After trudging through the comments on this roissy blog post (they can get quite long)-
http://roissy.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/reader-mailbag-marriage-independence-day-edition/#comments
I noticed that reader and fellow blogger xsplat had responded to one of my comments regarding my views on women's propensity to lie, even on anonymous surveys, about their sexual past.
A brilliant discussion regarding the nature of women in general ensued, and here are some quotes that back up what I have been trying to explain to people on here for years-
This was in response was to address the "high mindedness" that he perceives of people who fail (or refuse) to grasp the idea that women are STRONGLY guided by their biological imperatives.
He is essentially calling people out on the over emphasis of choice in mating dynamics. He is saying that it is more pragmatic to view women as amoral creatures who are tempered by the virtues that society attempts to bestow upon us rather than seeing them as virtuous creatures who "slip up" from time to time.
He goes on to say this about what should be done to in the Western sphere to bring balance back to men in regards to the sexual power of women:
As a Man, you are solely responsible for the outcome of your relationships. Ultimately, not every situation will work out, but it is up to YOU, the MAN, to take the lead. It is up to you to "train" and guide your woman to be the woman she is capable of being, to play on her biological and social drives which benefit you, and to suppress those that might work against you. Women seek to attach themselves to a man who is worthy of deriving THEIR identity from. You should strive to become a worthy man.
And now we look a bit deeper-
With this understanding also comes the ability to "create" a woman who is ideal for you. He also goes on to elaborate on "pulling a woman's strings" by embracing her dark side, and using your non-judgmental attitude to bring out her darkest sexual desires, which allow you to bond with her on a deeper level. When you know someone's secrets, it creates a level of trust that does not exist with other people.
Obviously, calling all women "devilish wh0res" is bound to get a kneejerk reaction, especially from the majority of men who do not wish to take that view. When you do, however, accept their true nature, these words do not assume the same negative connotation. They are only used as a sharp contrast to the standard pollyannish view of women as being inherently "good" and worthy of being afforded the benefit of doubt, or being considered "innocent until proven guilty".
My only wish is that we might have a few more people here on SS who were capable of articulating this point of view in such an eloquent and thought provoking manner.

If you want to read all of the blog comments it's a LONG read, but it would help you grasp the context a bit better. If you would rather not bother, I will sum it up:xsplat said:My view is that women are biologically constrained within bounds of what they can want, and have leeway within those bounds to excercise personal choice. I voice the “women are devilish *****s” point when people over-emphasise choice, and forget the base drives that persist. I’m very in touch with my base drives, and it irks me when people are so out of touch with their own that they project this sense of heady intellectual choice onto the actions of females, willy nilly. It’s more accurate and useful to view them as devilish *****s, who can at times excercise restraint, than to view them as upstanding citizens who can at times backslide. Because the emotional desires are primary, and the intellectualizing comes next, usually as rationalization for emotions.

As usual, people mistake pragmatism for hate. This is about understanding that an acceptance of the truth does not have to lead to misogyny-Actually, I do have an opinion on what would help western culture. Men need to stop trusting women. They need to learn that women are two faced and calculating, and that a women never knows her own motivations. Men need to start treating women as a devilish ***** to be emotionally enslaved for his benefit. They need to learn to be always on guard, and forever seeking advantage.
When men man up and fight the war of the sexes with panache and verve, there will be a reballancing of sexual power.
He goes on to share this nugget of wisdom:Also, you completely misunderstand my message about loving devilish *****s. You can’t seem to grasp Jungs notion of integrating ones shadow selves into ones full personality. Men certainly can love women, in the full light of the knowledge of their darker natures.
This is EXACTLY what I have been trying to tell people. His apparent attempt to make a distinction (madonna/wh0re) make his words a bit misleading in that it seems as if he is contradicting his view that all women are devilish wh0res, but it just goes to drive home the point that there are no absolutes.Madona’s don’t make better wives than women with a nasty streak. The nasty streak just has to properly channeled by her master – which any man should make himself into. Most men can master their women, given proper training. I think proper training for many of us might include spending time in SE Asia.
As a Man, you are solely responsible for the outcome of your relationships. Ultimately, not every situation will work out, but it is up to YOU, the MAN, to take the lead.

And now we look a bit deeper-
xsplat is fully aware and accepting of the fact that all humans are selfish at their core. It is this awareness and acceptance that allows a person not only to deal with people from a position of advantage, but to also "love" people who who they really are, which is "imperfect" when compared to the ideal that we are taught to believe exists.You see, people who don’t own their shadow selves are self-righteous, and incapable of loving imperfection.
To properly appreciate someone, you must see their shadow side, and know that in yourself is the same capacity.
In women always lies the capacity for cold calculating duplicity, infidelity, and random lust. To be devilish means to be two faced and manipulating. In all woman lies the capacity for *****dom. It’s only a matter of price, opportunity and gina tingle. All women are devilish, and *****s. This is their nature, and to deny it is to deny oneself the full capacity to enslave a woman. You can’t puppet a puppet fully unless you can pick up all of its strings – and women have devilish and whorish strings to be grabbed.
Good people refuse to pick up all of the strings, and they deny their own shadow material. They try so hard to be something, they lose a good deal of what they are.
