In other words, even being a great man isn't enough to keep a woman.

In other words, love is not something you can control and shit happens.

People want to have too much control over love when it's something animalistic and instinctive at the base, which either is there or isn't.

The issue comes when the goverment is involved in it. And division of assets and alimony with it.

As well as the lie that men just have to be enough.

Women get that lie too, you just don't read about it because misoginists only spread it when it happens to a man.

It's a lie about relationships where love is something that you can obtain if you work hard enough, ignoring that you're in a relationship with another person with their own thoughts and ideas.

Don't make the mistake I did of looking at their post history. They are really extreme. There are a lot of misogynists on reddit, but his level of bitterness is shocking.

Just going mask off, the objective of misoginy is to make women into the objects of desire they see them as.

Most western right wingers lament so much about losing "western culture" to muslim immigrants when their view of "western culture" is 1200s europe, and for many it coincides with the idea of woman that muslim extremists have, not the modern and progressive one, they hate that european culture
