A Man Needs A Woman Like A Fish Needs A Bicycle

Many moons ago, Gloria Steinem came up with the bon mot, "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." Hormonally, this is completely backwards. Actually, thanks to Internet porn, a man needs a woman like a fish needs a bicycle.

I can't remember where I heard it, most likely on a Jordan Peterson podcast, but it turns out that a woman's complex sex hormones are associated with emotional bonding whereas testosterone, for all intents a purposes a man's only sex hormone, is associated with lust and mating.

This matches what I've heard in the closing sessions at Catholic retreats for men and women where the newbies get up and talk about what they got out of the weekend. The men talk about becoming more loving and gentle and the women talk about having their emotional needs met. And, boy howdy, are there a lot of emotional needs there!

Going back to this post, we saw a wife jilted by porn talk about her devastating loss.

There were so many resonances with my own failed marriage. The women’s dismay at how that beautiful sensitive man they fell in love with had morphed into a selfish narcissist who neither noticed nor cared about the impact of his behaviour on his wife and children. All that mattered was that he got his own way – the once sublime sex now reduced to something more akin to masturbation with a blow-up doll...

She needed him to be her rock, her foundation in life. She needed him to be strong, stable, competent and adoring so, with her emotional needs met, she could be the wife and mother she wanted to be. Once he got involved with porn, she was no longer necessary for his primary need. She was the bicycle, he was the fish.

So here we are. Men with their basic needs met, doing very little and women with emotional problems.


Whoops. Looks like the feminists got it wrong.

In time, this will get fixed. Major mistakes like this are self-limiting. Over time, women will realize this was all nonsense. Right now, we seem to be at the blame-men-stage where the Great Thinkers of our say think they can harangue men into being better. Good luck with that.

Super genius James Cameron thinks men need to purge testosterone from their systems or something like that. Thanks for your input, James.

This reminds me of the Churchill quote, "Americans always do the right thing, but only after they've tried everything else."
