[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s been a lot of research showing men are far more susceptible to peer influence and are overall highly concerned with how other man think of them. They behave in ways that align them with the alpha male, rather than with females. So you now have a bunch of men who all basically suck, so they all default to the worst possible person, and when you throw in the podcasters (who are the alphas now), they align themselves with those men. Even if it results in worse lives for themselves. The only real way for men to improve is to hold each other accountable. Or possibly, if he’s been through the pain of breakups/divorce, that might be enough to spur a change. But usually it just results in them swearing off women. [/quote] This, but also? Who's raising these "men"? Who's enabling them? Who's marrying them, coddling them, sleeping with them...? They don't improve their behavior because they can still get what they want while behaving this way. Too many women are desperate to be in a relationship and will settle for some mother's mediocre son. If women raised their standards, men would have to rise to the challenge. But there's too many opportunities to be a piece of trash man and still have a wife, a family, etc. And they're getting aware of this, which is why they want to make divorces harder to get, demand more kids (because a woman would leave for herself, but they stay "for the kids"). Women need to realize the whole system is a scam and opt out and then men will need to figure out a way to reconnect. Many of them won't; the bottom-feeders will still listen to their toxic masculinity bros and hide in their goonercaves. But we didn't want them anyway, so no real loss there. The ones who can evolve will, once the stakes are high enough.[/quote]
