Who Benefits From Wrecking Women's Lives?

Maybe the answer is "Other women."

I'm going to start the analysis section of my recent series on sex, Sex, SEX! I'm not claiming that any of this is true, it's just something that occurred to me as I was writing another Arthurian story with ChatGPT and we started talking about the archetypal romantic relationships in the Arthurian Legends. As of this blog post, my longest such conversational session went on for 137 pages, but I promise to only share a very, very condensed subset of that.

Recapping recent blog posts, here's where we are so far:

Evolution And Romance

Whatever its flaws are when it comes to intra-species mutations, Darwinian evolution certainly applies within a species. For humans, that includes culture. If there are two cultures living side-by-side, the one that produces the better competitive results in conflict and reproduction will dominate the other.

Women get pregnant, men do not. During their last month of pregnancy, it's difficult for women to provide for themselves. Babies are vulnerable to all manner of threats for the first 5 years of their lives. For these reasons and many more, a culture that encourages men to protect, provide and cherish their women and children will dominate a culture that does not. Evolution will select for men and women who desire this kind of relationship. The culture will evolve to promote it.

When you watch videos of women in tremendous emotional pain as one romance after another ends in loneliness and rejection, you're seeing the results of a culture that is anti-Darwinian. When you watch the slow-motion demographic train wreck that is Europe, you can see cultural evolution in action. Islam respects biology, the Secular Left does not.

So far, we're only discussing biological reality and the mathematics of demographic progressions. These are factual data points, not opinions.

And now, down the rabbit hole we go!

Sabotage!

I'm not saying this is the explanation for what we're seeing, I'm only saying that it fits the facts. Life is hideously complicated and anyone selling a single-cause answer is selling snake oil. There are plenty of other forces at work harming women, but the realization that female sexual sabotage fits the data shocked me. I'll work through some of the other causes in other posts, but for right now, let's go with perhaps the craziest of them all.

Women are sabotaging other women. Modern feminism is the work of angry, bitter women who don't think they're going to get a man of their own making sure that other women won't, either and if they do, the men will be lousy. "If we're going to live in painful loneliness," they say, "you will, too."

Women are competitive, but their competition runs towards social undercurrents. Men fight, women scheme, plot and sabotage.

Think about what we've seen in this series of blog posts. It's all about equalizing the playing field for angry, ugly, bitter, lazy women by dragging all women down to their level.

Potentially beautiful women are wearing unflattering clothes, have masculine or hideous hairstyles and cop unpleasant attitudes. If you don't want to lose weight, don't think you're pretty anyway and you don't want to work on having an alluring personality, you can wallow in your unhappiness more happily if most of the other women have been taught to do the same.

Romance is founded on biological differences. You weren't going to get any romance, so if you minimize or deny sexual dimorphism, a lot of other women won't, either.

In a society where classical beauty and traditional sexual roles predominate, your status as the angry, bitter, ugly woman would stand out in sharp relief compared to happy, pretty, young wives with families. Who benefits from lower marriage rates, lower birth rates and more depression among women? Certainly not the girls who would have otherwise found protective, caring, devoted husbands.

And what about the men? Who benefits from the men wasting their sexual energies on porn? Certainly not the women who would have been wooed with vigor and joy. If you feel like you were doomed to romantic starvation, you'd feel a lot less isolated if other women were in the same boat.

Going back to my long conversation with ChatGPT, here's part of its analysis.

Payoffs for Angry, Bitter Women

1. Spreading Misery:

Shared Unhappiness: By promoting an environment where traditional courtship and chivalry are devalued, everyone, including those who might have thrived under traditional norms, ends up dissatisfied. This equalizes the playing field by bringing everyone to a similar level of dissatisfaction.

Destruction of Traditional Joy: The joy that pretty girls might have experienced from being wooed and cherished is undermined, making their romantic experiences less fulfilling and more akin to the disillusionment felt by bitter women.

2. Reduction of Competition:

Lowered Standards: By making sex easily accessible and reducing the emphasis on traditional romantic efforts, the competition for attention based on beauty and charm is diminished. This theoretically makes it easier for less traditionally attractive women to engage in sexual relationships.

Erosion of Special Treatment: Pretty girls no longer receive special treatment or extra effort from men, which can be seen as a way to level the playing field by reducing their advantages.

3. Ideological Validation:

Justification of Anger: The feminist narrative that challenges traditional gender roles and romantic norms provides ideological justification for the anger and bitterness of women who feel left out of traditional romantic dynamics.

Empowerment Through Disruption: Disrupting the traditional romantic and sexual landscape can be seen as a form of empowerment for those who felt marginalized by it, even if the overall effect is to reduce happiness for everyone.

I dunno, man. It sounded crazy when I first started the conversation, but those are all hitting the bullseye as far as I can see.

Equality now!

    Not even sure where to begin with this. Relationships are challenging, and that’s not feminism’s fault. I very much the appreciate the struggle resulting in access to education, a more level employment market and control over finances. It wasn’t that long ago when a woman needed her husband’s permission for a credit card.

    Ask any 40-plus woman about “special treatment” in her younger days. FYI oftentimes men pursuing you weren’t men you were interested in. Relationship drama happened back then, but wasn’t on social media blast.

    Nasty, angry people have been around for time immemorial, well before the feminist movement.

    Three cheers that beauty definitions are being expanded. Many women suffered (and continue to do so) from eating disorders trying to achieve the “ideal” woman’s body.

    I don’t get the tattoos and piercings, mainly because I hate needles, but pantsuits for work mean I never have to wear pantyhose again.

  2. "Romance is founded upon the biological differences between women and men."

    ... and the mutual appreciation of those differences. In some times and places, women were viewed as inferior men; in the current age, men are viewed as inferior women.
