[21F] "I don't want sex right away, I'm not into the hookup scene anymore."

I will have to disagree with you on this. The "desperate beta cucked mindset" is the byproduct of modern, ruined women, not the cause. The unfettered modern woman has chosen to ruin herself, the cucks are only the response to that from spineless, unlaid men. On YT, Coach Red Pill has a very interesting take on this with which I agree. [I find a fair amount of his content to be off-base and shortsighted, but this point of his hits the mark.]

Basically, back when "women were still women", a man that could not obtain sex/marriage knew what he had to continue to do in order to achieve that goal, if at all. Continue to build himself, his career, and his status. Now that the modern woman has chosen to ruin herself with the CC, attempted masculinity, and all the trappings of modern whoredom, those unlaid masses of lower-tier men have chosen to respond, not with determined self-improvement, but with trying to placate the pseudo-masculine whore with what he thinks that she wants. All in an attempt to get laid/marriage. A vast swath of modern 'men' have changed their mating strategy in a futile attempt to address the modern 'woman' he confronts.

100 years ago, a cuck was simply an outlier; not even close to being a sizable minority among males. Is it any coincidence that after roughly 30-40 years of hardcore feminism we now see that a staggered parallel of these cucks has formed up trying to appease the 'modern woman' over the past couple of decades, indeed becoming a sizable minority of the male population? Feminism demanded that men be able to show a feminine side as well. Most of us men just laughed and continued on with life, but a sizable minority have chosen to act more feminine because (according to the feminists) that is the kind of man they are looking for. Cause and effect, IMO.
