    The idea of a man wasting his time, money, and energy pursuing a relationship with a woman, who can never love him the way he wants to be loved, is absolutely absurd.

    Women are psychologically incapable of loving a man for who he is. Women subconsciously look for wealth, good looks, and high status in a mate. If a man loses his job, the woman will inevitably leave him.

    One of men’s greatest desires, to be emotionally vulnerable with a woman in a relationship, can never be fulfilled, because woman are sexually attracted to stoic, tough, strong, unemotional men. A man being emotionally vulnerable with a woman actually sexually turns her OFF, and she might cheat on this man or break up with him. The more the man is emotionally vulnerable with the woman, the more she is sexually turned off by him, and the chance she cheats on him or ends the relationship keeps increasing. Never believe a woman if she tells you she wants you to be more emotionally vulnerable with her, and never open up to her.

    Women show they don’t care about the man’s struggles or emotions.

    Women show they are narcissistic, solipsistic, delusional, and totally incapable of taking responsibility for their horrible decisions.

    It is impossible to build relationship equity with a woman, because women follow Briffault’s Law and their own in-built hypergamy. At any moment, a woman can end the marriage or relationship, and if the man is married, the woman can rob the man for the majority of his money and assets, and take full custody of any children. This is because the courts are corrupt and completely biased in favor of women.

    A man can go to jail based on the false sexual harassment, abuse, or rape allegations of a woman. A woman can send a man to prison with false sexual harassment allegations if they ask for her name and contact info, and she finds them physically unattractive or “creepy”. A woman can have consensual sex with a man, regret it, and then file a false rape allegation with the police and get the man put in jail, even if it is years later. Why would a man ever want to get involved with a woman in this environment?

    My urgent message to men is: never get married, don’t waste your time with women, and never live with a woman (certain areas consider co-habitation as marriage within the law, so you can be divorce-robbed by the woman even if you are not married to her).
