Or they just don't want to deal with feminists screaming "breathing -blam!-" at them.

That's not feminism, that's misandry. There's a huge difference. Being a "feminist" who hates men is like being a peace protester shooting the cops trying to stop them. The percentage of the female population who are raving lunatics like that is pretty small. It just seems like more because the loud ones stand out the most. Deciding not to chase women because some are assholes is a pretty short sighted move, in my opinion.

It's getting harder and harder for many men to tell the difference in practical terms between the latest waves of feminism and misandry. And yes men are disposable in the sexual market, we already know that. One alpha can keep a harem and service many women. And women will willingly get into those kind of relationships. It's always better to get a piece of an Alpha than the whole of a Beta for a woman, at least until the delusion shatters that she can keep said Alpha as she ages. And many of these men that are on strike or going Galt, are simply deciding that the benefits of Fatherhood and being a husband are no longer worth the investment and risk. I do well with women and rarely lack one in my life if I choose to have them there. However, there really isn't much point for many men to deepen or even make a commitment when they see marriage and kids as slavery. What does the inclusion of women into one's life bring other than the possibility of sex that male friends and hobbies cannot fulfill? Men have Porn and fleshlights, escorts and sex tourism, video games and the internet, plenty of food that they don't have to grow and beer. That largely covers the first levels of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and with the inclusion of friends that can pretty well psychologically satisfy plenty of men who have chosen this path. It's cheaper to drop $200 a week on an escort than pay a mortgage to a house that one can't even go to because of the restraining order that one's ex filed when she divorced.

The only way you can't tell the difference from a misanderist and a feminist is if you're an idiot. Not all women at the same. If you don't want kids/family, find another who doesn't and get a vasectomy or something. Don't blame women because some men are too stupid to use protection when they have sex/get in relationships with manipulative assholes. Both genders have opportunistic jerks.
