This is still the best one:

>It began as a joke. I resented my husband’s book club and its ability to work through doorstoppers like Matterhorn (597 pages) with surprising alacrity, parsing narrative threads while making wild-game chili. Attempting to fashion a rival club, I found my girlfriends fell into two camps: the book-club-fatigued and the time-crunched. Whereas my mom can juggle two book clubs and seven novels on her Kindle, I can barely get through the ingredients list on my jar of peanut butter, with work, a baby and a Twitter feed all clamouring for my attention. And so I convened the Ladies Short-Form Media Auxiliary. We would drink buttery whites, eat cake and discuss magazine articles, YouTube clips and clever tweets. We’d all be on the same page, but that page wouldn’t be in a book.

if you read at the average pace of one page every two minutes, that's thirty pages per hour or 150 pages per working week, 600 pages per working month. if your group meets weekly you could discuss your progress, thoughts on future developments, characters, intrigue, themea, how those might be explored further, and so on. one book a month for a book-of-the-month club seems exactly within reach.

It's not objective of course, but saying that women are not very good at reasoning without emotion(or more accurately reasoning against their emotions) translates for most people to inferiority. They're also less smart on average, have way fewer geniuses etc.

You don't really need to listen to me, just go read what Aristotle or whoever said about them, the general picture has not changed for thousands of years, even though we are now living in an amusing anomaly where people pretend otherwise.

I understand what you're saying, it makes more sense now. However, I still can't appeal to your initial statement because not all women will do that. Just because they can, doesn't mean they will. There's a lot of gambles to relationships but if you ever think your wife is capable of such things, then maybe you should contemplate your choice of women

Humans are flawed, and women are told that that course of action is not only ok, but justified in some ways. Are you so perfect that you will never give her a reason to be angry, to consider doing it? I doubt it. And consideration is enough, the mere awareness of the power existing changes things, creates an imbalance between you in her favour.

Of course if you're both good people, then chances are you will be fine, I'm sure. Many people still have happy marriages. But there are no patriarchs in the west was my point.

Have you ever been in a relationship? I've never had the cops called on me or something involving the law. These girls that do that are in my opinion crazy. 98% of my friends haven't had that happen either besides my roommate who's ex is in fact psycho and claimed he hit her when he never did. These few anecdotes, though I do not want to lessen their gravity nor their commonplace occurrence in real life,is not enough for me to say that women are inferior.

>But there are no patriarchs in the west was my point.
I have no comment on this. I don't know enough about the science of relationships to say anything. I will say that I think relationships work best with certain roles and the carrying out of such roles.

I've been in a handful of 'serious' relationships(Im still young so they were serious as in we lived together but nothing beyond that), and the girls I was with were all on the whole very fair to me.

But that doesn't mean much, that doesn't translate to married life with kids, or to the majority of relationships I would say. Idk how else to put it but I felt like I was sort of 'in control' of those relationships in a way that your average married man just is not at all. Maybe the average woman wouldn't pull psycho shit like that but the thing is she can, and she knows that

schoolgirls in pantyhose
sitting on bus stop benches
looking tired at 13
with their raspberry lipstick.
it’s hot in the sun
and the day at school has been
dull, and going home is
dull, and
I drive by in my car
peering at their warm legs.
their eyes look
away—
they’ve been warned
about ruthless and horny old
studs; they’re just not going
to give it away like that.
and yet it’s dull
waiting out the minutes on
the bench and the years at
home, and the books they
carry are dull and the food
they eat is dull, and even
the ruthless, horny old studs
are dull.

the girls in pantyhose wait,
they await the proper time and
moment, and then they will move
and then they will conquer.

I drive around in my car
peeking up their legs
pleased that I will never be
part of their heaven and
their hell. but that scarlet
lipstick on those sad waiting
mouths! it would be nice to
kiss each of them once, fully,
then give them back.
but the bus will
get them first.

This has probably been posted a million times in this thread already, but I'm going to post it anyways because whatever. Western culture in general has a nasty problem with glorifying vice these days. You see it all over, and it transcends race, class, gender, and all the other stupid little things people like this woman obsess over. If it's not Hemingway or Hunter S. Thompson, then it's Harvey Levin or Nicki Minaj. If it's not smug college boys who think they're super deep because they read "The Stranger" and smoke American Spirits, then it's some smug college girls who write blog posts about how empowered their BDSM camwhore blogs make them feel.

Vice is healthy if you can control it, anon. Even The Bible says as much.

This idea that suppression of vice leads to a better society needs to die. What needs to happen instead is for people to find healthy environments in which to indulge those vices without harming themselves or others. Reading decadent literature and camwhoring are among these avenues.

“With a heroine as sweet and naive as Constance...(Ceri Radford's shallow stand-in protagonist)”
—Elizabeth Buchan, author of Revenge of the Middle-Aged Woman

There are thousands and thousands of women who write these books over and over again, stories about women who ditch their husbands and go "find themselves" forever with little to no trouble (and very pathetically expect attractive men to desire these mid-30s broken-in housewives over early 20s students.)
I'm not happy about women blatantly exploiting marriage in the present day, but what I am happy with is some of these women genuinely get what they deserve and turn as fucking ugly as their souls.
