This week there’ve been a rash of articles all outlining the latest statistics about marriage in this decade. US marriage rates are at a 150 year low and, if you believe the all-female article writers, it’s of course men’s fault for failing to be marriageable. These articles are referencing a study published last week titled Mismatches in the Marriage Market and this study reveals large deficits in the supply of potential male spouses. One implication is that the unmarried may remain unmarried or marry less well‐suited partners.
That’s right gentlemen, you’re unmarriageable and the ladies want you to shape up. If you want to experience marital bliss – despite all the inherent personal dangers for men in today’s “marriage economy” – you must make yourself “economically attractive“:
“Most American women hope to marry, but current shortages of marriageable men — men with a stable job and a good income — make this increasingly difficult,” says lead author Daniel Lichter in a press release.
The stats don’t lie and they are pretty bleak. More women are enrolled in college than ever before and more are expected to enter through the middle of the coming decade. Now, a degree doesn’t guarantee a woman a job, and it says nothing about the majors and job sectors women prefer, but a college education does reinforce the idea that women are entitled to marry an economically attractive man who himself has an education and enough aspiration to make something of himself to become marriageable.
That’s some real shit right there and we’re not even half way through this post. We’ve gotten to the point where the truth of the past five decades is apparent; gendered politics has actively, openly, disadvantaged men in terms of education. Whether this hobbling of men is via educational dispensations (Title IX) or social conventions (divorce, child support, Duluth model feminism) the outcome is now unignorable.
In most western societies today there is a separate standard of justice that applies to women. Women are receive far fewer consequences and are sentenced much more leniently than men for committing the exact same crimes. These are easily proven statistics, but even when they are brought to light the gynocentric social order doubles down and justifies them because, women.
My intent here today isn’t to depress anyone. Neither am I drawing attention to this because I’ve made a new turn to the Men Rights Movement. No doubt there’ve been many article already written about the female hubris inherent in these revelations – revelations the Red Pill community has been pointing out for almost two decades now.
The manifestations of about 50 years of social changes produced by a feminine-primary social order are unignorable. Even mainstream media sources are finally seeing these stories as the red meat du jour for the masses now. A lot of the Red Pill principles and I and many other men in the Manosphere have been drawing attention to about intersexual dynamics are now coming to light in popular consciousness.
Aww Quit Complaining
Last year I delivered the State of the Manosphere Address, and in that talk I outlined the rise of what I saw as a new Gender War (or gender cold war). Naturally I was called a reactionary, and have been since described as “overly negative” even by the organization that asked me to deliver that speech. But yet, everything in that outline has come to pass in less than a year. Of course, the easy dismissal is to blame this on election year propaganda. More than one mainstream talkshow conservative has jumped on the Toxic Masculinity bandwagon, pointing out how the Left and mainstream feminism are one and the same.
However, there have been many swings of the political pendulum in the past 50 years. Conservative zeitgeists have contributed to the same feminine-primary social order that’s resulted in men being unmarriageable today. It’s just been good politics to appeal to the Feminine Imperative no matter what side of the political aisle you happen to sit on.
But I’m a man. I’m not supposed to be overly concerned with issues like this. As long as I’m measuring up to my Burden of Performance any marginal raising-of-awareness to truths like the ones above make me seem like I’m complaining. And that’s something men are never allowed to do. It’s a very effective way of silencing men. Get them to feel like they ought to silence themselves. Real men don’t complain.
Meanwhile, it’s Broke Men who are hurting American Women’s Marriage Prospects. My good friend Dalrock once wrote a series of post around the idea that feminism would be so much more successful if men would only cooperate with it. When women are unable to optimally complete their mating (and life’s) strategies it’s men’s fault for being uncooperative. It’s men’s fault when women’s life plans don’t come together as Sheryl Sandberg told them it would. It’s men’s fault when they won’t play the approved role they should when women hit their Epiphany Phase and their sexual priorities shift.
Confirming the Red Pill
If you needed a better illustration of the Solipsism inherent in women’s nature you’ll be hard pressed to find it on a bigger scale than the dozens of stories bemoaning the lack of marriageable men today. Furthermore, it goes to prove another Red Pill truth: as a man, women don’t care who you are as much as what you are. I’ve taken a lot of heat over the years over my assessment of how men and women have different concepts of love. Men love idealistically. I rarely get any pushback on that assertion, but when I layout how women’s Hypergamous natures predispose them to a concept of love based on opportunism men and women lose their minds.
Yet, here we are. Women enthusiastically proving my point for me without me having to do any heavy lifting. As women become more comfortable in Open Hypergamy we see this embracing of their nature proudly flaunted. Naturally women will double down on this.
“Of course women don’t wanna marry no bum!”
And then the Trad-Cons join the chorus,
“It’s men’s fault they aren’t measuring up to being the men all women are entitled to.”
There are dozens of studies that correlate divorce with women earning more than their husbands. In fact, women are reluctant to admit that they out-earn their husbands. Throughout the history of this blog I’ve shown the evolved reasons for this dynamic, but what the articles all dance around is women’s natural evolutionary desire for men who exceed them in all aspects. But because we’ve opted to believe in, and standardized on, social constructionism we lay all of that on “societal expectations” of men and women. In a future essay I’ll be defining how the cope of humans being ‘above it all’ in their evolved instincts is the root source of many deliberate misgivings about intersexual conflict. For now, understand that blaming any inconvenient intersexual truth on a nebulous “society” is the go-to rationale for a feminine-primary social order.
“If only men would evolve and rise above what society foists on them we women would be happy” versus “Men need to accommodate women’s success by making themselves more ‘economically desirable’“
And “Oh, but love is important too, *wink wink*.”
“Many young men today have little to bring to the marriage bargain, especially as young women’s educational levels on average now exceed their male suitors’,” Lichter says.
It’s interesting that some articles advocate for marriage as a “stabilizing force” in society, all while never (maybe deliberately) seeing the economic risks of disaster that the divorce industry incentivizes in women. There’s nothing stabilizing about promoting marriage between men you’ve deemed “economically unattractive” and women who feel entitled to a man who exceeds their Hypergamous expectations. There’s nothing ‘stabilizing’ about the incidence of divorce between couples where the man is unable to out-earn his wife.
Naturally we want to make this a ‘his‘ problem. He can’t get over the fact that she makes more, has more education, etc. He’s insecure in his masculinity and must feel threatened by Her success. Or it could be the fact that on an instinctual level he understands that it’s an evolved imperative for a man to provide for and protect his family. This is the fallacy of Rise Above It. No matter how enlightened and progressive we’d like to think we are nature drags us back to reality. It’s not a socially constructed problem – if it were it would be easily solved – it’s a human nature problem. Women reveal the true Hypergamous nature in articles like these. They want a man who they can naturally look up to, respect and admire. That’s the natural truth coming out, but they source the problem in a socially constructed fantasy that it’s men’s insecurities that are holding them back from completing women’s mating/life strategies.
Women don’t need to get married anymore. The average age of first marriage is hovering around 27 years old for most couples. Studies also show that more than half of young people in America don’t have a romantic partner. We’ve all but eliminated the Beta Bucks side of the Hypergamous equation for women. Open Hypergamy (and Open Cuckoldry) are the logical outcomes of this provisioning insurance we’ve made ubiquitous for women over the last 40 years. Yet, women still want to be married to a man who outclasses them in all areas of life. They feel they deserve that guy. Their hindbrain knows they do, but the nebulous society still encourages women to believe there’s never been a better time for them to be single. This is the message women are being fed as they complain about men’s not living up to being their “equals”.
Nearly half of working-age women will be single in 2030, a new Morgan Stanley study predicts, a demographic that will drive increased sales for companies in the athletic wear, cosmetics and clothing sectors.
The investment bank’s “Rise of the SHEconomy” report says 45 percent of working-age women between 25 and 44 in the U.S. will be single women in 10 years, Forbes reported.
Single women will drive the economy in the next decade and savvy businesses are already planning on exploiting this demographic. But yet it’s men’s fault for not being marriageable and/or avoiding marriage altogether?
Too many people think I’m down on marriage. Apparently 23 years of what most guys would consider an ideal marriage isn’t enough to convince them. Honestly, as an institution – socially enforced monogamy – I think marriage, based on evolved gender difference complementarity has been the foundation of the success of western culture. But maybe we’re at a turning point in human history where traditional marriage is left behind, replaced by feminine-primary polygamy with all its inherently violent risks. It seems we’re heading in a direction where we convince Beta men it’s in their reproductive interests to abandon their evolved need to be invested in their own paternity – and that attending to and raising the children of men that women selected before them makes them ‘better men’.
There’s a lot more to the anti-marriage reasoning than just the “losing half my stuff” arguments.
It really sucks for a guy like me who’s managed to make a Red Pill aware marriage work in spite of all this. Guys get confused. How can I be anti-marriage and still married? But it’s just that dichotomy that tells the you about the nature of what marriage has become for men today. The way we do marriage today has the potential to be the most damaging decision a man can make in his life. It may even end his life. But despite all that I still believe men and women are better together than we are apart. We still evolved to be complements to the other.
It’s the coming together and living together, and all the downside risks to men today that I have no solution for at the moment. Maybe it’s going to take a war or a meteor striking the earth to set gender parity back in balance, but at the moment there’s only a future of sexual segregation to look forward to.
“Because a good part of the “alphas”, or of the people with a strong need to picture themselves as alphas, finds it the best to do to reproach awoke men, telling them they are lazy, whiners, not real men and all, because (and here the feminine-primacy-boosting mantras are reinforced, as if they needed reinforcement) real men just face up to and take anything destiny, culture, the legal courts, and so on throw at them.” No. Not this.

” . . . women will have live in house husbands, and go fuck alpha’s when and where they want to.”
That will be a minority. The majority will have alphas who make booty calls when they are wanted and a number of orbiting choreplay husbands who are rarely and pseudo-randomly allowed into the house, like a slot machine that pays off in sexual attention. Just enough intermittent reinforcement to keep them coming back to mow the lawn.
To my mind, there are few options to returning the western world to a stable structure, and none of them are pills someone would willingly take. In fact, humanity does not seem to be evolved to persist with stable social structures. That could be due to hypergamy, but it almost doesn’t matter. The western world was not designed to survive the unbelievable levels of success it has enjoyed. But all other systems are not designed for success.

Is TRM the new Chan hangout?
There was a mini-flood of screeching MGTOW that dropped into Dalrock’s comment section earlier in the month. It’s died down now, perhaps some of them have drifted here.
A lot of them seem to be somewhere on the autism spectrum; the severe binary thinking that shows up in their emotional rants is one obvious clue, the near total inability to calibrate to anyone else is another clue.
The inability to engage in simple verbal communication using logic is another clue.

Rollo wrote above: “…as a man, women don’t care who you are as much as what you are…” and I came across that expression in the rationale male books I and II. I need to break this down to nuts and bolts: If woman cares (more) of WHAT I am, then I am a tool / means to an end for her to realize her goals, to provide for her whatever needs. If so, what’s the meaning of the WHO in sentence above?
Rollo? Anyone?

Anon may be burying himself under piles of verbiage, but two points do stand out for further consideration: 1) Feminism paradoxically has set MEN free, and 2) Women are foolishly kicking an own-goal by undermining the institution of marriage.
Regarding Rollo’s chart on college attendance, I’ll add that women may also someday be sorry they’ve gone all in on higher education — as students and as academics. Between the crippling tuitions, spurious research and ridiculous rhetoric, the college bubble looks ripe for a big bust.

Or that they will always play out well as a risk strategy. It’s one thing to be stuck in analysis, awareness and stasis. And it pays to have a payout at the end of your strategy. It’s another thing to have a good action plan for what… Read more »
Pinelero,
These days my burden of performance is to myself and myself only, society has little to do with it anymore. Once you adopt this mindset you will be very free but the catch is that underlying foundation society provides is gone and it makes things tougher short term but with the possibility of true mental freedom.
As to women, who cares , they can’t appreciate it anyway, use them and move on.
They all start out pretty much like this. Almost exactly the same.
Look inordinately powerful and life destroying to you?
What changes?
Is this a hb9 model or a landwhale?
Feminist, serial killer or submissive housewife?
In 16-20 years, how will men perceive her, and how accordingly, will they act?
“Being ” free ” means being like most women.”
Being free means choosing and pursing what YOU want to do with your life. Not on what you should/supposed to do. That’s living your life on other people’s expectations. #beta.
….Won’t stop other people for tryin’ shame you tho.
OMG = “lol @ banging old women”.
PUA = “lol @ banging bar sluts”.
MGTOW = “lol @ playing with yourself”.
@J “lol @ banging old ladies” There’s truth and misunderstanding here. First, there’s married goggles so that you see the girl you’re banging as she was when she was young. Then there’s the light’s out impact on eyes and wrinkles go away when a girl is lying on her back. Sure, it’s a fantasy. But if it makes you happy…. “lol @ banging bar sluts” lol, I don’t ever recall calling girls PUAs bang “bar sluts”…they’re just girls…but I do recall asking PUAs to come clean about how often they get dumped or how often they have to dump a… Read more »
@ Blaximus–If young men could tell the difference between a whore and a housewife, Rollo could probably shut down this blog and work on the next problem. As endlessly discussed, young women are emboldened to dress, act, and speak like whores. Young men are encouraged to accept this as normal behavior–be supportive, encouraging and non-judgmental. So, how, with all this camouflage could a young man be expected to know the difference? @ All, Marriage works for some men. TL/DR for most. Even, some of the Old Married Guys seem to be fuzzy on the details of wife versus concubine. Now,… Read more »
@theasdgamer “there’s married goggles so that you see the girl you’re banging as she was when she was young.” You’re the second guy to mention this “married goggles” phenomenon to me. But I wonder if its something some guys have while others don’t. What would explain guys cheating (or being very tempted to, but ultimately deciding not to go through with it, because honor or whatever) on their wives with younger attractive girls? “how often they have to dump a girl because she’s wanting a LTR” Its inevitable. Usually after 6 months. Sometimes sooner. sometimes later, depending on how often… Read more »
I stopped by over a cup of coffee to see if anything worth reading has popped up in the last couple of months.
It’s amazing to see all you people are still on here complaining about the same old stuff.
Regarding some of you thinking other people are masquerading as me on here.
Not possible.
There is only one Coolio – and I am The One.
I might have to start my own blog.
I could call it something like “The Beyond Rational Male for Extremely Superior Human Beings”.
The only problem with that is there’s only been about ten of us on the planet since the beginning of time, and the other nine spent their whole lives trying to catch up to me.
I don’t believe I’ve seen/read anything about the complaints regarding the wage gap. Apparently compensation has increased in equality. You got your wish girls.

There’s a lot more to the anti-marriage reasoning than just the “losing half my stuff” arguments. When I got divorced I didn’t lose anything, I was poor at the time. But my ex-wife immediately re-married within 3 months of the divorced being finalized. We were separated for a year which means she must have met her new husband within that time. He was older than her and she was nearly 40 I’d heard he was over 60 with 2 grown children who immediately suspected she was a gold-digger because he was very wealthy. My ex-wife wasn’t in it for the… Read more »
“Was the picture in the post of Cory the Alpha Buda?” Yes. He settled for less than his potential. But then again, maybe he didn’t do the work to have potential in the first, second and last place. Or stick to his purpose and mission. But he sure was cool at one time. The back story is probably interesting. Who knows? Does it apply to you? What are you going to do about it? If so, can we revisit what it means to be Alpha? No. That would be like beating a dead horse. Corey doesn’t change the discussion. He… Read more »

“Men love idealistically. I rarely get any pushback on that assertion, but when I layout how women’s Hypergamous natures predispose them to a concept of love based on opportunism men and women lose their minds.” Women love opportunistically. I’d argue that men also love opportunistically. The feeling of idealistic love comes from scarcity mentality mixed with blue pill conditioning. Roissy wrote: “A man loves a woman until she gains 50 pounds. A woman loves a man until he loses his job and goes unemployed for months on end.” The concept of idealistic love is part of the Matrix.

Novaseeker improvement and the state of “males” or men all needs reflection and a porn improvement, Dancing and fitness and gym all help me with that. According to TERRY GASPARD 1.Wait until you’re at least in your late 20’s to tie the knot. 2.Select a partner who you have both chemistry (physical and intellectual) and compatibility with (share interests). 3.Discuss expectations for your relationship with your partner on a regular basis. 4.Learn good communication and repair skills to manage conflict.

theredpillnewb “Was the picture in the post of Cory the Alpha Buda? If so, can we revisit what it means to be Alpha?” You’re probably just confused about what you think “Alpha” means… Alpha is as Alpha does… when one stops acting ‘Alpha” one ceases to “be” Alpha. Alpha is not a cliff vesting, or a certification that attained once is forever, like a college degree. Cory was Alpha because he displayed Alpha traits… when he stopped doing this, he stopped being Alpha. It’s a continuous recertification… File under B for “Burden”… [what “Alpha” is… https://newlyaloof.wordpress.com/2016/12/02/sentients-dynamic-passionate-authentic-framework/ ] OG Cory… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=968yNvFiVH0… Read more »

@ Rugby Your mental point of origin and frame….. Is best for your and her frame. She will be grateful and thank you in order for her best interest. Make order out of chaos for yourself, and enjoy the mystery of the feminine. It ensures complementary-ness. Otherwise your post begs for equalism. That is not normal order. It makes you and her neutered. Don’t do that. It is boring. And things will go downhill, until flat-ness. Order + mystery = liveliness with masculine/feminine polarity and preserves the erotic component in an LTR. A necessary component, which is implicit in a… Read more »
Speaking of making order out of chaos. That was Jordan B. Peterson’s purpose and mission. And so he worked on that to tame the demons in his head. Over and over. And it worked for a while. Until something happened. And then chaos ensued. And he tried to medicate it. And then got hooked on cheat code medicines. And then ended up in rehab. (Not that there is anything wrong with that.) But you can’t have all order, all the time. You have to have the strength, courage, mastery and honor to face uncertainly. And make peace with marriage or… Read more »

@SJF
You must see the irony here. The guy we’ve been calling the ALPHA BUDDAH turns out to be a beta loser with zero game. At a minimum there is some rich irony to this.
Because let’s be honest….we all see the irony that the male romantic interests in Eat Prey Love and Stella Got Her Grove Back turn out to be frauds using the old hags for their citizenship.
So a little bit of self reflection and a good laugh is deserved at least!
@Rabbi What you’re describing is simply society placing limits on a woman’s natural hypergamous nature. The orthodox jewish community shuns promiscuity and jewish women know that doing so would ostracize them from their friends and family. There is tremendous pressure placed on orthodox jewish women to get married and have children young. Where I live it is common for them to be married between the ages of 17 and 20 and have children immediately. Given this, there is no opportunity for young women to ride the cock carousel or even optimize for Alpha Fucks and Beta Bucks. Plus, their options… Read more »

“The guy we’ve been calling the ALPHA BUDDAH turns out to be a beta loser with zero game.”
It should serve as a cautionary tale. Not a big mystery that someplace along the line Corey was no longer the MPoO for Corey.
Divorce courts have been full of the formerly Alpha. Emphasis on formerly. Ever see what happens when the HS Jock gets the homecoming queen and they get married?

Thanks for breaking it down. That sounds about right, every woman is a star in her own TV show where everybody else is a cast for her own benefit. On global level you have a matrix of TV shows manipulating Men and other women and the reason the matrix hasn’t collapsed is because of blindness of Men to sacrifice everything for a occasional “cookie for a good boy”.

The JBP rehab left me thinking that no man is truly immune to hardship, he seemed to have most of his stuff sorted out.
Just goes to show the journey is never complete for a man.
Some of us are blaming modern men for women’s marital rancor. No. The problem is that masculine agency –as well as the requirements for its healthy evolution — has been institutionally devalued for some 50 years. As soon as you develop the dexterity to piss standing up, the village starts lecturing you about toxic masculinity. Girls are better listeners — they are our nation’s real leaders. Wouldn’t it be nice if they were in charge instead of those mean boys? Enjoy your Disney, kids! THIS one is about a super smart and funny girl and a super dumb and daffy… Read more »

Nobody here ever really liked JBP except rugby. He was like a seam busting on the misandric titanic. He only dated his wife, she has bigger arms than him, and he was handing advice out like Good’n’plenty on Halloween.
There’s Successful alpha, Unsuccessful alpha, Successful Beta, and Unsuccessful Beta.
There’s also the rest of the status hierarchy and the many geeks that claim it doesn’t exists.
You can have a thought that can be the thought of an alpha. But you can fail to become such an alpha.

“She wanted to know what I did for a living, I always told her I washed and vacuumed cars. She knew it was bullshit but she liked the fact I wasn’t going to play the income game with her either way, testing. I was at a table with another group of guys and the waitress asked us what we did for a living , I responded we bag dog food for a living laughing, she understood straight away my point but almost all the guys got annoyed because they just don’t get it.”
Nice. Well done.
