Man here, I hate men like this...

not a woman but I want to partake in this event

Actually the reason life is such utter shit and the world is spiraling into chaos is BECAUSE of the patriarchy. There is a vast majority of "normal people" that don't care about much else besides having sex and raising kids. When you've chosen to spend your life supporting a family, you don't have room to give a single flying fuck about the dangers authoritarianism, gay/trans rights, concentration camps and general cruelty governments and corporations are always comitting against the masses. Even pretending to care about this stuff can undermine your ability or freedom to raise a family in some places. This leaves the rest of us on our own to fight the obviously losing battle with all the miserable pieces of human trash that want life to be hard "because fuck you that's why/suffering brings people closer to God".

It really is the worst when shitbags like this take what could be a useful, healthy nugget of advice and paint over it with their antisocial garbage.

For all people, having a "mission" in life, finding a purpose, and having something to look forward to are all generally good things that are good for you.

Your mission that you look forward to does not need to be any specific thing that some scumbag who does not care about you prescribes.

For those of us who want families and have them, and considering that we are a social species, it also turns out that your partner, your kid(s), and your immediate environment that you can control (home) can be a pretty significant and rewarding part of your purpose each day!

It's just a part of how conservatives think that they can claim a monopoly on family values while actively destroying families left and right. Which in turn is part of their warped view of the world where to love X means hating that which is non-X.

I have the most traditional looking family you can imagine. It works great for us, and I say fuck messages like the one in the OP that say our individual paths to fulfillment must look alike.

Many of our paths DO look alike, because there are billions of us living in the same world, and that's why it's worth sharing anecdotes and advice while we shout down the "thou shalt" garbage.

Yea, sounds like a good plan.

Can we men please join in? I feel dysfunctional enough for the purpose as is

The gall of these guys to think women owe them civilization.

"Malfunction" made me feel slightly sick. There's no shortage of misogynist rhetoric that paints women as animals, but this guy takes it a step further into reasoning about them like they're machines.

"Women need the patriarchy because, without the patriarchy, there wouldn't be a patriarchy"

Tautology Club meets in the Tautology Club room

That's such a baller statement though. Guy is basically saying women will rule the world if not for the chains of the patriarchy to restrain them.

Civilisation sounds Hella fragile and weak.

Pretty sure the patriarchy and toxic masculinity is precisely why young men are having a loneliness epidemic and some are even doing mass murders, no thanks, dipshit.

Egalitarianism is the future.

It’s crazy that people like this actually exist. Like don’t you have your own problems to solve? How do you even have time to pedal this sexist garbage.

they malfunction and destroy civilizations

...much like politicians these days!

Being a woman is not a requirement to want to destroy much of current civilization.

Put them back in their place. Young men no longer want to contribute to society because it's all nonsense nowadays and would rather let it burn to the ground.

Segregation of labor really started just recently. Go back 10000 years and you’ll find a more even split of roles. 10000 years is fairly evolutionarily negligible- we’re largely the same, aside from some immunity quirks, homeostasis tweaks, gamete peculiarity, and cultural differences.

Pluck a baby from way back and raise it today and you’ll just be raising a pretty average immunocompromised baby.

All of that to say, “women should be in the kitchen for their own good” is unsupported by an even slightly broadened perspective. I’m pretty sure Vikings aren’t coming to rape and plunder your 200 person town, bud. Hiding your wife away is just abusive.

Why is this man terrified of women? He talks about them like they’re Tasmanian devils

The mental image in my head is asking a lady the time and she turns and looks at you, opens her mouth to speak and black smoke starts billowing out and she starts shooting sparks at you.

It's easy to think that if half your population were eldritch horrors civilization would have a bit of trouble.

Restore the patriarchy?

I wasn't aware we drifted.

This man, and all men (yes, all) who hold this belief are actually weak men who are jealous and threatened by women. They need therapy to address the root cause of their toxic masculinity, not arbitrary power over half the population.

How do you even get such shit in your brain?

And more importantly... I get that younger this shit in your head, but that it actually leaves your mouth... WTF?

This guy should go in a ring with some of the women I know and after a round of ass whooping, I wonder how his opinions would be

This is the guy who knows how to fix your marriage:
