There's no such thing as an independent female

I think he's got a point in that we'd be screwed without men but we'd be screwed without women, too!!!

As a species, men and women need each other.

I think he is getting down the rabbit hole of the red pill, just another idiot who is unable to grasp nuace BUT I also think you're being a bit thick to not get that he is not talking about individuals here.
I mean so what if you've done stuff on your own? This does nothing to negate the fact that men - as well as women-are necessary.

I only hope that you are a MRA troll getting screen shots, otherwise it means that you have been with this bellend for 9 years.

I wonder how he would have got on birthing those children on his own?
How often does he hunt and plop a deer on the kitchen table?
When did he last mend the roof?

We are all co dependent on each other. There is a lot I can’t do that I rely on others to do.

I would be refusing to do anything around the house and let him cope on his own. I’d also be filing for divorce.

My mind is boggling how anyone can marry someone without knowing this very obviously intrinsic part of their character?

Did you not notice?
These men don't really hide these views...

Yes still believes them while trying to convince me how great he is!

Your a qualified engineer and he thinks you “can’t do electrics” and couldn’t survive without him? Is he a bit thick?

Take it as a sign, OP. He will not change. Can't believe he has a daughter and he buys into that shit.

Dear God, my DS 16 has a more critical view of Tate than your DH!!

What a moron- I live in a house of men and they all know that if any of them came out with that crap their lives would become unpleasant. I will not tolerate it and neither should you. Tell him straight, one more comment about what I ‘can’t’ do or anything about Tate’s wisdom and we’re done.

Op I honestly think you need to do something serious about this as you don’t want your DCs growing up believing this stuff.
Not sure where you would start, relationship counselling might be a gentle way in? A external person might get through to him. But tbh it sounds like he is a horrible man there might be no changing his mind. You can’t stay with a man that does not respect women.

It’s time to show him how independent you are and leave. Give him a taste of his independence while you let him look after the children full time.

I'd be tempted to tell him you've done some research and there's a direct correlation between Andrew Tate and men who live in their mums back bedrooms, and not being independent as they are so unattractive to adult women.

I see this stuff as a bit like a cult.

The idea women are incapable of being independent from men is hilarious. What’s his rationale?

@Opinionwontchangeluv you say only lesbians are independent of men. What do you mean by this exactly?

Plenty of women earn their own living, run their own households etc.

So only by being exclusively same-sex attracted can women be independent of men? Those of us who have always lived without involvement with men regardless of our orientation don't count?

No good comes of an impressionable man watching AT. You don't want this influence on your children.

Andrew Tate is an ugly loser and a creep for young women. However really only lesbians I feel are truly independent of a man.

Nah, he's a pig 🐷

You can show him how independent females manage by leaving him

Bet he twists it to you not being independent because of child support - he will see that as him supporting YOU and not the children

In fact ask him about the above ^^ his answer will literally tell you everything you want to know

Sorry you were doing an engineering apprenticeship and he just told you women can’t fix shit? He’s stupid isn’t he?

The whole thing comes across as kind of bizarre because there are plenty of online resources about making money, or resources about making money online, so you could have pursued that without having anything to do with Tate.

However, yes, of course the rant he subjected you to when you said "no" was misogynistic. Only you know if he said a bunch of misogynistic things because he's a misogynist or if there's some other explanation (thinks it's absurd/funny, a wind-up, Devil's Advocate, wanted to see your reaction, etc.), but Occam's Razor says yeah, someone making misogynistic arguments is probably misogynistic.

Beyond that, he seems like kind of a simpleton because if scenarios actually played out where (1) all men disappeared and (2) all women disappeared from Earth, Scenario 2 is the only sustainable one as the women would be able to reproduce using the existing supply of pre-banked sperm, while the men would die out in a generation.

Without Andrew Tate he may not of thought like that.

However now he's basing his own opinion on Andrew Tate's words of wisdom and has succumbed to the cult.

He sounds a bit stupid. God help us if the world was full of men like that. be prepared now. He's shown you a side of himself that really isn't very nice.

Just like there’s some men who can’t hunt, there’s plenty woman who can- trust me we’d function absolutely fine without men if we needed to!

I can change a tyre and dispatch / prepare animal product so I’m over here waiting to do my bit when the time comes ;)

Urgh sorry OP, finding out my partner was following the religion of Tate would make my vagina seal completely shut.

In recent years he seems to have built up a following of inadequates who now seem to have garnered the strength in numbers to bleat his bullshit around. So I can completely understand why it's come as a recent surprise.

*DP, not husband

This. Apart from being morally repugnant, he's a weak minded ego maniac at his core. This is who your husband looks up to. Instant ick.

He's been subtly undermining your confidence all this time, and now he's proving what a misogynistic idiot he is. Is this really the sort of influence you want around your children?
