Yes, I do. Because it happens to many people and they stay happily married. Of course, they don't have the same view of relationships as many of you do so maybe that's why.

Right.

This movement is quite disturbing. Combined with other philosophies like fundamentalist religiosity (of any flavor) and far-right conservatism, I worry about the future of true egalitarianism.

I messaged this to another poster yesterday.

Looks like my concerns were valid.

I like men who are funny, laid back, good conversationalists. That's what is attractive to me.

In an earlier time, survival of the people (tribe) depended on increasing the number of children born to the people of the tribe. In other words, there was a valid concern for the 'common good' of the people, along with the individual's desire to not only have sex but to have children.

Women then & women now, seek out healthy mates with which to raise children. (also, the whole 'it takes a village' concept was more of a 'thing') Attractiveness for both men & women was more often measured by the 'signs of health' present in prospective mates. It is thought that when a baby is first born, there is a tendency for the child to favor the Father in the way it looks. This may or may not change over time however there is an evolutionary reason for this tendency. There was no question about the Child's parentage on the Mother's side (obviously they gave birth) although the Father was sometimes a variable. The evolutionary aspect involved here is that the Father would be more ensured of his part in the Child if it looked like him. The idea is that they would be more likely to take a more active role if the Child appeared to be his own. Survival of the children ensured survival of the people.

In the present day of course things are different. Even so, how many women or people in general would view someone like fr'instance, Martin Shkreli, as healthy? Attractive? Et cetera. Some human characteristics, traits, etc. are still with us even though they may not necessarily provide evolutionary advantages.

That is a trait of narcissists. They feel deserving of the best in life, even if they have nothing to offer in return.


Incels want the best women out there. The kind of women who usually wind up married to more successful, better looking men. Incels cannot accept this fact, nor can they accept mating with a woman who is more in their own league. Incels are immature, narcissistic men. They have banded together on the internet and screamed at the world with their collective voice. Except nobody feels sorry for them, and I certainly don't either.

Let me make this easy for you in terms you can understand.


IF one is a 6 (male OR female) ~ it is HIGHLY UNLIKELY that you are going to mate and/or marry a 10.


INCELS either need to make peace with what IS or be content remaining celibate.


IF you simply are not attracted to anyone on your own attractiveness level - then you may live a lonely life.


It is THAT simple.


We can whine about it; create websites and internet groups about it; or adjust our expectations.


It is what it is and nothing can change it.

Funny is not a passive virtue , nor is a good conversationalist. They are tools of social dominance.

Anything else?

So? I don't care if my husband looks. Attractive people get looks. der.

People in good solid marriages are monogamous and secure.

It is normal that looks change throughout life but incels and MGTOWS cannot tolerate normal aging in women. They think women "hit the wall" at 25 or 30 years of age. They seem to be afflicted with hebephilia and prefer teens or women who look like teens.
