So Men Are - Lazy?
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
The government will pay for their healthcare, for their retirement benefits, it will pay for their kids' dentistry, everything, right?
The government will pay for everything, so they can aim as high as they want, and then there's a whole industry of insulting men because men are making rational choices, right?
There's a whole industry.
It's called feminism, it's called leftism, it's called a wide variety of things, but there's this whole industry that has grown up to shield women from the consequences of their own bad choices.
By insulting men.
Right?
The Peter Pan syndrome.
Well, where did the Peter Pan syndrome come from?
This is men who don't grow up.
Well, men are not allowed to grow up because men are denied, many men are denied decent jobs and they have no particular opportunity for housing and women have been poisoned against them.
Men grew up in order to become fathers, husbands and fathers.
And if there's no real possibility of becoming a husband and a father, why would you bother growing up?
So men are lazy.
Well, men work hard because we have a 10 to 1 ratio providing Resources to wives and children as opposed to what we need to live on ourselves.
So it's not that we're lazy.
It's just that why work extra hard if you don't have a wife and kids?
Well, maybe you'll work harder when you're younger because you want to date and you've got to pay to play, right?
But yeah, I mean, this is why, I mean, people talk about the sort of birth rate crisis and I mean, there's lots of stuff that's going on.
But the most foundational thing is that Men defer to women and pay for women, and in return, women give children to society.
But if women can get resources without providing children, we know statistically they don't provide children in general, and if women can get the benefits of commitment without the drawbacks of commitment, so the benefits of commitment for women are men who will pay your bills, like you know that famous meme.
Like, hear me out.
It's only fans, but you have only one fan, and he pays everything for your whole life.
But there's a woman, picture of a woman with kids, right?
So, women, in order to gain resources, provide children.
Because men have evolved to provide extra resources for the sake of children.
So, a woman gets, she gets paid for herself on the grounds or on the basis of providing children to the man.
If she provides sex without children, then the man will generally choose that.
And, of course, the last thing I'll say is, of course, as we know, as men and women get into their 30s, the value of men goes up and the value of women goes down.
Early, it's the reverse, of course.
In their early 20s, the value of women is astronomical.
The value of men is very low because they're broke.
Men get into their 30s.
Women get into their 30s, then the reverse happens, right?
So women aimed high in their 20s and men aim high in their 30s.
But men aiming high in their 30s means getting Relatively unspoiled, untraumatized, unbroken up with, unbroken women in their early to mid-20s, which of course is then ferociously attacked by all of the, oh, it's like pedophilia, man.
What would you have in common?
It's like, sorry, man, marriage isn't about having things in common.
I mean, evolutionarily speaking, it's just about who's got the most resources and who's got the most fertility.
And it's very unusual in...
And in history, it's very unusual for there to be a lot of successful quality available men in their 30s.
That's like unheard of because they would have been locked in and held onto by women throughout their 20s and 30s, right?
So the fact that there's all of this is really unusual.
So all of this flips around and then you end up with a cohort of incredibly bitter women and wisdom is fine unless it's too late.
And I... You know, we can get mad at this if we want.
It's just a simple fact of human nature.
Wisdom is fine, unless it's too late, right?
I mean, David Lynch quit smoking in 2022 after, like, starting smoking at the age of eight.
Probably too late to save him, right?
I mean, I remember reading this article that was a Q&A with a doctor in the Toronto Star, like, I don't know, 40 years ago or whatever, and it was like...
I was in an article, and the guy said, yeah, I quit smoking.
I'm in my late 50s.
My doctor says it's not really going to do much for my health, but, you know, I was tired of stinking and spending money and taxes are too high and all of that kind of stuff, right?
So it's too late, right?
I mean, every smoker dying of smoking smokes his last cigarette, right?
And then after that, he's, quote, quit, but it's too late to save him, right?
And so for women to try to wiser, make better decisions in their late 30s, it's too late.
It's too late.
For women to say, if I expect a man to provide value to me, I have to provide value to a man other than sex and status.
Because sex and status don't make children.
Sex and status don't make children.
Marriage, pair bonding, and fertility, that makes children.
So, for women in their late 30s to suddenly say, oh my gosh, you know, I need to...
Well, of course, men, we're not stupid, right?
I mean, there's this whole thing that portrays men as stupid.
Men are cunning like foxes, right?
And really...
Really smart.
And we look at a woman in her late 30s and say, oh, now she wants to cooperate and be nice and now she seems positive about men and so on.
And it's like, no, she's just running out of time.
Like, it's not believable.
It's not a real thing.
I mean, I've said this before, but it's kind of like there's this endless scenes in movies where the good guy, the bad guy has the gun and he's dominating the good guy and then the good guy gets a hold of the gun and the bad guy's like, whoa, hey, no violence.
Let's talk things through, man.
I was kidding, you know, but nobody thinks that it's a change of heart.
It's just a change of power.
It's not a change of heart.
It's just a change of power.
So, women have the upper hand when men are young, and men have the upper hand when you get into your late 30s.
And you see these, again, I don't know if it's a psyop, I don't know if it's real, but you see these women, like, with tears, like, oh, what's so wrong with me?
Why is it?
I'm over 40, but I, you know, I have a nice house, I cook.
I'm a good conversationalist.
I make good money.
Why can't I get a boyfriend?
It's like, because that's not what boyfriends are for.
Boyfriends are for test driving, the father of your children.
And nobody can father your children.
Everybody thinks that sex is about them.
Dating is about them.
No, this is all about children.
It's all about the production and having of children.
Uncouple that.
Society cannot sustain.
All right.
I hope that helps clarify things.
It's just a lesson.
You know, our current society is just an inoculation, a giant inoculation mechanism against future societies doing things this completely retardedly.
All right.
Sorry about the long speech.
