Often on this forum you see guys saying that if it only weren't for cucks putting up with women's bad behavior, women would change overnight. Leaving aside for a moment the degree that this is true/untrue, there is a corollary statement that you hear from some (like TFM) that if only guys realized their true worth, they would never put up with horrible shit from women.

I'm specifically referring to guys who marry up hoes - either single mothers, or women pregnant by Tyrone, or the former friend-zone who "suddenly" wants to settle down. I mean, why on earth would a guy spend 10 years drooling over a girl who curbs him and fucks Chad till she's all explosion in a roast-beef sandwich, then take her when she's finally done having fun and wants the nice engineer's resources?

What kind of guy has such a low self-assessment of his value?

But I've always been of the opinion that people are deeply, deeply aware of themselves. This includes their looks, their Sexual Marketplace Value, their intelligence. One of the first questions I ask someone in a social setting is, "are you smart?" because I've found that it's one of the only questions that people reliably answer in an honest fashion.

So I think it's not that they're under-valuing their worth. When a beta takes a hoe, I think he's deeply aware of what he's doing, and doing it because he recognizes that her SMV has finally dropped down to his level. Of course, it's true that overall, women's SMV is currently skewed in our society. I recently heard that the Gini coefficient (look it up) for Tinder is greater than the worst example in the world of economic inequality. So yeah, maybe if men as a whole start to control women, we'll fix some of this disparity. But as it stands today, the fact is that it makes sense why these cucks act as they do. And it's from a true recognition of their low SMV rather than a misgauging of their worth.

At any rate, just food for thought - feel free to agree or disagree. I'm always willing to hear a rational position.

Mostly, go your own way folks.
