Ugh.... I feel so sorry for that lady. She's clearly had a major blow to self esteem from her bf and his family. I hope she does the right thing and tell him to gently caress off and hangs out with her cousin, and hopefully leaves her boyfriend in the processMotherfucker posted:hot take but not all dudes suck rear end and as cute as it is to say 'kill all men' now 20 years down the line there's gonna be a significant sect of grown rear end heterosexual women forming the bizzaro world version of incels unable to reconcile the dissonance of blaming all men for their problems while simultaneously wondering why they were universally passed over.

It makes a lot of sense too, you can kind of see it in effect with traveling (especially going abroad for school), where women tend to leave on their own and make new friends there, where men tend to go if their existing close friend group is going too.

Haven't people been saying this for decades though? It kind of starts to sound like Incel sour grapes. "Women keep saying they don't need no man but give em 20 years and watch them devolve into bitter spinster with no life". As Pick implied, it sounds like this is more likely to happen to men.

of course women do better alone than men. women make real connections and actual friends, while men are socialized to get all actual intimacy, emotional as well as sexual, from their romantic partner while all their “friends” are merely a rotating stable of empty drinking acquaintances

^this, and unfortunately the anecdotes in this thread don’t quite measure up to the studies being done on the issue, even in masculinity studies. Men crave intimacy; don’t know where to get it from. Panfilo posted:Haven't people been saying this for decades though? It kind of starts to sound like Incel sour grapes. "Women keep saying they don't need no man but give em 20 years and watch them devolve into bitter spinster with no life". Incels and a lot of men don’t understand the concept of “would rather be single” precisely because of that asymmetry in emotional labor that was mentioned by someone else above. A lot of men are so sure that women believe (or will eventually) their lives are bettered by being in relationships with men and the math doesn’t math on that, given all the studies saying that even women who work the same amount as their partners STILL don’t do an equivalent amount of household management labor.

Which makes me wonder if the MTGOW movement is just some cargo cult aping the behavior of women that are genuinely happy being single. If a man decides he doesn't want to define himself by being in a heterosexual relationship that's fine, but the MGTOW people seem to kind of miss the ultimate point about it.

Also, I mean even if you aren't all balled up on yourself emotionally and you feel the want or maybe need to connect to another man beyond the level of "drinking buddy" it's extremely hard given that you are an extreme minority and finding another dude to actually talk to is near impossible. I'm lucky in that regard but I know I've seen many guys whose entire male friend group is about as emotionally supportive as a stump. And not a nice stump either.

Toxic masculinity also likes to form arbitrary hierarchies and competition. An insecure man is going to have a hard time forming meaningful friendships to other men who he might seem superior to him. Instead of just being happy for other people, he's more likely to take his friends success (particularly with women) as some attack on him. I'm betting Incels don't have much of a social circle specifically because they alienate everyone around them while complaining they are the victim the whole time.

This seems to be fairly recent, Silent Generation men seemed to still have these very tight bonds. I agree about how sad it is. There are definitely still plenty of men in other cultures demonstrating tight friendship bonds (see Indian movies) but here, I notice that even the most progressive representations of male friendships have to like acknowledge the homoeroticism trope.

If incels can find each other online to scream about the perfidy of women together, they should be able to find each other online to make friends and share emotional support weirdly they're only interested in one of those

I mean you can watch that happen in real time on their forums, which supposedly formed because they’re all screwed in the same way. any tiny shred of happiness or acceptance is immediately and viciously attacked by the other posters with things like “wrong, you’ll never be happy stop fooling yourself” “LDAR u subhuman” etc, to say nothing of the reactions if one of them actually gets laid or starts a relationship
