Women are attracted to relativity

[Basman]

The most extreme version of this polarity is harems. A bunch of women who don't work a day in their life and who's only purpose is to be sex objects for some king, a peak status male. Literal bird cage shit. 

Granted, they where mostly slaves and didn't have a choice in the matter, but you could argue that proves the point of women not being valued for material survival. If they where it wouldn't make sense to lock them up. You'd make your sex slaves till the fields, fish and build houses in between cheek busting.

I think this is too far.

Physical beauty is still a relative notion. If every woman looked equally beautiful, you would not find it as meaningful.

It's worth contemplating what this means. Perhaps if every woman was (nearly) equally beautiful you'd still want the most beautiful ones. And maybe that is already the case?

I mean the historical version is just an extreme example of class warfare. Need more capital -> Go invade a foreign land -> Kill and enslave the men -> Take their women

You can argue it's still what's happening today just with lower stakes.

I think a harem is a really great idea and setup. You're motivated to work hard as a man and you get femininine women that revolve around you and live with you. I'm working on scaling my business to have the cashflow to support a polycule by myself. I think having your women with with you on your business is the peak possible lifestyle.
