Latest / Honey Badger Radio / Toward individualistic reproduction: Solving the fertility crisis
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: And we're live. Hello everybody, and welcome to Honey Badger Radio.
- 0:04Speaker 1: My name is Brian. I'm here with Allison, and this
- 0:05Speaker 1: is maintaining frame we're gonna be talking about toward individualistic reproduction.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Solving the fertility crisis could require a further marginalization of men.
- 0:17Speaker 1: It's a paper from Cambridge University Press, like a what
- 0:21Speaker 1: is this like a scientific study?
- 0:24Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, what it does is it looks at the
- 0:28Speaker 2: difference between stated fertility, which is above replacement. So women
- 0:34Speaker 2: generally state that they want to have two point four
- 0:36Speaker 2: children and then they end up having one point four
- 0:40Speaker 2: and so you're looking at this gap and they're saying,
- 0:42Speaker 2: why does this gap exist? Well, obviously it's because of men.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Let's blame men. Men aren't doing something, or they are
- 0:52Speaker 2: doing something. But let's let's just do that. Let's just
- 0:54Speaker 2: do this the standard maneuver, because that's works so well
- 0:59Speaker 2: in creating the crisis in the first place. So let's
- 1:01Speaker 2: just apply more. The fire has grown large and is
- 1:05Speaker 2: threatening to consume our entire species, let us put more
- 1:09Speaker 2: gasoline upon it. Surely that will put it out that
- 1:14Speaker 2: that always worked in the past to increase the rate
- 1:17Speaker 2: of burn. But Surely this time it will work. You Yeah, exactly,
- 1:24Speaker 2: just drown the fire. Just you know, putting ghastly on
- 1:27Speaker 2: the fire made it bigger. But surely if we put more,
- 1:29Speaker 2: it eventually will drown it out and then we won't
- 1:32Speaker 2: have any more fire and everything will be salved. And
- 1:36Speaker 2: you know, because you know why they make these mistakes,
- 1:39Speaker 2: because there all of their solutions land on blame men.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Yeah, like everyone's chart with one direction on it, it
- 1:48Speaker 1: happens blame men.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly if the problem is blaming men, blame men's
- 1:55Speaker 2: some more. Yeah, everything goes to that point always. I
- 2:01Speaker 2: think anybody who's watched as long enough has seen how
- 2:05Speaker 2: many times we've pointed this out. It is across the
- 2:09Speaker 2: institutional spectrum. Everything lands on this everything, and you know,
- 2:17Speaker 2: I mean, there there's a there's maybe a reason for
- 2:20Speaker 2: it beyond the ideological because generally, when you have a problem,
- 2:25Speaker 2: it's you you do have to have men solve it
- 2:30Speaker 2: or men you generally are the ones who do solve it.
- 2:33Speaker 2: So okay, But in this case, it's like it is
- 2:46Speaker 2: it is uh yeah, it's just it's just the eternal
- 2:48Speaker 2: maneuver that never ends, and we never consider doing something else.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Aside from it, except here here, on this this venerable channel,
- 2:57Speaker 2: where we discuss the things that nobody it apparently, can
- 3:00Speaker 2: even conceive of or allow enter a single memo upon
- 3:04Speaker 2: their desk, which is, you know, maybe let's not blame men,
- 3:08Speaker 2: and in fact, let's consider blaming the group of people
- 3:11Speaker 2: that explicitly said they wanted to destroy human reproduction and
- 3:15Speaker 2: then proceeded to do so. Like, could we just like
- 3:18Speaker 2: maybe take a look at them and see if they
- 3:20Speaker 2: might be a little bit culpable in all of this,
- 3:23Speaker 2: you know, like literally, we had a gigantic ideology that
- 3:27Speaker 2: said heterosexuality is the site of women's oppression, let's kill it,
- 3:31Speaker 2: and then subsequently our birth rates declined. Maybe there's a connection.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Could we entertain the possibility? No, perish the thought. Let's
- 3:40Speaker 2: blame men some more. Okay, all right, So that's what
- 3:44Speaker 2: this paper does essentially, although it does correctly identify the
- 3:49Speaker 2: gap between what women say they want in terms of
- 3:52Speaker 2: children and what they actually end up having, which is
- 3:57Speaker 2: interesting because that means there's a whole lot of unhappy
- 4:01Speaker 2: women presumably if they're not getting what they want, and
- 4:08Speaker 2: and our society has constructed that. So do you want
- 4:12Speaker 2: me to read a summary. Oh right, yes, the things
- 4:17Speaker 2: I'm like squirreling all over the place, and I forgot
- 4:19Speaker 2: to do the things I can.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I can read the abstract and then yes.
- 4:23Speaker 2: That's an excellent That is an excellent plan. So if
- 4:28Speaker 2: you would like to send a message at any point

- 4:46Speaker 2: it doesn't really enhance your comments. It just segregates them.

- 5:07Speaker 2: there's that. And if you want to read more of
- 5:11Speaker 2: my more like organized thoughts, you can go to badger
- 5:15Speaker 2: nation dot online for now until I actually get off
- 5:20Speaker 2: my ass and create some kind of like email list.
- 5:24Speaker 2: So anyway, badgination dot online. It will take us, take us,
- 5:27Speaker 2: take you to our discord where you can find my channel,
- 5:31Speaker 2: where I put my thoughts in a more bullet point form,
- 5:37Speaker 2: you know, like organized chapters, subheadings, that kind of thing. Okay,
- 5:42Speaker 2: let's do the abstract.
- 5:44Speaker 1: Okay, so toward individualistic reproduction. Solving the fertility crisis could
- 5:49Speaker 1: require a further marginalization of men. Published by the Cambridge
- 5:54Speaker 1: University Press abstract. The cross national correlation between gender equality
- 6:00Speaker 1: and lower fertility is exceptionally strong. After the nineteen sixties,
- 6:05Speaker 1: a unique mating regime spread across parts of the world,
- 6:09Speaker 1: with female emancipation, individual mate choice, and effective birth control,
- 6:14Speaker 1: followed by a continuing rise in singlehood and declining fertility.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Almost all women still want to reproduce, but many struggle
- 6:23Speaker 1: to find a good enough partner. This article argues from
- 6:26Speaker 1: an evolutionary perspective that many men's utility to free women
- 6:32Speaker 1: has been so diminished that solving the fertility crisis by
- 6:35Speaker 1: increasing pair bonding rates seems unfeasible. A viable means for
- 6:40Speaker 1: aiding the survival of low fertility nations could be to
- 6:43Speaker 1: provide women with the economic and social resources necessary for
- 6:46Speaker 1: them to conclude that having children alone makes up for
- 6:50Speaker 1: a better life than remaining childless. Such policies would likely
- 6:55Speaker 1: exacerbate male marginalization, but new technologies are on the horizon
- 7:00Speaker 1: that could offer men reproductive equality. So that's the summary.
- 7:06Speaker 1: Do you guys need this rephrased so you guys know
- 7:09Speaker 1: what it says in layman's terms. Well, essentially, they're they're
- 7:14Speaker 1: saying that, so we did all this stuff for equality.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Right now, you know, we have birth control, we have
- 7:20Speaker 1: liberated women. We've given them the option of choosing their
- 7:24Speaker 1: mate because you know, apparently historically they were just chained
- 7:27Speaker 1: to a man. And well that's what the claim is. Though,
- 7:30Speaker 1: I'm just ready and so like women have like we've
- 7:35Speaker 1: finally done it. We've done it. We've liberated women. Okay,
- 7:38Speaker 1: and now we're as we get more and more equality,
- 7:43Speaker 1: people are having fewer kids. What's the problem. Well, apparently,
- 7:48Speaker 1: despite the fact that almost all women want to reproduce,
- 7:51Speaker 1: they can't find a partner that's good enough. So the
- 7:55Speaker 1: men are the problem because they're not making enough money
- 7:59Speaker 1: or they're not good enough for these liberated women. Now,
- 8:03Speaker 1: and what the argument, the argument the article is going
- 8:06Speaker 1: to make is that because the the the men, women
- 8:13Speaker 1: are so free. Now that solving the problem by essentially
- 8:19Speaker 1: like you know, increasing pair bonding, so like basically getting
- 8:22Speaker 1: men and women to co like work together to build families.
- 8:25Speaker 1: That's un that's undoable. We can't do it because the
- 8:28Speaker 1: women don't want them. So instead, what we're gonna do
- 8:31Speaker 1: is we're just going to give money more money to
- 8:34Speaker 1: women because essentially they say, well, they if we if
- 8:37Speaker 1: we give them enough economic and social resources, then they
- 8:40Speaker 1: can just raise kids without men. So that this and
- 8:44Speaker 1: that's basically what it is. And so this could you know,
- 8:48Speaker 1: they they say, oh, you know, this could mess with
- 8:50Speaker 1: men because now they're not not only do they not
- 8:52Speaker 1: have a woman in their life, but they don't even
- 8:55Speaker 1: have their own families. So they're or money, right, but uh,
- 8:59Speaker 1: you know, they'll be technologies, Something will happen. Someone will
- 9:03Speaker 1: rise and give them technology that will finally offer them
- 9:07Speaker 1: reproductive equality. Whatever that is.
- 9:11Speaker 2: The sex bought revolution, Yeah, sex bought plus artificial womb revolution,
- 9:16Speaker 2: which won't itself be impeded by political interests that always
- 9:23Speaker 2: impede anything that benefit men. Yeah, but yeah, that's yeah,
- 9:27Speaker 2: that's it. Yeah, the problem is that women don't like men.
- 9:30Speaker 2: So let's marginalize men further down the chain by taking
- 9:35Speaker 2: their money away and giving it to women, and that'll
- 9:38Speaker 2: solve everything. Okay, it won't. Like literally this is this
- 9:43Speaker 2: is absolute nonsensical thinking. And generally, when a group of
- 9:50Speaker 2: people start saying, what we need to solve this problem
- 9:53Speaker 2: is to take money from group A, is to the
- 9:56Speaker 2: government to take money from group A to give it
- 9:58Speaker 2: to group B, generally they have no interest in solving
- 10:01Speaker 2: the actual problem. But even if they did and their
- 10:06Speaker 2: solution was genuine, it would make it worse. And the
- 10:10Speaker 2: reason why it would make it worse is that, this
- 10:14Speaker 2: is my hypothesis, the pair bond comes before the children.
- 10:20Speaker 2: So with literally a pair bond or bond with a
- 10:24Speaker 2: male partner is the precondition for women to turn that
- 10:30Speaker 2: vague desire, that vague affiliated desire for two point four
- 10:36Speaker 2: hallmark babies into an actual two plus children. Right, So
- 10:42Speaker 2: you have to get women paar bonded first. And one
- 10:45Speaker 2: of the reasons why I say that is because the
- 10:47Speaker 2: fertility crisis isn't a crisis of married women's fertility. Once
- 10:55Speaker 2: women are married, they have approximately the same number of
- 10:59Speaker 2: children as they ever had since since basically birth control equalized,
- 11:07Speaker 2: so in the nineties. In the early nineties, married women
- 11:11Speaker 2: topped out but two point one two point five children,
- 11:15Speaker 2: and they have not declined since. So married women continue
- 11:20Speaker 2: to have the same amount of children that they have
- 11:24Speaker 2: had for thirty thirty years, thirty plus years, and then
- 11:28Speaker 2: amount of children that they have is at replacement. So
- 11:32Speaker 2: in other words, if we had marriage rates of the seventies,
- 11:37Speaker 2: the sixties and seventies, we'd be fine. So if we
- 11:41Speaker 2: had if women were in long term relationships with men,
- 11:44Speaker 2: we would be fine in terms of a birth rate.
- 11:49Speaker 2: What's increasing were what's cratering the birth rate is the
- 11:53Speaker 2: increase of single women period. And single women used to
- 11:59Speaker 2: have us you know, they did. They didn't have as
- 12:01Speaker 2: many children as married women ever, but they used to
- 12:05Speaker 2: have some, and now they're having less and less and
- 12:09Speaker 2: less and less. So you can divert funds to make
- 12:15Speaker 2: women single forever and allow them to exist in that,
- 12:19Speaker 2: but you are not going to get babies out of that.
- 12:21Speaker 2: What you are is going to get an increasingly created
- 12:23Speaker 2: birth rate. So what they're suggesting won't just not reverse
- 12:28Speaker 2: the birth rate, it will increase the decline. The more
- 12:32Speaker 2: you pay women to essentially stay away from men, the
- 12:38Speaker 2: more you creator the birth rate and the whole discussion
- 12:44Speaker 2: around this that women are finally able to be free
- 12:48Speaker 2: of men, as if men were some burden that women
- 12:51Speaker 2: have had throughout all of human history, which incidentally is
- 12:55Speaker 2: absolute nonsense. Okay, like there's there's there's no reason the
- 13:01Speaker 2: coevolved half of the other half of your of your
- 13:05Speaker 2: species is a burden. That's ridiculous. But regardless that, the
- 13:09Speaker 2: whole narrative is that women are no longer burdened with men.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Therefore men have to be some other thing in order
- 13:17Speaker 2: to attract women, and apparently that other thing is have
- 13:20Speaker 2: a sociopathic personality style. But that's another story, right, that's all.
- 13:24Speaker 2: That's all balderdash. Stop allowing men women to substitute men
- 13:29Speaker 2: in their lives, to substitute a second co parent and
- 13:33Speaker 2: a second co parent's resources, and encourage women to form
- 13:37Speaker 2: bonds with men again. And one way you could do this,
- 13:40Speaker 2: which is what nobody wants to even acknowledge, much less suggest,
- 13:47Speaker 2: is maybe you stop promoting an ideology that turns heterosexuality
- 13:54Speaker 2: into a status contest with women always losing. Okay, so
- 14:00Speaker 2: that heterosexuality is the source of women's oppression, You take
- 14:03Speaker 2: something that is in every religious tradition is a sacrament,
- 14:10Speaker 2: and every philosophical tradition is the foundation of society, and
- 14:14Speaker 2: based on evolution is why we exist in the first place.
- 14:18Speaker 2: You take the sight of that and you turn it
- 14:20Speaker 2: into the most debased status contest battle fight that it
- 14:28Speaker 2: was never intended to be, and then you essentially ward
- 14:33Speaker 2: women away from it, because what ends up happening is
- 14:37Speaker 2: when you tell this to women, when you tell men
- 14:39Speaker 2: our women that you know, getting in a relationship with
- 14:42Speaker 2: a man is losing yourself, is You're constantly going to
- 14:45Speaker 2: be subordinate. You're going to be we rased as a person.
- 14:49Speaker 2: Everything is about status jocking and making sure you get
- 14:53Speaker 2: your bag. And we got to make sure, we gotta
- 14:55Speaker 2: we got to audit every minute everybody spends on the
- 14:58Speaker 2: relationship to make sure it's equal right, bringing that whole
- 15:04Speaker 2: are like that whole baggage of equality versus inequality into
- 15:10Speaker 2: that space, that relationship that's foundational with everything we enjoy
- 15:15Speaker 2: as human beings. Destroys it, flat out destroys it. And
- 15:20Speaker 2: the funny thing is is that women's desires for a
- 15:25Speaker 2: partner that makes more than them hasn't changed. Women still
- 15:30Speaker 2: want it. What it actually does is it introduces toxic
- 15:34Speaker 2: levels of hypergamming. So women still want a partner that
- 15:39Speaker 2: earns more, that has more status, but now they want
- 15:45Speaker 2: even more right, so they can't. It's there's a co
- 15:50Speaker 2: parent is no longer good enough. They need Christian Gray.
- 15:53Speaker 2: So ironically, by introducing this status contest into the relationship,
- 15:59Speaker 2: you turn women from women who want to co create
- 16:02Speaker 2: a family and a legacy with men into women who
- 16:06Speaker 2: insist that the only man who is deserving of their submission,
- 16:11Speaker 2: which this never was, or their subordination, which this never
- 16:16Speaker 2: was about, is Christian Gray, a freaking billionaire, right the
- 16:21Speaker 2: six sixty six men. So all of this comes from
- 16:26Speaker 2: commodifying and turning the relationship between men and women into
- 16:31Speaker 2: a status competition, and talking about it in terms of equality.
- 16:36Speaker 2: Just even bringing in the whole notion that we can
- 16:40Speaker 2: judge this relationship in terms of equality is observed, it
- 16:44Speaker 2: destroys it. It's like talking about judging your kidneys versus
- 16:49Speaker 2: your liver in terms of equality. We need to make them,
- 16:52Speaker 2: we need to make their functions equal. We need we
- 16:55Speaker 2: needed to remove the status jockey in between the kidneys
- 16:58Speaker 2: and the liver. You know, what the ends up with
- 17:01Speaker 2: that ends up with death? All Right, it's absurd, And
- 17:05Speaker 2: if you maybe we could start, you know, and reversing
- 17:08Speaker 2: this by simply getting rid of this ideology, you know,
- 17:14Speaker 2: simply getting rid of the notion that heterosexuality is a
- 17:18Speaker 2: status a competition between men and women, and that even anybody,
- 17:24Speaker 2: any Susan Brown Miller or Andrea Dwarkin or whatever good
- 17:30Speaker 2: feminist do you want to point to, because everybody's like, oh, well,
- 17:33Speaker 2: the second wave, second wave, they were the good feminists. No,
- 17:36Speaker 2: they weren't any one of those women you want to
- 17:38Speaker 2: point to. Who just who just steps into something that
- 17:42Speaker 2: used to be sacred or at least respected as foundational
- 17:47Speaker 2: and starts throwing around bullshit about how it's really about
- 17:50Speaker 2: pression of women. Yeah, just kick him out, kick them
- 17:53Speaker 2: out of pedagogy, kick them out of academia, kick them
- 17:57Speaker 2: out of teaching children, kick them out of the government
- 18:00Speaker 2: amount of everywhere, and then see if the birth rate
- 18:03Speaker 2: starts to improve. But no, we can't do that. We
- 18:08Speaker 2: can't do that. Nobody can even talk about it. Let's
- 18:12Speaker 2: talk about replacing people, like when the birth rate craters
- 18:16Speaker 2: in twenty years, let's talk about immigration. Hey, let's just
- 18:21Speaker 2: bring in people from cultures. But the problem with that is,
- 18:25Speaker 2: of course, once they come here, they inherit our sterility,
- 18:29Speaker 2: so we're eventually like, by importing people from other cultures,
- 18:33Speaker 2: the West is ensuring the strility of the human race.
- 18:36Speaker 2: But let's not talk about that, right, Nah, let's do that.
- 18:39Speaker 2: Or how a wull option be Let's replace everybody with
- 18:43Speaker 2: AI and robots. Hey, that makes more sense, right, Or
- 18:48Speaker 2: I'll option see, let's grow people in vats and institutionalize
- 18:53Speaker 2: human reproduction. Let's completely divorce it from individual choice and
- 18:57Speaker 2: just make everybody in a tube. Right, Yeah, that's option cee.
- 19:01Speaker 2: What about option D. Nobody wants to talk about option D,
- 19:04Speaker 2: which is keeping Africa poor, so they continue to give birth.
- 19:08Speaker 2: But Bill Gates is certainly pursuing that option really hard. Yeah,
- 19:12Speaker 2: he's definitely keeping Africa poor. All right, So those are
- 19:16Speaker 2: four options that our big brain billionaires have arrived upon
- 19:22Speaker 2: for us, Like, they all know that this is a problem,
- 19:24Speaker 2: they're all seeking out a solution to it, and those
- 19:27Speaker 2: are our options, but none of them include Maybe Andrew
- 19:32Speaker 2: Dwarkin was wrong. Maybe the greasy, self hating whale had
- 19:39Speaker 2: nothing good to say about human bonding. Maybe maybe the
- 19:45Speaker 2: fem cells we shouldn't listen to them. Maybe maybe nobody
- 19:50Speaker 2: wants to do that. All of these billionaires, these powerful men,
- 19:54Speaker 2: they cannot stand up to these women and their legacy.
- 19:59Speaker 2: They can call it out for all their power, they
- 20:03Speaker 2: can't actually call out the real problem. They can't even
- 20:07Speaker 2: mention it. Like even Melon Musk can't even talk about this. Honestly,
- 20:13Speaker 2: none of them can. None of them can actually talk
- 20:17Speaker 2: about the actual problem and where it originates. But they
- 20:21Speaker 2: all can say that this is a problem. They can
- 20:23Speaker 2: all see the problem. They just can't identify the solution,
- 20:28Speaker 2: or they can't at least identify what the problem is
- 20:31Speaker 2: downstream of Yeah, but it takes a small YouTube channel
- 20:37Speaker 2: such as ourselves to do this thing, this remarkable and
- 20:40Speaker 2: difficult thing. All right, let's continue.
- 20:45Speaker 1: Well, I already read the appstract. You are going to
- 20:47Speaker 1: read like a summary or something?
- 20:49Speaker 2: Oh okay, sure, well I can read an analysis, but
- 20:51Speaker 2: maybe we should leave that for the end. Let's keep going.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Let's keep reading.
- 20:55Speaker 1: Do you want me to just read more of because
- 20:57Speaker 1: now I'm in the introduction? Do you want me to
- 20:59Speaker 1: read that?
- 21:00Speaker 2: Or sure? All right, okay, take a while.
- 21:04Speaker 1: I did get a super chow. I'm want to read
- 21:06Speaker 1: really quick from Hula Troopa. This was yesterday at nine
- 21:10Speaker 1: forty three ten dollars, says just paying Allison's woman consultation fees. Okay,
- 21:17Speaker 1: all right, let's continue yep introduction. The relationship between the
- 21:24Speaker 1: fertility crisis and our era's marginalization of some groups of
- 21:28Speaker 1: men is poorly understood. Over the past decades, researchers have
- 21:32Speaker 1: documented how many men are falling behind in terms of education,
- 21:36Speaker 1: professional performance, mental health, and other social and economic indicators,
- 21:41Speaker 1: but mostly without investigating the psychological causes of the marginalization.
- 21:47Speaker 1: In Norway, one of the world's most gender progressive nations,
- 21:51Speaker 1: politicians have tried to understand this concerning development through three
- 21:55Speaker 1: government appointed committees, but these failed to identify the underlying
- 22:00Speaker 1: drivers or which policies could effectively counter the trend. Oh,
- 22:04Speaker 1: you're saying the government couldn't solve a problem. That is
- 22:07Speaker 1: not something that government could solve. They they couldn't just
- 22:10Speaker 1: create the policy that makes things better, the make it
- 22:14Speaker 1: work policy. They couldn't pass that. Okay. In the same
- 22:19Speaker 1: period as men in many nations became more marginalized, fertility
- 22:24Speaker 1: rates plummeted. The Nordic nations were anomalies, often attributed to
- 22:29Speaker 1: their gender equality and generous family policies, but they too
- 22:33Speaker 1: are now headed towards demographic collapse. In the twenty tens,
- 22:37Speaker 1: Norway's rate fell from two point zero to one point
- 22:40Speaker 1: five and continued falling. Nations like Norway and England with
- 22:44Speaker 1: a rate of one point four will see their cohort
- 22:46Speaker 1: size reduced by a third for each generation barring effects
- 22:51Speaker 1: of immigration. And they have like a figure, but I
- 22:54Speaker 1: can't for some reason, I can't see it. I don't
- 22:56Speaker 1: know what's going on with that. I don't know what.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Again. Again, regardless of what you think of immigration in
- 23:05Speaker 2: terms of your politics, immigration just ensures that the entire
- 23:09Speaker 2: world is sterilized, right, because what you're doing is you're
- 23:13Speaker 2: importing people from places where that still have replacement level reproduction,
- 23:18Speaker 2: which now isn't even East Asia, like India has fallen
- 23:22Speaker 2: below replacement. China's well below right, most of East Asia. Right,
- 23:28Speaker 2: So now we're just looking at the Sub Saharan Africa
- 23:31Speaker 2: and they are following. They are their trajectory is downward too.
- 23:36Speaker 2: So you import people from places that are still reproducing,
- 23:40Speaker 2: and within three generations their reproduction is at or below
- 23:46Speaker 2: the host country's reproduction. So what you're doing by importing
- 23:51Speaker 2: people is sterilizing the entire human race. Right, not a
- 23:57Speaker 2: good long term strategy. Regardless, it doesn't solve the problem.
- 24:01Speaker 2: So why do it? Why not solve the problem. And
- 24:06Speaker 2: the funny thing is they did. They lay out exactly
- 24:08Speaker 2: what's happened, and they do it in terms that are
- 24:12Speaker 2: extremely ambiguous. No, they do it in terms that are
- 24:18Speaker 2: extremely camouflaged. They say, the marginalization of men. Well, how
- 24:23Speaker 2: did the marginalization of men occur? Well, I'll tell you
- 24:26Speaker 2: how it occurred. It occurred by a bunch of ideologues
- 24:31Speaker 2: saying that heterosexuality is the site of women's oppression, which
- 24:36Speaker 2: turns what men offer women into something that is unwanted, Like,
- 24:46Speaker 2: why would you want a relationship with an oppressor and
- 24:49Speaker 2: the relationship you have with them is the site of
- 24:51Speaker 2: your own oppression? Right, That's what marginalizes men. That's what
- 24:55Speaker 2: under sells men as partners and also workers and also
- 25:02Speaker 2: students and employees and leaders and everything, of course, but
- 25:08Speaker 2: in particular it under sells them as partners of women.
- 25:12Speaker 2: So now, in order to have a woman, a man
- 25:15Speaker 2: can't be just like, well, I offer a relationship with
- 25:18Speaker 2: myself because that is now degraded, that is, that is
- 25:22Speaker 2: the sight of his oppression of her, which is the
- 25:26Speaker 2: worst thing that a man could offer a woman. So
- 25:29Speaker 2: any relationship a man offers a woman is the worst
- 25:32Speaker 2: thing she could offer. Am What a surprise that women
- 25:35Speaker 2: no longer want to get in relationships with men unless
- 25:39Speaker 2: they have so much more to offer than just themselves
- 25:43Speaker 2: as a co partner in you know, in paddling the
- 25:48Speaker 2: boat of life? Right? Do you see how that works?
- 25:51Speaker 2: And where the marginalization comes from? And they're just like,
- 25:54Speaker 2: oh wow, this marginalization it just landed. Maybe it came
- 25:58Speaker 2: from an asteroid or sorry, meteorite hitting the earth. Maybe
- 26:02Speaker 2: it's some kind of disease that came.
- 26:04Speaker 1: They must be doing it to themselves. Other men must
- 26:08Speaker 1: be responsible.
- 26:09Speaker 2: You know, Yah, where did this marginalization come from?
- 26:14Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 26:14Speaker 2: Go ahead, damn okay, all right?
- 26:17Speaker 1: I got a super chat from Gary Thomas for five dollars.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Think of Gary Thomas and he says, whenever I'm feeling down,
- 26:23Speaker 1: I watch a YouTube channel called mom of six Japan.
- 26:28Speaker 1: It's just about a Japanese man and woman being a
- 26:31Speaker 1: family with their kids. Oh, man, that sounds really oppressive,
- 26:36Speaker 1: and then he gives another five dollars and says, now,
- 26:38Speaker 1: I always say her thing activated when I watch the channel,
- 26:42Speaker 1: you know, the chemicals and the female brain, Allison always
- 26:44Speaker 1: talks about. Yeah, it's kind of like what the when
- 26:48Speaker 1: the only fans thoughts are playing like Pragmata and they
- 26:50Speaker 1: see like the cute interactions with the android and they're like,
- 26:53Speaker 1: oh my god, I want a baby. But again, the
- 26:58Speaker 1: desire to have children is not really gone away. They
- 27:03Speaker 1: just don't there I don't know, condition to not find
- 27:07Speaker 1: maculine or something.
- 27:09Speaker 2: But yeah, this is the thing from my analysis again,
- 27:15Speaker 2: a bond with a man is is necessary, like it is.
- 27:21Speaker 2: If you don't have it, you are not going to
- 27:23Speaker 2: actualize that two point four children in any capacity. The
- 27:27Speaker 2: bond comes first, is what I'm what I'm finding from
- 27:31Speaker 2: my research, and in particular, you need like it seems
- 27:39Speaker 2: like some kind of survival threat or some kind of
- 27:41Speaker 2: survival stress is necessary to even activate the precondition for
- 27:46Speaker 2: women to bond. Yeah. So it's and again those cultures
- 27:52Speaker 2: that lived closest to survival seem to be aware of
- 27:55Speaker 2: this on an intuitive sense, and they provided the stress
- 28:00Speaker 2: to young women when they had gone through puberty in
- 28:03Speaker 2: order to activate that V one, a cross activation that
- 28:07Speaker 2: I keep talking about the brain hormones, get them, get
- 28:10Speaker 2: them circulating towards an adult end. But we don't do
- 28:15Speaker 2: that anymore. We overcosts it. Women. We treat them like glass.
- 28:21Speaker 2: And I think you said we should have a bullet
- 28:23Speaker 2: point in Plan twenty two. It or a Project twenty two,
- 28:28Speaker 2: Project twenty two or is it plan twenty two. It's
- 28:30Speaker 2: the thing that remember Natty was hysterical about like two
- 28:34Speaker 2: project yeah, project Yeah. We should have a bullet point
- 28:38Speaker 2: where all girls need to go through, like some kind
- 28:42Speaker 2: of initiation that involves yeah, yeah.
- 28:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, basically the coming of age rituals, like they
- 28:50Speaker 1: need something like that for women, absolutely yeah yeah.
- 28:54Speaker 2: And we were talking about girl scouts, and I've said
- 28:56Speaker 2: that it would if it was girl scouts, who would
- 28:58Speaker 2: have to be the most metal girl scouts? Y.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, they'd have to be really really hardcore girl scouts.
- 29:07Speaker 1: Yeah right, okay, So should I keep I'm gonna keep
- 29:10Speaker 1: going then, huh yep, Okay, here we go. So this
- 29:15Speaker 1: is the chart here? And why is the wait? Hold
- 29:19Speaker 1: on a second?
- 29:20Speaker 2: Check?
- 29:20Speaker 1: Check check, check, check, Okay, reduction. This is the chart
- 29:24Speaker 1: we were just talking about. Okay, So continuing this reduction
- 29:28Speaker 1: rate depends on whether the afflicted nations can prevent further decline,
- 29:33Speaker 1: but many experts believe fertility rates could continue to drop.
- 29:38Speaker 1: If these nations catch up with South Korea, which in
- 29:41Speaker 1: twenty twelve had a rate similar to Norway's current rate,
- 29:48Speaker 1: they will have ninety nine percent fewer children in only
- 29:51Speaker 1: four generations. However, how far these numbers will drop is uncertain.
- 29:56Speaker 1: South Korea's situation is unprecedented. Yeah, but they're ahead of
- 30:00Speaker 1: the curve, is how I would see it. It's not
- 30:03Speaker 1: like an anomaly. But you know, I don't think these
- 30:06Speaker 1: people are ready for that conversation. I got another super
- 30:09Speaker 1: chat from Senior Styx. He says the answer is government intervention. Second,
- 30:14Speaker 1: this is for the Chicago Deep Dish pizza Brian, for
- 30:16Speaker 1: which to share with those in the Badger Cave for
- 30:19Speaker 1: five dollars. Thank you. I'm not in Chicago, so but
- 30:22Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I moved to Virginia in twenty twenty,
- 30:26Speaker 1: so I can't get Deep Dish anymore, but I appreciate it.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Maybe one day, all right. Anyway. Demographic experts have primarily
- 30:35Speaker 1: explained the fertility crisis in terms of economic costs, changing values,
- 30:40Speaker 1: institutional arrangements of affecting work, family balance, and shifts in
- 30:46Speaker 1: gender roles. They have been less focused on psychological causes
- 30:50Speaker 1: on and mating market dynamics and are yet to offer
- 30:53Speaker 1: credible policy solutions. Again, there's no policy solution for this.
- 30:58Speaker 1: One thing is, though, I would say, like dating apps,
- 31:02Speaker 1: they have to go, like, I don't care how somebody
- 31:04Speaker 1: in the chat mentioned earlier they could make the government
- 31:06Speaker 1: should make a dating app. No, that's ridiculous. Dating apps
- 31:09Speaker 1: are absolute cancer. They are. They are part of what
- 31:13Speaker 1: where women get their sense of entitlement. Imagine being a
- 31:17Speaker 1: woman and you're absolutely like mid okay, and you get
- 31:22Speaker 1: on a dating app and you get spammed by multiple
- 31:27Speaker 1: dudes that are just like different varying levels of thirst,
- 31:31Speaker 1: which is a you know the other side of the coin.
- 31:33Speaker 1: But but that, like, all of that attention you're getting
- 31:36Speaker 1: from that app is gonna make you think that you're
- 31:38Speaker 1: worth a lot more than you are, and it's gonna
- 31:40Speaker 1: give you a distorted sense of self. So, no, dating
- 31:43Speaker 1: apps are absolute cancer. That's not the solution. I think
- 31:46Speaker 1: it's like you go outside, go somewhere where you can
- 31:50Speaker 1: meet someone, and start by making friends with men. I
- 31:53Speaker 1: don't know that's my opinion, but anyway.
- 31:57Speaker 2: So, actually that's that's actually really good idea. And so,
- 32:03Speaker 2: but if there's a government policy, it would be to
- 32:06Speaker 2: stop the current government interventions of promoting a particular ideology.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Just stop, just stop, just stop promoting feminism. Well, I'm
- 32:20Speaker 2: going to label it out right. Just stop promoting the
- 32:23Speaker 2: idea that heterosexuality is a status contest, because that's not
- 32:27Speaker 2: what it is, and start being honest to women about
- 32:33Speaker 2: what they're foregoing by not pairing up with their looks match. Right,
- 32:39Speaker 2: There's there's aspects to being in a bonded relationship that
- 32:44Speaker 2: you cannot get from casual sex, right, And and there
- 32:50Speaker 2: is this aspect that they constantly talk about being seen.
- 32:54Speaker 2: The only way a woman is seen is in a
- 32:57Speaker 2: bonded relationship with a man, like they're constantly talking about that.
- 33:02Speaker 2: And if you actually look at what they're talking about,
- 33:06Speaker 2: this idea of being fully recognized, Well, where does that
- 33:10Speaker 2: come from? Being recognized as an individual, being desired as
- 33:15Speaker 2: an individual? You're not going to get it from your
- 33:17Speaker 2: relational web, from your sisters, you're from a lesbian relationship.
- 33:21Speaker 2: You're not going to get it from Chad on a
- 33:23Speaker 2: freaking dating app. You're going to get it from a
- 33:26Speaker 2: man who is pair bonded to you, whose dopogenic reward
- 33:31Speaker 2: system is recruited by your specific partner targeted stimuli. Again,
- 33:38Speaker 2: I know that sounds really mechanistic, but that another word
- 33:41Speaker 2: for that would be love. Right, It's you become a reward,
- 33:46Speaker 2: a dopogenic reward for another human being. Right. That is
- 33:50Speaker 2: being seen. That is having somebody see your particular nature
- 33:55Speaker 2: and qualities and love them. And you can only get
- 34:00Speaker 2: that from a man. Yeah, because men are the only
- 34:05Speaker 2: ones who really have that depth of specificity. Like that,
- 34:09Speaker 2: that obsession with the specific. That's a male trade, you know,
- 34:15Speaker 2: like the the you know, the autistic guy with the trains,
- 34:18Speaker 2: that's an obsession with the specific. Newton is an obsession
- 34:24Speaker 2: with the specific. The Great Indoors sent me a video
- 34:29Speaker 2: of a of I think a Norwegian scientist or Swedish scientist,
- 34:34Speaker 2: or a mathematician who spent decades solving one particular mathematical problem.
- 34:42Speaker 2: That is an obsession with the specific. That is only
- 34:46Speaker 2: that only comes from men. So being seen this lauded
- 34:49Speaker 2: thing that all the relational web thinkers are constantly on about.
- 34:53Speaker 2: They can only get it from men, and you can
- 34:56Speaker 2: only get it from a specific man, because a man
- 34:58Speaker 2: who is just like like you were talking about those
- 35:01Speaker 2: guys who are thirsty and they're all like uh, or
- 35:04Speaker 2: even worse, the guy who knows that if he hits
- 35:07Speaker 2: well below his belt, like his weight, he's gonna get
- 35:11Speaker 2: her in and out of bed within like six hours. Right,
- 35:14Speaker 2: You're not gonna get that from him. Yeah, he has
- 35:18Speaker 2: no interest in you. You could take that, dude, and
- 35:22Speaker 2: you be replaced by a fleshlight attached to a human
- 35:26Speaker 2: female circulatory So he wouldn't care. I guess maybe there
- 35:31Speaker 2: would be an element of conquest, but he doesn't. There's
- 35:35Speaker 2: no specificity in his interest in you. Right, And and
- 35:40Speaker 2: this is what women are doing. They're replacing being seen,
- 35:45Speaker 2: the thing that they say is most important in their
- 35:48Speaker 2: entire life. They're replacing it with chasing being I don't
- 35:54Speaker 2: know what the relational web does. They'll never see you, period.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Other women will never do this. They're not equipped for it,
- 36:01Speaker 2: nor are they willing to give it to you. Let's
- 36:03Speaker 2: be honest. They'll be friendly, they'll be warm, but they
- 36:07Speaker 2: are not going to see you. And the only place again,
- 36:10Speaker 2: the only place you get that from a is a
- 36:13Speaker 2: man who's bonded to you. That's it. You get one shot,
- 36:18Speaker 2: maybe two if the first shot dies like but other
- 36:23Speaker 2: than that, you get like one shot. The average one
- 36:25Speaker 2: gets one shot and they are wasting it on being
- 36:31Speaker 2: a mobile self cleaning fleshlight. For Chad, you are the
- 36:38Speaker 2: fleshlight that removes itself at the end. You know, he
- 36:42Speaker 2: doesn't have to deal with cleaning you. You know, he
- 36:44Speaker 2: doesn't have to deal with storing you. He doesn't have
- 36:46Speaker 2: to deal with any uncomfortable questions, he doesn't have to
- 36:48Speaker 2: feel like a loser because you know, it's sort of
- 36:51Speaker 2: more social. But uh yeah, that's that's what you're That's
- 36:55Speaker 2: what you're exchanging for our ladies. The thing you want,
- 37:00Speaker 2: you're giving up in favor of chasing being a convenience
- 37:05Speaker 2: for men who will never give a crap about you
- 37:07Speaker 2: at all, or a relationship with another woman who is
- 37:11Speaker 2: categorically incapable of giving you what you want, so you
- 37:15Speaker 2: both will get into a death spiral of trying to
- 37:19Speaker 2: extract a thing neither of you can give each other,
- 37:23Speaker 2: and you wonder why lesbian relationships are the most violent,
- 37:27Speaker 2: the most sexually and physically violent, and then to divorce
- 37:30Speaker 2: the most Okay, let's keep going.
- 37:33Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's keep going.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Uh So.
- 37:41Speaker 1: One conclusion has been that since we lack effective countermeasures,
- 37:45Speaker 1: we should just adapt to the inevitable collapse. Uh. Sure.
- 37:51Speaker 1: Back suggests that we focus on personal fulfillment for the
- 37:55Speaker 1: people who remain, while Bainbridge propose we get ready for
- 37:58Speaker 1: a future as sogs this scholarly bewilderment. How is that scholarly?
- 38:04Speaker 1: It's over? Guys, I have concluded it's over. Let's be cyborgs.
- 38:10Speaker 2: Uh.
- 38:10Speaker 1: This that sounds like again and again, like we.
- 38:15Speaker 2: Could stop doing the thing that's made this a problem.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Huh Like it's it's it's like everybody's in the car
- 38:25Speaker 2: like a bus. We're all on the bus.
- 38:26Speaker 3: We're all headed towards the cliff, and the and the
- 38:29Speaker 3: people who are deciding what where we were, the ones
- 38:34Speaker 3: who are navigating and driving are all like, look at
- 38:37Speaker 3: the cliff.
- 38:39Speaker 2: What could we possibly do to stop ourselves from going
- 38:42Speaker 2: over the cliff? There are no options. Maybe what we
- 38:46Speaker 2: should do is build wings or learn to just live
- 38:51Speaker 2: life flat, you know, you know, we we will end
- 38:54Speaker 2: up splatting on the rocks blow. We'll just learn to
- 38:56Speaker 2: enjoy that. Why don't you just stop the bus?
- 39:00Speaker 1: One guy stood up and said, well, I guess we're
- 39:02Speaker 1: just gonna go, but that's it. Let's just make life
- 39:05Speaker 1: comfortable for for, you know, as many people on the
- 39:07Speaker 1: bus as possible. Another guy stood up and said, I'm
- 39:10Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna merge the the the drive shift my arm,
- 39:15Speaker 1: I'm gonna, yeah, I'm gonna join. Let's merge with the bus.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Let's become cyborgs. Those were and those were the what
- 39:21Speaker 1: are they to say? The the the academic the academics
- 39:27Speaker 1: that said that, the fucking demographic experts.
- 39:31Speaker 2: Oh oh, also, we could bring more people on the bus.
- 39:34Speaker 2: Surely that will stop it, even though they'll just share
- 39:37Speaker 2: our trajectory. Lord, oh or yeah that this These are
- 39:42Speaker 2: our thought leaders, guys. Nobody's nobody's saying like, why don't
- 39:46Speaker 2: we stop the bus? And if we can't stop, why
- 39:49Speaker 2: don't we turn the wheel? Huh could we do that? Yeah?
- 39:53Speaker 2: Nobody but us but us chickens. But the funny thing
- 40:00Speaker 2: is is that the academias recognize that this is a problem.
- 40:05Speaker 2: The billionaires recognize this is a problem. A good amount
- 40:08Speaker 2: of politicians are starting to recognize this is a problem. Right,
- 40:12Speaker 2: we're all start We're all for the most part, all
- 40:16Speaker 2: of the people on the edge of this problem were
- 40:17Speaker 2: recognizing it. But they can't do the obvious. They can't
- 40:21Speaker 2: be like, yeah, let's just stop the bus, everybody get off.
- 40:26Speaker 1: Okay, a couple of things. I got a super chat
- 40:29Speaker 1: and I see a message here. So Richard two four
- 40:33Speaker 1: seven seven seven gives us four ninety nine pounds and says,
- 40:37Speaker 1: have you watched my interview?
- 40:39Speaker 2: No?
- 40:39Speaker 1: Sorry, I have not seen it. I don't know where
- 40:41Speaker 1: to look for it. Did you link? You should drop
- 40:43Speaker 1: it in the discord server and tag us in it
- 40:45Speaker 1: or something. Uh. And the Great Indoor says that he's
- 40:49Speaker 1: having an issue with the feed the Badger website. He's
- 40:52Speaker 1: getting a five h two bad gateway message. Oh go, lord,
- 40:55Speaker 1: you might have to look at that if you're going
- 40:59Speaker 1: down the wrong path. Moves to turn around. Yeah, well, no, one.
- 41:03Speaker 1: The thing is, I think ultimately it comes down to this.
- 41:07Speaker 1: These people don't either don't have a solution because they're morons,
- 41:12Speaker 1: or they don't want to solve the problem because solving
- 41:15Speaker 1: the problem with mean, uh, addressing the woman question. And
- 41:21Speaker 1: they can't do that. They have to because you see,
- 41:24Speaker 1: the thing begins right the the the article began under
- 41:29Speaker 1: the just like flat out presumed the presumption that the
- 41:35Speaker 1: liberation of women is good. So because they began with
- 41:39Speaker 1: that and they didn't even question it, they didn't question
- 41:41Speaker 1: what that meant. They didn't question what the downstream consequences
- 41:44Speaker 1: of that might be. They didn't question what it meant
- 41:47Speaker 1: to like give women absolute control like birth control, what
- 41:50Speaker 1: that might have done. Whatever, they didn't and they didn't
- 41:53Speaker 1: ask what it meant when women entered the sort of
- 41:57Speaker 1: corporate job market and mass I know women have always worked,
- 42:00Speaker 1: I'm saying, like becoming wage slaves like men in mass
- 42:04Speaker 1: and what that meant that, No, none of that stuff
- 42:08Speaker 1: could be questioned. So we can't go back that far.
- 42:11Speaker 1: We have to like look at it right now, and
- 42:13Speaker 1: right now it looks like men of the problem. That's
- 42:15Speaker 1: how they that's what they're doing.
- 42:17Speaker 2: Well, literally, you can't accept any other potential source of
- 42:20Speaker 2: the problem. You've categorically closed You've categorically closed any potential
- 42:28Speaker 2: like other source of the problem. It can only be men.
- 42:32Speaker 2: That's the only thing that everybody can actually land on.
- 42:35Speaker 2: But what I'm trying to get at is, you can
- 42:37Speaker 2: see it's like a dog chewing or toffee for the
- 42:40Speaker 2: academics dealing with this issue, and the and the billionaires,
- 42:44Speaker 2: and they all recognize it's a problem, and they just
- 42:49Speaker 2: can't admit who's creating it. They just don't have the
- 42:54Speaker 2: cojones to be like and literally you can see the
- 42:58Speaker 2: causal relationship. How were men marginalized? How did that happen?
- 43:03Speaker 2: How did the relationship between men and women become so radioactive?
- 43:08Speaker 2: Who where did that come from?
- 43:10Speaker 1: How is it even possible that men could be marginalized?
- 43:12Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. Ye, that's kind of what they're operating under, right,
- 43:17Speaker 1: my men? What again? And all of the stuff that
- 43:20Speaker 1: we have today that we're at now, it's all presumed
- 43:24Speaker 1: to have been good, and that this like this whole
- 43:27Speaker 1: like continuing the human race thing, it's just kind of
- 43:29Speaker 1: like an unfortunate side effect, a necessary one, you know,
- 43:32Speaker 1: because we liberated women, you see, and that was that's
- 43:36Speaker 1: the most important thing.
- 43:37Speaker 2: So why can't we have all of the things that
- 43:40Speaker 2: cause the birth rate to crater and the society where
- 43:44Speaker 2: the birth rate doesn't creter. God, damn, men, get on
- 43:47Speaker 2: that ship. What is wrong with you? Why?
- 43:51Speaker 1: It's like those experimental meds that they're always advertising where
- 43:54Speaker 1: they tell you, you know, this thing will will solve,
- 43:57Speaker 1: like diabetes, but a side effect is also diabetes. Yeah,
- 44:03Speaker 1: potential side effects may include diabetes.
- 44:09Speaker 2: God, God, you guys are listening here, like, why why
- 44:12Speaker 2: haven't you figured this out?
- 44:14Speaker 1: Man?
- 44:15Speaker 2: Like, why haven't you figured out?
- 44:16Speaker 1: Like?
- 44:17Speaker 2: They want a society in which everything that creators the
- 44:19Speaker 2: birth rate exists, but the birth rate doesn't. Creter, Why
- 44:23Speaker 2: haven't you solved this problem? Men? Why haven't you fixed
- 44:28Speaker 2: this fixed? At?
- 44:30Speaker 1: Okay, all right, senior sticks gave us another super chat
- 44:34Speaker 1: and for five dollars, and said Alison. History has proven
- 44:39Speaker 1: that for most ladies they need a first marriage then divorce.
- 44:41Speaker 1: Most young ladies are less uncertain on the second marriage.
- 44:45Speaker 1: I'm not sure if that's a joke or not, but okay,
- 44:51Speaker 1: So back to this. This scholarly bewilderment contributes to many
- 44:55Speaker 1: nations mostly ignoring the existential threat or misunderstanding the relevant
- 45:00Speaker 1: contributors to low fertility. Others have experimented with pro natalist policies,
- 45:05Speaker 1: such as increasing financial transfers to families or restricting women's
- 45:09Speaker 1: reproductive freedoms, mostly without achieving significant results. Norway appointed a
- 45:15Speaker 1: birth rate Committee, but its suggestions and insights added little
- 45:20Speaker 1: to the discussion around how to understand and solve the
- 45:22Speaker 1: fertility crisis. Among the factors that in the past century
- 45:27Speaker 1: drove the decline from high to low fertility were reduced
- 45:30Speaker 1: child mortality, urbanization, gender equality, and reliable contraceptives. Main contributors
- 45:37Speaker 1: to the continuing decline to ultra low fertility are increasing
- 45:42Speaker 1: singleedom and delayed relationship formation. Well, why are they delayed
- 45:47Speaker 1: is because women are going to school for like ten years. Okay,
- 45:51Speaker 1: these photisk found These other guys, Thompson Ramo photisk found
- 45:57Speaker 1: that the time spent in a union during the re
- 46:00Speaker 1: productive lifespan is a key determinant of cumulated fertility.
- 46:05Speaker 2: No way, exactly what I said. Exactly what I said. Literally,
- 46:08Speaker 2: you need to get women in relationships with men. Otherwise
- 46:11Speaker 2: you are not going to solve this. You cannot go
- 46:14Speaker 2: against millions of years of accumulated evolution, my friends, That
- 46:20Speaker 2: is a losing proposition. Okay, what's gonna happen is everything
- 46:24Speaker 2: that impedes the process of human reproduction is going to
- 46:29Speaker 2: go bye bye. So you can kiss everything. You can
- 46:32Speaker 2: kiss dating apps, you can kiss feminism, you can kiss
- 46:35Speaker 2: your advanced civilization goodbye. If you do not solve this
- 46:39Speaker 2: problem correctly and not just keep blaming men and can
- 46:43Speaker 2: keep refusing to acknowledge where it's coming from. Okay, you
- 46:48Speaker 2: do not like this is literally you are trying to
- 46:51Speaker 2: start a fight with millions of years of evolved evolution.
- 46:54Speaker 2: Like evolution, we're talking about shit that knows, like the
- 47:00Speaker 2: what is it? The the it was there when the
- 47:02Speaker 2: spells were written.
- 47:04Speaker 1: You know, I was there when it was written.
- 47:07Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, like like that was there when
- 47:10Speaker 2: it was written, everything was written down it. It does
- 47:15Speaker 2: not care. It does not care. And the best you
- 47:19Speaker 2: can accomplish with this nonsense is the annihilation of the
- 47:22Speaker 2: human race. Congratulations. I mean species go extinct all the time.
- 47:26Speaker 2: The pandas appear to be going extinct for precisely the
- 47:30Speaker 2: same reason they don't breed. Right, But we are conscious
- 47:34Speaker 2: enough that we can identify the correct factors that are
- 47:37Speaker 2: getting away, getting in the way of our breeding and
- 47:40Speaker 2: get rid of them. And one of them is that
- 47:42Speaker 2: women are not pair bonding, they're not achieving the precondition
- 47:47Speaker 2: for fertility, and what is the solution of these people
- 47:50Speaker 2: make that worse? Oh well, we'll just root around men. Yeah, well, unfortunately, Okay,
- 47:58Speaker 2: here's how it works. Okay, Evolution makes it so that
- 48:03Speaker 2: a female requires a male to reproduce, and the more
- 48:08Speaker 2: difficult the raising of the resultant offspring is, the more
- 48:14Speaker 2: the female relies on the male. And I'm going to
- 48:17Speaker 2: inform everybody that the human offspring are the most difficult
- 48:27Speaker 2: offspring to bring to maturity in the entire world bar none,
- 48:32Speaker 2: which means the female relies on the male even more
- 48:37Speaker 2: more than any other female on the planet. So what
- 48:41Speaker 2: do you think is going to become a precondition for
- 48:43Speaker 2: her to breed having a bonded male partner, and without it,
- 48:49Speaker 2: she is not going to be in position on any
- 48:52Speaker 2: level to want to have children. Maybe accidentally she'll get
- 48:56Speaker 2: knocked up with Chad if she's extremely marginal, Like there's
- 48:59Speaker 2: all always been extremely marginal women in the world who
- 49:03Speaker 2: end up having children outside of wedlock because they just
- 49:10Speaker 2: are marginal. Apparently there's a certain association with sociopathy and
- 49:16Speaker 2: women and large amounts of children. Okay, I'm just putting
- 49:21Speaker 2: that out there. So there are female sociopaths who produce
- 49:25Speaker 2: large amounts of children outside of wedlock, all right, they've
- 49:29Speaker 2: always existed. We don't want that, okay, because that's where
- 49:33Speaker 2: male sociopaths come from. What we want is women forming
- 49:39Speaker 2: relationships with men and having access to the kind of
- 49:43Speaker 2: fertility that married women have. Okay. And there was a
- 49:46Speaker 2: comment a couple like a month or so ago where
- 49:49Speaker 2: someone was saying that married women don't have children, that
- 49:54Speaker 2: it's education. No, it isn't, and it's never been, especially
- 50:00Speaker 2: for Northern Europeans. Labor participation and education have never had
- 50:05Speaker 2: as much of an impact on fertility for Northern Europeans
- 50:09Speaker 2: as marriage formation in particular. And the reason why is
- 50:14Speaker 2: because in the weird cultures, right that that's the Northern
- 50:18Speaker 2: European cultures, the ones that are presumptively the most advanced.
- 50:23Speaker 2: I know, that's a a.
- 50:26Speaker 1: Enlightened like morally and socially. Is that what you mean?
- 50:29Speaker 2: Advance maybe, but just mechanicalists, mechanicists just in terms of innovation.
- 50:38Speaker 2: Northern Europeans have a unique pattern to the way that
- 50:42Speaker 2: they do reproduction. They have actually, like throughout their history,
- 50:48Speaker 2: at least under the Church, they did have a higher
- 50:51Speaker 2: amount of celibacy, so there was more monks, more nuns,
- 50:56Speaker 2: more maiden aunts and bachelor uncles and that kind of thing.
- 51:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 51:01Speaker 2: And also they got married later, not as late as
- 51:05Speaker 2: we do now, but like mid twenties to like mid
- 51:09Speaker 2: to late twenties. This has been the pattern for Northern
- 51:11Speaker 2: Europeans for centuries. And what they did is they replaced
- 51:19Speaker 2: early marriage and almost universal marriage with highly increased fertility
- 51:24Speaker 2: in marriage. So for example, in East Asia, almost everybody
- 51:28Speaker 2: got married, but nobody had sex and marriage. That's not
- 51:33Speaker 2: how the Europeans do. The Northern Europeans do. You would
- 51:36Speaker 2: have a long courtship, right so, and it would be
- 51:40Speaker 2: the church estoulish. And this is what I was laughing
- 51:43Speaker 2: at when you said that we were the first culture
- 51:45Speaker 2: that established consent for women. That's ridiculous. The Church did, right.
- 51:51Speaker 2: The Church replaced this kind of like elder kins selecting
- 51:57Speaker 2: your partner with the man in the woman selecting each
- 52:01Speaker 2: other like this is an innovation that the Church did.
- 52:04Speaker 2: It's actually really a radical change that the Christian Church did,
- 52:10Speaker 2: which is to have these long term courtships, to have
- 52:13Speaker 2: the man and the woman select each other. And that
- 52:19Speaker 2: ended up producing like and they know, like if you
- 52:21Speaker 2: listen to how Christians describe this stuff, they know exactly
- 52:23Speaker 2: what they're doing that produces bonds of unusual depth and
- 52:28Speaker 2: sexual intensity. And when you do that, you end up
- 52:33Speaker 2: with fewer married couples. But those married couples are like
- 52:35Speaker 2: averaging six children each, right, because they are they have
- 52:43Speaker 2: the drive to reproduce, a higher drive to reproduce. And
- 52:47Speaker 2: that's how Northern Europeans did. What ended up happening is
- 52:51Speaker 2: you end up with children with a lot more resources.
- 52:54Speaker 2: It's a very k type strategy. So each child has
- 52:56Speaker 2: a ton of resources. They have resources from their mother
- 52:59Speaker 2: and father, who usually spend the time acquiring resources or
- 53:04Speaker 2: skills in their early twenties. In particular, the father will
- 53:08Speaker 2: likely have established amounts of coalitions, like be part of
- 53:14Speaker 2: not communist communes, but the communes that they had in
- 53:16Speaker 2: Middle Ages, and guilds and societies and that kind of thing, sure,
- 53:21Speaker 2: and militias. Right, So you have that extended period of
- 53:26Speaker 2: time where both parents are gathering resources, both socially in
- 53:31Speaker 2: terms of skills and in terms of material resources. Plus
- 53:34Speaker 2: you have all of the other relatives who remain celibate,
- 53:40Speaker 2: and you have that all pouring into the two that
- 53:43Speaker 2: are producing a ton of children very quickly. And that's
- 53:47Speaker 2: how the Europeans did, the Northern Europeans very kay like
- 53:52Speaker 2: high amounts of resources pouring into fewer children. But we'll
- 53:59Speaker 2: not fewer children, but like uh more more focused on
- 54:04Speaker 2: and uh and that's that's how they did. So it's
- 54:08Speaker 2: like this this whole idea that it's education or labor
- 54:12Speaker 2: participation that reduces women's fertility. It's not, especially not for
- 54:16Speaker 2: Northern Europeans. It's the lack of properly forming marriage bonds.
- 54:22Speaker 2: We abandon that and now we're not forming marriage bonds
- 54:26Speaker 2: the way we did in our in our tradition, which
- 54:29Speaker 2: itself was a radical departure from any other culture on
- 54:33Speaker 2: the planet. Like most cultures, everybody marries their cousin and
- 54:37Speaker 2: it's arranged by their dad and their mom. In Northern
- 54:41Speaker 2: European with northern even in Israel they do it that way.
- 54:45Speaker 2: In Northern Europeans. You you go, you find your partners,
- 54:48Speaker 2: so you're probably And what they found is in like
- 54:51Speaker 2: Northern European, the immune uh like the immune different between
- 55:01Speaker 2: a man and a wife, like a husband and a
- 55:03Speaker 2: wife are far higher than anywhere else in the world.
- 55:06Speaker 2: So Europeans, Northern Europeans go and they find somebody who
- 55:11Speaker 2: is going to produce much healthier children, because under the
- 55:16Speaker 2: Christian model, you make the choice, and people tend to choose,
- 55:20Speaker 2: if they're not on birth control, a partner with an
- 55:24Speaker 2: immune profile that will enhance their own right. So it's
- 55:28Speaker 2: there's a whole confluence of factors. And again, especially for
- 55:32Speaker 2: Northern Europeans, we have to get back to or move
- 55:37Speaker 2: forward with an informed understanding of how we form paaramonds right,
- 55:43Speaker 2: And honestly, like when I say Northern European, now, pretty
- 55:46Speaker 2: much that's everybody who's gotten folded into that culture in
- 55:50Speaker 2: like the US. So sure like most of the like
- 55:56Speaker 2: the black people in the US are part white right there,
- 56:00Speaker 2: there aren't very much part of that culture, especially the
- 56:04Speaker 2: ones who aren't engaging in let's say, less desirable behaviors,
- 56:11Speaker 2: you know. So it's it's it's it's bigger now than
- 56:14Speaker 2: it was, it's not as exclusive, but it's also just
- 56:18Speaker 2: points to what the real problem is. And again it's
- 56:22Speaker 2: not female labor force participation, and it's not women's education.
- 56:28Speaker 2: It's the fact that we've abandoned how we historically arranged
- 56:31Speaker 2: our para bonds, and we have instead embraced a philosophy.
- 56:37Speaker 2: Uh I don't call it philosophy, an ideology that pathologizes it. Okay,
- 56:44Speaker 2: all right, back to this.
- 56:47Speaker 1: Yes, not surprisingly, when fewer women and men pair bond,
- 56:52Speaker 1: there are fewer couples who reproduce. Again, this is an
- 56:55Speaker 1: academic paper telling us this. This is like, this is
- 56:58Speaker 1: like fuck it high IQ stuff. Guys, did you know that?
- 57:03Speaker 1: Did you know that? When pete, when fewer men and
- 57:05Speaker 1: women in parabon, there are fewer children. I know you
- 57:08Speaker 1: didn't know that. Boom, you just got educated. I got
- 57:12Speaker 1: a super chat from Gary Thomas for five dollars again,
- 57:16Speaker 1: and he says the bright side, pandas are no longer
- 57:18Speaker 1: an endangerous species. A slight uptick in births has upgraded
- 57:22Speaker 1: them from an endangered to a vulnerable species. All right,
- 57:26Speaker 1: thank you. Yeah, because we're looking rich. We got our
- 57:28Speaker 1: priorities together. I wonder, I wonder if the uh you know,
- 57:32Speaker 1: distant space rocks or bacteria are reproducing at the correct rates.
- 57:36Speaker 1: We have to concern ourselves with those those those numbers.
- 57:40Speaker 1: Gary Thomas gives another super chat for ten dollars. Thank you, Gary,
- 57:43Speaker 1: and says, also, how true is the idea that East
- 57:46Speaker 1: Asians don't make whoopee after marriage? I've heard it before,
- 57:50Speaker 1: but not sure of its truth. And where did the
- 57:52Speaker 1: children come from them?
- 57:54Speaker 2: It's statistical. The children come from the fact that everybody
- 57:59Speaker 2: gets married. So if you have a like if you
- 58:03Speaker 2: have a Northern European society where let's say eighty percent
- 58:06Speaker 2: of people get married or even sixty percent, because there
- 58:10Speaker 2: was a pretty high rate of celibacy, and like Newton,
- 58:13Speaker 2: wasn't that unusual and it isn't actually that unusual cat
- 58:17Speaker 2: ladies and eternal bachelors for our for our culture, that's
- 58:21Speaker 2: not that unusual. What's unusual is that it's really reduced
- 58:26Speaker 2: the amount of women who end up married. But if
- 58:28Speaker 2: you let's say you got sixty percent of the population marries,
- 58:33Speaker 2: but once they get married, they have like six to
- 58:35Speaker 2: ten children, right, you have? But and then you look
- 58:40Speaker 2: at like ninety percent of the population gets married, but
- 58:44Speaker 2: they only have two to three children, right, do you
- 58:48Speaker 2: see that one is going to end up overall with
- 58:51Speaker 2: greater fertility and one is going to end up with less.
- 58:54Speaker 2: And what's happening in East Asia is or at least
- 58:56Speaker 2: historically is they did have almost universal marriage along the
- 59:00Speaker 2: same lines as I've been talking about, which is elderkin
- 59:03Speaker 2: selected and likely causing marriage. But they didn't reproduce or
- 59:10Speaker 2: they didn't produce as much offspring in their marriages, which
- 59:14Speaker 2: likely means that they weren't engaging in the preconditions that
- 59:19Speaker 2: lead to offspring, if you know what I mean, whereas
- 59:24Speaker 2: the European couples were. And the way that Christian courtship
- 59:30Speaker 2: is arranged is that it and I've looked at this
- 59:33Speaker 2: in terms of the endocrine architecture, it's arranged in such
- 59:37Speaker 2: a way that you maximize the like the hormonal intensity
- 59:43Speaker 2: of eventual consummation. So it's it really deepens the bond
- 59:50Speaker 2: and I would say eroticizes it considerably more than any
- 59:55Speaker 2: other form of courtship. Like just meeting your prospective bride
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: on the day of your marriage isn't going to do that.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: Be having it arranged by your elder kid isn't going
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: to do that. Marrying your cousin isn't going to do
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: that because there's going to be like immune system incompatibilities
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: there because they're too close. That's why we tend to
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: be exogamists. That means we look outside of our natal
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: group for a partner. It's because we want to get
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: that immune diversity, which increases our fertility and increases the
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: health of our offspring. So that's what the Christian courtship
- 1:00:37Speaker 2: model is, maximizing the health the offspring. The sexual intensity
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: of the relationship. That's what they don't talk about, but
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: based on my architectural reading, they are literally creating the
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: deepest well of hormonal intensity on consummation of any other
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: form of courtship. So essentially they just the Christian courtship's
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: aim is to create two people who are intoxicated with
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: each other. That's what it does. And there is no
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: sexual experience that is going to be as deep and
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: profound and as intense as what they're creating. Like, there's
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: no technique that can compare to it. There's no uh like,
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: because technique is just basically nervous system stimulation, whereas this
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: is max hormone maxing and there's nothing that can compare
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: to that. So and the and the benefits of it,
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: and probably why the Christian version of marriage, which is
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: really what caused everybody to convert, really is that it
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: has these inherent bonuses to the people who engage in it.
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: So there's a question, right, So the question I'm answering
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: is why did the Christian system convert so many people
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: in Europe when the previous system would have had incredible
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: like social entrenchment if you think about it, because it
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: was the linear system. Like you, it was the way
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: that you kept property in a family, in a clan,
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: in a tribe. So there would be a huge incentive
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: to keep to the cousin marriage, to the polygamy, the polygyny,
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: to all of the things that they were practicing before Christianity.
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: So what was the incentive for these people to convert?
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: And I think this is my hypothesis. The incentive was
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: the honeymoon was the fact that the Christian system was
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: more and sexually, erotically and emotionally and in terms of
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: the intensity of bond was more intense, like it was
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: more it was more enticing. So that was the conversion point.
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: That was the conversion benefit. Like the sales pales pitch
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: sure as opposed to what it usually is is that
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: you know, the Christians came in, they forced everybody, so
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: you know, yeah, all of the like Friar tucks. They
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: all forced everybody at the point of a stave and
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: a flagon of beer. That's what That's what happened. I
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: don't think so. I mean, yes, in some cases, the
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: the the lords were the ones who converted, and then
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: they forced everybody else to convert. But that wasn't always
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: the case. Often it was from bottom up. So how
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: did that happen? How did they can they make this
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: universal conversion, conversion of a marriage system, one from one
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: to the other. Right, And that's my that's my hypothesis.
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: They knew what they were doing and they sold it
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: to the young people, just like rock and roll. Okay,
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: all right, all right.
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: Similar increases are found across low fertility nations. This trend
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: seems not to have reached saturation. By one estimate, forty
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: five percent of American women aged twenty five through forty
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: four will be single in twenty thirty, supporting the link
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: between this global relationship recession and declining fertility. Burn Murdoch
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: demonstrated how several nations show an observable association between reduced
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: pair bonding and declining fertility rates. In his analysis, periods
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: in which countries experienced temporary increases in partnership formation tended
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: to coincide with corresponding rises in fertility. Norwegian fertility and
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: single rates show a similar co movement over time. It varies, however,
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: how much of a certain period's decline in natural fertility
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: is explained by a reduction in pair bonding. Several counteracting
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: or heterogeneous factors operates simultaneously. The most recent Nordic fertility
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: drops were primarily caused by reduced fertility within relationships, while
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: Australian and East Asian fertility declines were predominantly caused by
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: increasing single rates. Despite notable contextual differences, higher singlehood is
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: robustly associated with lower fertility.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: Okay, do they count lesbian relationships in with heterosexual relationships
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: in Norway? Do they? They did disambiguate those. I don't know.
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: If they don't, then I can tell you where some
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: of the lower reproduction, lowered reproduction within relationships is coming from.
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: But I have to look at it more closely.
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: I got a super chat from Senior Stix for five dollars. Again,
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: he says marriage is always about combining resources. Cousin marriage
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: is common. Christian marriages bunk Christian conversation was about control
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: and then puts not all in parentheses.
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: Okay, but again the Christian form of marriage formation ended
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: up out competing the cousin form of marriage formation, the
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: cousin kin form of marriage formation. All right, and it's
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: and honestly, the Christians never maybe there was a situation
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: where they would appeal to a lord, but they didn't
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: go into these situations using military force. It was always persuasion.
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: And then maybe they would persuade someone who was able
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: to use military force. So that's a and like if
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: you can explain how they managed to convert entire societies
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: from cousin polygamy kin based system to this more I
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: guess modern form of relationship formation. I'm all yours. Let's
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: let's continue, all right.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: Anti natalists attitude seem not to contribute significantly to low fertility.
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: Only three percent of European women age eighteen through forty
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: consider zero children in the ideal family size. In Norway,
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: women on average report a preference for two point four children,
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: but have only one point four. Such fertility gaps between
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: desired and actual offspring are common in low fertility nations.
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: Americans consider the ideal family size to include two point
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: seven children, but their fertility rate is one point six.
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: TESTA found that European women on average want two point
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: two women are children, with lack of the right partner
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: being the most frequently cited reason for not achieving intended fertility.
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: Okay, so can we not take that as the actual problem? Right? Okay,
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: So women want two point four children if they find
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: a partner. And what happening is we have a social
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: ideology that makes them believe that the average man is
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: an appropriate partner. Right, so because he is like that,
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: the relationship is recast of one of like mutual support
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: and something like an instinctive kind of mutual understanding, but
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: also satisfaction into a status competition in which a woman
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: will only submit if she gets you know, she gets
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: his bag and her bag and everybody's bag. You know,
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: you got to pile all those bags on the table
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: before she's going to submit to being subordinate to a
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: man and a hitter sexual relationship. You see how that
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: hypergrammy comes right out of what feminist frame heterosexuality to be.
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: And then the other thing is is that again the
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: Northern European pattern has always had female labor force participation,
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: acquiring of resources, education, It hasn't lacked fertility until feminists
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: bombed the site of pair bonding, like they turned it
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: into something radioactive, and then suddenly we have a fertility problem.
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: Suddenly we have a pair bonding problem. Like we're looking
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: at all of these other factors, and we didn't have
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: a problem before then, right, we didn't have a problem
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: until feminists got their hooks in there and started tearing
- 1:09:33Speaker 2: it apart and started presenting heterosexuality as a source of
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: status competition. And then you have women who don't want
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: to engage in it because they think that they're in
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: an eternal fight with a man, which sounds like it's exhausting,
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: or they think that the only like if they're gonna
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: have to submit, he be better sweetened the deal, well
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: beyond the app what the average man can do, like,
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: and feminists literally said, we're here to destroy that. We're
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: here to destroy heterosexual outity. We're here to destroy marriage
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: right here, that's what we're here for. And then they did,
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: and everybody's like, how did that happen? And then we're
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: blaming things like women's education, women's work. Well, women who
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: are always educated and they always worked, don't look at
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: what feminists say about the world and agree with it
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: and assume that they are right. They're one hundred percent wrong,
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: And it also hides their influence. If everybody's blaming women's
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: workplace participation or their education for lowered fertility, then we
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: don't blame feminism, do we. We don't blame the women
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: who literally said, we're destroying relation. We're going to destroy
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: human pair bonding. We're going to turn it into a
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: status competition, which will make the average woman not want
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: to deal, not want to engage in it, or or
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: be unable to see stain it, and also want men
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: to sweeten the deal beyond what they are the average
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: man is capable of. Like we're looking, we're tilting at
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: windmills when we look at this other stuff. When we
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: look at advanced age in terms of marriage, well, Northern
- 1:11:15Speaker 2: Europeans always did that, women's labor participation, Northern Europeans always
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: did that, women's education, Northern Europeans always did that. You
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: know a certain amount of celibacy in that, well, Northern
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: Europeans always did that. So what's happening now and in
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: what's happening now is feminism and government intervention, Like that's it,
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: and If you want to go back to like cousin
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: marriage and can arrangement, then embrace our immigrant overlords because
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: they're bringing it.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: Like that.
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: That's what they're bringing. Ye, embrace Sharia law, embrace the
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: poop street. Okay, guys like you want Northern European culture,
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: do you want like Southeast Asian culture? Which do we
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: want here? Make your disjoyce. If you don't like church marriage,
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: you don't get the benefits of Northern European culture. If
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: you want to go back to kN Ki's cousin marriage
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: and elder kins polygamy, yeah, polygyny, then we then we
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: get the poop street, right, we get the constant and
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: not a British cast system. You're gonna get all of
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: the fellow travelers of marrying your cousin based on what
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: your mom told you to do. Okay, all of it.
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: You're gonna get the whole spread. So make your choice.
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: And I'm not saying we have to necessarily be like
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: Jesus is King. We just need to understand what Christians
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: did and what the Church did and what the Church
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: accomplished and maybe gives them like some benefit for the
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: fact that the culture that is a direct descendant of
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: everything that they did was so successful. Maybe a little
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: bit of credit there, and again, we don't have to
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: go into the whole religiosity thing. Just give credit where
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: credits do.
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, go ahead, Okay. So I think you basically
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: said what needed to be said about that when women
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: struggle to secure a long term partner in their twenties,
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: they have their reproductive windows shortened and many end up childless.
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: These dynamics suggest that trying to increase pair bonding rates
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: is the obvious way forward for nations hoping to avoid
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: a demographic collapse. Unfortunately, experts are unsure also of the
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: psychological causes behind reduced pair bonding. Among their suggestions for
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: what explains the decline in relationships are dating apps, political polarization,
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: a preference for singlehood, individualism, materialism, attachment issues, social media use,
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: economic inequality, and poor flirting skills not flirting flirting skills. Okay,
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: those elements could all play in, but we argue that
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: our era's dramatic reduction impair bonding has deeper roots. It
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: is grounded in our history as a species, and thus
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: we can take an evolutionary psychological approach to the complex
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: mating malaise that is afflicting a growing number of nations.
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: Through investigating the six million year history of hominin mating,
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: we discuss the functions and sex differences of Homo sapiens's
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: short and long term sexual strategies, which are the foundations
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: of today's maladaptive mating. We then use the insights or
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: these insights into human mating psychology to analyze men's and
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: women's behavior on dating apps and in other dating contexts.
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: Oh good lord, so we can't, of course. Do you
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: know who's conveniently omitted from the list the ideology that
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: explicitly said it was going to destroy pair bonding? Do
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: you notice that they just skip over that and at
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: the pervasive adoption of it in everything, government, corporation, academia, NGOs,
- 1:15:22Speaker 2: political systems. Everywhere it's been adopted and become primary. Divorce
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: lawyers love it, by the way, So you would think
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: that that would be a sign if divorce lawyers love
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: your ideology that you aren't for human pair bonding, like
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: you aren't actually promoting it. But no, it might be
- 1:15:46Speaker 2: like a moment where you'd be like, are we the batties?
- 1:15:49Speaker 2: Divorce lawyers seem to love us. Are we the batties
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: like no that never didn't even stop, just kept rolling along, right,
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: But yeah, we can't even identify that. We can't even
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: start there, or even not even start there. Just maybe
- 1:16:03Speaker 2: have it as part of the list. You notice that
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: Brian just completely skipped over.
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: Mm hmm, I think we got another. Did I see
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: another super chat or something?
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: No?
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: I didn't. Oh yeah, no I did Superchow Dark. Kimora
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: got a super Chow through, So I guess that's working
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: now or or something. Okay, and says for five dollars
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: could watch it from the start today, we'll watch it
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: in full after it's done. Also, Lifetime aliony was just
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: abolished in Turkey. Let's celebrate. Well that's good. That's good, okay,
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: So yeah, back to this uh. Based on these investigations,
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: we argue that the modern world's uniquely resourced, rich, and
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: gender equal environments have triggered what we term a mating
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: equilibrium shift, possibly a main driver of today's declining pair
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: bonding and fertility rates in many nations. Female freedoms and
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: material prosperity see to motivate women to place greater emphasis
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: on short term strategies, non bonded mating. But in terms
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: of reproduction, these strategies are rendered maladaptive by contraceptives.
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: We want to get in here, I'm going to get
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: in here. Okay. Women always had resources, and they were
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: always developing resources, especially in Northern European cultures. So this
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: doesn't explain it at all. Female freedoms and material prosperity.
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: What do they mean by that? Right? Women always almost
- 1:17:34Speaker 2: always had freedom commiserate with the ability to create a
- 1:17:37Speaker 2: safe and comfortable environment. So if a culture was able
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: to create a safe and comfortable public commons, women would
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: be allowed to move about in it and pursue business.
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: You see that you're in Rome in the Roman culture.
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: Like ancient Rome, women were building businesses. In ancient Rome
- 1:17:59Speaker 2: they were thirty percent of the owners of brick founders boundaries,
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: and even higher percentages in more female dominated businesses like
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: tailoring or fabric making and beer and food production and
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: butchery like this has always been the case that women
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: had as much freedom as their men could afford to
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: give them, and material prosperity. Like when did it stop
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: where women were cap were inheritors? Like when did the
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: wealthy widow thing? Like this is not a thing throughout history.
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: Of course, it was a thing throughout history. In the
- 1:18:39Speaker 2: Roman system, daughters inherited equally with sons, so and many
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: European cultures are based on Roman law. Common law is
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: also based on large parts on Roman law. So where
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: are they getting this idea that female prosperity. I'm sorry, Like,
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: there are very rich women throughout history that still got
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: married and had children. Consider Eleanor of Aquitaine, you know,
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: consider Queen Queen Victoria. Like this is this is ridiculous.
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: And what they're doing is they're trying to associate the
- 1:19:18Speaker 2: loss of human pair bonding with things that they consider
- 1:19:23Speaker 2: non negotiable virtues, which are bullshit. Femininism didn't give women
- 1:19:30Speaker 2: the ability to have businesses and gain education. Okay, if
- 1:19:37Speaker 2: you look at the current educational system. Prior to universities,
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: universities used to be this weird fringe thing, and women
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: were women got involved in universities. Once getting involved gave
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: more benefit than it took because for a long time,
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: universities had to build up a reputation, and they did
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: so by the p by the men being involved in them,
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: doing things that people were interested in and found valuable.
- 1:20:06Speaker 2: So men got involved in the university system, they built
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: up the reputation, they built up the value, and then
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: when participation in the university system gained the person participating
- 1:20:17Speaker 2: more value than it took in terms of expense, women
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: got involved, which is the usual record of all of
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: human history. We don't need feminism for that. We just
- 1:20:27Speaker 2: need male nature, because usually men are building these things
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: in order to benefit women to some degree down the road,
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: either as their wives or sometimes directly as their students.
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: So there you go. You don't need feminism for that.
- 1:20:43Speaker 2: This is assuming that feminism is responsible for these virtues,
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: and these virtues are in direct opposition with human pair bonding,
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: so what they're constructing is a false dichotomy in order
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: to retain the virtue of female education, the virtue of
- 1:21:00Speaker 2: female employment and women having resources, which everybody agrees throughout
- 1:21:05Speaker 2: all of human history was important unless you're talking about
- 1:21:09Speaker 2: the French, all right, but let's not talk about the French.
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: They're weird, Okay. Everybody agreed that women having resources was important,
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: even in sumer Like the ancient Sumerian kings were like,
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: we're going to give legal provisions for widows, right because
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: we think and also dowry for girls that are poor,
- 1:21:30Speaker 2: because we think giving resources to women is important, like
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: this is a universal throughout all of human history, and
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: they are trying to pretend like this is a feminist
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: virtue and that we can't have this virtue and we
- 1:21:50Speaker 2: can't see women being educated, women having resources, we can't
- 1:21:53Speaker 2: have that and pair bonding. Do you see what they're
- 1:21:56Speaker 2: doing here? All right? And then they wonder why everything
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: gets worse because the truth is that women having resources
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: and women having education was never in opposition with female
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: pair bonding, at least definitely in northern European cultures, probably
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: likely true everywhere. Right, they're making these false dichotomies. They're
- 1:22:24Speaker 2: making you force. They're forcing a choice in order to
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: prevent the actual solution, or to forestall the actual solution,
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: or even recognizing the actual solution. Because once you acknowledge
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: that most human societies wanted women to have resources and
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: the means to build those resources and enjoy those resources,
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: and receive those resources from their families and use those
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: resources to build families of their own, and that they
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: also were okay with women's education, which is why a
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: lot of elite women got a lot of education, right,
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: they were all okay with that. Then you have to
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: realize that something else must be wrong right with our society.
- 1:23:06Speaker 2: And it's not that women are working, because do you
- 1:23:10Speaker 2: think that in a hunter gather society women didn't work
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: or didn't have material resources. No. Do you think that
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: throughout all of human evolution that women didn't have material work,
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: no material resource. Do you think that they didn't have
- 1:23:26Speaker 2: whatever education was required for them to navigate their environment. No,
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: that was always an aturnal That is a constant throughout
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: human history, and it is a constant that those societies
- 1:23:38Speaker 2: wanted to give those things to their women. So something
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: else changed. And when you point to those things and
- 1:23:44Speaker 2: then you say, well, feminism made those things, which they didn't.
- 1:23:47Speaker 2: It didn't. Human nature makes those things right. And then
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: you say, well those things are the problem, you're basically
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: saying to everybody, Well, in order to have children, you
- 1:24:00Speaker 2: have to all become demons. You have to all define
- 1:24:05Speaker 2: the fundamental desires that you have to make sure that
- 1:24:09Speaker 2: your daughters are educated and have resources and are protected
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: through the process of reproduction. You have to deny that
- 1:24:17Speaker 2: in order to reproduce. And this false dichotomy is why
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: our reproduction is being destroyed, and this false dichotomy is
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: created by feminism and also people like this perpetuating it.
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I got a super chat. It's okay,
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: and then I'm going to read some more. So mister
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: Neubid gave us five dollars and said, Simona and Malcolm
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: found extreme European birth rate dropped after industrialization started and
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: less working from home from like TFR eleven to eight.
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: What the TFR eleven eight stands for? But yeah, well
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: you talked about that on this channel too. I mean,
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: industrialization did, but we were still like above replacement rates.
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: So and it was only industrialization that allowed feminism as
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: a movement to grow as well, because it was happening
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: around the same time.
- 1:25:12Speaker 2: I think.
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: So I wouldn't blame industrialization because I think that there
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: are plenty of people who are doing just fine in
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: the modern world and we're still living in the best
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: time in history. It's just that women, Well, that's it.
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: It's just that women.
- 1:25:31Speaker 2: Yeah, that women have been sold a bill of goods. Yeah,
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: they've been sold a bill of goods, right, and they
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: don't realize that they've been told that they have to
- 1:25:43Speaker 2: adhere to this destructive belief system that encourages them to
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: engage in the worst choices about their own lives or
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: they're going to be taken advantage of by men. And
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: yet what they describe wanting being seen, they can only
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: get from men. And yet feminism insists that men. That's
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: the thing that feminism insists most on, that men will
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: never actually see women. You will never be seen by
- 1:26:16Speaker 2: a man. So when a man pair bonds with you,
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: it's about you being an object, not a person, not
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: somebody who is seen with absolute fidelity like uh and
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: who who someone who will grow to love every things
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: about you that you that the social web would never
- 1:26:38Speaker 2: acknowledge is acceptable, right like, like you can only ever
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: be seen by a man who loves you. And feminism
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: insists to women that men can never love them and
- 1:26:54Speaker 2: that they can never get that from men. And then
- 1:26:56Speaker 2: we wonder why pair bonding is going into a nosedive,
- 1:27:00Speaker 2: And it is women. It's women who are getting suckered
- 1:27:02Speaker 2: into this nonsense, and they are gaining the they are
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: reaping the whirlwind of misery because of it. All right.
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: Also, one last thing about this too. They say that
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: they female freedoms and material prosperity seem to motivate women
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: to place greater emphasis on short term strategies non bonded mating.
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: So this this only operates under the assumption that firstly,
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: children don't need fathers, so they're basically like we'll just
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: have them and that. Secondly, and more importantly, that children
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: don't need like a lot of support when they are born.
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: Like human beings are not like you know, foals, you know,
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: like like horses, horses like that are born are walking
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: within like what a few minutes. Like deer that are born,
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: they start walking around shortly after they're born, and they're
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: basically like on their own. Humans we don't work that
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: way like we babies. Our infants are vulnerable for like
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: a year at least, right, I mean, like they were.
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: They remain vulnerable for a long time.
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: So you know people, Yeah, children don't actually can't keep
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: up with adults until they're probably uh like maybe ten
- 1:28:20Speaker 2: nine ten.
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: Yeah, So you got to invest a tremendous amount of time,
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: require a tremendous amount of investment.
- 1:28:27Speaker 2: Just to get to the point where they can keep
- 1:28:30Speaker 2: up to you physically. That's not even that's not even
- 1:28:32Speaker 2: full like maturity in terms of tool use skills and
- 1:28:36Speaker 2: being useful to the group, fully useful to the group,
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: or reproductive maturity like that takes even longer, and reproductive
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: maturity for for humans involves a lot of social skills,
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: you know. And so it's it they like human children
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: are the most difficult children to get to the point
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: of reproducing themselves on the in it like our life
- 1:29:01Speaker 2: cycle is insanely difficult, and that would explain why women
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: want to pair bond before they're willing to even embark
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: upon it. And the the idea that female freedoms of
- 1:29:18Speaker 2: material prosperity seem to motivate women to place greater emphasis
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: on short term strategies. No, it's just a dysfunction, right.
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: And this is this is a terrible strategy. This is
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: like a civilization.
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: It's not a strategy. It's a dysfunction. Like they've turned
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: sexuality into a status competition, and they basically like the
- 1:29:43Speaker 2: entire hookup culture is a dysfunction. I'm sorry, guys, it's
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: a dysfunction. And I know this is going to be
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: like this the much refuted SEXI don people like this
- 1:29:57Speaker 2: is like SEXI don is nonsense and one of the
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: most plain and simple empirical bits of evidence that proved
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: that human beings are not promiscuous and never intended to be.
- 1:30:13Speaker 2: Is literally the STD load, the sexually transmitted disease load.
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: Chimpanzees who are promiscuous breeders have a immune adaptation to
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: dealing with that. They don't have STDs like we do.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: We have STDs like a population, like they hit us
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: like a nuclear bomb. Because we were never intended to
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: be screwing around to this degree.
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: And I know that STDs that that's probably offensive to people.
- 1:30:49Speaker 2: And if again, if we were, I don't even know
- 1:30:53Speaker 2: if there's like gregarious promiscuous species, but if we were
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: intended to act in this way, our immunees would have
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: evolved to control it. And that's that's the problem. It
- 1:31:05Speaker 2: hasn't like we were not.
- 1:31:08Speaker 1: Your mic is breaking up a lot right now.
- 1:31:11Speaker 2: Oh really interesting. There's a bit of rain out there,
- 1:31:15Speaker 2: so maybe has it been breaking up all this time?
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: No, it just started, but it's fine now.
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: Okay, Well what I was saying, Okay, well, maybe just
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: read some more. I think I got.
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: All right. Low fertility societies have thus entered what we
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: call the post pair bonding fertility trap, in which too
- 1:31:37Speaker 1: few stable couples from early and durably form early and
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: durably enough to sustain replacement level fertility. This trap is
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: a consequence of the female choice fertility paradox, when women's
- 1:31:50Speaker 1: free mate choices, combined with economic independence and effective contraception,
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: systematically favors mating strategies that undermine pair bonding and in
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: turn realize fertility.
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: No.
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: No, what they're doing is that you're breaking up a lot.
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: Do you have like a is there like a storm
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: or something like, yeah, it's probably Let me see if
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: your connection is good. I mean, your connection seems okay.
- 1:32:15Speaker 1: I don't know, if it's like your microphone.
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: Go ahead, Okay, well I might be able to I'll
- 1:32:24Speaker 2: just I'll just.
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: It's not fine now you just he's not fine, now
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: all right?
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: It might just be It might I don't know, maybe
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: it's some kind of interference that's going on. If I
- 1:32:35Speaker 2: sound fine now I will continue. This is this is
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: ridiculous again. And this is why I bring up the
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: fact that women worked in the past, and they had
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: education in the past. The feminism didn't create that. What
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: feminism created was this idea that heterosexuality isn't a mutual project.
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: It is a status competition between men and women and
- 1:33:00Speaker 2: which women are oppressed. But that's what that's what happened, right.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: So the idea that and and the other thing is
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: that the Church already created women's free mate choice. Unless
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: you were a princess like you, you are generally freely
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: choosing your mate. Like that's that's the thing that one
- 1:33:21Speaker 2: of the things that the Church did, it replaced again
- 1:33:25Speaker 2: elder kin selection and marrying your cousin, was being able
- 1:33:28Speaker 2: to choose your own partner. And that didn't but that
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: the families are that were formed that way through women's
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: free mate choice and extended courtship in the church's model
- 1:33:42Speaker 2: were highly fertile, and that didn't impede para bonding. Okay,
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: so this is all wrong. They're forcing they're creating a
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: forced dichotomy and saying, well, unless we want to rape
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: women and keep them in chained to the dungeon we
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: we want, we just can't have children in a harper rk.
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: We just can't have pair bonds, like, well, that's nonsense.
- 1:34:05Speaker 2: The church proves the way the Church constructed marriage for
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: centuries proves that paara bonds can't exist with female make choice.
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: What are you talking about and can't exist with women's education. Men. Hell,
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: if you want to talk about pair bonds and women's education,
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: you can look at for throughout the medieval Church's history,
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: they sometimes had these experiments or they had monasteries with
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: mixed sex populations. Now for the most part, they kept
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: them apart, but they would still you know, interact, and
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: you're having like monks and nuns getting married, like first
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: they will the monastery like administration would be like could
- 1:34:47Speaker 2: you stop, like you do some penance and then see
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: if you can stop, And if they couldn't, then they'd
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: just be like, Okay, you're gonna have to become lay
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: and get married and become lay. You can still be
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: part of the community, but you can't continue to not
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: distained from sex while being you know, having monastic vows.
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: And that's what they do. So and you're talking about
- 1:35:07Speaker 2: like nuns were the most educated women in the Middle Ages,
- 1:35:12Speaker 2: and they still got paarabond, like, they still got married,
- 1:35:16Speaker 2: they still felt the call of the wild. So this
- 1:35:21Speaker 2: is and again like this is a forced dichotomy. They're
- 1:35:24Speaker 2: saying we either rape women and no longer educate them,
- 1:35:28Speaker 2: or allow them to have property, or we have a
- 1:35:31Speaker 2: birth rate, so we either do horrible things that everybody's
- 1:35:36Speaker 2: against or we die as a species. Like they're forcing
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: this dichotomy, and they're wondering why forcing this dichotomy is
- 1:35:46Speaker 2: resulting in nobody getting married.
- 1:35:49Speaker 1: Yep, Okay, it's okay. This is a new and unique situation.
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: With the post nineteen sixties mating regimes, Western societies became
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: the first human communities for large counity in which individual
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: made choice became the norm. After practicing near universal arranged
- 1:36:14Speaker 1: marriage probability, I'm sorry, After practicing near universal arranged marriage
- 1:36:20Speaker 1: probably for hundreds of thousands of years, Homo sapiens were
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: finally free to choose their own partners, whether for committed
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: relations or casual sex. Not only do women now have
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: free made choice, but their professional empowerment has reduced men's
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: utility to them, meaning that women have less need for
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: the material resources men bring to a relationship. Consequently, women
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: exclude more men from their pool of potential partners. Empirical
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: research supports that when women are less dependent on men
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: for resources, they partner up to a lesser extent. Yeah,
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: because they're also convinced that they don't need men. I
- 1:37:03Speaker 1: think that's whatever. Female freedoms have brought tremendous benefits to society.
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: Oh here, here's the cope, here's the coke part. Guys. Oh,
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: this is a good thing. Though, this is a good thing.
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: Female freedoms have brought tremendous benefits to societies and to
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: both sexes in many respects, but experts have to have
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: often been reluctant to emphasize their relationship to ultra low fertility,
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: some fear and anti feminist backlash, a concern that may
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: have attributed contributed to a more avoidant communication strategy among
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: fertility researches, their unwillingness to properly sound the alarm and engage. Also,
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: the politically inconvenient drivers of the fertility crisis may be
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: the more comfortable option, but it could undermine female freedoms
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: in the long run.
- 1:37:53Speaker 2: See see what I'm saying. They're forcing it. There's a
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: forced dichotomy here.
- 1:37:59Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 1:38:01Speaker 2: They're trying to say that you got to abandon the
- 1:38:03Speaker 2: things that people find valuable, and throughout history this is
- 1:38:06Speaker 2: what they've found valuable. They want to make sure that
- 1:38:08Speaker 2: their daughters have material resources. I mean, you look at
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: Florence that they voted to like legislate this that men
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: had to if they had a daughter, that they had
- 1:38:17Speaker 2: to pay into a pension fund for her, not for
- 1:38:20Speaker 2: their sons, just their daughters. You know, this is a
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: this is a thing throughout all of human history and
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: right back to Sumer taking care of the orphans and
- 1:38:28Speaker 2: the dowries of poor poor girls. Right. So they're basically
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: saying that everybody, if we want to reproduce, we have
- 1:38:38Speaker 2: to disavow the things that everybody agrees are good. Yeah,
- 1:38:49Speaker 2: we have to disavow being a human in order to
- 1:38:51Speaker 2: reproduce as humans, we have to disavow our humanity. Yeah,
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: that's that's a false dichotomy right there.
- 1:39:02Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right. Using the gender inequality Index from
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: the Human Development Report and national fertility rates from World
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: Population Prospects United Nations, we found a very strong correlation
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: between gender equality and low fertility. The more gender equal
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: to nation is, the lower its fertility rate tends to
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: be accelerating the pace of its demographic collapse. Such a
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: high association needs to be considered in earnest, even if
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: it's uncomfortable. So they're like, you know, what can we
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: talk about this. I mean it could it's kind of
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: like potentially destroying everything, but can we please it's the
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: gender inequality index. So I guess like down here you
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: have like the lowest reproduction down to the bottom left.
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: It's like what, maybe I gotta see where's South Korea?
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: That's how that's like my north star. Where's South Korea?
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: They don't have South Korea here? I don't see it
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: one What where one point?
- 1:40:14Speaker 2: South Korea is at one? Oh?
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: Yeah, there it is South Korea down here with the Netherlands. Yeah,
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: so these places are the low end Canada, Italy, Singapore,
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: South Korea. You know, even Israel made the list down here,
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: United Kingdom, New Zealand, Japan that Japan is doing very poorly,
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: to China, Poland, Malta. And then you go up here
- 1:40:38Speaker 1: where it's higher, you got like the Congo, Chad, Niger, Somalia, Maali, Afghanistan.
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: I mean a lot of this has to do with
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: like having enough kids because like they might die off
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: or something, so you need to like it's like our
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: our strategy, like our reproductive strategy as opposed to a
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: arm sorry, yeah, are as a opposed to the other one.
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: But okay, and then yeah, go ahead.
- 1:41:06Speaker 2: I'm sorry, no, no, finish, finish, sorry no, no, no.
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: I'm just saying this is the chart. I don't want
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: to spend too much time on this, but like that's
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: basically the that's what it is. But even these places
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: are are changing anyways, like we said earlier, so they're
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: trending down All the.
- 1:41:25Speaker 2: Sub Saharan African countries are trending downwards. Everywhere everywhere has
- 1:41:30Speaker 2: the same problem. And incidentally, we have NGOs and exporting
- 1:41:37Speaker 2: feminism to all of those places. But also it might
- 1:41:43Speaker 2: it might also be an effect of again like the
- 1:41:47Speaker 2: endocurrent architecture, so the lack of the one a cross
- 1:41:51Speaker 2: activation in women as things get more comfortable, and it
- 1:41:56Speaker 2: might be a chicken of the egg. Whether or not
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: feminism is an effect or exacerbates that, who knows. Maybe
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: it's even a form of correction. Since the environment is
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: so safe. They try to pretend men are as dangerous
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: as bearers in order to get that stress up to activate.
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: But it seems a bit self defeating, all right, So
- 1:42:21Speaker 2: the paper's historical framing is wrong on the location of
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: consent being important to pair bonding. It places free market
- 1:42:32Speaker 2: choice at the Second sexual Revolution seventeen fifty, with individual
- 1:42:36Speaker 2: partner selection enabled by wage labor and mobility and frames.
- 1:42:40Speaker 2: The third nineteen sixty eight is when it became fully autonomous.
- 1:42:44Speaker 2: The medieval Church established the principal censuries centuries earlier. The
- 1:42:48Speaker 2: sacramental theology of marriage held that the couple confects the
- 1:42:52Speaker 2: bond the two parties. Mutual consent is the sacrament, not
- 1:42:55Speaker 2: the family's arrangement, not the lord's permission, not the priest's blessing,
- 1:42:59Speaker 2: the couple's free consent. The priest is a witness, not
- 1:43:03Speaker 2: a maker. This is the Church's position from the twelfth century.
- 1:43:07Speaker 2: The same periods the paper identifies the first sexual revolutions
- 1:43:10Speaker 2: institution of lifelong monogamy. So their first sexual revolution, which
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: they characterize as arranged marriage but individual mate preference is
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: more important, actually contained the theological foundations for free mate choice. Now,
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: this doesn't mean that in like the twelfth century, they
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: weren't also practicing dowry. In fact, they probably were. The
- 1:43:31Speaker 2: Church was simultaneously imposing lifelong monogamy and asserting that the
- 1:43:35Speaker 2: bond requires the freak incent of both parties. Okay, if
- 1:43:42Speaker 2: you look at the Song of Solomon, which is in
- 1:43:44Speaker 2: the valuable. I did an analysis on this. It sort
- 1:43:47Speaker 2: of presents the pair bond is prior to institutional sanction.
- 1:43:51Speaker 2: The couple is confecting the bond. So they are the
- 1:43:53Speaker 2: ones that are like the bond is happening to and
- 1:43:58Speaker 2: they are the ones whose recognition of the bond is
- 1:44:00Speaker 2: what's most important. So the marriage the bond is something
- 1:44:05Speaker 2: that sort of like comes through God in the church,
- 1:44:09Speaker 2: and then the church ratifies it. Right, It doesn't create it.
- 1:44:15Speaker 2: The institution recognizes it, doesn't create it. The paper's errors
- 1:44:21Speaker 2: and treating free market make choice as a product of
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: economic modernization. The theological infrastructure was medieval. What changed in
- 1:44:29Speaker 2: seventeen fifty wasn't the principle, It was the practical ability
- 1:44:33Speaker 2: to exercise it without family economic consequences. So they're taking
- 1:44:38Speaker 2: this and they're saying, oh, well, this is the first
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: time you were divorced from requiring an extended family to
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: produce children, so you no longer needed to at least
- 1:44:47Speaker 2: get their approval or their consent right to appropriate their
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: resources for your reproductive projects. What changed, and what changed
- 1:45:01Speaker 2: in nineteen sixty eight was an autonomy. It was contraception
- 1:45:05Speaker 2: severing the consequences of exercising it. The distinction matters because
- 1:45:09Speaker 2: the paper's framework assumes free mate choice is the novel,
- 1:45:13Speaker 2: and therefore is novel, and therefore psycho psychology hasn't adapted
- 1:45:17Speaker 2: to it. The Church's positions suggest humans have been exercising
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: consent based mate choice within institutional structures for eight hundred years.
- 1:45:27Speaker 2: The novelty isn't choice, it's consequence free choice, right. But
- 1:45:32Speaker 2: the other thing is that this is probably even older
- 1:45:34Speaker 2: than the Church, because because Romans also had something similar,
- 1:45:40Speaker 2: like they would have dances where young people would get
- 1:45:44Speaker 2: to know each other so very it was like in
- 1:45:47Speaker 2: some ways it was a similar cultural landscape. And yes,
- 1:45:52Speaker 2: elite people always controlled the reproduction of their children because
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: it was all about resources and lineage and property and
- 1:46:03Speaker 2: you know, family, the benefit of the family. But for
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: the average person, they had a lot more freedom of
- 1:46:11Speaker 2: choosing who they were partnered with. And that's been the
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: case for eight hundred years. This paper isn't recognizing historical
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: reality in order to assert that somehow women being able
- 1:46:23Speaker 2: to choose their partners is some new thing that happened
- 1:46:26Speaker 2: in the last fifty years, fifty sixty years. No and
- 1:46:35Speaker 2: they're doing it to force the false dichotomy, which is, oh, well,
- 1:46:40Speaker 2: if you want the human race to continue, you're just
- 1:46:43Speaker 2: going to have to take away women's consent. Do you
- 1:46:46Speaker 2: want to do that? And nobody's going to sign on
- 1:46:49Speaker 2: to that. They are shaping the solution space by forcing
- 1:46:56Speaker 2: this dichotomy, and they're shaping the solution space to the
- 1:47:00Speaker 2: point where it no longer includes the solution. Okay, continue, Brian, all.
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: Right, I got a super chowl from Richard Bierre here.
- 1:47:10Speaker 1: He gives us five dollars and says, isn't it also
- 1:47:13Speaker 1: a factor that an industryalized technological nations that around ten
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: percent of the population is producing the majority of the
- 1:47:20Speaker 1: goods and services for everyone else. Let's not overlook the
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: glamorization of the Sex and the City lifestyle and how
- 1:47:27Speaker 1: Cosmopolitan magazine also promoted the single woman lifestyle with a
- 1:47:31Speaker 1: writer's room staff with married women who had families at home. Yeah,
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: that's all feminist stuff. Like Sex and the City. That's feminist, bro, Cosmo,
- 1:47:39Speaker 1: all those women's magazines, very much so. But okay, the industrialization,
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: I don't know, Like, Alison, do you want to take that? Uh?
- 1:47:49Speaker 2: Yeah, I did that's gonna be a large digression. Let's
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: keep going.
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna keep going. We got about ten minutes,
- 1:47:58Speaker 1: so all right. On the analysis that follows, we posit
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: that a further individualization of reproduction could be an effective
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: means for solving the fertility crisis. If we are unlikely
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: to sufficiently decrease I'm sorry, if we're unlikely to sufficiently
- 1:48:15Speaker 1: increase pair bonding rates, policymakers should consider other means for
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: helping women have the number of children that they themselves
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: say they want.
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: Use this is what they just did. Yes, yes, yo, guys.
- 1:48:29Speaker 2: In order to increase pair bonding, we would have to
- 1:48:32Speaker 2: take away women's women's reproductive freedom. We'd have to take
- 1:48:36Speaker 2: away women's right to consent, we'd have to rape women,
- 1:48:40Speaker 2: and we'd also have to take away their ability to
- 1:48:42Speaker 2: get education and work.
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, but it's like the number that they
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: themselves want though, so I think you know that this
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: is consent kind of.
- 1:48:55Speaker 2: No. But it's the thing is that that the false
- 1:48:57Speaker 2: dichotomy is that any of these things bear on the raid.
- 1:49:01Speaker 2: They don't. The Church gave individual couples, including women, that
- 1:49:08Speaker 2: they made it a sacrament that the woman consent to
- 1:49:10Speaker 2: marriage like a precondition for the Church to actually recognize
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: the marriage. Since the twelve hundreds and while before, incidentally,
- 1:49:20Speaker 2: women have worked and had property, especially in Roman law jurisdictions.
- 1:49:26Speaker 2: Gaelic law is something completely different. But again, the French
- 1:49:29Speaker 2: are weird. We don't need to discuss them, you know.
- 1:49:32Speaker 2: So women have always had property in Roman law, they
- 1:49:36Speaker 2: inherited with equally to their their brothers. Right. And in
- 1:49:40Speaker 2: those jurisdictions where men inherit more, there are social expectations
- 1:49:44Speaker 2: that they provide for the women in their life, not
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: just their their their wife, but also their widowed mother,
- 1:49:52Speaker 2: their maiden on a maiden sisters, like their spinster sisters. Right.
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: So a man who you had any kind of inheritance
- 1:50:01Speaker 2: or income would be expected to be taken care of
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: a whole web of women. Right. So again, women have
- 1:50:10Speaker 2: access to material resources throughout all of human history, and
- 1:50:14Speaker 2: they've also had access to education. So it is a
- 1:50:17Speaker 2: complete false dichotomy to present these are the three things
- 1:50:20Speaker 2: that you have to destroy in order to create pair bonding.
- 1:50:23Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying. That's what they've done, and
- 1:50:26Speaker 2: I'm saying that they are closing off the solution space
- 1:50:29Speaker 2: with this false dichotomy, it's like, yeah, these are irrelevant again.
- 1:50:34Speaker 2: Since the twelve hundreds, women have had free choice, they've
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: had education, like verifiably and well before then most likely
- 1:50:42Speaker 2: as well, they've had free choice, they've had free education,
- 1:50:45Speaker 2: or they've had the ability to get educated. They've had
- 1:50:48Speaker 2: the ability to command resources right and build up their
- 1:50:53Speaker 2: own resource base. That's where Dowries came from. Okay, and
- 1:50:59Speaker 2: they still got they still pair bonded and had children,
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: and there was substantial fertility, and they've had all of that,
- 1:51:05Speaker 2: including up until nineteen sixty eight. So everything that they're
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: saying that causes women not to pair bond and not
- 1:51:15Speaker 2: to have children is a false dichotomy. It has nothing
- 1:51:18Speaker 2: to do with the issue. All it's doing is constraining
- 1:51:22Speaker 2: the solution space and making it so that only their
- 1:51:26Speaker 2: solution seems viable because they're forcing everybody to either acknowledge
- 1:51:30Speaker 2: that we have to do something nobody wants to do,
- 1:51:32Speaker 2: which is impoverished women, which is take away their educational opportunities,
- 1:51:36Speaker 2: which has essentially removed their right to consent right, and
- 1:51:42Speaker 2: very few people are going to sign on to that, Okay,
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: And that's the only way forward to increase fertility, and
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: that is a complete bald faced lie. And then they
- 1:51:53Speaker 2: offer their solution, which is what more communism.
- 1:51:59Speaker 1: Yeah, of course, a surprise, which is essentially just making
- 1:52:04Speaker 1: men pay into the system to raise their kids for
- 1:52:07Speaker 1: them and raise them poorly by the.
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: Way, Yes, yes, exactly. And they're forcing this solution space
- 1:52:21Speaker 2: by framing what the act where the actual infertility is
- 1:52:25Speaker 2: coming from, and it isn't coming from there. Okay, Like, honestly, guys,
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: when women had free choice, when they had their own
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: material goods, and if you're waiting till your late twenties,
- 1:52:40Speaker 2: you probably have more skills, more education, and more physical
- 1:52:44Speaker 2: resources as a woman. Yeah. And and they had their
- 1:52:49Speaker 2: own education, right, they had all of that. They still
- 1:52:53Speaker 2: chose to get a man and have a relationship with him.
- 1:53:00Speaker 2: Women don't need to be in a situation of depredation
- 1:53:05Speaker 2: to want a man. This is the assumption that feminists make,
- 1:53:11Speaker 2: and the assumption that these people make, and they do
- 1:53:14Speaker 2: it to justify feminism, and they do it to justify communism.
- 1:53:20Speaker 2: That's not exactly what they're doing right here, Okay.
- 1:53:27Speaker 1: Okay, So I got a super chat from Senior sticks
- 1:53:32Speaker 1: for two dollars. Thank you, Senior sticks and says human
- 1:53:34Speaker 1: matchmaking is an occupation for a reason. All right, thank you.
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: All right. So where was I based on? Oh yeah, no, no,
- 1:53:45Speaker 1: it's rare. This would entail offering women the resources necessary
- 1:53:48Speaker 1: for them to conclude that having children alone is a
- 1:53:52Speaker 1: better alternative than remaining childless. Today, such large resource transfers
- 1:53:56Speaker 1: are perhaps politically and fiscally unfeasible, but nations should consider
- 1:54:01Speaker 1: limited reproductive policy experiments to find out what social and
- 1:54:05Speaker 1: economic resources are required to motivate sufficient individualistic reproduction in
- 1:54:11Speaker 1: our post automation future, perhaps as early as by twenty forty.
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: Insights from these pilot projects could inform national policies with
- 1:54:21Speaker 1: the potential to substantially increase fertility. So we're going to
- 1:54:24Speaker 1: become cyborgs, guys, so that women can stay like super liberated.
- 1:54:31Speaker 2: And ironically it's not super liberated because they always like,
- 1:54:37Speaker 2: this is the thing. This isn't the false dichotomy that
- 1:54:39Speaker 2: I'm talking about. It was that the issue is not
- 1:54:44Speaker 2: female liberation or non liberation. The issue is that we
- 1:54:49Speaker 2: have an entire ideology that claims that women lose everything
- 1:54:55Speaker 2: if they get in a relationship with the man, and
- 1:54:57Speaker 2: there are a lot of women who believe it. Like it.
- 1:55:01Speaker 2: You you put women in a situation where they have
- 1:55:07Speaker 2: I don't even think there's this doesn't even happen in
- 1:55:10Speaker 2: the cultures with the cousin marriage, right this okay? So
- 1:55:14Speaker 2: you you you take away everybody's choice. You take away
- 1:55:17Speaker 2: the men's choice too. So you know you want to
- 1:55:21Speaker 2: marry your your your three hundred pounds, you to to
- 1:55:25Speaker 2: brow cousin. That's gonna be your choice, and it's gonna
- 1:55:30Speaker 2: be made for you. You can't choose someone you desire.
- 1:55:33Speaker 2: It's just basically someone in the klan who's chosen for you.
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: All right, everybody's everything is selected for you know, autonomous. Well,
- 1:55:44Speaker 2: that's not gonna change the fertility problem, because India has
- 1:55:47Speaker 2: a fertility problem. Like all of the Middle East that
- 1:55:54Speaker 2: practices this also has the fertility problem. And you know what,
- 1:55:58Speaker 2: India also has a feminism problem. You know what the
- 1:56:01Speaker 2: Middle East has. I know this is going to shock people.
- 1:56:04Speaker 2: A feminism problem. Do you know what? Northern Europeans have
- 1:56:09Speaker 2: a feminism problem. And if you really want to think
- 1:56:15Speaker 2: that that that liberation and economic opportunity and education stops
- 1:56:21Speaker 2: women from having para bonds and having children. Then you
- 1:56:24Speaker 2: have to argue with medieval Europe, Northern your medieval northern Europe,
- 1:56:29Speaker 2: you have to argue with not the elite Romans, but
- 1:56:33Speaker 2: just the mass of Romans. Like one of the things
- 1:56:36Speaker 2: that Rome did is it reproduced its armies. That's why
- 1:56:40Speaker 2: in many ways it was very militarily powerful. And that
- 1:56:44Speaker 2: was because its middle to like lower class, was highly reproductive.
- 1:56:50Speaker 2: It's equestrian class, I think was too for a while, right,
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: so and and again, in these societies, women did have
- 1:57:00Speaker 2: the ability to acquire resources, they did have the ability
- 1:57:03Speaker 2: to be educated, they did have the ability to have
- 1:57:06Speaker 2: their own free choice. This isn't what killed them. What
- 1:57:10Speaker 2: killed them was very explicitly what the Jews pointed out
- 1:57:15Speaker 2: who lived through the fall of the Bronze Age, which
- 1:57:18Speaker 2: was women, saying that human pair bonding like men and
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: women getting together isn't a communal project, isn't like a
- 1:57:32Speaker 2: cooperative complementarian project. It is in fact women being subordinated
- 1:57:38Speaker 2: to men. That's the lilith energy that I talk about.
- 1:57:43Speaker 2: She turned sacred act into a status contest, and the
- 1:57:49Speaker 2: Jews recorded that as the civilization failure mode, and we
- 1:57:55Speaker 2: are living it. So I mean, like I said, liberation,
- 1:58:02Speaker 2: what do you mean by women's liberation? What does anybody
- 1:58:06Speaker 2: mean by women's liberation? Like feminists mean that if you
- 1:58:11Speaker 2: oppose feminism, you oppose everything good going to women.
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:58:17Speaker 2: And I'm like, yeah, I think that you need to
- 1:58:19Speaker 2: step out of that false dichotomy. And here they're saying,
- 1:58:23Speaker 2: if you don't accept more government intervention stealing from men
- 1:58:29Speaker 2: to give to women. But also, you know about an
- 1:58:32Speaker 2: eighty percent cut to the bureaucrats who adjudicate all of
- 1:58:37Speaker 2: these you know a little bit to the academics who
- 1:58:42Speaker 2: justify it. The bureaucrats who manage it. Gotta make sure
- 1:58:46Speaker 2: they get their cut in this transfer, and then whatever's
- 1:58:50Speaker 2: left over will go to the women and maybe they'll
- 1:58:52Speaker 2: have a they'll say they have more babies. They won't
- 1:58:56Speaker 2: actually have more babies. But like, this is ridiculous, and
- 1:59:02Speaker 2: it's all around this rhetoric around female liberation and the idea.
- 1:59:09Speaker 2: The fundamental idea here is not that women are being
- 1:59:12Speaker 2: liberated to have jobs or education, or make choices in
- 1:59:17Speaker 2: their reproductive lives or choices about their partners, because they've
- 1:59:20Speaker 2: always had that for a long time, especially in the West.
- 1:59:24Speaker 2: The idea is that women are being liberated from being
- 1:59:26Speaker 2: oppressed by men in marriage. They're being liberated from marriage
- 1:59:35Speaker 2: as an oppressive institution. That's what they mean. Everything else
- 1:59:41Speaker 2: is something that's happened in history. So what they really
- 1:59:44Speaker 2: mean by liberation is, I don't know. Women no longer
- 1:59:49Speaker 2: have to love men, even though loving men is like
- 1:59:53Speaker 2: a trillion dollar industry for women, Like the simulation of
- 1:59:56Speaker 2: being loved by a man, and loving a man is
- 1:59:59Speaker 2: women paid a trillion dollars to get it every year. Yeah,
- 2:00:06Speaker 2: so women are being liberated by the thing they spend
- 2:00:10Speaker 2: most on to get. I can't I can't even give
- 2:00:16Speaker 2: you an analogy for that. But it's so ridiculous. All right,
- 2:00:19Speaker 2: do you want to finish up?
- 2:00:21Speaker 1: Well? What would just read this last paragraph?
- 2:00:24Speaker 2: Sure, we'll stop there.
- 2:00:27Speaker 1: Okay, let me just double check to make sure there's
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: no super chats or anything. All right. Such financial transfers, however,
- 2:00:34Speaker 1: would further reduce men's utility to women and thus the
- 2:00:37Speaker 1: main value of some groups of men, likely exacerbating male marginalization. Still,
- 2:00:43Speaker 1: the existential stakes of the fertility crisis could justify such
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: drastic measures. Moreover, artificial womb technology might be available as
- 2:00:51Speaker 1: early as in the twenty forties, which could result in
- 2:00:54Speaker 1: greater reproductive equality between the sexes. The following investigation leads
- 2:00:59Speaker 1: us to conclude that the next step in human mating
- 2:01:01Speaker 1: may entail a greater individualization of reproduction, and that gender equal,
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: low fertility nation should prepare for this future as soon
- 2:01:09Speaker 1: as possible.
- 2:01:10Speaker 2: Okay, you know, and the wink in the in the
- 2:01:13Speaker 2: nod is that, oh man, we're gonna create the lesbian
- 2:01:16Speaker 2: feminist utopia where men aren't even and then we're gonna
- 2:01:21Speaker 2: have AI and robots and we're gonna we're gonna make
- 2:01:23Speaker 2: gate to women's country and there'll be no men in Ah.
- 2:01:28Speaker 2: Like that's that's the the freaking that's the sub attacks here.
- 2:01:31Speaker 2: You know what's actually gonna happen. If they get artificial
- 2:01:35Speaker 2: womb technology, you're gonna have the Freemason or not the Freemason,
- 2:01:40Speaker 2: the Knights templar system. You're gonna have coalitions of men
- 2:01:44Speaker 2: raising children and I don't mean gay men, and they're
- 2:01:48Speaker 2: gonna be raising children that are so freaking superior to
- 2:01:51Speaker 2: the female, like the single mother children, that you're basically
- 2:01:54Speaker 2: gonna construct a caste system. They're gonna be male raised
- 2:01:58Speaker 2: children who will do everything, rule everything, and then there
- 2:02:03Speaker 2: will be female raised children who fill the prisons. I
- 2:02:08Speaker 2: guess yeah, and they don't have to be gay, like
- 2:02:13Speaker 2: these guys don't have to be gay. The Knight's Templar
- 2:02:16Speaker 2: they raised orphans and uh, and it was just a
- 2:02:22Speaker 2: coalition of men raising children, right, that's that is there
- 2:02:28Speaker 2: is historical precedent for that. You have like monks raising
- 2:02:32Speaker 2: familings and stuff like that. There's plenty of historical precedent
- 2:02:37Speaker 2: for male coalitions raising children. And that's exactly what's gonna happen.
- 2:02:42Speaker 2: You're gonna have super families, male coalitional superfamilies raising highly
- 2:02:49Speaker 2: socially adroit children, like with high degrees of skills, and
- 2:02:56Speaker 2: then you're gonna be you're gonna be setting those kids
- 2:02:58Speaker 2: up up with competition with the single other kids they're
- 2:03:01Speaker 2: gonna be They're gonna be a permanent underclass. And it's
- 2:03:08Speaker 2: not even one would even have to be in law.
- 2:03:10Speaker 2: They're just gonna be a permanent underclass because of emotional dysregulation,
- 2:03:14Speaker 2: because of criminality, because of poor social skills, because of
- 2:03:20Speaker 2: poor ability to acquire skills or work within systems, complex systems.
- 2:03:28Speaker 2: They're gonna be an underclass because they are literally inferior.
- 2:03:32Speaker 2: They're inferior products. And nobody in this this ridiculous article
- 2:03:38Speaker 2: is considering the fact that men raise children better. They're
- 2:03:43Speaker 2: gonna be like, well, liberate, yeah, waink nudge, men will
- 2:03:46Speaker 2: be liberated from women in raising children. Well, I don't
- 2:03:53Speaker 2: know if that's a society we really want, though. I'm
- 2:03:58Speaker 2: just saying this because I think that this is not
- 2:03:59Speaker 2: gonna go This is not going to play out the
- 2:04:02Speaker 2: way their smug assumptions suggest it's going to play out
- 2:04:06Speaker 2: if they actually manage it, I don't think it's gonna
- 2:04:11Speaker 2: I don't think this is gonna play out the way
- 2:04:13Speaker 2: you think it is. All right, ok, right, well, yeah,
- 2:04:19Speaker 2: do you have any anything to add to that?
- 2:04:22Speaker 1: No, I think you No, No, I think you covered
- 2:04:25Speaker 1: everything pretty well.
- 2:04:29Speaker 2: Or we could just try to get men and women
- 2:04:34Speaker 2: back together again, could try that. Yeah, it's a possibility.
- 2:04:41Speaker 2: I mean, the church probably won out because it just
- 2:04:44Speaker 2: gave men and women a better relationship system than what
- 2:04:49Speaker 2: was before. Like that, I honestly like it. There is
- 2:04:52Speaker 2: a big gap in the scholarship, which is how did
- 2:04:56Speaker 2: the church courtship plus individual consent system plus older like, no,
- 2:05:05Speaker 2: don't marry your cousin. How did this actually displace the
- 2:05:09Speaker 2: previous system of cousin marriage and elder kin arranging everything?
- 2:05:14Speaker 2: How did it displace it? There's a big gap in
- 2:05:16Speaker 2: the scholarship. So that's where my hypothesis comes in. Is
- 2:05:19Speaker 2: they out competed it on the free marketplace of romantic love.
- 2:05:23Speaker 2: And I know that that romantic love is verboten now,
- 2:05:27Speaker 2: but it's not the same kind as simpory because both
- 2:05:32Speaker 2: parties would be bringing in resources, both parties would be
- 2:05:34Speaker 2: expected to live up to ethical standards, be chased, disciplined,
- 2:05:40Speaker 2: et cetera. It's a bit different than what we see
- 2:05:42Speaker 2: in modern sympathy. But they out competed older systems because
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: they gave a better product in terms of relationships. So
- 2:05:52Speaker 2: maybe what we could do today is sort of take
- 2:05:56Speaker 2: a page from that book, get a better product in
- 2:06:02Speaker 2: terms of in terms of relationships and relationship formation. Hell,
- 2:06:06Speaker 2: maybe we could go back to the system that actually worked.
- 2:06:10Speaker 2: It's a thought. Anyway, Did you want to add anything
- 2:06:15Speaker 2: that to that, Brian, because I can all right if
- 2:06:20Speaker 2: you want to send a message anytime after the show's over,
- 2:06:22Speaker 2: looks like we're gonna be talking about this for a while.
- 2:06:25Speaker 1: Yeah, we can do a follow up and do the
- 2:06:27Speaker 1: rest of it.
- 2:06:28Speaker 2: Yeah, if we even it might take quite a few
- 2:06:30Speaker 2: follow ups. But if you want to send a message
- 2:06:33Speaker 2: at any time after the show is over, you can
- 2:06:35Speaker 2: do so it feedbadger dot com slash just the tip.
- 2:06:37Speaker 2: It is working now, great, indoors, you can send your message.
- 2:06:42Speaker 2: Let me just double check to see. I'll poke the
- 2:06:44Speaker 2: balls to see if there's anybody's anybody's messages in the
- 2:06:49Speaker 2: in the back, pok poking voles as we speak, pokey pokey, pokey. Okay, Nope,
- 2:07:02Speaker 2: looks like we've got both of them. So if you
- 2:07:05Speaker 2: want to send your message, okay, yes, okay, So, if
- 2:07:12Speaker 2: you want to send your message, feed thebadger dot com
- 2:07:14Speaker 2: slash just the tip and we will address it. And
- 2:07:18Speaker 2: the next time we address this topic, which will probably
- 2:07:21Speaker 2: be pretty soon, so once again, feed the badger dot
- 2:07:24Speaker 2: com slash just the tip. If you want more information
- 2:07:26Speaker 2: about the things that I talk about, specifically, like the
- 2:07:29Speaker 2: endocrine framework, sometimes I bring up cognitive modalities that kind
- 2:07:32Speaker 2: of stuff. Badgination dot online and come and join us
- 2:07:37Speaker 2: in the discord and you can ask me questions and
- 2:07:40Speaker 2: I put up stuff that sort of elaborates on all
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: of my analyses. So once again, that's badgination dot on
- 2:07:47Speaker 2: the line and feed the badger dot com slash just
- 2:07:49Speaker 2: the tip for those those tips. I can see that
- 2:07:52Speaker 2: Koran Strong is sending me a message, but he better
- 2:07:55Speaker 2: do it quickly because we are leaving. We are leaving, sir.
- 2:07:59Speaker 2: You've got like maybe a minute to finish your message.
- 2:08:02Speaker 2: I would not suggest making it much longer. I could
- 2:08:06Speaker 2: see him typing, so I don't know. Yeah, so the
- 2:08:14Speaker 2: next section is going to be long and short term
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: mating strategies. Yeah, and I look forward to seeing how
- 2:08:22Speaker 2: they completely distort that into a false dichotomy that either
- 2:08:28Speaker 2: like completely omits the effect of feminism. That's the big
- 2:08:31Speaker 2: thing I noticed throughout all of this. We go through
- 2:08:34Speaker 2: everything like, oh, well maybe gen Z doesn't know how
- 2:08:36Speaker 2: to flirt, but we don't ever put the whole ideology
- 2:08:41Speaker 2: that made heterosexuality radioactive. We never consider that to be
- 2:08:45Speaker 2: a source of the problem. We just skip over and
- 2:08:48Speaker 2: then we land on. Of course, the solution is more communism,
- 2:08:51Speaker 2: more government intervention, which you know that'll be good for
- 2:08:57Speaker 2: the divorce lawyers, the bureaucract the feminists and then eventually
- 2:09:03Speaker 2: maybe women will get a few bucks and and there
- 2:09:10Speaker 2: you go. The uh the life cycle justifies itself. Okay,
- 2:09:16Speaker 2: all right, I can't wait anymore. Sorry, courn Strong. Let's go,
- 2:09:19Speaker 2: Brian take it away.
