Mike Cernovich writes one of his most important posts ever. You simply must read it if you want to have a fulfilling and successful life:
If you are a man who is part of the 90 percent, work to get yourself in the 10 percent. And then, and only then, should you look to find a woman who is in the one percent.
It's not impossible. There are 35 million women who are not miserable out there. Find one, and don't settle for less.
And if you are one of those 35 million, stop trying to fix the miserable men. Find a man from the 10 percent, and instead of trying to fix him, follow his lead.
I learned how to tell if a man was dead by looking in his eyes. When living in Thailand and Vietnam, you learn how to spot the look.This is the key statement: 90% of men are miserable. 99% of women are miserable.
The look is what an old man gives when a short-haired harpy leads him down the streets of Vietnam. The man glances around to see smiling, feminine women everywhere. He may even see an older man with one of those smiling women.
“What’s taking you so long,” he hears from her shrill voice.
Slowly a realization hits. A man has wasted his life serving an ungrateful nag. He could have had so much more. His soul leaves him.
Men over 40 were lied to. The rest of us have no excuse. Before the Internet, men didn’t know any better. They did what worked for their parents generation – meet a nice girl who will become a great wife and mom, get a job, work hard.
Men borrowed money for college, married well before they hit their prime, went deep into debt to buy a home to please the Mrs., and allowed an entitled woman to dominate his life. If he was lucky, she wouldn’t divorce him and kidnap his children. What he did was never good enough.
Those of you under 30 do not understand what a gift the Internet is.
Before the web young men had no idea what society had planned for them.
Young men had no idea that they’d spend most of the rest of their lives as dead men.
