The Rational Male: Case Study — Low Expectations

Great post, Rollo. One thing, though; the part about household chores and sex. For years women have been saying that men should do more housework in order to get more sex, but the truth is that men who do more housework get less sex. As you said in your article, when men specifically do male-oriented household tasks they get more sex. But when they take on traditional female chores, they get less sex. The kicker is that in the marriages where men are having less sex but doing more housework, wives report higher levels of marital satisfaction. That leads us to two possible conclusions:

Women care more about being looked after than having sex; or
Women say one thing, but then will change their minds at the drop of a hat.

Of course, both have elements of truth. Ironically, many women divorce because they are unsatisfied with their married sex life.

Worth repeating:

Once again, The Cardinal Rule of Sexual Strategies:

For one sex’s sexual strategy to become realized, the other sex’s strategy must be compromised or abandoned entirely.

And again, the Roissy / Heartist Prime Directive of Feminism:

The goal of feminism is to remove all constraints on female sexuality while maximally restricting male sexuality

Great stuff. The point about adolescent social skill sets explains a whole lot about why a lot of college sweethearts blow up in the subsequent years after. That stunted development leads to absurdities like this and other 'blindsiding' relationship enders.

There's probably a ton of people in everyone's life (past a certain age) who fit this mold. They nailed down a partner early, could be successful at work or whatever, but when you see the interpersonal play between the couple, all you can think of is 'this is some teenage shit'.

Now had Spreadsheet properly set a relationship expectation to begin with that frequent and satisfying sex was going to be a component or the relationship is terminated (along with of course maintaining his attractiveness) he'd likely have avoided this situation.

If you don't properly set expectations, then don't be surprised when they are not met.

Rollo, you're stating that the guy was negotiating desire by trying to "reason" with her (i.e. presenting proof to her what a poor wife she is) - which would indeed have been an abysmal move on his part, if only because all it would do would be alienating his wife even further.

But what do you think of the assumption that he wasn't actually trying to pressure her to have sex, but simply had already moved on and only wanted the satisfaction of having lashed out because he didn't care anymore about burning bridges? (because that's one of the positions that has been discussed in this reddit)

Modern feminism, which has become a cult demanding special treatment and demonizing masculine virtues.

Sorry but I was expecting more. There's no analysis, you're just repeating observations combined with some knowledge and offer no solution but to never get in the problem in the first place(like someone asking you what to do if they're drowning in the ocean and you say the solution is not going to the ocean...). Solid introduction though and really good presentation o th issue.
