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.
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.
“Dem goalposts are frickin’ fast little buggers, ain’t dey doe?
And why are you using tools of the misogynistic patriarchy anyway?”
– kfg
How did I move any goalposts? Neither party should be in control of the other.
To guess the answer regarding goalposts: they need to move as the “uprights” are phallic reminders of centuries of males oppressing females. Not to mention “putting it through the uprights” implies a woman is in a sexually submissive posture passively awaiting male scoring action. Finally, sports analogies are right out because females do not comprise at least half the team. And if they did comprise half the team they’d still be paid less.
tl;dr: v. feels the goal posts need to move

For that to be true you must impose your will on men first, then when 90% have been eliminated as you desire, you can pretend to be “equal” with the survivors.
You Marxists are a bloody-minded lot.
Any time a woman decides that some man has “imposed his will” on her without her permission she can call up men with guns who will come and impose her will on that first man, no questions asked.
This is the reality of the Duluth Wheel. This is the reality of what the Manbooby troll wants, to be “equal” and yet have a means to force that equality at gunpoint.

Getting one like V. to explore the origins of misogyny, much less misandry, is a fruitless task. As Rollo said there is an ego investment that is a significant barrier and the investment is probably a buffer against some level of personal culpability in the formative experiences that make up misandry.

That would be pointless, seeing that feminists aren’t doing that. At least on no fora I have stumbled across.
On the old RadFemHub I routinely saw feminists discussing how to quietely kill 90% of boy babies at birth in order to maintain the “proper” ratio of male humans to female humans in their ideal, Mary Daly approved, feminist future world.
Feminist Fascism at work, and not new at all, the idea of gendercide has been popular among feminists for well over 20 years.

Where drives the male feminist?
Many things, often a misguided sense of fairness coupled with a blind belief in the “blank slate” (i.e. “Men and women are just the same except women can have babies”), often a low self esteem that manifests as self-hatred or self-loathing, often Daddy issues – can’t help but wonder how many male feminists were raised by women who frivorced their husbands.
It’s not usually a position reached by reason. That’s why few male feminists can be reasoned out of it. It’s emotional, often all the way down.
“women have a very low biological impulse to understand or empathize with men or male suffering”
-Radium
Only if that suffering is a result of those men not being able to make women suffer – i.e. if they “suffer” and feel “oppressed” – because they no longer can oppress women.
“there are plenty of male feminists with this hatred of masculine energy”
-Radium
No. In my experience there are plenty of male feminists with hatred of some men’s need to treat women as lesser human beings; as inferior things to control.

Since you are dependent on men with guns being at your beck and call to grind any man under your foot at your slightest whim, I hope that you someday realize just what an ugly, hypocritical, Fascist monster you really are.
“misguided sense of fairness”
– Anon
You thinking a sense of fairness that includes men AND women equally, is “misguided”, is pretty much why male feminists think you are scum, dude.
Rollo, I did not look very far through the Vanir twtr feed, but it appears to be all retweets, is that correct?
If so, a distinct lack of originality is shown. Not a surprise, really; blindly repeating talking poits with no attempt at communication is pretty standard for Fascist feminists.
@ Vanir
If treating men like equals – not as inferior things to dominate and control – somehow *ruined* you. That gives me about as much concern as slave owners going bankrupt because they had to free their slaves.

“Misguided sense of fairness” means that many men mistakenly believe in the blank slate, and they wind up believing that feminist Fascism is fair.
Vanir, your thinking that using men with guns to subjugate any man who offends you is “fairness” is why more and more people are realizing that feminism IS Fascism.
Feminists like your sisters at RadFemHub trying to figure out how to murder boy babies for the “crime” of maleness is another reason.
Veneer Only if that suffering is a result of those men not being able to make women suffer – i.e. if they “suffer” and feel “oppressed” – because they no longer can oppress women. Science tells us that women are not empathetic towards male suffering at all, but since Fascist feminists routinely deny science I doubt that means much. Of course, the suffering of men thrown in jail at the whim of women would not interest any Fascist feminist at all, because feminists do not regard men as humans.

“I think most men really do want not only to have offspring but also want to be involved in raising them.” I agree. “I agree with your solution of “just don’t have kids” . . .” What? Where? When? The only solutions I have offered are to the marriage question, and I continue to be puzzled why that keeps coming up. It is not the OMGs who refuse to let it go. Things I have said (or at least intended to say): The solutions proposed to mitigate the risks of having and raising children do not do so. They amount… Read more »

“The sad part is Vanir has already won,the men are for the most part beaten down,with no hope left for ambition,say goodby to the garnish and amenities,initiative is gone,it is comply or die.”
If I have a criticism of Blaximus’s last comments it is that there may be rather fewer men that are capable of resistance than he might think.
“There is a spark of hope on this blog,a possible future for masculinity . . .”
I do not, however, mean to imply that there may not be enough men.
“Vanir (@85) . . . Open your mind.”
Fear is the mind killer. There is no point in appealing to its mind. It is dead.
Back to the OP, which is surprisingly applicable considering Vanir’s appearance here: Very good lesson here in regards to correcting women. Negotiating desire = trying to inform Venir about TRP and thinking that anything will sink in. Negotiation includes logic. It’s literally impossible. IMPOSSIBLE. Desire can’t be negotiated. We can only truly correct women by taking independent action as men. How? Don’t give women what they’re not entitled to. Whether that’s sex, a committed relationship, a child, marriage, or any form of interaction that involves you (a man) at all. Women need to be corrected by understanding FIRSTHAND that men… Read more »
“I do not, however, mean to imply that there may not be enough men.”
Definitely more than enough to get the job done.
I have often wondered what happened to the young men,that used to enter the trades to become masters,and usualy came to the conclusion that the economy,tech,teaching priorities in schools,negative media propoganda…..this was the problem. I had never even really considered gender dynamics,feminism,fi primacy,I being the mysogenist that I am always dismissed them as a bunch of quacks,witch of coarse they are it just never crossed my mind that so many people by into their bullshit.

Dominance, leadership and control are 3 different things. There are many examples of dominant controlling men who are lousy leaders. They make bad decisions and enforce them on their followers, leading all to ruin. Talking general here, not just about male female relationships. Also, none of these traits is inherently bad, but if applied wrongly will lead to disastrous results, and that does indeed include abuse. I think, if you have to recur to abuse as a man to establish your leadership, then it’s no longer leadership. Either you don’t know what you’re doing and change or you are investing… Read more »

@IAS: “I thought you had been repeatedly suggesting that one of the solutions to the issue being debated between OMGs and YSGs is simply to not have kids.” The question on the table is how to have and raise kids in a two parent household while mitigating the risk to the father. I have accepted that question at face value and “Don’t have kids” is not in the solution set (it is in the set of facetious responses to an unworkable solution). However, not being legally named as the father, is. If the solution set to the question results in… Read more »
The west has a system that dispossesses a man of his children and hard earned wealth; the man is suffering, and demanding (or taking a position which demands) redress for this is not oppressive.

The current system is dependent upon our dependency on it. If we were to all become farmers and be able to feed and clothe ourselves as we once were, it would cease to exist. It is a man-made perversion of God’s intended life for us, which is further distorted by Eve’s greedy desire to have NOW what would normally take a lifetime to achieve.

If we’re going back in time (and give up any hope of our specie’s survival beyond Earth), better to go full paleolithic – before patriarchy and men had any control over women and their reproduction, at all. Hunter/gatherer societies favor a certain egalitarianism – and would not be so bad 😀
Someone controlling your reproduction Vanir?
@Kate – Pastoral fetishism is as limiting as it is laughable. Can’t turn the cucumber back into a pickle, sweetie. And when we were mostly agrarian, life was much, much harder. People worked from dawn to dusk, they were often isolated and had little hope of advancing themselves materially. Droughts, frosts, bugs, anything could ruin a crop.

It’s not a stretch to say that agrarian societies will have famines from time to time. As an aside, it… Read more »

Piss off vainier. By your rules you have no right but to self-identify. Thus you have no right to assign an identity to another you mealy-mouthed hypocrite.
Scribblerg’s discussion on Charles Murray’s Coming Apart is relevant. Charles Murray describes a situation in which the short term benefits of welfare for those with lower income is enough to destroy marriage, family, future job skills, and society. Those who were raised in higher income families require two incomes to maintain the standard of living in which they are accustomed. Therefore, their marriages are much stronger, and the outcome for their children is much better. It’s almost like we are living in two separate societies with very little interaction between the two. Those in the upper classes are liberal mainly… Read more »

“Sorry. There is no backing down as long as there are men who think dominating and controlling women is their masculine birthright.”
And yet you still say nothing about women who use their children to dominate and control the fathers of their children. Drop the equalitarianism bs, and start having honest discussions about what you really believe or just shut the f up.
@Radium They see poverty as being deprived of goods and services, when the reality of poverty has little to do with deprivation. Poverty is simply a measurement of income earned, and intentionally leaves out government resources consumed. Vagueness is used (by the left primarily) offensively, as in this case, to advocate for increasing govt. services for the privileged non-working lower class. Vagueness was used (by both left and right) defensively to redefine “unemployment” so that the incumbent could point to statistics or at least have most of the sting drawn from opponents’ attacks. Vagueness, of course, is simply a haziness… Read more »
