A common behavior among blue-pilled cucks that any self respecting man must purge from his psyche is the need to gain the approval of women. But, why do men even feel the need to gain approval from women in the first place? Was it always this way? I would say that no. Throughout most of human history, gender roles were distinct, and men sought the approval of men, then, at an age deemed appropriate in their culture, they sought the companionship of a woman. Even in the early 1900's, boys spent most of their time with men. They did chores with their father, they attended boys schools, and even their teachers were predominantly male. However, as labor changed from in the home to in the factory as a result of industrialization and urbanization, men were pulled out of the home, and boys now worked alongside their mothers. When not at home, they were at school, where male teachers became less and less common. Today, (speaking from personal experience) young boys probably spend 80% of their time with women. Dad works (or they're in a single parent home), time at home is spent with mom, and time at school is spent either with raging feminist female teachers or effeminate male teachers (I struggle to think of any teacher I've had that hadn't bought in 100% to the female imperative). What does this have to do with approval? All kids want is attention, someone to say "good job." Now, the only people around enough to tell these kids "good job" are women-- young boys live to please women, so it's no wonder that when they start seeking the companionship of a woman they do the same, putting these girls on a pedestal, treating them like princesses, being careful never to do or say anything that might offend them, and we all know how that works out. I dunno what the solution to this is, or even if there is a solution. I don't think homeschooling is the answer, and knowing how liberal/progressive all universities are, I don't think we'll be seeing many alpha male professors that could be teaching our kids, and so public schools are just gonna keep getting worse and serving the feminine imperative. So, if you have a male kid, just make sure you do manly things with him on the weekends or something, and red pill him early.
