If you want to marry a girl who's more like a man/nerd, go for it. I am speaking from the perspective of masculine guys who like feminine girls. The degree of your polarity determines what you want/need. There are traps on both ends. There is a trap in dating too feminine, then she's too dramatic and irrational. There is a trap in dating too masculine, then she's too much like you. Find your sweet spot. Personally I don't need a girl who's a philosopher because I already got that handled.

Both Your entire nervous system is shaped by survival. All your sexual desires are obviously pure survival, or else you'd buy a goat and stick your dick in it. Where you stick your dick is purely a matter of survival. Since it makes no difference otherwise. Contemplate why you prefer a human over a goat. Some things are so obvious they go overlooked.

@Preety_India Girls can use logic, but when forced to choose between brutal truth and saving feelings, you will tend to choose to save feelings. It's a fundamental feminine bias. Not good or bad, just is.

Then you've misunderstood. Survival isn't bad. It's inescapable. We talk about survival a lot because you're completely wrapped up in it without realizing it. And there's nowhere else to go.

@AtheisticNonduality That's exactly what I warned you against. Stop looking for a woman who acts like a man. It's a trap. Or, hey, if you want to bang Sam Harris, go for it. I don't care. It's your dick.

Aahahahaha.... Ego wants an 25,000 word essay to convince it that ego isn't real

I don't know. I'm not some MBTI expert.

Before one can soar with the eagles one must first realize oneself as a pig, sleeping in the mud along with all the other pigs

This dude knows how to milk that sweet satire and effortlessly deconstruct each talking point.

This dude is way funnier.

BINGO. Stop right there

@lmfao But the whole appeal of a woman (from a guy's POV) is that she's sweet and motherly, not a logic nerd. You are attracted to her precisely because she's not a mathematics professor. You're not looking to fuck Sam Harris. It's important as a guy to realize that you want your woman to be feminine and to embrace the trade-offs that come with that. Don't use a woman to get to truth. Arrive at truth on your own and enjoy the woman for other things.

I never said anything about insulting women. To have sex with lots of women it certainly helps to be really good a lying and manipulating them emotionally. I'm an NOT saying you should do that. I'm simply telling you how sex works and what I personally avoided and sacrificed sex for. If I wanted to emotionally manipulate women, I would have way more sex. That's just a fact. And there should not be anything surprising about this. If I was more selfish, more assertive, I would get more sex and women would find me more attractive, at least in the short-term. The entire point of manipulation -- whether it be of women or customers or politicians -- is that it gets you way more material results than you would otherwise get. Of course there will be karma that goes along with it in the long-term. I am not telling anyone how to behave. I am just describing trade-offs that exist. One of my ex-girlfriends was handcuffed to a door for a month and fucked at gunpoint every night until she escaped. Extreme, yeah. But that's assertiveness for ya. So be careful what you wish for when you want an assertive man. A really assertive man will not mind fucking you at gunpoint. Assertiveness is like spicy food. How hot can you handle? Bite a Habanero and you'll get burned. If I manipulated my customers more, I would earn way more money too! Surprise, surprise! Looky how the world works. If manipulation did not have massive material rewards, it would not exist.

Oh, easily. I can think of 5 women off the top of my head who I could have slept with (but didn't) if all I cared about was sleeping with them and didn't care about hurting them through pump and dump. In pickup situations, being highly assertive to the point of obnoxiousness and sociopathy will increase your results by 5-10x. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WuC3DE_RHI There is a direct inverse correlation between how much you care about a girls feelings and how many girls you bang. I've met guys who have slept with 100, 200, 300 girls. What's their secret? They give zero shits about the girls feelings. Zero.

Most people ain't speaking TRUTH, so we don't have very good mortality statistics If you told your boss the truth he would almost certainly fire you Girls are more biased to feelings. A mother's job is not to tell the child the truth but to make it feel loved. Conversely with father. But most men are still so full of shit that it's close to a toss up. If women are 1% truthful on average. Men are 1.5%. So in absolute terms the difference is minor. Constant lying is the default condition of mankind.

She didn't accuse him of cat calling, she made an analogy. The way Shapiro tried to bait AOC with money is cringe as fuck. Trying to make her look like a cheap whore. She properly called him out on it.

Read what's on my book list. Don't waste time on second-rate minds.

When you teach deep truths, egos will look for every way possible to demonize the messenger. To a big ego truth looks like evil. You deal with it by grounding yourself in truth, love, and consciousness. You need a very strong sense of what you want to accomplish in the world and stick to it without allowing anyone to distract you. Once you find your LP, the whole world will conspire to distract you from actualizing it. And you must develop enough strength and focus to say NO to all the distractions. See, those 3 hrs you wasted reading YT comments you could have invested in doing the personal development work you know works. Fundamentally, the reason you feel bad here is because you are not operating on internal truth but rather looking for external validation of truth. You want and even need others to tell you that you're on the right path and doing good. So you keep pinging them for validation and when they deny you that validation you feel bad. You have not yet learned to take fully ownership of the truth as a personal, internal compass that requires no external validation or approval. See, you want to ping others for validation of truth and goodness, but what you don't yet grasp is that everyone you ping are devils. If you ping a devil for truth, he will, of course, tell you that it's false and evil. The only thing a devil can validate for you is falsehood and selfishness. Find the Truth independently of all humans and ground yourself in it as deeply as possible. Then use that to shine light on the devils. God does not ask a devil if God is good. God's goodness is self-evident to God. And if it isn't, he isn't God, he's a devil.

@trenton Cat caller? Who is seriously accusing him of that??? These videos are satire.

We are talking about attraction. When it comes to attraction in food, burgers, fries, and pizza is exactly what people crave despite all their fancy talk of health. It is possible to transcend lower desires. Of course. But I will never count on people doing so. When a guy is attracting women, he's not gonna tailor his game to the 1 in 100 female saints. He's gonna tailor his game to average women.

You need to distinguish between assertiveness and being rude. Being rude is not what attracts women. Being assertive is. You can be assertive without being rude. Although assertiveness often comes with collateral damage to others and the woman will get damaged by it too. By definition, highly assertive people will step on everyone, including you. So don't act surprised when he steps on your heart a bit.

Who she is no longer sleeping with

No, but people do respect strength and follow it. If you assemble a group of 10 random people and you are the strongest in the group, they will follow you. What we really mean by "asshole" is someone who asserts his agenda on the world and doesn't compromise.

Attraction is a short-term thing. It's not about long-term sustainability. What you are attracted to has nothing to do with what is best for you in the long-term.

Agreed Yes Disagree. The lion run amok is still highly attractive. Although dangerous. And creepiness cuts across both categories. Weak and submissive men are some of the biggest creepers. This puts too much blame on the asshole. The deeper truth which women do not want to admit is that they are turned on by assholes. Assholes aren't hiding that they're assholes. They are openly assholes and that's what turns you on. Women are attracted to strong men. Strong men tend to be assholes, which is what helps them be strong. The end. If I was willing to be more of an asshole, I would get laid 3x as much. That is the reality of how this works. The rest is fluffy words that make you feel good about yourself.
