@mattyanon I have a true (checkmark!) story about my little sister about 30 years ago. She got angry that I told it online even though I didn't name her. I'm risking her ire by sharing with you:
She told me about a new guy she was seeing. He was handsome, had two houses, a nice car, and took her out to dinner. He gave her three orgasms in one night.
I asked her if she was pleased and she said "No."
"I think he's using me for sex".
I told this to my girlfriend at the time and she laughed so hard she peed her pants. "That's a woman!" she said.
Indeed, women have these hangups on sex. Sure, they can get "great' sex but they have this guilt about it. In theory, a "real man" should give them great sex AND commitment but that often doesn't happen and even then, it often doesn't work out for them anyway as they get bored and want a "bad boy".
Another story: A former manager of mine was/is a certified Chad. Tall, well built naturally, and has a good education. His first marriage was to a pleasant woman and he got notified by a note from her lover who was jealous that she was cheating on him. So he got a good, clean divorce out of it.
He was EVERYTHING ANY woman could want and the woman cheated on him. So the guy, not being dumb, married one of the wealthiest women with a massive inheritance in Alexandria, Virginia. Their children are set for life. He lives well.
Women lack impulse control. A man can sit in an economy class seat on the way to paris and find a way to have a good time, a woman can sit in first class with champagne and be miserable about something. Watch Real Housewives series on Bravo: A bunch of rich B's prattling on and fighting each other.
Some women found a way to enjoy sex, and life, because they didn't the world revolved around pleasing them perfectly. As feminism progressed, this mindset was replaced with an entitlement one and we're all angry when we're refused an entitlement. If you ordered cheese on a burger, you get angry if it's not there. The more we think we're entitled, the more miserable we are if the world doesn't live up to that expectation.
That's why Type-A people are miserable: They want more out of life than they have to "push" themselves but they can't pause and smell the roses, laugh, or orgasm.

@Durek_The_Bald I agree. I think the 20th century was one of the worst centuries in which to be born male. You watched your authority vanish, while your value and freedom waned and everything was your fault. If you did join some big wars, they just told you it was a toxic waste to fight.
Now we are getting the silver lining to the feminist revolution. Men can do what they like. Women can be asked to pay their way. Men are starting to ask for fairness too. The cat is out of the bag. Hypergamy is real. The angel of the hearth is gone.
I think we will be old men who are happier to be men than we were as young men.
"Why? Why lie? Because women married betas for resources, and then stated they hated sex because they really did hate sex.... with their husbands."
"Women didn't fuck alpha men, but they sure did marry betas. AND THEN DIDNT FUCK THEM."
This pretty much describes the situation of all the parents of all of my friends who are not divorced. Bold of me to assume there is no cheating going on, but I am going to nonetheless.
My ex girlfriend's parents were pretty much the only ones who still flirted with each other, but that mother was a crazy coquette and did not speak very flatteringly about sex to her daughter...
AA-1025: The Memoirs of a Communist's infiltration in to the Church
Absorbing and compelling reading from beginning to end, AA -1025 Memoirs of the Communist Infiltration Into the Church is a must read for every Catholic today and for all who would understand just what has happened to the Catholic Church since the 1960 s.
In the 1960's, a French nurse, Marie Carre, attended an auto-crash victim who was brought into her hospital in a city she purposely does not name. The man lingered there near death for a few hours and then died. He had no identification on him, but he had a briefcase in which there was a set of quasi-autobiographical notes. She kept these notes and read them, and because of their extraordinary content, decided to publish them.
The result is this little book, "AA-1025 Memoirs of the Communist Infiltration Into the Church", a strange and fascinating account of a Communist who purposely entered the Catholic priesthood along with many others, with the intent to subvert and destroy the Church from within. His strange yet fascinating and illuminating set of biographical notes, tells of his commission to enter the priesthood, his experiences in the seminary, and the means and methods he used and promoted to help effect from within the auto-dissolution of the Catholic Church.
No one will read this book without a profound assent that something just like what is describer here must surely have happened on a wide scale in order to have disrupted the life of the Catholic Church so dramatically.
You can find mention of this book on youtube, The Internet Archive and other websites.

Look, I'm not going to pretend I'm above ruminating about the past - about not having cell phones, about having to call someone's door bell to see if they were home, having only two TV channels and five newspapers (and very little polarisation as a result). For sure, those times had their charm, and some things were "better" about them. I'm as much a sucker for nostalgia as the next guy!
But we're those times really "better" though? Now, I don't think so. I mean, take this as an example:
I still remember the days when the only way you could reach your girlfriend is calling her home, and her father than shit testing you endlessly before finally letting you go through
Charming stuff, for sure. But you could also look at it like, those (and more) were the hoops a guy had to jump through to get some ass once upon a time. Now, contrast that with today, were you can meet a girl, nut inside her asshole, and not even buy her a cup of coffe. What's not to love about that?

to an extent you're right, but back then really was better in some ways. Having a house and a family wasn't so out of reach to so many men like it is now, and pre-1970-or-so a man wasn't nearly as likely to have it all yanked away from him just because the wife was boooooooored and unhaaaaaaaappy
If we look at statistics on what percentage of guys would get married (and stay married), and have families etc., it may certainly seem like before the sexual revolution was a better time to be a man.
I don't count those things as "success" though - not in isolation. Having a family, and having a good time of it is success. Staying married, and having a good time of it, is success. And likewise: Being childless and single, and having a good time of it is success too.
I don't think the typical statistical metrics really tell the full story of what it was like to be a man before.
For one, the sexual revolution happened because women wanted it. Feminism happened because women wanted it. When women said they wanted to be "free", what they really were talking about was being free of beta buxx. Because it's not in their nature to want that, never have been. That's why "one woman for every man, one man for every woman" always has demanded strict social control of female nature to work (and by "work" I mean on a societal level, not for the individual man's life experience).
I mean, we know female nature today. It's all there right in the open. And we know that stuff doesn't work for women. It only works so long as the tingles are there. Being "the stable, dependable guy" just doesn't cut it. And we also know that "hypergamously unsatisfied, tingleless wife = shit life". We've seen it, heard the stories, and some of us have even experienced it. There's no reason to think that "before" was any different, seeing as female nature is the same as it's always been.
There's a lot of apex fallacy and romanticism when looking at the past. But we do get little remnants here and there, of what it really was like for the average guys. Sayings like "hell hath no fury like a woman scorn", "happy wife, happy life", jokes about terrible wives, and old memes such as this:
Read More@Vermillion-Rx The old days fucking sucked, and I'll tell you why.
Women didn't fuck alpha men, but they sure did marry betas. AND THEN DIDNT FUCK THEM.
I remember the 90's and women were still pretending they didn't like sex, and there was genuine societal confusion about whether women actually had orgasms or not.
Seriously.
Why? Why lie? Because women married betas for resources, and then stated they hated sex because they really did hate sex.... with their husbands.
100% providership, zero sexual interest, zero alternatives for most men.
Women are so choosy today because they're single and don't need to get married. They use stupid standards to pathetically try to demonstrate value, but it's all a lie to justify her stating single.
You don't need to be tall and ripped and make 6 figures to fuck her. You just need to be tall and ripped.
Read MoreOff topic, but opportunistically using current quote to answer a previous question you had asked.
I was 15 when we still did not had phones and used phone boots on the street.
That kind of gives away the ESL.
1) we still did not *have
2) you'd normally want to distinguish that you meant cell phones or mobile phones, rather than "we did not have phones" when most homes had a landline.
3) phone *booths. Boots go on your feet. If you can't remember "boot" vs "booth", then "kiosk" works (though most Americans and Canadians don't really use that word much).
but now I see our resilience to new things has its advantages
Did you mean "resistance to new things"? Or "resilience in the face of new things" as in, adaptability?
