Are Relationships a Thing of the Past?

For decades, women have shouted ‘I don’t need a man’.  Instead of the traditional path of a woman finding a compatible husband, she now seeks college degrees and a professional job that make a husband obsolete.  In addition, many young girls were told they should not fall for the first guy.  They should try their options. 

The result of this new revolutionary women’s movement has caused the lowest marriage rates in US history.  Divorce rates are over 50% and there are more young men under 30 who are still virgins than any time in US history. 

In addition, many men have become cautious about marriage.  The risk of losing half their assets and paying alimony for life has become a deterrent.  Furthermore, women say they want to be treated equally.  However, for some reason, when it comes to dating, women want to be treated traditionally.  As men fill the traditional role in dating, they are wondering what’s in it for them.  This has caused many men to take advantage of feminist’s ideals.  Those ideals encourage women to have sex with as many men as possible.  Why?  Because men do it. 

At one time, the end game of dating was marriage or a committed relationship.  Since women no longer need men and men are shying away from marriage, what is the end game?  Sex?  If the ultimate end game is sex, men are wondering why exhaust resources for sex only.  In some cases, dates do not end in sex.  As a result, more and more men are walking away from the idea of traditional dating.  The hook up culture is taking its place. 

Join us for this provocative discussion about the end of an old era and the beginning of a new one.  Who will ultimately win?  Who will lose?
