Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) And that the majority of women have more power than men in the private life also means that they have more decision power over things like what the family will do on vacation, what clothes the children should wear, furnishings in the home, etc. Just interesting that science confirms all this.

Your claim of confirmation bias doesn't magically cause the study to be wrong. "Earth is round." *Finds a study which shows that the earth is round* "The existence of that study is just a confirmation bias. So the earth is flat." Ok now we know that earth is flat. Thank you for making me realize it. Edited December 8, 2020 by Blackhawk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 8, 2020 @Blackhawk I don't know, maybe you can say that the majority of women in Sweden have more power, but then there is Islam, eastern religions, castes, arranged marriage, patriarchy, that is far more wide spread than gender equality.

Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) "science finally proved that I'm justified in my victim mentality" If you had stumbled across a study that said that men have more power "in the most important area" would you've posted it here too?

Hypothetical scenario. With that logic you can also dismiss all studies which shows that earth is round, etc. This isn't about me. Just read the fucking study with neutral eyes. How hard can it be. Ironically enough it's you guys who warp something which is supposed to be neutral and informative into a thing about me, so you dismiss it. "Nope the study is wrong because Blackhawk has problems with women and he told us about the study". Whatever. I feeI that I'm done with you guys. I will try to stop posting here.

I see now how people are projecting their shit on a study which actually is neutral and informative. And seeing it through their colored glasses. So this is how it happens. It's obviously not entirely neutral and objective, but it's clearly much more neutral and objective than the shitstorm here.

Yeah you know I'm right. So stop with that shit. This isn't a advertisement for you. And also all other awesome men: stop it. You just come here to show off.

Posted December 8, 2020 This is a self-improvement forum. The idea is to, like, improve yourself, rather than making up excuses for why you can't. Change yourself so girls want you. This idea never even occured to your brilliant scientists. Self-improvement is a non-zero sum game. It makes no difference what the others guys are doing. Just improve yourself. There are millions of single women just waiting for a great guy to come along. A great guy is not born, he is self-made. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

There is also attraction, attention and the lens of perception one wears. There are reasons why these types of "studies" are "happening to pop up" in front of your face. It's not random popping up and detached, objective observation happening. There are other forces at play, yet a mind would need to expand beyond it's current conscious level to become aware of it and observe it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 8, 2020 18 hours ago, Roy said: Because of the sex marketplace. Relationships have a lot of factors but the main base reason we get into relationships is because you want a steady supply of sex/ability to produce children. Women are the gatekeeps because they are only willing to give so much, while men are ravenous with how much they want. This creates a leverage of power for women because men are willing to lower their standards to get what they want more than women are. In other words, women are smarter and respect themselves more on average lmao, so men are literally shooting themselves in the foot and sabotaging their own position by being so horny. That only explains one part of it though. Another huge part of the value imbalance is everyone is selfish and always wants a partner who is better than them. Unless you're a narcissist I guess. Women are not "smarter" in this context, this is just biology. A man can be very attracted to woman that he considers less attractive than him. Like a "9 male" can be very attracted by a "7 female". The opposite is not true. Women seem to be attracted only to men they consider at least as attractive as them. Though a hot woman told me once that when she ovulates, she feels like she could sleep with anyone, so who knows ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) @Blackhawk Try semen retention for a few weeks or months. It will change your relationships with women and people in general and maybe change your perspective on this. And if you start approaching some girls as well that is even better !

Posted December 8, 2020 I didn't read the article. It's too long, and too formal.
