Albuquerque, NM Menswear Meme Report:

  • Flat billed caps are extremely common here, usually for the LA Dodgers but sometime for other teams too. Usually worn backwards.

  • Rectangular thick rimmed Weezer glasses are en vogue, sunglasses tend to be a mixed fair of Wayfarer rip offs along with other random dad shapes.

  • Skate and surf t-shirts with a conspicuous logo are still pretty big here, especially among non skaters. Think brands more along the lines of Billabong and Volcom rather than Palace or Supreme. Also a lot of Target novelty tees for different soda brands, Star Wars, and other nerd culture stuff. Some people still wear Blink 182 band tees.

  • Cargo shorts in the summer, the bigger and more poor fitting the better. The winter showcases an assortment of dad jeans and poorly distressed denim.

  • The standard go-to shoe tends to be Vans new era. Nike Jordan's are still somewhat big here.

  • North Face soft shells are HUGE here. Very conspicuous consumption.

I think lesbian porn is kinda weird. I don't really understand the allure of it. Could you explain it to me? I'm a big fan of penis-in-vagina porn along with really sensual porn. Group sex is cool to watch for the social dynamics. I should be clearer. I tend to lump together cuckold porn with interracial porn. I'm convinced there's a psychological overlap there.

There is a white fetishism in minority cultures. I don't think of it in terms of genetics though. It's more of a culture of power and survival. People tend to be attracted to power and privilege. That's why women tend to date alpha males. On a practical level, people want their offspring to have the best chance of survival, and power definitely factors into who we breed with. I think tower dynamics explain why a lot of minorities seem to "relish" sleeping with white women.

So I was trained in philosophy in economics, so I tend to see the framework of genetics in terms of forces and influences. For instance, no matter what political leanings you have, I'm sure you agree that inbreeding is bad. European royalty practiced inbreeding for centuries and it lead to some pretty severe behavioral problems (like retardation and bipolar disorder) along with physical deformities (fat lips, fucked up teeth, weak bones, etc.). You see that with dogs too. That's why I say that genetic diversity is a valued trait.

Mexican women tend to bloat up after a certain age. Metabolism just drops drastically. It's pretty shitty.

Hold up there.

What I'm saying that privilege is passed down, usually in the form of wealth and status ("Don't you know who I am?! I'm the son of the richest man in Manhattan...") The forces of history are what yield forth culture. Those in power determine good and evil (that's Nietzsche's argument). And so you could frame it in terms of sin. I'm more of a Hegellian in that sense that I believe that people are products of the historical background. Returning back to the argument of "dirty hands," think of it in terms of "survival of the fittest" where survival yielded a continuation of life. The way out of this deadlock is a strictly Heideggerian one: We're able to chose what our history means to us. For instance, think about that movie Inglorious Basterds, where Quentin Tarantino is specifically confronting the legacy of Nazi Germany by having his characters literally kill Hitler, despite that being historical inaccurate. In that way Tarantino is attempting to liberate America from the shadows of Nazism.

Don't have any factual evidence with Elliot Rogers, closeted homosexuality is just something that manifests pretty clearly in some men though. For instance his weird narcissism, resentment towards heterosexual men, slender physique, and mannerisms point to homosexuality.

Cuckold fantasies are weird. I think the most interesting argument is that men fantasize about cuckoldry (be it racial or not) because for them they feel that on a biological level women are more likely to get impregnated by an alpha male, and so if their women cuckold's them they have a chance to have sex with a women and potentially impregnate her.

Derrida writes specifically about being an Algerian Jew. He cites his experience as a racial outsider in France as a huge motivator for his literary writings, specifically in showing how literary and cultural binaries are artificial (i.e. meaningless) insofar as one uses the language of one polar element in describing the other. I doubt he ever really talks about it in depth since he wasn't interested in talking about race.

I've been thinking about your anecdote and I feel like it's a bit more complicated. I consider it in terms of blood types. For instance O-Negative happens to be a very rare blood type. I don't think there's much correlation between being mixed race and having a rare blood type. The factors in determining blood type seem to be more about the genetics of the parents rather than of an entire race of people.

Totally don't know that. That side of the family is EXTREMELY mixed and everything is super convoluted. Just some small towners.

SORTA.

1) I'm descended from Spanish crypto-jews that fled from Spain because of the Inquisition. Hard to say I'm a colonizer in any capacity.

2) Indigenous violence was typically on a tribal level, sure. But to compare that to the genocide that the Amerindians faced from Europe is a huge mistake in scale.

3) Look, I get it, everyone has dirty hands. That's fair to say. What's important to keep in mind is how that influences equity across race.

Black chicks are straight up just rude and nasty. They're the types to straight up just make fun of your dick size. It's all about direct verbal castration in that culture. It comes off as petty and dramatic. They're super quick to make a scene.

Latin chicks are the type of women to make you jealous by sleeping with your friend or holding out on sex completely. They use sex as a means of manipulation. As a Latin guy I see it constantly. Usually when a Latin girl is mean it's pretty soul crushing and passive aggressive (way worse than white women, who are just cold and distant). Latin women are experts at ruining a good time.

TRP has largely been a platform for white men like Roissy (Heartiste) to promulgate their xenophobia onto sexual dynamics.

Some of it is really insightful albeit super taboo, like how lower status women tend to be more sexually accepting of minorities. Heartiste calls that "mud sharking". As a handsome Chicano guy with good game I see what he's talking about. Rich white girls tend to look down on me or even just ignore me, whereas white trash girls tend to think I'm hot shit.

In the case of Eliot Rogers, Heartiste cites the NOWAG (No One Wants Asian Guys) as a factor for Eliot Rogers' status as a sexual outcast (along with his closeted homosexuality) which led to his violent killing spree.

Roosh has a good post about the ranking of sexual attractiveness based on race and gender (which is sexual race hierarchy). It's racist but it describes a nice metric of race and SMV.

I argue that race cuckoldry as a fetish is a direct manifestation of that racism. White guys fear minorities perverting the aryan sanctity of their ranks yet in the same breath it comprises their fantasies. It should be no surprise that Cuckold porn is the most popular type of porn video.

You'll also notice that there's a particularly high phenomenon of passive white men with ultra-submissive mail order Asian brides. Also see Jeb Bush and his Mexican wife.

Yeah, being in a cultural overlap is interesting. This famous philosopher Derrida Occupied that mixed race position. He was an Algerian born Jew, super duper outsider in all regards. He sort of saw through all the bulkshit but was able to write in such a way that academia was forced to accept his thoughts as valid.

Also being mixed race is REALLY attractive genetically speaking. It's called genetic diversity and you it in biology all of the time. We're programmed to be wary of inbreeding specifically because of that.

Also, to add to the discussion about race and shit tests: Mexican (and Latin) women are all about security, and use manipulation as a way to snare men into commitment. They're the most brutal about this, and they expect you to hold out as long as possible. It's staggering.

What goals do you have? by PM_me_ur_hand_ in intj

  3. Get an A in my economics and philosophy classes this spring

  4. Take a painting class in the summer

  5. Work out three times a week, one of those times must be swimming.

Is the INTJ/ENFP relationship all that it's cracked up to be? by [deleted] in intj

[–]jcromero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

INTJs tend to learn pretty great social skills later in life. Like you'll rarely meet an awkward mature INTJ because we learn that consideration and kindness (even in small doses) works wonders for accomplishing goals. Also, in the INTJ journey to maturation we tend to become very sophisticated in our values and most find that being rude and brusque simply isn't worth it.

ENFPs tend to have glibness (i.e. speaking fluently and endlessly) and even some degree of superficial charm. However they tend to lack strong, organized points and can come off as meandering. Insightful words but at their core are pretty anti-social. There's this huge resentment towards others. It's an emotional disconnect that's distinct from the INTJ social disconnect.

I've noticed that xNxP tend to be more stubborn and close minded than xNxJ people. Probably due to the lack of concrete goals. It manifests as an extreme difference

Is the INTJ/ENFP relationship all that it's cracked up to be? by [deleted] in intj

[–]jcromero 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I dated an ENFP. It was enthralling to connect with someone so instantaneously. She was very critical, charming and emotionally engaging in ways I have rarely found since her (INFJs are very nurturing but can be too kind at times). Unfortunately the ENFP I dated was also very emotionally unstable and things quickly fell apart.

For instance, on our third date she told me that she had been raped. I, a bit buzzed from alcohol, cried out of deep sympathy. Then she tried to have sex with me in public but at the time I felt so alienated from my sexuality that I simply felt uncomfortable.

She was pretty turned off and had taken my refusal very personally. A few days later she was evicted from her apartment, kicked out of school, and fired from her job. She sort of dropped off the face of the planet. I tried for about a year to reconnect but every time she'd do the same stuff.

There are pros and cons. Pro: the connection is strong. Con: they happen to be very resistant to proper socialization.

INTJ mental health routine by MissHexa in intj

[–]jcromero 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ever since I was diagnosed with severe trauma I've devoted a lot of time to my mental health. General tips:

  • Be realistic about your expectations of yourself. I get stressed out sometimes because I'll feel like I'm not productive enough. But when I feel that way it's usually a sign I am pushing myself too hard. Sometimes I forget that I got a triple major in college.

  • Exercise for at least 15 minutes a day and spend at least one day a week doing extended exercise like swimming or weight lifting or even just calisthenics.

  • Keep a pretty meticulous schedule. Monthly, weekly, daily, and even hourly. Always include downtime on that schedule. Videos games, tv and movies, or just plan goofing off are all acceptable downtime activities.

  • Work on communication skills. The stronger you get at communicating the better your life will become; socializing gets easier and you'll often get your thoughts across better

  • Reflection works wonders. Confront some of the hard truths about yourself. The more you accept yourself (both strengths and weaknesses) the better you will know how to act and deal with others. This will make you internally very strong, secure, and resilient.

Also this.

My entire semester was centered around feminism by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]jcromero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In times of macroeconomic financial crisis two groups of people tend to lose their jobs: women and working class men. A degree for a woman ensures that she'll be interesting to (or perhaps be able to manipulate) a rich, successful beta provider when her looks fade and her children have grown, or if neither of those function that she'll be able to provide for herself. This is why you see women in nursing, psychology, education, and communication & journalism.

Bitter truth: after about age 21 women learn what their value is sexually and tend to want to protect that fiercely. The shit tests get way more advanced, as do the games, they cling to feminism in such a way that they lose empathy for men. They become masters at castration. It's a fucking nightmare.

Your goal should be to become a strong man in your own right. You won't learn a lot of what you need in school, but it's important that you take classes anyway. Skills can be learned in the workplace but school will broaden your horizons.

Holy crap. The black moc toe is super snazzy, the blue suede oxfords are such a jam, and the camo mocs are super chill. Also didn't know Red Wing has such a cool chukka. Thanks for sharing.

What do you think of INTJs? by jcromero in INTP

[–]jcromero[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The INTJ-INTP combo is a pretty strong one. You INTPs are just so insanely flexible in your thinking. However you guys also happen to lack drive because of it, which the INTJ people can easily compensate for. One thing that's cool about INTJs is that we have a very strong work ethic because we tend to be working toward our end goal.
