A while back reader Looking for Zion had a great comment wondering why it is women seem to have such a preoccupation with complaining to men so much:
Yesterday I was listening to a blogger talking about that Antifa Girl, then I saw a video by Camille Paglia on how women need to stop blaming men. By the time I read this essay I was already wondering, Why do women blame men (for everything)?
I mean, for example, no matter how good women have it here in the US, it’s never enough. They say, “We still have far to go.” What the fuck does that mean? They’ve achieved everything except becoming President and Vice-President – and only failed at that cause the worst possible candidate was put up. They’re astronauts, brain surgeons, CEOs, soldiers, pilots, MMA fighters…. I mean, short of a penis, what are they really missing?
Then I read this essay and it dawned on me: Women are biologically programmed to blame men for any and all perceived failures or shortfalls, because for millennia they have depended solely upon men (at the societal, tribal, and family level) for everything, particularly their very survival.
Whether it’s the nagging wife blaming her husband for her unhappiness, or the feminist harpy blaming men for WHATEVER, it is in female DNA and thus beyond their control to stop blaming “men” for anything they perceive to be wrong (in the absence of men standing firm and telling them to STFU). Males are always the scapegoat because men, until recently, were always the protectors and leaders of the female species.
When I woke up this morning, that realization led me to connect another dot: The patriarchy is not some ephemeral construct, or a male conspiracy. The patriarchy is IN WOMEN’S DNA.
From the time that the first single-celled creatures sprang forth from the waters of the Earth, life evolved toward the creation of homo-sapiens. Billions of years of genetic code formed a male dominant human dynamic that feminists and cultural Marxists have tried to re-engineer for a comparatively measly 50-60 years. But social engineering can NOT overwrite biology.
So good luck trying to “smash the Patriarchy” ladies, because the patriarchy is inside you. It was a survival mechanism selected for over eons. The patriarchy will always be there, like a splinter in your mind – unless and until enough time and genetic mutations have passed after men as a whole have given up and let you completely rule the world however you see fit.
With this, Zion is coming into an understanding of the evolved psychological underpinnings of intersexual relations. Women’s innate predilection to complain is just one aspect of women’s evolved nature that socialization or, if you like, “higher order thinking” finds ways to cover up, but never really change. Whether it’s women’s capacity to move on from a former lover (War Brides), women’s subconscious shit testing for men’s fitness, or the uglier aspects of Hypergamy, the underlying motivators for much of what we dismiss as ‘women just being women’ is rooted in how they evolved to interact with men.
Recently I cam across a video of Jordan B. Peterson explaining the evolutionary logistics involved in women’s sexual selection process. You can watch the video here, but the short version confirms exactly what Zion is coming to realize; the seeds of Patriarchy is literally written into women’s DNA, and by extension into larger human society’s social and intersexual make up.
Women’s sexual selection, women’s Hypergamous sexual strategy (Alpha Fucks / Beta Bucks), is what creates the condition of the male dominance hierarchy. By the social extension of this hierarchy, based on women’s evolved conditions for male Hypergamous acceptability, we see what perceptually looks like Patriarchy. Indeed, this has been the dominant social order – with women creating covert personal and social contingencies to exploit it – up until the time of unilaterally female-controlled hormonal birth control and the subsequent sexual revolution.
As Zion noted, billions of years of genetic code formed a male dominant human dynamic that feminists and cultural Marxists have tried to re-engineer for a comparatively measly 50-60 years. And it’s correct that social engineering cannot overwrite biology. However, that isn’t to say that social and scientific engineering can’t give women more control over their sexual selection process as well as making every effort to absolve them of the responsibilities associated with this new control. If I disagree with anything Peterson asserts in this video it’s that our social order for the last 60-70 years has been one founded on unfettering and insuring women’s sexual strategy and applying the consequences and costs of women’s control over it directly to men. Presently, we live in a feminine-primary social order, but it’s founded on the default presumption of an oppressive, inherently sexist, misogynistic Patriarchy that still clings to a social contract that hasn’t existed since the time of the Sexual Revolution.
Our feminine-primary social order is a reflection of how intersexual dynamics have shifted to favor the female and the female sexual strategy. The male dominance hierarchy and the qualifications of it are still dependent upon women’s evolved Hypergamy, only now, in light of how women have been insured against any real liability for their sexual selection choices, the prioritization of those hierarchal qualifications have shifted. There is still a “patriarchy” created by women’s sexual strategy, but now this male dominance hierarchy is primarily founded on the Alpha Fucks side of the Hypergamous equation.
Evolution of Complaining
The fact that complaining seems to come so natural to women is something we kind of take for granted, in fact so much so that we will make jokes about it and think nothing of it. We can interpret this also from the ‘men display, women choose’ principle. There is an expectation that men will qualify themselves for a woman’s intimate approval – whether or not they do so is irrelevant, it is women’s expectation of performance from men. Men being innate idealists, as well as deductive problem solvers, it only follows that men (majority being Beta) would make their best efforts to solve women’s problems as a primary element of their sexual strategy. The deductive logic is: Solve a woman’s problems and in exchange she will reciprocate with her intimacy.
This, in a nutshell, is what constitutes most men’s Game in their earliest attempts to get with a woman, and really why wouldn’t it? Boys are taught a default deference to “respect” the female sex from an early age. This deference is where the expectation of performance begins, and taken to the extreme it can end up as the Savior Schema and expectations of women reciprocating in Relational Equity. This is where many Betas have their ‘game’ disillusioned for them. They see the guys who do not perform for women in a direct manner being rewarded with intimacy while they are shamed for their ‘Niceties’ – the behaviors they’ve always been taught will endear women to them – and shamed for expecting intimacy in exchange for solving women’s problems.
But really, what is women’s complaining about? The facility with which women will complain to men makes evident their need for security and this security need flows from the provisioning side of Hypergamy. As I’ve said many times before, Hypergamy is rooted in an existential doubt – is this guy the best she can do? It’s important to put this doubt into context though; bear in mind that there are two sides to Hypergamy – short term sexual, genetic optimization (Alpha Fucks) and long term security, safety and parental investment optimization (Beta Bucks). Both sides of women’s pluralistic sexual strategy always have doubt attached to them. And as Zion implied, even when women are assured of security that doubt still persists.
When we consider women’s subconscious need to shit test men we also need to see that women’s complaining is part of her subconscious attempting to reconcile this doubt with a man she’s invested herself in. It is indeed written into women’s mental firmware that men are to be looked to as the problem solvers.
A while ago Deti had a great comment on one of Dalrock’s posts:
Some of the best depictions of shit testing and comfort testing in media are in Mad Men, where Betty brings some concern to Don. Some concerns are serious; some are frivolous and trivial. Almost all the time, Don faces her and says something like “Bets, you’re tired. You’re upset. And it’s all understandable. It’ll be OK. Just go get some sleep, and we’ll figure it out in the morning.” And that’s all Betty needed to hear. Don has it under control. He explains to her what’s going on, and says he (or they) will get it taken care of.
That’s passing comfort tests with flying colors.
A shit test is depicted where Megan (his second wife) is cleaning their apartment in her bra and panties. She taunts him, saying “you can’t have any of this”, while on hands and knees in a clearly sexually provocative position, all the while looking back at him to gauge his response. He then proceeds to pull her to her feet, kisses her, and has sex with her on the living room floor. She willingly submits to him.
That’s passing a shit test with flying colors. And that really is a shit test – she’s being a total bitch to Don and stating a literal challenge to his masculinity. It’s “I’m here, calling you less than a man and depriving you of something we both know you want. You don’t have what it takes to stand up to me. What are you gonna do about it?”
You cannot make a woman “Happy”, however, this does not preclude a woman’s innate need to see you as either a confident problem solver (as in Draper’s exchange with Betty) or a guy who “Just Gets It” (as in the shit test example with Megan). I believe Deti is correct here, but I think we can make a distinction between a woman’s need to test for a comfort versus a shit test of sexual selection.
I would argue that a comfort test comes from women’s deep need for security in a chaotic world. A comfort test, and I would include complaining and nagging in this, is rooted in a woman’s Hypergamous need of certainty and consistency in provisioning. A persistent complaint is really a cry for security and confirmation of a man’s competency. Male dominance will always require a superior competency in virtually all matters. That may not be realistic or pragmatic, but it is the expectation, and this need for competency finds its roots in men understanding and accepting their Burden of Performance.
A shit test, on the other hand, is a challenge of a man’s savvy with regard to reading, interpreting and acting upon a woman’s covert communications of sexual competency. Shit tests, even subconscious or unintentional ones, are initiated to gauge whether a man Just Gets It with regard to a woman’s sexual subcommunications. It is a test designed to determine a man’s Alpha potential and his capacity to push past his social programming and go after (even physically) what he wants sexually – hopefully that’s the woman giving him the indicators. It is a test of a man’s capacity to understand that the Medium is the Message.
One reason that Amused Mastery is such an effective PUA technique is because – when understood and applied well – it serves to satisfy both sides of these tests. It implies competency in both problem solving and sexual viability.
Lastly, I should also point out that both of these tests of competency are part of women’s evolved, psychological firmware. Women can certainly deliver these tests with malice, intent and forethought, but as to why these tests would be significant from an evolutionary perspective, only her subconscious is aware of it. Both tests have the latent purpose to establish a man’s competency in either the Alpha Fucks or Beta Bucks aspect of a woman’s Hypergamy.

@ Looking for Zion Swallowing the Red Pill presents a desperately needed alternative for all men. Currently the FI rules thought processes and dictates without opposition. In a perfect scenario enough males would gain exposure to red pill thought, and society would quietly do a 180 without even realizing what happened. I don’t think men can ” fight ” their way out of this nightmare. As Bruce Lee famously said, we need to practice ‘ the art of fighting without fighting ‘. Regardless to how dire things appear, a vast majority of women want men to take back all that… Read more »

Also, based on how he has handled past guests who use pen names, I think… Read more »
@7thAnvil, I have reached out to Rogan in the past. I would definitely be open to talking with him, however, I kind of doubt he’d have me on for the same reasons he’ll never have Roosh or Cernovich on his show. He’s aware of the Red Pill and he was very eager to throw TRP under the bus when the Eliot Rodger’s incident went down. He’s got an open mind, but he knows how his show’s audience will take TRP.
I’d go on in a second, but he keeps TRP at arm’s distance.

“I’d go on in a second, but he keeps TRP at arm’s distance.”
Yes, but Peterson is different — he’s a public figure, not in manosphere, not “really” red pill (some of his ideas are) in terms of his associations, and so on. Rogan won’t touch the manosphere with a ten foot pole for the reasons Rollo cites, I am pretty certain.
He’s wary of any guy calling himself Red Pill. RP has been distorted so much in the MSM that it’s almost synonymous with neo-nazis now. Rogan wont take a chance that some alt-right guy with a political agenda calling himself Red Pill might get on the show. He also seems to think TRP is synonymous with homicidal/suicidal spergs like Eliot Rodgers. I think he equates TRP with the same ‘angry incel loser’ trope that RSD and a lot of others do today. Even David Rubin won’t go there. Whenever he has Cernovich on it’s all politics, free speech and SJW… Read more »
IQ is one of those things. It is important and does limit us but it probably ain’t as important as some folks think. Lestwise not in practical terms.

“RP has been distorted so much in the MSM that it’s almost synonymous with neo-nazis now.”

@kfg
“There have been NBA players under 5’5″.”
What difference does that make? What’s the shortest this year? 5’8? 5’9? Still my point stands the same. One short dude doesn’t make height less important in basketball, and saying height is a major factor doesn’t mean no short guys can play in the NBA.
“You couldn’t even list who they are, thus collecting and averaging their IQs would present something of a problem…”
What is your point? From the data we do have, the higher the iq the higher socioeconomically someone is on average.
“What difference does that make?”
That depends on whether or not you live in a universe where accuracy makes a difference or not.
I just came back from a ride on a neo-Edwardian bike. Edwardian bikes have won the Tour de France. That says nothing about the advisability of riding such a bike in the TdF today.

OK. Assume my comment had 5’9 there. My argument is still the same. That’s the reason you avoid adressing it.

I guess we’ll have do go with your opinion then, top kek
FWIW the whole IQ issue isn’t even controversial anymore for those who study in this field. Only in pieces written by journalists(lol) you’ll see it presented as such.
“My argument is still the same. That’s the reason you avoid adressing it.”
I did not address your argument because I did not wish to. I addressed the points I wished to address.
IQ is a statistical entity that has predictive value for other statistical entities. Demographics correlated to other demographics.

“I did not address your argument because I did not wish to. I addressed the points I wished to address.”
LOL. Thanks for the height correction then.
Anyway, I has to go to sleep. I hope you had a cool 4th if you are in the US. gn
“LOL. Thanks for the height correction then.”
That isn’t what I corrected. You seem to be laboring under the misapprehension that because I found your argument flawed that I was negating the validity of your conclusion, but one may formulate a bad argument for a valid conclusion.
“I hope you had a cool 4th if you are in the US.”
I dressed up in Lobsterback colours and rode my bike while singing Scotland the Brave. I may have been publicly politically incorrect.
I haven’t argued against the research but the tactical reality on the ground is a lot different then the dipshits doing research
” . . . the tactical reality on the ground is . . .”
. . . not a statistical entity. But there is considerable confusion these days between data sets and people.
Can,t say much about IQ, one thing I’ve noticed the more money people have the stupider ways they have of spending it. And the higher the arogance level, arogance and stupidity is a bad combo.
Another funny thing about the high IQ folks is they seem to not play well with others and are constantly pissing people off,seems sorta dumb to me,just sayin.
A while back I wrote about how my water front neighbours weren’t doctors and what not. They were basically all blue collar guys with business. Clearly not dumb guys but not high iq types either with the lake house and those neighbours being in a super zipcode that makes most super zipcodes look like Detroit
Which to me devalues the value of having a high iq

To my mind, it’s no surprise that most men haven’t been able to adapt to this very well in such a short period of time, while women have moved along quickly. After all, women simply had the chains on their long-standing fantasy (whether that makes them happy or not — it tends to not, in the long run at least) released, whereas most men had the entirety of human sexuality turned upside down by having the opposite sex have its sexuality unleashed in a way that is contrary to the evolved constraints on that sexuality.

At the risk of repeating myself you should listen to Dr JP discuss IQ.

In terms of looks as a man sees them, I’ve been told that my looks are a 5…yet somehow I manage to get lots of IOIs from hotties. …then there’s the old troll… Read more »
Looks do matter under average circumstances. He he hee.
At minimum, ” a look ” matters.
Not many abject slobs out in the world with top level game, so they benefit from doing whatever they can to improve their looks. Because for them it will matter greatly.

The findings appear to contradict the widely-held belied that women delay the use of IVF as they put their careers before family”

IQ matters a lot if you want to earn a PhD in physics from some top ranked nerd academy
It matters a lot less if you want to kpen your HVAC shop and make a couple hundred k a year

If you’re competing with YaReally, you need top level game…with the average good looking loser, your game just needs to be better than his by a hair.
a little bit of game goes a looooong ways
@SFC Ton
You overestimate physicist income:
“California-based physicists earned average salaries of $104,550 per year. Physicists who worked in Louisiana earned the highest average annual wages at $157,970. Those who worked in New Mexico earned $97,530 per year, while those who worked in Maryland made $131,600.”
Everyone personally needs a HVAC tech now and again. Physicists, not that in demand.
@Eh
Physicists who bring in a lot of research grants can earn stipends from those grants and supplement their income. Some of them become entrepreneurs and others obtain patents on their inventions and sell the patents.
Eh: “You overestimate physicist income” I think the point was you don’t need to be a physicist to make a couple hundred k a year, not that physicists make that much. Think author Gladwell mentioned IQ in one of his books (Outliers, if memory serves). He found that for the highest levels of success an IQ of about 115 or so matters, but more than that didn’t really correspond with a greater likelihood of success in life. Social IQ mattered of course. I tested high when I was young and have lived long enough to see what happened to most… Read more »
@dr zipper @habd – I was totally on board with your comment until the ‘hotty with a differential calc exam” lol, indeed lol… love the sperg bait… but i just can help myself…lol so, here goes… How’s that FI treating you…lol… AWALT… IF… your average hotty around you tells you (or you somehow believe it’s true = beta/WK = FI in play…) that she is more concerned about her calc exam than how she competes in the SMP (= her cute outfit…) then she sees you as ‘not an alpha stud’… bc you are not someone she is trying to… Read more »
habd – not sure if I’m a ‘sperg’ or not, but can’t rule it out completely if my urban dictionary is up to date
great insight about her focusing on non-sexual stuff as an IOD (Dis-interest); might be the flip side of why the man — for pick up game — is encouraged to sexualize early and often to put and keep her mind in that space
and the neg… just my style, consider it stolen, thanks
“… when the average hotty is more worried about her outfit looking cute than whether she can ace that differential calc exam?…”
Second hottest girl at my college didn’t have to worry about it. She was a math whiz. The annoying part was that she took it as an elective. She was a music major.
She dressed decently, but simply. It was the third hottest girl who never seemed to do anything but model outfits for the campus. The hottest girl was jeans and flannel shirts.

There was an old saying “the clothes make the man”. Not an old saying but should have been, “the woman makes the clothes”.
Only men can tailor clothes with regularity… Women can darn and hem.

Aggresion and competency
@ anon01 So just for argument’s sake. let’s say a man has an IQ of 140. What does this mean to your life? And lets’ say there are 2 men, both with 140 IQ’s. One of them is very successful and the other is a bum sleeping on park benches. What does any of that mean? And say there’s a Wall Street Hedge Fund manager with an IQ of 115. And last year he cleared 750,000,000 at his firm, pretty much single handed. Is that man somehow ” overperforming ” given his number? You know what a high IQ is… Read more »
@ rugby11
That dude in the video, lmao, he’s not aggressive. He’s an asshole that happens to be aggressive about being an asshole. Hiding behind his age is a pussy move, he has a mental issue and probably has had it all of his life.
Fuck him and his watch.
Fuck him and his watch.
LOL Blax. “My very aggressive diver watch”. What a classic poser tell. He hasn’t even done enough homework to know better than that.
Cernovich once did a piece breaking down how to judge a man’s status by his watch. My response was:
I don’t wear a watch. That’s what I have people for.
@Blax So just for argument’s sake. let’s say a man has an IQ of 140. phtttt…140…lol… I always say that dudes should never, ever pedestalize women at any time under any circumstances. I’m going to have to amend that statement to include that men should never pedestalize other men under any circumstance either. that’s kind of the definition of MPoO…lol… And pointy headed high IQ types that can recite chapter and verse of outdated traditional econ models are a part of the problem, because hey, they’re smart so we should all listen to them. i hate that shit…lol… you know… Read more »
“To my mind, it’s no surprise that most men haven’t been able to adapt to this very well in such a short period of time, while women have moved along quickly. After all, women simply had the chains on their long-standing fantasy (whether that makes them happy or not — it tends to not, in the long run at least) released, whereas most men had the entirety of human sexuality turned upside down by having the opposite sex have its sexuality unleashed in a way that is contrary to the evolved constraints on that sexuality.” Not to nitpick here, but… Read more »
Höllenhund if the rational male had up votes per post, your last comment would be getting triple digits. thanks for your contributions.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on5Rn_JNl7s Höllenhund “Not to nitpick here, but I don’t think the issue is that men are somehow intrinsically unable to adapt, rather that the entire social structure is invested in them not adapting, and thus sabotages male attempts at adaptation at every turn. That’s why we see constant and vehement opposition to MRAs, MGTOW and PUAs, whom all represent such attempts. That’s why we also see heavy-handed blue-pill feminist/tradcon attempts to manipulate and indoctrinate men from childhood. This probably stems from the traditional gynocentric assumption that women fundamentally lack agency while at the same time are entitled to male protection… Read more »
@Blaximus I’m sorry, I’m not really into typing a lot of things, especially if you can google them easily. I generally appreciate your comments, so, since you asked, I’ll answer. But, please after reading my comment just assume I’m wrong and let’s leave it at that. I mean, you can-of course-comment, I just don’t want to be viewed as rude for not answering. – – – – – – – – For starters the average iq in the USA is 98. All of these examples you gave me have higher than average IQ. How many people with an iq of… Read more »
“Many men are blamed for being men and new moral rules and structures are built around protecting the women banging the men who aren’t being indoctronated into that belief structure with what is defined as god and faith.” It’s funny because the old guard used to attack Alpha fucks knowing the disastrous effects they would have on society (just look at the tongue lashings given to the Beetles, Sinatra, Elvis etc. back in the 60s). Now that the FI is well and truly entrenched somehow everything is the fault of the Beta Bucks, the poor sods are even at fault… Read more »
High IQ people are the beasts of burden in STEM and they aren’t compensated adequately for their work. They get some payback by programming robots that put lower IQ people out of work. Robots put pressure on the human gene pool to increase its IQ. Just like competent physical training results in greater fitness, competent mental training results in greater intelligence. High IQ, I suspect, correlates with low social intelligence. High IQ people likely look down on lower IQ people and avoid socializing with them and just don’t get enough practice of their social skills. Obviously, if high IQ people… Read more »
Two PHD physicist neighbors of mine are average suburban guys, income and otherwise. One’s a cell phone EE designer and the other is a nuclear chief engineer…recently laid off. Both feel they should be earning more.Yeah, he can get another job quick, not around here.
Oh, both are one trick ponies. No dirty work, betatized. Nice guys, tho. Good neighbors.
Now you’ve got me doing it–confusing IQ with intelligence.
“IQ score is a standardized way of comparing this ability with the majority of people the same age as you are.”
http://www.free-iqtest.net/what-is-iq.asp
Young people are stupid compared with older people.
IQ is just a thing. It’s a characteristic of you like anything else, it is a part of you and it forms you, but it doesn’t determine your outcomes in life, at least not in a linear way. I am ~135 (tested either side of that). So nothing special, really, and nothing like a physicist typically has, but higher than what many others have all the same. And it’s also higher than most of the people I work with, but that doesn’t really “help” me in terms of competing with them, because competing with humans involves will, discipline, effort and… Read more »
@palma “High IQ people likely look down on lower IQ people and avoid socializing with them” Not true. I joined Mensa at 16 with an IQ at the time of 156. So, to rebut my point, you bring evidence that high IQ people join an organization that excludes low IQ people? No member of Mensa that I know of ever admits it outside of the circle or on a CV. Why would you put that on a CV? It’s not an achievement or credential. Also, if your social circle includes low IQ people, admitting to joining MENSA would be a… Read more »
‘A lot of dudes with high IQ have no game/are fat/got fired.”
A lot of dudes with meh IQ have no game either. A lot of dudes have no game, period.
In my years, I’ve known…probably…a handful that were fired for incompetence. The system is built for a minimum intelligence with double/triple fail-safe devices/policies.
The overwhelming majority are fired for flaky personal behavior not poor performance.
I note that the MENSA newsletter has a section for members to write in the completely idiotic things they have done as “smart” people. ASD: “It’s not an achievement or credential.” I have never joined, despite a certain amount of pressure, because I have never been smart enough to see the point of it. I have at times been a member of various interest groups, because I shared that interest. Neither my IQ nor yours is a specific matter of interest to me and I am more likely to find an otherwise random smart person insufferable than I am to… Read more »
I have never joined … because I have never been smart enough to see the point of it. Options… – these folks are *SMRT* and know that a Mensa meeting is a much better place to pickup chicks than the chess club gatherings – it allows folks who would otherwise have limited social badges to display membership in an exclusive society, thus propping up a weak ego with external validations But seriously, when I hear people drop the ‘when I was in MIT’ or ‘when I was on Wall Street’ it just makes me think they’re trying to impress me.… Read more »
Competent subcommunication works. Suddenly you’re being pinged from multiple sides with IOI’s; in the airport, at the laundromat, even by higher IQ girls in snooty classical music venues,
It’s sort of like this.
