For the record I am not a proponent of "girl power". I am a traditionally minded woman but also one who knows how to handle a dollar. I aspire to be like the woman from the back half of Proverbs 31 in the Bible. Men have valued women with financial savvy for millennia. Financially responsible women are a positive reflection on the men they are with.
Few and far between. The trade cons and blue pillers all dream of finding a NAWALT. It doesn't exist. What's in the bible was before corrupt laws. Marriage meant a woman was property. Today, you are property.
]I have seen the firefighter example. That is not universally true, in fact it is the exception.

In my case I am an entrepreneur. I work for myself. So there are no quotas and no advantages. I have to compete for clients in the open marketplace. I have to work harder than men in some instances to establish the same level of respect in my consulting endeavors, there are no free lunches. I have no complaints about the landscape. I simply succeed under whatever circumstances exist, same as any other successful person.
There's nothing more red pill then entrepreneurship. Its truly creation of freedom. I would caution you with women. Its like Houdini. She'll come for the ride but disappear like a trick when things get tough.
]In my income real estate companies the renters and the marketplace determine what rents I can demand and under what circumstances. I prosper there as well because I know how to buy, hold, sell and negotiate for maximum profit & rate of return. The market is efficient therefore the fact that I am female has no bearing whatsoever on my results. My business acumen does. I am well respected by men who encounter me in both industries, FWIW.
True. But this doesn't mean it converts with dating and pickup. Unless you take a zero sum approach, pull or next. Constantly generate leads and new prospects. Most men are all smoke. No fire.
Plenty of men do care about a woman's education; her level of sophistication; her level of exposure to culture and the arts and travel, as examples. Your preferences are yours, and do not comport to all men, not even to all men here on SS.
Most men here or elsewhere cannot approach. Are suffering from approach anxiety and are chasing cratered SMV.
Many men do care about a woman's ability to support herself. Men also care about intelligence. Granted neither quality matters if you as a guy are looking to simply get laid and get on with it because you don't care how smart someone is if you aren't going to keep them around anyway. In that case perhaps the less intelligent the better, lol.
If man did care so much about the following, they wouldn't be divorced raped.
But for LTR, marriage, children and the like qualities beyond looks are important. Smart men want smart kids. That means they'd do best to find a smart woman to insure their kids are intelligent. Nevermind the fact that they would prefer to enjoy someone who is mentally engaging to pass their time with rather than a simpleton who has little brain power to contribute. Looks fade and the "wall" comes for each of us in time. Intelligence, humor, wit and social calibration outlast physical appearance over time and thus are important qualities. Maybe not to you at this juncture in your life...but eventually my wager is that you'll find inner characteristics gain importance as you gain life experience.
This is fantasy.
If you look at the RMG podcast, 99% of the pannel except for Rollo all got ****ed by divorce and women. Do you think the majority of men are pursuing women based on the qualities you Listed above?
A degree or amateur hour gov edu is mostly cultural Marxist jargon (outside STEM which women rarely pursue). The following pursuits of efu is sociology, cultural Marxist crap, women studies and gender studies. This weaponizes women. Worse, it promotes cratered SMV, trading her best years away chasing competition with the men for the corner office, getting baby fever, and having crazy student debt in a useless major.
What makes men and women attractive are not the same thing.
Her degree nor her career doesn't make my **** hard.
Nobody here is saying do it for women. Least of all me. I've worked the crazy work weeks like that, and supported my spouse and my 3 kids on my income alone and I risked getting fleeced via divorce (I wasn't fleeced because I was very prepared and extremely smart in how I negotiated my divorce with my ex)...so I've been there, done that and got the t-shirt.
I won't do it.
The reason 99.99999% of men pursue that which they do is to impress women's hypergamy. Its to promo provider male. Essentially, the mating call of the loser.
The sad thing is that this FEAR that many never married men have about marriage or a committed relationship (attribute it to hypergamy or whatever else you so choose) actually is itself a lie. Great relationships are possible and great relationships add a tremendous amount of value to a man's life. So the divorce rate is 50% (that is counting second, third, fourth and so on unions...it is NOT a 50% rate for first marriages - for first marriages the success rate is actually higher/divorce rate lower)...and then men scream well they aren't happily married but actually many are (again this does not serve the narrartive of men who for whatever reason aren't married and may be scared to marry.)
80% of divorce or More then 2/3 are initiated by women.
Statistics show married men live longer than non-married men, and married men have greater levels of satisfaction in their lives as they age. And women still typically outlive men even today. So you get the advantage of a companion and life mate, someone to care for you as you are aging, and someone who is going to be there until the end (statistically speaking), care for you and comfort you until death and then she gets to be the one who is alone in her old age, rather than the man. Marriage can be a pretty good deal for a man, if done well.
Sounds made up like women's sex drive magically increases as the wall hits. Source?
I've heard this nonsense before but I beg to differ. Women especially Western women are very hard on men and that ***** dries up after kids as her weight goes up.
Black pill thinking robs your life of meaning.
Like your divorce?
In the words of Tyler Durdan, "only after we lost everything, that we're free free to do anything."
Read beyond good and evil.
I heard Jordan Peterson say something wonderfully true today. He said "Life is a sexually transmitted condition which is 100% fatal 100% of the time." Think about that. Why live your life being a scaredy cat? You're going to die anyway at some point. Might as well seek a bit of meaning in the time we are allocated here. None of us know how much time we are alloted.
Which is why you a man hits on everything thin young fit attractive with a pulse. Smash or next set!
I don't need to get married nor do I require cohabitation to ****.
Jordan Peterson is bang on. Marriage is ideal for children. He also spoke about hypergamy on a rogan podcast.
He discussed engendered monogamy, not holding women at gun point for useless men. Its a society promoting marriage. Our society is collapsing. His push would negate the decay of society if advice was followed but it's not. So be it.
Face the world, shoulders back, head forward,and up.
12 rules and maps are fantastic reads. Peterson is a sage. He's brilliant but like all human beings, we all have an agenda. He has his. I have mine. Peterson is a trad con. He's a blue pill man.
How doea his wife upgrade from him? I saw a source state he makes 65k USD per month between business, books, YouTuber/Patreon, self authoring, personality test, etc.
The answer is, she can't or she would. Saldy!
As much as I like him, he was exposed by Rogan. He argues against equality of outcome which I agree with. He then disputes it in pair bonding, as for men banging all the women. He argues children. Its not in their best interest but women are discontent and bailing. Both are taught to want marriage.
If you were from the middle east, women cannot dress like *****s, drive, and you would believe multiple wives are cool.
Peterson is incredible. I like his message but, marriage is a bad game. I won't play it. Women aren't waiting for marriage.
Furthermore, new girl's are turning 18 everyday. I want them all.
Food for thought.
