I'm not laughing at the 'plight of men', I'm laughing at your belief about the so-called plight of men, while ignoring the plight of women.

What happened when the adulterous woman was brought to Jesus' attention? And the men said, "This woman was caught in the very act of adultery." What did Jesus do? Did he condemn her for being 'promiscuous'?

Seriously Wrangler, get a grip...
The Jews should have brought the woman and the man but being hypocrites they only brought the woman.
Jesus didn't say it but let them think it through until their own minds convicted them of sin.

A 'seismic shift' in the dating scene? Yeah. LOTS of women are dropping out of dating. Lots of men are too, but not for the same reasons.
Maybe the seismic shift is due to all the garbage dating programs on tv???????????

Oh, what post did you express sympathy for the plight of men?

And again with the quotes!
Quote:
Inverted commas can be used to indicate irony, inaccuracy, or skepticism. For example, "I met a teacher, a journalist, and an 'artist'". In this example, the inverted commas around "artist" are used as a distancing device, possibly to indicate doubt about the person's credentials.'
Inverted commas, aka quotes, are useful literary devices to facilitate understanding.

Solipsism (unable to de-personalize objective facts) and Self-Enhancement Theory explained through feminists abusing POV meme's in a longer vid than normal that shows inequality, debunking feminist ideology. Explains why Lesbian relationships have the highest break up rates and gay men have the lowest break up rates. Also, social media exacerbates this dynamic.

True but irrelevant. Ephesians 5 has different expectations for men and women. I believe we are commanded to do what is harder for each sex to do, men to love and women to respect.

I explained to @Mink57 that God is a God of order and he ordained that husbands have authority over their wives. Ge 3:16.
Genesis 3:16 does NOT command husbands to have authority over their wives. It was a prediction to Eve about Adam. God wasn't even TALKING to Adam. He was talking to Eve. He did not tell Eve that she must obey Adam.

Obviously Adam and Eve lived a different life before the Fall. Adam didn't rule over Eve until AFTER the fall, which meant that there was none of Adam's 'authority' before the Fall.
This hierarchy prevents chaos in the case of disagreement.
And what was the hierarchy BEFORE Patriarchy?
So, I asked @Mink57 who makes the decision in the case of disagreement under feminism. She has repeatedly refused to answer the question.
And I have told you several times that it depends on what the disagreement is about. You can't lump ALL disagreements under ONE umbrella. If it's a disagreement about where to go out to eat tonight, ideally the couple would compromise. Hence, there is no chaos...
...unless one wants to rule over someone who doesn't want to be ruled over, OR, both people WANT to 'rule' over the other! Then, there would be chaos!
This reveals feminist ideology is anti-Christ, originates with the god of chaos of this world.
Uh huh....*eyeroll*

No. It states they WILL rule over them despite the woman's desire to control him.
No. It states that HE will rule over "YOU"; not "they" will rule over "them." God was talking to Eve. No other woman was even around then.
Also, nothing about the woman's desire to "control" her husband.

Try reading the passage in the original language.

You’re in denial. The curse of Original Sin was being spelled out and this curse applies to all their descendants.

People acknowledge the labor curse but often over look this curse of the woman having a desire to control the man.

Feminism paints traditional marriage roles as oppressive and unfulfilling for women. This was the main point of The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan. She called the unfulfillment "the unnamed problem".

I have found that, if anything, the amount of freedom I have is challenging at times. How do I prioritize the right things in a day to keep things running smoothly and make life better for us?

When we had to make an emergency relocation, my husband simply let me pick our new place, sight unseen. As long as there's food, it feels like there are endless options and priorities that are solely up to me---these tend to be the ones I actually care about.

I care about where we live. My husband could live in a rotting shack as long as it had electricity and internet access.

I used to work and have a degree I don't use. The thing about work is that you are replaceable there. I felt it. One time, I had a desk. My coworker put plants and photos on hers. I never did. I never felt compelled to personalize it.

However, one thing I absolutely hate is that some women choose homemaking because they cannot function in society otherwise and refuse to be reliable in any way. I'm talking about women who stay at home because they can be lazy and get away with it. Their lives and homes are chaos and the theme is that they simply can't get it together.

I try to avoid hot mess Mom culture. I don't believe in perfectionism but homemaking is not meant to justify chaos or laziness. This is a fixable problem. Need better results? Associate with and learn from those better than you just like you would with any other profession.

.
Gen 3:16c . .Your desire shall be for your husband,

The Hebrew of that passage is apparently somewhat difficult as even the
great rabbi scholars Rashi and Ramban were in disagreement how best to
interpret it.

The Hebrew word translated "desire" shows up so infrequently in the Bible
that it's difficult to get a good feel for it. In point of fact, other than here in
Genesis, the only other places it's used is Gen 4:7 and Song 7:10.

I'm thinking the Hebrew word implies allure. In other words; Eve could be
just as immodest, just as daring, and just as provocative in private with her
husband all she wanted; but not in public for the eyes of other men.

That rule can be a bit frustrating for beautiful women filled out in all the
right places because they typically yearn for their goods to be admired
everywhere by everybody; and the more revealing, and the more public, the
better.

Well; I recommend that they satisfy that yearning while still young and
uncommitted because marriage is a possessive kind of relationship wherein
the partners' physical charms should be considered off the shelf rather than
remaining on display for others to window shop.


NOTE: God improved upon Eve's fig leaves by making her some clothing
translated from a Hebrew word pertaining to garments hanging from the
shoulders. Thus our ancient grandma's topless days came to an end.
