So men and women want people to love them, like them, admire them, respect them. This is natural and ok. As long as it is checked and not out of control (for example narcissism, or people constantly worrying about validation and attention; you can derive admiration/likability amongst peers or whatever, this is natural to seek out and enjoy and give & take)

However, women are admired just for being women. Somewhere in the world there is a (simp) man that will love a woman just for her being a woman and possible companion (no matter how she looks or even acts). Men derive admiration from their achievements, societal value (career, work, business, talents/skills, etc), or fame, money, status, and whatnot. Men are not loved or admired just by “being pretty” (not saying only pretty women are loved/admired as even a average or below average woman is pretty to some guy) nor are they admired/loved simply being a man like women are. They are not seen as nurturing/companions, the way women are. An average man who has an average or low paying job, not outstandingly attractive, average height, is virtually invisible to most of society and especially women. An average women with an average job is still admired and desired, by manyyy men, top tier men who just want to fuck, or same level men who are looking for a companion, or below average men looking to ‘score big’ -.-

We now have women having both inherent and natural value/admiration simply for being a woman AND for having societal value/societal admiration by having good careers and money (which they deem attractive but most men really don’t care too much about that). Feminism has come in and quite drastically ruined the dynamics that built modern society (I’m not exactly talking about gender roles, as I’m split on that, I do think women SHOULD have equal opportunities and options to build careers, but I also know someone has to carry a baby to term for 9 months and nurse him/her after that). But yeah, now men are not only feeling less valuable, but also being replaced by automation and AI. With men not being able to derive value/admiration and finding their place in society, I see a not-so-bright future. We already see boys failing out of school, dropping out of college or avoiding it altogether, we see suicide increasing across the board for all age groups of men. A shitstorm is approaching or nearby, we may get lucky and miss it. But, I’m not sure

For one thing, mgtow is extremely helpful. Mgtow has awaken many men to not simply be pawns in this game, or servants, and even if the traditional roles returned, I think mgtow men do not want to return to the plantation. Amen.

(Also, side note - listening to the JRE with Neil Brennan podcast around 1:24:00ish for at least 10-20 minutes which is kinda what inspired this post, and they also mention how women control sex and manipulate men. So not only do women have natural admiration, they now have societal/career admiration, and they also control the sex dynamics and relationship dynamics between men and women. (They are the gatekeepers and do determine who procreates and who does not). What in the actual fuck is the point? Lol)
