  1. @Tyler Robinson I only just watched one video of him for the first time, I think everything he said is true, except the bragging parts. Definitely poison to the neo feminist movement, but a lot of what he is saying is good for most men. Just real world. I haven't watched anything else of his, but seems like women could gain some understanding of men from him, a lot of modern women refuse to accept men for men, instead of just liberating women it goes into confining men trying to make them women
  2. Desensitize the penis so guys aren't so sexual *this is a heinous reason, but the real reason since victorian era/industrial revolution, keep the poor from over breeding Pre Victoria; similar reason but symbolic and less removed, more sensitivity left It was in western Europe, with the Industrial Revolution, that the second population revolution began. Europe's population doubled during the 18th century, from roughly 100 million to almost 200 million, and doubled again during the 19th century, to about 400 million. The modern use of Hebrew circumcision as a medicalized practice dates from about 1865 in England and about 1870 in the US. The procedure accepted for medical use essentially was the Jewish peri'ah. http://www.cirp.org › library › history History of Circumcision
  3. Yeah, I don't think marriage makes unhappy people happy, I think it's a next level sort of thing. My emphasis in the post that started our conversation is meant to be spending your life going as deep as you can with one person rather than multiple shallower relationships. It's just my view, marriage isn't for everyone.
  4. In the second path you see the only logical thing to do is "surrender"
  5. You shouldn't get into a relationship until you know how to love You shouldn't get into marriage until you're ready to commit to a marriage And did she get everything she put into the marriage back? No, most of it is intangible, you gonna go to your exes when she has the flu and nurse her? This is bullshit, someone with that mentality will not have a pretty martiage, ALL income made during the marriage is made by both partners, it's not dating, this is ridiculous you are like one person when married, one legal entity, one Yes, men get alimony half the woman's retirement for them refusing without legit reason, in merica' anyway and any other backwards country
  6. I would like some others view's on the following concept; I think there's a trap in spirituality where you think being a part of society is a trap, but you're just looking at the problem of society controlling you with too broad of a brush stroke, you shouldn't let society control you but going with the flow of society is a fun adventure to partake in. A way to tell if you're being controlled by "secular society" or "spirituality society" is if you have anxiety/fear, if you're having fun/are joyful; then you're just going with the flow/adventure, you're on the "right" path. We have a life GPS within us that we can trust, that we can use whenever we like, go with the peace, flee from the angst, worldly and spiritually speaking *all paths are "right", I just mean the peaceful path, the path that brings you peace. Somehow this reminds me of " do or do not, there is no try" If anything is worth doing you will do it, if it's not worth sacrificing your life for, you shouldn't do it. When you're truly at peace with a decision; there's no longer choice, or a matter of will power, it's what you must do or die trying
  7. Yeah, I mean why I've avoided trying to have an intimate relationship with people, because it's often not going to work out like you said, but they get attached and I see a diminishing return continuing the relationship.
  8. On the "path to enlightenment" or after, do you come back to society and integrate back into it in a way where you appear as a normal person in society at least on the surface? I keep detaching more from society in terms of how I think and what I believe and I have less of a social need. I still do and want to live in society and be a part of it, I'm just definitely less attached to it than I was. I'm afraid I'll get to a point where I'll be very detached permanently, I think I will always come back to be a part of it but I have this fear I may just keep getting more distant. It seems like more and more people seem asleep to me, I feel more and more alien. Also, if you think I may be doing, or following something, or believing something wrong please let me know, I'm not afraid to take help, and I don't and never have done drugs by the way.
  9. No. Just a few standards, I leave the rest up for surprise, if you look for a specific person a.) You probably won't find them B.) You ruin the surprise of life if you know how it works out My few standards are; -Compassionate -Down to earth -Intelligent -a height range and same race I think with those, although few they are relatively high bars together though, I have someone I can navigate a healthy relationship with and I also get the constant surprise of life unfolding in the present rather than resenting what doesn't unfold as I planned I thinks it toxic or unhealthy to want the perfect partner. Relationships are about adventure not destination or goals or accomplishing something, adventure, have fun, see what comes
  10. Yeah, that's what I think it is. In a way they do care about me, they're just scared of change and that causes them to hurt me. That's what requires letting go on my part, I think this is why I don't like temporary intimate relationships, you hurt them when you let go

  12. I have people that attack me just for what I choose to do myself, I never even push spiritual or life stuff and they still attack me for what I do.
  13. Are you saying you think they do that because they start to fear their life has no meaning? Like it's an ego defense mechanism, they get uncomfortable so they try to say something in hopes of reassurance to come that what they're saying is true, sort of like a passive way to ask for reassurance?
  14. No, marriage is a life partnership, all income made during the marriage is equal parts his and hers. I think there will be a marriage revolution, the anti marriage people are proven study after study to be more miserable. You get the evangellyfish bullshit out of it it is purely beautiful, if you spend life with one person rather than 3 you'll go deeper in the one with one
  15. Yeah the part where they attack you for not following is still painful to me, it's very confusing to me why they do that. It feels like your whole relationship was a sham, they never loved you, and you wasted all of that time and energy
  16. I don't think so, could you elaborate? I sometimes find society, most people/social circles very boring and fake, and I know how to enjoy being alone or with a girlfriend, so when I get tired of society I detach, I fill up and then I feel like trying to give love to people, returning to social circles. I don't really understand it, this is just an observation of myself. I guess permanent withdrawal would be dualistic
  17. That's a very unhealthy way to view that, purely negative purely wrong. "I paid for all of it". No, income during marriage is both of yours, she doesn't work for you! he didn't lose half of anything half of it was always hers. He whines about paying for his daughter? Yeah if you listen to people like this guy you're fuked Why did they divorce? If she cheated or refused sex he would've got everything This guy has the maturity of a 10 year old, yeah he shouldn't have gotten married until he knew how to be a husband, of course
  18. If you're having trouble picking someone up "at least equal in attractiveness" you're likely over rating your attractiveness "Not fat or a bitch" nicer women are easier to get so I don't see how that would be a problem.
  19. Adopt a kid Apologize, give them a gift
  20. I think the creativity and courage aspects might go so far that they think there's a problem. And if they ask if you ever get unhappy or negative and you say never, I don't think they'd believe you
  21. Okay well I'll post here then. Are you looking for a highly specific type of woman? Are you being choosy? Or do you think no woman will be with you?
  22. Mind directing me to your thread, I haven't figured out this forum well enough yet to navigate well It's easy, you don't need to practice you just need to lose the ignorance you've been taught that's holding you back
