> > When the elderly Schopenhauer sat for a sculpture portrait by the Prussian sculptor Elisabet Ney in 1859, he was much impressed by the young woman's wit and independence, as well as by her skill as a visual artist.[218] After his time with Ney, he told Richard Wagner's friend Malwida von Meysenbug: "I have not yet spoken my last word about women. I believe that if a woman succeeds in withdrawing from the mass, or rather raising herself above the mass, she grows ceaselessly and more than a man."[219]

Schopenhauer might be the most arrogant of all the German philosophers.

both are unironically correct. incels are right that virutally all women are whores and radfems are right that virtually all men are sexual predators.

Has my hero been a lie?

But for real though, this sounds right. That's why I think most influential/talented people are men, it's the lack of access to easy love and validation from society that makes them isolate and hyperfocus on their craft. But men are forced to by society, women will never feel this same pressure and definitely won't opt for it when they can coast through life receiving endless social and financial opportunities just for having a whole.

He also wrote somewhere "Obit anus, abit onus"
The old woman dies, the debt is lifted
He owed her a stipend until then for pushing her down a flight of fucking stairs. Not very compassionate towards a fellow sufferer Schopey (not that I am anything other than completely contradictory)

Doesn't it have more of a connection to he act of giving birth? Men are naturally sterile, they cannot give birth to their own blood, so the need to create is compensated by the way of culture, they give birth in work.
