I was an Aspie nerd in an abusive father’s household – dealing with the resulting social challenges. But I had a saint of a mother, friends, a car, girlfriends, participated in school plays and worked so I had money – and through most of it I was in fist-fights on a weekly if not daily basis – too often with farm kids. And as a result I outperformed everyone from my high school regardless of year by a wide margin in life. Sure, in the 60s and 70s we got picked on. But we ‘adapted’ by hardening – meaning we grew up. It’s the 90’s forward woke revolution – a revolution imposed by women in education, business, academy, and politics – that made men weak. So why aren’t men and women growing up? 😉
Taleb was right about at least two things, one of which is that stresses that don’t break you are good for you. Who, both individually as a group, and as groups, movements, occupations, and institutions is infantilizing men and women. It’s not men.
