Individuals

Don’t (Specifically) Date Ugly Women.

A lot of guys do try to date women considered ugly because they assume they’ll be easier to deal with and less entitled. Alexander is right, though. That’s a bad strategy. Don’t do it. Women are individuals, first, of course. You can’t judge how someone will behave and what they’ll be like solely (nor even mostly) based on her appearance.

However, in general, more attractive women will have higher self-esteem. They also tend to have superior social skills and are used to being approached so often handle it better and more playfully 1.

Also, no one wants to feel that you’re dating them or are with them as a favor or that they are your second or third choice. It’s horrible. It only breeds resentment and then, likely, contempt. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

I really dislike the numerical categorization of people by attractiveness, but I guess I’ll do it too as it’s easy at least. I’ve dated women most people would call 10s and I’ve dated 3s. Since in all cases I dated them mostly for their personality and compatibility 2, I think my experiences might not be representative. However, all that said, what he concludes with about self-esteem is correct: no matter if absurdly beautiful or plain, that self-esteem portion is what matters.

Just like choosing a beautiful woman only because she’s beautiful is a bad way to do it, picking an ugly woman just because she’s unattractive is also (unsurprisingly) an atrocious strategy.

  1. I’ve been rejected by very beautiful women where I actually felt better than before. Now that’s a skill!
  2. Yes, there has to be some initial attraction first, duh.

Both

I like Aella, but this is a fucking idiotic take. It’s both, of course. That dude was a sociopath and the system sucks. He very much deserved death. That assassination was justice and the system itself should be torn down and reconstituted completely to be fair and equitable.

Why is that so fucking hard to understand? Aella is sex worker, but she’s also fairly right-wing in a lot of ways (this is more common than you think).

Structures

I think we got lucky with this house we bought; there don’t seem to be any major structural issues or water damage undetected in the initial inspection. A lot of houses from the 1970s and 1980s do have those sort of problems that the sellers attempt to hide.

The main problem seems to be electrical oddness. One of the circuits in the garage has gone out and we’ve yet to call an electrician to repair it. (No, it’s not a breaker tripped and needing to be reset.) Still, the electrical systems here are more reliable than our prior rental where it was so unstable that our TV would blink off routinely in the middle of watching shows and movies.

So we’re happy so far. Have also seen no demons or malevolent ghosts. Yet.

Desire the Sire

And about the below, those incel-like women, I 100% know those women did not want me. They were just upset that if they had desired me, I would’ve turned them down. They didn’t like knowing that I wasn’t an option if they changed their mind.

A little understandable and a little fucked up at the same time. People are indeed strange.

Standardly

Men why is society pushing so hard that if a man has standards it means heโ€™s insecure?

That’s because women nearly completely control the dating market, and men having standards doesn’t benefit them individually or as a group. I have never in my life (outside of inhuman levels of bullying in rural North Florida) been as excoriated as I have when I’ve told women that I have a lot of standards that nearly no women meet.

Man, that pisses ’em off. I’ve even had friends get mad at me about that. I guess it’s an incel reaction but seen in a woman (where it looks a bit different).

My main, completely-inviolable standard is that I need someone intellectually close to my level. Otherwise, it’s not gonna work. And that automatically excludes 99.95% of humanity, but so what? The women included in that tend to be much more attracted to me than otherwise.

And no tattoos, of course. I mean, duh.

Nano

If in this hypothetical scenario I were also allowed the ability to hire multiple full-time nannies and someone to manage and monitor the nannies, then I’d do it for nine figures — say $100 million.

If not, no amount of money would cause me to do this. To me, taking care of kids (even my own) would be absolute hell. It’s just one of the worst thing I can imagine for myself.
