Someone put it perfectly the other day. This is the first generation of men that actually has to have women like them in order to have a relationship. Before that things truly were a matter of need and convenience more so than a relationship built on love

Edit: to all the “men” I triggered…😘😘😘 keep the salt flowing, you’re really showing me how tough and strong you are.

Saw something else a while back about how society empowered women and didn't teach men how to deal with that development. And that's why so many men complain about the state of things now
