Gender equality

I agree, as well. If the sexes wish to be equal, we have to take equal parts in everyday life, which means picking up the tab or at least being able to. I don't really don't mind paying for the lady and or gentlemanly gestures, though. That's just tradition, for me and I expect nothing in return.

They even have palimony, which is alimony for cohabitation. If you live with your gf, she can come after you for it. Crazy, isn't it?

OMG! I am so thankful the women I've been involved with had no idea this exists.

*whew*

I would expect something in return in a relationship. Because there were lady gestures, like taking care of your man. Something modern women forget about. It doesn't mean I'm going to jot down notes on what the person has done, but I'd want a constant reciprocal relationship, or else why bother. I think it's better for two people to have their own place anyways.

And yea, that does exist, just like men paying child support for kids that aren't theirs.

[Frisky The Wolf Lord]

My relationships are never that in depth as far as reciprocation is concerned. I'll take part in many "things" for a woman that men are "supposed" to do, according today's culture, simply out of a force of habit. It's just how I was raised, so it's easy for me, akin to a second nature. I don't expect much in return, either. I really don't need her to "always" cook, clean, and pay tribute to me, sexually. Just do as I ask.........when I ask you. If I don't bother to make a point of it, do as you wish, because besides paying for the date and being an absolute gentleman, I'll do whatever it is a I please.

Oh yes, I know all too well about paying child support for offspring that aren't mine. I've been threatened with it before, but the law is, at least, respectable enough to side with me, in those cases. I don't know about other regions in the country, but in Il, if you address this issue early with the correct documentation and you prove that the child[ren] isn't[aren't] your own, you wont have to pay single penny to the female.

I think it's an important part, one side isn't more entitled to something than the other. That's where the idea that one side gets that idea, is because in this society guys are expected to do all the pleasing just because. "Gentlemen" is used as a technique to get guys to do things. How many ladies do you see? Girls are out slutting it up, doing drugs, and cussing nonstop? Only be a decent guy to a decent girl, otherwise, forget them.

This is why I say it's better for guys to live alone. Because the benefits you get from westernized women are so small to what you give up, there isn't a point. Sex? You can have sex and fun, and clean your own place easily without the extra cost and loss of freedom. Not to mention when you move in many want to gain weight and want to do less and less. If a person isn't going to make it worth my time, why bother? A relationship is a two way thing, not a one way servitude. I might as well be single and get whatever little benefit I would have gotten anyways. I don't think girls are entitled for a guy to pay either. Women work and go to school like guys. If a person is equal they shall participate equally and contribute equally. Not get a free ride. I would only participate in a relationship (if I were trying to) if a person was going to be an equal. Not a princess. There are no "man roles" or "woman roles" there are things that certain genders are more suited for, but you can't have your cake and eat it to.

Yea, it's pretty sad. You have to get them within a certain amount of time, but what many women will do is they'll serve your papers late or to the wrong address and you're forced to pay regardless.

Be careful out there.

Problem is that there are too many of them nowadays, so why be a gentleman to them?

[Coolest thing Alive]

So you can phuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!! 'Course, most hoes don't want a gentleman. But many of'em do. All hoes aint 100% the same. They all hoes at they core, but different stroke for different folks.

They want a gentleman later after after they've slept around with every guy in town and want someone to pay their bills.

[Coolest thing Alive]

Yeah, payin bills is a step too far. I'll pay for some dates and treat you kindly, but as far as fixin a hoe's life, no dice. A hoe know better than to try that shit with me. But I can say for a fact that I've never met anyone that tried to take it that far with me.

Exactly, it isn't your job. I myself wouldn't pay for the date, it's just saying her company and time are worth more than yours.

I'm The Big Daddy C-Master, nobody's time is worth more than mine.

[Coolest thing Alive]

I really don't see it that way. Me payin for the date is just me being a stand up guy who is showin a female that I respect her and don't see you as one of these raggedy ass hood bitches. But I digress, all shall bow before the Legendary Pimp...CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MASTEEEEEEEEERRRRRR!!!!!!

I'm gonna send you a ticket to the Playas Ball. There, you will be the guest of honor.

I'm not a pimp by any means lol. I don't have any problems dealing with girls, and I don't have to pay for sex, but I'm not out tyring to pimp.

But, no, it really is saying that. A woman is in no way obligated to have things paid for and done for her for free, and when guys constantly bend over to give women free things they only hurt themselves, because then women feel entitled to it. That's why women here are so unbearable, they get to have their cake and eat it to.

You're a one of a kind man. Why is her company worth more than yours? Maybe she should pay for you?

[Frisky The Wolf Lord]

Rather people realize it or not, If you're not having random sex with fluzzies, you're paying for sex.

Pretty much, and 90% of guys do pay for sex. It's only the top 10% of men who have constant access to 90% of the women, the rest are left jumping through hoops for leftovers.

Cannot agree with all of that, bro. I agree that no woman (or person) is entitled to free shit. But payin for dinner and a movie aint "bendin over backwards". If it is, then the last thing that person should be doin is datin, they priorities all phucked up.

And man, all women aint the same, every woman I've dated knows damn well she aint entitled to shit. They know I do what I do cuz I'm a stand up guy. The person who 1st asks for the date, should be the one to pay for it, but that's just me.

Her company aint worth more than mine, I'm a God amongst men!;D I pay cuz it's the right thing to do. I don't call up my bois and ask'em to come to the club and then expect my homies to pay for everything. I asked you to join me, not the other way around, so I got it.

Gender as a statute should be done away with.

Jobs such as policemen, firemen, soldiers, construction workers etc have certain physical requirements. If any person meets them, then they're qualified. PERIOD.

None of this we need to have X% of women employed as policemen liberal nonsense bullshit that has permeated our society. You're either physically capable, or you're not. It doesn't matter what is between you legs.

Divorces, the same. Split anything that was acquired/earned during the marriage 50-50. What you had before is yours. Period.

Well let's get a few things straight. If you feel like taking turns paying that's fine, but even then, it should be roughly 50% is what I'm saying. If women are equal then they should contribute equally. It's bending over backwards because most guys (90%) spend lots of money on impressing women only to not get anything. They shouldn't be paying all of the time even if they get anything. Men pay for sex. Men jump through hoops for sex. This is what our society tells us to do. A man isn't a man if he doesn't get laid. The problem with this is the top 10% of men get 90% of the women (good looking men, rich men, famous men, etc.) so basing your masculinity on a woman's approval or your "game" (which is nonsense anyways) is just a way into disappointment for men. All this does is give the female more power because the rest of the 90% of men who don't have girls approaching them pussybeg and the women just drive up their price higher and higher. Men should control themselves and be smart about what they're doing.


I think the person who feels they have to pay for someone has their priorities f'ed up. You can get to know someone, so men paying for women in hopes of getting laid is nothing more than legal prostitution.

I used to pay for friends on things, but I don't. I got tired of that (not that I did it all of the time, just here and then as they didn't have any money). If you are an adult you pay for yourself, unless it is a "treat". Although guys say it is a treat, they are really just scared to not pay, because they feel they won't be laid.

I agree with you there. Problem with democracy is that there are more women than men so bs policies that hurt men like this are done. Men still as always have to do the disgusting, dangerous, and risky jobs, while women skip those and take jobs they want at lighter requirements.

I wouldn't bother marrying in any societies with anti-male laws like no fault divorce and the alimony and child support racket they set up. But the problem with the 50/50 deal is that men come into the relationship with a lot more, so they have more to lose. Making it a bad deal for them. There was a law passed in China where women can no longer take a man's possessions that were his before the marriage. The marriage rate dropped 30% in a *month*. Men need to be careful and guard their assets.

This is what is springing the herbivore movement as men go their own way.

I see what you sayin and I agree, niggas payin for dates to get laid aint that cool at all. No portion of a man's earnings should go to impressin a bitch. I only pay for dates with chicks I like and I know they like me, which is why I aint been on a date in, like, years. I can wrap my head around what you sayin from a horndog stand point. I date chicks who I've gotten know and I like to a degree to where even if we aint lovers, we still gone be tight homies and have been friends already for some time. That's were my confusion came in. I never paid for a date, where it was like, I seen you and a week later we date (i have, but that's a long time ago, like sophomore HS days). lol In my time, I had plenty of dates where a chick paid for me. Or her parents paid for us or she just cooked the shit outta some food at her house, vise versa and every way in between. I've done it all. And it just depends on the situation and mood.

Indeed, yo head is phucked up if you think you gotta pay for someone. If I gotta pay to get to know someone, knowin you aint worth my time. Which leads back to my view on the whole situation now. I mean, I don't pay for dates now cuz I'm "tangled up", but I aint got no problem with payin for somebody and we just kickin it and I already know you, and I asked you to come out with me. If I know you would do it for me, I'll do it for you. We just cool like that.

I pay for my friends alot when we go out an kick it, and they pay for me alot, too. My guys tho, they like my brothaz, and we all young and doin pretty well , so money is pretty damn immaterial to us at those points. Not gonna lie though, we do it big, which is why we don't do it often lol.

Money is not completely unimportant in my life, and I'm a pretty much a God Damn financial maven. I had to be an early age, but there is a time and place to be concerned about it. It's a part of life in the USA, when out havin fun with people you love and cherish, the last thing on your mind should be yo funds. Unless you indulgin in shit beyond yo means.

For me it was that mindset "C's rich! Let him pay for everything!" It's not my job to subsidize people. I am not a wallet. My friends are adults and need to manage their own money, they don't have any bills to pay whereas I have much. I don't believe in enabling other people's fiscal irresponsibility.

My money gives me options in life and freedom. It's the reason I don't have to worry about a job, or going to "work". I do what I want, when I want, and how I want. From experience the ones who say things like money and looks don't matter are ones who have none. I don't believe in being cheap, as I like quality, but I like a good value as well.

For instance, I don't eat out at all. I cook my own food. It's healthier and cheaper. If I buy things for entertainment, I make sure that they are things I can use over and over again, as opposed to just once. There's many ways to have fun for cheap. I watch movies at home as theatres are crowded and messy. I work out with very functional equipment which doesn't need to cost much. People need to also keep in mind to put a percentage away and save and invest for their future. Then maybe one day they'll never have to work for someone again. That makes me happier than a cheap time out. I also like to read, write, and be creative. Things that cost next to nothing and are very enjoyable.

That makes me happier than a cheap time out. I also like to read, write, and be creative. Things that cost next to nothing and are very enjoyable.

Agreed. 100%. That's why I hang with "my crowd", people like me. I can't stand broke "needy" niggas. It's okay to be broke and on hard times. But you shouldn't try to live beyond yo means offa others.

In this regard, I feel almost, completely opposite from you. But that's on a whole new topic.

I feel the same way about eating out and the theaters (I still go sometimes, like twice a year). I know I don't work out at all (did like hell in highschool, but that was years ago) shame on me . I'm also the same way with money. Again tho, people attribute me "never running out of money" since I was like 14, to me being "cheap"...and other things I'm not to proud of, unlike most young people I grew up with. And oh boy, staying in to read a book or do some drawing, that's just being "anti-social". But I have a crowd for people like that, too.

For me it was that mindset "C's rich! Let him pay for everything!" It's not my job to subsidize people. I am not a wallet. My friends are adults and need to manage their own money, they don't have any bills to pay whereas I have much. I don't believe in enabling other people's fiscal irresponsibility.

My money gives me options in life and freedom. It's the reason I don't have to worry about a job, or going to "work". I do what I want, when I want, and how I want. From experience the ones who say things like money and looks don't matter are ones who have none. I don't believe in being cheap, as I like quality, but I like a good value as well.

For instance, I don't eat out at all. I cook my own food. It's healthier and cheaper. If I buy things for entertainment, I make sure that they are things I can use over and over again, as opposed to just once. There's many ways to have fun for cheap.

I can't stand freeloaders.

What do you feel opposite on.

You're good to be smart with money, that's why you're the man.

Equal rights under the law? Yes.

Equal in terms of everything? No.

People aren't equal. If we were all equal, everyone would be as smart as the smartest person alive and as dumb as the dumbest person alive at the same time. Everyone would be as good at piano as Beethoven. Everyone would get a gold medal at the Olympics.

True equality is a falsehood; legal equality is a virtue. A lot of whiny, PC morons want to enforce true equality on everyone and enforce legal inequality to get their way. This is evil. We stifle geniuses so imbeciles can feel good about being imbeciles.

It would also remove the need for competition, if everyone was perpetually *equal* in every way.

It is evil. Saying women are equal and then giving them a myriad of handouts that men don't get and making very cruel anti-male laws is just wrong. People are what they achieve, nothing more, nothing less.

This "equal" thing came about when people cared about "feelings", but nobody believes it. Or else they wouldn't get jealous of the better looking, smarter, richer, and more popular person right next to them

True. Being a vegetable takes skill.

[Coolest thing Alive]

It actually does. I dare any person to try and become a vegetable without killin'emselves. It takes nigh-laser precision. But the great thing about it, it's equally hard form man AND women to accomplish.

I know a few vegetables and disabled people. Their disability just motivates them to try harder.

[Coolest thing Alive]

I know some vegetables and disabled people that where are so disabled, you can't tell if they're motivated at all. No j/k

Some probably aren't, they just don't see things the way we do.

Ostensibly, men and women ARE equal, before the law and the workplace.

In reality, women are enjoying a real gender INequality that is quite similar to the fabled 'patriarchy' that has existed off and on for 5000 years. At least, in the USA and most western industrialized countries.

Thing is, we SHOULD be equal, and while there will always be a few that disagree, most would say that is morally correct. But when you start making special victims of any one group, or special accommodations at the workplace, everyone suffers, eventually. Want that 5 foot 3 inch firePERSON to lift you out of a burning house? Sorry, no can do. And I got a problem with that.

It's an issue that dates back to the beginning of civilization as we know it. Genders that is, not firemen. Things may not have always worked well, but for the most part, except a few wars, things did work. There have always been injustices, there are injustices and there will always be injustices. We have a choice to make, and that's simple enough... are the genders EVER going to be equal? Perhaps, but it will take a long time. Are the genders the same? No, and anyone that ever tries to tell you differently, is full of it. Will they ever be the same? Might happen, if someone invents an artificial womb, and figures a way to make a baby with DNA from only one person.

Hope I die before I get old.
