I rather like this bit. Who wants to constantly be made to feel like their partner is doing them some sort of favor?

And what does it say about our view of men that her husband is made out to be some kind of hero for loving her and her son? The post can be said to about a certain kind of misandry, I think, a conception of men as less-than-human in their capacities.
he is a a hero. he wants a wife not a wife and her kid. He is also the one who most likely supports the little runt as well lol. It's bad enough men have to pay all of the finance for their kids, but someone elses? I could also imagine how much the little runt has effected their sex life. This woman also sounds like a one child kind of woman, and so the hubby is screwed if he wants a kid for himself.


Here is a simple guide to avoiding having to raise brats that aren't your own:

1. Don't get involved with someone who has children, you dumbsh*t.

2. See 1.
and I wont but since the writer's husband did she should be grateful
dickhead.


I wasn't actually calling you a dumbsh*t, but way to jump into butthurt retaliative mode anyway.

Why should she be grateful? I can see why she should feel fortunate, but grateful makes it seem like her husband is just dating her as a favour, rather than because he fell in love with her. It carried overtones of "you're just some burden that he's taken on".

Because divorced parents are such awful, worthless people, and their children are loathsome little monsters... so they should be grateful when they find a half-decent partner willing to make such an unhappy compromise, something none of them deserve.

Them's the rules

:P

The kid IS his. He considered the role of father to be part and parcel of dating and then MARRYING a woman with a kid- you should read.

Tell me again why men are saints for being capable of loving and raising non-biological children?

From an evolutionary standpoint, being willing to look after children in such a fashion that is not directly helpful to one's ability to contribute to the gene pool is a reasonably noble trait. Human beings, and most living creatures in general, are genetically programmed to favor our own offspring over those of others because those that didn't were, through time, out-competed by those that did.

In short, due to reasons of natural selection, humans are compelled to want to look after their own offspring. For that reason, I would suspect that it is probably a good idea to try and encourage, praise, and reward the behavior so long as the individual isn't being a dick or manipulative about it.

Past a certain age, a much higher percentage of the dating pool is divorced (or never married) with kids. Some people do not want to date someone with kids. When I met my husband, (I was 21) and mentioned that I was divorced he asked if I had kids. I told him no and he told me good, because he didn't date women with kids. Of course if we were to get divorced now, I'm sure he would date women with kids because probably 75% or more of the single women out there, have kids.

Aimed at the people who would get into a relationship with someone who has kids then complain about the kids
OR
The people who don't realise that it's actually quite simple to avoid dating single mothers/fathers: just DON'T DATE THEM.

I know single parents that remarry and world is not ending. In fact it's very common because there are a looot of divorced people out there and they have children.

About the link... it's the typical internet article that wants a "battle of sexes".

We do however expect you to be fully sympathetic of the males that are going through a similar process on this forum because lets face it,being a male makes everything 100x harder

[/joke]

Also Im happy to see that you found it funny but are you guys in a position to judge?
Do you get tired of people telling you you are wasting your money in hookers RICKI5?, this is exactly the same situation and Im pretty sure you wouldnt want someone making fun of your complaints about how society treats users of the sex industry


Totally in a position to judge. What is the point of going through the stress and financial drain of raising someone else's kid just for what is likely mediocre or non-existent tail?
