Why do women feel entitled about men and the government needing to always provide for them?

Hi all. I don't understand the female entitlement mentality. Many women, whether they admit it or not, expect the man or the government to give them money, buy them things and take care of them. They don't even say thank you or they appreciate it often. They just take all that help for granted. Do you think this is female nature or nurture? As men in our U.S. society, have we simply just spoiled women, especially with that feminism bs crap? Women should work at a job for themselves and contribute financially in a dating relationship or marriage too. Women who can't financially take care of themselves should not even legally be able to have babies either. The government and the taxpayers are tired of paying for those overused government programs, like section 8, welfare, food stamps and cash payments to women who put themselves in their awful situation. What do you think about all this? Thanks.

    Custodial parents can use that money for anything related to the child... clothes, groceries, rent or mortgage, utility bills, music lessons, braces, etc. Yet the state has better things to do than police the ways custodial parents utilize their child support dollars. How can you prove that the haircut the mother got is from cs payments, or from her own earnings? You can't. As for expecting a salary for being a mother, mothers should be able to EXPECT the fathers off their children to help raise them. Few single mothers are single by choice. But when fathers choose to not continue the marriage (or marry the mother in the first place), that doesn't erase the child's needs. Children are reliant on adults. Their needs trump the wants of adults, every time.

    if u dont give single mums or struggling mums anybenefits or money then its the poor children that suffer. the children of those mums are innocent and are also a reason why the mums can not work. not everyone has family to do free childcare and paid for childcare is very expensive.

    you can start out as a financially secure couple wanting to start a family and then your partner dies or you could accidentally get pregnant due to failed contraception or rape and be against abortion.

    you can have a job and then get fired or made redundant. you can get hit by your mum or dad needs surgery and any savings you have get spent on helping them and you end up broke and in debt.

    u need some empathy and learn that we are all equal, just people trying to live.

    I think you're a misogynist ignorant (some of what you say actually isn't true) dinosaur who's barely made it to the late 20th century, let alone the present day.
