@lotodantes Anima and shadow — good Jungian theory on waifu selection.

Yup

I've never heard the term toxic masculinity before mgtow but all the time I felt like just being a male in general makes you pretty subtly hated

I can see the part where it can, in theory, give you unreasonable expectations

yup

Read my whole section

@Kaiser Dion Napoleon Would be nicer if it was “subtly”.

that's only if you believe its real

It's not a huge thing, it's small and builds up over time

if you know and understand its fiction then it shouldn't really matter

right?

Yeah

You don't need to, your brain doesn't differentiate, it sees people

"Men who try hard to be masculine suffer from toxic masculinity."

You have to just know it's fiction

@Five, Seven, and Two thanks mate. I’m still working on figuring out what I believe, but I think I’m coming close, and the psychology of waifus and male desire are the key to unlocking it

Then I should be thoroughly brainwashed cause all I do is consume fiction

The reason I say subtly is because females never come outright and hate men unless their radical feminists

Anime is mostly an exception cause it's not real. But your brain sees one guy beating on 12, unless you have had experience to the contrary it saves that

Women tend to be more vulnerable to it than men

Well women are children

they are can't understand normal thinkers

They can't distinguish reality from fiction

As a general rule: if you’re worried you’re blurring the lines between fantasy and reality, just ask a woman about it. If she agrees with you, you’ve crossed the line and can’t distinguish the two.

Ah, damn, Andrew beat me to it.

And the reason I bring it up is because of how insidious it is. You don't need to agree or even think it's real

No one learned them to think good

I’m trying to find my Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition of Swann’s Way in order to make my point. I can’t find my copy of it, but when I do, I’ll follow up on my points of male projection

Your brain is wired to accept what it sees

@Five, Seven, and Two your explanation is better

You know a lot of the stuff that can be said about women I've noticed can also be said about most men though, let's not even pretend all men are equal

I know I sure dont

Cucked soy Bois exist

OoF

@lotodantes I think that, historically, women have *modeled* that behavior because it got them a stable provider, then subsequently resources and safe harbor. We’re seeing the disconnect because women have no incentive to pursue ideal forms, much less teach them to their daughters.

I think you’re onto something. Damn dude

The government is Daddy now

U guys see the video of the Arab dude that knocked out two white thots over a hot dog? No one did anything to stop him lol
