For Better or Worse

betterorworse

Before I dive in here today it’s going to be important to put things into perspective with respect to an Old Married Guy becoming Red Pill aware and then applying what he’s learned in his marriage. In the last few comment threads the discussion has veered to what exactly the state of “monogamy” (if it can be called that) will look like in the next few decades given Red Pill awareness, Open Hypergamy, the progression of technologies that conflict with (or exacerbate) our evolved capacity to reproduce, etc.

The conversation tends to be a back and forth between what a more feasible and pragmatic approach to long-term relationships might be. The Young Single Guys make a (rather convincing) case for some form of men reserving the option of non-exclusivity; to take on short term lovers should the opportunity present itself – even if for just protecting a man’s state of Frame. Dread, being what it is, would necessarily be a mutually understood cornerstone of this arrangement.

The OMGs who’ve had the benefit of experience with respect to living with women (and in some cases divorces), rearing children (for better or worse) then offer up the realities of what a pLTR might be limited by with respect to actually living in an arrangement like this and the legal ramifications it leaves men open to.

Hashing out what Marriage 3.0 will or should look like is a discussion I’ll reserve for the next essay. For now I think it’s going to be important for that debate to recognize that since Red Pill awareness, in the intersexual respect, is a relatively new social awareness there’s always going to be differing experiences with it.

For the young men who’ve had the benefit of being Red Pill aware and learning Game, courtesy of communication technology and the experiences of countless other older men, it may sound kind of mundane when an Old Married Guy (OMG) finally ‘gets it’ after being Blue Pill for so long. But while you may never consider getting married in the future, you will no doubt get older and hopefully wiser in a way that your elders never had the benefit of. The reason I wrote Preventive Medicine was to do just this; to teach men what to expect from women and their sexual strategies and prioritization at their various phases of maturity. However, I would be remiss not to take into consideration what YSGs relate about the realities of today’s sexual marketplace. I think between us we have a very powerful knowledge-base.

As I said, for YSGs, it may seem mundane for a formerly Blue Pill OMG to kick up his wife’s sexual interest with his new Red Pill awareness, but consider that to him the Red Pill is an exciting answer to a long struggle. Likewise, an older guy reeling from an ugly divorce and rebuilding an even better life and sex life with Red Pill awareness is a fantastic feeling that I think is hard for YSGs to empathize with.

Instant Gratification

In my Stalling for Time essay I quoted reader YaReally and his understandable frustration with dealing with women in what’s become the modern sexual marketplace. I won’t re-quote it here, but the gist of it was how women of this generation are so predisposed to the attentions that social media offers them. The immediacy of social affirmation is just an Instagram post away and Beta orbiters are now a utility women simply take for granted.

It’s important to understand this in the light of how women’s psyches interpret instantaneous affirmation, as well as instantaneous indignation, attention and emotional consolation from both Beta orbiters and ‘you go girl’ girlfriends. I should also point out that there’s an even uglier side to this equation for women and girls who find themselves social outcasts. The cruel venom from haters is equally as instantaneous and likewise women’s evolved psyches struggle to process this.

As is the theme of this series, we have a situation wherein technological advancement outpaces human capacity to adequately process how it is affecting us. In this case we have women’s solipsistic nature that prevents the insight necessary to self-govern themselves with regard to how instant gratification of their base needs for attention is affecting their personalities and the decisions they make because of it. Prior to the communication age women’s need for interpersonal affirmation was generally limited to a small social circle and the opportunities to satisfy it were precious and private. It used to require far more investment on the part of women to connect interpersonally. But in the space of just two generations the social media age has made this affirmation an expect part of a woman’s daily life.

On top of this, we find ourselves in a time when feminine-primacy in our social structure makes criticizing or even making casual, constructive, observations of this self-gratifying vanity on par with misogyny for men. Women cannot hear what men wont tell them, and women have far less incentive to self-examine the consequences of what this affirmation-satisfying attention is working in them.

The Open Hypergamy Future

I get what the Young Single Guys are saying, I really do. I linked this article in a recent comment and after reading through it and author’s blog I can’t help but sympathize with the YSG’s grasp of the modern dating scene and how utterly hopeless it is for men to expect anything less than complete, life altering despair from the prospect of marriage. There is no upside to monogamous commitment, but the real kicker is that this condition is what women plan for and would hope for their own daughters.

Now, I understand Emma Johnson is another click-bait outrage broker, but is the sentiment her reader relates in raising her daughter to expect to be a single mother as an ideal state all that difficult or shocking to believe from women in this era?

My dream for my daughter is that she be in a loving relationship, and have a good ex-husband who really does a great job with the kids, 50 percent of the time.

People forget the joys of divorce — sharing your kids without guilt and having alone/me time.

[…]I also have time to exercise, enjoy vacations that are relaxing and involve lots of book-reading, and I have had time to nurture a relationship with my new husband, with fewer of the stresses of blended families.

The idealized state is one in which I outlined in The Myth of the Good Guy:

The problem with this ‘Good Guy’ myth is not because men can’t or wouldn’t want to try to balance women’s Hypergamy for them, but simply because women neither want nor expect that balance in the same man to begin with.

This is a new step in Open Hypergamy, the acknowledgement and proud embrace of women’s Hypergamous sexual strategy is not enough. The open expectation that one man will father and support her children while another will satisfy her sexually and appreciatively is not enough. The plan is literally to raise a young woman to adulthood with the expectation of her raising another child without a father/husband in her life and the child’s. We’re left to presume that the preferred norm for raising boys will be in teaching them it’s their responsibility to accommodate this norm.

The plan is not simply to end the Sandbergian plan for Hypergamy with the “Equal partner, someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home.” The plan is to leave that well-providing Beta once he’s been locked into indefinite utility and take up with a sexier husband with fewer parental stresses.

Yet, despite the overtness of women’s Hypergamy, men still have an idealistic hope that the worst predations of women wont happen to them. Read this woman’s post, sift through her other posts; she’s despicable, calculating, duplicitous and would put the knife in your back she told you she would,…but she’s also honest.

Whether by our conditioning or some intrinsic idealism, we want to believe in the earnestness of the Old Set of Books in the face of New Book women openly telling us “You stupid men, this is what we plan to do to you from the outset. Naked, open Hypergamy and all its machinations is what I will teach my daughters and grand daughters to do to your sons and grandsons. And you will take it and accept your Alpha Fucks or Beta Bucks roles in all of it because you’ll never get past your inherent idealism that we might not do all of this.”

We want to believe this woman is an outlier, but by order of degree, we know that whether it’s with softly spoken, loving words or a mommy blog that triumphantly yells these truths, women’s opportunistic concept of love will never align with our idealistic concept of love.

Primary LTRs

The arrangement this woman is hoping will be her daughter’s adult life is not too far different from what YaReally was suggesting about pLTRs; a primary long term relationship with a direct or indirect understanding that a man could take other lovers as fits him. He’s not the first to suggest the pLTR scheme as a workaround for marriage or raising a family sans marriage or binding commitment. And if Emma Johnson (or the reader she’s quoted) is to be believed this would be her own ideal relationship, albeit from the perspective of a woman retaining total Frame control.

Even a PUA like Mystery believed he could maintain a literal harem in some kind of live-in pLTR. And then there are the men who subscribe to the Charles Bukowski school of intersexual relations – in the right socioeconomic conditions this pLTR is realtively possible, but I think this is a poor substitute for what, as men we’d like to be an ideal, reciprocal marriage in which men can expect respect, desire, love, honor and all the other words no woman could ever hope to recite from their marriage vows.

I’ve locked horns with more than a few women who want to take me to task over my debating that human beings are not naturally monogamous. From a social perspective, loose monogamy and women’s inherent need for cuckoldry has always conflicted with our more or less successful human progress based on monogamous marriage. This is changing right along with the latest technologies that afford it to. As such, men are also forced to adapt and improvise with women’s inabilities to process these changes and the rapidity with which the next ones occur.

The old gals always like to tout that western society is the result of our agrarian roots and monogamous way of life. This is ironic since it’s women themselves who’ve fought tooth and nail to destroy exactly this ‘successful’ set up. Ruthless, open Hypergamy is now something to be proud of; something to instruct our daughters to utilize for their own solipsistic, selfish betterment at men’s expense – and to feel no shame for it, but rather expect it as the future norm.

It’s now time for men to either accept and adapt to this, or to form our own response to it in a way that not only benefits our interests, but the interests of women who can no longer process these changes without mens’ direct instruction. In Our Sisters’ Keeper I explored the notion that women of today are merely the women we deserve because men have kept their counsel about the affairs of women. We’ve got the women we deserve because our silence, and the silence of our forbearers, was the voice of complicity. Now we’ve come so far that women will send a man to jail or the unemployment office, or a paternity court rather than hear a man criticize her inability to process social changes that harm not only her but the larger social order.

There must come a point where men must unapologetically correct women for the betterment of society. Today this is a bold statement, one that could likely bring consequences to man’s life, but it’s only a bold thought because we’ve allowed women and their imperatives define the Frame of our social order for so long now. The socio-intersexual conditions we find ourselves in today are the direct result of women’s inability to process rapid social changes. As men we need to collectively recognize this. We need to recognize also that our social state is the result of allowing women to set a social framework that indentures men, that calls single motherhood and Hypergamous choices normative ideals.

We also need to recognize that we will be reviled for presuming some patriarchal control or male privilege, but we must have the confidence to set this aside in the knowledge that we now understand that women cannot cope with post-modern social and technological changes.

When the marriage rate dips to 35%,
when strong men simply refuse to have wives or LTGs of any stripe,
when 15% of men, strong or otherwise, hand-grenade their finances
or do indefinite jail-time rather than pay coerced child support,
when single mothers are universally looked upon with quiet contempt,

only then will women as a voting bloc contemplate the necessary Changes.

One: Alimony ceases.
Two: Individual Child Support ceases.
Three: State Child Support conditional on sterilisation.

Interesting… some women advocate for 50/50 shared custody (leading women for shared parenting group), but out of a sense of fairness to fathers and of course “for the kids”. For this other hypergamous woman Emma Johnson to advocate for 50/50 out of just pure solipsism (she got her sperm and now a better provider) may be one way to get supporters and for this to get more widespread acceptance. Of course once it’s in a woman’s benefit they will want it.

Because as long as possible is really a short ride for the vast majority of women and they never even see the top 20%. If I had a dollar for every late 20’s girl who told me “all the good men are taken (married) or gay”… Nature is brutal and in the end always correct.

The schools are designed, by psychologists, to affect a transfer of authority away from parents (and particularly fathers) and onto teachers and school administrators.

And that’s the good news.

The bad news is that the current crop of primary schoolers are being trained to have authority over their parents. Start preparing your public confessions to the Cultural Revolution.

The first thing I noticed about the woman’s plan was that it requires the full commitment of two men for each woman for it to work. She would find the plan a bit less appealing if man #1 got remarried and had more kids, diluting his ability to care for the first batch; and then man #2 was ALSO on his second marriage and she had to help care for HIS first batch while hers is away.

While individual and small groups of outlier men look at the board and try to work out their next move, the collective of women is setting up checkmate in 10.

“There must come a point where men must unapologetically correct women for the betterment of society.” I wonder whether this “correction” is not already starting to take place? Not in an overt, active, public or verbal “dressing down” sense that one would imagine from some drill sergeant, but a more deliberate, calm, passive and almost indifferent response by men. Indeed a growing number of men are no longer silent about how poorly they are being regarded and treated by women and by the state, by teachers, by school administrators, by the corporation at work, by the corporation as consumers, and… Read more »

@Forge the Sky I noticed the same assumption about the “single mother dream for my daughter” story. She has to find one schlub to deceive first, then find her AF with the expectation that he will be ok with her kids around half the time. Of course it’s assumed that the AF will be single, it isn’t even thought of that he might also have kids and she will have to deal with his half the time, as well as the baby mama drama, etc. Makes me lulz… Such narcissicm and sense of entitlement, fully expecting to just dump the… Read more »

Forge – nice vid link. I see a lot of that all around me, starting with the toddlers carrying tablets. Sure, there’s plenty of men who are content with the illusion of a harem, just as women are content with the illusion of unlimited male affirmation. There’s a big difference, of course: visual porn is denegrated even now in the wider society, and in the religious subcommunities it’s equated with cheating or adultery. Beta orbiters? No big deal. Ditto women’s preferred form of porn, textual, no big deal. Just more of the catering to the FI. All in favor of… Read more »

Forge The first thing I noticed about the woman’s plan was that it requires the full commitment of two men for each woman for it to work. She would find the plan a bit less appealing if man #1 got remarried and had more kids, diluting his ability to care for the first batch; and then man #2 was ALSO on his second marriage and she had to help care for HIS first batch while hers is away. Doesn’t matter what the man wants. Under the child-support model of “marriage” the resources follow the child, and her plan assumes the… Read more »

Yes, the plan absolutely does require deception, as you stated above: “….. her goal is for her daughter, who is now a teenager, is to grow up and have a child with a great man who will be a great co-parent, then END THE RELATIONSHIP and find a… Read more »

Ultimately, a lot of the problems we have in society today (which aren’t limited to the relationships between men and women) exist because we’re a tremendously wealthy civilization. The reason we have an absolutely insane family structure and that, as a society, we kowtow to the lunatics is because we’re wealthy enough to survive the consequences. While individuals might be smart about such things it is general human nature to squander advantages in whatever form they take. We do it because we can afford it. Personally, I expect marriage, family and the relationship between the sexes to revert to what… Read more »

Could you support this assertion with some data?
A time series of % married vs. % never married sorted by income starting in, say, 1890 to 1910 running up to around 2014 would be pretty good evidence.

Because I’m sure you aren’t just making stuff up for a cool one-liner.
