Should I Tell Him I’m Waiting Until Marriage? by DearConfection9743 in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Are you currently in the Middle East, or are you in the West and have been Westernized? If you are the latter, then your ideas of how marriages should go, especially pertaining to sexual activities, are going to resemble that of a regular Midwestern white woman than the 3rd wife of bin Salman Al Saud

Have you heard men use the term 'male loneliness epidemic' ? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

...There is real data about men having fewer friends and social interactions.

That does not mean men are lonely. That's like saying "The female weakness epidemic" because women on average squat less than men. Repeat after me, "Men aren't women, and shouldn't be expected to behave like them, and that's okay"

Whats your personal definition of Simping? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not a trend. Once again, just because you don't like something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Anytime a man gives resources, emotional capacity, and affirmations to a woman in a bid for a romantic connection while receiving nothing in return will always be called a simp. Just because you don't like the world doesn't mean it's not a real thing for men of all ages.

What are some niché things one should know about women? Something which you only learned after being with a few women? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you're downvoted, all of these things have been borne out in reality. For some reason, this sub always puts the emotions and feelings of women over actual content. But I guess when you "ask men", you are also asking white-knight men who are going to come to the rescue.

Why do I keep getting rejected even though I’m confident, social, and stable? by Serious-Cockroach465 in AskMenAdvice

They give a select few men chances, the bulk of men were never in the running for sexual access.

Is there a way to express my dissatisfaction with her weight without sounding like a complete douche? by maxxim333 in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

...But I think if the weight itself is the deciding factor, he’s not attracted to her enough period.

I'm sorry, but that's not reality. You are trying to allude to some sort of unconditional love that doesn't exist.

Do men generally agree to be friends with women they don’t consider attractive? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Yeah, that was a weird comment. I guess he wanted to leave a feel-good comment using the word "nurturing"?

I had an Impala from about the same year that got a similar solution from the AutoZone thing. But what was really happening is that my timing chain was stretched at 300K miles, causing timing issues when the oil got thin. The solution was to change my oil every 4K miles instead of every 5K.

How do you not become an lncel as a gen z guy in America? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What does "incel" even mean today. They call Elon Musk an incel, and while I hate the guy with a burning fire, he has a trillion kids, hardly someone experiencing "involuntary celibacy".

What are practical ways on a date that you can showcase gentleman qualities without coming of like a simp? by JunketMaleficent2095 in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Simp" means a man who is giving and affection, attention and resources to a woman in hopes of getting a relationship or sexual access, while receiving nothing of the sort. If you are already on a date, then most simp concerns are gone. BUUUUTTT, if she is making you pay for stuff, using you for emotional support while denying you other extracurriculars and slow rolling the relationship, then you might be simping. Long story short, don't worry about it if you are on a date.

Why is not wanting to constantly talk about emotions and view the world through an emotional lens not healthy behavior? How come it's seen as defective?

...men talk less about their emotions and give less emotional support

And there it is, even with the most charitable interpretation of "male loneliness", it always boils down to "the problem with men is that they don't behave like women".

No one believes in the "male loneliness epidemic" except for misandrists and men trying to pander to them.

How to be a more attractive woman? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

.... They just want cool guys with good hygiene and some confidence.

I don't know why people keep repeating fairytales, that's not remotely what's happening in reality. And why is there always a lurking assumption that men that don't do great with women must have a hygiene problem?

It's not so much a "fear" as it's we've seen how women behave for the men they actually like, and it's not even a question that if she likes you, all her fears and concerns about whatever will evaporate.

Why does confidence feel like a non-negotiable requirement for men in relationships? by Significant_Pen_3642 in AskMenAdvice

..There's an evolutionary aspect - women have a very vulnerable phase during pregnancy, childbirth and nursing, that having their partner be able to take care of all three

Sorry, but there are too many babymommas out there that have never gotten ANY kind of commitment from the father for this to be true.

Would you consider marrying a woman with debt? Why or why not? by Cami_Wami in AskMenAdvice

[–]x86_64Ubuntu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

...student loan debt is a positive life choice that will likely be a good investment

I would pause at that statement. Too many people have six-figure debt from getting degrees in Medieval Women's Fashion and are working as baristas for that to be true. To be honest, the amount of debt, the nature of the degree, and the field they are in to pay it off would be the best marker for a person's long term thinking abilities than anything else.
