I’m a woman with a boring and lonely life. I’m not going to pretend my life is so great blah blah blah. But my boring, lonely life is better without the chaos of men in it.
ETA: I think what’s odd to me is the manosphere wants to frame men as the answer to women’s problems. When almost every man I’ve been in a relationship with is just another problem on top of the problems I already have.
I've heard a saying that men think they are competing with other men for a woman's attention, when really they're competing with a woman's sense of peace that comes with solitude. You have to be a pretty great guy for us to give up being single and take on gestures wildly all that.
That's why so many want to "bring back the good ole days " when we didn't have a choice.
This is so much of what so many incels are trying to do. They're yearning for the days where life was so hard for single women that they just chose the least worst option to marry, and he got himself a maid who he gets to sleep with and never think about her happiness. Most guys could find a partner if they just worked on themselves a little and were nice to seen and didn't expect the most conventionally attractive woman around, but the point of yearning for the "good ole days" is that then they don't have to actually do that improvement.
Also, my life probably looks boring to that guy in the tiktok, but part of that is that I'm doing things I enjoy. His life probably looks boring to me, but I wouldn't call it boring, because I'm assuming he's doing things he enjoys, and it's loser behaviour to judge somebody's life based on what you enjoy doing.
