Dedicated to exposing all the women who complain about wanting a "good man", to show women's poor dating behavior and unreasonable standards while offering little to no value themselves.
I have a few items which might or might not be worthy, so I'd like some input over the next few days. First, is this rather dumb post from a single mom....
@Typo-MAGAshiv At this point I'm not even sure I'm replying in the right thread. But anyway.
I like the post a lot - but it really doesn't fit rule #5. She doesn't really complain about how she wants to date someone special and whatnot; she seems to have gaslit herself enough that she now believes that being single is her choice. She does let it slip a few times about how well that's faring, though. Shitpost Saturday would probably be the best fit.
@woodsmoke I say again: @PolishKnight's OP is a great piece for "shitpost Saturday", and I look forward to seeing it then.
I am 100% in favor of strict adherence to rule 5 Monday through Thursday, and rule 9 on weekends. We have a somewhat narrow focus, and it should stay that way.
Why frame it in this way?
Because that's what I've seen happen to every other RP or RP-adjacent space or content creator who actually acknowledges women's agency rather than simply blaming everything on weak men. From MRAs to MGTOW to passport bros.
That said, it wasn't my intent to ascribe such a position to you and I apologize if it seemed I was putting words in your mouth.
The point is not ridicule women IMO; It is to highlight bad female behavior in the dating market.
Agreed, provided we're doing so within the context of a woman actively seeking commitment while clearly demonstrating attitudes and/or patterns of behavior that discourage men from committing to her.
Otherwise we run the risk of ridiculing women whose only "crime" is ignorance, which makes us the assholes.
Granted, most of us are assholes and proudly so, but I trust you take my meaning.
I just prefer more room to breathe.
Fair enough. That's what the weekend flairs and the tribe are for, as @moorekom noted. Though I suppose we could make a greater effort to make folks aware of the latter. I suspect most of our forum regulars don't spend much time on this side of the site. Maybe we could edit the sidebar on faggit to include a link to the tribe with an explanation of the easier posting rules?
On the other hand, I'd hate to see this space turn into a flood of low-effort memes and shitposting if we were to throw the gates wide like that.
@Typo-MAGAshiv, @Land_of_the_losers, @Impressive-Cricket-8, @lurkerhasarisen, other mods I'm doubtless forgetting: Thoughts?

I have never heard anyone say that - and I certainly did not.

I don't see anything humorous about this woman's post at all. IN fact it is fucking horrifying. and it deserves visibility.
I like how OP pulled together different content (assuming that was done in good faith and it is in deed the same woman). This is good work and more men need to see it.
I get why we have rules. I have been a mod of a few subreddits, so I get it.
AND - we have different flairs for different reasons. Because the key lesson is not always so obvious - and there are different "flavors" of content.
More content is better (within limits, of course). I just prefer more room to breathe.

Going without sex for a long time isn't the same as seeking commitment.
If she's NOT looking for commitment, why would she be engaging in trad-fem games of withholding sex
A lot of women mistakenly believe that the reason their relationships "DiDn'T wOrK oUt" is that they had sex too quickly, too early on, when the real reason is that they suck at picking men and/or suck at keeping men. If you're right for each other and treat each other right, you can have sex at your first encounter and be together forever.
That, and it's a (stupid) power play. A lot of women also mistakenly think that sex only benefits the man (it's supposed to be a mutually enjoyable activity that brings the two closer), and subconsciously realize that they offer nothing besides sex to keep a dude around.
This particular woman in your OP is "happily single" and quite clearly doesn't actively desire a man in her life; she's just open to the possibility of one and wants to string him along to extract maximum benefits from him before she gives him what she thinks is the only thing men want (really the only thing women like her offer) and he inevitability bails like so many others before him.
"He must have left because he got the only thing he wanted . It can't possibly be that he left because I'm an insufferable bitch!"

Rule 5: Submissions must show a woman who is looking for commitment while also either complaining about jerks or promiscuity, needing her kids provided for, being entitled or unreasonable, or complaining that she "can't find a decent guy".
She is not seeking commitment.
How many of our red flags does a woman (or post) need in order to qualify!?
If she isn't seeking commitment, then she could theoretically have infinite red flags and still not qualify.
The "shitpost Saturday" flair is there to accommodate the desire to share such profiles, but we should stick to the theme and purpose that make us unique for the rest of the week.
@woodsmoke well said, and exactly my thoughts
@woodsmoke Agreed.
Weekday content not abiding by Rule 5 goes against the very theme of the sub. For other content, we have the weekend and the tribes. We can still make fun of her here, but our goal is to show dual mating strategy failing or to highlight it so that men can avoid it.
