Why would a man, (bear in mind, we're assuming his basic philosophy is that men are better than women), want to be involved with someone who he does not respect? I would rather be alone than be with someone I consider "less than me." I would not want to be involved with someone who is dumber than me, at a lower station in life than me, who is less ambitious than me, who has less potential than me, who is less attractive than me, etc. The day I lost respect for my first husband was the day I started looking for a lawyer.
The blanket statement of "Men are Better than Women" implies all those things I've just listed. Moreover, it implies a basic, inherent overall disregard/devaluation. I honestly cannot understand being involved in a relationship in any shape, form or fashion with a person I disrespected that much.
Why bother producing children when the only reproductive option is mating with someone you consider inferior? By implication, all you'll get is inferior offspring as the woman contributes half of her genetic material, at the very least, that child is 50% a worthless pile of shit, right? And while we're at it, if women are so inferior, what's keeping you from smothering the female ones while they're still in the cradle?
For that matter, for the men who consider women inferior, why aren't they shooting themselves in the head this very moment, because ALL mammals start out in the womb FEMALE. Female is the default gender, actually, for everything. If that weren't the case, beehives and ant colonies would be inhabited by all brothers.
I don't know any men who truly believe that women are inferior but i know a lot of men who have been hurt by women enough for them to want to slag women off at any given opportunity. It goes the other way too...we've all heard the women in the office who bitch about how useless men are. What i was saying was stupid was your 'why aren'tn they in a homosexual relationship?' comment. Sorry but that is stupid because as you know attraction goes far deeper than any conscious decision.
Also...you're underestimating the value people give to having children. Havn't you seen the couples who were so close and would do anything for each other but then as soon as they have a kid they start arguing and the kid becomes the only thing they love? Having kids is a lot of people's way of understanding the reason for living. Wouldn't it be interesting to speak to Henry VIII and ask him why he felt the need to kill every wife that couldn't give him a son? Now there was a man that didn't care for women much but i don't think he could just turn gay.
