I feel like you headed down the road of “your woman shouldn’t make more then you”
I’m damn sure gonna teach my daughter how to operate without a man, my son as well. I guess the structure of the house is down the drain by your logic.
This sounds like a problem for betas as much as I hate using that word. Women not wanting to settle is misinterpreted as having an "Ego".
I think Kevin provides catharsis for men with inadequacies.
Ok I see the pattern now. Somehow this conversation is taking place between your feelings and facts. This is what I mean by Men becoming more feminine and putting feelings where facts are. So far you've made slick comments about me directly as a person, which I have ignored, but TBH it comes off with female energy also. Like Samuels says. Shame, Insults, Guilt, and the Need to be Right. But I digress because this aint about you or me.
Let me try again.
Matriarchy is a social system in which females hold the primary power positions in roles of political leadership, moral authority, social privilege and control of property. While those definitions apply in general English, definitions specific to the disciplines of anthropology and feminism differ in some respects
Patriarchy is a social system in which men hold primary power and predominate in roles of political leadership, moral authority, social privilege and control of property. Some patriarchal societies are also patrilineal, meaning that property and title are inherited by the male lineage.
The argument has been framed that we have to chose between these two options.
I call that a false dilemma.
A false dilemma, also referred to as false dichotomy, is an informal
fallacy based on a premise that erroneously limits what
options are available.
This premise has the form of a disjunctive claim: it asserts that one among a number of
alternatives must be true.
Both Matriarchies and Patriarchies are forms of Hierarchies.
These hierarchies have developed over a millions of years based on competence and ability for survival.
In general men evolved to be better at hunting (more dangerous / men more expendable) and women evolved to be better gatherers (safer than hunting / women and children less expendable) by nature, physically / biologically.
These cultures still exist today in Africa, the Pacific, and South America.
Groups of people who have never seen a television or heard a radio.
If you were to visit them there are definitely traditional roles for men and women.
In certain areas of the World this is changing as Women and Men have undergone certain societal evolutions.
These evolutions have changed the hierarchy because we no longer have to go out and hunt dangerous animals or gather berries.
All I'm saying is these changes have an impact, and the traditional gender roles of the patriarchal hierarchy are changing to some form of hybrid (not a patriarchy or a matriarchy) and BOTH sexes are feeling it.
Some argue that its we as humans are simply doing what we have always done. Try to survive as best we can.
I agree with that POV.
What Kevin Samuels is pointing to are the women who are calling in who want it both ways.
They want all the benefits of the traditional gender roles w/o complying with said roles.
I wouldn't teach my daughter to "not to need a man" or "to need a man".
I wouldn't teach my son to "not need a woman" or "to need a woman".
I would teach them both to survive because none of us are an island.
I would teach them not the be a greedy selfish spoiled rotten trash human being who expect to get everything out of the world and the people around her while offering nothing in return.
Its about being a decent human being and having enough empathy for other people to not be a selfish arrogant jerk who looks down on 90% of the male / female population.
I would teach them a college degree doesn't make them better than the man that works at the sanitation department.
I would teach them that what's between their legs doesn't entitle them to anything from anybody.
I would teach her that hypergamy comes with a cost and that if she wants to shed traditional gender roles then she better let hypergamy go as well.
I would teach my son that hypogamy gotta go if he wants to shed traditional gender roles because his wife might end up making more money than him.
There is no place for men or women in a the world that the women who call into Samuels show want to live in.
Only users.
These people are terrible human beings.
The other thing is the Men who call in acting like *****es.
All feelings and no facts.
Crying about wearing suits and cutting hair not realizing that NOBODY IS TALKING TO YOU!
He's talking about "HIGH VALUE MEN" who (as defined by these women callers) are in the top 2% of all men for multiple years, making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, on career paths in the upper echelon of white collar Corporate America, working 80 hours a week, owning businesses, in a circle of other "high value men", wants a trophy wife who stays home with three kids and pays no significant bills, etc. etc.
If you aspire to be this "high value man" and think you don't have to offer anything (give up the Jordans and wear some dress shoes) then you Sir are exactly like those delusional women...delusional.
I've never wanted to be that guy so I had to get out of my feelings and realize Samuels message doesn't apply to me. I'm perfectly fine being "average" with my hair and my Jordans.
