PATREON EXCLUSIVE (Full Video): Women have forgotten what makes them valuable

PATREON EXCLUSIVE (Full Video): Women have forgotten what makes them valuable

Comments

Fantastic video! People almost never regret having children, only failing to have them, or as many as they wanted.

@Bill let's break a myth: women being exclusively dedicated to the maintenance of a home is not the traditional organization of a household. For most part of history, and for most of the population (ie leaving out nobility/bourgeoisie) women have been working: on fields, in fabrics, in mines. But that was in addition/complement to taking care of the home/familly. That being said, it is weird that eg being a good cook used to be part of the basic requirements when deciding to marry a woman or not (or convincing one's parents), whereas nowadays we don't seem to consider seriously enough what is going to be the contribution of each party to the household. There are a lot of things that need being taken care of, either by the man or the woman or both, yet when choosing a partner it seems we are only looking at how much fun am I having dating that person right now, and how good-looking is he/she...

The pain of missing out is not trivial

Trash people raise trash kids. Trash men skip out and trash women don’t have that same ease of skipping out. Socio economic factors play a huge role in my oppion Low quality low class men will bail on the kids But low class low quality low income women don’t have that choice Meaning that men that fo father are inevitably better off and that would show. In the outcomes You take a well situated and educated man and same socioeconomic status woman and compare… I don’t think that you will see as dramatic as a difference.

5. While the research on single fathers is limited, studies show that children in single-father families fare about as well as children in single-mother families on many outcomes, although there are differences. Surprisingly, they found “few differences” on these sex-related outcomes between teens living with single moms or single dads. Institute for family studies https://ifstudies.org/blog/five-facts-about-todays-single-fathers Seems to be not a cut and dry as you make it sound

Thanks E C!!!

One problem is women don’t like what makes them valuable. What they like most in men is attraction, but what they value most is money, resources, and status (as it relates to accumulation of money/resources). This is not an opinion either, it’s the result of an intensive 2008 study, and I don’t think most men would disagree. The disconnect is as technology has enabled more women to be in the workforce, and make no mistake it is technology, they take what they want the most in a man & try to “sell” that as their value. This comes at the cost of their femininity, which more women used to be able to balance work/femininity. Now it’s all masculine traits they are proud of. Men aren’t buying it though. This past Thanksgiving, I knew a group of women who were getting Chinese because none of them knew how to cook a Turkey. At the same time, I cooked my first Turkey because I wanted it, and even though I didn’t know what I was doing, I pulled it off. I didn’t tell anyone, not because I wasn’t proud or ashamed, I just did it for me with the same mindset that I got certified professionally, did a 5k race, did a 20 mile bike ride, paid off two debts, maxed out my 401k contributions for the year, etc. I just did them not expecting some banners to fly or celebrate. I was called “broke” by a girl who didn’t comprehend that I didn’t have money was due saving/contributing nearly $40k to my retirement accounts in 6 months was me thinking about my future, she was mad because her $100k in debt to student loans/IRS thought I should have been able to do something for her. She’s 45, can’t have kids, and is talking about how she can get free Botox. I’m 50, in the best shape I’ve been in since my 30s, (I actually won a “worlds sexiest man competition on a cruise recently) and the sacrifices of last year will pay me off far more than what she offered: What she offered? Honestly, while still attractive, she’s declined a lot in recent years, can’t cook, and thinks her v-jay is all she needs to bring. Thats why she ate Chinese on Thanksgiving vs. spending it with me then going on a cruise with me. The V-Jay isn’t that valuable.

Thanks the video!

Good men, run into burning buildings to save children. Good men, run into burning buildings to save a child's mother.

I hadn't thought about the question before Alex said it, but would I give up my seat in a lifeboat for a child or children? Yes, of course. For a mother with child? Yes, absolutely. For a single woman? No way. Maybe there is something in the psychology of every man which allows him to make that decision without thinking because we know it is unquestionably the right thing to do.

Alexander, I want to reference the studies (and conclusions) on parenting (single mothers vs parents who remain together and single fathers). Where can I find them?

Mark Bryski

Thank you Alexander for telling it as it is, this video makes a lot of sense and honestly, it encourages me to voice out what I've been reasoning for many years but it seems socially taboo to mention. The thing that I find the funniest about the modern culture is the myth of women still being seen and treated as the fairer sex... when the pressures of feminism made men look physically better than women with fewer struggles to maintain it.

Nailed it. As a single solo parent, I encounter many childless women approaching age 40 who show interest in me. A big part of it may be because my family situation instantly resolves their family situation. By the way, I am 60 years old. Many people are probably not having children because they don’t know how to be happy. Myself, early in life, I was afraid to have children because I didn’t know how to be happy. May I suggest to anyone in this situation to look into the Hero Circle programme. I am not a participant. However, it looks like it’s main focus is about learning how to be happy. By the way, I have participated in Hey Hero and believe it is both time and money well spent. I think it is fucking awesome how Alexander advocates children are the ones who are special and the implicit message in all of his presentations is our mental health and our psychology is the key to making it work.
