Then because men traditionally in our industrialized beginnings were the "bread winner" and hence, the minds framework references this nostalgic idea subconsciously and finds it more "just", or simply more "appropriate" to not zap men as often to avoid hurting their feelings? Or is it simply the man doesn't exist in the equation because of this very same fact and that the woman is more appropriate to zap because they, in that same context, "can use it". Same effort or "proof of work" goes into the content posted. No? 🤔
you speak with logic but you are neglecting emotion. being pleasant and catering speaks to emotion. spending money is tied to emotion much of the time. as men we normally dont face the customer/public although we may be the one doing the labor. men tend to be more critical and skeptical of one another. but men and willing to relax certain boundaries and standards when it comes to women. shrewd businessmen have mastered this concept, "put your best face forward" aka a woman.
I'm not neglecting anything lol. It's an open discussion and I have no predisposition. Hearing out the crowd and letting it roll baby, roll 🎶
do you think emotion has anything to do with the zaps? do you think the men on here "feel" manly to support the ladies here? do you think men find support other men finacially as a burden?
Bits and pieces of those questions have to be in the soup. But I ALSO find it extremely interesting I notice the same behaviour out of women. As in, women zap women at the same clip they are received from men.
yes, women like women. lol
i dont think its guilt as much as a power play. like, look i can shower you with sats i am a great man. men feel good supporting women. men feel like men are leeches and should pitch a tent.
Yes. So the prior part of this statement does come down to an age old ritual of courtship/gamesmanship then. Well, where it has evolved to. Certainly not organically, but definitely not ALL nurtured - so to speak. Some with talent, wrote symphonic orchestras. Some with money paid sculptors to Chisle a gift and presented gowns, perfumes. Then that changed with industrialization but the end goal of the behaviour was the same. Perhaps buy flowers, chivalry, provide for a family. Now we're zapping on a P2P network on opposite sides of a medium from across the world. Lol
