Epilogue

I was going about my daily life, and heard from an earshot while I was in a public place, a man telling some nearby women that he would never get married, and specifically saying that marriage is a sham in America - right in front of them with boldness. Of course, I had to hear this, so I parked myself inconspicuously nearby.

I don't know what sparked the situation, but he gave a great lecture, including the anti-male bias that is so prevalent in American culture.

The real kicker was, that he wasn't an old curmudgeon, or an embittered middle aged divorced man, but a young man, the all American type to say.

And so, I realized my work is done. I can go back to life apart from blogging.

Whether this man knew of MGTOW or not, he definitely was spot on in everything he was saying, and I was smirking with delight, thoroughly enjoying his lecture on reality to the womenfolk in his presence.

Also, I see the career chicks, having been downsized by the current economic collapse of sorts - and all ages at that (20's, 30's and 40's), now asking me for references and job leads, I'm sure they will be asking to stay in my most opulent manor as soon as they can't pay their rent or get their houses foreclosed.

Interesting how such "strong and independent" women really are when the bottom falls out. I'm sure Section 8 housing will be there to provide accommodations for them.

And men like me, we've gone to enjoy life. Tomorrow has arrived.

Part 5 --- The Last Exit To Super Convergence

I think every man with goals and visions in life awaits the time for super convergence - when all his many plans come together in a marvelous symphony of realization. Our Guest Connaisseur, having experienced this of late, has left the building to go overseas permanently - and I'm next, checking out as well.

There used to be the buzz word "multi-tasking" - I don't hear it as much now, or maybe I hear it, but don't listen to it like most other things in the Western World as I fade to grey. Multi-tasking was/is always attributed to women doing better at it than men. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. When women multi-task their heads explode and they implode- I've seen this time and again with "strong" and "independent" career chicks. However, when men multi-task, they take efficiency to the next level and create the halcyon days to live in.

So now, my many plans are coming together as expected, and no sooner as with the recent elections in the US, that might usher in a wave of socialism on steroids.

The good news is, men can further go their own way as government will no doubt increase in size taking more single women and single moms into the government welfare harem, which you should use as an excuse with women still wanting to have it both ways, "Not my problem, lady", "Ask the government to help you", - while you slip out the door to a better future.

The bad news is, I think MRA's are going to be targeted more as they have a defined structure and can be attacked easier. However, for MGTOW, it is an amoeba that can change and shift with no rigid form.

Western Civilization, it seems, has also left the building to the East where it will become bigger and stronger than ever. Now, it might come back when the West realizes its own silliness of experimenting with futile ideologies, some sanity seems to be prevailing with the instance in New Zealand of the election of a conservative to the highest office.

Will the Western World be total crap, with dilapidated infrastructure, devastated economies, destitute people, and fourth world status? Wait a minute, I just described Detroit. Strike that, it already is in some parts.

I think what will happen is countries throughout the Western World will form stronger alliances and unions across the globe with Eastern nations like China, India, etc., to form an East-West synthesis - that will be based on sound economic, societal, and cultural principles shared by each. There will be some interesting times ahead.

As I write, Harvard has its own medical training program in India, more movies are filmed in the Czech Republic than Hollywood, and China is colonizing and sucking all the resources out of Africa (yet we do not hear "Oh, those evil Chinese colonialists exploiting Africans"- as we hear when Western nations do it) and of course, convert them to usable goods and sell them on the world market at a profit - that's how wealth is made, taking stuff out of the ground and converting it to usable other stuff.

Reversal

Well, now, isn't this interesting, as the mainly conservative United States has elected a liberal to run the show for 4 years, the liberal New Zealand has elected a conservative to run their show.

May you live in interesting times...

Part 4 --- The Global Nomad

Men explore, women nest. It goes back to the DNA of each - man the hunter, woman the gatherer. This is still why men like to hunt and fish - the call of the wild - even though the local supermarket is well stocked with meat and fish. This is also why women spend hours on end looking at everything and anything at the supermarket. Now, that's an interesting observation - man hunts through the supermarket, while woman gathers...look at the different ways men and women shop next time you buy groceries - unless you hunt and fish and live off the land like some of my neighbors...maybe I'm just lazy and should do likewise.

So that is a fundamental difference between man and woman - exploring and nesting. It is interesting to hear women that say they enjoy traveling places all over the world (as if they have the money and means), this can only be an aberration in our modern society with women becoming masculinized, and they must be daily convincing themselves they actually like it, when under normal circumstances they'd be nesting with a bunch of kids around.

Society has to offer man something to keep civilization running and it used to be that way prior to what we call the modern world - which basically is a very sophisticated primitive world dressed up in skyscrapers and neon lights to look different. McMansions are artificial caves, vehicles are horses and mules, and so on...anyway...large sums of money or property were given to the man by the father of a woman to basically unload her on the man. It was a trade, a simply business transaction, the father paying the man for taking the liability of having a woman, and the subsequent offspring thereof.

Now, with such a business transaction rendered null and void by governments, the governments of Western nations more specifically, as they have deemed woman "independent" from such old dynamics, we find these governments rapidly going broke in the process and having to force men to take responsibility through increased taxes to support the welfare state - which is the welfare of the woman and her subsequent offspring - and without a fair exchange of goods nonetheless. The welfare system will collapse, sooner rather than later. Stay out of the blast radius.

With this in mind, men should be the new explorers of their own lives, until a deal worthy of a man's time and effort is able to convince him otherwise. Until then, the world is big, milk is selling at reduced price and the government owns the cows - so why bother being anything less than a global nomad - and it does not imply taking a bath once a month and living in a hut...unless that's your style to begin with...the philosophy is the key.

Part 3 --- The Ascendancy

In order to ascend the maddening crowds, one must first transcend his own pre-programmed notions that his environment has taught him and separate fantasy from reality. This tends to be the most difficult, but once overcome, leads to ultimate perception.

The maddening crowds want fantasy, not reality, it takes them out of their current miserable state of affairs. A type of drug to ease the pain of life. However, only by facing reality head on, and understanding the dynamics that govern it, can one ultimately transcend it. The world is a chess game, but people rather play checkers - and why not - it's a lot simpler game and easy on the mind - a fantasy from the reality of the chess game they are caught in.

Most holy writ pushes toward the transcendent, however, the unscrupulous among the religious use it to control the masses.

Most men can agree on a few principles to govern themselves, however, the power-hungry take the few principles and multiple them into elaborate sets of laws and codes to control the populous at large as they set themselves up as demagogues over them.

One law I'd like to see Congress pass is that there will be no more laws passed. I'm sure mass hysteria would break out among the people as they would consider this no more regulation of their lives they are so accustomed and conditioned to.

Society smoothly coaxes men to increase their liabilities in life through the normalization of the unnatural.

Is it natural for man to get married, have 2.5 kids, 2 SUV's, a McMansion, work as an automaton at a company, etc., as I see in my local suburban area? They call this type of man, a civilized one. I suppose I'm the barbarian then.

Take a step back 100 years or 1000 years, was it natural for a man to marry, have kids, and work himself to death in the relentless pursuit of biological propagation that he will never see to its ultimate fruition?

Vanity, I say.

Of course, if I'm a power-hungry type - the collective must grow - and I need men and women to make plenty of new people for my army to conquer in my name. Thus, I would have to somehow subvert the transcendence of holy writ and make the simple tribal laws complex as I unify everybody in order to govern such to serve my purpose of conquest. The Tokugawa shogunate did this quite well in medieval Japan...until Commodore Perry of the United States showed up (the disruptive technology at the time).

Sex is natural, offspring is the unintended consequence that man forgets as he is led by his hormones. I'm convinced man's worst enemy is his own DNA. His second worst enemy is the one that uses his DNA to control and manipulate him.

In any case, I'd rather be a global nomad, and it seems to be the preferred choice with technological advances ever increasing.

At the fundamental level, and throughout the history of man, you are either of the system, for the system, and by the system, or you are of yourself, for yourself, and by yourself.

It's a fine line between auto-genocide and auto-genesis.

Once this fundamental question is answered, then one can start the path to transcendence, and ultimately, ascendancy...however, those pesky barbarians at the gate and their rampant breeding could ruin it for me...unless they're tired of their systems they follow and desire a sense of enlightenment apart from the forced conditioning that makes them no better than cattle to be bred and multiplied for their collective's vain conquest of the material world.

Part 2 --- The Disruptive Technology

The swordsman was replaced by the rifleman, years of sword training were useless against a novice conscript with a rifle, let alone a machine gun. IBM was left in the 1950's when Apple deployed the personal computer to the market in the 1980's, and so on with disruptive technologies.

Disruptive technologies happen, and they happen again and again without recourse for those on the receiving end. The only light at the end of the tunnel for such is the freight train of reality.

As men opt out of the current system of matriarchal governance in the West - as they become the "disruptive technology" to speak - we see the ever increasing amount of women, politicos, organizations of all types, etc. blaming men for being "irresponsible" with "suspended adolescence", and totally ignoring the cause of such - which these people created in the first place, and, of course, furthers the disruptive technology.

Nobody thought the "disruptive technology" would manifest itself as the male gender going their own way for better living apart from society at large. But it is happening. And it will continue. Western society will have to change and adapt, or be left in the dust.

I am finding out evermore my presence alone is enough to cause a disruption around women, married men, chivalrous men, etc. Seeing somebody single, free, and happy (and extremely content and at peace for that matter) is a great disruption to the current system that demands atonement only through woman - the high priestess that modern man must sacrifice to in order to obtain salvation in a society gone mad.

Of course, men will win, as disruptive technologies always do - you're reading this post on a personal computer, not a mainframe.

Perspective 137

Our Guest Connaisseur writes:

For men, sexual fidelity of the woman is important - you've got to know they are YOUR kids, but emotional fidelity is not as big an issue. Man shares her with the kids - as being parents entails, so sharing her with his parents is no big deal. Woman, on the other hand, demands emotional fidelity, often more so than sexual fidelity. Women survive on emotionalism and sharing him with his parents is unacceptable, and his friends even more so. Thus she insults him, when in reality, it is her own selfishness showing. I'll have no part of this manipulative nonsense in today's modern woman. Parents, friends, etc., I've known them before her. She can adapt or be asked to leave.

Also, notice in life that when a woman says she is interested in what you think and feel, it really isn't about what you think and feel - about this or that, but what you think and feel about HER.

Part 1 --- The Meltdown

I had a career chick have a meltdown on me the other day at the office while I was spinning in my big executive chair contemplating world domination and hoping to buy Wall Street for the price of cheap cognac.

She was really quite nasty and angry at the whole world and somehow I was the target for her frustration, which I informed her boss to never let her out of his sight again because it is not my responsibility for her miserable life.

The masquerade is really over as I am starting to see. Such women can't even fake happiness or joy anymore as a manner of public decorum - and worse - they try to steal your real joy and happiness! Everybody has to be miserable like them, and they hate those that aren't. It is a matter of their own self-hatred of themselves that they project on others.

I guess it is justified as the societal engineers of the Anglosphere tried to turn them into men and against men in a power move to foster their dependency on the state, and like an experiment gone horribly wrong, these women are the living result of it.

Of course, the corollary is men have been made to operate like women, in which has only promoted confusion among them as well. The modern man is to be effeminate and docile, which adds little comfort to the modern woman as she is more masculine than he.

The Real Man (TM), being defined by the modern woman as chivalrous - meaning such a man must cater to the woman's worldview and passing whims - is a figment of her imagination, a dream of mythological proportion to be confined to romance novels which she fantasizes about during her office hours.

So with this symphony of confusion all described above, we find the root cause of the modern woman's wrath.

Men, being confused as well, accept the chivalrous man as the definition of a Real Man(TM) - since men think the woman is the default moral compass - "If woman says it, it must be right and true". Thus, we see such men with a self-masochistic endeavor to bear all this implosion and wrath from the modern woman on themselves...and they are welcome to enjoy this whirlwind of chaos from these women - while I and many others simply sit back and watch the meltdown...preferably from an undisclosed location outside the Anglosphere to avoid severe radioactive contamination.

On the other hand, everybody has a choice - men and women, in whether to follow the societal engineers' "recommendations" for a gender neutral society or not. The system can only last as long as those who believe it in.

Choices now dictate the future, and choices past dictate the present. Hence, that is where the modern woman is found, an epitome of bad choices which can't effectively be blamed on anybody or anything else - how so ever she might try.

She'll scream the cliche "No Good Men Left" or demand "commitment" and "responsibility" from men at large, but men don't care anymore, they've tuned out, dropped out, and tuned in to better things that benefit themselves.

Such modern women are best left to meltdown, completely and finally, as there is no need to get involved in something of this magnitude - as it would destroy you in the process.

Strike Capability

The discerning man will view his position in life in terms of first and second strike capabilities in anything he endeavors in - or in other words, positions of strength.

And positions of strength are especially important in what has become the most dangerous game - the dating and mating game in America and the greater Anglosphere.

A bachelor living in the aforementioned societies maintains first strike capability, and a married man maintains - and rather poorly - second strike capability.

As a bachelor, having first strike capability - and using it - has been instrumental in keeping my security and peace of mind intact with the women I have come across.

Overt man-hating feminists are not the problem, they can be seen miles away and dealt with quickly and swiftly for who they are, but covert feminists or more aptly called conservative/traditional women are the main problem I have encountered.

What starts off pleasant and enjoyable, ends up with me launching nukes (figuratively, of course) and ridding myself of these women from my life.

Every conservative/traditional woman that I have had a relationship with has always tried to control, manipulate, and change me and my life. They cannot live and let live. However, since I have first strike capability being a glorious bachelor, I deal with them accordingly and they are dismissed promptly from my presence of greatness.

The married man does not fair so well. He must either submit to the controlling entity his wife has become and alter his life, his dreams, and his goals to her will - or suffer the consequences of her first strike capability - which she now maintains as he lost his first strike capability through the marriage contract. An attempt at using his second strike capability is rather vain and empty, as she can bear the overwhelming force of the government, the court, and the host of professionals to destroy him permanently and completely in the first strike.

And that is the reality men find themselves in America and the greater Anglosphere - you either maintain first strike capability as a bachelor and deploy it at will or have a very poor second strike capability as a married man and suffer severe losses.

A Matter Of Games

NiceGuy plays Chess with woman, but woman is playing Monopoly - especially when she is young.

He's trying to figure her moves out, and she is simply looking for Board Walk and Park Place - which Bad Guy is expressing in his attitude, appearance, and DNA.

NiceGuy simply is playing Chess on a Monopoly Board, and that is where his error lies.

Bad Guy is good at Monopoly and bankrupts the woman, usually leaving her with feral offspring as well. When woman hits her 30's - she will start playing Chess, instead of Monopoly.

NiceGuy, always being a step behind, realizes that the woman was playing Monopoly, so he starts playing Monopoly, but the woman is now playing Chess - he thinks he is winning as he finally gets the girl - and sometimes Bad Guy's offspring as a surprise.

NiceGuy has lost at Monopoly AND at Chess.

Play Monopoly when you are young and you'll have no problem finding women at your doorstep...I don't think I owned Board Walk or Park Place, but I came close - having Pacific Avenue - and when you start reaching your 30's - start playing Chess.

NiceGuy does the reverse and ends up in frustration, his defeat is complete as a shell of a man via marriage, then divorce - Global Thermonuclear War to say - all because he was playing Chess on a Monopoly Board, and Monopoly on a Chessboard.

Woman starts with Monopoly and sees what she can get, then moves to Chess and sees what she can checkmate.

Smart men will play Monopoly with one hand and Chess with the other - and when you reach your 30's you'll have Board Walk and Park Place and the 20 year olds to go with it and you'll have checkmated the 30 year olds (and older) being the Chessmaster...and you'll be playing both games simultaneously also for the cases where woman decides to switch (like the older woman with the younger guy - she wants another round of Monopoly, and you being young expressing Board Walk and Park Place in your youth and energy will be an attractive choice - if you're into that).

Research: Single Men Are Healthy

Interesting article here, however, we have always stated on the great and awesome Mirror that single men are far healthier (and much happier) than married men. Nobody should ever doubt this - just go to any box big retail store in the US and watch the married land whales swim about the aisles - that is empirical evidence enough.

Of course, the article has to include the matriarchal disclaimer that marriage is still meaningful, which flies in the face of any sane man that knows better than to believe such nonsense, as marriage for a man in the US is the quickest way to total and complete self-destruction - financially, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentality - per the marriage/divorce industry racket to make a man a wage slave for life to a woman enforced by the state.

Perspective Review

An interesting article, Sex And The College Girl, written in 1957, further emphasizes our Guest Connaisseur's post in Perspective 131 :

That is why we must carefully consider any type of mythical moral superiority that we might impart on women of yesteryear - as I have seen some younger men do on various forums (the eyes of the Mirror scan to and fro across the whole earth) - commenting that women were better back then than now.

I will clarify this also:

When women were ladies, us older men over-looked their bad side - their "good" outweighed their "bad" to say. They were not morally superior, just better behaved that we could tolerate them more often than not.

Note the following from the above article:

Sleeping around is a risky business, emotionally, physically, and morally, and this is no light undertaking. I have never really understood why it is considered to be so easy for girls to say yes, particularly to four different men over a period of two weeks.

Hmm...sounds like women today.

It is so easy to become tied up with old Joe, even though he is rather a bore, and avoid those nightmarish Saturday nights home with the girls. But the trouble is, once the relationship with Joe has become an established thing, getting out of it again (when Joe's conversation begins to have the stimulating effect of a dose of Seconal) is about as easy as climbing out of a mud swamp. Joe objects; how about the spring prom? A friend of mine, trying to rid herself of such a relationship, told me she felt bad about "flushing" old Joe, since he was really such a nice person. She worried for a long time, then prepared the most understanding, sensitive, kind speech she could think of, taking into account his tender feelings and possible indignation.

The classic flushing. Poor NiceGuy, even in the 50's he still finished last.

The modern American female is one of the most discussed, written-about, sore subjects to come along in ages. She has been said to be domineering, frigid, neurotic, repressed, and unfeminine. She tries to do everything at once and doesn't succeed in doing anything very well. Her problems are familiar to everyone, and, naturally, her most articulate critics are men.

Yep, you got that right...and she still is.

The article goes on about woman's manipulation and maneuvers in the area of fraternity dynamics to sort out the best mate, and how woman eventually settles for the security of a potential wage slave sucker when all else fails.

Along with this, it continues and finishes with the cultural expectations and challenges that such a woman of that time faces...the "good guy" and "bad guy" dilemma for woman....her use of sexuality to attract a mate - then be coy about it, and it also includes an example of the "herd" or "consensus" mentality that women are known for in making decisions (which, as a side note, has actually become the norm in many businesses as a "consensus" or "herd" arrives at a business decision instead of a leader [business unit manager, division manager, even CEO] making the decision with some advisement of key managers).

Perspective 135

Our Guest Connaisseur writes:

The US Air Force did a study to answer a basic question:

Where's the best place to look to find people who can become pilots?

The answer was surprising: Art school.

Artists think in three-dimensions and have a high level of situational awareness.

There was a fighter pilot, who always introduced himself as an artist. He was not manly enough for the conservative women per his introduction, but later, after these women found out he was a fighter pilot - things changed. He was the manly superstar sought after by conservative women. Conversely, he was attractive to liberal women as an artist...until they found out about his fighter pilot background.

Manliness is not mutually exclusively - one can be both an artist and a warrior and be manly.

Conservatively speaking, woman looks for security first, and second, and third, etc. - for her and her offspring. It runs constantly through her DNA. In this case, a fighter pilot, ready to drop bombs and fire missiles on the enemy for the security of the woman...or so her DNA tells her.

The trend supposedly of the modern woman is that of demanding the "return" of the manly man - the "retrosexual" as called in pop culture of the day. Gone is the effeminate man, the "metrosexual" so mass produced in the 1990's and the early 2000's as the model man for modern woman.

Modern woman has realized that the mextrosexual might not be good in battle to protect her and her offspring...maybe at the salon...but barbarians tend not to get manicures or their hair done.

So where is the manly man?...as the modern woman would bemoan - along with her following complaint of no good men left. He might be off pursuing artistry...and might not want to have anything to do with the modern woman - liberal or conservative...and her mutually exclusive demands. The good, manly man has left her out.

All Your Base Are STILL Belong To Us

Far beyond Zero Wing, the video game market continues to grow, over 50% from last year.

Young men (including yours truly) continue to enjoy video games in a state of "suspended adolescence" as we continue to keep our money for the things we want and enjoy - especially video games - instead of getting trapped in the wealth transfer system of the matriarchy (marriage/divorce industry, child support, alimony, palimony, etc).

Newspapers, television, and movies continue to plummet as expected, not only because they sucked to being with, but their anti-male agenda really accelerated their demise into oblivion. It's one thing to sell a crappy product, but to sell a crappy product and insult the customer simultaneously - that's a business plan for absolute failure. Of course, in consequence, men are voting with their money and buying a better product - Metal Gear Solid 4 - for example.

Pontiac - So Exciting I Bought A Mercedes

General Motor's division called "Pontiac" used to have a motto (maybe they still do) that stated "We Build Excitement". Aside from Knight Rider (the longest running Pontiac Car Commercial in history for a car you couldn't buy), if Pontiacs were "excitement", then many people passed on the "excitement" to instead buy Mercedes.

And if Pontiac was General Motors' experimental division, than it was an experiment gone horribly wrong.

Oh my God!

It looks like a car! It's the second coming of Harley Earl!

Only recently do Pontiac's look actually like cars, before that, they looked like a bad rendition of a Salvador Dali painting on wheels.

Even with Pontiacs looking better (they went from looking like scrambled eggs on wheels to now whole eggs on wheels), I would not be caught dead in one.

The acronym still holds true:

PONTIAC = People Obviously Notice That It's Absolute Crap

Most people that drive Pontiac's are women. No doubt they feel the "excitement" driving one - or was it my Mercedes passing them on the highway or my friend in his Porsche - as they saw MONEY in automobile form.

There are 5 main cars that American women drive, and you should avoid such women that drive them:

1) Pontiac

Women who drive Pontiacs are usually those career women that can't afford BMW's. They act as if their Pontiac is a BMW, which they find out on the highway or multiple breakdowns in trying to drive it like a BMW, that it's most definitely not. These women usually have identity issues, and have unrealistic expectations in life, like their Pontiac. These women are the ones that say "There are no good men left", as they contemplate their 40's and beyond alone with a cat (or an old Pontiac).

2) BMW

Women who drive BMW's were in times past called "young urban professionals" or "yuppies" - they probably are still called that, at least that is what I still call them...alas...I am carbon-14 dating myself here, and the same was true for men that drove BMW's.

In any case, I think of this woman doctor down the street from me that I told I would not date her because:

1) She is a "yuppie".
2) As standard operating procedure, I don't date professional women - doctors, lawyers, "educators", etc.

The scowl on her face was a Kodak moment. And don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful either, sweetheart. I am to admired and desired, but like a masterpiece in a museum - hands off the greatness.

These women also had fathers that would not or could not afford to buy them a Mercedes. These women still think they are in a Beverly Hills 90210 scene and also think yuppies are cool. (90210 was canceled, and yuppies were never cool). These women also feel shafted in the material world ever since that traumatic experience of being in high school and having to drive a compact import while all the popular girls had Mercedes.

You will need a lot of money to satisfy these types of women, and you better buy her a Mercedes ASAP or she will divorce you and take yours.

3) Ford (Volvo)

Ford owns Volvo. Women think that if they buy a Volvo they are getting a sophisticated Swedish feminist car, when in reality they are buying a very overpriced Ford. Both companies have shown themselves to be anti-male (along with General Motors I might add), and in doing so, lost half their market share automatically to their competitors. Yeah, like 50% of your market opportunities are men, and by your anti-male agenda you wonder why your sales suck and your company is going broke...if not already.

Women that drive Ford's are up and coming feminists - usually college age feminists in their little compact Focus feeling all liberated as they drive in these vehicles modeled after a cockroach...on wheels. Another brilliant design by Ford. I'm sure this car was designed by some disgruntled engineer at Ford to get back at the company, and he is laughing his ass off - "Ha, I really stuck it to Ford this time, I designed a car to look like a cockroach, and they went and mass produced it!" I also have seen some very old and ugly women drive these cockroach looking cars as well...I guess it fits them. Now, women that drive Volvo's are usually established feminist lawyers or "educators". Volvo sounds a lot like "vulva" so they probably think it is an one giant vulva on wheels. Needless to say, avoid these women at all costs.

4) Chevrolet

Usually professional sales type women drive these cars, these women are very similar to women that drive Pontiac's. These women tend to be mainly conservative women, or shall I say, "reformed party girls", in their mid to late 30's, and expect a real man to move them up to the Cadillac class. Go at it champ...I mean...chump. If she is driving a Corvette, she got it from her ex-husband.

5) Chrysler

Particularly, the Chrysler Sebring, the ultimate car for the young, hip, and trendy liberated woman (otherwise known as the "drunk party girl") who wants to look cool driving drunk playing loud pop culture music after a hard night of clubbing, while the blue lights (police) close in on her. She missed hooking up with the guy in the Jeep that night, because he found out she had a couple STD's, and dropped her faster than his Jeep's transmission. Friends don't let friends hook up with women that drive Sebrings.

Dishonorable Mention

Volkswagen

Women that drive VW's are those that think they are "European" as they simultaneously also act like hippies from the 60's. Driving a VW does not make you European as if a European driving a Buick would make him an American. Jerry Garcia is dead, let him rest in peace, lest he come out of his grave and smack you senseless for your pseudo-hippism in your pathetic effort to be "hippy" and "retro" with your pseudo-intellectual friends you meet at Starbuck's daily. If you value your well-being and sanity, avoid these women, lest your brain melt from their inane philosophies of life.

Save The Whales

I've noticed in the past two years or so, a lot of "conservative" or "traditional" women writing books about misandry in American culture.

While this is well and good, and strategically men should use these women to their advantage in their men's rights advocacy, one should question why now, after 20 or so years of men saying the same thing, these women start to be "advocates" for men's rights.

They did not before, as they were feminists themselves to some degree taking advantage of women's liberation and the traditional benefits offered to them by men and still do to date, but now, these "conservative" or "traditional" women have sons and see the misandry that their sons face in the anti-male culture of America. It could also be they have daughters as well who are fast becoming "liberated" as promiscuous tarts laden with STD's, or just as large as whales as "big" has become "beautiful" - well, only to the Oprahified masses.

It is self-serving at its finest. These women are looking after their progeny first, not men's rights or men in general, it just happens to work for them in order to protect and secure the best for their progeny and ultimately for themselves by having a secure society to live in on the backs of men - who they have seriously under appreciated to say the least in the company of the most radical man-hating feminists - and are now in damage control mode with such books on misandry through their realization of "Oh no!, the men have left the building!" "Who will maintain it now!" "Where did my slaves go!"

The writing is on the wall, a generation of young men going their own way, being free and independent from the traditional economic slavery to women, and well, these "conservative" or "traditional" women can't have that!

So they write these books with false sincerity to men to kiss and make up, however, it is not that easy. Maybe the NiceGuy will compromise with these "conservative" or "traditional" women, as he has always compromised throughout history, wanting the security of a wife to fit into "society" as his mind has constructed it to be, and surrendering his liberty as a man to chart his own destiny - but we know the end of such - just go to a big box retail store, and behold the shells of men that walk the aisles with these "conservative" or "traditional" whales...err...I mean, women. Now, on the contrary, the hardened, indifferent man will laugh and continue in his grand pursuits in life giving no time to such "conservative" or "traditional" women that he may encounter. His memory does not fade that quickly, and his liberty to chart his destiny is his most valuable possession.

Moreover, as it was put by a female "conservative" or "traditional" author describing young men as "perpetual adolescents who see no point in growing up,"- that's code for playing video games and watching Ninja Warrior on TV via Japanese broadcast - little does this author realize that young men are doing much more than that. They are changing the way the game is played, simply put "My way, or the highway".

Some men's rights advocates might be playing "Let's make a deal." with feminists (conservative, liberal, or otherwise), but there is a segment of men simply stating "This is the deal." Take it or leave it, 'cause I have a grand life to enjoy, and will not tolerate a woman as a liability (which feminism reduced women to in our modern age - among other things - like a sexual commodity to note off hand).

This is worthy of consideration with these "conservative" or "traditional" women, because false sincerity is all too common in our effeminate society. They can save the males all they want, but I'm one man that does not need them - or saving by them.

Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit Of Happiness

This Independence Day it is important that we remind of ourselves of "Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit Of Happiness".

Ask yourself if you are doing this for YOU or if you are doing this for SOMEBODY ELSE.

The feminized modern American culture is quite off course from the essential founding, and pushes men to constantly (through shaming techniques, Real Man (TM) arguments, etc.) to be beasts of burden to the matriarchy so prevalent throughout, instead of individuals with souls that have the inalienable right to "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness."

As the great Thucydides says:

"The secret of happiness is freedom. And the secret of freedom is courage."

Let us continue to pursue life, liberty, and happiness with greatness in mind.

The Flow of Change

Darren writes:

A zen master once said 'We don't have to learn when to let things go, we just have to realise when they've already gone'.

Well, this morning the site I've been running for four years was gone. Or, to be more accurate, it's domain name was. The domain hosting company should have auto-renewed it, or emailed me to tell me to renew it. They didn't, and some slimeball guy snapped it up, it seems with a view to charging me a small fortune to get it back.

Well he can dream on, as I'm not paying a penny, and I'm not panicking.

Why? Because its not the domain name itself that was valuable. Its the information I put on it (which I've still got), and the other men who link to me. You see, probably about 80% of the incoming traffic to my site comes from a small number of super-sites (like this one). Its the 80:20 law in action (i.e. in many situations in life, the majority of results flow from a minority of causes). So, I only have to alert those super-sites, and I can redirect the flow of traffic to whatever new domain I choose. But more than that, I'm not panicking because I like change. Its invigorating.

Life is full of change. Its the only constant. You just have to learn to ride it, like a surfer on a wave.

My site is currently at http://ct4m.blogspot.com/ until I decide on its new name.

(Thanks to the enigmatic owner of this fine site for inviting me here)

Perspective 134

Our Guest Connaisseur writes:

Man will only romance a woman who acts like a woman. Said another way, the more she acts like a man the less reason he has to romance her, and the more she acts like a woman the more reason he has to romance her.

Modern woman has essentially abandoned femininity and acts masculine.

The result?

The lowest proposal rate in written history, and the highest divorce rate in written history.

These statistics are not because men have changed, but because women have changed. Most of them now act like men and wonder why men aren't romancing them.

Hence, I think love is really not possible with the modern woman. Lust, yes; infatuation, yes; deception, most certainly; but love? No.

From a male point of view a relationship with western woman of today is at best an unpleasant compromise. "Love" I think is like "fairness" - an artificial construct, good perhaps, but a goal more than reality.

True love went out the window when feminism came in. For better or worse a man wants to spend his personal time with a feminine woman, not a masculinized female competitor. That is not what makes his world go around.

Also, we need to make note, as we all have seen, man has become feminized, or more aptly put - the rise of the epidemic of the NiceGuy - during this masculinizing of woman in our modern era.

Then you have us on this blog, we're sitting on the sidelines watching the show, or more perhaps giving a play by play analysis as a broadcaster of a sporting event might do...maybe we should do more...but what incentive is there - especially now?...the summer is here, the cognac is good, the cigars are excellent, bachelorhood is grand, and the world is big with plenty of feminine women elsewhere...western woman made her mess, let her fix it.

Perspective 133

Our Guest Connaisseur writes:

Men do most of the initiating and are turned down most of the time. That is simply the way it is. And she turns down most initiations. That is life, both men and women are used to that dynamic. However, she initiates very little, but is far more successful percentage wise because he knows that when she initiates it is a far more serious matter than when he initiates.

I don't think the average man on the street "wants" to initiate per se, because he will lose most of the time at it. Who wants to do that? But I think he knows if he doesn't initiate, she probably won't initiate, so if it is going to be done he has to do it...ala "real man". However, when she does the initiating it is a much more serious matter from the very start, because she has already made a decision that he usually has to convince her to make (whether by his luck per a NiceGuy or his skill per a Player).

I don't think it is old fashion for the man to initiate, but still the standard.

Woman prefers to say "Yes" or "No" (like a Queen on a throne to her subject - yes, kids, whether you're a lucky NiceGuy or a skilled Player, you're still serving the Queen by your initiation) to his overtures rather than be told "No" by him. He, however, is told "No" all the time so he is used to it. One more woman telling him "No" is no big deal, a man telling her "No" is not too well received - in fact, it can be permanently devastating.

It is common among spurned women to be devastated for life after the one they wanted rejects them. Women will talk in secret to their friends about the certain man (not their husband) who they really wanted, but were rejected, as if a love story went horribly wrong. Like the King rejecting the Queen in the presence of his court...it is a real beheading for a woman (figuratively at least).

It's The End Of YOUR World As YOU Know It

It seems natural for women to project their miserable lives on you or a greater audience, if their lives suck then everybody's must suck and the world is coming to an end or about to implode into peanut butter and jelly or something. Woman - "Emotionalism" be thy name.

Now, men, in general, are optimistic, they got logic and a systematic mindset on their side.

We can trend a lot of things and make conclusions from them, using leading indicators as a guide when to divest, move on, and don't make the same mistake again. That's good, it means we're not asleep at the wheel of life, and will make the appropriate corrections. "Make corrections" being the modus operandi, not launch into an end of the world scenario.

Put a bunch of women together, and you won't get solutions - only complaining and whining. Men should consider if they act like this or not...for it is everywhere in our American society...and you might get some of this whining and complaining on you if you are not careful.

I've noticed that we don't solve problems anymore in America, and no doubt the larger West as we know it. Instead, we like to organize and study the problem in different ways (advanced whining and complaining), but never provide a solution to it. Managing problems is not solving them, just buying time for a greater disaster to come in the future.

So it might be the end of YOUR world as YOU know it, but it is the beginning of MY world as I know it...'cause I'm going to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich from your imploding world and call it lunch.
