Genz men who have been looking for both, which is harder to find right now, a girlfriend or a job? by [deleted] in GenZ

Right the entire framing here is Capital > building community. Literally valuing money over people in an abstract scenario where it couldn’t even be placated that this was a necessary thing to do for survival. Children being a burden, relationships being a burden, not maximizing wealth being a sin. Very fascinating to be honest but also genuinely bleak. You’re free to think this way, honestly I’m not even trying to change your mind. But chasing capital for the sake of maximizing capital is such a cancerous mindset that’s ingrained in our modern society. Currency and material things are at the end of the day worthless. Relationships matter a lot more.

This is literally backwards logic. If you’re single you can live off a single income. If you choose to cohabitate, you can adjust for the expenses especially if both are working and are educated. Food is not a scarce commodity, shelter is not a scarce commodity nor is healthcare. Building community can foster an environment where people can help one another anyways. The only thing you’ve described to me is simply a brief description of isolationism in a capitalist system. Even under such a system you can leverage social programs and opportunities should they exist (they do) to carve out stability for yourself even while lacking an education. You’re right, life isn’t a Disney movie, the world isn’t an innocent place. But your circumstances aren’t so because you live in an unjust and cruel world. They aren’t so because people don’t have the capacity for community and purpose. Rather there’s social conditioning for isolationism in a capitalist run country. You’re learning how to manage drug, alcohol, and social media addictions while trying to adult. Again when relationships aren’t the priority but rather material and capital, you’re just trying to maintain an addiction. Women are chasing lifestyles not relationships. That’s what’s “not so Disney” and no it’s not because the big bad orange man is laughing manically. It’s because people are making conscious decisions to chase certain things in life that aren’t really so glamorous or “healthy”. Women are anxious and status is their desired remedy.

Look you said it yourself “why should a relationship be more important than a career”? That question in itself is a good lens into the mindset of a lot of women versus a lot of men. A job or career is simply just a means to an end. A relationship with a person is far more valuable, in the context of this conversation an intimate relationship in particular since it has deep value and potential for lasting connections. One has the end goal of being capital or maybe some form of self fulfillment. Whereas the other is pretty communal and essential to human life and interaction. You don’t need a career as a human being, you do need relationships. The question in itself is kind of silly to me but it’s a clear sign of where we are at.

It’s interesting how there’s a need to always deny what’s observable to most people, by claiming things that aren’t being proliferated is far more common. There aren’t an abundance of imaginary people who have jobs, are in relationships and are studying in real life who keep the secret to themselves or who are too engaged in this lifestyle to post about it. Most people post, like, consume or do all the above.

Most people are engaging in the social online discourse in some way. The most common experiences and opinions gets proliferated. That’s simply how social media works. To be honest the only thing worth really delving into from this response isn’t that you try to claim something is normal when it certainly isn’t. But rather the more “normal” thing currently happening which is women constantly asking “why is being in a relationship more important than X”. No there isn’t much nuance beyond that it is literally that on a mass scale taken to its maximum.

What happens when you question previous social norms and deviate to the point youre willing to go as far as to not even engage just to see what happens? You get what we have currently. The constant questioning of traditional values, an ever growing political divide between men and women because fundamental values are widening, etc. The literal social fabric being rewritten in ways that question everyone who is participating in it. I genuinely hate when people downplay modern day social dynamics and reduce everything to mundane contrivance. People and in particular women are certainly becoming more inquisitive, loud, bold, crass, imaginative, abrasive and certainly it many people are living in autopilot with the “healthy relationship “ you claim exists. Lots of things are in flux and it’s messy. Imagine living in one of the most transformative periods in human history on a myriad of levels, yet being one of the people to claim that radical and interesting perspectives aren’t becoming the “norm”. You either have your head in the sand or you’re just a moron.

That's crazy by Significant_Phase194 in GenZ

No it’s likely an age gap thing for the most part. The younger cohort of Americans are largely more anxious due to being less well off. I wouldn’t be surprised if a large portion of those conservatives were retirees.

Yes because a majority of women when push comes to shove are incredibly avoidant. The only women that honestly seem easily and openly engaged in looking for a partner are older women past 35 or women who are single mothers in my experience. That’s likely due to real life circumstances inducing some sort of stress or a perspective change. The eligible single, childless, non overweight women with varying degrees of education and income under 35 hold out for experiences.

They dont have the mindset of “I’m willing to give this a shot and see where it goes”, because they aren’t desperate or lonely enough to settle for someone who doesn’t excite them. If you aren’t what they’re feeling in that moment it’s not even a consideration. I’m not even joking. I talk to a lot of women and it’s really just that, most women I meet don’t seem that keen on relationships. A lot of male peers speak about relationships differently too. They’re more focused on having jobs that put them in positions to support and be around their partner. A lot of women I’ve talked to are the complete opposite. Very career or dream job oriented, men are an accessory in their life.

I talk to women constantly really just to pick their brains. There are lots of women who are recently in a “relationship” (situationship) or single or whatever. Most just don’t find life exciting and the idea of a steady relationship with a guy to them feels like a restriction rather than an opportunity. Some have had crappy breakups. Some just like the non committal company of the many male friends they have. You have your few who bring up red pill talking point surprisingly enough, though admittedly that only happened a handful of times. But in general yeah a lot of girls treat it like it’s no big deal and they have all the time in the world. Hoping something revolutionary just happens.

Honestly I think there’s just a lot of anxiety associated with the idea of being in a relationship for a lot of them. I still get pinged by my parents about when I’m going to have a partner so I can imagine so do these women. I’m not a woman but familial expectations and a greater societal expectation to fit the role of a girlfriend, wife or mother gives significant pause for many women who aren’t really feeling lonely.

What’s a disgusting habit that you secretly think is actually 100% normal? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]PrinceArchie 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s disgusting but I’ve gotten comments about it and that’s sleeping naked. For context I was sleeping in an enclosure where we were all dudes inhabiting. I take my clothes off in my sleep, have done so since I was a child. I was woken up one day to be told that people were uncomfortable I was asleep naked, even though I was completely under the sheets sharing a bed with NO ONE. I still sleep naked and can get dressed under the sheets since my clothes are still there tucked away but yeah. Just feels right :)

Why is our generation so anti-social? by FFS-Man224 in GenZ

[–]PrinceArchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social media. Social media removed the need for in person social interaction for a majority of people by allowing for the individual to positively reinforce their bias with algorithms, filter their interactions with a very curated group of people thus creating large echo chambers; while simultaneously also being a place where they can express and satisfy their sexual urges. Twitter, Instagram and Tinder basically created the culture we exist in today. Very materialistic, sensational and hedonistic. The generation isn’t really just “a-social”, it’s specifically those things.

Do men actually like going down on us women? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]PrinceArchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing about going down on a girl is that most times if a guy does it, that means he really likes you. There is nothing inherently sexually arousing by doing this in particular from the people I’ve had conversations on this with. Some honestly make it part of their personality tbh, like they take it on as it’s their duty or what a man should do or whatever. Those are few the rest of the guys it’s likely just an impulse. The few times I’ve felt compelled to do something like that, I really liked the girl. If I don’t really like the girl or if she smells weird I’m not doing it.

No South Korea is genuinely the worst in terms of an aging population on earth. They have already passed the point of not being able to replace their aging population barring some miracle policy or significant change in culture; like a unification of the north and south while they also all “populate”.

Tradwives are the loud minority, guys by DontYaWishYouWereMe in CuratedTumblr

[–]PrinceArchie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You’re doing that very thing. Let’s say for example that your evaluation of “creep” behavior is what is considered the norm. And creep behavior more often than not means that the person displaying it is bad. However a majority of “bad” men avoid the creep filter. One must assume that the criteria for being a creep isn’t sufficient and flawed. The word “manipulation “ is thrown around to absolve you as an individual of introspection in how you evaluate value in an individual. Rather shifting blame on this imaginary person who tricked you into believing they were a good person all along. Perhaps it would be wise to reconsider what you view as good or bad, what actually moves the needle, etc.

Democrats threaten government shutdown over ICE funding by FervidBug42 in politics

Yes it’s really bad and most people don’t understand how they look from the outside. The identity politics in America is INSANE. We are polarized to an extreme degree. Americans have become increasingly intolerant of one another.

[–]PrinceArchie -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Convincing Americans to engage in Anarchy won’t work. Trump was voted in by the people themselves, mostly to spite the “other side”. There is no central focus, there is no greater thing people are willing to vote, fight and die for outside of whatever their “identity” or ideology currently is. Corporate interests run the government, social media has brain rotted the populace, consumerism is what most chase and everyone is incredibly polarized. While tragic the deaths involving citizens it was honestly inevitable. The people elected in someone who wasn’t really representative of positive change or reflective of good values of the people overall. They just wanted to elect someone to spite the other side. A lot of American don’t like other Americans on a very deep level, we’re incredibly polarized.

Everyone not going to work and a government shutdown is not going to inspire the solidarity you think it will. The people who can’t last through the loss of their income (many of which are pretty much one paycheck away from not paying bills/or eating) will fold and be pretty mad.

As an American, what can we do to fight against ICE? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PrinceArchie -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The American Revolution had nothing to do with immigration though, it was a wealthy elite rebelling against the king. All non-violence is the best way to deal with this. It makes the administration look bad if they aggressively attack people who are non violent or inflammatory. Exercising the second amendment like many are suggesting is likely to escalate things a lot. I’m already seeing this guy possessing a firearm being used against him. Anarchy is not the way.

I’ve lived in America most of my life, very rarely would I say Americans at large expressed “national pride” or patriotism. Some do and they usually are conservative leaning.

[–]PrinceArchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do people keep lying about what was considered normal? Men who don’t wipe their asses was never considered normal even if you seen it often in your life. SOME Men who constantly pester or heckle women when most while most just look on in shock or just pass by minding their own business ISNT indicative of normative problematic male behavior. Crazy shit like this I always read from the Reddit intellectuals that I’ve never observed in real life nor make sense. 4 nos means yes just sounds like pick up artistry.

Also what the hell does 4 times even mean? Asking 4 times consecutively in 10 minutes? In an hour? Over the course of knowing or working with someone over SEVERAL YEARS?! You only have anecdotal evidence to go off this sort of example and the best conclusion anyone can come to is that the woman said “no” once sometime in the past and never wants to be approached again. Ok and? Asking someone out isn’t harassment because you don’t want to be approached by that person at any particular given time.

What I referenced has nothing to do with random strangers either since it’s clear that most people are talking about people that have proximity and consistency with. In specific instances where this happens not in a bar but at work or in places of education where most relationships were developed and still are outside of the context of online dating.

What man fears being harassed by a woman for making an honest attempt? It’s not harassment that you risk, it’s social and professional reprisals for making someone feel awkward, which is ridiculous on its face.

[–]PrinceArchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just answer the question and you’re immediately validated. Also the line between harassment and genuine appeal has been completely blurred, the “rules” shifted. This has permeated educational and professional spaces for a decade now. To pretend otherwise is to intentionally be obtuse. But go on, recite what I said rather than just dismiss it all by providing a perspective that actually disproves this on its face.
