1. It is a scientific fact that for the human animal... the stress that humans experience from loneliness is one of the most unhealthy things we can experience as humans. According to research, loneliness is TWICE AS DEADLY as obesity and has as much detrimental effect on one's health as smoking 20 cigarettes in a day.

Loneliness is known to

• make us age quicker,
• make cancer more likely to kill,
• make Alzheimer's and every kind of cognitive degradation advance faster,
• make the immune system weaker (leaving you open to infectious diseases),
• make someone drastically more likely to experience depression, stress and mental illness,
• make someone less likely to engage in health-seeking behaviours,
• make people commit suicide.
• and much more

There are numerous studies backing this fact up. The above link is a non-exhaustive summary of the interesting health effects loneliness has on us.

2. Loneliness occurs more in men AND affects men more.

>Meta-analyses confirm loneliness raises all-cause mortality risk, with pooled hazard ratios around 1.22–1.26 for the general population, and interestingly a higher hazard ratio for men (1.44) than women (1.26) in at least one large meta-analysis.

3. Now... there's a well-known fact that men live longer and are happier in relationships. Women, and especially modern feminists, notice that and assume it means women are doing more. They say: "see, women are propping men up. Women are doing the invisible labor keeping these men alive." But flip it. A person who falls apart without someone isn't being "propped up" by that person's labor. He's telling you how much that person means to him.

In fact, every statistic about men thriving in relationships and collapsing outside of them is not evidence of what women give. It's evidence of what women mean to men.

Another example: its a fact that married men earn more than every other demographic (to the point that there is zero gender pay gap unless you count married men). Is that because women are "pushing" their husbands to achieve? NO. Its because married men are extremely motivated to provide for their wife and children.

Men get more out of being with women because they love women more. They want her around. They calm down around her. They drink and smoke less. They're more careful. They dress better. They have a reason to stay alive and stay decent. He has a reason to come home at night.

That's not a woman carrying him or providing labour and mothering a man-child as feminists contemptuously insult men to say. He is just more in love. Men love women more than the reverse. He is happier and more affected by her presence than the reverse,
