Historically, game did not exist. Men of means who had resources were deemed the most attractive. Men wanted women with youth, beauty and fertility while women wanted men with power, social status and resources. Not coincidentally, the strongest men tended to have these qualities, so they also tended to be physically attractive, though older.
This formula worked well for 10,000 generations. It maximized the number of healthy offspring. Only with the advent of the welfare state and feminism did things get so perverted than men had to resort to playing mind games (i.e. game). Suddenly, women decided their men had to be prettier than they were, hence no man was ever good enough, and the hang-out-hook-up ho culture was born.
Once upon a time, a woman who married a man became his property. Should she cheat or leave him she would be shunned and likely die. Now, with 'equality', society and the family and household are based on the most unstable force in the Universe: whatever makes a woman happy. Equality only works if women are equally honorable. They are not. Want proof? Give a stripper $20 and tell her she owes you a table dance in the future. See what she does. Or try it with a maid or any profession. She'll call you the next day to tell you how she had to take her son to the doctor and how her aunt is visiting and how she has a headache. Honor is a male quality. Women are pay per view.
Thus, we see the collapse of society unfolding. 90% of divorces are initiated by women, who are rewarded for it. They decide that by taking half the nest egg (and destroying his retirement plans) she could 'have enough for us', meaning her boy-toy. Once women were handed lots of money (fueled by the housing bubble), they turned into men, and wanted sexy little play things. The Cougar generation was born.
This is what the central planners wanted. They fear nothing more than strong men rising up and wringing their little inbred, homosexual necks. When you want to overthrow a country, corrupt the women (Sun Tzu).
Therefore, without a legal contract called marriage, money absolutely trumps game, which was an unfortunate afterthought in response to the anti-family, anti-strong-male agenda of the central banks. However, the moment a man marries a woman, she gets all his money. Game over.
