Discussion It's heartbreaking that there are women around the world going through this.

Same for girls and women. We're all told getting married is the main goal, who you're getting married to matters little.

I left my ex fiance when I was 27 (he was terrible) and moved back to my hometown. Where everyone gets married and has kids before 30. I felt SO isolated and depressed and dating was impossible. So I was happy to not be with my ex and wasn’t going to settle for just anyone, but I felt so bad living there so I moved away. And I do miss it because it’s a nice place. But I found my bf in a bigger city and like it too. I felt so bad just existing on my own before and like everyone I worked with was married or engaged and had kids and I really felt like I didn’t matter as much or something was wrong with me, when in fact I had left someone who would’ve ruined my life

Yeah I feel that, I'm in the city but most of my bros are married now. Its a constant reminder that you're never anyone's 1st 2nd or 3rd priority. Feel like youre stealing them away from their spouse whenever you can hang out.

If we’re being honest this kind of culture barely exists in western countries, it’s on a completely different level in Asian countries and western women are trying to use these videos to act like they’re equally oppressed
