One common example of this is women with their dating expectations. "He should make 500k a year, be at least 6 feet, good looking, and accept me as I as a single mom with 3 kids."

It is simply a sign of stupidity to not be able to have and accept a realistic assessment of what you should be able to attain, not live in delusion.

How many people have you come across that have unrealistic expectations? And how many of those people with unrealistic expectations have low intelligence?

It seems obvious when I mention it, but I think it is a missing piece in the discussion of those who have unrealistic expectations. They are stupid, plain and simple.

Among the many pieces of propaganda by the LGBT, the "we just want to get married" apparently never really took off even when the Supreme Court just invented the "right" for them to be married in spite of many states voting against it (even California of all states in 2008).

@Fullmetal2255 I would give him the benefit of the doubt if not for the fact that he said "it made sense" to implement it in this way. And the fact that he seems to be aware of the performance issues but still defends it (assuming this is real and not a troll).

@Fullmetal2255 >I'm a React developer so it only made sense

In the field of software engineering, one important part of your job is to not only know if something can technically be done, but also IF it should be done.

@Tfmonkey The big problem with many libertarians is that they think they can implement their policies in any order and cheer even when they get open borders without realizing that having open borders means they will lose any possibility of cutting welfare. "Don't worry, we are working on that problem too!"

That is where the retardation is with many libertarians and the Libertarian party.

@Tfmonkey regarding the Libertarian party, you are correct that they are generally useless and often counterproductive. But with their own words, I have seen them claim to be cutting welfare spending and removing tax dollars from the healthcare system. But since they are only empty words, it is functionally the same thing as them being opposed to cutting that kind of spending.

@Justicar boo hoo life is not fair. Men are stronger than women, especially when it comes to upper body strength. I am not upset that a gorilla is way stronger than I am despite my years of training and the gorilla doing really no training at all.

Something I observed happened to me again. I had eaten a lot of food over 2 days, and the very next day my body stopped giving me hunger signals. It was the opposite of starvation mode (that same term inappropriately used by many who are obese). It was a forced fasting mode.

At least I know that I should not have to worry about gaining too much weight, since my body will simply say "slow down before you get fat!"

@sardonicsmile Perhaps we need to have a collapse and have some readjustment. But I guarantee it will not be pleasant, and women like this will soon realize that the consequences of a lack of investment by men will mean hard times. Eventually we will rebalance to the system where either men are scarce (thus true harems being common) or heavily enforced monogamy. Either way, the feminist system will be necessarily pushed out of the way for a system that can actually function.

@sardonicsmile with a larger number of the men who are unable to have their own woman to pair with, a lot of men have been checking out of the system. You simply will not have men motivated to work hard if they are unable to have a wife of their own to have a family with. The current trend towards soft harems where many women are having out of wedlock children and many men who are left out of the sexual marketplace means we are due for civilizational collapse.

@sardonicsmile the "natural balance" that has fewer men with harems has other consequences this woman has not considered. Civilization is able to be far more advanced when there are more men invested in the system succeeding. Having fewer men means you just don't have the raw numbers for this to be possible. Our current issue is not the total number of men, but men who have a stake in the success. Men who have no wife and kids of their own are not going to be nearly as invested.
