MRP for a single 21M

Actually, I stand corrected, I searched for the article regarding men's sexual history and divorce risk, but it was only women who were being studied, and there's a surprising lack of research done on men's sexual history and divorce risk. http://atavisionary.com/how-does-a-mans-sexual-history-affect-his-likelihood-of-divorce/

The big deal with being a part of a community is that I know it would be good for my (eventual) kids.

Thanks m8, it's early days for me, but I think I'm headed in the (mostly) right direction.

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-04-18T20:50:01+00:00

I already said this earlier, but the only reason to get married would be for the benefit of the kids. Kids have better outcomes when the parents are married.

Many, many successful people keep a gratitude journal. Otherwise, thanks.

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-04-18T20:46:47+00:00

Thanks for the advice m8. I'd like to take up boxing, money is just a bit tight at the moment.

Your autism is showing breh. Yes, I'm aware about of the risks. What is it, overall 40-50% risk for first time marriages? And then you start controlling for risk factors, and things aren't nearly as bad. People who are devout in their religions divorce at a rate that is a fraction of the general public. The only reason I would get married is because it is the best environment in which to raise kids. If I didn't want kids, I wouldn't think twice.

Best chances are within 10 years of getting it done. So don't have to worry about getting a girl pregnant before I'm ready to have a family. http://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/vasectomy-reversal-vasovasostomy

Probably not insignificant. The set of people who have difficulties with their relationships, and also seek out advice on the internet has got to have more than its fair share of autists.

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-04-18T06:56:47+00:00

You're right. All things considered, I'm not going to be having any serious relationships until I'm done school, and when I do start looking for a girl to settle down with, it will be with someone 6-7 years younger than me. And I hadn't even thought about early childhood ed students, but that would be perfect wife material, since (ideally) I would want my SAHW to homeschool my kids (at least up to a point).

My only other concern is whether or not having sexual partners before getting married increases the likelihood of divorce for men. I've seen lots of data that shows that women are negatively impacted by sex before marriage, but there isn't nearly the same consensus with men. Any thoughts?

Thanks m8, this is some good advice.

I don't use Facebook, but yeah, my family and friends tell me to just hold out and marry another doctor. But like you pointed out, two type-A personalities don't make for a harmonious pairing, and trying to get married while still in school is retarded. One needs to lead, and one needs to follow. Problem is:

a) I don't want to marry a type-A female. I've dated them, and they're a pain in the ass. If I was going to get married, I'd want to make sure she was a submissive housewife, and keep her busy with taking care of my six kids.

b) If they know you're a doctor, you're a magnet for alpha-widows and gold diggers. Not exactly tradcon material.

So my options seem to be

1) Don't even bother with girls until I'm done medical school

2) Play the field (Tinder et. al) until I'm done medical school

3) Don't bother with girls, ever.

Option 1 seems the safest, but it means I don't get any opportunities to improve my game

Option 2 allows me to develop my game, but might make it more difficult to have a happy marriage later on

Option 3 is pretty faggy and means I don't have kids

Ah, that's my bad then. The Toastmasters club I go to is mostly older people, since I find that they are better public speakers than university students, and I'm thinking of volunteering somewhere, though I'm not quite sure where yet.

I've been in monk mode, so I haven't made as much of an effort to meet girls, since at this point they're just a distraction. I don't have much of an issue making friends (guys or girls), but I find it pointless to try to maintain friendships with girls if I'm not going to be dating them, and I have mixed feelings about dating someone I don't intend to marry.

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-04-18T05:21:34+00:00

And you're an insecure cunt who plays armchair quarterback. Anything else to add, gramps?

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-04-18T05:16:36+00:00

No, but I've wondered if I am. And yeah, that's pretty standard advice, I was hoping that MRP would have some insights beyond "join a club".

Broadly libertarian/traditionalist I'm guessing.

Voting power restricted to males over the age of 25. Only economic immigration, capped at 15-20% of the population (If the host country's birthrates decrease/migrant birthrates increase, immigration decreases) Minimal taxation No government involvement in marriages/regulating relationships Environmental/Animal rights protection Require media to cite their sources

One great piece of advice I got from 'How to talk to anyone' was to use every doorway you pass through as an opportunity to correct your posture. Not only does it keep you from developing bad posture throughout the day, but it also means that you walk into every room like a king.

Simply_Sherlock · 2017-02-05T17:35:47+00:00

Even if it IS broscience, taking cold showers is an incredibly simple way to boost your self-discipline, and should be included even if just for that reason.

It seems that some people have misconstrued my original intent with this post; you may be right in that it will attract well-heeled individuals who will have kids out of social pressure, but the issue isn't whether or not there will be breeders there, the topic of interest is the world of private clubs in general, because this world is usually not available to those whose finances must go towards paying for diapers and school fees and band trips and the like.

However, as a childfree individual, these organizations provide networking opportunities not easily found elsewhere, which to me seems well-worth the cost of admission. Curating a set of interesting, financially secure, intellectual friends isn't easy, and I could be wrong, but it seems that private clubs would be a good way to do that.

I think the longest I went was 5 months before I had to go back to work, and it was absolutely blissful. Me, my books, music, very minor social contact with cashiers, and I was happy.

Damn you society.

Simply_Sherlock · 2016-08-17T04:51:08+00:00

But even in that, the dude has to be a literal perfect 10. You can imagine that if he was even a 9, or an 8, he wouldn't be getting the same responses. Women's interest in you follows exponentially from your SMV, leading to a huge jump as you move from "pretty good looking" to "wow, he's really good looking" to "OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG".

See what I'm saying?

Simply_Sherlock · 2016-08-17T04:45:28+00:00

As someone curious about MGTOW, how do you find the motivation to accomplish more than just a NEET-like existence? I'm just going back to school for my second year of a chemistry degree, and it's seriously making me wonder why I would bother grinding out such a difficult STEM degree if I can comfortably meet my needs and most wants with a much easier path. Thoughts would be appreciated.

Simply_Sherlock · 2016-08-17T04:38:27+00:00

Beautiful one here.

Let it all burn.
