CMV: BetaBucks is framed too beautifully. The reality is that when a woman settles in looks for a less physically developed man, she infatilizes the man, treats him as a child without a sex drive and also puts impossible labor demands on him, like a toxic mother-son relationship.

I have browsed lots of material about so called BetaBucks relationships but I don't think most people describe it accurately and painfully enough to be honest.

In my opinion, BetaBucks is often framed as a business contract, meaning that both parties get a beneficial deal in a Man-Woman relationship. That bit is important. However, in reality when a woman settles for a less physically developed man, she thinks she is like a galaxy better than him and that's when the problems start.

The 1st problem- She will think this man doesn't have a sex drive like other men his age because he is physically inferior , leading to an extremely cold calculating approach to sex (why have sex if not for reproduction? it's messy and dangerous) Also linked to this is toxic man up messages (why do you need affection? you are the provider, just tough it up!)

The 2nd problem- She will have impossible labor demands for this man. This is because she will have a thought process that is 'You should be infinitely grateful that I chose you' and the idea is that the man should have no needs and hold up an impossible performance to satisfy that woman.

The 3rd problem- Taking into account the above we cannot really say that a BetaBucks relationship is a Man-Woman relationship, that is if you define such a relationship by its psychological characteristics in a healthy state. The woman treats the man like an child to be trained (refer to hit titles in Women's Magazines) and therefore it is a toxic Adult Child to Narcissistic Mother relationship instead!

Counterargument- There are men who have those less physically developed looks and don't experience these problems, and they aren't used for money either. This point is true actually. It is derived through men performing a social role of immense power and blending into the role so completely it has an hypnotizing effect on the woman. But it isn't a practical solution for most men.

So this is the argument. That BetaBucks is framed too beautifully and neatly and ignores that actual psychological dynamics that go on in such a relationship that makes it absolutely horrendous.
