I can respect it even if I don’t necessarily agree with all of it. A lot of men put themselves in those situations they aren’t ready for or want no part of, so if you choose not to do those things then more power to you.
Yeah i mean not everyone is cut out for that family life and that is ok as long as u not out here planting seeds u have no intention of nurturing.

But if the intent of this message is supposed to be some kinda :umad: at women then it just comes off as bitter and corny and kinda feminine on some "on my ignore list u go" vs just putting them on ignore and KIM.

Breh dont wanna support a family thats cool, but no reason to be a dikk head about it.

The central element of manhood has always been about being able to survive. Reproduction is just a cornerstone of continued existence, not manhood.

A man survives, defines his environment, and shapes the way in which he wants to live in his environment. If he wants to be alone, that's his prerogative, and if he wants a family, that too is his decision, but those decisions are based on his will, not anyone else's perceptions or ideals.

You aren't a man if you cannot survive on your own or define your life's mission. If a man lives by the ideals of others because, "that is what they said a man is", he is not a man, rather still a boy.

And, if you live in a society where the population of people are not worth a damn, you trying to lead them because "I do hard things" is not wise or smart.
You are operating against nature at that point and will likely suffer more than you need to in life. Those people are likely dead once the lights, 9-1-1, and clean water stop running. You are leading a bunch of defiant carcasses essentially and trying to drag them along with you while minimizing your potential when you should be maximizing your potential as a man.

But most folk will learn at the end of their lives when looking back and realizing they wasted it on a bunch of worthless and ungrateful people.

:francis:

I think our point of contention is in how we view ourselves.
Do we view ourselves as solitary beings or as a part of a larger whole.

To me, men get our identity from our tribe.
Our manhood is determined by our contribution to our tribe.
Being a father, husband, protector, leader, builder, etc.. are all defined in relation to someone or something else.
Which is why I said the very essence of manhood is being beholden to others.
I don't subscribe to the idea that we come into this world alone.
We come into this world an extension of a family unit.
And our family unit is typically embedded in a tribe.
So we have two obligations that we are beholden to at our inception.
So this goes beyond just companionship and mates.
The purpose of which is to help perpetuate the tribe, btw.
So we survive inasmuch as our tribe survives.

To your point, of which I don't disagree, there have always been men that have been lone wolves.
Struck out on their own and decided to forsake any obligation to any tribe.
And if you want to make that choice, more power to you.
I think its a more challenging road to walk.
But taking a meta look at history and civilization, these type of men are the exception and not the norm.

Humans are social beings. Almost no one is alone on purpose.
I aint saying i disagree, and u are correct. But at the same time there are exceptions to that and society is not doing itself any favors imo by trying to pressure or force it. Some folks really are just better off flying solo dolo for their own good just as much as everybody else's. :manny:

We are indeed social creatures but we should all strive to be comfortable in our own skin and love ourselves enough to feel satisfied in our own company. just my opinion.

It's outside of what's considered a societal norm so that's just a natural reaction. It's how I live my life though and I love it lol. I deal with women but I'm not doing serious relationships. They not wasting my time and stressing me lol.
Noooo you can't be!

It's not possible for a man to give back to his community and not be trauma bonded to other miserable married men and fathers.

You MUST live life a SPECIFIC way or you're doing it wrong! And you're also a homosexual or whatever.

I'm sure if an attractive humble girl came up and was interested in him and wanted to start a life together he wouldn't be like nah I'm good. As long as you are a heterosexual male you can keep acting like you don't care but deep down you do.
Or you can genuinely want companionship and still not want the fukking pressure of having to provide for a family, keep a woman happy and living up to somebody else’s standards

Why does it have to be either or?

You can can have companionship without being the sole provider.

How can it be companionship if you don’t want to contribute to your partners happiness.

Most people have standards in a companionship. Hard to say you want that but don’t want to meet a realistic standard.

I'm not against anyone living how they want on their own terms. But I think many are doing so begrudgingly instead of authentically.

I think many Men today want things and experiences that they:
- don't want to work for
- maintain or
- except the expectations that go along with whatever desire they have.

Nothing wrong with raging against the machine. But I don't think all these internet movements are based off real philosophical and moral basis to how hyper capitalism has degenerated Men.

Which is why I said the very essence of manhood is being beholden to others.
I stopped reading here lol

You don’t need a wife and kids to be responsible for family. I’m an only child and my mother has a dementia like condition. If something happens to my dad it’s highly likely I’ll have to spend a significant amount of time and resources caring for her. Plenty of ways to hold it down in a non traditional sense. I see nothing wrong with black men today eschewing fatherhood (responsibly, via vasectomies and condom use), especially given how bleak the next 5-15 years look.
