Why are men expected to provide and protect?

[Prynce]

Not when that is all you are reduced to.

Thank you.

I want to be more than just that

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

as a person in general, male or female, why wouldn't you want to? it's a basic product of having pride in yourself and those you affiliate yourself with.

if there is someone you don't want to do that for then maybe you shouldn't be fukking them

A partner and friend

I don't mind helping out my woman and of course im gonna protect my kids

But the issue becomes when a woman expects me to do those things based on me being a man. Like I owe her something cause she chooses to pay me attention.
A woman's company isn't worth giving up my life in my head

A lot of women feel they shouldn't do shyt than be in house sex and a mother
I just expect more out of a person. I wouldn't be friends with a bum ass nikka who doesn't do shyt for me. Why do it with a woman?

With all that being said

I can't disagree with you. If you are bringing everything, and the chick think sex is her only role.

I've spent my entire life working to make something of myself and now that my fruits are starting to bloom. I realize that I don't wanna trade my resources or life just to have sex with a woman. It's not a good trade

Might I suggest prostitutes?

The fact that you equate women to dogs is crazy.

It also explains a lot.

You’re partner is one thing I think you should as a man take responsibility for protecting that person.

I disagree with the whole random women thing though

 

[Prynce]

I can co-sign that that’s why you should ignore them ( the feminist type) But if you’re with a female and don’t want to be a provider or protector

You Can’t call yourself a man.

Why is being a man hinged on providing and protecting?

we're way more than that

 

[GreenGhxst]

that's some selfish thinking

I don't think it is

Thread lowkey hilarious

Not to mention the #1 thing black females brag about these days is being educated, well if you’re that educated why do you need a man to provide for you?

Ideally, no one should want anyone to provide for them, because we should all be able to do so ourselves.

I think women should be able to do what they feel is best for them in their life. But so should men. The issue is these same people who advocate for fluid gender roles for women don't extend the same notions for men or even worse will want to ridicule men who want to be stay at home ect. It's all very spiteful and confused. Equality is a myth.

a man telling u that you're thick is not as bad as a man slapping your woman


perhaps not growing up in a family has made it hard for u to be a team player, which is fine, just don't get into any relationships or form a family.

So I should be denied relationships because I don't see the purpose for providing for a woman

Internets is crazy

Someone has nothing to add but wants attention lol

"You're living a ho' life
I ain't back and forth with you bytches"

 

[⠝⠕⠏⠑]

I don't feel a need to protect nobody except my Mom's lol

Then you probably don't need to be with anybody but her. And I'm not being snarky.

Relationships take a lot of effort. If u can't imagine caring about someone and selflessly investing in their well-being and/or personal growth AND listening to them and allowing them to do the same for you, then relationships probably aren't for you.

And there is nothing wrong with that. There are chicks who only want sex b/c they feel exactly the same way you do about men, or feel that men are liabilities and more trouble than they are actually worth.

Actually some people are asexual these days b/c they just can't be bothered. I'm a live and let live person so nobody should try to shame u into a relationship. That won't benefit u or the person that has to deal with ur lack of excitement at the prospect of being with them.

Relationships are supposed to be fun and havens for individuals away from the world. Human interactions that teach us about ourselves and provide healthy companionship, love, stability and support. All of which research has indicated leads to a better quality of life.

I wouldn't be able to imagine being with somebody who felt burdened by my presence. I wouldn't want that for anybody. Be happy and don't worry about others expectations if the trappings of relationships seem to be too much.

this is hilarious...fukking hilarious

It is tho
He look like he screamed before getting behind her.

I said I did'nt want to trade resources for sex and you told me to do exactly that

 

[I'm Blackman]

You should only provide and protect for a woman that's worth providing and protecting for, if you ever meet a woman that you feel is worth that your views will change its simple, all of them are not worthy.

Bingo. Meet the right one.

What the hell you talking about?

And Why can't I have a relationship without giving up my independence and personal goals?
