No. Just stop.

Here's a good video for ya that shows that toothless dog JP for what he really is - a cope cowardly tradcon, begging women to be nice, while never having courage to call them out.

He's absolutely anti-MRA, so don't put any hopes in him.

It seem to me the most vapid and generic advice one could give.

And hypocritical too.

Take rule 6. ""Set your house in perfect order before you criticize the world." Peterson says while under a crippling Benzo addiction. It didn't stop him, and it shouldn't stop you.

The book also critiques the ambiguity of ideology, yet present it's own peusdo-christian ideology as the one truth, without a hint of irony.

I'm glad you got something from it, there is good advice in there, but it's far from the most insightful book I've read. Personally I found "Man's Search for Meaning - Viktor E. Frankl" more insightful.

I've heard his newer book, "12 more rules" is more honest in it's approach. So maybe read that too.

Read Nathaniel Brandon and Robert Bly. The prose is better and you get all Peterson's good ideas.
