I mean

It all came down to the mindset of the time

well, the married man 'competes' in tasks that push the future forward

"Man does this, woman does that"

the bachelor competes for the next piece of tail

But aside from that the variations were pretty dynamic

exactly, andrew

seperate spheres of influence and responsibility

You would have female factory workers (a ton of them actually) female scientists, etc

and two different sets of rules, one unique to the abilities of that gender

Women were traditionally entrusted to perform the intangible things like watch out for men who pushed themselves for too hard for too long and scorn women who were reckless with their influence or uses if for selfish purposes

Women's intuition?

It's dead.

Some degree of deviation is required, for men, we often defer to our wives, for women, they often defer to their male collogues.

it's not a matter of 'defering' though

cooperation

it's a matter of specialization

she deals with the morality

Men of great talent get inspired by

he deals with finding a way to do even the impossible

Women of great talent get guidance

i've described before, there are two perspectives in which one can view any activity or situation

Goal Oriented vs Purpose Oriented

one examines what they have and then decides what they want to do/should do based on what they CAN do

the other does the exact opposite

they examine what they WANT to do, THEN examine what they have before finally considering how to get there

men and women working together allows her to specialize in the mode of operations she is better and and likewise with him

women have a higher EQ by their nature

BTW, the goal vs purpose orientation is why people like Sargon and Richard Spencer talk PAST each other

Ever work on a project full of men, working well- hierarchy is established, minor issues, then the woman comes in and suddenly the men's behaviors shift drastically?

all the time

testoterone posioning

It's the most betraying thing.

suddenly they open up and share everything, do things you wished they would have done for you.

incredible

well, men need security first before they can go from competing to challenging in a helpful way

being married is the ultimate security

yeah, that's a HUGE no-no

it's true, I was never flirted more with than when I was married, that says a shitload about the female mindset.

there is no greater betray a woman can commit that violating the integrity of a man's space

ever notice when a guy STOPS flirting in those situations?
