REVIEW: 30 Reasons why Men Deserve Nothing

By Imani Forester.

10/10 (or 30/30)!

This was a concise, well-written dating manifesto that describes in plain terms why women need to prioritize themselves by raising their standards and enforcing healthy boundaries. After defining the terms in the introduction, Forester provides 30 common sense reasons why men aren’t worth settling DOWN for.

Here are a few (you’ll need to get the book to get the rest)

#1 : “if you build him, he will leave.

#7 : “Your Health depends on his wealth”

#17: “Because they told you to ‘Choose better’”

#21 : “a man is only as good as his current status, Not his Potential”

And my personal favorite

#30 : “Men must build value* and even BUGS know this!”

*she points out that incidentally, men are the ones that obsess over value … we didn’t create the market. We just live here.

She also, wonderfully, provides notes and statistics that support her position. By the end of the book, a woman who is interested in dating will be much better informed ; those who are enjoying separatism will also find a lot of research to support their separatism.

She writes with humour, and her arguments are pretty incontrovertible!

I also watch her YouTube channel - she posts regular responses to current relationship TikTok’s and other women’s issues. Her Channel Imani F. 30 Reasons Why Men Deserve Nothing, @ImaniForester

Check her out ! Buy her book! 📕 it was a great and cathartic and rejuvenating read for me… it feels great to know that if other women are catching on, we may have hope yet.

I think the notion of 'one size fits all' needs to go away. After spending a lot of time closer to nature, I've come to see humans as akin to all other general categories: animals, birds etc -- and there are birds and animals that mate for life, others who are just together for raising their young, others who just hook up and leave each other alone. There are those that spend their time in massive flocks or herds, those that live in small groups or pairs, an others who are extremely solitary. I think we need to recognize that different people have different needs and approaches when it comes to relationships.

This is my view. Sometimes I'll have a nature documentary narration playing in my head when I'm people-watching. lol
