About the Jewish stuff, see below and be shocked.

My starting point? A man has to go out and hunt and gather and fight and DIE. He doesn't know which of his children are truly his and doesn’t rally have that deep a bond with them and he's often away from home and likely soon die from one thing or another. Nature forces the woman to stay home and tend the next generation (which she is 100% certain are her children), and tend the homestead and tend what has been gathered and has fewer chances of dying. Please, honestly, who among the two did nature intend for the lineage (and therefore inheritance) to go by?
Again you ignored the premise that there are more than one type of Jew, traditional and reofrmed, just like we have Catholics, Deeper Life and others. Further, your scenario makes zero sense, if the hunter did not bring food home would there be anything to survive on? The house they're living, if he did not build it where would they sleep? Let me now burst your brain, women died way earlier in the olden days than men, from childbirth to simple infections, this is why it is not unusual to find many households with multiple wives.....Again I ask you, who is the true custodian here? Someone that cannot fend for themsleves or the provider?

I must say I asm highly disappointed, I expected you to bring factual evidence with a timestamp, for example an ancient civilization where inheritance was passed down the female line but all you seem to do is bring up conjecture.....STOP IT!

Either you are dense or you are just arguing for argument sake.
There can be a million types of Jews, what we are discussing is the majority traditional Jews!

The issue is not who brought what, the issue is how Nature intended things. Here is how Nature intended things: A man marries a woman or several women and also has concubines. He goes to their houses to get them pregnant and provide as much as he can and be a father figure to the children . Nature did not intend lineage to be through him but through the mothers. That's the only reliable real lineage there can be. "Children of one father" is dubious, "children of one mother" is NOT!

I am SURE my mother's mother is her mother and so forth, going all the way back to the beginning. But I'm not sure mother's father or anybody's father is their father. Gives you an idea what Nature intended!

You and whom discussed traditional Jew? Are you deliberately ignorant? You mentioned traditional and I gave you example of other types of Jews. I even gave you example of catholic and other denominations but your silly ass is hung up on a singular view rather than wholistic view. You keep mentioning nature without providing evidence aside from oh only women can guarantee that they're their children's mother.

Even biologically you must be MENT to believe a man that can impregnate a whole nieghborhood in one month is less of a controller than a woman that can bring a baby once or twice a year.

Fianlly, was this discussion not about inheritance? Let's bring it all back to who creates inheritance and controls it, you really think this was naturally intended to be a woman? you admitted the man hunts, builds house, basically creates all the assets yet the woman controls them? CLOWN TALK! Your argument of nature simply makes no DAMN SENSE!

Ok, you're indeed dense not just arguing. Either that or something is wrong with you. It is not about "many types of Jews". There is a jewish country called Israel. They accept people whose mothers are Jews but not fathers. I only gave that as example. Why are you throwing in Catholics, etc. Are you ok?

Once again, if Nature intended lineage to be by men it'd have made men the ones who bore the babies and raised them. As you said a man can impregnate a whole village and therfore won't have time for them. A woman has only a few and therefore takes good care of them. The man has many women while the woman has only one major man. Nature intended that the woman pass on to her children whatever the man left with her while the man has all his wealth in his women's houses with nothing for him to pass on. That's how Nature intended it. All the man' weath are with his wives and they pass them on to their children! That's what Nature obviously intended. Basically Nature intended that men be disposable. Their job is to impregnate as many women as possible then die. Lineage, inheritance, and all other things are meant to be through women. That's how NATURE intended it!

Jews existed before the modern day Israel, you're just too ignorant to recall! I used the example of Catholics to show you how one religion can have multiple interpretations or belief system since you didn't realize Judaism could be traditional or reformist but once again another point that flew over your head!

Finally you said man's job is to impregnate and die yet he's expected to leave assets and have no say in how they're distributed....ARE YOU MENTALLY CHALLENGED? Use that chatgpt or Google to answer this simple question, who lived longer in the BC era, was it man or woman? You'll be shocked to know men actually outlived women so once again your nature argument is pure LAMBA.....Don't bother replying, your lack of intellect is comedic!

Merry Christmas. So you concede the Jew argument - we have determined that in today's Judaism you're accepted as a Jew only if your mother is a Jew but not your father. So also do other systems by the way - like embassies for immigration, a man has to prove marriage to the mother of the child he wants to immigrate, but a wonan doesn't have to. Simply because a man can have a whole village of children by women he's not married to, can even do it by donating sperm, but a woman can only have a few children.

As for the other point, we are discussing WHAT NATURE INTENDED!!!.
Originally (prehistorically) men used to have sex with a woman and walk away (as nature intended - marriage being man-made), so how will those children be his lineage and inherit from him? I'm awaiting your answer.
Merry Xmas.

The worst thing that can happen to a man is if you fall with the wrong woman......


Na suicide.

It's even better to rise with the wrong woman, than to fall with the wrong woman,

As a man, how to overcome a wrong wife, is to always have money more than her.
So you think having more money more than your wrong wife will save you?
Haven't you heard about husbands been killed by their wife and all their money and properties taken by the wife.
Infact once you know you married a wrong partner, and you're more wealthier than her, just find a way to end that union, don't go around flunting cash or trying to buy her over, they'll bury you in no time, and she'll clam your property.

Re: Dear Men, The Double Standards Are Real by Merry100:
Dpsychologist:
Let’s stop pretending this isn’t happening.

When a man is struggling financially, society mocks him. When a man has erectile issues, he’s ridiculed and written off. When a man falls, people don’t ask why, they mock and move on.

But when the tables turn?
Excuses appear. Sympathy flows. Accountability disappears. This isn’t bitterness. It’s pattern recognition.

Men are expected to be strong before they’re allowed to be loved. Women are often loved while they’re still figuring things out. That’s the reality many men learn the hard way.

So here’s the practical takeaway no emotions, just execution:

1. Build value: financially, mentally, physically. Nobody respects what isn’t solid.
2. Set standards: stop accepting imbalance and calling it love.
3. Demand reciprocity: effort, respect, contribution or walk.
4. Protect your dignity: your lowest moments will not be met with mercy.

As a man, no one is coming to save you. No one will cushion your fall. And no one will hesitate to judge you when you’re down. That doesn’t make life unfair it makes it clear.

So take responsibility for your growth.
Guard your peace.
Choose wisely.
And never outsource your self-worth to anyone.

Compliments of the season.
When a guy reasons this way, try to find out more about his female relatives. It is usually a guy who is the main provider, with all the females in his family relying on him, who thinks like this.

A guy whose sisters are independent or have good careers would hardly think this way.

But marrying the wrong man is long life with enjoyment for women, right🙄?

Whether you rise or fall with the wrong man, it won't matter, the only easy way to overcome such is to just avoid marrying such at all.

I get you, bro. Success is being greater and richer than your wife. No need to work hard or focus on your own progress, just keep monitoring hers.

Your wife's achievements must never surpass yours o. Pursue her, race her, chew on her every move, and limit her at all cost. She is your competition. Once you defeat her, you have defeated success. Good luck, bro.

Hmmm..go to obalende bridge at night or early morning and see so many fallen men, abandoned men , men been spat on... because they failed, because they have no value ..no body send them .. they sleep untop the bridge and rain fall on them... because even under the bridge no more space.

It's a cold world for men.
No value... society hates him, women hates him, even his fellow men hates him.

I wish every struggling men, trying to stay afloat well.
How you sound:

The world is really cold to men. He is abandoned and spat on when he fails, but it is very warm to women. She is even embraced when she fails.

While he is hated by society, and by both women and his fellow men, she is loved by both men and women, and the society at large. She doesn't need to have value; she is just loved.

Not a single woman can be found under any bridge in Nigeria. She is living in luxury just for being a woman. He, on the other hand, is out there bravely struggling under bridges and in offices, while she is given a roof over her head, paid without work, clothed, and fed.

It is either you guys just like tormenting yourselves with imagination, or low-key you want to embrace the prostitution line but feel at a disadvantage. I don't understand where this jealousy is coming from; are the government funding women, or is it that women pluck money from trees?

That is because to a poorer girl, the poor man is rich. I remember when I was in the university I was always shocked when I hear that a poor young carpenter working near my place or the poor young electrician was already married. All of us who did not know him wondered who married him until we saw his wife and then we understood.
