I always advise against listening to male influencers whose whole identity is talking trash about women. They have significant mother wounds, they've missed 50% of what life is about. They can't realize half of their own selves. And they can't get a woman to give them devotion. The only way to learn from such men is how not to carry yourself. As a general rule, if a man has a big ego but cannot COMMAND: A woman's genuine desire. A woman's undying loyalty and devotion. A woman's respect for him as a moral and spiritual authority. Something's deeply wrong with him. And the more money they have - the worse their case. Women are the best bullshit detectors. "Red pilled" men are the prime reason why masculinity is on the decline because they misunderstand basic biology. The women they describe as desirable is mind-boggling to me - wholly submissive, super agreeable, incredibly passive and materially dependent on others. What else do those traits remind you of? Do you really want to be inputting these traits into your offspring? You know most of the mental and intuitive traits are transferred to the child through the mother, right? And most of the physical and instinctive traits is transferred from the father - right? These same men will use terms like "NPC" and "Beta" when, in truth, the objects of their desire are the primary architects of conformist, low-intensity beta-babies and NPCs. How a generation of weak men are born is due to this, when men who are, in fact, in reality highly feminine start to muse theories about what masculinity entails. They'll then revert to studying the philosophies of old and attempt to embody these same ideals they claim to worship but will always find themselves lacking and fall short. Why? It's simple, because they realise that masculinity cannot be "manufactured", it is an inherent trait that is transferred, for the most part, FROM THE MOTHER to the child. Bet you didn't know that, did you? Ironically, most of these "red pill" bros tend to have mother wounds, absent mothers, dysfunctional mothers or some issue of this sort. I'm not making fun of this, of course - this is a wound that needs healing and nurture, but to reject and deny this wound will only further increase their suffering. A mother's GUIDANCE and GRACE driven through the father's EXAMPLE and EXPECTATIONS is what makes a good masculine man. The mother imparts passive masculine traits (her own) unto the child, while the father imparts passive feminine traits (his own) to the child. Actively, post-birth, the father then imparts active masculine traits unto the child, and the mother imparts active feminine traits. This is the delicate and beautiful balance of evolution, whose formula is unbeaten. One just does not work without the other. So when you look for a good woman - look for the things you'd want your daughter or son to inherit in the form of temperament, intensity, rebelliousness, willpower, strength, and a zest for life. For the Andrew Tates of the world, the lesson here is that easy pickings come at a price. When you disempower your woman - you disempower your offspring. When you mate with a woman of strong character - your offspring inherit her strengths and intellect. "I don't need her to be smart, just get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich, do as I say and never talk back." Yeah, your son will inherit those traits. ![[3F80B96C-076C-4500-8CD3-BF868E247E32.gif]]
