		<description><![CDATA[[&#8230;] In The Burden of  Performance I made the case for men&#8217;s need to perform for feminine acceptance and how men&#8217;s idealistic concept of love centers not on a want for unconditional love, but rather a love free from the performance requirements women&#8217;s opportunistic, Hypergamous, concept of love demands of him. This quote sums up that idealistic want for rest from having to perform to earn a woman&#8217;s love and acceptance. [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got started here a few days ago, and am working thru all your backlinks from other articles.  I&#039;m loving this conversation.

Small contribution here:

A man starts off as the &quot;performer&quot; (or the clown?).  He does this, because it&#039;s his job to make &quot;offers&quot; to women (who accept/decline).  He walks up, starts his &quot;performance.&quot;  This forces her into the role of a critic (any guy that has done cold-approach, knows what it feels like to be critiqued).  The critic &quot;leans back&quot; and &quot;evaluates,&quot; until she&#039;s hooked... then she becomes a &quot;fan,&quot; leans forward, and the roles are reversed.

This is a nice example of how a man can/should be both &quot;leader&quot; and &quot;chased&quot; in the same seduction.  Depends on what stage he&#039;s in... and if he has a &quot;fan&quot; yet or not.  

I just wrote out an extended version of this here:

		<description><![CDATA[[&#8230;] In prior posts I&#8217;ve also made the case that men&#8217;s idealistic perspective of love stems from an unending need for performance to merit a woman&#8217;s opportunistic love. It&#8217;s not that men want an unrealistic, unconditional love, but rather they want a woman&#8217;s love to be a refuge from having to perform up to, above and beyond the requirements of satisfying an unending optimization of her Hypergamy. It&#8217;s not unconditional love they idealize, it&#8217;s a love that&#8217;s not predicated on their burden of performance. [&#8230;]]]></description>
