I’m feeling a bit misanthropic today. Shovelling through reams of idiocy on both sides of the feminist and MRA (men’s rights activist) issue is leaving me a bit mentally fatigued. I know, I know…It’s my own fault. I’m bored since Hannibal is sick, and the enzymes are wearing off, so I thought I’d go back and post a bit here and there…drop some knowledge or at least some perspective before I am back in bliss.
Well, now I remember why I started posting less in the first place. It’s draining. Lots of problems and lots of complaints, and only a scarce few doing or saying anything remotely constructive or balanced. Both sides wanting an entire gender to pay for crimes, some real, and some imagined, they feel have been committed against them. The war between the sexes rages on between groups of overly entitled White people. Meanwhile, people who can still manage to breed if nothing else, are doing just that.
Then on the male side are HBD’ers who haven’t gotten up to date on genetics in the past 15 years. On the female side are blank slaters who think they can override biology to make exceptions the norm, through social programming.
Nobody seems to like nature. That’s a shame since understanding nature is crucial in preserving civilization because civilization is against man’s baser nature. It requires use of our less primal skills to succeed.
I’m kind of talked out on these things. If someone can’t see why what’s good for one gender is good for the other, and what’s bad for one is bad for the other, I don’t know what to tell them. Maybe western men and women are so alienated from each other already that there really is no bridging the gap except in subcultures.
So really, maybe that’s where I should focus my attention. I should retreat back to my “freak brethren” because really these mainstreamed folks are destroying each other and self destructing.
You are a phenomenal woman. The intelligence and civility you show commenting at Roissy’s blog, in those extremely difficult circumstances, is truly amazing.
The male-female situation today is dire. The truth, as you recognize, is that sex is a fundamental aspect of human nature, male and female. We’re poisoning human nature and creating mass human misery.
I’m male, so I’ll offer a solution to the problem:
1. Cultivate a sense of wonder. Yup, “the war between the sexes rages on between groups of overly entitled White people.” Amazing. Makes me want to be black.
2. Engage in small acts of face-to-face kindness. Humans have evolved highly situational cognition. In the right circumstances, you could stir a smile even from those who have treated you vilely. Engage in these small acts of affirming joy in defiance of our current cosmic horrors.
Peace.
Thank you for the compliment, Secret 🙂
You’re right about the solutions, and I do these things offline.
I think my friend’s suicide, and another friend’s decline into predatoriness recently, have just made me wonder if it’s worth discussing relationships at all. I’m now leaning more towards just being a sounding board instead of offering any realism, advice, or direct encouragement. It seems that some people either get it or they don’t, and the ones who do, don’t need advice. The ones who don’t get it may just be doomed no matter what.
Maybe I should just stand back, and let nature take its course. I just don’t know yet if my motivation for taking that route is a cop out or if I’ve figured something out that is reality based.
