Re: PUA obsession for “mainstream” & “western/feminist culture"... Is it even tr
There is much more to it than it can be covered in couple of paragraphs...
You have to look at the whole society, at the role of men and women, where we were thousands of years ago, one hundred years ago, fifty years ago, and where we are today....
For thousands of years average men used to hunt, work hard physical/manual jobs... we were out there in the nature hunting animals, plowing ground, building things... We did hard manual jobs just so we can survive. Even our fathers and grandfathers used to work much harder than we do. Also by default, we were providers, we were responsible to take care of our families, there was no state, welfare, social services....
As we humans advanced and got much smarter, we began using more and more technology - better tools, vehicles, trains, motors, automated production/robots, computers,... Today we have strong social support, we can literally sit home and do nothing, complain and whine, and we can still survive long decades. Our life simply became much easier...
There are couple of significant things that came with this so called progress. When we compare ourselves (yes, especially today's young generation) to men who lived 50-100 or more years ago, we simply became pussies. We are much weaker, we are without spine, entitled, unable to fight, unable to make decisions... We are dependent on system, dependent on girls, what they say about us or what they think about us...
We average men became much lazier, we got more obese, we got more dependent on others... Years ago our grandfathers had to make decisions on daily bases, they had to hunt or work in the fields, otherwise they didn't eat, many would die... Today we sit home all day long, we sip sodas overloaded with sugar, and they can bring us food directly to the door. We can't even decide where to go for lunch, we don't have to lift our lazy ass from the couch if we don't want to, that is how easy our Life is. That is also why we are fat like pigs, it is simply because we are not moving at all and because we consume 10x more calories than we should. That's the true reason, don't even try to blame it on genetics...
Because of all of that, because of no movement and obesity, our testosterone levels also dropped. Testosterone is what makes us men men. In other words, no testosterone no man... Simple as that...
So when you look at it this way, it is much easier to see what the problem is. We are simply half-men than ancestors used to be. We behave like pussies, we talk like pussies, we have feelings like pussies. Maybe there is still some differences between America and Europe, or other countries, but that will disappear as other countries are following USA. Today USA is simply one step ahead of everybody, who knows, just one generation...? But that will be gone soon.
How does it relate to seduction and relationships? Well, it does, and a lot. First, girls/women can no longer find real man. Girls have more freedom, they are more self-sufficient, they get lots of support from the system and laws - so what for does a smart woman need a guy for? She doesn't need any guy, she can raise a child on her own. She doesn't need taking care of another pussy, she wants a man - but there are none... Lots of girls still want the classical male, a strong guy that can provide, a strong guy who wants to have have happy family that he takes care of, a strong guy who sit at the head of table and hits it with his fist when he gets pissed. Silly? Well, IMO you would be quite surprised...
Look at presidents, compare Mr. O to Mr. Putin. Obama is simply a pussy, he behaves like pussy, he talks like pussy, he is weak like a pussy... He has no respect, all he knows is talks. One half of Americans disrespect him, and the other half just doesn't pay any attention... The whole world disrespect him, US allies don't trust him, nobody knows where he stands, nobody even has a clue what religion is he, if any. He wants to talk to our enemies in middle east, he needs coalition of tens of nations before he does anything. For some reason he just doesn't understand that they have no desire to talk at all.... On the other hand, look at Putin. I bet even lots of Americans who monitor politics must admit that Putin is "The Man". He doesn't fuck around, he has respects. One day he decides, and the other he bombs the sh*t out of his (and our) enemies. He doesn't need any coalition. He understands that there is no way to peace with big smiles, empty hands and loud words. He understands that although it is already 2015, all they understand over there is hard and uncompromising fist... Putin is the exact of Obama, Putin is The Man...
There is a picture rotating around the internet: while Mr. O rides bicycle or tricycle with pink safety helmet covering his head - just in case our little princess falls thus could get some bruises - Putin rides half naked on a Bear. Funny, but that says is all. Mr. O simply represents the Pussification of today's America, and there is lots of pussies... It is just difficult to see it when one is part of such crowd...
So what is the solution to this problem? Well, it appears that there are currently two main streams. Many guys realize that they have lots of problems with girls - they can't get laid, they can't keep the girl, they get disrespected, when they get divorced they get stripped of everything they have...
So one stream is the Manosphere. It is a simple effort to restore the "manhood". Become "the man" again, act like a man, do manly things, give up on the life of pussy. Put the woman on "lower" level again, because we already know that is is only MEN who built EVERYTHING in our society. That's right it was us men, not women. There is no equality, we can survive without females with basic tools out in nature for many years, decades... But they cannot survive without us, they will not survive more than couple of months, that's as equal as it gets... Manosphere, Red Pill, ROK and so on is perhaps just a desire to restore the classical manhood. The philosophy is quite simple, Man doesn't really have to understand woman, he doesn't even have to worry about understanding women. He is just simple guy doing manly things... All he has to do is behave like man, perhaps have some simply or silly game, and the female(s) should - ideally - join him... And many do, after all, females too want sex, normal females want family too, natural protection by somebody who is much stronger... That is what men always used to be, and believe or not, many women still want that classical male...
The other stream is more sophisticated, more up to date, more tuned up male; perhaps GC is a great example. Evolution is here, progress is here, new millennium is here, more knowledge is here... So we are more equal to females, we have more laws, we have feelings, we can spend years on seducing females and polishing our skills, we can work more on understanding, empathy, why not...
It doesn't of course be just black and white, combination of both is probably the best way anyway...
