You sound like those alpha male channels on YT. Speaking in sweeping idealistic generalizations about something you haven’t experienced nor know nothing about. Life has nuances. Resources is what motives many women to seek relationships. I can assure you that if the burden of resources wasn’t on women that it would completely change how women date. I mean even with the burden women are gravitating away from the traditionalism you speak of. But I guess we’ll ignore what’s actually happening and instead make reality of what you’d like it to be.
You are not arguing against my points. Resources are not the only thing that gravitates women towards relationships. Companionship, protection, and creating a family are also huge motivations to be in a relationship.
If all the privileges of first world society went away and people had to hunt for food, build houses, and fight others trying harm the village how many women would say they were independent and didn't need a man? How many could built their own huts, hunt their own cows, and fight their own battles?
If we were invaded how many women would say they were independent and take up arms on the frontline? You are under the umbrella of male protection but society is so developed that you cannot see it.
The house you buy is built by men. The car you drive is built by men. Your safety is given to you by men. You are not independent and if all those layers of men that protect you are gone and you had to fend for yourself most women would drop the independent act immediately.
You can back talk men because there are social services to protect you. If society collapses and there are no social services, independent women will end up dying off quickly. There are no feminist in foxholes.
