Women are now more likely than ever to choose to have a child and start a family without a husband.


Married women are now more likely than ever to be the ones having the affair. A phenomena documented by social scientists over the past couple of decades.

While the “polls’ conducted by such venerable institutions as Redbook, and Cosmo would the public believe that half of all Americans are swingers, the less than titillating truth is the majority of men (and women) don’t cheat on their spouses.

Accurate numbers are difficult for many reasons, even things like a male’s tendency to exaggerate their "exploits" and a female’s to minimize theirs.

Nonetheless a trend is a trend. And women in our society are picking up more “male” traits for example:

Violent and sexual behavior among our preteen and teen boys have stabilized but those behaviors among our preteen and teen girls (while still much less than boys) have increased 200-300% over the past decade.

What else can be expected in a society that systematically emasculates the males?

One of the traits of a true man was to protect the virtue of a woman. By trying to curb what the feminists call the male aggression factor they are also suppressing a few of the things that make REAL men worth having around. Like Nobility and Chivalry.

But even on this forum at times there are shades of who needs a man.

I think Media has a lot to do with this. Our permissiveness also has a lot. Women's lib was one thing....women's lib ran by a bunch of men hating butches was another
