Why the fuck is he worried about men being cynical about women or someone being discouraged from commitment?

Honest question.

Why not actually acknowledge their feelings and experiences if they're so bitter it's destructive?

[–]Doctor_Illusion -1 points0 points1 point 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

What I'm worried about is young men reading the words of these bitter, sexless, angry men and taking them to heart. I'm not telling anyone not to be cynical about women, but we do have impressionable young minds stumbling onto the 'sphere every day and if all they hear is negative things about relationships and women in general, they may live a less happy life than they could have by avoiding women. Just my .02.

And avoid feminists. Bitches

They really are their own worst enemy. Surrounded by beta white knight male feminists nodding their head at whatever male-bashing statement you just made in the hopes for pity-sex while the true alphas are ignoring you like the plague. Enjoy your cats!

Agree with the article but I understand the disdain a lot of guys have is from being burnt by women after trusting them in a way that's sort of naive and innocent, to assume they will love you unconditionally, because they won't, that love is very conditional. Like this post says you always have to keep your game up to keep it working, that's how conditional it is.

I like the article, and hope that more people who frequent this subreddit learn something from it.

[–]Doctor_Illusion -1 points0 points1 point 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Many thanks, sir.

This same logic justifies fat girls. Which is why I don't support it.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

you would never enter a relationship with a fat girl in the first place. Being fat is a byproduct of a lazy personality.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

If the girl was not fat at the start of relationship and then got fat. Wasn't this exactly what you were saying about game, or did I misunderstand? Basically the guy has game at the start of the relationship and then transforms into a boring guy with no game.

[–]Doctor_Illusion 0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

It's not so much a matter of proving yourself constantly as it is keeping attraction going. You don't have to focus on it constantly, but as I said you also don't let yourself go.

I look at it like this. Would you want your girl to never dress up and put on make-up? Never wear sexy lingerie and seduce you? Things like that keep up the attraction level. Letting her see you doing masculine things like working on a car with your shirt off is the same thing. When I'm doing that sort of thing, it gets my girl ridiculously turned on.

She keeps it going by working on the physical, you as the man have to match that but also essentially can show no weakness, even in tough times, you have to keep handling shit. Yourself, her, any shared shit (bills) it's all on you. Welcome to being a man. Let her have too much power and responsibility in the relationship and she'll be fucking her boss soon enough or "feel it's not working out." even the girl you think's a special snowflake. Yeah.
