I think living well away from civilization helps here. Because the effete elite hate anyone with a spine.

Rare is the father who will explain such things to their sons; and even then, maybe only to his favorite son; otherwise all we have to advise us are female advice columnists; we Boomers had Ann Landers and Dear Abbie: promoters of the friend zone.

Our father dispensed his “wisdom” dubious as it sometimes was, without favouritism of any kind. As to who listened and who didn’t… well… that wasn’t on him.

Interesting, and very much in line with Schopenhauer’s ‘On Women’

The Kurgan's avatar

Schopenhauer was a bitter incel and an idiot, who hated women because they were repulsed by his form and even more so his personality. Why anyone takes anything that German cretin wrote as being in any way useful is beyond me.

Thought you were hating on him just becuz but I read about his life and holy shit even his mother..........

Why do you think he was an idiot though

The Kurgan's avatar

What do YOU call a “philosopher” that makes his bitterness at life become the central theme of his “philosophy” instead actually observing reality and considering that in an at least basic manner?

Lived my entire adult life on my terms. Forged my own destiny and never really cared what others thought. If it made sense it was getting done.

Never had problems attracting women either. Just wasnt shackled by the crippling anxiety about what others and society expects. Its liberating

Mostly, I find women to be full of shit. I don't really care what they think because of that. I think that's what you called the seething hatred of them, and I'm unable to conceal it. So what. I can take 'em or leave 'em.

Then enjoy your pointless, joyless, sexless, childless (thank God!) life, and go comment elsewhere. This is not the place for raging incels too weak to deal with reality and their own inadequacy at dealing with it.

Your father sounds like a proper alpha.

Nope. Extremely Sigma. But my entire family history is littered with Sigmas going back some 800 years. It’s partly why my own SSH theory had developed long before I met or read Vox at all. I think there is also a genetic component to Sigmas (or scouts as I referred to them), and probably to the other archetypes too.
