i am not saying it's not ok for some individual men to be feminine if they want to follow that advice, but it's not a good for men as a group or for humanity as a whole. so no, most men don't need feminism. some may need it as a last resort if their only alternative is to kill themselves. choose wisely.

Intersectionality is a concept that emerged from Black Feminist Thought. The experience of black women cannot by reduced to the sum of the woman experience and the black experience, when black woman experience gendered oppression this oppression is racialized. It's all about searching for the root causes of injustice and unfairness in our society. how does dominant society shape one's ideas and limit people? Why shouldn't women be in positions of power? why shouldn't men be allowed to wear dresses? All in all, it is a really interesting subject, but /lit/ unfairly dismisses it.

i don't know, i can understand feminism where women want to be dudes, but i don't get this kind of feminism where they basically want to remove all structures and without structures all the multiplicity of identities would flourish. but at the same time the goodies that are produced by the current structures would still be kept, how? is this second step that i don't get.

like this kind of theories and feminism is only able to flourish in a very specific context, of ulta-capitalist and wealthy countries, with very sheltered colleges/organizations that are given a lot of freedoms and very little responsibility.

seems very bourgeois to me, and i don't see how that multiplicity won't be devoured as soon as there's some pressure for results and an ideology with a clear path is put forward that swipes away all the other fragile identities.

It's not about searching for the root cause of injustice in society it's about cramming society into your limited ideas of class warfare and power dynamics to justify your inherent resentment. Concepts such as merit don't really exist in this epistemology, being only considered as a tool to legitimize the privileged.

Being black in USA is one of the most privileged positions to be in, not only materially, but due to globalism also culturally (you have access to influencing millions with your ideas, does that mean according to your own epistemology that you are actually the dominant class when taken to a global scale? If so, shut the fuck up, you retarded, mouthbreathing, nigger is not racist.)

Any sort of system of knowledge that lays the ills of the world on broad overarching concepts such as "culture" ore "history" is suspect, since the way you can extrapolate narratives from these subjects is incredibly vast.

I like how everything can be discussed on 4chan, except some of it can't. I think the concept of intersectionality is useful, as far as I understood it, though the bitter truth is that I am not fat positive, not in favour of body modification and honestly I am a classist.

I think however that instead of being fat negative we should be negative of certain food habits, as there are plenty of people who eat bad without getting fat by it.

I am not trans inclusive in the sense that I think that body modification is wrong. That applies to hormone treatment and plastic surgery. I cannot give a good rationalization for it, but I feel as if it is cheating. For people who do not feel they are their biological sex I think the concept of a two spirit as practised by Indians is more progressive.

My class hatred is directed to the middle class and new money. I hold a rather reactionary view in which I think the equalisation in some forms was bad. I have to interact with people with who have no aspirations at all "to live the good life" to use a lame phrase. When I say I loathe new money it is more so that I'm repulsed by the wasteful lifestyle which isn't even restricted to new money by the way, even old money has people like that, and so do other classes.

With these kind of ideas I am not welcome in any political communiy so I'm sort of glad we can have this discussion.
>>
>>9777947
imo intersectionality doesn't go far enough in its attacks on the ideology of meritocracy, ultimately reinforcing the reigning order of things. Intersectionalists are fixated on a liberal notion of 'fairness', their goal is a 'fair' society in which all people have access to 'equal opportunities'. However, they never really critique the form of the society itself: they complain about the 'unfairness' of the game but yet insist we keep playing it. 'social progress' is institutionalized and made synonymous with individual advancement within the corporate ladder, media and academia. That's what Deleuze meant when he talked about the society of control. Identity is now something to be managed and micromanaged, the objective is not liberation but management. Conservatives misunderstand the nature of modern capitalism, the time of rugged self made entrepreneurs is past and definitely not coming back. The management of social capital is the key to post industrial capitalism.
>>
>>9777931
I think its very class based as well. Either your country has the structures, economy, and education to implement these ideas or your country doesn't. There are no completely blank societies where you can implement feminist ideals from the ground up but instead it must always be implemented from the wealthy elite down through society. Feminism certainly isn't a unified movement as there are many fractured ideologies which battle, support, and dismiss each other. However, mainstream feminism is certainly a class based movement and unless communist-like vanguard proletariat feminism catches on to the popular movement then it will remain a bourgeois movement.

It's profoundly unhealthy for the individual and society for women and their allies to spread the lie that there is anything more fulfilling for a woman than being subservient to a man and staying home to raise his children. Nothing will ever change this basic sociobiological fact.

i think part of the problem is that there's a huge part of the population that has never built anything with their hands, or created anything real.

they have lived for too long on the information economy and believe that ideas can be conjured from thin air from their perspective, without acknowledging the whole lot of work and suffering that there's behind everything we give from granted. from that phenomenological point of view it's very easy to decide that you can tear down all the structures that form our society because they are oppressive and at the same time keep the fruits of the society because you have never experienced the manual work that there's behind anything as simple as a manufactured table, a piece of food, or even something "abstract" like a functional nuclear family.

I think most modern feminism argues equality with marxists methods but on the basis of Enlightment ideals.

As long as you can't extrapolate social needs out of human beings there is no liberation outside of a system based on social capital.
The ideal of the self made entrepreneur seems alive and well since the management of social capital seems to be a skill in itself on which you can base a concept of "meritocracy".
>>
>>9778215
Yes, I'll second reading Dworkin to get to the root ideology of contemporary feminism. No one better illustrates how anti-human and anti-woman this strain of thought is. If her vision of women's liberation were to come to fruition, it would be a reign of totalitarian horror ending in the extinction of the race.

The average feminist, not feminist author, but just supporter of the concept believes basically:
a. women have been historically oppressed
b. there is no longer a reasonable justification for many of the traditional roles for women since the industrialization of the west
c. women should now no longer have the same identity of caretaker / homemaker and are equally competent members of the workforce so
d. should get paid more money (wage gap meme)

Intersectionality steams from (a) as it's apparent that women were not the only oppressed group, but how much the average person cares about marxist inspired revolution with a IdPol flavor is very small and basically just results in them voting in favor of affirmative action and then giving up on the issue

>So can you explain what in your view would be social progress?

An end to the dictatorship of the political economy, of which the economy of social capital is only an outgrow. The singleminded focus on individualistic 'success' within the established structures of the market provides with a very narrow vision of what human life can be.

It's worth noting that the new wave of social liberalism started in the Obama era, after the mortgage crisis dashed the black middle class' hopes for economic advancement. progress moved on to the realm of the spectacle. Intersectionalism merged with middle class ideology and became just another way to enforce middle class mores. ie. You should eat your vegetables because children in Africa are starving. An useful tool for keeping downwardly mobile middle class whites in line. Or perhaps not so useful. Who knows what's next?

Pop Psych mindfuckery is an american tradition with a long and storied past. Schools and corporations use tools derived from ESALEN and Werner Erhardt to fuck with you constantly. Wonder where that emphasis on and ritualised displays of 'authentic' emotion comes from?

I'm married with children. Deprogramming my wife of her liberal feminist indoctrination was one of the greatest challenges of my life, and now she's never felt more fulfilled than living her role as a loving, nurturing mother and sexually submissive wife.

Most of her friends are childless and past the point of viably having children. Seeing them go through this realization has been both educational and rewarding. They are miserable, plagued by addictions and/or mental illnesses, a few are outright suicidal. I seriously believe the female mind and body are programmed to self destruct if they pass childbearing age without producing offspring. I just need to do the research.

>>
>>9778537
no, because all these progressive ideologies are the most western-centric currents of thought ever created, which is quite ironic.

they know how to hide it, but as soon as you scratch the surface it becomes clear that they place western white men as the true universal subjects with agency. in this worldview minorities have no agency, and thus no guilt nor responsibility. they just form part of the blob of their groups, while western white men have to take responsibility and address the issue.

which i can understand why they do it strategically, the problem will be if at some point western white men are actually dethroned, if the group that takes over afterwards can be manipulated in the same way. at this point it seems that group could be islamic men, and everything indicates that they will not be manipulated by those tools.

i'm not /pol/ and i don't think this will actually happen. but if this progressive ideology were to run its course that seems to me to only logical conclusion. once you remove the group the personifies all the guild that fuels your ideology you are left with a vacuum and nothing else.

Hispanic/Chicano/Latin(x) already consider themselves white but mixed with the indigenous americans, and follow a mixture of Catholic and Marxist ideas, not very different from the average modern american w/ northern European heritage (aside from latin americans actually having some historic claim to the land)
There's little risk of America being dethroned by a islamic group, and the 'reconquistas' assimilate well (seeing as their states are already republics with similar history to the US, but spanish rather than anglo)

also all the things you mention, for them to exist, you need a system a values in which people advance in accordance to the fulfillment of that paradise. once such a system is established people will start selecting mates based on that system (you also need new generations to perpetuate that system). once mate competition starts individuality is sure to appear.

we will have to sit down for this one, please, i beg you, ungirdle yourself and remove your penis, for i cannot talk to you man to man on this question, but we must speak as eunuchs, and, of course Jews, for George Soros, the author of the Elders of the protocols of Zion, created the Hebraic original of intersectional before Peggy McIntosh had learnt not to shave the hair under her armpits in order to virtue signal on college campuses to severely ambitious, ideologically and intellectualy serious, middle class cunts. now, don't get me wrong, monsieur. i am as identitarian as the next homose - as the next man, monsieur, i mean, the next eunuch, monsieur, for to even discuss this, my penis has instinctively conditioned itself through necrosis and mortification, to become a vagina, so that i may express, monsieur, my identity, to you - to all of you - now, monsieur and mes gays, that i am now - pray tell friend - trans + shift key + the star thing. now, you understand my homosexuality puts me at such a place of oppression on the Hierarchy of the great chain of slave morality, that i may now begin to speak to you unreservedly, seriously, one Gay Unto Another, who does not believe Race Is Real. now, all of this, then, by way of preface, let us - let us fall to, like men in arms, like neo-homosexual yellow journalists, buzzfeed entrepreneur acephobic queersexual aliens.

to truly understand any stand of feminism, even the strand which sits, like a Phallic Signifier, at the core of Really Existing Online SJW and Call Out Culture, one has to go, like Bentley, monsieur, like Wilamowitz, monsieur, yes, like all the great classical philologists, to the pierian fount. what is that, monsieur? what is the source? why, monsieur, the answer is simple. not a myriad of blue stockings in the nineteenth century, their confluence with working class women and their own contingents, unions, halls, RABBLES - i mean, excuse me, monsieur, their circles - no. there is no material history here, monsieur, no grand chain of influence and dysfluence, of Bloomian anxiety, rather, there is a single source, invisible, demonic, and deeply at odds with racial science: a lonely figure in european history, a people who one may mythologically figure as a kind of parasite, a creature that lives off the crumbs of others, worshipping defiantly the old religion and its monolithic god-protector. you know exactly who i mean, monsieur, and i don't need to say any more. i have said enough, monsieur. you all know - you all KNOW - of what, of whom, of that. but, enough, monsieur. you may gain a sufficient knowledge of the "surface" expression of this figure, whom i may not name, through its Hydra-like expression in social degenerates who call themselves intersectional feminists, whose one goal, monsieur, is of course the destruction of western civilisation, defended heroically by gamers.

Men dull their emotional instincts because society itself is incompatible with a man's inherent need to dominate. A man who doesn't sublimate his will, at least in public, is subject to being killed or ostracized. Raping and pillaging is what a society that doesn't ask men to dull their emotional instincts devolves to.

yes, monsieur, there is of course truth to it. but even the manosphere says things like this: Jordan Peterson says the same thing, however, via his evolutionary patois: the "dominance hierarchy" forces men to compete viciously against each other. the name of patriarchy denominates a system that benefits patriarchs, rather than masculinism or one of my noble country's inventive alternatives, like phallocracy (derided by transgender activists).

whatever the merits of feminist literature, bell hooks is the proverbial JK ROWLING of it, and intersectionality is an impoverished and metaphysical sociology which reifies privilege theory, which on the one hand, is a dumb meme for all kinds of overly sensitive cucks on the internet, and on the other is an incredibly vague heuristic for learning what Peterson would sagely call "the dominance hierarchy"

Why the hell don't women understand they they select for dominance? Even women who don't care about money or power but only go after physically attractive men, they choose for features that indicate physical dominance, like musculature, height, jaw-width, etc. Even the women who claim to care about personality above all go after men who display social dominance through charisma. Women select for the very qualities they claim oppress men.
>>
>>9781230
ah, calm down, monsieur, this is a feminist thread. the least sign of a temper will be interpreted as sexual frustration, and you will be mocked as a virgin who is masturbating every hour.

in all seriousness, men don't even understand that they "select for xyz". no one thinks in these terms except evolutionary psychologists and those similarly trained. so the answer is a question - why are you asking such a dumb question? are you sexually frustrated?

it's true, despite the feminists (to whom i am sometimes politically, sometimes intellectually, on the same page and sympathetic with), that women who like men like men who display, and rear to eccentricity and distinction, our sex's most distinctive attributes (which you have kindly listed), for the most part. some don't, and are eccentric freaks. as some men like BBWs and all kinds of kinky shit. obviously these are deviations, but i don't want to sound like a sexually frustrated retard so let us note them - ah, monsieur, i know you are not sexually frustrated, and enjoy many coupling and the women fall over you like bowling pins crushed by the force of your phallic intrusions.

not all women claim men oppress them, and not all men claim that they don't. let's be cautious here, because you are conflating women and feminists as if they are the same thing, which is absolutely ridiculous. feminism barely exists outside of the most civilised countries - ye may tell the most civilised by the treatment of woman blah blah blah. well, it's an old saw, but it's probably true.

anyway, the rambling, polemical tone of your post indicates you don't think women do now - in certain parts i'm sure - suffer in ANY FORM whatever, the oppression of our delightful sex. the so-called, sex oppression. and it disturbs you that they may think this of our sex, as if it were a slight against you? ah, monsieur, this is not a personal matter at all. how many times in your life has it happened that you didn't get that job, that girlfriend, that whatever, because of affirmative actions, the feminazis? i mean, cmon, really, you can't be that much of a loser, monsieur. i am rooting for your ascent into the dominance hierarchy
>>
>>9781261
I'm asking the question because men are fully aware of the qualities they select for. It's not simply a mystery known only to those who study evolutionary psychology, it's well-established that men (typically) enjoy indications of fertility, like youth, wide hips, large breasts, and overall health. Most women and men understand this. But there's a large, culturally-important movement that suggest that these preferences are just an expression of a dominant group's attempt to increase the value of qualities that predominate in that group; that these sexual preferences are completely disconnected from the inherent psychology human beings evolved over thousands of years.

This isn't just an idea perpetuated by a few coastal feminist, but has actually filtered down to the hoi polloi. You see the notion of fat-shaming being discussed on social media all the time. And it's typically women who deny that their selection process is affected by an inherent psychology, while then expressing that same inherent psychology through their choice of partner. And then they chastise men for expressing theirs.

>>9781210
dominance hierarchies are everywhere, not just men have them. women have them too. trick questions:

- who do most women dress for?
- who shames women to not be sluts?

the answer to both questions above is not patriarchy. it's other women and their dominance hierarchy. intersectionality will explain those with internalized misogyny or some bullshit like that, but the truth is that contemporary feminism just replaces those shaming techniques for different shaming techniques that keep all women in line.

to prove the previous point, see what happens when a women (or a minority) gets ideologically out of line from the party line. they immediately get torn to shreds, excommunicated and their "woke" feminist peers will send them rape threats.
>>
>>9781362
matriarchal societies are a meme, they never truly existed. even in societies where there's a feminine goddess at the top don't usually have women actually being at the top socially.
>>
>>9781386
Female goddesses were probably made up by men. It's just the childhood feeling that mommy will protect you turned into an object of worship. Once civilization developed and boys started being raised by men, rather than just single moms who stayed with their children while the biological fathers were off hunting game and raiding tribes, then a patrifocal society developed and people started worshiping male gods.
>>
>>9781368
ironically, in a way, contemporary feminism has created the most perfect and purified test of whether women are actually men's equals or not, whether they are capable of the same spiritual self-determination of men, almost like a carefully controlled social experiment: it's created a single, monolithic, hermetically"clean" narrative to which they can all conform, which absolves them of any responsibility and thereby stifles their agency (and pride)

western women are in an environment where no matter what they do, they have a "button" they can push (The patriarchy did it!) that will make them feel better and excuse them from undergoing the pain of self-cultivation. in that environment, like a pure white backdrop, any drop of agency paradoxically presenting itself - e.g., by some woman actually doing what a man would do and saying "What the fuck? This isn't life. This is perpetual childhood!" - will instantly stand out in its full vital colour. whereas those rare women, or the rare tendencies and behaviours toward agency in a rare few women, might have been lost in observational noise otherwise.

at least if a woman actually proves she's "just like a man" at this point, we'll see it like a fucking nuclear bomb on the horizon. a good example would be a woman writing a sui generis "feminist" critique of exactly this:
>the answer to both questions above is not patriarchy. it's other women and their dominance hierarchy. intersectionality will explain those with internalized misogyny or some bullshit like that, but the truth is that contemporary feminism just replaces those shaming techniques for different shaming techniques that keep all women in line.

reading this coming from a man is like "yep, this guy gets it," but imagine reading it from a woman. you'd be like HOLY FUCK.. THEY'RE CAPABLE OF SELF-AWARENESS?! THEY'RE SELF-CRITIQUING NOW?!!?! ARE WOMEN ABOUT TO BECOME.... HUMAN?

It's difficult for a woman to understand the emotional fulfillment involved in creating and raising a human being from scratch if she hasn't already done it. The problem is that feminists only want women to succeed in male-dominated avenues of success, which leads to a very lonely and stressful childless existence. And they want total sexual freedom for everyone, which will inevitably lead to unhappy men (if women aren't monogamous, the most attractive men end up hoarding all of the women), and unhappy women who are either childless or single moms.

First of all, historical knowledge is often interpreted through an activist and ideological lens. Read any contemporary academic history book, and notice how they all interpret behavior as being the result of particular social or economic conditions, rather than a synthesis of an inherent human nature being filtered through a particular culture. If you think that a person's behavior is only influenced by a his or her environment, then you're likely to succumb to utopian notions and attempt to engineer culture to achieve those notions. It's fucking dangerous.

And second, I never said that ancient societies were a sexual marketplace run by alphas; i'm saying that cultures that take human nature into consideration do a better job of sublimating some of our baser instincts because those societies are aware that those instincts are real. If you create a culture where temperance and monogamy are valued, then you'd have fewer single mothers. If you create a society where you claim that anyone can sleep their 20s away, then settle down and have a proper family, then the nuclear family is going to crumble. Which is what is happening.

I think Jordan Peterson is a rather poor reader of Jung, who I greatly admire. But this is one thing he articulates particularly well:

Men that find a career fulfilling a rare enough. And for them to actually land one that fulfills them requires a confluence of the stars. This trait and happenstance is astromically even rarer for women. Nothing is more fulfilling for the vast majority of people of both sexes than the traditional family life. The veneer of society that denies this timeless reality is thin and shoddy indeed.

First I got her away from mainstream liberalism with radical left socialism (a dangerous move, I know). This got her out of her self policing henpecking circle, effectively isolating her from their toxic influence.

Cognitive dissonance only goes so far before something has to give. Believe me, the process itself was very messy.

I'm fully aware of how the objective of marriage shifts depending on time and place. I'm reading an academic book on ancient Greece right now, which explains how Sparta was on the extreme end when it came to marriages being primarily about lineage and property rights. The problem is that you can't fall into the trap of interpreting history only through its exceptions. Aristocrats and licentious city-dwellers didn't make up the majority of families, and just because a particular historical state of affairs is interesting enough to write about doesn't make it representative of that era's norms.

>Many women would like to have children, but family is an unaffordable luxury under the present economic conditions.

This is fucking nonsense. My stay-at-home mother was perfectly able to raise 5 successful children on my father's middle class income, and he made less adjusted for inflation than many childless cosmopolitan women do. The real problem is that women can't live a financially-independent life and afford the daycare and maids that fulfill her domestic duties without being rich. If she replaced those expenses by being a stay-at-home mom, and she had a husband who was willing to provide for her financially, then there wouldn't be a problem. Our values are the problem, not our current economic conditions. Women have been having children under far worse economic circumstances.

I was talking to this black girl recently whose father is an african-american studies professor and for whatever reason the subject of "what religion would you be if you had to be one?" came up. She said she would be a jew.
Is that not the worst answer possible for a black person? the group that has historically oppressed and dominated the working class? she somehow made it up in her mind that jews and blacks were similar. that antisemitism has existed because of jewish cultural or religious characteristics and the not the fact that they exploited the working class during periods of economic depression. She thinks racism against blacks exists because the majority white culture must lash out against the minority groups because of cultural reasons, and that it has little to do with the fact that blacks so often behave like third-world citizens.

the "atomised nuclear family" is a postwar invention. a normal big extended family were most children are raised by their siblings is the traditional one.

it's perfectly reasonable to raise a normal family in the current economic climate if you had the support of your extended family, but that institution has been broken down. there are plenty of third world or mexican families able to come here and create big families with the shitty economic situation. we can't because we lost those traditions and institutions.

the solution is not breaking the family further down but remembering where we come from.
>>
>>9781944
>we can't because we lost those traditions and institutions.
This is so fucking true. Women aren't having kids because in a culture where religion and other socially-binding institutions no longer hold any sway, the only thing a woman has to give her life any sort of meaning is to climb the male ladder of status. And asking a woman to give up status by either quitting her job and taking up a life as a stay-at-home mom, or by using all of her money to raise children in a culture that doesn't respect her contribution, is insane.

You are nostalgic for a post war middle class that has been decimated by changing economic conditions.

But you ignore this and talk about lost vaguely postwar 'values' instead. That's why vulgar american conservatism is doomed to fail, if there is a future for the right it lies in catholic integralism or european nouvelle droite stuff, not in your hodgepodge of libertarian economics norman rockwell nostalgia and pop evopsych gleaned from PUA blogs.

also there was never such a thing as stay-at-home moms, people had a big network of support and you didn't have to raise your kids alone, women even from different families would come to your home and would give you their support, mothers would find themselves immersed into a living community where they would have a place. raising kids on a city flat by yourself where you can't barely ask anyone to keep an eye on them for 5 minutes is not a traditional family and not good for anyone involved, specially the kids.

also as women would get old they would become basically matriarchs and have a whole lot of influence and power if they played their cards right.

of course that is the ideal case, there's always been shitty families, but nowadays we are losing the ideal and no wonder people are not thrilled of taking part in the degenerated remains that are leftover from it.

I'm nostalgic for a cultural and economic condition that existed for me in the 90s, but somehow managed to disappear in the 2000s? The problem isn't the economic condition per se, it's the vacuous, nihilistic culture that creates a meaning vacuum at the center of our society that leaves people thinking that success can only be determined by material gain, number of novel experiences, and how well your sexual desires are met. Our exact current economic conditions wouldn't lead to fewer children if those other sources of meaning and community still held sway. Culture informs capitalism, not the other way around.

>childless cosmopolitan women are a tiny minority

This is demonstrably untrue. Cosmopolitan women are a minority, but spinsters are more common now than ever. Most Western countries are having children below replacement levels. Something like 40% of college-educated German women are childless, and Greece is close to having 1.3 children per couple. The population of childless women is insanely high in the West.

Everything you said in this post, which is absolutely true (the reason my mother was able to raise 5 children with my father's modest income was because we belonged to a church community), doesn't debunk the term 'stay-at-home mom'. The term doesn't imply that mothers live solitary lives.

Then why do immigrant populations, under even worse material conditions and imperialist oppression, have higher birthrates than natives in every white country even after several generations of assimilation?

Germany is subject to the same economic and social pressures as the rest of the liberal west. fun fact: many east germans are nostalgic for the wholesome communitarian spirit of the GDR, its free daycares and noncommodified sexuality, Stasi notwithstanding .

Japan is an outlier in many ways. Traditional post war values still reign and there was not a feminist movement in the sense the west had a feminist movement. Yet, young people are increasingly alienated, less likely to marry or even engage in casual sex and more likely to live with their parents.

birth rates have plummeted the world over.

A woman who's in that very unfortunate situation is a victim of the culture feminists perpetuate. She's a victim of a culture that tells her that premarital sex isn't just acceptable in moderation, but should be done as much as possible. She's a victim of the culture that tells men that, since God doesn't exist and religion is for slaves, that the measure of your manhood depends on how many women you can fuck, not by the family you've created. She's the victim of the culture that doesn't hold men or women accountable for their sexual behavior. The problem isn't the fact that she wants to fulfill her natural urge to have children, but that her culture doesn't want her to.

How well a man succeeds depends a lot on circumstances that he can't control. And women don't understand how worthless to society men who haven't succeeded are. As in no dates, no help, no sympathy.

But her sexual habits shouldnt be a problem if shes sufficiently safe when engaging in sex. The result of this is just the general low standard the culture has for blacks.

The fact that illegitimate children are becoming more common among white women proves that the problem isn't the black community itself. And no, our attitude to sex does matter. Our sexual culture is anti-monogamy in effect, if not necessarily rhetoric. Men in a secular culture are judged by how rich and sexually successful they are, and women are the victims of that male pride. Women also contribute to the problem by cheating more often than ever; by caring more about the short-term pleasure of "following one's heart" than long-term contentment.

The more partners a woman has before marriage the higher the likelihood that she'll get divorced. Once a woman has crossed the Rubicon of promiscuity, it's very hard for her to have a life where her happiness isn't dependent on her sex life.

when you use every relationship / sexual partner just as a stepping stone to the next big thing that will come next you form a mental structure that can never be satisfied in a monogamous relationship and you will never be ready to form a family. you never learn to work through problems with your partner and to work as a team because on the back of your mind you are always aware that this is temporary and you can jump out at any time.

it applies to men in the sense that men in this atmosphere can't find success in forming a family and forming a family only seems to open up a can of worms that may ruin everything you worked for, instead of opening up new paths of success and growth towards the future.

>>9782390

I'm not sure culture should be the only factor responsible for that gap (which is a whole order of magnitude so it's quite something). I would also put automation into that equation. Some of our duties and responsibilities DID go extinct, and no individual [inside the most modern and developed societies so far] is held accountable for things he or she would be even 50 years ago. "City people", for lack of a better word, are roaming around and they never had to worry about the most basic things like heating, bathing, farming, and even city things in themselves, like solving technical house problems are going out of the equation.

We are being handed much more to us than during any other time before, and I believe social justice is a mere environmental consequence of this. And some of it is not even being handed out by other people: we are just being granted laziness by our own technology. Grammar is one quintessential example, does anybody still write without automatic spell checking?

So it's not only culture of narcissism lowering notions of accountability, but also technology fueling complete absence of anything to be accountable for to begin with. Whatever duty we still have, it is heavily supported and noted by machines reminding us of it all the time; we do not have to take these things into mind ourselves, we can worry about abstract and naive ideas of "freedom", about how someone else is having it better than us, and so on and so on.

I'm a cultural conservative and an economic centrist.

The responses to this quote really prove something that Valerie Solanas said decades ago:

>The male is a biological accident: the y gene is an incomplete x gene, that is, has an incomplete set of chromosomes. In other words, the male is an incomplete female, a walking abortion.... To be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness is a deficiency disease and males are emotional cripples.

Solanas was truly ahead of her time. It isn't patriarchy that cripples men emotionally; it's just what men are. The very core of maleness is to be a lesser version of a woman.

Success is determined either genetically (born attractive) or through some sort of status achievement (this depends on your age, but for someone in their mid-20s it means a good education and good career prospects). And yes, I am speaking from personal experience. Even though I have no problem speaking to women and most of my friends are women, being born too poor to receive a good education and too unattractive to be able to rely on looks means that I realistically face the prospect of dying alone. And this is pretty common for men my age, just look at r9k. I don't think women understand how relationships work for men in the modern world.

Freedom and addiction go hand-in-hand. Guilt doesn't cause one to have a chemical dependence on cocaine.

Jesus, are women these days really this naive? If you think any ideology, especially one espousing ideas of victimhood, should be the "law of the land," you're so blind that I'm afraid nothing could possibly enlighten you.

I'm not an attractive woman; I see how actual good looking women get treated in comparison to myself, it pains me. And no, I'm not obese, I just have a mannish face and a weird body. You could probably tell me that you'd go out with me, but I know you wouldn't. I'm sorry we both weren't born beautiful.

Switzerland didn't grant women full political rights until 1990, and Switzerland is not what you would call a poor country.

The Middle East isn't poor because of their lack of respect for gender equality, lmao. It's because Islam specifically forbids the charging of interest, which is pretty much essential to a functional economy. Muslims are, in a very literal sense, stuck in the Middle Ages. Yeah, I know they now have a bit of a workaround system but they've been at a self imposed disadvantage for centuries. They also have a very small middle class and host of other problems, but misogyny is not one of them.

we have studies were well socialized rats don't get easily addicted to cocaine. rats that are isolated or badly socialized get addicted much easier. it's not just about freedom.

Ive always felt bad for women in that sense, but men are equally subject to standards, only maybe not as much in the beauty standard as in others. Its something natural and unavoidable

Really? The reduction of a potential workplace by 50% is not a major cause? Same goes for Africa. One of the solid ways to help a society get out of poverty is 2 empower the women in the society, and give them reprodoctive autonomy (im not saying abortion has to be one of them but the rest)

That is waaay to reductive bro. How come there is so much drug addiction among the poor classes in america? Clearly people can go to drugs for all kinds of reasons. And yes guilt and depression can lead to any drug abuse.

The author herself said "I killed feminism" after writing the novel. It's clearly a book about female manipulation, not just about the evils of an individual woman. There are other instances of the author pointing out female privilege throughout the novel.

Europe's relative wealth was even higher during the 17th-20th centuries, at a time when women weren't expected to work. The wealth of Western societies can't be reduced to gender equality.

Why are you posting pictures of your average Americans?
What is your point?

>>9786009
my point is that the average woman has been so mindfucked by a popular culture which has been hijacked by feminism (or, more broadly, Marxism) that the women are not all right. far from it.

>>9786043
The problem isn't marxism, it's the hedonistic obsession with individual freedom over socially-imposed duties that's been part of Western thinking for hundreds of years.

Now, a bit unrelated to all this talk.

One of my problems with the way Feminism speaks is that it implies there is something intrinsically good and special about whatever group it's talking about, whether it be gays or Muslims or blacks.

On a side note, for Muslims specially, I feel it has the effect of taking a complex and centuries old religion into little more than trendy identity.
>>
>>9784840
I was following the discussion from this post, which I assume was you >>9781650

So you think we just need a "better" ideology after the profound failure that it has resulted in? We need to rethink ideology altogether so that our nomos can correspond to the problems inherent in being and consciousness. Feminism is just as terrible as right-wing conservatism--they're both concerned with factional victory, and the former in particular wants to level everything down so that all is equal. Democratic pathos is a lie, men and women are inherently unequal, and traditional societies heed this difference by allotting roles that allow both groups to flourish into the completeness of their being. We obviously can't go back to primitive pre-industrial life, but we could certainly learn a thing or two from them.

I find a healthy amount of feminsim in a young woman as very attractive actually. That particular moral earnestness I think is at the very least admirable or beautful to witness, even if i dont agree with it. I just dont understand that arm pit hair and the blue hair and the screaming.

>>9786439
No I didn't I said:

Where did I this is true because of a correlation? in fact I didnt explain my argument (im too lazy)
>>
>>9786447
I said: "as a general rule". You missed that part, kitty cat. Thats not the same as saying:

"societies do better when they have a post-feminist workforce. "

That would be closer to a correlation-casuation fallacy. But would still be stronger because if all societies did better after an emancipated female population, that would a be a strong correlation and a stronger argument for a cause.

You're a huge fag. A beautiful mind would be one that rebels against prevailing moral trends, not succumb to them. A woman who rejects both feminism and Christian traditionalism, and instead is self-aware enough to live by a series of well-defined moral virtues that promote stability and happiness would be a great woman.

It could just as easily be explain by claiming that a neoliberal society that promotes profit over everything else, and therefore exploits women as workers for profit, will be richer because they value material wealth over everything else. It's not the feminism that causes the wealth, it's the ideology that promotes wealth that causes the feminism.
