1. It’s good that the author wrote this post. You can’t blame her for being honest about reality. What she has stated is a fact.

2. Young men now are being ripped apart by contradictory messages. Women want “strong” men, i.e. men who are dominant socially. They also have had confusing ideas about what a man’s proper emotional health is supposed to be. Therefore a man is supposed to be “Strong but sensitive,” and men and women have different ideas about what sensitive means. To me as a male, a sensitive male is someone empathetic, careful of nurturing other peoples’ feelings. This isn’t the definition women have. To them, being sensitive means showering them with attention once in a blue moon.

3. Young men also suffer because they are still supposed to behave in a traditional manner, when the roles of women have changed completely. You are still supposed to be an independent provider, caretaker, and protector, despite the fact that your trustee has just as much wealth and access to self-improvement as you do.

4. If a young man doesn’t have a concerned father figure in his life he can develop in one of two ways. He can become insular, possibly develop Asperger’s and be limited in his romantic options no matter his courage, intelligence, wealth, etc. He can also take the route of developing into the “bad boys” women love so much; he will turn to criminality and shun legitimate achievement. This will win him points with women but will in turn expose him to extreme degrees of violence and the possibility of incarceration.

5. If an intelligent, motivated, successful young man becomes empowered with women and isn’t a criminal, thug, etc., then he is labeled a “sociopath” by conservative elements in society- primarily older guys whose relationship pressures were a little bit different. and don’t really understand the difficulties of dating young women.

Young men should understand that all of it- the feminism, the conservative “you should be chivalrous and a ready provider,” the whole “Girls like sensitive caring guys” model their mothers feed them, all apply to different generations and it behooves you to see them as shit tests to overcome.

Get on some seduction sites. Get some “game.” All of that works and over time you will naturally become self-improved. By your mid-thirties, you can be the alpha male you want and have your choice of brides, and this after a decade and a half of enjoying playing the field. It can be done, and any young man can do it. You have to channel what makes you strong. Don’t listen to women, don’t listen to older men. Listen to the experts, i.e. the guys enjoying their relationships in complete security and sexual fulfillment.
