Women Value Men With Resources — Make More of It or Shut up!
A scrub is a guy that thinks he’s fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talking ‘bout what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So, no, I don’t want your number
No, I don’t wanna give you mine
And no, I don’t wanna meet you nowhere
No, I don’t want none of your time (TLC’s “No Scrubs”)
I remember happily singing along to this song when it first came out. Although at the time it never really factored into my worldview, I remember agreeing with the general sentiment of not wanting to give a man a chance, who was below my standards.
Fast forward to the present day with a growing movement of men who resent women who expect and require men to spend their money in exchange for a woman’s time, companionship and courtship. I certainly will not place the blame squarely on men for this shift. The pervasive feminist ideology continues to deliver an extreme version of women’s independence that would deny both the presence and importance of a woman’s basic femininity, while glorifying and promoting a financial model where men receive the same benefits from women that they always received, at half the price. How sway?!
