A Man Is Guilty Even When Proven Innocent. A Woman Is Innocent Even When Proven Guilty. Welcome to the double standard nobody wants to talk about. We live in a world where a mere accusation can destroy a man’s reputation, career, and future—even if he’s later proven innocent. Meanwhile, a woman can be caught red-handed, and society will still find a way to justify her actions. Why? Because narratives matter more than facts. 1. The Court of Public Opinion Is Rigged Against Men Let’s be real—once a man is accused of anything remotely scandalous, his life is over before he even gets a chance to defend himself. ✔️ A woman makes an allegation? "Believe all women!" ✔️ Evidence shows the man is innocent? "There’s no smoke without fire." ✔️ The woman later admits she lied? "She must have had her reasons." Meanwhile, a woman caught in the act will have an entire PR campaign launched on her behalf: ✔️ "She was manipulated!" ✔️ "She’s just a victim of society’s pressures!" ✔️ "What about the man? He must have done something to push her to this!" 2. The Law Is Not Blind—It’s Selectively Blind Men and women do not face equal judgment in the legal system. 🔹 False accusations ruin lives, but there’s rarely punishment for false accusers. 🔹 Divorce courts strip men of assets, children, and dignity—while rewarding women, even if they were at fault. 🔹 Men accused of domestic violence are immediately arrested. A woman who abuses a man? People laugh and call him weak. 3. Society’s Sympathy Is Gender-Based A man struggling in life? Nobody cares. A woman struggling in life? Everyone rushes to help. A man crying about unfair treatment? "Man up and stop whining!" A woman crying about unfair treatment? "Let’s change the system to accommodate her feelings!" 4. The Brutal Reality: "It Is What It Is" At this point, men have two choices: 1️⃣ Wake up, accept reality, and play the game strategically. 2️⃣ Stay blind, get chewed up by the system, and wonder why nobody came to save them. The world isn’t fair. It never was. But once you understand the rules of the game, you stop expecting justice and start navigating reality like a king. |
As simple as that, laced with facts.

placeofallure:You tried. Relationship is a two way thing. |
Reverseng:I don't not agree with you that mortal relationships are speck to life—rather they are very significant. For example, choosing the wrong partner affects: 📌Finances (child support, alimony, step-parenting costs) 📌Emotional well-being (drama, baggage, baby daddy issues) 📌Freedom (legal obligations, time commitments) Dismissing relationships as insignificant is surprising , especially when discussing long-term consequences like single motherhood. At the end... You actually did well that most in your comment , but a majority of your argument is a rollercoaster of emotional appeals, strawman fallacy, and sloppy logic. You’ve generalized my stance into “hate,” assumed my motives (bitterness, purity obsession), and equated wildly different scenarios to avoid the core issue: single mothers often seek men to offset the consequences of their past, which isn’t a dynamic most other “mistakes” create. Your not just justifying single moms predicaments—you’re deflecting accountability onto everyone else (men, society, me) except them . My take isn’t about denying redemption or humanity—it was about recognizing patterns and questioning expectations. You’ve missed that by a mile, and your sanctimonious tone doesn’t make it any truer. The Red Pill does not say single mothers are evil—it says they have lower dating market value due to real-world consequences of their past decisions. Men have the right to choose, just as women do. A woman who becomes a single mother made a choice, and men are not obligated to fix or compensate for that choice. No hate. No bitterness. Just reality. |
Reverseng:What the f**k did I just read. This hypothetical is a mess. First, it’s a massive generalization—most men wouldn’t be single mothers because not all men are reckless, just like not all women are. This argument is built on a weak hypothetical scenario that ignores fundamental biological, social, and psychological differences between men and women. Let’s break it down logically: 1. Men and Women Are Not the Same Men and women are biologically different, and their reproductive strategies have evolved differently. Men can walk away from pregnancy; women cannot. This is why society has always expected women to be more selective in choosing their partners. 2. Accountability for Actions The argument assumes that if men could get pregnant, they would be reckless too. Maybe some would—but that’s irrelevant because men don’t get pregnant. A woman who fails to take responsibility for her fertility (through contraception, partner selection, or long-term planning) cannot blame men for her choices. If a woman chooses to risk pregnancy with a reckless man, that is her failure in judgment, not just his irresponsibility. 3. The “Men Love Sex Without Protection” Argument Yes, many men prefer unprotected sex. But women are the gatekeepers of sex—they hold the power to say no, demand protection, or use birth control. Blaming men for this is like blaming a thief for stealing while leaving your door wide open—yes, the thief is wrong, but you failed to protect yourself. 4. The Safe & Unsafe Period Fallacy Many women rely on natural cycle tracking, but this method is not foolproof—especially for women with irregular cycles. Birth control, condoms, or abstinence are far more effective, and women who get pregnant repeatedly "by accident" are either irresponsible or lying. Do you know that there are single moms who have 3 children for 3 different fathers? I noticed to keep making women look like they arr not adults who are suppose to be mature. Blaming men’s “callousness” for women’s choices dodges agency—women can say no, use protection, or track cycles (which, yes, can work if done right). Using the word "Callouseness" And “daft” when using men as a case study to compare it with single moms is condescending to single mothers, implying they’re just clueless victims, not decision-makers. This gender-swap fantasy just muddies the waters with what-ifs instead of addressing what is. Final Verdict This argument tries to shift blame away from women’s choices and pretend that men would be “just as bad” if they could get pregnant. But reality is simple: Women control access to sex → They decide who they sleep with. Women control pregnancy outcomes → They can use birth control or choose not to. Men don’t get to “accidentally” become single fathers → Women choose whether to keep a child. A woman who chooses irresponsibly should accept the consequences instead of making hypothetical excuses. |
Reverseng:Redemption’s great—nobody’s arguing she should be exiled. But “a chance in society” doesn’t mean men have to sign up to raise her kid. That’s the disconnect—her redemption doesn’t obligate anyone else to play savior. And this “bitter men” angle? Is pure projection. You’re assuming any one criticizing single moms stems from personal rejection, not logic—ad hominem at its finest. Very crude generalization indeed. Maybe you have met some men who were bitter, but that’s irrelevant to your point: single mothers often seek partners to stabilize their situation, which shifts the dating dynamic. This implies that women can reject men freely, but men aren’t allowed to reject them later when their value has changed. That’s pure entitlement. If the child’s father is dead, that’s unfortunate and this is not her fault and though some men might consider a woman who actually lost her husband —but it doesn’t remove the added responsibility that come with dating a single mother. A single mother’s status is about the child, not just the father. Whether the father is absent by choice or by tragedy, the fact remains: the child is still there, needing time, resources, and attention. The “cute baby for someone else” bit is just sentimental bait—doesn’t change the fact that the “someone else” isn’t around, and now she’s auditioning replacements. Her regret doesn’t erase the reality others face when they enter the picture. Sure, it’s a mistake—not denying that. But “alive to correct it” doesn’t mean the correction involves a man stepping in as provider-by-default. And youe whole argument: the “correction” often looks like outsourcing responsibility from another man. And yeah, everyone’s made mistakes—but if I crash my car drunk, I don’t expect you to buy me a new one. Consequences stick, and single motherhood’s consequence is a kid, not just a “whoops” moment. You're leaning on universal fallibility of himans to excuse specifics, but that’s a cop-out. Not all mistakes demand the same fix, and not all fixes involve someone else’s sacrifice. The Scale of Consequences Matters For example: If someone spends all their money gambling and goes broke, they don’t get to demand financial help and say, “Well, haven’t you ever made a mistake?” Likewise, a single mother cannot expect a man to inherit the consequences of her choices and then guilt-trip him for questioning it. Your Argument Does Not Remove Accountability If mistakes alone justified everything, then we could excuse criminals, cheaters, and liars under the same logic—because "everyone makes mistakes." Accountability means owning your mistakes and accepting the consequences—not demanding others bear them for you. |
Reverseng:Oh, the classic “cast the first stone” line—straight out of the emotional blackmail playbook. That’s just sanctimonious fluff—if anything, a knee-jerk defense that poisons honest discussion. Its just another emotional appeal disguised as logic. I’m not stoning anyone—I’m calling it like I see it. Single moms expecting a bailout isn’t “poisoning peoples mind”; it’s reality. I’ve made mistakes too, but I don’t expect you to raise my kid over it. Here’s the flaw in your argument : pointing out patterns or consequences isn’t “casting stones”—it’s observation, not judgment. I am not saying single mothers are irredeemable; I am saying their choices have ripple effects they shouldn’t expect others to fix. Everyone makes mistakes—sure—but not all mistakes are equal. ✔ If someone drives drunk and gets into an accident, should we just say, “Who hasn’t made a mistake?” ✔ If someone gambles away their savings, should we just say, “Who hasn’t made a mistake?” ✔ If someone chooses to have a child irresponsibly, should we just say, “Who hasn’t made a mistake?” No. Because not all mistakes have the same consequences. ⛔A mistake is forgetting your keys. ⛔A life-altering decision is having a child you can’t properly provide for. There is no undo button for single motherhood. That’s why men have the right to be cautious about getting involved. |
Reverseng:Now I am starting to get tired of you derailing the thread discussion with your incessant comparison of single moms with the worst you h can think of. It's either you are comparing them with those who have aborted or with women who use "so called" vagina tightening cream or have done every moral depravity. Trying to make it look like those single moms are saints, as if some of them were not guilty of abortions or other vices. There is a single mom I know from a friend who lived a reckless life and have done countless abortion,took drugs, smokes and drinks. Eventually the reason she became a single mom was because her doctor warned her that if she aborted again, she will never be able to bear a child again. Something is off about you.. I noticed you have been twisting my words into something i never said. I never “praise” non-virgins—I only criticized single mothers for expecting men to step into a ready-made family after their choices. Infact I don't recall any of my thread talking about non virgins. Since you've brought them into the topic, a non-virgin without kids doesn’t bring that baggage; their past doesn’t inherently demand someone else pick up the tab. Condoms or withdrawal aren’t the point—the point is outcome. A single mother’s situation isn’t just about “sperm” (crude oversimplification); it’s about the kid that resulted and the shift in relationship dynamics that follows. You keeping ranking women on a purity scale when we are actually analyzing practical consequences. This is deliberate misdirection—And I won't fall for it. |
Reverseng:You’re making a whataboutism argument—instead of addressing the reality of single motherhood, you try to shift the focus to women who have had abortions. This argument is an emotional distraction that fails to address the core issue. It attempts to shift the focus away from single mothers by comparing them to women you think are the worst of the worst such as those who have had multiple abortions, but this comparison is both irrelevant and misleading. This is absurdly hyperbolic and reeks of bad faith. First, “countless abortions” and “vagina tightening cream”? Painting a cartoonish villain to dodge the real discussion. The difference is stark: a single mother has a child—a permanent, living consequence that alters her life and potentially others’. And “reverse the carnage”? That’s just inflammatory nonsense— safe abortions don’t really “loosen” or destroy anything medically if done right , and tightening creams are irrelevant to either scenario. Dating a single mother means financial responsibility, co-parenting conflicts, and emotional entanglements with the child’s father. The Core Issue: This argument is a deliberate deflection that ignores why men avoid single mothers. It is not about “purity” or morality—it is about responsibility, consequences, and long-term impact. The fundamental difference is this: a single mother’s past continues to exist in the form of a child who requires lifelong care. Comparing that to someone who had an abortion is just an attempt to guilt-trip men into accepting responsibilities that are not theirs. |
Reverseng:Let's be honest with ourselves... Labeling any criticism of single motherhood as "hate" is a lazy and manipulative way to shut down logical discussion. This is a classic emotional appeal designed to make people feel guilty for pointing out inconvenient truths. Key points: 1. Mistakes Have Consequences – Accountability Matters Calling single motherhood a "mistake" oversimplifies the reality. A mistake is something unintentional—dropping a phone, forgetting an appointment, or making a typo. Becoming a single mother is not an accident—it is almost always the result of a series of poor choices. 📌Choosing to sleep with an unreliable man. 📌Ignoring red flags. 📌Engaging in unprotected sex. 📌Keeping a pregnancy without ensuring the father is committed. 2. If It’s Just a Mistake, Why Should Men Be Responsible for It? Mistakes have consequences, and the consequences of single motherhood should not fall on another man. If someone crashes their car because they were texting and driving, should another person be forced to buy them a new car just because "everyone makes mistakes"? 3. Accountability vs. Playing the Victim The real issue is lack of accountability. Instead of admitting that bad decisions led to their situation, many single mothers (and their defenders) try to shift blame onto men for not wanting to take on the responsibility. If single mothers truly believed it was "just a mistake," they would accept the consequences and work on improving their situation without demanding a bailout from another man. Final Thought: Criticism is not hatred. It’s reality. Actions have consequences, and people have the right to set their own standards in dating. No one is obligated to "fix" someone else’s mistake, especially when that mistake involves lifelong responsibility. |
Reverseng:Hate? Where? I said they need help, not love—practical support, not a savior. You’re twisting my words into some venomous rant. I’m not mad they didn’t abort—I’m mad they’re hunting for a guy to fix their life. Call it a mistake, fine, but don’t cry “hate” when I point it out. Breaking Down your Flawed Logic: 1. False Equivalence Between Abortion and Single Motherhood Abortion and single motherhood are two separate issues. One results in no child being born, while the other results in a child growing up in a broken family structure. The discussion is about the consequences of single motherhood, not about abortion. Bringing abortion into the debate is a diversionary tactic to avoid addressing the real concerns men have about dating single mothers. 2. Strawman Argument – Claiming "Hate" Instead of Addressing the Issue Criticizing single motherhood as a bad decision with long-term consequences is not "hate." It is an acknowledgment of reality. If calling out the disadvantages of single motherhood means someone "hates" single moms, then should we also say that financial advisors "hate" people in debt just because they warn about poor financial choices? 3. Ignoring the Responsibility Factor A woman who gets an abortion may be making a difficult, controversial choice, but she is not asking another man to take financial or emotional responsibility for a child that isn't his. A single mother, on the other hand, is often looking for a man to step in and provide stability, resources, and time for a child that he did not create. That is a much bigger ask, which is why men are rightfully cautious. The Real Issue: The reason many men avoid dating single mothers is not because they "hate" them, but because: ➡️They don’t want to take on a responsibility that isn’t theirs. ➡️They don’t want to deal with potential drama from the biological father. ➡️They don’t want to come second to a child in the relationship dynamic. This isn’t about morality, abortion, or hate—it’s about logical self-preservation. No one is obligated to take on someone else’s burden out of guilt. A single mother is not really "better" than someone who had an abortion simply because she kept the child. The core issue is why she got pregnant in the first place and whether she is now looking for a man to take responsibility for that choice. |
Reverseng:While I appreciate you for taking time to give your view but I must say that the above is one of the worst generalizations I’ve ever read. Let’s apply basic reasoning: A single mother is a woman who gave birth to a child and is now raising it alone, typically because the father is absent, irresponsible, or not willing to commit. A non-virgin simply means a woman who has had sex. A virgin who engaged in other sexual acts is still biologically different from someone who carried a pregnancy to term. A woman who had an abortion made the decision to terminate a pregnancy, which means she chose to avoid single motherhood, whether morally right or wrong. You claim they are all in the same category because they are “sexually impure.” But is society condemning single mothers because they are “sexually impure”? No. So now you see that this is you trying to change the topic of discussion, that’s a strawman argument. The real issue is accountability and responsibility. A woman who has casual sex and avoids pregnancy is not the same as a woman who gets pregnant and expects another man to fix her mistake. A woman who has an abortion(issue of ethics and morality is talk for another day) is not the same as a woman who chooses to keep the baby but then expects another man to cater to her struggles. I also want to enlighten people on this false saint narrative people always ascribe to single moms. The False "Saint" Narrative People always make it seem like single moms are just helpless victims of fate. Refusing to acknowledge that a large percentage of single mothers are in that situation because of their own poor life choices. 📌If they had better judgment, discipline, and standards, they wouldn’t have ended up raising a child alone. 📌If they had valued family structure, they wouldn’t have risked pregnancy without a stable, committed partner. 📌If they had self-awareness and accountability, they would admit their role in their situation instead of playing the victim. The Key Point I am making here is that : Not all single mothers are innocent victims, and many were reckless, selfish, or outright manipulative in how they ended up in their situation. Do you know that some actually drive away good men with their bad character, hence the reason why the baby daddy left. Any man considering dating one must evaluate her choices, her mindset, and whether she has truly changed—because most do not. |
Jerkbaba:All resorting to emotional replies. You read my threads and couldn’t counter any points the only thing you can come up with is that j am obsessed with women ![]() |
Reverseng:You wrote well and I like it that you brought out some points to be addressed. When I have settled I will give a response to all the points you have raised. Updated : I have read it deeply and I have noticed alot of loopholes to your arguments which I replied in details in my next post. @bolded text "Do what thou will shall be the whole of the law. Love is the law. Love under will." This statement is borrowed from Aleister Crowley, a known occultist. Let me just take it as just a quote. P. S First I want to clarify a lot of things : A man refusing to date a single mother isn’t about bitterness; it’s about risk and investment. A child is a financial and emotional obligation. If the father left, it raises questions about the woman's decision-making. A child from another man means the new man always comes second in her priorities. A single mother can work, provide for her child, and find a man willing to accept her. But men have the right to reject situations that don’t serve them. If he is a single dad, then the equation is balanced. I have seen such situations. |
Fiscus105:Says someone that also writes about women in his previous posts. People will just come about be forming macho on people's thread. This series of thread is to enlighten men on the ways of women. If you don't like it you one forced you to read them. |
dollypi:Well done Understanding man. |
Keepamsafe:Ah tell you oo. They keep ranting about house chores. As if it's one kind difficult work. Women want to make us feel as if their responsibility is something we should go on our knees and be thanking them for. |
HawkTuahGirl:Atleast in your wife case you know it's your offspring. |
1Sharon:You have followed me to this thread again with your emotional responses. So a woman who works and contributes to her family as she should do, now means a man is relying on her salary ![]() Please of you don't want to be contributing to the family due to the way the world have changed, you can just be a stay at home mom, doing all the house chores. Cos I don't see why you will b working and earning and not what to atleast contribute to the running of the family. Simple things an adult should do is what women are seeing as if they are doing a favor. This starts right from relationship. You claim you are in love with a man, he spends on you but if though you are working, you keep all the money to yourself saying it's the man's duty to provide, is that not unfair or petty. We have uncovered case where a married woman was sick and instead of her to spend her own money to treat her self she refused. Allowing the husband to run helter skelter trying to borrow loan to fix her health. This woman end up dying unfortunately. The husband gets to find out she has 1.5million naira hidden. What kind of stinginess is that, even her own life she prefer to hide her money so that the husband will keep spending his money than to spend hers. As for the aspect of house chores. You are making it look like some impossible work to do. |
Wetin concern her ![]() |
Fiscus105:What is this one saying... ![]() |
To add to the above, some see it that they are done having kids and don't want to make such mistakes again (either secretly within their mind or tell you openly) . I have interacted with single moms and have known men who were unfortunate to get tangled with them, it wasn't easy. Last year, a single mom was telling a guy she doesn't want kids anymore that she can't go through the pain she went through again raising a kid. This means she expects him to step up and take the role of the step dad and still yet she doesn't want to bear children for him. This means he won't have any true offsprings of him own, this is cockholdery. Damn! |
Conclusion: Men, Protect Yourselves Here’s the truth: 📌 Single mothers don’t need a boyfriend. They need a bailout. 📌 They are looking for a responsible man to fix the consequences of their own irresponsibility. 📌 If she wasn’t serious about commitment before, why should you be the one to "save" her now? Men, choose wisely. 🚨 Don’t date single mothers. Don’t be a stepdad. Build your own legacy. 🚨 💬 What do you think? Have you ever dated a single mother? Share your experience below! |
5. The Cold Reality: It’s a Losing Game Let’s summarize what you get as a man when you date a single mother: ❌ A child that isn’t yours. ❌ Emotional baggage from a past relationship. ❌ Financial responsibilities you didn’t sign up for. ❌ A woman who settled for you only because she ran out of options. And what do you lose? ⚠️ The chance to build your own family from scratch. ⚠️ Your resources going towards someone else’s child. ⚠️ Your peace of mind, as you will always be second priority. It’s a bad deal no matter how you look at it. |
4. The Disrespect You Will Face Even if you accept the role of stepfather, understand this: 🚩 You will NEVER be fully respected. 🚩 Her child will NEVER see you as their real father. 🚩 Her ex (baby daddy) will ALWAYS be in the picture. Ask yourself: Do you want to be in a situation where another man’s child disrespects you while you provide for them? Do you want to deal with the drama of a baby daddy showing up whenever he pleases? Do you want to be in a relationship where you are always second place—because the child will always come first? Single mothers will tell you they can separate love for their child and love for a man. But in reality? You are an accessory to her survival. She doesn’t love you. She loves what you can provide. |
3. "Where Was This Energy Before?" The biggest irony? Many single mothers were the same women who: ❌ Mocked traditional men. ❌ Laughed at marriage-minded men in their youth. ❌ Said, "I don’t need a man!" Now, after bad decisions and a child to raise, suddenly they believe in marriage? Suddenly, they need a responsible man? Where was this energy before? Where was the "God-fearing" talk when they were getting pregnant by a man who had no future plans with them? It’s funny how "no sex before marriage" only becomes important after they’ve already had a child. And yet, society pressures good men to accept these women as if their past choices don’t matter. If a man makes bad financial decisions, he is held accountable. If a woman makes bad life choices, society expects men to fix it. See the double standard? |
2. You Are the Financial Plan Many men fail to see the trap. A single mother may not directly ask for money, but over time, you will notice: ✔️ She talks about how "tough" things have been. ✔️ She casually mentions her child’s school fees. ✔️ She always seems to have an emergency that requires help. This is not an accident. Men, listen carefully: 🚩 The child will ALWAYS come first. 🚩 You will NEVER be the top priority. 🚩 You are expected to step up for a situation you didn’t create. Let’s put this into perspective: Imagine applying for a job where you’re expected to take full responsibility for another person’s mistakes while receiving zero authority. Imagine walking into a relationship where a child who is not yours will always be a bigger priority than you. Imagine having to invest in someone else’s legacy while receiving none of the rewards. This is what dating a single mother means. You are not building your own family. You are maintaining someone else’s. |
