I've had an epiphany that OP is clueless on women and dating. LOL at these stupid theories by FA virgins.

Lol, I'm short (see stats) with above average facial aesthetics. I date short, petite women with above average facial aesthetics. Same goes for most short but facially blessed bros around. Face > height
And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods?

Just checked his channel and hes taken down the video I was talking about but there's still this one.



He also had another video where he spoke about being FA (without wearing any masks), but I cant find that one either.

Edit: he's now set the video to private. lel

OTHER THAN COMPANIONSHIP (WHICH IS NOT VALUED) WHAT DO WOMEN ACTUALLY NEED MEN FOR??

The key word is need. When you have access to food everyday, you become more selective about your pallette. However this doesnt mean you eat less, it actually ends up meaning you consume more calorie dense junk. The access is there for women. Marriage is dead, they earn enough themselves and we arent having children. Do you now choose the safe, boring baldcel who works in finance and earns a solid income or the personal trainer, bum chad with a big log and ripped abs?

OP does have a small point.

Wait a minute, so you don't wanna pay for dates, don't wanna be a provider, want a prenup, and say chivalry is dead but get mad because a woman can take care of herself and doesn't need you for sex either?

That's my point. If you are below 7/10, you would be better off in a society where women require somebody to provide for them.

People are always looking for a reason why their life isn't great, and they're always looking to put blame on somebody else. Here's the thing, you think that women don't want you because they're hypergamous and they have access to Chad tier men at their fingertips. But the truth is that women don't want you because you sit down on the misc and make posts like this--and you clearly probablyoozewith that mentality outside of the misc. An ugly mindset is like a pungent smell that you can't get rid of--hell, it's worse than smelling pungent. It permeates into every bit of conversation, and just pushes people away from you whether or not you like it. At least a bad scent can be somewhat forgivable if you're likable enough.

Every time you interact with a woman, you probably give off this extreme supreme gentleman vibe that just makes them want to turn you away.

You need to get off of the internet, go outside and live for a little bit.

Shutup, he is EXPRESSING HIMSELF and isn't deserving of your scorn. Personally, I think he's a very intelligent and articulate guy, has a cool sounding voice, and could make a good youtube channel if he found something decent to talk about that would garner more views.

However, now that women are choosing men based mainly on physical traits, they may not necessarily be choosing men who are intelligent or hardworking. Subsequently, because intelligence and discipline (which is necessary to be hardworking) are hereditary traits, humans will gradually become less intelligent and more lazy due to the aforementioned assertion.

It's over, boyos. The species is doomed.
similar to this profecy was actually stated by an local professor where I live, in our local newspaper. srs.

to cliff it:
-due to not being needing to have a man, women can chose more freely who to have sex with, and who to procreate with.
-this will lead to more "animalisitc" hiearchy of the most "potent" men to give offsprings.
-basically a sort of 80/20 rule.

true

but how does this parlay OPs point??

men are willing to provide the infrastructure women thrive off and many of them are overlooked. And no, its not as extreme as OP is suggesting but its hard to deny that hypergamy is a natural female reproductive strategy and that western women are very hypergamous. One thing people dont realize is that anglicized culture is amongst the most gynocentric in the world. Women have always been catered for in the upper classes.

TBH I find this attitude kinda intolerable. One problem I have with this forum is the lack of respect for duality. Yes, the "MRA" can become an extremely unhealthy echo chamber of misogyny....but lets give honesty its due here. One of the big reasons why so many lower middle class men are falling behind is because of their outright refusal to carefully assess the playing field and pivot themselves accordingly. If anything, women prove themselves to be far more adept to accommodating change than men are.

The. Numbers. Dont. Lie.

Marriage? Tumbling
Fertility? White birth rates are falling off a map
Economic opportunity? More women with college degrees than men
Sex? LOL apparently, the millenials are actually having less...http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/why-a...nnials-****ing

Something is happening, something both intriguing and unprecedented. A mass cultural shift. And a slowly building backlash. No, women DONT need men... capital and the "means of production" are more automated than ever before. Much of our economies are run by globalist industrialist and technocrats. The vast majority of workers are carrying out superfluous work which is of no real benefit to economic output or productivity...its merely working for the sake of feeding or debt based and consumer driven economy.

It matters. The fact that the Donald has become so popular, why brexit gained such traction is proof that people are feeling unsettled. Why some of you choose to bury your head in the sand still confounds me.

Negged for not understanding the nature of reality or the universe. How do you suppose this "cultural shift" will culminate? I suppose you're one of these ******* MGTOW doomsday theorists who think we're going back to the stone age where women will need to rely on men for everything because daddygov wont be there to support them. In reality you're just a moronic little media victim who has succumbed to the fearmongering tactics of the oligarchy.

For the most part they aren't procreating with degenerates. They still understand someone needs to take care of these little sh*ts financially and usually use a beta provider. Most still know the route of single mom from a degenerate to landing a financial provider is difficult so they still procreate with the beta providers and just cheat on them (men actually being cuckolded into raising another man's child without his knowledge isn't as common as misc wants you to think).....at least for now....who knows what the future holds. But for now your theory is kind of sh*t.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Not sure what the problem is. If only Chads did the same thing and not bang unterfraus, we'd eventually become a more aesthetic humanity of Stacis and Chads.

Repped, most of them are smart enough to secure a beta cuck provider before they have fun with alpha cawk on the side. I kind of feel sorry for single mothers who got impregnated by some bad boy loser and then face an uphill battle looking for a "good guy" to provide for them. They did it wrong.

OP is absolutely right.


One part he is missing is also the whale factor. In addition to everything from OP, you have fewer and fewer women who are actually desirable. it's a disaster

OP is a doofus. Women always need men for money and attention. Even if a woman has a million dollars, buying herself a diamond necklace isn't the same as a man buying it for her. Getting hot guys to bang her senseless isn't the same as getting breakfast in bed and a nice valentines gift.

OP you're deluded and have such little real life interaction with women that you don't see the subtleties.

My boy Nikola Tesla called it in 1926

"This struggle of the human female toward sex equality will end in a new sex order, with the female as superior. The modern woman, who anticipates in merely superficial phenomena the advancement of her sex, is but a surface symptom of something deeper and more potent fermenting in the bosom of the race.

"It is not in the shallow physical imitation of men that women will assert first their equality and later their superiority, but in the awakening of the intellect of women.

"Through countless generations, from the very beginning, the social subservience of women resulted naturally in the partial atrophy or at least the hereditary suspension of mental qualities which we now know the female sex to be endowed with no less than men.

The Queen is the Center of Life

"BUT the female mind has demonstrated a capacity for all the mental acquirements and achievements of men, and as generations ensue that capacity will be expanded; the average woman will be as well educated as the average man, and then better educated, for the dormant faculties of her brain will be stimulated to an activity that will be all the more intense and powerful because of centuries of repose. Woman will ignore precedent and startle civilization with their progress.

"The acquisition of new fields of endeavor by women, their gradual usurpation of leadership, will dull and finally dissipate feminine sensibilities, will choke the maternal instinct, so that marriage and motherhood may become abhorrent and human civilization draw closer and closer to the perfect civilization of the bee."

The significance of this lies in the principle dominating the economy of the bee--the most highly organized and intelligently coordinated system of any form of nonrational animal life--the all-governing supremacy of the instinct for immortality which makes divinity out of motherhood.

The center of all bee life is the queen. She dominates the hive, not through hereditary right, for any egg may be hatched into a reigning queen, but because she is the womb of this insect race.

We Can Only Sit and Wonder

THERE are the vast, desexualized armies of workers whose sole aim and happiness in life is hard work. It is the perfection of communism, of socialized, cooperative life wherein all things, including the young, are the property and concern of all.

Then there are the virgin bees, the princess bees, the females which are selected from the eggs of the queen when they are hatched and preserved in case an unfruitful queen should bring disappointment to the hive. And there are the male bees, few in number, unclean of habit, tolerated only because they are necessary to mate with the queen.

When the time is ripe for the queen to take her nuptial flight the male bees are drilled and regimented. The queen passes the drones which guard the gate of the hive, and the male bees follow her in rustling array. Strongest of all the inhabitants of the hive, more powerful than any of her subjects, the queen launches into the air, spiraling upward and upward, the male bees following. Some of the pursuers weaken and fail, drop out of the nuptial chase, but the queen wings higher and higher until a point is reached in the far ether where but one of the male bees remains. By the inflexible law of natural selection he is the strongest, and he mates with the queen. At the moment of marriage his body splits asunder and he perishes.

The queen returns to the hive, impregnated, carrying with her tens of thousands of eggs--a future city of bees, and then begins the cycle of reproduction, the concentration of the teeming life of the hive in unceasing work for the birth of a new generation.
