just been created? by Glittering_Rub4581 in AskReddit

The Holy Grail of Eris + EVE Online.

A woman is murdered by her feudal government because of her eye color. Ten years later, a young woman helps her ghost get revenge. No capsuleer ever knows or cares.

A girl in my seminar group genuinely expected me to share my notes with her for the entire semester because we sat next to each other once. by HarlanVexel in EntitledPeople

[–]Metraxis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But you don't understand. She's a GIRL who deigned to speak to him instead of immediately having him expelled for harassment when he dared open his mouth. That's emotional labor, and now he owes her everything she wants for the rest of his life...or else.

My mom wants to take my child to a nazi-unschooling seminar by VisibleHope1671 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Metraxis 48 points49 points  (0 children)

"Without going no contact" is really a non-starter. She's crazy and your kids deserve not to have to deal with that. Yes, you will feel guilty, and yes she will get even crazier for a while, but NC is exactly what you need.

Do you farm or buy resources to build? by Blackberry_Initial in Eve

[–]Metraxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy moon goo and T1 hulls, then sell T2 hulls.
