no but you see this is good because young men expecting to have sex with young women (to say nothing of the opposite) even in the confines of a marriage is bad


imagine having sex with women that are actually young, couldn't be me, i hagmax like Ben Franklin


if we could we'd push age of marriage up to 40, 50, 60 because they'd be more mature then and more cognizant of the risks, that would be good


especially because most of us are already unhappily married and we want to help our kids avoid that, but we have no idea how to do that so we just tell them to delay it and they trust us, dumb fucks


imagine marriage was an important part of living life, and imagine that you'd ever want to maximize the amount of fulfilling life time you (or others) will get

I've seen video evidence- this is absolutely an epidemic, especially among step-siblings.


Though realistically, and as always, this is only really a problem if the two have a bad relationship or one (or the other) has poor impulse control, and that's going to create other issues beyond the fucking.  (If they have a better relationship with each other they might try it, if they have a better relationship with the parent they'll tend to accept being talked out of it, both problems fully solvable by public health education efforts.  Naturally opposed by people with [an assumption of]/[excuse that it'll exacerbate] poor impulse control.)


Some people (trads/progs) believe is a risk magically created by porn, but it's mostly just exacerbated by it if you already have it.  Kind of like alcoholism, actually.  But when your power (or rather, your justification for excessive risk aversion- kids grow out of this when they become adults, popularly referred to as the "teenage years") comes from not understanding that, well...

Because everything is supposed to be about women.




Which itself is an understandable liability if you're coming from 'everything is supposed to be about marriage' and have no mechanism beyond the inherent constraints of pre-mechanized civilization to grant value to men (who are the gender made to combat them).  And that degraded over a few generations rather than all at once (and hidden because the generation in power was granted a reprieve from this due to WW2), so no decisive reckoning happened, like a divorce that occurs over 20 years for the sake of the kids.


The problem with being yoked to first century sexual mores is that it's not the first century any more, and part of the reason reconciliation can't be sold to women (or their simps) is that the traditionalist response tends to be some variation of "well, just make it the first century again, then all your problems will be solved" (and the liberal and progressive reaction to that is flat rejection, which is correct).


The degree to which solutions lack theory of mind remains interesting to me.  For instance, if you're fighting "rates of female education attainment lead to later fewer marriages", the correct answer is "credentialism sucks the life out of everyone" and not "well, stop educating women exclusively then lol".

'oh shit is he a threat to his sister' than anything about female solidarity.




They're the same picture, and I can assure you that this reaction happens even in porn-free households.

Yes, the reaction is equivalent to how the highly progressive mothers react to these sorts of things, because they're both in complete agreement that man bad, woman good.  (One might even say that the highly religious father is the exact spear counterpart.)


It's really not any more complicated than that.  You just get butthurt you can't control sex because that's what your primate brain tells you is important, so out come the rationalizations.  Oh no, a female leg, so scandalous.

The US is the only place where I've seen this strange obsession with statutory rape.




Yes, because it's a moral panic and not real (that's why they have to add the extra word at the front).  Puritans and Californicators tend to be given to those things, and the Anglosphere (who grows up on a constant diet of cultural slop from those places) simply follows along, though admittedly most of the people who obsess over it have the same ancestry and so it's just an HBD thing.

The worst period of the Great Depression had a higher fertility rate than today.




I actually don't believe this proves much as the number would imply.  Yes, TFR was 2.1, but the country was also far more rural at the time and mechanization hadn't quite replaced the child as unit of labor on farms yet.


If you assume rural families (50% of the country at the time) were still having 3.0 kids for that reason, that necessarily means urban areas were at 1.0, which is above modern South Korea but below the rest of the modern West.

The tipping point was around 2012.  As you'll recall, that was when MS decided it'd be a great idea to trash the desktop UX in favor of a tablet UX everywhere, no matter whether or not it made sense on that device.


And they actually did have a bit of a point there- if you made it optional, you'd just end up with another Windows Media Center that nobody used, and what better way to force people to develop applications in WinRT?  There were significant benefits to doing so, too- mainly around sandboxing, though the problem there was that it made interacting with the rest of the computer an absurd hassle.  The original cheaper Surface RT tablet was made to push this too, and while an interesting piece of kit, it was also basically worthless beyond the fact it had an ARM-compiled version of Office on it.


They judged, correctly, that doing so wouldn't affect sales.  And sure, the iPad wasn't as destructive to them as they had feared (which indeed was a reasonable fear at the time- that people buying iPads would then proceed to eschew real computers entirely), but they've also never had an incentive to go back and properly fix what they broke.  And every version of Windows since has gone on to expose more of the rotten/unfinished foundation (and will likely continue along that path until Explorer is 100% React, takes 0.5s to respond to any button presses, require 16GB of RAM, and has to restart at least once a day because it gets overloaded like Firefox does when you watch too many YouTube videos).


The other problem is that there's no real need for MS to write a new OS any more.  Windows NT remains the gold standard for an OS (Unix was 20 years out of date in 1995, and the only reason it's still around is because you would be provided the source to build whatever you wanted) but after everything that made it the way it is has migrated to Azure and everyone just accesses your code through some flavor of web browser, what's the point of rebuilding it?

This is just what 10 years of no QA department and any new development being considered a cost center does to you.


I can't switch out from Windows because the window management behavior hasn't been destroyed yet.  KDE has stupid defaults and limits which made window snapping flat out not work on high-resolution screens, so it was an instant non-starter (sure, I could go and edit the config... until it gets erased or moved in the next update, then you have to chase the setting down again).  And GNOME is just worse OS X.


It's fortunate that StartAllBack exists to fix the menu (and a couple of Explorer issues that I just haven't noticed are likely alleviated by this software as well); I've just accepted that I need to pay to fix issues now just like Mac users generally have to add things Apple refuses to implement (famously, window-snapping).

That's odd; I thought all carbonated beverages were supportive of Palestine due to the gazafication step inherent in the process.


It's very difficult to tell a Jew cola from a Muslim cola, though.  That's why I prefer Gentile drinks, and you can easily tell which is which- if there's another seal you have to remove before exposing the cap (which may itself have a hole in it), it's definitely a Gentile drink, where the Jew and Muslim drinks never add that.  Powerade and those marble sodas are the two best examples.

a scope for a hunting rifle




This is more a problem with US exporters not bothering to keep up to date on ITAR reforms (there have been a few that reclassified most of the stuff into a much laxer category) than anything else, though.


Perhaps something an AI could solve for them, but their market is large enough that they don't have to care.

Conservatives are less neurotic than liberals




Remember that, because Haidt's a Boomer, he's locked into Boomer paradigms where the [faction where the moral majority dominated due to that disgust reflex] called itself "conservatives", because for the majority of his life that was the case.  It ignores what we now know, that progressives [who are what "conservatives" used to be] and classic liberals are different.


This is also why the left/right paradigm is broken, and will remain so for the next 20 years simply because the median voter still uses paradigms common to Haidt's time, because they are of a similar age.

There are plenty of non-coercive policy options for promoting eugenic pairings.




That doesn't matter, though, because nearly all of them ultimately lead back to the "male oppressors incentivizing -> suggesting -> forcing me to do my job do the thing that requires I be dependent on a man" thing.


The only policy that will work is to valorize and protect those who do their job, but you can only have that in societies that are allowed to accept their own right to rule.  (Which is why women reflexively oppose any social movement that suggests this; after all, according to the stereotype, all social turmoil ever comes from the cardinal sin of ever permitting a man to think he can do something right.)

Ah, but the only reason they do that is to protect female class interests when the law has to be symmetric for some reason (women want it to be illegal to fuck young women more than they want the right to fuck young men [which affects a rounding error number of women, and the women who do engage in this are the pick-me-est of pick-mes so they're also hated by women in general]).


Eugenics is different, since the median woman assumes it'll affect who the median woman has babies with.

under the impression it was an open secret




Not according to the demographic most likely to take it seriously (which conversely Just So Happens to be the demographic that suffers from SIDS the least frequently), who are likely to try and spend resources preventing it.




Plus, not many people want to be a big meanie and ask too many difficult questions to a parent (especially a mother) who just lost a baby




Beyond very obvious depraved-heart stuff like "gave birth in a bathroom and left the baby in the toilet" I think it's good such questions not be asked.  If they were, we'd only be prosecuting it if the mother was white, as a natural extension of who over-zealous CPS reporting is most likely to affect now.

I appreciate the fan theory that Connery's character in The Rock is fully intended to be "what if Connery Bond, but captured by the US for 30 years?".


I don't feel the same amount of grief, though, since the series is hit or miss- for each Bond that actually got 4-5 movies, 2-3 of them are good, and the others are a bit more forgettable.


I think the casting decisions made for each Bond were on their own pretty good.  I can't actually picture Connery in Moonraker or Man with the Golden Gun, for instance; Brosnan belongs in the Brosnan movies, and so on.  This applies especially to the Craig movies; he's just not the man the others are, so it wouldn't make sense for any of the others to portray him (except Dalton, I guess, since the cutting edge being 'a more vulnerable Bond' popped up in the 80s too).

The oppression is already here.  Men and women aren't allowed to agree on the rules of engagement, you aren't permitted a place to raise your kid without paying ruinous costs in rent because building is illegal, the list goes on.


Just because it doesn't on its face look like what Boomers (or prior generations) told you oppression would look like, and just because you can still technically bear it, doesn't mean it isn't oppression.

if we defined "economic violence" equally broadly then it wouldn't need to be a robbery - a shoplifter pushing past a security guard would qualify.




Honestly, why shouldn't we define "economic violence" that way?


Stealing sexual value is to women like stealing economic value is to men (for control over that is what that sex uses to impress the other), so a regime that treated men and women equally should logically treat both just as seriously.

Female sexuality should not be looked at thru a rationalist brain.




Why not?  It's just the mirror image of stuff men do that women haven't correctly communicated when to and not to do, like that whole "take them seriously but not literally, also ignore half the things she says because that's how the emotional spam filter works [and the 'attractive self-respect' thing comes from the 'doesn't respond to every emotional outburst about X']" thing.


It's not a direct counterpart, but men and women are different and start from initial conditions (inherent scarcity, etc.), so it's going to be expressed differently.  Men (especially straight ones- it gets complicated when they're not) don't really have the circuitry to appreciate why you'd want a Cluster B werewolf billionaire, so it's difficult to know when to act like one (re: PUA, which as I understand it sums up to 'treat them like they're in a porno'; women will do the same thing to men sometimes, but less often because it's [socially] costlier for women to do that).

According to research, globally, sex workers have a 45% to 75% chance of experiencing sexual violence on the job




That's one hell of an error bar, so the research is garbage.




many previous & current progressive movements




Repeat after me: progressives are not liberals.  I get that it's very confusing, especially if you're in certain bubbles that made much hay claiming they were the same (because in large degree the marriage of convenience between the two was still running at the time).  The difference is that liberals actually like sex and aren't turbo-butthurt about its existence, while progressives are existentially threatened by anyone else but them controlling sex and sexual expression (because it is all the value they offer- that's part of why they're so attached to education as an alternate path).  Needless to say this is mostly a thing with female progressives; the men might parrot it but they don't truly understand it (the ones that do tend to be traditionalists, which is just progressivism with the opposite gender valence).




I struggle to see how these individuals may square this perspective that sex work is valid, despite fitting the bill of objectification.




The clue is that progressives tend to believe it should be legal to sell sex, but illegal to buy it, which takes the price of sex up to infinity.  Any sex (or sexual expression) that occurs must be maximally monetized, or it's offering an alternative to that monopoly.


This is why progressives get extremely angry about older men dating younger women: the motte cope is "she's being taken advantage of", the bailey truth is "she's getting more money for the sex than I ever would, which drives the price I can get for my sex down".

When women say the existence of something "devalues sex", they're being literal because it actually does.




So it's not the sexual objectification they're objecting to, it's getting around the fee they feel is due.  Sexual labor (which for women is "being observed while sexually desirable") without pay.  Progressives don't like sex work because it makes that fee legible, which is a threat; its legality is generally a compromise they struck with the liberals in the original anti-traditionalist compact.  They do reserve the right to play at sexual labor, though, which is how they justify to themselves having made that deal, and is also why they don't really have much problem with non-straight sex (it's orthogonal to the market).


Which is why it's also important to identify what kind of feminist you're dealing with- some are just happy not to be under traditionalism (and will deploy patriarchy and equality arguments to that end- that's who they originally came from, and still have some truth to them), while others are trying to impose a matriarchy instead (and generally using the descriptive liberal arguments as prescriptive weapons).

People use the term "predator" indistinguishably from "men" (and "straight" and "white", to a lesser degree).  Again, no evolved memetic defense system against this; it was reality that kept this from getting out of control.  Kind of like how in US politics you get extreme rhetoric but the Constitution prevents it from getting too out of hand.


Now that reality no longer gives men that advantage, you get both barrels, it's that simple.  Of course there are a few societies that can avoid this, so you find things that seem strange to Western ears where women defend certain extremes of male sexuality (re: female politicians defending loli), but they also aren't Western, and they still can't reproduce above replacement.

Perhaps, then, that's a part of why the ingroup vs. outgroup behaviors really evolved: if you have one ingroup and 5 outgroup tied to the track, you can sleep easy not pulling the lever specifically because they are your outgroup.  Remember, humanity didn't even invent 'love your enemies'-style accountability, and even that's pretty vague in terms of what you're actually required to do there.


Most of the equivocation about this topic mostly comes down to the fact that in this situation, and in psychologically-normal human beings (the sociopaths are going to sleep easy regardless), a justification will be found to either pull or not pull the lever, because the decision must be made.
