A good voice is incredibly attractive to me. I think it is the thing that first attracted me to my husband. I didn’t know what he looked like; he just had a “sexy” voice. It wasn’t particularly deep. It was just mesmerizing to me. A person’s voice conveys a lot about personality and demeanor. My [...]

Bb wrote a great post on the three l’s a girl can do to be attractive. SayWhaat commented that she already does those things, but still can’t seem to get a guy into a relationship. She blames this on her lack of relationship experience, and I responded: Lack of relationship experience doesn’t matter. Lack of [...]

If you really want equality between the sexes, you have to make it truly equitable. Right now the laws regarding marriage and divorce are not, in most cases. The men’s rights folks in the manosphere may be unpleasant to listen to, but they speak about harsh reality on the ground, and smart women would do [...]

Some people are pro-love in the same way drug addicts are pro-drug. New love produces the same cocktail of neurochemicals as potent drugs, and those players keep seeking the next new high from “love.” In these cases, “love” is more about seeking their own pleasure than truly loving and giving to another person.

They did, but according to history the palace eunuchs had helped play consorts and empress clans against each other, [...]

That is why I am on forums and blogs, to talk with different people and get exposure to different people and ideas. I also read blogs that feature the latest cultural happenings in China, as I feel that it’s [...]

My husband doesn’t think about relationship game much at all. His mind is usually elsewhere. He researches politics, education, history, science, spirituality, and other obscure information. For work he programs in a mathematical language to do highly technical analysis, and he thinks about that, too. I like hearing about the stuff he’s interested in, but [...]

In every culture there are those who see through the veil. It used to be very rare. Now, with the Internet and decentralized communication, more and more people are becoming aware. But it’s those who want to be aware, who seek knowledge, who long for truth, that really receive these messages. And to begin to [...]

Badger has an interesting post about the “alpha-beta paradigm.” I’ve posted on this subject before, and in that post I said the distinction was simplistic. I still think so, but I’ve come to accept the concepts as useful. I like what Athol Kay has written about alpha and beta as coexisting and orthogonal traits. I [...]

Follow the trail of money. Where does it flow? Humans are egoistic, status-oriented creatures. Women buy things to denote higher status among female peer groups, and they want high-status men. Men, in turn, buy things to denote higher status, to impress women and compete for status among men. The markets want the general population to [...]
