having a beautiful girl who you love smile laugh and touch you and you talk with her tremulous soft little voice about anything it doesnt matter she is perfect and wears cute sweaters with the sleeves pulled down and narrows her shoulders and holds her arms while standing then in the morning her black hair is all messy and shes shy about it but you tell its fine really its better fine stop worrying i love you so much more than everything and it makes you wonder about whats bothering her because she acts weird now even though youre so happy and honest thats all i want but she doesnt want you anymore i dont think she ever liked me and instead of saying that just lets it taper out into a sad pensive shadow before some other man so much different talks to her and she switches over like it was nothing because it was nothing to her all along but she is still everything even when shes gone

This. I often wonder if all the misogynists on this site all have absolutely shit-tier mothers (and aunts, grandmothers, sisters etc). It's the only way their beliefs make sense to me.

This is oversimplifying.

Just because you have a bad relationship with your father, for instance, does not mean you will form a bad opinion of men in general. I would guess that people who have bad parents are actually more likely to see a contrast between people who resemble their parents and people who don't. People who are closer to their parents tend to be more wary of others, strangers for instance, whereas people with bad parents tend to leave home and explore, finding themselves more at home with other people.

Your relationship to your mother has a much more broad effect on you, it is not just about women. You probably don't really make a distinction between men and women for a long time; think of yourself as a child, you might have learned that the men in your life were more stern and the women more friendly or playful, but even then you were probably not connecting these impressions to gender. Rather, you associated gentleness with "Grandmother" and maybe seriousness with "Grandfather" but you did not yet associate Grandmother with "women", for you had not thoroughly investigated this category at such a young age.

Now, this is not to say that your relationships with your family will have an effect on how you deal with others, and how you approach your first love and so forth; they certainly will, but it is not as simple as saying a bad relationship with a mother equals a bad relationship with women. If all the women in your life are bad, then yes, you might end up coming to the conclusion that women in general having something wrong with them.

But you have to ask yourself: do any of my male friends wear makeup and/or have a physical attraction to me?

You would say, Of course not! If they did I would not be friends with them, because my friendship revolves around different things, and them wearing makeup or finding me physically attractive would detract from that.

Now then, how could you be friends with a woman, given that most women wear makeup and tend to have physical attractions for men? This is surely not something you can identify with, so how can you say that this is a friendship, if this person (were they a male) would not meet the conditions you have for all the people you consider friends?

Clearly, women are something very strange, and not at all like men. This is not to say that we have to treat them badly, but clearly women think differently from men, if they are not ashamed of wearing makeup, or being physically attracted to males.

I do not condone misogyny, but for me it is easy to see why you would not want to be friends with a woman. What male friend of yours wears high heels? How could you take seriously--as a friend--a thing which wears high heels and carries around a purse? Answer me this.

Narrow thinking. Sexual energy and attraction exists within most everyone. You dehumanize those who could potentially be interested in you?

You could have male friends deeply in the closet. You would cast them off if you found out one was attracted to men? Even in a scenario where you were not a secret object of same sex affection, you just know he's gay.

>Just because you have a bad relationship with your father, for instance, does not mean you will form a bad opinion of men in general
Of course not. You have it the wrong way round.

The point is that if your father -isn't- a complete bastard, you're unlikely to end up thinking all men are complete bastards, simply because you know at least one man isn't.

Yet there seem to be plenty of anons voicing similarly extreme views about women. Assuming they genuinely hold those views, it seems logical that they can never have encountered a woman they didn't hate.

Therefore they must have shitty relationships with their mother.

If it helps, just consider it logically:

A: I hate all women
B: I don't hate my mother

Both of these can't be true.

>> No.10601297

I would hone in on the relationship a person has to that attraction. If a person had attractions to men, that would not necessarily be grounds for casting them out of friendship. What would be grounds for it would be if they were not ashamed of those attractions, which most women are not. I could not be friends with a shameless person.

>>10601255
Then why aren't there at least an equal amount of man-hating anons who had shitty fathers and should therefore hate men? Or are you saying that all the anons here had good fathers (since they don't hate men) and horrible mothers (since they hate women, according to you)?

Que? You're still thinking of this backwards, despite me being as clear as I thought it was possible to be.

I'm NOT saying that the reason they are misogynists is because they had bad mothers.

I'm saying that their misogyny is (apparently) so extreme ("I hate all women") that logically they must hate their mothers, because mothers are obviously a subset of 'all women'. Anons who say "I hate all women" therefore either (a) don't really mean it, or (b) have a terrible relationship with their mothers.

I say absolutely nothing about the -cause- of their misogyny.

I'm also not talking about "all the anons here". No idea where you got that from. I'm an anon and my mother is pretty cool.

Incidentally, anons saying "I hate all men" would obviously be even weirder, since most of the anons here are men. They'd therefore need to hate themselves as well as their fathers and every other man. But that's by the by since I'm absolutely not asserting a causal relationship between (a) having a shit parent, and (b) hating all humans of that parent's gender.

That's not what I was concerned about. I was asking, how you -feel- putting on makeup everyday?

First, not all women are sirens, or harpies, like you suggest. The function of makeup is not as vulgar as your vulgar mind makes it sound.

But I don't blame you for your ignorance. Our media and modern news rackets have destroyed real femininity: the fine beauty of the mother and all her daintiness, loving, and fury. There is no place for it in modern society, and the sociopolitical reformations we have experienced over the past multiple centuries have done nothing but suppress it, to the point of near extinction.

Gone are the days when men and women were raised separately, and were raised strongly as opposites, and there were real men with real masculine integrity who desired real women with real feminine integrity. Democratized the entire affair has been, and what does that lead to? The utter consumption of the feminine by the masculine. We live in a hypermasculine society now. Women compete directly with men, and are forced to look down on their feminine traits, which prevent them from competing with men; men, meanwhile, have become lost in the bizarre ritual of chronic masturbation, with hardcore pornography fed to them on a daily basis, and have become increasingly homosexual as well, like yourself, because their constant self-absorption has consequently left them with a severe lack of integrity. This society we now live in, which fails to provide both men and women with the proper rites of passage that they used to experience, makes everyone overly exuberant about themselves, tyrannizing all forms of life in the process. Men don't want women anymore, they want other men. They don't respect femininity, they only respect themselves, masculinity, because they lack self-respect and project this onto a tyrannical mask that they wear. They are neurotic and they think all of life is war, not in the Heraclitean sense, but in a much more corrupt, diabolical, narcissistic sense.

The feminine was not always "lower" than the masculine: weaker, yes; but they used to be divided. In our society, strength and efficiency are all that count: the feminine is destined to die out in such a battlefield. And it is a tragedy. So much beauty has been lost.

Oh, your bloodline, eh? So this thought actually runs through your head: "What a great bloodline I have, much better than all the other bloodlines out there."

And this gives you pride? For what? Something you had nothing to do with? Your genes which you did not create? You are saying: I am proud of the product of my genes and their ability turn raw digested food into this fine specimen of flesh!

And this man you speak of, he's going to make your bloodline even better, and what a fine bloodline it will be, and all your future descendants will look upon themselves and think, what a great bloodline this is, and so forth?

Have you considered, -really- why you are so enamored with the human form? What is it, -really- that you see in it that strikes you so? Have you ever experienced the opposite? Have you ever looked at a foot and thought, "Well, that's really a strange looking thing, rather bizarre if you look at it for too long" or "Why am I enticed by woman's buttocks?

Evolutionary psychology and The Bible.

I will sum it up for you though. It's not women's fault that they are attracted to what they are. However their desire is largely (but not completely) plastic in the sense that they will be attracted to "top" men, regardless of what those men are qualitatively, as long as they occupy a high position in the hierarchy.

WHO occupies the high position in the hierarchy is however determined by men. Therefore if what we value as a society is money, commodities, and psychopathic individuals who are more likely to obtain those by ignoring moral convention, then that is our fault collectively as a society.

To normalize female behavior, men should take control of society and seek to normalize it. But most men are too busy sucking Cristiano Ronaldo's cock or cheering on psychopaths who transgress all virtue in order to achieve money and power. Because most men would quite enjoy being in that position themselves and like the American Dream, think that it's just a matter of time until they themselves achieve it.

Psychopats should be ostricized from society and all of its functions, their social value should be that of a worm. But because most of population today is rotten at the core, that will never happen. There is nobody who can ostracize anti-social behavior because nobody is interested in living a life of virtue anymore and those who are, are ironically themselves ostracized. So in our society there is no role for the "virtous sage" anymore which leaves nobody that would ward off degenerate behavior. There is no father-figure, no old man with wisdom, no priest, nobody who has the authority to say that some behavior is wrong. And the root of the problem lies in the rejection of God which has brought forth all of this.

Can we just be honest about how shallow nearly all women are? I mean they lack that perhaps slightly autistic drive to have a real passion or interest in something; well not all, I'm not try to be mean it makes me really depressed actually. Though I think they make up for it by how kind they are, and you know that means a lot to me, even little things like her crying during a movie really shows a sweet soft empathy and I just want to hold that or when they get all excited about pretty stupid stuff I love to see her eyes light up or how she walks differently in a good mood and acts all silly
Forgot where I was going with this, but if you hate all women that can only be indictative of projected self hate, really I understand, because they represent all your shortcomings or physical flaws, but then they bring into being from a look or the general futility of even talking to them. There is also a weird dynamic around sex and promiscuity that I feel as well and is all over this thread, that's harder to explain though, but it is interesting

Nice, you got the Virgin/Whore dichotomy! Dude, this is gonna well for you in the long run.

I'm not really the best guy to talk about women, never had a gf for instance, but if there's something I've learned is that deep down you (and I refer to all men with this) don't want an equal to "value" in the same way you would value another man, and if you do, then you don't want a traditional feminine woman.

Thing is, I don't know (and I don't think anyone knows yet) if men and women are socialized to be different or if it's a matter of biology, possibly it's a combination of both. When you realize that there are inherent differences, you need to understand that you have to value women, and people for that matter, in a perspective that allows them to be valued, otherwise you are set for disappointment and shortcomings when socializing. I've lived all my life around women, my father was distant and not a very emotionally supportive man, but in my sisters and mom I've seen forgiveness and a very warmful support to make me feel protected (which is bad in the long run, but not badly intentioned).

I'm a very emotionally shut-down individual for reasons not worth exploring, but I have to admire the level of emotionality that I've seen in women. It's something so hard to express naturally for me, because I'm always rationalizing everything I do, so spontaneity is like a feat of nature in my very academic and rational eyes. Even then, women have a very skillful touch to subtext in conversations, which I believe requires intellect. And I'd be a damn liar if they weren't good at teasing.

I'd say that the crisis arises when you want women to act like men and you set your value scale accordingly. Why would you do that? They could act like men and become your "equal", but then you would be looking for a man in a female body. If you want to learn to value women, you need to lower your guard and become a dull mere mortal that learns to value those stupid and vapid women with makeup and who are attracted to Chad. Intellectuality can only take you so far in life, but in order to appreciate all the aspects of the human experience you need to become a stupid boy that is willing to put effort into it.

Reading Nietzsche will.

>The perfect woman is a higher type of human being than the perfect man: also something much rarer.

>Everyone bears within him a picture of woman derived from his mother: it is this which determines whether, in his dealings with women, he respects them or despises them or is in general indifferent to them.

>For the male sickness of self-contempt the surest cure is to be loved by a clever woman.

>All society that does not elevate one draws one down, and conversely; that is why men usually sink a little when they take wives, while their wives are elevated a little. Men who are too intellectual have great need of marriage, though they resist it as they would a foul-tasting medicine.

>There are women who, however you may search them, prove to have no content but are purely masks. The man who associates with such almost spectral, necessarily unsatisfied beings is to be commiserated with, yet it is precisely they who are able to arouse the desire of the man most strongly: he seeks for her soul — and goes on seeking.

>In a state of hatred women are more dangerous than men; first and foremost because, once their hostility has been aroused, they are hampered by no considerations of fairness but allow their hatred to grow undisturbed to its ultimate consequences; then because they are practised in discovering the wounded places everyone, every party possesses and striking at them: to which end their dagger-pointed intellect renders them excellent service (whereas at the sight of wounds men become restrained and often inclined to reconciliation and generosity).

>It is perhaps no rare occurrence that noble-minded and aspiring people have to undergo their severest trials in their childhood: perhaps through having to assert themselves against a low-minded father absorbed in appearance and deception, or, like Lord Byron, to live in continual conflict with a childish and irritable mother. If one has experienced such a thing one will, one's whole life long, never get over the knowledge of who one's greatest and most dangerous foe has actually been.

etc. But Nietzsche is a philosopher, and if you miss this part, you will miss the intentions with which he writes. If you understand this and you read his works, you'll find he's incredibly therapeutic, especially today. He will rejuvenate your masculinity which will at once rejuvenate your love for femininity. Jung may also be a good read for this.
