"We didn't start the fire. It was always burning. Since the world's been turning" "A world that vilifies men only breeds a generation of men that feel no empathy towards women" “In a woman’s mind , there is really no such thing as a ‘we’. In her eyes, earth allways revolves around her, not the other way around. So thinking that your needs , aspirations or desires are valid enough to be persued, or even that you are entitled achive such goals, is like asking your boss for a pay rise in your very first day at the job.”

I would rather regret not having kids than to regret having kids.

If it has tits or tires, you know you're going to have problems.

The article has very little to do with being a parent.
It has everything to do with women whining about being mothers, and how “hard” it is for her <sniffles>.
Yet another fine example of the grass is always greener anywhere but where they are.

Ladies, you regret having “your children”?
Give them to the fathers (you know the other parent) who want their children.
No, you wont do that though because you lose the financial benefits and social support and sympathy.

It was inevitable.

Women have become so self centered, that now even children are an obstacle to their “happiness”.

Or as it says in the article:

Several women have spoken of a sense of annihilation of self. In 100 Essays I Don’t Have Time to Write, Sarah Ruhl confesses: “There were times when it felt as though my children were annihilating me. Finally I came to the thought, All right, then, annihilate me; that other self was a fiction anyhow.

Eventually they will complain about the trouble of having kids to extract money from a man.

They managed to mention MGTOW in the article without the typical knee-jerk hyperbolic panic attack we’re used to seeing.

Well done Daily Mail.

Quote below:

Tens of thousands of men have formed an online community called MGTOW, or Men Going Their Own Way.

This growing movement advocates eschewing romantic entanglement and encourages what they see as ‘each man’s fight for sovereignty of himself’.

Homosexuality is out; on forums men talk about the advantages of paid heterosexual sex and rail against pop songs as ‘feminist propaganda’.

At least 15,000 men are registered on Reddit’s MGTOW page and that’s only one platform.

MGTOW stated ambition is to cut through collective ideas of what a man is supposed to be. MGTOW men extol their virgin status (long term relationships and babies are not on the agenda), see women’s rights as disadvantaging men, and encourage men to go their own way by ‘forging our own identities and paths to self-defined success.’

The child in the picture seems to be one with Downs syndrome, so regretting to have to bring something like this into the world might be rational. If the kid(s) on the other hand is healthy mentally/physically, then the regret seems worse.

I am absolutely baffled at how many people will bring up the “what if you hit 50 and regret not having kids?” line of thought. Seriously now, this isn’t like regretting playing golf instead of football or buying a car without leather seats. It’s a bloody lifetime commitment. On the off chance that 20 years down the road I regret not having offspring, oh f~~~ing well. Not wanting children and having them anyway out of fear that you’d regret not doing it at some point…….now that is just straight up stupid.

[Faith+1Participant 866]

They say the sound of childrens laughter is magical….the sound of no f~~~ing kids is better imo

They regret having the child? “It takes a lot out of you watching over an infant every day”? I wouldn’t know. You see, when I was still willing to go that route, the women I met weren’t looking for a guy like me. There was always a reason why they didn’t want to go any further. Unfortunately for them, I now walk a different path. I can still look over and see the road that I was previously on and where that could’ve taken me. I’m so glad I got outta there when I did. Ladies, thank you for NOT having sex with me. Ya did me a big favor. Now I’m going to go on down this road, happier with each step.

As a man, you can’t have children anyway. The State has made that very, very clear.

You can merely pay for children. You have zero rights to them or over how to raise them.

Society says you are a man, so f~~~ you. MGTOW says, I’m a man, I’m going my own way.

Usually, a mother’s love for her child is quite strong. It’s probably not a good sign when a mother regrets having her kids. I wonder if the kids pick up on this attitude.
Would the kids be better off in a foster home? I don’t know. Feel sorry for the kids.

[AFTParticipant 2722]

Judging by the density of the packed on foundation, eye-shadow, mascara, lipstick and the length of those eye lashes there are no prizes for guessing why she regrets having kids and where she’d rather be.

Unfortunately kids are a by product of being so stupid as not to take one of many forms of contraception available to a woman, the only real regret she has is missing out on another ride on Chad’s carousel.

When the war cemeteries are half full of the corpses of dead conscripted women, only then will women have earned the right to speak of equality. Sidecar “A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.” - Bob Dylan

100%

I have two daughters. Their mother decided to leave to lick another woman’s vagina. I have seen my children for less than 10 hours in the last four years. I am required to fund them every month.

I’m educated and I have resources. It didn’t matter.
