Ah, the "good life"
Men aren't "choosing the good life." They are giving up because the "good life" is gone. Liberalism has been in crisis for decades now. It is the reason the good life is gone in the first place. It only retains legitimacy at all is because of authoritarian (ironic) control of information.
Except most of those men who commit suicide/get addicted to drugs etc etc do it because of the consequences of a woman's action. Either they lost their careers over a fake harassment allegation, or they got divorced and lost everything.
Divorced men have an elevated suicide rate, but I haven't seen anything to suggest that job loss and suicide due to false allegations is particularly common. There is no way false allegations are costing men more jobs than outsourcing and immigration. Also, one of the biggest predictors of divorce is....the husband's job loss.
Yeah, and they dishonestly combine divorced men with never married men in the lifespan statistics so they can push the lie that married men live longer.
And 99% of studies on marriage have heavy selection bias to hide the fact that the majority fail.
Aren't you trying to defend women? That's a pretty large indictment of what kind of people they are.
Most men I've seen get fired, they got replaced by white women. The whole race factor is way, way over-exaggerated.
Not really, if the man's role is the provider, and he can't do that, the whole relationship is going to be in turmoil. One of tradcons' own goals is over emphasizing working a job (which you also do) over fatherhood in the home. They compound the problem by aligning with neoliberals whose solution to a bad job market is to shriek at people for being lazy.
