While I agree with the message somewhat, this does not look and feel like it was written by someone who is "approaching 70".

I follow a couple of 6x year old guys in the manosphere, in The Red Pill and out, and while they get modern ideas and tech, and are literate, they do not write in a way that is anything close to this style.

I am calling a fake old man post, although I am not disagreeing with the message.

People lived well on $2.50 per hour. Everything was cheap.

As men we derive our societal value from being able to provide.

When providing is easy, because money is easy, because everything is cheap, it drastically devalues our contribution, to the point that women feel that they can actually do it all by themselves: "What do I need that idiot for?"

The generation before the OP had known the Great Recession, and quite a few of them, even starvation. Women cannot bring themselves to being frivolous or hedonistic when they've got nothing to eat, and no roofs over their heads. That is why these WWII women were reasonable and content.

Still, the current, hedonistic bullshit had obviously started before the 1970ies already. Things had been too good for too long already. No challenge. The absence of external drama seems to push women to create their own.

The current lifestyle of absurdity will continue, until avoiding starvation has become a massive problem again. What we need, is a situation that forces the matter, and tells people: Fight and die, or else, just die.

For the culture to change, and the survivors to get their act together, millions of frivolous, single women and their offspring will have to unceremoniously starve to death. Do not succumb to the temptation of helping them or giving them charity. That would only amount to sabotaging the necessary clean-up operation. If too many people of the wrong kind survive, things cannot possibly get better. It will rather mean that a brand new wave of additional calamities will be needed to finally finish the job. Seriously, now we need the harvests to wholesale fail.

So he would have been 30 something in the 80s. Would have been in the sweet spot for every workspace joining the computer age. From ordering and inventory systems to getting home Internet 20 yeas ago. Anyone who's ever had to write BS office and incident reports can write. Not sure why the skepticism.

I wrote this in that thread, I’ll post it again here:

I’m far from your age, but I’d say I have the experience of someone on your level.

I’ve slept with a lot of women in my life, dated consistently for the last 15 years. Hearing stories from my buddies and my own experiences, it’s just not really worth it. There’s just so must risk when it comes to a woman who brings less to the table than you. Short if marrying rich, a man stands to gain little and risks losing a lot.

I have a very stable career, make great money, am homeowner and have my life in tip-top order. Thanks to my experiences, it’s very easy to see the women wanting a free lunch from miles away.

Now, are all women like this? No. But a lot are. A lot. The women who aren’t like this are literally the ones who don’t need a man in life. These are doctors, lawyers, business owners who have their own assets and don’t need no mans.

Having said that, assuming you were able to land one of three women; I would still advise against marriage. If you live in a state that doesn’t recognize common law marriage (yes, they exist) I’d highly recommend a serious, committed relationship. Some of the best joys in my life have been with women. Women bring some of the best joys in life, but can also bring some of the worst.

Be careful, boys.

I'm still banned from MGTOW.

Kind of annoying to be honest.

I'm a little skeptical here.

In the 1970's I worked in a jobs program for kids that, IIRC, paid me $1.50 an hour. I sure wasn't living high on the hog.

Plus $2.50 an hour x 40 hours is 100 bucks a week or just over 5k a year. That didn't get you very far even back in the 70's.

Lol I find it hard to believe 70 year olds using reddit and knowing all the sub vocabulary and being frequent posters and giving advice to the young guys . It’s a troll post to push forward the message . Mtgtow sub out of all similar subs is the worse one tbh . Too much hate and bitterness on that sub I personally had to leave recently
