If you want a woman who doesn't need any kind of emotional stimulation to find you interesting, visit a cemetary.

Men who need 100% clarity from a woman will lose that woman's interest, because he can't talk on her wavelength. Men can communicate with other men very logically and directly, but with women you have to use plausible deniability and playfulness or she simply won't understand what you're saying.

The biggest problem I see with men BY FAR is the lack of mental strength to be OK with pissing his wife off. All problems come down stream of this.

This skewed this way because all women have to go off of on dating apps is our looks and ALL women have is their looks to get our attention. In person, they can smell our cologne, register our confident body language, see us preselected by other women etc. Men are valued more just their looks in the real world. Referencing this graph is a waste of time and proof that whoever espouses is not in the arena. In other words, an excuse not to try.
Women's attraction to men isn't a normal distribution so I take every comment of theirs saying they see an ugly guy with a hot woman all the time with a grain of salt

Replying to @taylorburrowes
The beautiful middle ground is where you accept women for who they are but NEVER romanticize their peculiarities. Nor is your response always "love." Sometimes it's rejection. Or humor. Or ignoring her. These of course are the nuances to universal acceptance and "love" that women will never tell you about.

Meanwhile, in the real world, there are more Relationship Ready Husband Material men scaring women off for leading with that and wearing it as a badge of honor, than there are "over-zealous sex crazy fuckboys" turning women off with that energy. Yours is the energy that is common

What a lot of these bitter about women fellas are really wanting is a boyfriend. They want women to just behave, be logical, and stay consistent for the rest of their lives together. Women are the equal opposite of a man, and this is a good thing.

Never feel entitled to women. I know this is a contentious thing to say in this day and age, but women feel this immediately whenever they deal with you. This may blow your mind, but the reason some women sleep with unattractive men, men you would never guess they would sleep with, is because those men offer them freedom. Being with a guy who has heavy expectations is one of the most terrifying things a woman can experience. She thinks, “What if I fail and he leaves me?”, “What if some other girl takes him because I am not enough?”, and “What if I get fat and he is no longer attracted to me?” and so on and so forth.

All the woman haters, and bitter pill kind of guys are simply no fun to be around for women or men. Women should be the ones having the most emotional outbursts about the relationship, not men. She should be the one saying "I love that man but he's an asshole sometimes". He shouldn't be sitting around quietly seething at her for not giving enough BJs, he should be out there doing things with his life while she sits around hoping to be able to give him more BJs.

I used to think girls who sleep with guys on the first date are the problem. But nowadays I know for a fact that guys who can't sleep with girls on the first date are the real problem. They're the real problem because they're the source of all slut-shaming. You'll never criticize something you benefit from. Nothing "slutty" about a girl expressing genuine desire for a man, or 2 souls coming together and ravishing each other's bodies because they're so into one another. It's possibly the most natural and beautiful thing on this earth -- it's a feeling to die for. The only people who have a problem with this are those who are shut out of this club and prevented from participating. So they just want to burn the world down and ruin it for everyone else, even themselves. – at Barcelona, Spain

And he used her as an emotional sounding board for all his dating woes. First, that's deeply unattractive to every woman on the planet and is no way to build real connection. And doing that is far more meaningful than kissing someone once on a first date.

There is no chad. Chad is an internet abstraction. There are men who act and men who don't.
I would add that most men just won’t speak to women. Was at a salsa get together with a girl and these fit dudes just stood there in a circle why a nerdy looking dude danced with a dozen women. Gotta give the Glasses wearing Chad a ✊🏿

The more women you sleep with, the higher your standards rise. This does make it harder to fall in love. But not impossible. Abundance just makes you more selective. If you had 100 friends, you wouldn't just become friends with just anybody. Because you're not desperate.

"Then proceeds to tame him" A man who can be tamed is not a beast. Or, a leader who can be made into a follower is not a, natural, leader. So whatever she saw in him originally is proven to be false. Or. She will try to secure the man. And will try to be sure that the man is, it. Her only tools are manipulation, drama, and control. She will at times try to control you while trying to measure her own security, but presented as a win/lose. "If you want to have me, you have to lose who you are". Here's how you pass both tests in one: I do whatever the fuck I want. If I choose to be with you, is because I choose to. If I choose to be with someone else, there's nothing you can do to stop me. I do what I want. I bend to no one.
Then proceeds to try to tame him 😏 She's always in search of control, because she operates in prey mentality...

One time I was in a department store with my mom. It was the early 1990s. All the kids at school had Jordans. I wanted Jordans, of course, but my mom wasn’t going to lay out $100 when other sneakers cost $40. Then I spotted a pair of Jordans on the shelf for $40. I got excited. I figured I’d finally get my pair. Then I saw something that stopped me cold: they were noticeably damaged. I put the pieces together quickly. This was why they were $40. I got them anyway. As it turns out, at 11 years old I had less discerning taste than the girl on Love Is Blind. That man is the damaged pair of Jordans. He comes very close to being the idealized man, but at every turn something is slightly off. He talks like Connecticut royalty while somehow seeming like a dork. He tries to seem suave and pulls it off just enough to make you wonder. Then he says something incelish. He claims he’s never been in love, and you wonder: is that because you’re some emotionally cold playboy with a new woman every few weeks, or because you’re just a fucking loser? Then you look at him more closely, and the damaged Jordans become impossible to ignore. In a certain light, he has great hair, a large frame, and an admirable jawline. But somehow it all comes together as the weird, bizarro, dollar-store version of a handsome man. An uncanny valley where every feature is almost right, making the whole thing feel even more wrong. A pair of damaged sneakers that no one wanted. But me, of course. I got my pair of Jordans. I was happy.
Scott Stewart is the Director of Engineering at SharkNinja, where he has multiple patents attributed to him. Jacqueline “Jax” Guelli is a 31 year old aesthetician who admits she was a "sugar baby" in her 20s. It's also been reported she was a mid-tier escort in Boston as well. They are look-matched and yet she was physically repulsed by Stew to the point she ran off the show and ghosted him. And now Stew is entertaining giving her another chance. Modern dating is cooked.

The reason the Manosphere is so important is because it's the "banned book" of the 21st century. Nobody taught us that we have to be careful of female nature, hypergamy, dual mating strategy, provider hunters, manipulation, gaslighting, marriage, cohabitation, dead bedrooms, divorce, family court, cops, child alienation, false accusations, etc. etc. Conversely, society, religion, culture, media, schools, parents, and women THEMSELVES only teach us that women are these delicate, innocent creatures capable of doing no wrong. We're indoctrinated from a young age that it's our sacred duty to protect women, sacrifice ourselves for women, and foot the bill for life for women. Because that's what a real man does. They keep lying to us about the truth about women and constantly gaslight us that we're paranoid or overthinking it whenever we raise legitimate concerns and issues. We've seen the bodies piling up, we've heard the horror stories, and now thank God it's no longer as easy as it was in the past to pull the wool over our eyes. We men really are alone in this world -- everyone is against us, everyone is out to USE us. We only have ourselves to trust. This is exactly why the Manosphere is so damn important. It's the only space that cares for men and puts men first. THIS STUFF CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE. IT CERTAINLY SAVED MINE. I would have most likely ended up as an unappreciated, unseen, unloved husband-material workhorse playing house to some useless parasite with Baby Rabies that she expects me to fund for the next 20 years if I didn't develop mental clarity and break out of the mold early in my adult life. Remember, this isn't stuff that's shoved down your throat by everyone from all directions. This is stuff you have to proactively seek out for yourself, and, for too many of you, you found this stuff too late. Only we men care for men. Everyone else just wants us men to eat shit and work for the benefit of others until the day we die.

It’s inconceivable to a woman that other people aren’t the same as her. Because in her universe, they’re not really people. They’re an extension of her life. “If men are so sad about not having casual sex, why don’t they just go have sex? That’s what I do.” - @Archwinger1
Why don't incels just ...change? They see a certain type of man is desirable, why don't they just become that?

Women don't want a "quiet peaceful life." Or better put, they want it when their biology tells them to settle down. But then once they get it, YMMV. The divorce rate is what it is b/c of the lie you're propagating, to Nice Guys and to yourselves.

If you are not deeply captivated and in love with your woman to the point you would never even dream of cheating on her, then your practical motivation not to cheat should be that every woman you sexually involve yourself with will feel entitled to you as if she has some sort of spiritual claim on you, and will spitefully go out of her way to create hassle for you if she ever feels wronged by you. And she will feel wronged if she decides she wants a relationship with you even after explicitly agreeing to less than that with you - a woman who has been sexually involved with you generally feels entitled to a relationship with you, even if a relationship was never your intention and you made that explicitly known to her from the start. Some women use sex as a foot in the door strategy to get the relationship they really want with a man, whilst men will often be willing to have sex with women they would never wish to be stuck in a relationship with. You are at cross purposes. Man is not naturally a monogamous animal, so he would do well to remember this: when you cheat, you are giving a woman you don't even respect enough to commit to the capacity to blackmail you. This should be your greatest disincentive not to cheat. If guilt and morality alone are not enough to chain your worst predilections, preventing women you do not care for from causing you problems should be.
