yeah, but that's easily avoidable right? a guy like that exists in a sphere completely different than here, or in a homesteading sense. that guy is already locked into the matrix. Is it that common it even needs to be mentioned? is it as common as women who seek makeup, expensive cars, long fake nails, and huge homes with insane mortgages?

Hi Lachlan
I have to agree, from a number of personal experiences over the last couple of years, I do think there are braver woman who are out there and willing to work at the hard tasks involved in working from the ground up, but they are very rare and most seem to still think it’s our job to prepare everything, as you say, do not think it is their fault as that is how they are brainwashed into that type of thinking where as in many countries, away from the west, they do much of the hard work on the land in all its different aspects, I feel we should work with the talents we have and ideally a partner can complement you, with a combined effort that help you both achieve your own goals as well as the combined goals. On the other hand it just maybe us, and it has nothing to do with the way we perceive things to be, I know some people find me a little scary because I am a little out there for many.

As men, I feel our role is to be a visionary and builder. Some women are pretty cool and can do this, but there's so much talk of devine masculine and feminine lately. There's so many factors to modern life and society that it appears the hurdle is a very high jump to line everything up just right so we can all let our guards down, embrace one another, and live our best lives *together*.

It's actually hard to start from the bare earth. Take a look at most people, and it's all about selling the vision, and not actively homesteading yet. As a man, I'd like to have a woman to build this life together from the very beginning. It feels like right now, I'm selling a lifestyle on a futures market. Most women would feel more comfortable if the place is already up and running. It feels like they're waiting at the finish line and picking a winner.

Well, I had better get back to work!

You're pretty closeby to me! I have some earthworks needs, and am looking into an excavator or perhaps hiring that out. You've done pretty well so far. Feel free to reach out

Hey, I was on that facebook group you posted on. I think we both got banned from the group, and accused of being fake at the same time. This place has much better energy.

42 male here

I'm a 42 male homesteading in Southern Colorado. Salida is amazing! How off-grid would you like to be?

Certainly sounds interesting. I'm a 42 year old male in the states and have had a desire to move a little more south so to speak. What's your life like in Ecuador?

You look like a keeper. Glad you're available again, it would seem you may have had a previous relationship you were still holding onto?
