| 2 | How Higher Education “Studies” MenSo, you're saying the article is an example of scientism? Or, the Stony Brook men's studies center is an example of scientist? Or we shouldn't study these things? | /r/TheRedPill | 30/08/17 10:36 PM |
| 1 | Looking for the shrinks hereYeah, this is actually a really good point. As a therapist is hard because it can be pretty hard trying to work with the other 80% of guys who are struggling so hard and just may not be capable of being the men they want to be. You gotta work on expectation management with those guys but it's a delicate line | /r/TheRedPill | 30/08/17 06:15 AM |

| 1 | Looking for the shrinks hereYeah, AVFM depresses me more than anything. Farrell is great; he's definitely from a different era of therapy though. I've watched Brainwashed, it's so great! In your final point, I've definitely seen a lot of men benefit from working with a woman on some hard emotional stuff when I knew they weren't going to actually let their guard down enough with me or another male therapist. Glad you had a good experience. | /r/TheRedPill | 30/08/17 06:11 AM |

| 1 | Looking for the shrinks hereYeah, no, not so much. I was the only man in my cohort of 6, no men in the year ahead of me and one in the year below me. The old professors were all men and old and just interested in writing successful grants, keeping their grad students making them look productive, and getting to that retirement check. All the new professors were women and had no shortage of axes to grind.

| 1 | Looking for the shrinks hereI couldn't agree more with the easy dopamine loop. I'd only add that this holds true for a lot of people in therapy. "Doc, I'm depressed, I eat pizza twice a day, sleep 5 hours a night, watch porn 6-12 times a week, and haven't exercised in 3 years. What do you think is causing my depression?" Right... Regarding the help for this, I would only add, from my clinical experiences, my bigger challenge with men are the men who are being actually abused by the woman/women in their lives but they reall… | /r/TheRedPill | 30/08/17 05:51 AM |
| 1 | Looking for the shrinks hereTrue story, and I totally agree about AVFM. Whenever I peruse anything there I end up coming out of it feeling a little worse for the experience. I'm glad you had a good therapy experience, regardless of the sex of the therapist. It's kind of interesting, that's no research to suggest that the sex of the therapist relative to the patient matters (in adults; it's not necessarily true for adolescents for some reason).

| 1 | 40 millions of Americans are in sexless marriages. That's about a third.Oh, I'm not being too facetious, for real. Being married, that's definitely the ideal outcome and I really do love hearing how some men make it work. That's good stuff. | /r/TheRedPill | 29/08/17 05:20 PM |
| 2 | Looking for the shrinks hereThanks for sharing. It seems the work your therapist did was spot on for you. It's always hard to avoid getting caught up in projecting your own values in therapy. I hear so many horror stories of therapists' inappropriate values projection from so many of the guys I've worked with. I had one guy, going through a divorce, have his marital therapist prior to his divorce tell him that he had to help his wife feel more secure in the relationship by checking in with her several times a day and telli… | /r/TheRedPill | 29/08/17 06:10 AM |

| 10 | 40 millions of Americans are in sexless marriages. That's about a third.Thanks for the encouraging words! Meh, I'm in a pretty good place with it most of the time. I've done plenty of dread game shenanigans with mixed results in the past. Now, I realize that you can only really commit to the work of the dread game if you are motivated to correct the relationship. I'm not, so I play the hunting and fishing with my friends dread game.

| 1 | The MRM is a gate to White Supremacy.Honestly, all they seem to do is make semi-coherent quasi-arguments all focused on protecting the moral integrity of the left. This is an interesting point;I hadn't realized they were defending the Left's moral high-ground but they totally were. Well, they really need to review some argumentation tactics. Someone needs to do a primer on, maybe, the "Disputed question" method of Aquinas or something for them.

Generally, Cantwell doesn't help himself with avoiding this characterization. And, yes, the same absolutely goes for the left. When grandpa comrade Chomsky is saying they're fucking it up then they should probably stop and listen.

| 1 | The MRM is a gate to White Supremacy.It's hard for me to even parse what his ideology is, other than ethnostatism, which mostly makes me roll my eyes, and objecting to "white-bashing" (with which I broadly agree). Yeah, ethnostatism is doubly repugnant to me. I personally tend to hold a statism-is-a-cult kind of liberal libertarian mindset. It creates plenty of cognitive dissonance but that's probably good, all-in-all.

| 4 | The MRM is a gate to White Supremacy.Yeah, it's crazy that a psychologist with specific assessment training and experience would hold similar impressions of the scientific literature as another psychologist. It's probably a conspiracy. Maybe I'm a JBP sock puppet.

His ideas about reforming the legal system are compelling but so revolutionary it's hard to imagine what the downstream effects might be. ... but when the coercive transfer of resources from men to women (via taxes and government spending) dries up because men aren't producing anything, women aren't going to be happy (or capable of) holding the entire thing up.

I got in a fight awhile back on Twitter about a study of stroke risk between the sexes that the lay press was writing about claiming that women need to take better care of their health because their stroke risk hasn't gone done to the same statistically significant degree that it has in men.

I'm going out on an empirical limb here but, as I see it, individuals are vulnerable to myriad cognitive biases and these errors in thinking are multiplied within identitarian groups.

But, if you default to parents' rights to approve medical procedures for their children for whatever reason they want (which, I can almost get behind), then you necessarily are opening the door to, at least, expanded female genital cutting in at least some of its forms and maybe even parents of trans kids going even further than giving their kids hormone treatm… | /r/TheRedPill | 17/08/17 07:51 AM |

| 8 | Does Female Genital Mutilation Have Health Benefits? The Problem with Medicalizing Morality - Brian Earp again owns circumcision debate.The article has a decent run down on it. IMO, the normal side effects aren't a big deal to me personally (then again, I've no idea what having an uncut dick is like), until I think about the fact that the discolored ring around my dick is scar tissue from getting a piece of it cut off without anesthesia. See below for the effects: "To begin with, it—by definition—removes most or all of the foreskin, which is about 50 square centimeters of elastic tissue in the adult organ and the most sensitive … | /r/TheRedPill | 17/08/17 05:00 AM |

There's been several decent published studies to this effect. See below: "Alarmingly, one place we might start operating is the pediatric vulva. Compared to the penis, the external female genitalia provide if anything “an even more hospitable environment to bacteria, yeasts, viruses, and so forth, such that removing moist folds of tissue (with a sterile surgical instrument) might very well reduce the risk of associated problems.” In countries where female circumcision is relatively commo… | /r/TheRedPill | 17/08/17 12:41 AM |

So, I'm really trying to conceptualize how to approach the important issues discussed on TRP and related non-PUA spheres of thinking. I'm not slamming the PUA stuff, it's just not my bag. Anyway, I see a lot of compelling ideas on here as well as some strong writing.

| 0 | A new force in MGTOWGirls are increasingly outperforming boys in the classroom. As a result, with the exception of STEM fields, women are dominating academia. Which means women are setting the cultural narrative. So, good for you guys in standing up for men and boys issues; but, if you want to really stir things up, study and then study some more. Go into the social sciences, law, journalism, the humanities. I know this flies in the face of your economic interests because you won't make as much in those fields as y… | /r/MGTOW | 14/08/17 05:59 PM |

It's a bitter, painful kind of fucking medicine. It's too damn hard to swallow sometimes. But I know, when it's even harder than usual, those are the times that I simply must just take my medicine.

You correctly poke a hole in what was my accidental extreme example. I think the argument made by the academic historians who wrote the linked article still stands though.

The answer to your question is yes. Put another way, women in more 'equal' societies are less like to pursue STEM degrees.

| 1 | Study of sex differences in mathematics anxiety in more gender equal countries; wider differences & moms show more valuation of their son's (rather than daughter's) math skillsNot necessarily. It's about math anxiety. Interesting thing is that in developed countries with more gender equality, everybody has less math anxiety but the gap between women and men in math anxiety is even larger than the gap in more unequal countries. So, there's a consistent finding that girls are scared of math and if life gets easier for everybody (like in more developed and gender equal countries) men relax considerably more than women, who just stay scared of math. I wonder why they don'… | /r/MGTOW | 10/08/17 09:02 AM |
| 1 | Study of sex differences in mathematics anxiety in more gender equal countries; wider differences & moms show more valuation of their son's (rather than daughter's) math skillsSo: there's a gender gap in STEM. Leading theory: women have increased mathematics anxiety in more gender equal countries because they have more contact with men in these countries and this increased contact (and less power distance - hooray postmodernism) with men increases mathematics anxiety in women. Idea: look at Nordic countries where gender gaps are generally much smaller in most domains. Finding: there is overall reduced mathematics anxiety for both sexes (doh), there is actually a large… | /r/MGTOW | 10/08/17 08:11 AM |

There is less data provided in the text on men and that's because the data from which these aggregates are pulled are statistically so noisy (unreliable) that the aggregates can't be trusted to be accurate estimates. As a result they talk about women experiencing rape prior to age 18 (8.5 million) and they place that number right next to the number for men experiencing 'forced to penetrate' prior to age 18 (1.5 million), as if they are measures of equivalent constructs when they are … | /r/MGTOW | 09/08/17 02:40 AM |
