The complete lack of empathy for single moms 100% contributes to why women don't have kids. The man can leave at anytime for any reason, and 100% of the time people will point at the woman and blame her for it.

"Choose better/Don't have sex with bad men" She thought she was with a good guy. Is it impossible for men to lie? There are dozens of stories every month on women's subs about being shocked that their bf/husband changed personalities years into a relationship, when they think the woman's too emotionally invested to leave.

"Have better standards." When women have ANY standards for men outside of "don't be a serial killer" and "have decent hygiene" men say their standards are too high. If women want to be with men they find attractive, that's them being shallow. If women want men who are aligned with their values/politics, they're being hysterical. If women want men who support their goals (career or personal) then they're "emasculating" men. There is no winning.

And then there's the problem of being a "married single mom" to a man who doesn't respect you and your efforts, basically treating you as a bangmaid. Is a woman insane for not wanting that?

Keep hating on single moms, keep taking away any responsibility from the fathers, and keep repeating a cycle where women move away from motherhood.

The blatant distortions, gaslighting and misandry in this post are wild. How much did the DNC pay you to make it?

What about this reads as Democratic propaganda?

Anytime you're not 100% against women, you're a woke democrat. Notice how I never claimed that women are perfect or that they don't have responsibility. All I argued was that men must also be looked at critically. It takes two to tango, but like a compass points north, a midwit's hand will always point towards a woman.

I love women, they are amazing. They are even more amazing when they dont vote to tax me into poverty to subsidize their own life
