Women don't care about your struggles. They wait at the finish line and pick the winners

[RickTheToad]

The statement "Women don't care about your struggles. They wait at the finish line and pick the winners" can be interpreted as a reflection of evolutionary psychology and certain historical patterns.

From an evolutionary psychology perspective, one could argue that women, like all human beings, have been shaped by evolutionary pressures to seek out partners who display signs of being able to provide resources and protection. This is sometimes referred to as "mate selection strategy," which suggests that women are evolutionarily predisposed to be attracted to men who have, or are likely to attain, high status, resources, and protection capabilities. This would be linked to the "struggle" as a proxy for the ability to overcome obstacles and achieve status and resources.

Historical evidence might include the ways in which societal structures have positioned men as providers and competitors for resources and status. In many cultures, women's socio-economic status and survival have been linked to the status of their male partners, incentivizing women to select mates who have already demonstrated success. For instance, in medieval societies, marriage alliances were often about consolidating power and wealth, and these strategic marriages were often arranged based on the perceived "winner" in terms of resources and status rather than on mutual struggle.

In biology, the concept of sexual selection speaks to the idea that certain traits become more common not because they increase survival, but because they are attractive to the opposite sex. In many species, females select males based on certain desirable traits that are indicators of genetic fitness.

For a modern example, one could look at the phenomenon of "celebrity worship," where individuals (of any gender) may be more inclined to admire and desire individuals who have achieved a certain level of success or notoriety. While not exclusive to women, this could be cited as an example of people being attracted to those perceived as "winners" in society's view.

I'll keep it in mind.

Well, I did. And I came to the conclusion that, like all generalisations, there was a kernel of truth - there are plenty of women at the finish line (competing with each other) to pick the winners.
However, there are plenty of women who admire men who don't throw in the towel but struggle to improve themselves and to build a future, and these women want to join that man and make it their struggle together.
And there are plenty of women who enjoy throwing obstacles for struggling men and laugh when they give up.
And there are plenty of women who don't give a sh!t about men at all and only date other women.
And there are plenty of men who laugh at struggling men and profit from their desperation.

In the end, the struggle is yours. You have to fight it. You can sometimes find some support, but you have to do it yourself and in the end, once you reach your goal, you know who is there for you and who is there for what you represent. And the choice is yours.
