CCV
Niceness of Behaviour in Women, is only a Dress or Paint, which they use, the better to set off their Beauty.

CCVI
Womens Vertue is frequently nothing, but a Regard to their own Quiet, and a Tenderness for their Reputation.

CCLXXVII
Women often fancy themselves in Love, when there is no such matter. The Diversion of an Amour, the little Commotions that an Intrigue raises in their Breasts ; the natural Inclination to be Courted, and the Trouble of denying, makes them fancy that what they feel is Passion ; when, in Truth, it is nothing but a coquet Humour.

CCCXXXIV
Women can more easily conquer their Passion than their Affectation.

CCCXL
Most Womens Wit tends more to the improving their Folly, than their Reason.

CCCXLVI
Women never can have any such thing as strict Rules in their Mind and Disposition, if their Constitution be but consenting.

CCCLXVII
The generality of honest Women are like hid Treasures, which are safe, only because no body hath sought after them.

CCCCV
Coquets pretend to be jealous of their Lovers, to conceal their Envy of other Women.

CCCCXXIX
Women in Love can sooner forgive great Indiscretions, than small Infidelities.

CCCCLXXIII
At first Women love their Lover, but afterwards they love the Passion it self.

CCCCLXXVI
Few Womens Worth lasts longer than their Beauty.

D
It signifies little for Women to be young, except they be Handsom, nor Handsom, except they be young.

DCCLVII
Most Women mourn the Loss of a Lover, not so much to shew how they loved before, as to gain the Reputation of deserving to be loved again.

>now people will accuse
Why would you care about that? Anyone who uses the term "incel" unironically is just a woman or some oversocialized bug. It would have been very hypocritical for Schopenhauer to conceal the truth about women because their nature is one of the primary arguments for self-sufficient solitude as the optimal life path.

I listen to an audiobook of Schopenhauer's on Women in the gym at least once a week. I get a great pump, and it is a valuable reminder that no matter how flirty or fun they might try to present, it is all dissimulation.

Also, if you are not yet at the point where you are over women, you can use his advice on women to get laid rather easily. They are 'big children' and if you treat them like that, they will fall for you far more than if you treat them like equals (without prejudice to the requirement that you are attractive)

If you're not an incel you're not a pessimist. All pessimism is linked to man's knowledge of woman

>> No.22371690

>>22371689
It's also why you'll never find a genuine female pessimist. Pessimism is completely foreign to the female psyche, because it would require existential memory and a soul which transcends the flux of materiality. Women are fundamentally incapable of rising above the flux of pleasure and pain to see how the tide works. This is why Buddha said that it's impossible for a woman to ever become fully enlightened. At best they can prepare themselves for a more auspicious birth in the next life.

Well considering that Until 1974, women in the U.S. could not apply for and own a credit card in her own name, and that only 10% of women had jobs in 1840, that women were legal properties in the 1700s and couldnt control her earnings, then yeah it makes sense that women were supposed to spend the mans money when they couldnt really get it themselves.

What about the outliers? A woman that doesn't get along with other women, other women immediately dislike and distrust her, has niche hobbies, an odd personality, and has schizophrenia. She is, as you say, not like other girls. I'm talking about a real woman before you jump to any conclusions.

Where did I say that men weren't vain? My post said nothing about vanity. Vanity is often a symbol of a higher form of being, women's vanity is transient and insubstantial. In fact it's hard to even call a woman vain because that would be attributing too much personality to her.
