This is the foundation of romance. Dudes like Imane Khelif can beat up chicks like Angela Carini with ease.
VILLEPINTE, France (AP) — Imane Khelif of Algeria won "her" opening Olympic boxing bout on Thursday when opponent Angela Carini of Italy quit after just 46 seconds.
Khelif was disqualified from the 2023 world championships after failing an "unspecified gender eligibility test," and her presence at the Paris Olympics has become a divisive issue.
Carini and Khelif exchanged only a few punches before Carini walked away and abandoned the bout, an extremely unusual occurrence in Olympic boxing. Carini, whose headgear apparently became dislodged at least once before she quit, didn’t shake Khelif’s hand after the decision was announced, but she cried in the ring on her knees.
Scare quotes mine. The unspecified gender eligibility test was, I kid you not, that Imane had XY chromosomes.
Here is the punch that ended the fight.

Romance is built upon the basic, biological fact that, if they are in anywhere near the same statistical quantile for size and strength, a man can do whatever he wants to a woman. For a woman to be safe, she needs a man who will be willing and able to protect her with his body. She must motivate the man to protect her.
Once you add babies into the picture, the load on the man gets even heavier and so the woman has to inspire him not just to protect her on a date, but to commit his life to protecting all of them. Further, the culture has to promote this so that men are willing to entertain the exchange. That's pretty much it.
If you deny biological reality or you don't reward men or you denigrate masculinity or you teach that women don't need men or undercut women by providing men with porn, romance wilts and dies.
For the purposes of this series, it's worth noting that the AP is an opportunistic parasite. The man who beat up the woman is referred to as "her" and his pounding of the Italian girl was "divisive" as if there are two sides to the issue, which, for the AP, there are. The AP gets virtue points for inclusivity in exchange for the Italian girl getting her face rearranged.
I know I promised to discuss how I stumbled to this realization while writing Arthurian romances, but this was such a perfect example of what I've been trying to say that I just couldn't help posting about it.

Recapping recent blog posts, here's where we are so far:
- Classically beautiful and feminine women are a rarity these days.
- Romance is founded upon the biological differences between women and men. The more you deny and minimize those, the less romance you will have.
- Whatever cultural changes we've been making, they are in opposition to evolution and are not driven by natural, Darwinian forces.
- Our younger generations are less happy, more lonely and deeper in debt.
- We are told to believe that ugly is beautiful.
- We aren't just denying sexual reality, we are fighting against it.
- Young women are being deeply injured by this.
- Many of our institutions have become incompetent because of this.
- There isn't a government solution for it.
- Angry, bitter women are sabotaging the lives of other women.
- The effort to spread the acceptance of sexual degeneracy is harming romance.
- We are all being harmed by the cultural shift away from romance.
- The changes in our culture are not hypersexual, they are hyposexual.
- There are plenty of parasites feeding on our unhappiness and dysfunction.

ReplyDeleteSo, that's your position? That "romance" is a protection racket, where the man extorts sex out of a woman because she is terrified that other men will do something worse? And she should be happy about it, and give him everything he wants in desperate hope that he will stick around?
I find it hard to believe that if you were a shop owner, and Big Tony sent his goons around to shake you down for "protection" money, that you would get much consolation from the thought that Big Tony's gang would at least (probably) chase off the other gangs. And I am sure that you wouldn't swoon about what a great guy Big Tony was, and how lucky you were to have him.
You have completely missed the point. And I mean completely.
ReplyDeleteThink in terms of complementarity, not contractual exchange. What does it mean to be complimentary, that the two people fit together at all levels and make a whole unit, distinct from the simple sum of their parts?
It's worth noting that the women doing the remorse videos when they cannot find a man frequently point to the need to feel protected as a chief reason they want a man. It's also something they discuss when they describe what is missing from modern men. Complementarity, is the key to romance. The man and woman offer different things, need different things and are attracted to different things. This is why women who are 100# overweight and guys who can't bench press a milk carton aren't in high demand.
