For an independent thinker, the “uniform” is death or part of a costume, depending on your status and awareness. For normal people though, it’s the type they should pursue because they would destroy or be destroyed by anyone else. This is why I prefer honesty over the PC narrative. People should be able to see anomic behavior coming, and not be lulled into a false sense of security because almost everyone is lying.

In my opinion though, men in the west have a real dilemma. Because of the social programming, most westernized women have begun to view themselves as a sort of in-group, and men as outsiders, and are behaving accordingly. The decision not to pursue the “uniform” may be a sound one, but it has dangers that men should be aware of. If one accepts the risks and knows how to navigate the pitfalls, then great, but to get that knowledge, one has to face hard truths about themselves and humanity at large, that many don’t want to.

The average person can’t cope with these things. So even if it feels like watching a trainwreck, I don’t advise people who are conformists in every other way, make an exception in romantic relationships. Better they tow the line.
