I think that the "SOME" percentage is a lot higher than you think. I'm not woman bashing, I happen to like women, just research.

Women are told that they are better than men, "good girls", from an early age. That is reinforced by congressional elevation of women's rights above an equilibrium point of men's "rights", mostly in an effort to gain women's votes. Women are then constantly pandered to in order to maintain that disequilibrium.

The media plays heavily against men simply because females are the largest market share for most products.

Two major issues arise from this.

1 Women have a sense of entitlement that is not reality based.
2 Men who marry are likely to lose far more than half of their assets in a divorce, and have to continue to pay for many years. "No fault" divorce is stacked very heavily in favor of the woman. She can cheat, spend all of their assets, have kids, etc, and he will end up paying for a house that he doesn't occupy. An other man will be playing "dad" to his kids that he will only get to see on weekends.

Paternal fraud is a very real issue and is estimated by some studies to have an occurrence rate exceeding 28%.

Lastly, men simply don't understand the REAL nature of a woman, especially her sexual side. I grew up with an immensely entitled princess. I got to see how well that worked from a young age.

Men do, of course have their issues, and everyone thinks that they know what they are, after all, we have commercials telling us on a daily basis what losers and dumb asses men are....

No offense, GEL, just a sticky point for me.

I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.

-An affair is the embodiment of entitlement, fueled by resentment and lack of respect.
-An infidel will remain unreachable so long as their sense of entitlement exceeds their ability to reason.
