DATING REALITY 101 PEOPLE: Men want female fertility, women want male resources. For women, fertility decreases; for men, resources increase. Women are born rich, and quickly go broke. Men are the opposite. Men age like wine. Women age like milk. Wake up & mate up.

Thanks for the hot take from 1960. Today’s reality is the both men and women have an upward trajectory as far as resources go. Financial security doesn’t need to be obtained by finding a partner 10 years older Can’t say I blame you for being self serving.
Sigh. If a woman wants to be a good mother, someone has to pay the bills while she stays home and loves the children. How on earth is this hard to understand?

My sister works full time with benefits while her husband stayed home with their daughter (now in pre-K so he started part-time work). In this scenario, my sister contributed both ovaries AND income, yet her husband did neither. Are they bad parents?

Not ideal, no

I fail to see how my sister and her husband have done a bad job raising her just because my sister worked and her husband stayed at home. My niece is loved and well-adjusted. You would need the jaws of life to pry my BIL from his daughter. He loved raising her.

I wouldn’t say bad. I also have no idea how they are as parents. They most definitely love their kid I’m sure. In my experience though women are much better raising children in the early years, and women also tend to regret not spending that time.

Hot take from the 60s indeed. You don't want a partner, you want a servant.

I worked. My daughter graduated with Honors from a private university. She worked 3 jobs, volunteered regularly, and is getting her Masters in Art Therapy. Its heartbreaking. I shouldve stayed home with her.

Husband and I both worked full-time. One child has a Masters in marketing and got hired straight out of school, the other is a med student who spent the summer doing humanitarian work. I'm distraught.

Kudos to you ladies.

I'm sorry your dad didn't love you and haven't spent time with you. I strive ever day to be a much better father than my biological father was.

I think you're projecting. Only love from here though.

What he said is that it's the mother who raises and loves the child while the father works. This not only implies that women aren't supposed to work, but also that fathers aren't supposed to love and take care of their children. I'm not projecting, he is.

Thing about Twitter is, as I've come to realise, few understand nuance. Not everything has to be black or white. Best believe fathers love and care, mothers 'work' including his.
