12. Men think women owe them something

Mar 2025

they see a woman that is a total stranger and doing well in her career and just living her life and they see her as betraying them or committing some wrong against them.

They don't have a job or girlfriend/wife becsuse of the woman described above. Because she is taking jobs and there no longer relies on marriage for future economic security. She gets married if she wants and maybe she just prefers to date but it's not a priority.

The conservative "manly man" stereotype is actually not attractive to many women at all. Most women tend to be into what these guys describe as "soy boys".

In the end it comes down to lack of self improvement.

Look at guys that DO work on self improvement and they don't have this resentment.

The one thing I worry about is that these losers life will continue to suck under Trump and they will take it out on random women.
