Who is we?
I had men in my life growing up and my household was NOT headed by my mother
Society and cultural conditioning.
I'm speaking about the decay of traditional gender roles and degradation of the family unit.
Tell me how much of the stuff you were taught as a child about women you still believe?
All the Disney movies with that knight in shining armor vibe, pulling out chairs, opening doors, paying all the bills, dinner dates, etc etc...taught to put women on a pedestal, and treat them a certain kind of way, be a gentlemen, be a "good guy".
Then that first heartbreak hits and you realize women are just people.
Steve Harvey & Derrick Jaxn types got rich selling those fairytales to grown women who were more than eager to pay good money to hear it.
Men getting more feminine and women getting more masculine.
Hear young boys out here calling women "Bro" these days.
There's a reason men are turning away from marriage.
Crazy!
That whole thing about single Mothers telling their daughters "You don't need no man" while spoiling their sons rotten / raising their sons to be "the man of the house cause your Daddy aint ****" at 8 years old definitely has an affect.
