    My issue with female hypergamy is not that it exists, but that many women seem to not want to take accountability for their decisions based on their hypergamous behaviour. If you want to marry a CEO over a man in a role on the median wage, then don't complain when you notice he is not emotionally available after working 60-70 hours a week. If feminism helps restructure the entire education system and workplace to cater to and prioritise female needs, which it indeed has, whilst fighting against any effort to address men's needs, then women should not whine and complain when they can't find a man with an income higher than their own and there are a lot of unemployed men. If you want to have ridiculously high standards that few men can meet, then don't complain and ask "where all the good men went" in your 40s, after you have hit the wall. Men select women also ladies and it is not all about us meeting your standards, you have to meet our standards also.
    You need to own your choices and quit blaming men for your delusions of grandeur about yourself, that every woman is entitled to Brad Pitt or a movie star. They are not. Those men have their pick of women, why would they choose you? What makes you so special? There are hundreds of women these men can pick from. All or many of them probably better looking than you.
    Also women should be honest with themselves and others. Don't say it is about the man being sensitive and a good guy, when what it is really about is money and social status. That is why prostitutes should be respected. They are honest.
    If we are going to acknowledge female hypergamy and not frown on women selecting men solely on income or social status, then women have no right to complain about men that select women solely on physical beauty and those women that don't sleep around.
    In summary if you want to surrender to your hypergamous impulses and pretend you can't control them at all to any extent (which we know is BS, just like the BS notion men act purely on sexual urges and cant control them), then be honest about it with yourself and others, be realistic, take accountability for it and don't expect men not to follow suit and focus their attention on the prettiest women.
    Don't expect men to keep subsidising female "liberation" through the feminist welfare state either or continuing to marry women and get into relationships with them for little in return. More men are indeed asking as Warren said, "Why make more money someone else spends when we die sooner?" Increasing numbers of men see little return on their investment of time and energy in marriage and many relationships with entitled princesses and are going their own way (or going MGTOW) and opting out of a one-sided deal. The women that are like that (which are not all women), only have themselves to blame.

      @random.3665 6 років тому +7

      The problem is that it's not just hypergamy that's inherent, but hypoagency as well. So not wanting to take responsibility may have biological aspects as well. Karen actually made a video about it, it is very interesting.

    Karen did amazingly in the last 5 minutes, especially. Women can be a single mother whenever they want. My ex almost fiancée decided that she wanted a kid before she turned 30, so she just asked a few guys if they wanted to have sex and now she is a single mother with child support. In order for a man to have a family, the man needs to tow the line, impress a woman and provide for a woman. Then with no fault divorces, she can divorce him any time for any reason and she knows she gets the kids and the money. And we still have the majority of women still saying that they have never heard of female advantages. Insane.

  • @OmarrMcinnis
    @OmarrMcinnis 6 років тому +11

    What the feminist don't get is that men will themselves to death if it meant that their family is happy and healthy. It is ingrained into us from an early age the truest way to show his love for his family is through self sacrifice and hard work, We love our family by giving of our very life to make sure our family is taken care. That's our sensitivity in love and life is to willing to risk all on a daily basis and quite happily to show the depth of our love for our family. But feminist want to work too, not to honor his sacrifice but hurt, and belittle men by saying you did all of this to control me. This fundamentally tears down men and weaken what women also suffer through at the same time. It's a no win scenario for men.

      @OmniscientWarrior 6 років тому +4

      I think MGTOW is a bit extreme. There are still some good women out there that are worth it and don't make you work unnecessarily for anything. I say "unnecessarily" because in all relationships, the people involved do need to work with each other, work for each other, and have to do things to give the ability to earn trust and earn the trust of the other as well.
      However, you do need to be happy with yourself before you can be happy with another.

    • @YorickReturns
      @YorickReturns 6 років тому +7

      The problem is that the system is feminist. I wouldn't let anyone hold a gun against my head, especially if the legal system said that it would be lawful to pull the trigger. It wouldn't matter how much I trusted that person. If you have sex with a woman, a romantic relationship with a woman, kids with a woman, move in with a woman, get married to a woman, even flirt with a woman, you are putting yourself at serious risk. Everyone knows a man who has been destroyed by the family courts. More and more of us know men who have been falsely accused of sex crimes. It's just not worth it.

    • @lonewaer
      @lonewaer 5 років тому

      @@OmniscientWarrior MGTOW doesn't mean you completely give up on finding someone. Sure there is a subset of MGTOW in which men "go monk", but MGTOW does not advocate completely giving up on finding someone. It advocates "you do you", and if someone comes along the ride without demanding anything (ANYTHING) from you, then ok. But it also understands that any interaction with a woman is a risk, like YorickReturns said.
      It advocates "do not 'try'", first because of the risk, but also because women can also try. In fact it acknowledge that by being the better you you can be, women will start 'trying', mostly because of hypergamy.

When they arrived Lady Vimes noticed a head on the wall as a trophy from days gone by. She turned to him with a gasp and said "Oh no Detritus, I'm so sorry". He studied the head for a moment and asked "Why? I didn't know him."
    Being a former feminist does not make you a man hater, you didn't make the Duluth model law and you didn't protest rape as a crime that women are indictable for. Shitty people are shitty, no matter the gender. The important thing is to keep them out of politics that can affect everyone.

    My sons mother wanted our own place, so did I. I asked her how much she would contribute so we can have a better idea of what we could afford. She said nothing, than she asked for a weekly allowance in exchange for not taking our child away. I refused and so she took me to court with her parents money and got what she wanted. At that point I had 20 years of court ordered allowance I must give her in exchange to see my son for a little time each week. I now have another 18 years. She has been online dating for a while now, when I asked why she is so quick to have them meet our son she explained that she must show them why they are needed because she doesn’t get enough from me. I wonder when enough is enough? Needless to say our son is last on the list of priorities since even with the little time I get she probably only spends that time of not less with him on a weekly basis.

    *Hypergamy in it of isn't bad. Unchecked hypergamy is bad because, as we've observed and experienced, it enables and amplifies the toxic, dysfunctional, and destructive aspects of female nature due to the underlying narrative (or rather, myth) of "male disposability" that unchecked hypergamy perpetuates. Ex: abject narcissism/solipsism, arrogance, deceit, abject pettiness, insatiability, abject apathy, abject whoredom, de facto sexual subordination of most men, emotional immaturity, etc. in women are examples of what happens when you OVERDO attempting to "provide and protect" women via hypergamy.*

    I really do like Karen's point about not making a moral judgement about women as a group over their evolved instincts such as hypergamy, as I think some MRA's and especially MGTOWS can tend to do this. You can morally judge an actual gold-digger, as a gold-digger is making a conscious calculation to pretend to like/love a guy just to get at his money. Hypergamy is just an instinct--just something to be aware of, not to get bitter or judgemental over.

      Frankly i desagree with that.... i dont reelly know how to put it but if women are attracted by the 10 % best resourcefull etc... according to what ive understood about hypergamy, then what is left of the 90% ? Are they worthless ? You see imo when she say hypergamy is an insrinct so theres not much to do about it and its useless to judge it and impose a morale judgment on it she doesnt realise that it's like saying those 90% men are disposable, which utterly paradoxal to her involvement in the men's right issues. Hyoergamy is a trait like an instinct that has to be corrected such as an aim to balance relationship between sexes otherwise why fight for men's issues if this more than a rule, likewise a fundamental instinct isnt challenged vut accepted and not refuted for the sake of men ?

      Sure, I won't blame them for being hypergamous, but I refuse to feel bad for them when it bites them in the ass. All these articles coming out about "can't find a good man", "man children are why women have children later in life", "men need to grow up", etc. Your instincts are working against you, you act like it's still the stone age, but we're in the modern day. You are just as capable of bringing in the bacon, you can make your own money, so maybe considering marrying down, but of course they won't.
      Hypergamy floats: add 40k to however much a woman makes. Women in the 50's made (I'm bullshitting btw, this is to make a point) 1000 dollars, so you have to make 41k. Fast forward to 2018, women make 50k, now you gotta make 90k. And on and on. Sooner or later, women are gonna overtake men in the work force, they will be making more money, they will hold more positions of power, and they STILL will only look up. So yeah, can't hate on them for being wired this way, but I certainly am not gonna shed a tear for a late 30's bitch that "can't find" a man.

      I'll say there is a very fine line between being hypergamous and being a gold-digger, and I'm not too sure where that line is, especially nowadays. What I am sure of, is that if I see something resembling gold-digging, then I'm going to pass a judgment. Maybe that will actually be hypergamy, but I'm at a point where I don't really care because the two are starting to blend into a messy blur. I can see hypocrisy/denial when it's presented to me. Karen says it, hypergamy has been working, but it was also necessary. Now… maybe it still works, but it's not as necessary.
      If women actually want to be strong and independent, and they now CAN do that, then why are they still aiming up ? So no, if anyone wants to try to defend hypergamy as something reasonable, yes it has worked, yes it has been necessary, but now, I personally associate the two, and no, just because it's an instinct, it shouldn't be left alone, it should be at the very least controlled (by them). And if a woman is financially independent, for herself, for one child, but not for two children, then maybe she should evaluate how many children is reasonable for her to have. One is ok, two is too fucking much for her situation. But setting the standard that her man will have to have the resources for her to have a second child is gold-digging, in my eyes. They ask why they should not be "having careers", and are fighting to have careers, but not why men should still be paying for their progenies.
      In French we have an expression : "Wanting the butter, the money from the butter, and the creamer's ass." It means wanting something for free, without having to return anything ; but also wanting more than that. To me that's what women do. They want the well paying job, they want to not pay for their dates/families, and they also don't want to lower their standards. That's what's happening nowadays.

    Ha! I thought I was the only one who'd twigged to the fact that Roe vs Wade only permits a woman to terminate her pregnancy. It lets a woman refuse to house, provide for and protect another life with her own. Ie. it gives women the right to induce labour. It does *not* permit direct action to terminate the life of the fetus (which is alive, whether we argue the academics of its personhood or not).
    The right to induce labour should be enshrined in law, along with equivalent legislation for men, like legal paternal surrender. Karen has also spoken on this issue, for those who are unfamiliar with the terms of legal paternal surrender. So has Women Against Feminism [womenagainstfeminism.com/equality-in-reproduction/].

      "It lets a woman refuse to house, provide for and protect another life with her own." Yes, that's known as Property Rights.
      With this demand, women by default have legally labeled themselves as PROPERTY.

    I think the reason some men today are upset about hypergamy and why it may come across as thinking of women as just gold diggers by nature, is because of the state of modern relationships.
    Most men today under 60 really dont remember what it was like when women genuinely cared for men and wanted them around to make the womans life better, to make her less lonely, to give her a child and then take care of him the same way she expected him to take care of her.
    Too few women are like that these days so it feels like women just keep asking for more but giving so little, and only what and when they want to.
    It can be quite depressing and make relationships feel hopeless and make a man resentful of women.
    Right now, hypergamy means that most men cant get a woman or when they do it ends terribly for them.
    And now since women think they dont need a man, they only go after a select few. Seems to be only around 20% of men have any luck these days, while in the past, with arranged marriages and men being valued for their place in society and hard work, most men had at least a chance.
    I cant say that I have given up on American women. I want to be open minded. But for the most part, I am looking outside of the west for somebody to care for.
    Because I do want to be there for somebody, to provide for them and we make each others life better.

    • @ryanisbelle6107
      @ryanisbelle6107 Рік тому

      Abortion being legal Nationwide was made a law in Canada just like every other law. It went through the entire process of debate, and votes, and signatures. In order to overturn it, that entire process must be done again.
      In the united states, abortion became legal because one set of Supreme Court Justices from the 1970s decided that it should be. Instead of taking the justices advice and enshrining it into law like Canada did, America just let the Supreme Court be the opinion of the land. Not the law.
      Today the Supreme Court no longer holds that opinion and abortion is no longer the law of the land. Easy come, easy go. Is essentially what she's saying.

    @jotun.616 6 років тому +1

    That last point leads into the bigger philosophical debate of, are we too far passed the times of real oppression to see how decent things are, socially, now? My generation was probably the first to grow up without knowing true social imbalances. Of course there will always be the plight of the poor, but mass legal and social racism, sexism, etc was all but dead by the time i was old enough to even understand what that looked like. I see my generations big war as personal. Every one was just fighting their own personal battles of angst. We had no big fight so we did what sane people would do in that situation and took a look at ourselves as individuals. Seems to me the next generation has chosen to do what assholes do and refuse to look at themselves in any meaningful way. Chosing instead to invent a war and wage battles where there are none. For all intents and purposes its social terrorism. Especially when it is distracting from the pockets of true injustice that we still have. Black lives matter shouldnt have been a national campaign because its not a national problem, but people wanted a fight. So it became an issue completely unrelated to what it started as. Same with feminism. Like karen said, they should be focused on the pockets that have resisted true change. Not blowing it up into a fake national crisis so that those pockets just go unnoticed. Its the same tactics fucking politicians use. Distract us enough so proper change never occurs. Only these social justice groups, for the most part, are doing it unintentionally. Being their own roadblock. Out of what basically amounts to boredom, not for justice.

    @whybother757 6 років тому +2

    First time I've seen Karen get it wrong, and WAY the hell wrong: hypergamy WAS necessary. It isn't necessary now, and that DOES make it a moral failing for women to monkeybranch from wallet to wallet. If women are as capable as they claim, this is a behavior of a bygone era that is utterly intolerable and unforgivable now.

    • @Dem1861
      @Dem1861 6 років тому +1

      ...but she distinguishes between hypergamy and golddigging using the example of the artist with greater status but little money. If women practised hypergamy in the past the way Karen says, surely that kind of evolutionary predisposition is not immediately switched off. The material reality of some women earning more and having more social status than they used to is such a new phenomenon and restricted to the upper class women who complain the most about having no rights. How many women do you know who 'choose' to work?

      Film Review Show Considering how ostensibly evolved, non-judgmental, and non-superficial women claim to be in comparison to the "lowly" men who built and maintain society and invented most of the products on which they rely, women should damn well PROVE their superiority by dumping hypergamy.
      BTW, the gold digger vs. hypergamy thing strikes me as a distinction without a difference. A rare bit of self-serving sophistry from Karen, or AWALT.

    • @Dem1861
      @Dem1861 6 років тому +1

      Your first point seems to be more a dig at the type of rabid feminists who dominate the culture. Even if all women were like this (I don't think I am for example) it wouldn't follow that we would date as a way of proving superiority. Unless you mean stereotypes like a wealthy older woman with a hunky toyboy or say a wealthy older man with a young trophy on his arm. I put it to you that as the baby-carrying sex, women are still vulnerable/susceptible to the kind of choices that no amount of social engineering will eradicate - at least not right away.
      Dating an impoverished hipster comedian is clearly not the same as frequenting a trendy nightclub trying to hook a wealthy athlete. Also, your desire for women to be more honourable and start dating ‘down’ as men often do, requires some changes in societal attitudes. You forget that up until very recently, women were being sold romantic fantasies where the man had more status and wealth than she. Look at films we grew up with where the man ‘steals a kiss’ etc but now such film is ‘problematic’. Han Solo in Empire Strikes Back, anyone? This demand for higher morals from women which you’re making is similar to the feminists in that both ignore the largely unchanged physical reality for most men and women.

      ...in the film Cocktail, Tom Cruise wants Elisabeth Shue but her Dad thinks lowly Tom is not good enough for her because he is only a bartender. But the opposite - the male doctor marrying a nurse, businessman marrying a secretary used to pass without comment. Now people claim it's all change. It's not. You have to bat away innuendo about who wears the trousers in the house amongst other things.

    That is the point of the resentment that men have that they are now forced to do their role . Women have the option and can have a family anytime and men cannot and they have to provide if they don’t they will never reproduce. This is the problem men were also respected when it was traditional so now we don’t have that option. We are either forced into it and the woman can opt out at any time or even if it’s not your baby you can get charged with it you have to pay for it for 18 to 25 years. It’s the back that women for the most part don’t have to respect men anymore there’s no social pressure or anything to respect them so now not only do we have the responsibility in the hardship were not even respected for our role in society anymore. Imagine the role that stay at home mothers feel sometimes times 100 over your lifetime and that’s how Man feel.

    That a woman can refuse a DNA test to a guy who suspects he might be the father of her child speaks volumes about how the system caters to women. It's pretty fucked up that a man may end up paying child support to a kid his ex got from cheating with some "badboy". I'm happy to live in Scandinavia (Europe), at least here the court system is a bit more gender neutral. What a woman brings into a house, she brings out of the house. If a legal document states that the flat/house belongs to the man, the man gets it.

    Men are easy to understand because they're pretty straightfoward. The reason most women (mostly feminists) don't understand men is because they're too busy over analyzing power hierarchies and money and rights and stuff instead of paying attention to basic biology and how people actually act in their daily life and their choices in life.
    I feel like Karen's got it in the bag. She's been paying attention to the real world and so it's not hard to see why men do the things they do.
