When a 47 year old guy who wasn't suffering from cancer and doesn't have a history of illness "dies suddenly", its typically suicide. Surprised?

Regardless of the circumstances of their marriage, I'm very sad for the guy. Dying at 47 sucks shit. Hate hearing this kind of stuff.

A 50 year old guy dropped dead at my workplace a few years ago. I was 50 at the time. Suddenly the fear hits you.

I know what you mean - sucks seeing guys your own age drop dead! That didn't happen at 35 :/

The stresses and turmoil of living with a masculinized harpy surely is a contributor to a man's early demise.

My thought as well. The stress and nonstop unhappiness of having to live with an over the top obnoxious harpy like that would certainly lead to health issues.

I think it gets to the point that first you turn to unhealthy habits to get a small bit of pleasure and escape from the misery. Looking at the pictures I would say both a sedentary life style and lots of unhealthy food.

Go a step further and imagine how miserable this guys life must have been. All the stress from his full time job, then to go home to someone so self hating and miserable as this woman. The only time he got to escape it was when he was asleep and I bet he didn't get much of it either.

All that money, and no freedom or strength to enjoy it. Horrible.

She rode his ass to do housework and watch the kids to free her to be the "alpha male" of the relationship.

He swallowed the blue pill in theory, but biology doesn't give a shit about feminist dogma. I'm sure inside he was miserable being emasculated and not having a sweet and nurturing wife, but a hard ass instead.

Then he feels trapped keeping up appearances that he has some ideal marriage for our times, when inside he knows it sucks.

They haven't released the cause of death yet, so it it's probably something embarrassing. I wouldn't be surprised if it was suicide.

On the off-chance someone on this forum eats something poisonous and needs to vomit immediately, here's a New York Times article about his support for women in the workplace. I've added some commentary in bold.

Dave Goldberg’s Lifetime of Advocating for Women

By Jodi Kantor

Even as a high school student, Dave Goldberg was urging female classmates to speak up. As a young dot-com executive, he had one girlfriend after another (money-grabbing whores, you mean?), but fell hard for a driven friend named Sheryl Sandberg, pining after her for years. After they wed, Mr. Goldberg pushed her to negotiate hard for high compensation and arranged his schedule so that he could be home with their children when she was traveling for work.

Mr. Goldberg, who died unexpectedly on Friday, was a genial, 47-year-old Silicon Valley entrepreneur who built his latest company, SurveyMonkey, from a modest enterprise to one recently valued by investors at $2 billion. But he was also perhaps the signature male feminist of his era (imagine this being your legacy): the first major chief executive in memory to spur his wife to become as successful in business as he was, and an essential figure in “Lean In,” Ms. Sandberg’s blockbuster ("Blockbuster?" Is this PR or a newspaper article?) guide to female achievement.

Over the weekend, even strangers were shocked at his death, both because of his relatively young age and because they knew of him as the living, breathing, car-pooling center of a new philosophy of two-career marriage. (Two-careers + kids = exhaustion x extra-stressful jobs = early death. Not a surprise equation.)

“They were very much the role models for what this next generation wants to grapple with,” (the "next generation" of Americans will be working-class Hispanic, so I don't think so) said Debora L. Spar, the president of Barnard College. In a 2011 commencement speech there, Ms. Sandberg told the graduates that whom they married would be their most important career decision. (He should have covered "Friends Forever." Anyone remember Vitamin C's grad song from '99?)

In the play “The Heidi Chronicles,” revived on Broadway this spring (as a money-losing flop), a male character who is the founder of a media company says that “I don’t want to come home to an A-plus,” explaining that his ambitions require him to marry an unthreatening helpmeet. Mr. Goldberg grew up to hold the opposite view, starting with his upbringing in progressive Minneapolis circles where “there was woman power in every aspect of our lives,” Jeffrey Dachis, a childhood friend, said in an interview.

The Goldberg parents read “The Feminine Mystique” together — in fact, Mr. Goldberg’s father introduced it to his wife, according to Ms. Sandberg’s book. In 1976, Paula Goldberg helped found a nonprofit to aid children with disabilities. Her husband, Mel, a law professor who taught at night, made the family breakfast at home. (From what I can find on the Web, Mel died young as well. Draw your own conclusion.)

Later, when Dave Goldberg was in high school and his prom date, Jill Chessen, stayed silent in a politics class, he chastised her afterward. He said, “You need to speak up,” Ms. Chessen recalled in an interview. “They need to hear your voice.” (Is this "feminist game?" If so, clever.)

Years later, when Karin Gilford, an early employee at Launch, Mr. Goldberg’s digital music company, became a mother, he knew exactly what to do. He kept giving her challenging assignments, she recalled, but also let her work from home one day a week. After Yahoo acquired Launch, Mr. Goldberg became known for distributing roses to all the women in the office on Valentine’s Day.(Isn't that sexual harassment?)

Ms. Sandberg, who often describes herself as bossy-in-a-good-way,
(Wants to ban a word, yet uses it to describe herself. Hmm.)
enchanted him when they became friendly in the mid-1990s. He “was smitten with her, even when she was engaged and married to someone else,” Ms. Chessen remembered. After Ms. Sandberg’s marriage ended (can't imagine why), she dated other people, but Mr. Goldberg still hung around, even helping her and her then-boyfriend move (what?), recalled Bob Roback, a friend and co-founder of Launch. When they finally married in 2004, friends remember thinking how similar the two were, and that the qualities that might have made Ms. Sandberg intimidating (i.e. annoying -- only women's looks can really be intimidating to men) to some men drew Mr. Goldberg to her even more. (OK, I'll at least give the guy credit for getting out of a friend zone.)

Over the next decade, Mr. Goldberg and Ms. Sandberg pioneered new ways of capturing information online, had a son and then a daughter, became immensely wealthy, and hashed out their who-does-what-in-this-marriage issues. Mr. Goldberg’s commute from the Bay Area to Los Angeles became a strain, so he (Just him?) relocated later joking that he “lost the coin toss” of where they would live. He paid the bills, she planned the birthday parties, and both often left their offices at 5:30 so they could eat dinner with their children before resuming work afterward. (Yes, because life revolved around "work work work!" Do the people that write these stories even get how they're corporate-whoring?)

Friends in Silicon Valley say they were careful to conduct their careers separately, politely refusing when outsiders would ask one about the other’s work: Ms. Sandberg’s role building Facebook into an information and advertising powerhouse, and Mr. Goldberg at SurveyMonkey, which made polling faster and cheaper. But privately, their work was intertwined. He often began statements to his team with the phrase “Well, Sheryl said” sharing her business advice. He counseled her, too, starting with her salary negotiations with Mark Zuckerberg. (Yes, whether to take a half billion or billion is "negotiation. If you lose, you still win.)

“I wanted Mark to really feel he stretched to get Sheryl, because she was worth it,” Mr. Goldberg explained in a 2013 “60 Minutes” interview, his Minnesota accent and his smile intact as he offered a rare peek of the intersection of marriage and money at the top of corporate life.

While his wife grew increasingly outspoken about women’s advancement, Mr. Goldberg quietly advised the men in the office on family and partnership matters, an associate said. Six out of 16 members of SurveyMonkey’s management team are female, an almost unheard-of ratio among Silicon Valley “unicorns,” or companies valued at over $1 billion.

When Mellody Hobson, a friend and finance executive, wrote a chapter of “Lean In” about women of color for the college edition (WTF? Why would a book for adults need a "college edition?!" College students are supposed to be reading ABOVE the level of the average adult, most of whom do not attend college. Wait, colleges are mostly female, so strike that. Maybe they need a children's edition.) of the book, Mr. Goldberg gave her feedback on the draft, a clue to his deep involvement. He joked with Ms. Hobson that she was too long-winded, like Ms. Sandberg, but aside from that, he said he loved the chapter, she said in an interview.

By then, Mr. Goldberg was a figure of fascination who inspired a “where can I get one of those?” reaction among many of the women who had read the best seller “Lean In.” (You mean where can they get a multi-millionaire? Not a new thought amongst women.) Some lamented that Ms. Sandberg’s advice hinged too much on marrying a Dave Goldberg (You think? Guess that's why she un-friend-zoned him), who was humble enough to plan around his wife, attentive enough to worry about which shoes his young daughter would wear, and rich enough to help pay for the help ("The Help?!?!" Wasn't that a movie about how the rich exploit the working class? Interesting that the writer throws this phrase in, not quite getting its ramifications. They're not actual people to the NY Times. Just "the help.") that made the family’s balancing act manageable.

Now that he is gone, and Ms. Sandberg goes from being half of a celebrated partnership to perhaps the business world’s most prominent single mother (Pet peeve: She's not a single mother! She's a widow. This is a misuse of that phrase. I hate when people do this; now the NYT is doing it.), the pages of “Lean In” carry a new sting of loss.

“We are never at 50-50 at any given moment — perfect equality is hard to define or sustain — but we allow the pendulum to swing back and forth between us,” she wrote in 2013, adding that they were looking forward to raising teenagers together.

“Fortunately, I have Dave to figure it out with me,” she wrote.

No, I'm against calling for bans on anything, unless we're talking about people making direct physical threats to someone.

A better idea would be a "Back to the Kitchen" campaign targeting feminists. Or something like "Nice Legs, Shame About Her Brain."* I actually find Sandberg really attractive (she looks something like my ex-wife), but her mind ruins it. Didactic, controlling, aggressive women are as appealing to men as men scared of mice are to women.

That might play well, and I'd encourage everyone not to forget about this in the coming weeks, especially anyone writing for Return of Kings.

Feminists have spent the last twenty years pushing for money and campaigns about women's health when Western men have died on average five years earlier for the past century. (Senator Barbara Mikulski was in the vanguard of this.)

It would be the ultimate cruel irony if Goldberg died from a disease that's been overlooked because of all the "wear pink ribbons"-type campaigns. And if that's the case, I wonder if his widow would realize that and start one of the her famous campaigns about men's health.

And for the record, Sanberg totally killed her husband.

Post: #113

Tech companies tend to be grossly overvalued because the services they provide are grossly overvalued. I mean, is an iPhone REALLY worth $700?

Let's put it another way. The electrical grid fails tomorrow. You and I can't charge our laptops/smartphones/whatever else. How much is any of it worth then? Probably no more than the metal we can extract from it.

It's a sense of value, rather than actual value, that drives most of the tech world.

Sheryl Sandberg wrote how every woman should have a husband like her own, but look what happened.

Quote:Because Sheryl Sandberg, who was married to him, is not only Facebook’s COO, but she is also the author of the book Lean In. That book tells women that they should have a career like Sheryl’s. And, most significantly for this post, that women should pick a spouse like Dave.

According to the NY Times, David Goldberg died when he collapsed in the gym during a workout:

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/05/techno....html?_r=0

Quote:SAN FRANCISCO — The death of Dave Goldberg, the chief executive of SurveyMonkey and husband of Sheryl Sandberg of Facebook, occurred Friday night after he collapsed at the gym at a private resort in Mexico, a person close to the family said on Monday.

Mr. Goldberg, 47, who was on vacation with family and friends, collapsed while exercising, said the person close the family, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the family wished to keep the details private. “Efforts to revive him at the gym and at a hospital were unsuccessful,” the person said.

It sounds like a cardiac event, which was always much more likely than suicide. Very few men kill themselves the same day they have arrived at their vacation spot with their family; maybe more should, LOL, but that is not usually how it goes.

EDIT: as much as I detest Sheryl Sandberg, I don't think we will win many hearts and minds by trying to blame her husband's death on feminism. Normal people will feel sympathy for a woman who just lost a husband in his prime, and any attempts to blame her for his death will be considered in very poor taste.

http://www.cosmopolitan.com/career/advic...k-excerpt/

Quote: When women work outside the home and share breadwinning duties, couples are more likely to stay together. In fact, the risk of divorce reduces by about half when a wife earns half the income and a husband does half the housework. For men, participating in child rearing fosters the development of patience, empathy, and adaptability, characteristics that benefit them in all their relationships. For women, earning money increases their decision-making ability in the home, protects them in case of divorce, and can be important security in later years, as women often outlive their husbands. Also--and many might find this the most motivating factor--couples who share domestic responsibilities have more sex. It may be counterintuitive, but the best way for a man to make a pass at his wife might be to do the dishes.

I could not do what I do without my husband, Dave. Still, like all marriages, ours is a work in progress. Dave and I have had our share of bumps on our path to achieving a roughly 50/50 split. After a lot of effort and seemingly endless discussion, we are truly partners.

The good news is that men in younger generations appear more eager to be real partners than previous generations did. A survey that asked participants to rate the importance of various job characteristics found that men in their 40s most frequently selected "work that challenges me" as very important, while men in their 20s and 30s most frequently selected having a job with a schedule that "allows me to spend time with my family." If these trends hold as this group ages, this could signal a promising shift toward greater equality.

Wonderful, sensitive men of all ages are out there. And the more that women value kindness and support in their boyfriends, the more men will demonstrate it.

So, when looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitmentphobic boys, the crazy boys. But do not marry them. The things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated, and ambitious. Someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. And at the start of a romance, even though it may be tempting for you to show a more classic girlfriend-y side by cooking meals and taking care of errands, hold yourself back from doing this too much. If a relationship begins in an unequal place, it is likely to get more unbalanced if and when children are added to the equation. Instead, use the beginning of a relationship to establish the bar for the division of labor. (For more on how to do this, turn to page 24 for "50/50: The Real Way to Have It All." )

Gee, what could possibly go wrong with this advice?

So, listen up all you nice guy betas out there. Sit on the sidelines and let me fuck to my hearts content for the next 15 or so years. Then you can pay for my used up vagina with my non-stop nagging and bitchy dominance until you decide to blow your brains out in your 40s.

I mean, OMG. WOW. Just. WOW. What kind of sorry excuse for a man doesn't see the value in a used tire with no tread and plenty of sun baked cracks.

Modern women's primary hamster masturbation fantasy is having TWO or more high-powered men competing for them. Once they start fantasizing about it, you can be sure that it's all just being invented...no relation to reality whatsoever.

Oh, and having your billionaire hubby croak isn't a cause for tears. Women whoop it up when this happens. If hubby doesn't conveniently croak, then second best is to divorce him. This is the age...once they are over the hard years of caring for babies, and hubby has acted as protector and nursemaid, then the wife can dump him and go back out and have fun. Often if she's lucky, the poor chump will get stuck with 90% of the child care duties even after the divorce, and so she gets all the benefit of kids without actually doing the hard work.

You've never seen a fat person in the gym?

Honestly, unless you get better evidence, best to STFU about the conspiracy theories.

And to no one in particular, don't pretend you gave a shit about this guy, a male feminist, if you didn't - then you're trying to show off his corpse to make a currently baseless point.

"If this gets confirmed as a suicude, this will be another huge defeat for feminism."

No, it won't. If mass bastardy, divorce and parental truancy didn't do feminism in, some guy offing himself sure as fuck won't kill it either.

"The good news is that men in younger generations appear more eager to be real partners than previous generations did."

Those would be the generations where couples stayed married "till death do us part," and before the 50 percent divorce rate.

Those are also the generations before women got the houses, savings accounts, and kids in divorce settlements.

You wonder if these people really think through what they're writing. How can someone be considered a "business leader" yet write something that misses such a big point when it comes to marriage?

This reminds me of a rock story when a band went to record a new album and the record company cautioned them "dont' make it like the last one." They had to remind the exes that the "last one" had two Number One hits. (The band was Blondie, by the way.)

Did you even lift bro?

We all know the answer to that. Lifting weights, for many years, would have helped prevent his premature death.

Start lifting when you are young and make it a lifelong habit. Don't stop lifting after you settle down and have a family. This poor sap never even started lifting. And I can imagine day to day life with that harpy shrew sandberg raised his cortisol levels over time and led to his cardiac arrest. Deat by henpecking and being a beta.

Another interesting point that never gets brought up is why Jewish men are increasingly avoiding marriage to jewish women like Sandberg. And it's precisely because of their tendency to be "smart, opinionated, and strong" as that cunt herself reveals. The best hope for tribe girls is an overweight (but successful) beta who she can control and manipulate, but who will never excite her in the way that she really wants. Jewish guys seem to be waking and have been hooking up with Asian girls in recent years and I hope the trend continues.
