In 2015 women were offered workplace benefits that would allow them to freeze their eggs in order to grant them a promise of a future family irrespective of the personal or career choices they make in life. Granted, this benefit is only reserved for higher up positions in select tech firms that can afford to make a showing of concern for women’s professional and family aspirations (as a PR effort), but the message of even having an option to reserve giving birth at a later phase in life is clear:
Women want an assurance of Hypergamous optimization.
Whether it’s on the personal scale of socially engineering generations of men to accommodate this, or on the larger, more direct scale of legislating those assurances into common law, the underlying imperative is making that optimization as certain as possible for the largest number of women.
It’s important to remember that Hypergamy is rooted in doubt; doubt that any one man might serve to optimally satisfy the dual nature of women’s sexual strategy – optimal sexual agency for optimal genetic selection, and then optimal provisioning for optimal parental investment in offspring – Alpha Fucks / Beta Bucks. This doubt of optimization defines the subconscious hindbrain experience for women throughout all phases of their lives.
I covered these phases in Preventive Medicine the book, but to keep things brief, it’s a necessary review when we consider how this doubt extrapolates from the biological level, to the neurological level, on to the personal experiential level, to the interpersonal/intersexual, and on to the great societal and political level. Ensuring Hypergamy is optimized for a majority of women, irrespective of their own suitability for a majority of men, (and at the complete abdication of men’s sexual strategies) is at the root of all feminine empowerment, all socialization of feminine primacy, all cultural efforts to normalize it, and all legislation determined to enforce it.
The latent purpose of developing technology to freeze a woman’s eggs, for instance, is to cheat (or give the impression of being able to cheat) the otherwise naturalistic process of fertility that women are beholden to.
The latent purpose of every pop-cultural trend that contributes to the perception that women can realistically exceed the window of their fertility is offered as an assurance that women have more time than would be naturalistically expected to optimize Hypergamy.
Ostensibly the message for women is the cliché of ‘having it all’ – reassuring women that they can have a rewarding career and make a significant difference in their lives and the lives of others as well as realistically having a meaningful family experience later in life. The unspoken hindbrain message is that a woman has more time to optimize Hypergamy.
If this doubt ensuring requires men’s sacrifices or special dispensations in order to accommodate women’s naturalistic realities or individual deficiencies, those requirements are simply means to an end.
Furthermore, the Feminine Imperative makes exhaustive effort in social, personal and political spheres to assure women that even when their Hypergamous choices prove debilitating or damaging that they have the prerogative to reset their chances at optimization proactively or retroactively.
Whether this is realistic or not is irrelevant to the messaging. This messaging is couched in the social expectation that men are required to afford women this forgiveness of past indiscretions (single motherhood, Alpha Widows, etc.), but again, the purpose of this reset is to provide women with the maximum amount of leeway in consolidating on an optimized Hypergamy.
In Nursing Power I outlined the power dynamic behind women’s drive to maintain the primacy of a feminine defined social order, but it’s too easy to simply think that women’s ultimate end of attaining power is for the sake of power alone. That want for power is driven by the obsessive hindbrain need to quell the doubt that Hypergamy instills in women. All we need do is look at the societal changes women will push to legislate for once they have even marginal degrees of power.
Margins of Power
Serendipitously commenter Not Born This Morning took me to task on this idea in the last comment thread:
@ Rollo – “The new, post-sexual revolution order is a model ostensibly based on ‘sexual freedom’, but what this really represents is a return to that naturalistic sexual order based on pre-agrarian, evolutionarily incentivized hypergamy.”
This is not true.
The naturalistic sexual social order of pre-agrarian human existence expressed BOTH genders natural sexuality without preference of one over the other or the perversion of both that we see today. Today’s laws and social conventions prevent men from returning to THEIR natural sexuality. We are not returning to the naturalistic sexual social order and there is no indication that we will any time soon.
Many of todays “betas” are restrained “alphas”. Law and social convention restrains them.
As a point of order here, I wasn’t suggesting that ‘societally’ western culture is returning to anything like a pre-agrarian sexual paradigm, but rather that pre-agrarian evolved paradigm of Hypergamy is informing the social narrative. Both pre and post agrarian, Hypergamy still influenced and determined our socio-sexual direction – men performed, women chose.
It is not idealism, intellectualism, mental masturbation or “cultural changes” that determine human behavior. We like to pretend that emotional idealism steers history but it never has and never will. We think women are “liberated” by laws and social conventions but they are not. The laws and social conventions that we think make it possible for women to “enjoy” new “freedom” are not the cause, they are only ideals and “paradigms” that result from the real cause.
These laws and social conventions are only thoughts, documents and behavioral practices that confirm what has already happened and been accepted. Women have been liberated from responsibilities and hardships they faced prior to agriculture.
Technology and industrialization were the real enablers of female “liberation” and “freedom”. Today, because of technology, we are relatively safe from predators, famine, disease, and tribes of other humans, etc. We are intellectually advanced (maybe) but definitely physically and mentally weaker. Today’s human female does not need the superior strength, tenacity, strategic intelligence and initiative possessed by surviving males in pre-agrarian tribal groups. Back then, she and her children could not have survived without it him. Today we breed mostly wanna be hyenas and betas and they are voting accordingly.
While we may have a greater mastery over our environment and women may not need strength, tenacity, etc. women’s sexual nature is still informed by an evolved Hypergamy that responds to, and is aroused by, these cues in men.
However, NBTM has a point. Perhaps I should revise that idea, but I will say that post-Sex Rev, the paradigm has favored women’s sexual strategy as the one to define our predominant social order (i.e. unfettered Hypergamy).
Given that freedom and preferential deference to women’s imperatives in a social context, women use both to optimize on a Hypergamy that evolved from pre-agrarian physical and social environments.
Thus, with all the Beta security/provisioning aspects of Hypergamy being met by men (either directly or indirectly) the Alpha sexuality/breeding aspect of Hypergamy is the only thing not directly or immediately available to women without their own qualification for it.
And even this is progressively being accounted for both socially and legislatively with regard to sexual consent law ambiguities, ubiquitous abortion, divorce concessions and curbing every trivial expression of male sexuality from men not ‘worthy’ of expressing it. In fact virtually every socially mandated convention that limits men’s sexual expression or his most marginal want of qualification in women is really an effort in forcing men to comply with women’s need for optimizing Hypergamy.
That’s an important footnote in a social order that’s primarily focused on women’s Hypergamy as the predominant one, and then one that is primarily focused on men’s Alpha side sexual suitability. Beta provisioning needs being relatively assured, women demand satisfaction, qualified and verified satisfaction, of men’s suitability in an Alpha breeding context.
For example:
You’ll have to forgive me for using this video of Gronk (the first has been making the rounds on Twitter), but his nature, attitude and behavior are illustrative of a Hypergamous social order that forgives the excesses of a confirmed Alpha.
I stated in a prior essay that women will break rules for Alphas, but create and impose more rules on Betas while expecting compliance from them. This can be extended to the greater whole of a society based on the Feminine Imperative; feminine social mores forgive the Alpha while punishing the impotent Beta for daring to qualify himself as an Alpha.
One reason women despise the undeniable efficacy of Game is because it devises to bypass women’s innate, evolved filters for determining men’s Alpha suitability. Game depends on triggering women’s emotional states, bad or good, so in addition to intentionally working around her filters, Game also creates an emotional impact.
Bypassing women’s filters, and misrepresenting (or impersonating) a genuine Alpha article is a capitol offense to Hypergamous doubt. So it should come as no surprise that the most egregious laws and social mandates with regards to men’s “appropriate” sexual conduct center on women’s qualifying men and verifying his value to her optimization.
Example: Assemblyman Troy Singleton wants to introduce a bill that would make misrepresenting oneself as a means to sex to be equatable to rape-by-fraud:.
And thus we come to NBTM’s assertion that,…
Today’s laws and social conventions prevent men from returning to THEIR natural sexuality. We are not returning to the naturalistic sexual social order and there is no indication that we will any time soon.
Through cultural, religious or physical means Hypergamy has always had contingencies to keep it in check. These contingencies (rape included unfortunately) are all efforts for men’s assurances of paternity and fidelity in a long term mate, and ultimately (hopefully) constitute men’s exercising an influence on the direction of his culture and species.
From Martie Hasslton on Sexual Pluralism and Mating Strategies:
According to strategic pluralism theory (Gangestad & Simpson, 2000), men have evolved to pursue reproductive strategies that are contingent on their value on the mating market. More attractive men accrue reproductive benefits from spending more time seeking multiple mating partners and relatively less time investing in offspring. In contrast, the reproductive effort of less attractive men, who do not have the same mating opportunities, is better allocated to investing heavily in their mates and offspring and spending relatively less time seeking additional mates.
I’ve emphasized the last bit here because it’s important to consider that the reproductive efforts of lower SMV men necessitate the institution of social structures that also (potentially) ensure his narrowly invested efforts in fewer (or one) mate and his offspring. That man cannot afford to be caught on the losing end of polyandry or cuckoldry. Thus the 80% of men with the most investment and most to lose in the conflict of women’s sexual strategy (Hypergamy) establish social conventions to develop assurances of their own.
Those social structures, religions doctrines and various cultural norms are contingent insurances against the results of a society based on unfettered Hypergamy. In essence those structures were established as buffers against the lack of influence men would have in a society that unilaterally empowers women’s Hypergamy and removes any decision making influence.

Dude, the ‘Man in the Arena’ speech is inspirational and can not be quoted too often here, IMO.

I’m all for collaborating, but not when you wield your ideas like a stick.
@SJF – I want to talk about how the conflicted innate nature of the human condition implies things about the nature of collaboration itself and how this dynamic interfaces with some of the human conflicts – namely those outlined by redpill – and try to say this in perhaps 20 different ways since beginning here – and it’s no go always – because it is: – WM don’t understand redpill – WM didn’t read – WM is intellectually weak-minded – WM is insane – WM is an airy-fairy idealist – WM want to live in fairy land with pretty unicorns… Read more »

What color are you?
@YaReally > “It sounds like your current situation involves a lot of coddling yourself and avoiding risking experiencing bad emotions…playing to “not lose” instead of to “win”.” I’ve been thinking a lot of what you said here and you are right. Most of my life I´ve been coddled: by my parents (I don’t fault them, they are great people) and by myself, and at 27 years old is embarrassing and painful to admit this shit. > “Consider getting a more social job that forces you to interact with strangers regularly…a year of bartending or sales or customer service hell working… Read more »
Sorry for the delayed responses: @Blaximus I’m not sure why I have to spell this out but I’ll try to keep it brief: Anyone in corporate business can tell you that satisfied employees make better and more productive employees. This business is calculating that if the TOTAL cost of freezing eggs per employee is around $X USD, then the benefits of advertising this new policy, hiring career motivated women, and satisfying their employees will net them approximately $X+Y USD. Even if Y = $1, as long as the total cost is recaptured and they gain a better public profile AND… Read more »
@Scribblerg Since you seem to be the only one have trouble I guess I’m sorry for your reading disability (whatever it is). Perhaps, if you continue to practice your writing skills, you’ll get better at comprehension. No, this is not my point in a nutshell. It’s not about criticizing males. It’s about giving them just as much attention as females. Take this new article on “Gamer Girls” why couldn’t we have an in-depth analysis on “Gamer Guys” (not really a thing in the same sense but I think even you can understand). Some dissection of the male personality into its… Read more »
@SJF “I’ve been trying to come up with something over the past year and a half. But I got nothing. No ammunition in that regard. Why is that?” Lol I dunno dude. Probably because you’re not a very original thinker and couldn’t come up with a decent manosphere argument if your life depended on it. No wonder your friend wasn’t convinced lol. I’m teasing obviously dude but … damn that was too easy. Ya, amorality is fine. Non-objective amorality is suspicious and likely to be misconstrued at the best of times. Is more likely to be used as a brainwashing… Read more »
@Rollo No one is arguing that companies are not reacting to society. There’s a difference between reacting to a market and setting an agenda. What you’re suggesting is that they KNOW what they’re doing and it’s sinister. What I’m suggesting is that this is less about the big scary FI sending its mind-control tentacles out and more about intelligent business decisions made in the context of FI-centric culture. Business has no stake in who “wins” the gender war. They just want to make money. Whatever makes them look good makes them more money. The simplest answer, usually being the correct… Read more »
Lol. Ha hah, HeeHee, he heeh.
YGBSM.
Great artists know tracing rather than drawing is legit.
I’ve never heard something more far fetched here in the last 2 years. You don’t get around much, do you?
Heheh, frame is not power. Good luck with traction here.
Stop digging.
I don’t have any push back on red pill ideas and game because I totally fucking endorse it.
Count me as an enthusiast.
@YaReally > “Fucking Brony lol Awesome. Man did you take a sharp right turn to end up in the red pill from THAT subculture lol “ Yeah man, most guys have their red pill awakening by having nightmare relationships or being divorce raped, etc. Me? Fucking My Little Pony, I don’t know what to feel about this lol > “the next step will be taking action and trying to fix it, slowly but surely. That’s pretty decent mental progress alone dude. “ So far it’s my biggest problem; I’m very inconsistent when I take action, I have to find a… Read more »
Son of a bitch… I posted in the wrong thread! lol
@SJF “Great artists know tracing rather than drawing is legit.” Oh don’t be so modest! The greats trace YOU! “Stop digging.” Maybe when I’m dead. I suppose not everyone can be as great and unflinching in their obsequiousness. “I don’t have any push back on red pill ideas and game because I totally fucking endorse it.” This reminds me of something a great philosopher once said: “Instead of questioning and scrutinizing ideas… I totally fucking endorse them.” =P All in good fun. I know they’re good ideas. I wouldn’t be reading them if they weren’t. But I don’t believe everything… Read more »
@Yhufir – I have read your recent commenting here (within the thread of this post) with interest. I do appreciate the quality of your objective perspective (as belied by the quality of the questions you ask). I’m not sure if you are interested in my particular recent line of inquiry – which is using the redpill knowledge base (or more precisely the evol psych knowledge base that implies redpill) to get at something deeper about humanity, – particularly wrt my intuition that the redpill-implied gender differences around personal agency is an area of exploration that is potentially ripe for obtaining… Read more »
@Wild Man Thanks for your inquiry. To answer your question right away: No, there’s no other online discussions I’m currently participating in which I would recommend as discussion points that seem to be associated with the personal agency theme. However, I could point you to some interesting podcasts and discussions on some very specific topics which do, peripherally, deal with personal agency. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, they’re VERY specific topics which might not suit your needs and, in my experience, require some background in the fields in order to jump into. Also, none of them are informed or based on… Read more »
slightly OT…
I didn’t realize Janet Bloomfield was making such videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pscPaTsiZaQ
Janet’s understanding of human sexual interaction seems to be growing in wisdom/complexity. It’s almost as if she reads here.
@Yhufir – thank-you for your response. You are indicating that the field of psychological trauma research may yield insights into the nature of personal agency (I take it that you have a career in psychology focusing on trauma? Are you involved in research in this respect?). I think I would find interface of ideas trauma/personal-agency-wise, interesting, it there is anything you may fancy directing me to. I do know just a bit about the field, wrt to Gabor Mate’s work (out of Vancouver B.C.) and his idea as to how the natural extreme malleability of brain circuitry remapping occurring during… Read more »
” . . . a woman’s egalitarian viewpoint?””
Misogynist: A man who hates women as much as women hate one another.
“And redpill-aware women (or other women) will not engage in any meaningful way around this issue . . .”
See above.
” . . .but neither will redpill-aware men).”
Red Pill is not a philosophy. If you wish to discuss philosophy, the obvious thing to do would be to go to a philosophy forum.
