    Men practice objectivity. Women practice subjectivity. And you aren’t even self aware to recognize you just did.

    You are unfit for public discourse,

    They are afraid of men, truth, responsibiilty, and adulthood as if they live in a fiction of pervasive trauma, instead of their own failure to mature in to competent adults.

    Perhaps you should try to understand the mind of others, when it is closer to you than the mind of the enemy which is not.
    You are not ‘correct’ in so much as you see part of the information and are judging yourself more fully competent than you are. OK?

    –“can we really have opposite-sex friends?”–
    Short answer: Yes, as long as you are both in secure relationships or you’ve been friends for a very long time.

    I’m a Man not a Guy. And I’m career Tech CEO and very minor public intellectual.
    I talk to all sorts of women I’m not at all attracted to or interested in, and would never be. (Although young women today are obviously almost univerally broken – so I avoid them.)
    I do spend business time in public with women. It’s a necessity. Especially employees, salespeople, vendors, customers, activists and almost anyone who wants to speak with me.
    I have generally had executive assistants I spend a lot of time with and value deeply. (Work WIfe).
    I do not spend ‘friendship’ time with women unless in public, and only for coffee, lunch, or dinner.
    I have generally had female friends who provide good advice. Women have a different perspective and I value them.
    I prefer to spend time with a woman I am friends with along with her significant other – and mine. I would never make any man uncomfortable in any way – it would be ‘wrong’.
    I suspect this is because I am gregarious and confident and am totally uninterested in any woman other than the one I’m married or almost married to. 😉
    I used to make use of the girl-gossip network in my companies because the admins know everything and a good relationship with them means they alert you to potential problems. And that provoked some odd suspicion I had more than professional interests.
    Every time its been suggested that I have an interest in a woman in the workplace (or out of it for that matter) it’s been false. And I’ve even taken the heat for a business partner that was ‘enjoying’ one of my assistants.
    It’s very very common for younger women to pursue older successful male execs, and while it’s sometiems flattering it’s largely annoying. 😉 I can’t believe some of the things women have said to me despite knowing I have a long term girlfriend, or am married. Not all women are timid.

    CLARIFICATION: Inner Vision, Inner Voice

    Inner vision. The ability to visualize: focus your attention on visual imagination. (The black head, and apple illustration by someone else in this thread)
    Inner voice: quite literally the ability to talk to yourself in your head.
    RE: terrifying: I mean the idea of it – not having inner vision or inner voice, both of which I run constantly and depend upon like my limbs – is just really disturbing to me. 😉
    Data: These numbers of 10% are probably old approximations, so let’s look at the citations:…..

    Inner Visualization (Aphantasia)
    Percentage: Estimates vary, but a source from CNBC in 2023 states that about 3% of people can’t create a mental picture in their heads1. Other sources suggest a range from 1% to 3%.
    Details: Aphantasia is the inability to visualize mental images. It’s a condition that’s still not fully understood, and the percentage of people affected could be higher due to lack of awareness.

    Inner Voice (Lack of Internal Monologue)
    Percentage: The data is somewhat inconsistent, but estimates suggest that 50-70% of people don’t have an internal monologue. Other studies indicate that inner dialogue is frequent for only 30 to 50 percent of people.
    Details: The absence of an internal monologue doesn’t mean a person lacks any form of internal thought. The way people experience their inner world can vary widely, and not having an internal monologue is not necessarily an indicator of any cognitive deficiency.

    “MEN SHOULD BE PROTECTING WOMEN – BUT FOR SOME REASON THEY”VE GIVEN UP”

    Women are irrational actors, live in imaginary and often magical world, but men are rational actors. We live in the real world, and the world we struggle to make real by our efforts.

    You tell men you hate them 24 hours a day, in every single way possible, and you wonder why entire generations are giving up on you en masse? You (collectively), are out of control, hyper-privileged, hyperconsumtive, irresponsible, selfish, neurotic, magical thinking, attention addicts with only about one percent of women tolerable enough for marriage and long term trust and investment, in a legal political and court system that is entirely for the benefit of women, and entirely at the expense of men, despite that women spend seventy percent of the money, incurr most of the debt, do so for selfish reasons, and consume seventy percdent of government services.

    So what is it precisely that the anti-enfranchisement men and women had wrong about women in commerc and government?

    It took a while. But it turns out – they had nothing wrong. And that surprised even those of us who were optimists.

    So now that you’ve destroyed dating, mating, relationships, the family, replacement reproduction, the education system, the legal system, and the government, and you’ve driven us to the bring of civil war between irresponsible urban and responsible rural, what do you think is going to happen? It’s happening. And if you are under 25 today there aren’t going to be children to pay for your health care, your social security, or to producde enough workers with enough global competitive advantage to ensure that you are other than living your life on the edge of poverty even more so than people are now.

    Youi’ve destroyed the very concept that democdracy is possible. And you’ve reversed the two thousand years we’ve spent, particularly the chivalric and victorian efforts to reframe women as virtous in stead of selfish trivial shallow vain harlots underminers gossips and shrills. Which is precisely why women were contained to the home and second class citizens or les until the industrial revolution gave teh promise of freedom to participate with equal responsibility to the private and common.

    Only to realize that the primary difference between the sexes is male proucition of and responsibilty for common comons and female selfish hyperconsumption and irresponsibility for commons. That’s what feels vs reals means.

    I”m out of the game at my age, but what’s occurring is obvoius cause and consequencde. All life equilibrates to satisfy the needs of sexes and ages and abilities, and the family was the first institution that produced a compromise exchange between the sexes, the ages, and the abilities.

    Women killed the family. Worse. THat was the INTENTION of the feminist movement. To destroy the family. Just as the leftist movement’s ambition is to destroy the family, the classes, the nobility and aristocracy, and reduce us all to children and peasantry.

    Cheers.
