New dating ‘phenomenon’ proves traditional relationships are over

[Gefn]

Meet a man, get married, have a family.

That’s the timeline women have historically been sold as the most successful pathway to a happy life.

But despite that messaging being shoved down our throats at every conceivable opportunity, women have had enough.

New data has revealed women are sick of the constant pressure to follow traditional relationship timelines, with 1 in 3 now stating they’re “no longer focused” on achieving the societal milestones.

I wonder what results the same questions posed to young men would have produced?

The leftists have been pushing the destruction of the Family for decades...maybe they are getting their wishes.

Have you listened to anything I've said about my own life the past few years?

For every independent successful woman there are 100k single parent trailer queens. And all of them hit 40 looking around to find the married family women are the ones with the wealth.

Wealth is not what's on the table. It's what's around the table.

Traditional "gender roles" are out dated!  That's quite a statement and add to that the confusion over gender identity that seems to be so popular.  It's bat crap crazy.  Either you are male or you are female.  Identifying as both or half male half female is mentally unhealthy. This generation seems to think it's the popular way to be. It's just twisted.

I now understand more of your frustration @jmyrlefuller  -- please don't give up on traditional values. If women aren't interested in marriage or a traditional relationship I see that as the fault of a very sick society. Again, I strongly fault the so-called 'women's movement'.  It has completely gone haywire and has added to the moral decay of our society.

BTW one of the physical therapists that I have just got married at 45 and said she finally met the man of her dreams.

@jmyrlefuller It would be difficult to not be familiar with your ongoing lament, and you have my sympathies,but you are only one man, and not, statistically speaking, a large enough study population.

Divorce not only destroys families, it unconsolidates wealth. Someone is expected to finance two households, and discretionary spending, sometimes even survival money, is cut short as a result. 

Making divorce easy, meant people were not as careful about who they married in the first place. Aside from property settlements, custody, and alimony/support, a do-over was easy to get. Of course, no one factored in the economic strain or human costs of that.

Scorched Earth Policy
@Scearpo
The flaccid asexual emptiness of millennial culture is the direct result of cohabitating male and female friendships in a middle to lower class environment which possesses none of the aristocratic eccentricities to normally justify mixing women and men together in a platonic environment.

When manifested in the office drone white collar/service industry crossover of the average millennial urbanite, you get a facade of equanimity masking a sneering underlying bitterness and hostility. “But Scorch everyone’s just vibing out! What’s your problem, let people have fun chill out!”

No.

I’ve been balls deep inside of the average The Office tier Target furniture core marketing degree craft brewery barcade social circle via the barren womb of an anxiety medicated birth control ex-girlfriend’s friend group. I’ve looked these people in their swollen SSRI faces and seen the bare traced vestiges of what was once a soul. It’s a natural fact that the men in such a friend group are either:

A: Normal dudes quietly bored but playing nice because they’re someone’s boyfriend

B: Beyond unbelievably pussywhipped soft betas who haven’t acknowledged unrequited feelings for one of the girls

C: Closeted or uncloseted homosexuals who may have been MKULTRA’d into a sodomite lifestyle from living the real life equivalent of a sparkling water commercial diverse friend group for over decade

These people are not having fun, every  group I’ve ever encountered that does this cringe shit is populated by people who all constantly complain about how depressed and anxious they are while making ha ha ironic jokes about wanting to die, living timid trembling lives with little to no jouissance.

The millennial is arguably the most unfortunate generation in recent history. They represent the apex of a devastating culture war and the most direct results of spiritual castration with the least amount of pushback antithesis elements among their ranks.

Besides the obvious insufferable premise of an entire performative event being built around a shitty pun turning into the accidental idolization of a mutilation blood sacrifice cannibal child rapist reptilian adrenochrome junkie, the video is just one of many seemingly inconsequential irritations that the average millennial presents. Theirs is a world of nagging rationalizations and pseudo sensibilities. Sometimes you need to take a step back and trust your gut instinct. The only thing standing in between you and the total domestication of your bloodline into the human equivalent of a Labradoodle is your ability to say “Nah this shits gay” and not be crucified by your entire friend group for it.

The murmuring Millenial male who goes along with the soft Human Resources tier lululemon longhouse of burgeoning mids in his Bumble built friend group is the modern eunuch. If you’re a young man and your friend group does shit like this and you’re enjoying yourself then by all means discard this entire post as some wackadoodle rant from a bitter incel or whatever, live your life and be happy.

But if you’re in a friend group that does shit like this and you feel some resonance with what I’ve said, if you’ve known the quiet turbulence of bored rage listening to the forced wine drunk laughter of your 400th session of Cards Against Humanity, then for your own sake, please free yourself.

If you’re charming and have good taste, take absolute control of your friend group and filter it down into something meaningful.

If it’s too far gone or you’re not capable of that, slowly cut yourself off. Pursue something meaningful, make more money, become stronger, faster, more violent, seriously learn a new skill. You are WASTING your TIME.

If you’re a young woman, stop wearing spandex, never watch another episode of Friends again, don’t smoke weed, don’t take SSRIs, don’t take melatonin, don’t take birth control, gay guys aren’t your friends, and if you don’t have other female friends it’s because something is wrong with you.

Millennial humor is so empty. Their relationships are empty.
