  1. 3:20 As a Russian, I call this bullshit. Men are pressured from birth, women are the ones who raise them, and they try to reformat men to be their servants. From the cradle, mothers begin to instill in them that men owe everyone, and in nurseries and kindergartens, nannies pick up on this. Most teachers in schools are women, and they also broadcast a similar picture of the world. Most of the literature we study contains a similar subtext in one way or another. This can also be seen on TV and in movies. And by the time a man grows up in such a matrix, he usually does not even question the fact that relationships can be built in any other way than fully providing for women. Moreover, these same men will shame others who do not agree to such relationships. At the same time, from the side of women, full provision is perceived as absolutely natural. Most women believe that men should fully provide for them. Most will refuse you on a first date if you are not ready to take them to an expensive restaurant or theater right away (of course paying the bill/tickets). "He asked for a split bill?" Red flag. "He didn't call a taxi?" Red flag. "He didn't bring a bouquet of flowers." Red flag. A man who is not ready for such a relationship model is called a not real man. At the same time, even if you, as a man, agree to such a model, no one will respect you. Because you are weak and agreed to be subordinate in a relationship. Your interests do not exist for a woman. You can be insulted on a daily basis. And the weak cannot be loved, they can only be used. Therefore, they will cheat on you, take away your children (likely not born from you) (and raised with hatred to an awful father) and property in a divorce. And they will tell everyone that you were not a real man for reasons (did not earn enough, did not devote enough time to family, whatever). And even after all this, more than half of men are not able to see the light, because they were brainwashed from birth, and they will blame themselves for everything. And they will go into the same next relationship. There is a film called "Love and Pigeons" from 1985, which has almost everything I described. With an adjustment for the Soviet era and, therefore, much less emphasis on the financial side of the relationship. And yes, there is backlash now when more and more men see the picture and refuse it play this role anymore.
