I have learned through the years you must be very direct with a man.
That doesn’t mean being disrespectful or rude.
I once had it described as guys mind is like a set of boxes. They have a box open and they are working on that box. That is good, a man needs focus.
We are like a browser with 25 tabs open, flitting from one to another. That is not a bad thing, we are wired that way so we are thinking about the gas gauge, soccer practice and dinner all at the same time.
If we need them to pay attention to another box we have to get their attention.
May your marriage have peace and joy.

PUBLIC DUELS BETWEEN SEXES PROVIDE PSYCHOLOGICAL RELEASE
—“The man fights while in a hole and the woman gets a weapon as a handicap for a fair duel. I imagine the comedic value alone of such an event was often enough to diffuse a situation lol”—John Papadopoulos
The truth of this statement, regarding pitting, dunking, stocks, and hangings, can’t be overstated. Public exorcism of frustrations is about as good as it gets for humans.

These are beings with a consciousness. They experience pleasure and pain, bond with their young & pursue their own purposes, even if they are simple purposes such as seeking food”— via Quillette
Let’s avoid conflating sentience, awareness, and the consciousness spectrum – and prevent overreach. These things are our food. Not abusing them and not eating them are two different things. And the reason not to abuse them is that we don’t want such people in our midst.

Secondly, pejoratively, the female nervous system evolved to carry a cognitive load that included empathy with offspring. Just as when men aren’t supplied with competition they behave dysfunctionally, when women aren’t supplied with emotional load they find “strange obsessions”.
Vegetarianism, like animal activism, political activism, or gossiping and undermining, is among the strange obsessions that women devote their cognitive demand for emotional load to in the absence of more constructive outputs (children). The problem is there is no check on women.
There are many checks on men’s antisocial behavior in fulfillment of demand for cognitive load – although sports, and video games are wasteful they aren’t harmful, and business and the arts are constructive. There are no such checks on women’s behavior.—“The libertarian case for veganism: Sentience extends to cows, chicken, pigs & even fish. These are beings with a consciousness.

—“I think some of the people who identified as right wing libertarians assumed the libertarian ideology was about reciprocity (at least thats what i thought), but realized some point after Ron Paul’s campaign that it wasn’t the case. Libertarianism just doesn’t give you all the tools you need to resolve western civilization’s current threats. Ironically enough, it doesn’t even give you the tools you need to build a model “libertarian” society, so the ideology is self refuting.”–Jacob Liam Youngman
—“Notes on religion from “Willpower” by Roy F. Baumeister
(Willpower Stabilized/Sense of Place)
“Less obvious benefits included the finding that religion reduces people’s inner conflicts among different goals and values.”
(Practice Habit-Forming)
“Religious believers build self-control by regularly forcing themselves to interrupt their daily routines in order to pray.”
(External Accountability/Internal Consistency)
“Religious people tend to feel that someone important is watching them. That monitor might be God, a supernatural being who pays attention to what you do and think, often even knowing your innermost thoughts and reasons, and can’t be easily fooled if you do something apparently good for the wrong reason.”—Todd E. Magnusson

Mindfulness. This is a neurological necessity. The fact that we are infinitely adaptive does not mean that we not infinitely stressed by infinite adaptation. The stoic method with Epicurean objectives achieves this best.
—“ritual”—
yes. continuous programming of stable state despite continuous exposure to life. Stoic ritual is superior.
–” that someone important is watching them”–
Yes. Again, stoic ritual, casts that person as ‘you’, giving you agency and knowledge of it.
The general argument so far is that ritual religion of slaves is necessary for the bottom, that stoicism an epicureanism for the middle, and stoicism and aryanism for the top.

The ability to use reciprocity, commons, and agency to rule out all other versions of ethics as self contradictory takes separating fact from value to another level.
Separating emotional loading from operations at that deep of a level is a super power.
