@JustBotBecky It's truly a lack of communication and emotional regulation. He should be able to read her mood to a degree, and she should be capable of enough emotional regulation to voice her thoughts and feelings. The trap is constantly expecting a human to read minds, and thats not possible
@FieldMasterMatt@Pat_Stedman They cant do that. The only restraint on the sexual marketplace was pregnancy, and thats been undone.
That threat has been neutralized, and the duplicitous nature of post revolutionary female sexual nature has been brought into the sunlight and it doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
@asthasr@cynlioness I am even more surprised that it was your experience in 2001.
This was pushed hard after the Duke Lacrosse case blew up, so to see it was even the case before that is incredible.
100% agree on your take regarding the sexual revolution
@asthasr@cynlioness I remember basically being forced to sit through "The Vagina Monologs" and "Can I Kiss You".
This was mid 2000s, so the messaging was already there then. I cant imagine post metoo
@retardgains@ABorlandFan88 The grand irony is that their own fragile egos couldn't handle being rejected, and they know this, so they don't approach.
They also love the power imbalance of being pursued. It lets them put themselves on a pedestal.
Not a day goes by that I am not reminded of a famous study where men and women were forced to play a card game against an opponent.
Their opponent then either cheated and stole money from the subjects; or cooperated and played fairly.
Afterwards, the men and women were strapped into an FMRI, and watched as their prior opponent received a painful electric shock.
For men, the brain produced an empathic response when the honest opponent was shocked. But it produced no empathy, and in fact showed signs of a pleasure when the cheater was shocked. Their empathy was conditional on how the opponent behaved.
But for women… The brain produced an empathic response for both types of opponents. It didn’t matter if they had been cheated by them prior, they wanted to alleviate everyone’s suffering regardless.
This is their greatest asset, it is the feminine divine. It is the reason why a mother’s love is unconditional.
It’s also the reason why you will be stabbed to death in a Walmart parking lot by a borderline retarded Haitian with 73 prior convictions.
@PeterM59755@lisavsworld@honeyNonABG It is amazing how quickly the attempted homophobic swipe is. The second a critique is leveled "just be gay". Like wtf.
@PeterM59755@honeyNonABG@lisavsworld They want the man to *want* to plan dates, woo them, jump through the hoops to prove their worth to themselves...they think (probably rightly) that high value guys have options, and if they dont put out theyre out of the game. Same women will make their future husband work for it
@JMDucksworth Definitely ego. Though it doesn't help when the female hivemind says "we love dadbods" and then posts dudes who clearly work out regularly and are probably on a bulk and could become super ripped if they tried.
@Balder998@FreedomRinger_@financedystop These guys ngmi. It literally takes a handful of 15 minute youtube cooking videos to show anyone with an IQ above room temperature to make delicious meals.
@LazerAb@Cr7Godbrand This is it. She likely had her best foot forward not only to be seen in a good light by her ex, but also because of potential mates.
