Firing On All Cylinders

by Featured Guest on December 20, 2011

By Nemo

“Firing on all cylinders” is a metaphor of the machine age that means that everything is working at its optimum capacity. It refers to the cylinders of an internal combustion engine in a gasoline-powered automobile, which provide maximum power when all of them are firing in perfect synchronization. This requires the vehicle to be well-maintained and finely tuned to near perfection.
It has been observed that most great scientists, who are almost exclusively men, make their greatest discoveries when they are unmarried and in romantic relationships with young women. There seems to be something about young love that simultaneously energizes a man’s creativity and relaxes his anxieties. He then can focus his mind almost exclusively upon his work, for his body and his spirit are at ease. He labors to experience the joy of creation and wastes no thought upon the avoidance of pain.

This phenomenon is not unique to science. The ancient Greeks went so far as to deify ideal young women in the nine Muses of antiquity, who were held to inspire men and women to create in the fields of poetry, history, astronomy, song, dance, and drama.

Older and wiser cultures once exerted pressure upon young women to marry young men with promising talents in useful fields of human endeavor. Wealth was often more desirable than talent, but a young man with “prospects” was often a close second to a young “man of leisure” in the esteem of society. It was assumed that his success would create enough wealth to satisfy the needs of his bride. Even a casual survey of Victorian literature reveals this as a recurrent theme.

Sadly, this ancient wisdom has been discarded by modern society. Today women are “empowered” to choose their own mates as soon as they reach legal adulthood. In practice, it’s next to impossible to rein them in after they reach puberty. By and large, they choose the young men with the highest status in adolescent subculture rather than adult society.

Athletes, movie actors, rap artists, and above all else “bad boys” are desired by young women. Poets, historians, astronomers, and playwrights are not even on the radar of the modern young lady. Engineers and computer geeks are actively avoided. Purely rational men of science and technology have the same level of appeal to nubile women that garlic has to vampires. Emotional and unstable men have “passion” and are a hot commodity among women who have no constraints upon their own desires. Like seeks like.

As a result, we have a chronic shortage of muses. Young men who are inclined to be an asset to society rather than a liability are, by and large, shunned at precisely the age when they should be making their greatest discoveries. Albert Einstein was 26 when he invented the theory of special relativity. Can anyone imagine a hip young urban lady in modern America dating a patent clerk with bright ideas?

At the same time that we have a shortage of muses, we have a superabundance of banshees. Some women who are nearing their reproductive expiration date will hold their noses long enough to marry a rational man, but only if there’s enough money in it. Few of these marriages are happy or durable, because women who crave passion and have sampled it from dozens of men are rarely content to settle down and stay faithful to one boring, tediously logical man. Some will fake it just long enough to become “fully vested” and cash out in a divorce with the maximum alimony and child support.

In the meantime, life for their husbands is fraught with strife and turmoil. Almost every man has, at some point, put in a bad day’s work because a woman has added stress and strain to his psyche that exceeds even the most stoic man’s limits of endurance. On a personal note, I once donated blood a few hours after an argument with a female and was shocked to discover that my pulse was still racing at 100 beats a minute rather than the usual range of 56 to 84. Men who are badly stressed before they arrive at work are poorer performers. They also age faster – most married men turn gray years before their bachelor counterparts.

There is a price to be paid for this. Innovation seems to be slowing in most fields of science and technology, and the West is slipping backwards in some areas. The “Next Big Thing” seems elusive, and the current candidates are a scrawny lot. Facebook is valued at twice the market capitalization of Boeing, which appears to violate common sense and is an indication of the distortion of not only our financial values but also our societal norms. NASA needs to bum rides from the Russians to get astronauts into orbit. We are even having trouble maintaining existing technology, such as the electrical grid that is the skeleton of the information age.

Failure to inspire the creativity of our young men, which is the prime impetus for progress in a technological society, causes our entire civilization to fail to fire on all cylinders. Economic malaise leads to social crises and civil unrest. Other nations such as China seem to have their act together better than Europe and America, and we are falling behind them in a relative sense and may soon fall behind them in an absolute sense. Their economies and societies are firing on all cylinders and catching up to us. In ten or fifteen years, the West may be passed by as our engines of innovation and growth sputter and blow clouds of smoke.

Perhaps, someday, a generation of women will be re-taught the ancient wisdom of the Greeks and the more modern customs of the Victorians and rediscover the charming attributes that elevate a mere female into a celestial muse. Until then, our young men will be forced to endure the scorn of the banshees and must persevere to advance society in spite of the opposite sex rather than in the cause of our womenfolk.

Women as devoted helpmeets to their lifetime partners is something we can only see in old movies about Marconi and Edison. I have fond memories of both sets of grandparents secure in the havens that their respectful unions provided. I am not sentimentalising. It was real. I remember it.

I agree with Mr Nemo. Feminism has wrought havoc by sowing mistrust and resentment that has devolved into something very ugly. Pandering to women’s worst instincts for self-pity and short-term gratification has been a disaster. Women have destroyed the value of what little they had to offer. It rendered them utterly useless to the right kind of men, and by extension, mankind.

Young men don’t need to endure anything other than to gain the moral fortitude our forefathers had to leave a bad situation for greener pastures.

Next give up on the training that told you that sacrificing your life for a woman who hates you to steal your children and enslave you is your goal.

Our women are like really small weak dudes but without a sense of humor or sex drive….in fact, there’s profit in relationship destruction and not having sex for women.

Like real estate, women in the US have taken to man flipping….and are doing very well. (I would like to say this is not true but ask any woman who is honest and she’ll tell you feminism was the best thing that ever happened to her and she wouldn’t be able to walk upright if it weren’t for feminism).

Women will not “return to sanity”. They are perfectly sane, they thought this through 40 years ago.

This was a complex plan. The details were published. The lies the plan was based on is still being foisted on us.

There are already places in the world that see what is happening and the opening Ameriskanks have given them to grow their influence in the US to the point of near complete control.

Our politicians admit that international corperations run them through lobbiests, basically legalized corruption…..first at the trough……feminists.

My advice to young men is to realize your society has turned against you, be defensive and take care of yourself, any sacrifice for others will be severly punished.

I agree with Nemo. The loyal, true, enduring love of a young woman can indeed be a powerful influence for good on a man. Unfortunately, most young women are less attractive than the dredgings from a stinking cesspool. Until that changes, most men will have little incentive to excel. Compound that with the fact that any success a man has will be used against him and everything he loves can be instantly transformed into a weapon to destroy him without cause, and it becomes obvious why we are not “firing on all cylinders.”

And right on the money.

To quote a Stone Age aphorism: “behind every great man stands a good woman.” This meant, obviously, that for a man to achieve he needed the practical and emotional support of a “good woman” (LOL), so he could focus on his work.

Today, it’s more like this . Instead of a supporter and partner a man’s wife is a relentless competitor in a race to the bottom, to consume all the man’s material and emotional resources before he can use them to productive ends.

A guy I went to college with graduated with a mechanical eng.-type degree specializing in plastics extrusion; he was a tinkerer – I could definitely envision him as the sort of fellow who would putter about a workshop trying different things to solve a problem. A year or two out of college he came up with an idea for a novel manufacturing process and was looking into getting a patent for it. I even offered to loan him some money to help him do some experimenting for a prototype as a prelude to a start up firm. Then he knocked up his girlfriend.

The shotgun wedding followed five months later. Then they had twins. Eight years on he has five kids and still lives in a 2 bedroom, 1bath house (w/ no basement and no garage) he rents that originally was a vacation cottage. He nevered followed up with the patent. He works at an autoparts supplier and he doesn’t even have internet access so we don’t email anymore. He works the late shift so we never talk on the phone. These days, aside from the annual Xmas card (written by his wife) I have no contact with him.

I lament the loss of his talent, his productivity and his friendship. In short, I decry the needless loss of VALUE. All his energies are now devoted to tending the children and trying to keep his wife happy.

All because he screwed around.

Interesting, but I think this leaves out a very important factor; the radical feminization of the educational sector, particularly at elementary level.

This has two important consequences:

One, the systematic and continuous denigration of all males and male achievements puts a significant number of boys off education (and science) from a very early age.

Two, the emphasis on worthless self-empowerment at the expense of genuine competition makes those disciplines that actually require hard work and achievement (particularly STEM subjects) seem actively off-putting. Who wants to do advanced Math when you’re a unique snow-flake just for being you?

This is why STEM is going off a cliff in the West and why the legion of women studying gender studies, sociology, psychology and fine arts WILL NOT CHANGE A DAMN THING.

The Captain is absolutely right on this.

In other words, a CoWorker.

A man wants a wife, not a CoWorker.

Today’s man gets to spend his days tightly bound by rules to enable his competition – female coworkers. On the commute home he struggles to defend his piece of pavement against the encroachments of yet more female CoWorkers who are foaming at the mouth behind the wheel of their Sissy Utility Vehicles (SUVs). When he arrives home he can look forward to negotiating with his Co-Equal CoWorker Wife over who is assigned to empty the packaged food components into the Micro-Wave and who is assigned cleanup duties. As he tears open the synthetic protein food box he vaguely notices the happy female coworker colored children on the face of the packaging and the claims of empowerment that Encorpera is providing “girls” through donations of laptops and “Facebook” accounts. Over dinner CoWife complains about her shit CoWorkers. When they crawl into bed after watching 3 hours of Co-TV her pussy is dry as a bone because she’s still angry at her male Co-Boss.

This is your dream. This is your nightmare.

Interesting food for thought. While I do not agree with the extent of your analysis I do believe you have expressed many good insights about how women can positively and negatively affect a man’s stress level and innovation abilities. Stress, rules, laws, oppression, all types of physical and emotional toxic environments pro-feminist/ anti-male ie misandry all contribute to killing innovation. A research study recently found that men find America less free than women. No sh*t!

Or we turn our attentions entirely to stopping feminism; seeking social and political power for this purpose alone, making it our life’s work.

Even if you have the greatest woman in the world, a vindictive neighbor can still can and say she heard fighting among the two of you.

When the greatest woman in the world sticks up for you, another female in black robes orders her to discuss her feelings with yet another female in order to get at the real story.

When the greatest woman in the world denies the real story, the man is then kicked out of the house and she is sent home with required therapy sessions.

When the greatest woman in the world goes to see the man she loves he is arrested for violating the restraining order.

You can see where this is going. The point is not even the NAWALT is worth the risk. The government will ruin her just as bad as it ruins him if she doesn’t play along.

Can this be avoided. Yes, It will take two generations of men not marrying. Then we have all the money back.

So MGTOW is the solution. Just remember to give everything away before you die, and make sure it goes to another man who is not a slave to his penis.

I know I’m dreaming, but what the hell.

If nothing else dissuades you from marrying a woman who is 25+ years of age, maybe this little tidbit will … She has more-than-likely had on average 4-6 times MORE unique sexual partners than you – maybe even more than that. Her fun days romping in the sack are pretty much over with. She just wants to settle down with someone who will provide her with financial security. Yeah, yeah, yeah – she’ll tempt you with all her feminine charm (what she has left, anyway) to make you believe s-e-x is high on her list after you tie the know, but its all a ruse to get you to say “I do.” A large portion of today’s married couples live in a sexless marriage – don’t think yours will be any different. And kids? Well, if you were lucky to be getting any action before, you can pretty much kiss it all goodbye once one of these come along.

Whoa! Wait a doggone minute here!

Once we liberated women from the societal constraints imposed by patriarchy, they would rise up to contribute some of the most innovative, creative and brilliant minds of our time. Now that they’ve been “freed” from the shackles of domestic slavery to attend our institutions of higher education, without fear of being burdened with our offspring in their prime, they would prove themselves equally capable. We wouldn’t need males to keep doing it.

And here we sit, 50 years and three generations past, and not only have women proven what we knew all along to be true about their nature, but indocrinated young men feel obligated to step aside and insist we keep giving women a chance; that somewhere, somehow, at some point women will become equally brilliant at something.

This is the great period of innovative stagnation as men are so busy having to pretend women are equal, they do little themselves for fear of offending the Femocracy. Young men must appease young women by lowering their own standards of achievement precipitiously. It’s self-imposed gender “normalization”, ’cause for woman to be equal, man must hold back and let her. Competing against her wouldn’t be fair.

The Feminist argument to this is that Patriarchy remains omnipresent but in more covert yet just as subversive forms; even going so far as to say Patriarchal Oppression runs so deep that its engrained in female DNA and will take decades if not centuries for women to overcome it.

So to say young men no longer have hope of a young muse to inspire them, is to say that’s all women were ever good for. Remember women are just as competent, capable and innovative as men. We only recently “permitted” them to be. Let’s keep waiting for them to prove they are, while little else gets done.

“I ain’t gonna lie. The times I’ve had a girlfriend were when I felt most positive, creative and brave. It’s a great feeling.”

Yes, I am sure many of us can identify with the same feelings. Also kept/keeps many of us repeating the same mistakes. The great strength and purpose of the likes of the Spearhead et al is to edumacate men, young /old and globally.

Perhaps the below excerpts from a couple of well known books will be of interest to you and others.

P.s. It is still very painfull to swallow this part of the red pill. We are just like the junky/smack head coming off drugs by going cold turkey.

————————————————————————————-
Esther Vilar in The Manipulated Man says that the manipulation of men begins when they are born:

Mothers, with some fantasy cut-out in their heads of what boys are like, and suffering from the deficiencies of their husbands, set about to make junior a perfect little man. He is such a “good little boy” when he learns to pee pee inside the round white hole and resists smacking the cat with his toy bulldozer. Mothers love their daughters, but they wax with pride over their sons. They immediately set about trying to make them into everything the husband is not…

The mere fact that a man is accustomed from his earliest years to have women around, to find their presence “normal”, their absence “abnormal”, tends to make him dependent on women later in life. Dad is a character that comes and goes, but mom is the rock in junior’s life. He learns from her that taking directions from women who act like they know what they are doing is normal. It is almost impossible to underestimate the psychological power of this early social dynamic. A man’s whole notion of security and safety throughout life comes from giving himself to this dependent relationship. Like an imprinted gosling he spends his whole life looking for a certain shape to attach himself to.

We spend our marriages trying to wrest the same affirmation from our wives that we got from our moms, way back when, before we could even “think”. Our wives accuse us of trying to get them to mother us and it’s true, we are, that’s how we were trained. I know a phone-sex vendor in Chicago named Valerie Craft who stated unequivocally that her entire business consists in comforting men in the manner of their mothers. Astounding! But not really.

Says Vilar:

“One of the most useful factors in conditioning a man is praise. Its effect is better and much more long-lasting than say, sex, as it may be started early and continued throughout a man’s life. Furthermore, if praise is applied in the correct dosage a woman will never need to scold. Any man who is accustomed to a regular and conditional dosage of praise will interpret its absence as displeasure.”

Most jilted male lovers and husbands have an explosive mental melt-down at their beloved’s infidelities, which is vastly out of proportion to what they are being deprived of. It feels to them as if they are being torn away from their mother’s bodies, and indeed, that’s just what is going on down deep in their psyches. They are losing the basic unit of security, the emotional lifeline ingrained in them when they were still peeing in their pants. That’s why men rage and want to beat people up when their lovers leave them. That’s why most break-ups involve women leaving men rather than men leaving women. Why would a man leave? After years of adolescent drunken degradation and self-abuse he has an hour-glass-shaped praise-giver back in his life again. That’s normal. That’s how it’s supposed to be. That’s what mom showed him.

Says Vilar:

“Training by means of praise has the following advantages: it makes the object of praise dependent (in order for praise to be worth something it has to come from a “higher” source, thus the object of praise exalts the praise-giver to a superior level); it creates an addict (without praise he no longer knows whether or not he is worth something — automatic existential shame — and he forgets the ability to identify with himself); praise increases his productivity (it is most effectively meted out not for the same achievements but for increasingly higher ones). Only mothers and wives, not other men or women, dispense the hugs and praise that men so crave. A boy, like a monkey, will repeat the actions that called forth endearments and, if at any time recognition is not granted, he will do everything in his power, bar nothing, to regain it.”

He will climb mountains or work in coal mines or eat shit, allowing himself, like a junkie, to be totally shamed. And, says Vilar, “the happiness he feels when praise is restored will already have assumed the proportions of an addiction.”

Shame, that deep feeling of worthlessness and helplessness, is precisely the result of withheld praise. Regarding my own mother I’ve always referred to it as “withdrawal of love”. Even now, 43 years after the fact, she can set off an awful, depressing, manic, physical grinding in my stomach simply by withdrawing her love. Clearly she trained me to respond that way eons ago, before I had any sense of how anything works. In its way, it is sheer brutality. Dependency training is like teaching a puppy to come on the word “go” and then sending him off on a walk with a total stranger. The entire phenomenon of praise, and shame, and withdrawal of love is a very distorted garbling of signals imprinted in babies’ heads. God says surrender your ego. Mom says hang onto your ego so I can continue to use it to shame you into doing what I want. Who do you want to believe? God or mom? Do you wonder why so many more men than women drink and abuse drugs?

Here is the substance of addiction. We were strung out on praise early in life and without regular doses of praise we hurt so bad and feel so useless we have to try to kill the pain somehow. Ah, that first glass of beer, that first joint, how it took the pain away!

Not to denigrate your comment, but isn’t this what a meth addict “feels” like? (“When I’m on meth, I feel like I can do anything – like I can take on the World, man!”)

Said another way, were you ACTUALLY creative and DID you actually exhibit bravery, or did you merely “feel” that way? Only results matter. And that’s one of those concepts that is incomprehensible to most women…

“I ain’t gonna lie. The times I’ve had a girlfriend were when I felt most positive, creative and brave. It’s a great feeling.”

Craig, I feel you. Being in a good relationship is a great feeling, no doubt.

HOWEVER, the inverse (converse?) comment from a friend of mine is also true and perhaps even more important: “When I look back on my life (45 years now), those two or three times when I was the most miserable in my entire life was entirely because of a woman.”

The lesson: let a woman inside your emotional walls at your own risk. Game can help all men maintain proper frame and perspective with women.

Conservatives know that women left to their own inclinations tend to engage in self-destructive behavior; we didn’t pull patriarchy out of our asses, or invent it because of the meanness of our hearts. It developed as a pragmatic means to protect women from themselves. Unfortunately we have a hard time defending this point of view because many conservatives mix patriarchy up with dubious religious beliefs which they have trouble selling to people in the modern world, even though religion and patriarchy exist independently from each other, and they make dissimilar claims.

We shouldn’t have this problem because patriarchy has empirical support; we can’t observe the supernaturals, but men have had to live with women all along.

“A man’s whole notion of security and safety throughout life comes from giving himself to this dependent relationship”.

Good points yet I think it also depends on the individual man. Some men want/need a wife who is very nurturing and maternal, and perhaps dominant. Yet other men are so sick of having endured an overbearing mother (who could be a b*tch when not pleased) that they simply want/need a pleasant supportive wife. Many men have grown up with the mother as the primary or exclusive parent in their life and mostly women teachers especially when young. Some of younger guys who grew up in those environments are wimps and evoke little life energy, strength, or pride in being male. Others are sick to death of women and their female values being vomited on them. Those men are often ghosting and MGTOW in their own way joining fight clubs, playing video games, playing poker with their buds, and keeping women around as f*ck buddies. It is not just women over thirty who can’t find or see men. Even younger women, in their early twenties, these days are asking ‘where have all the men gone’?

Traditionally, a woman who chooses a domineering father type man as a husband is not laughed at by society. However, a man who is in a relationship with a domineering mother-type wife is sneered at by society for being a weakling. Ah, the double-standards in society.

I wouldn’t worry about China outstripping us in innovation. There is a massive shortage of females, and field reports and the press would indicate that female hypergamy is running wild there, though with a notably different spin and flavor than the west. What is left of their traditional culture will sputter out completely in the next 20 years and they will be in the same boat we are. Look at what happened to Japan. They were supposed to utterly dominate us by now.

Actually, maybe we should worry that human endeavor will just end completely.

Also, while Boeing vs. Facebook is a good example, the manned civilian space program is not. It’s existence was to distract the public from the American spy satellite program needed to win the Cold War. With the fall of communism, it’s an anachronism. Manned space flight should become the realm of private companies, and this is happening.

A few more excerpts to consider
——————————————————————————-

Women love money because they love shopping – power over objects – and they love men who give them the money to have this power.

——————————————————————————–

Says Vilar: “Once a particular field of work has brought a man success and financial security, it is uncommon for him to test his abilities in another sphere – his supply of praise might be dangerously reduced. Like Miro and his dots-and-lines technique, Johann Strauss and his waltzes, and Tennessee Williams with his plays about psychotic women, he will stick firmly to his successful technique. The risk of him attempting to be the measure of his own success is too great for him to take.”

——————————————————————————–

When people talk about the “woman who stands behind the man” what they mean is that even if she did not lift one finger to help him, at least she held in check her vast repertoire of tools with which she could have sabotaged his delicate, uncertain, creative leap. It’s not easy for a woman, with limited right brain and no creative disposition, to resist critiquing and manipulating her spouse into more logically productive activity. There are no more than a handful of women alive who can see their way to supporting men’s follies when the paycheck stops coming in.

——————————————————————————–

A man is generally delighted to find that his wife is taking up painting or weaving or writing because this means that she has less time for shopping or manipulating him, or arranging romantic trysts. Who cares if the dirty dishes pile up? If she’s happy she’s not going to torment him.

——————————————————————————–

Woman is not a Goddess. She is a breathing bag of protoplasm – spiffed up with pink panties and blue eyeliner. She is earth, not sky. Down, not up. Her children are as much a part of her body as her arms and legs, and when she claims to have sacrificed everything for her family it is akin to saying she did everything she possibly could for her thighs and hips.

——————————————————————————–

Says Vilar: “Women really are callous creatures – mainly because it is not to their advantage to feel deeply. Feelings might seduce them into choosing a man who is no use to them, i.e., a man who they could not manipulate at will. Listen to the conversation of young lovers in the park. It is ALWAYS about the female trying to convince the male to do, or not do, something. The first thing a woman wants to know is whether she can manipulate the man. That is the beginning of the relationship, the beginning of ‘I love you.’

But she knows, at the same time, that it is absolutely necessary for ‘woman’ to enact the role of a sensitive being, or man would become aware of her essentially cold, calculating nature.”

——————————————————————————–

Through double-signals, deception, and feistiness women create discord that they expect men to repair, “to show me you love me.” This is not helpless emotionalism; this is analytical manipulation run wild. Baffle them with cowshit. And men, the deep lovers, put up with it.

——————————————————————————–

Says Vilar: “What an advantage a man would have if he only realized the cold, clear thoughts running through a woman’s head while her eyes are brimming with tears.”

——————————————————————————–

Women are emotional faucets. A woman can insult the intestines out of her husband, brush on some eyeliner, go to a dinner party, and have a wonderful time, meanwhile leaving the poor man writhing in pain all night. And why does he keep coming back for the abuse? Because he needs the praise that mom taught him to need. And he needs sex.

“Not to denigrate your comment, but isn’t this what a meth addict “feels” like? (“When I’m on meth, I feel like I can do anything – like I can take on the World, man!”)”

@GS Jockey
“HOWEVER, the inverse (converse?) comment from a friend of mine is also true and perhaps even more important: “When I look back on my life (45 years now), those two or three times when I was the most miserable in my entire life was entirely because of a woman.””

I totally hear you guys on this. No, I have no data on whether I was more productive or more helpful to anyone else.

Like, was it love and mutual support, or rather was it just getting the rare (and very much temporary) chance to feed my voracious addiction to female beauty and approval? I’m sure that in reality it was mostly the latter.

Yet where I can’t go is to the point of saying that our built-in addiction to women must be resisted and squelched at all costs. Not that hardly anyone here (other than one or two you-know-who’s) actually advocates that.

So how about this: I’ve noticed just how powerful my pull towards female approval/affection is, and how it can be “used for good”. It can also be used against me by individuals, corporations, the state, etc. Therefore, my challenge is to figure out how to satisfy this need within myself… while keeping my eyes open on how it can get me hurt. And if I can’t “satisfy” then I can start with “understand and feel compassion for.”

Ssssssssssomething like that.

I was a young Engineer – fresh out of school – in the early 1980′s, and I have clear memories of 5 and 6-level young women attempting to initiate relationships with me at the time.

There was no “game” involved on my part, and in a few cases, I simply went along for the ride. I was seen as a “good catch” at the time – someone with a bright future.

However, even then, there was an awareness on my part that I was being used as a “meal ticket” by these young ladies. Those of us that are old enough will recall that during this period, there was a small company called Microsoft – – headed by a geeky-looking young guy named Bill Gates – that was given prominent publicity in the MSM of the day..

So for a few years, geeky-looking technology nerds were held in high(er) esteem by acceptable-looking young ladies. We were seen as “success objects”.

And yet – even as a horny young nerd – I knew something was not quite right..

@Survivorman

It isn’t limited to what you call “geeky-looking technology nerds,” although I’ll admit that few phrases could conjure up a more complete mental picture.

I think that any man, regardless of the color of his shirt-collar, who’s managed to make a success of his life will be seen as a “good catch.” I own and operate my own trucking business, and while it’s a six-figure income, it isn’t the most exciting or intriguing field to be in, especially to women. It’s odd, but when I’m talking to someone new, I seem to avoid mentioning what I do for a living for as long as I can.

The funny thing is, in spite of some of the negative stereotypes that abound in our culture regarding truck-drivers, there’s also this immediate assumption that we “make really good money.” So, if telling her parents about me, a young lady would have to qualify “he drives a truck for a living” with “but he makes over 100 grand!” And with that, her mother’s flash-image of a mulleted flannel-shirt and missing teeth (while it probably doesn’t disappear until she meets me) is replaced with stacks of money. It’s sad.

Incidentally, I started this company and built it while my ex-wife’s main contributions were nagging, apathy, and disdain for my ability to make something work.

It is not surprise the countries with women valuing wisdom in men are the one lading the world right now, Japan and South Korea have the most advance technology specially in robots, South Korea will be the first country to have robots living in the common household for 2015 according to the GOP and companies, Tokyo is the most advanced city in the world, Iran has the best computers programmer, they even hacked an USA drone and took it for them and it is not the first time they do it. Any of you remember where Japan was just 40 years ago? a relative of mine in college told me Indians men are the best maths teacher he has seen ever.

In these countries they don’t have affirmative action, female victim hood ideology and male bashing, everybody has the same education and take the same test and have the same amount of time to study if you don’t pass it is not because you are woman and Asian women know very well and tend to have a very good common sense, that is why is so hard to feminist get into societies like Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, China, Iran etc.

Young women good for men? God, just look at any painting,sculpture and poem, they are all about the beauty of young women, it was a privilege for any women be the model for any artist, they felt the attention, felt good being immortalizes for ever they knew they are beautiful in nature if an artist wanted to to make a sculpture of theirs naked body (just the best looking women were considered muses), do I have to mention these model were women as young as teenage girl most of them being fiance=bride-to-be 14-18 years old of the artist? in these days nubile age was this average and if we use our “modern” society many famous painters, sculptures and other artist will be taged as pedos.

From personal experience it matters more how we interpret a situation and the way we spin it more than the situation itself.
A man is capable of achieving his best if he keeps a positive frame of mind and focuses on it whether he is single, dating, or married.
The problem with marriage is if your pursuit requires alot of focused time to master and excel at it creates a lot of conflict that makes greatness less likely. Women of old gave their men leeway as work was important but today’s values are very different.

Everytime the French writer Balzac had an orgasm he would say to himself, there goes another book that will never be written.

As Freud said, culture depends on suppression or control of the primary life force. This is also known as the “hydaulic theory” of human nature: you can spend on a low level or high level but not both at the same time.

Thus celibacy is to be respected and the delay of sexual expression as well. – for students who are serious. Obviously no one wants a repeat of the horrible English Boarding School situation.

In a culture that teaches women that they are superior to men; it shouldn’t be surprising that women will pursue only those males whome they regard as inferiors. How hard can it be to feel superior to abusive thugs, metrosexual dimits, or meatheaded jocks? Not at all.

The common thread all the above-mention type of males share is their weakness. None of these clods could survive on their own without females enabling and supporting them. Which is why feminised women find them desirable.

Conversely, a ‘real man’ is only viewed by such women with contempt; because he is representative of everything truly masculine: which feminised culture teaches women to hate and despise.

Uncle Elmer is right: get out of this toxic cultural milieu if you want any hope of finding a real relationship.

Survivorman, my perception of women’s reactions to STEM-type males is different than yours. When Bill Gates was the superstar of the technology biz, it was commonplace to hear women bragging they “wouldn’t date Bill Gates for a billion dollars”. I don’t think guys like him had groupies. Only Larry Ellison founder of Oracle, is reputed to have had something approximating the playboy lifestyle, and he was the least geek-like; his frequent emotionally aggressive outbursts once earned him the nickname Loopy Larry. Silicon Valley is full of high earning naive nice guys who can’t get a date.

And need I mention the 30+ years of feminine loathing all the male fans of Star Trek have had to endure? Really, since Kirk first barked “Beam me up, Scotty!” into his mobile phone. Now every other woman in a minivan has one glued to her ear. I’m sure they make no connection of the sort this excelled piece by Nemo does, and think such things just
appear by magic, and always will.

I once had an acquaintance who was a physics prof, and his son was following in his footsteps. The students nowadays have a saying: Physics is an “Oh” major, because when you meet a girl and tell her you are one they always say “Oh…”.

The best way to keep a boy out of woman trouble is to encourage him to go STEM, the perfect “birth control” majors. That any in the U.S. any longer bother swimming against the constant tsunami of female disapproval is a bit of a miracle and mystery, and worthy of more study.

There is a price to be paid for this. Innovation seems to be slowing in most fields of science and technology, and the West is slipping backwards in some areas. The “Next Big Thing” seems elusive, and the current candidates are a scrawny lot.

It’s happening already.
For example what was the number one innovative technological advancement within the last 25 years?
unanimous answer The Internet

question: which countries have been most successful capitalizing off this technology?
Well it certainly wasn’t Europe that’s for sure! Notice there is no “silicon valley” in Europe. The USA profited off the software end, while east Asian countries made money manufacturing all the hardware that made the Internet possible: computer servers, routers, modems, etc…
But what about Europe? They got left behind and failed to milk the number one biggest invention / innovation of the last generation, ouch.
Surely this is a sign of a civilization in decline.

Europe is further ahead in decline than the USA, IMHO.
I don’t know what the “Next Big Thing” for the next 25 years is going to be: nano-tech, bio-tech, alternative energy, or something else totally out of the box. I just know that the USA will not be one of the countries to profiteer off this new technology unlike what we did with the Internet. As for Europe, once you fail to capitalize off “Next Big Thing” twice in a row it means you drop from 1st world to 2nd world status.

“Very beautiful…

The creative mind is motivated by the pursuit of knowledge and the resulting feelings of satisfaction and self-glory. Cunts have nothing to do with it; they’re more of a impediment than an “inspiration”.

=========

You sound very jaded and I don’t blame you.

But you’re still mistaken.

Women have two choices. They can either inspire their men or discourage them. They can either help their men surmount their obstacles or add to those obstacles. Women can (and will and continuously DO) ease a man’s stress or compound it.

Whether it’s by their presence or their absence, direct or indirect influence, women will do either of these things to a man.

There is no in-between. None whatsoever.

You’re dead wrong about India. India isn’t AS bad as America. . .but it’s getting there.

Several of the misandric mainstream media double standards that are prevalent here in the West are taking hold over there already (such as Female-On-Male-Violence-Is-Funny).

This is but a preview of what awaits men in India. Give it about ten to twenty.

Oh! Oh! And on an unrelated note, did you know that in Thailand, more and more parents are actually hoping they have daughters instead of sons? Yeah, sons are considered worth less than daughters over there.

Just like here in the US!

Of course, the Thai families hope for daughters for an entirely different reasons (whores make more money) but the fact that they consider sons as useless fodder is no different than over here.

So yeah ^_^

“Women’s empowerment” is actually a global pandemic spreading from the West and sweeping across the whole globe. But by the time Afghanistan embraces feminist tyranny , USA will already implode and become a ruined wilderness ruled by immigrant patriarchal tribal chieftains. The two countries will simply switch places. Unless some empowered femme whines and nags her way into the White House and proudly pushes the button of global nuclear destruction. One way or another, Brave New Grrrl World Order will never happen. It is too unsustainable. Man kind as a whole can perhaps be exterminated but never conquered.

Point taken, though I think “condemn” is a bit strong. But, as a first step, yes: the chains and the payments are much worse and longer lasting if a young guy gets a girl pregnant, than if he doesn’t have a chance to until maybe he’s in a better position at an older/wiser age.

I.e., stay out of Big Trouble first, so you can worry about the smaller problems from a better position later. I’m not saying it’s an optimum solution, as it’s a lesser of two evils choice at this point, not that they’re in a position to realize that at their age.

Ultimately it depends on how much time and influence you have with a given kid. (I’m talking 15-20 y.o.’s…) I’m typically limited to doing as much de-programming/re-programming as I can in 10-15 minutes. Your mileage will surely vary.
