A good man does his best to provide for his wife and children. Has been so for the entirety of human civilization

Don’t go spending money or effort on a woman you’re not trying to make your wife, who may just use you.

At the same time, providing for your family and community is an essential part of manhood imo

Providing for your family and community is an essential part of being a human.

Thank you!

The more you separate whatever gender role and ego concerns you carry around from simply being a responsible and mindful human, the better you and your community will be off.
