No, this isn’t The Onion, or satire.

I notice that a lot of people are becoming more aware of why they shouldn't use the term "females" to describe women and girls. However, I often see these same people casually referring to women as girls, even other women. It seems far more normalized (compared to "females") due to gender norms where femininity and beauty are often associated with youth and women are often infantilized due to sexism. But it seems like many women find it flattering or normal? What are your thoughts?

Here in America it is ever apparent that marriage for a man who has goals and ambitions, is a huge L. When you actually look at what marriage is and brings to the table in a relationship, there is literally zero perks for a man who has a good career and some assets in life. (Or at a minimum has a work ethic and self discipline to achieve his goals)

That said man can achieve everything he wants in life without being legally bound to a female and more importantly the State.

I think it’s a status symbol more than anything. If a guy would do a bit of homework on “alimony “ and automatic child support if/when the marriage failed in his state, I bet at least a few guys would definitely have second thoughts about signing a legal document to in which the other party is incentivized to break said contract.

Now the same can be said for a female who has a bum of a boyfriend. Would not recommend marrying a bum of a guy if you have a career and assets.
