And it's like well... we'll just learn the skills

2019-10-15 00:04:41 UTC  

You know what has convinced me, more then anything, of the corruptive influence of the single mom push and feminism in general is?

2019-10-15 00:04:49 UTC  

Yeah?

2019-10-15 00:04:58 UTC  

I have my own theory on that btw lol

2019-10-15 00:05:10 UTC  

is there a single mom push?

2019-10-15 00:05:16 UTC  

ye

2019-10-15 00:05:28 UTC  

Going by the "stunning and brave" bullshit you hear about single mothers

2019-10-15 00:05:31 UTC  

Now that we've had a couple decades of observable results how utterly degenerate and unproductive to everyone kids from single homes are on average compared to nuclear families.

2019-10-15 00:05:42 UTC  

like specifically to raise children single or like "it's OK" instead of like "DO IT HOE"

2019-10-15 00:06:17 UTC  

Well I think on average, single parenthood has had statistical observable negative results.

2019-10-15 00:06:30 UTC  

like my existence

Like this maybe be contriversial, but I'd say Black People on average in America have it worse then average.

2019-10-15 00:07:14 UTC  

only on a right leaning server you'd have to use that prefixing lol

In a lot of major cities the single mother rate is near 80-90%, but I'd argue the fundamentals to raise a kid are all provided.

2019-10-15 00:08:16 UTC  

Kids are not starving, unhoused, or without education.

2019-10-15 00:08:24 UTC  

I still want to know whether there are stats re: single fatherhood

2019-10-15 00:08:33 UTC  

Its really rare.

2019-10-15 00:08:43 UTC  

it just sounds like it's so rare it's not even a statistical anomaly

2019-10-15 00:09:06 UTC  

In as city of a million, how many divorced dads who got the kids do you think you could find?

2019-10-15 00:09:07 UTC  

10?

2019-10-15 00:09:17 UTC  

literally 10 people?

2019-10-15 00:09:19 UTC  

personally though I know my spawn is missing out on a lot of stuff by not having a mother figure

2019-10-15 00:09:30 UTC  

yeah not even gonna bet it's that high

2019-10-15 00:09:46 UTC  

I think Dads bring at least structure and order,

2019-10-15 00:10:08 UTC  

As long as the kid doesn't starve or get caught in farm equipment, I'd bet he comes out better able to deal with life.

2019-10-15 00:10:27 UTC  

If he gets through those first 10 years, which I bet 50-100 years ago would have been MUCH lower %

2019-10-15 00:11:04 UTC  

lmao

2019-10-15 00:11:09 UTC  

ye I guess

2019-10-15 00:11:16 UTC  

But to tack onto your point

2019-10-15 00:11:34 UTC  

I know it's anecdotal, but I look at my mother, for one, to see that feminism has just outright lied to these girls

2019-10-15 00:11:47 UTC  

ie girls of our generation (I assume we're around the same age?) and younger

2019-10-15 00:11:58 UTC  

Yeah I'm 35-40

2019-10-15 00:12:00 UTC  

The message is build a career, _then_ a family

2019-10-15 00:12:07 UTC  

Grew up listening to NPR with big happy stars in my eyes.

2019-10-15 00:12:11 UTC  

Ah you're a bit older than I am

2019-10-15 00:12:22 UTC  

but yeah, still applies I think

2019-10-15 00:12:36 UTC  

The thing I've seen working has been build a family, _and then_ a career

2019-10-15 00:12:41 UTC  

Oh its just gotten worse.

2019-10-15 00:12:58 UTC  

Cause I mean... wouldn't it make sense to have the kids grow up _before_ you devote yourself to working?
