@Vermillion-Rx

I think you're taking some things way too far because you're comparing them to long and dead eras of norms

Yes and no. Yes b/c he deliberately chose high standard (not a virgin=whore). No b/c:

He want's to have a disdain for all women so he can use this feeling to preemptively reject them all, not giving them a chance to prove there are good girls, ultimately from trying to replace his old oneitis (as that's his goal) b/c replacing his old oneitis (or finding even a decent "good girl", not a virgin just average decent one) would invalidate his entire "woe is me" persona. Self pity is a drug and he's addicted. Self pity also leads to resentment as a form avoidance of taking responsibility for not moving on" "see i cannot move forward ALL of them are whores".

This isn't anger phase b/c anger phase is driven by the unwillingness of accepting the inequality of how both genders operate, the "innate" unfairness of SMP as viewed from male perspective. He doesn't have this, he has "rejection of women as defence from moving on" which purpose is to keep him(self) in the perpetual self pity wallow. He's already looking for companionship ("lets make a breakup safe space") b/c miserly loves company and everyone here refuses him one.

I read your alpha/beta post.

I think your approach is geared towards making the best of the current situation (which is, obviously, what TRP is predominantly about), but that skews your evaluation of long-term consequences.

Sure, women sustaining themselves is great if you are single and looking for short-term things, which is basically the strategy that all men should pursue. (I, personally, am against men having children, it takes away much more than it gives them, the lower their socioeconomic standard, the more.)

On the other hand, men who find themselves with families and children, find their woman running around inducing chaos, because now that she has her money (not the family''s!) she can be *Strong and Independent ". She enforces her own consuming habbits on the family, i.e. she has her man financing her anyway, and then she goes on to do even more, by taking her ex's 50% of income directly.

Single mothers can be great lays initially, but when you meet her intensely anxioys and visibly depressed 5 yo son that's certain to have an aimless angst-ridden life, it takes away a lot of the experience.

Women never evolved to be "wild and free". The consumerist wild ride is fun, until its nasty consequences show up, and then it isn't.
