Pretty much. And I can count the actual women I have "dated" on one finger. She seemed like a ditzy blonde, after 3 times, so I decided fuck it. That was when I was 17, and I haven't dated since. And I am 22. I'll bet in 40 years, with the gradual progression of society to the left end of the political spectrum, I will look like a facist. (Hell, I bet some people on this board already think I am one.

) And I don't want children of my own in any remote aspect, so that works out good for me.
I once read a statistic that it takes around $100,000 to raise a child from 0-18. That equates to about $15.22 per day. If I were to invest that in a Roth IRA, I would be a rich man by the time I were to retire. Hell, even in a basic savings account, I would earn $55.553 in interest per year. That would be an actual ROI, (albiet a crappy one). Having a child is just an economic sinkhole.
@medicvet:
I didn't say I wanted a command structure, I just said that I don't want to be on a complete opposite end of the political spectrum than a potential mate. If they believe in income redistribution, free medical care for all, abortion beyond 1st trimester, anti-gun, trust in the government beyond what they have proven trustworthy of, or other socialistic ideals, then I do not want them for a mate. Some dissent is OK by me, but a complete opposite of me politically would cause too much strife in the home. As far as women working, if they want to do it, they should. If they want to stay home and be a wife and mother, then they should.
As far as "assigned roles", right now my assigned role is a housekeeper and laundry guy at a convalesent home. But hopefully that will change soon, I just got approved to take part in a pre-employment skills test over at SEL Inc. I have loyalty to one thing as far as work is concerned, the All Mighty Dollar. If I get an offer for higher pay, and it is steady work, bye bye old folks home!
