Forget all that alpha male, beta talk..
That stuff is designed to make you weak, the newest generation is full of that defeated talk.
You're right of course this more stuff I need to unlearn. Truth be told I hate the generation I'm a part of.
But pie is so much better than the cake that some have in their pipesI would recommend stop smoking a pie and smoke a pipe instead
For once, I absolutely agree with you without reservation. The assault on male identity is almost nuclear.
As you should, repeat after me
hard times make strong men
strong men make good times
good times make weak men
weak men make hard times
we are at the “weak amen make hard times “ part…
Ironically I started a new devotional today titled Act Like Men.
I maintain that male behavior, interests, and preferences are NOT toxic. Being a jerk, male or female, is clearly being a jerk. However, there is nothing inherently toxic about being a male. This includes our interests in competition, primacy, and the ability to focus on anything in an extremely singular manner. No two men are exactly alike, but being, enjoying, and comfortable living as traditional man is normal and healthy. No apologies are necessary.
My son and I were having a discussion back when he entered collage. He told me his professors encouraged the men in the class to check out the crying room on campus. He asked me what I thought about it. My response was that, yes, a man can certainly cry, but he should limit those occasions. If his mother died, or his dog got hit by a car, but all means cry. But if his choice in political candidate lost an election or some bill was passed that he disagreed with, knock off the crying. Instead, go out and "do". When the going gets tough, no man's wife is comforted watching her husband break down and cry. She expects him to rise to action and get the family out of danger. If afterwards, you need to cry, find a quiet place away from everyone and go to town.
100,000 plus years of evolution have programed and designed men to do what is required to protect and preserve their families when the going gets tough. Of course we want men to be more empathetic and demonstrative, but I would argue that in many ways, they demonstrate these traits already by their actions. Not always, and there are exceptions, and by all means men can reject everything I just stated if they choose, but attacking men for being males and acting as males is destructive. To be clear, I am not talking about behaviors that are just crass, rude, and insensitive. As I stated earlier, being a jerk is not being a man. It's just being a jerk. Going after men for inherently embracing traditional male traits is wrong.

That's been going on for quite a while, but now it's also female identity that's being assaulted. And beyond that, it's human identity that is the real target imo. It's ultimately about the transhumanist agenda.
These are all aspects of an attack on judeo-christian beliefs in the dignity and value of man as a child of God and they all derive from the original rejection to serve the plan.
Well that's true and buckle up cuz the 2020s ain't done yet. You have to be a blind man not to see the shit storm that coming.
gives a lot of practice with good draw
love how most "alpha"s i have met live pathetic lives and claim it's everyone elses fault for not respecting their natural leadership. You know not even realizing that their contradicting their own premise. Or that life is situational and what is happening dictates who to listen too. I.e. Don't go to a mechanic for your cough and don't ask your doctor about your car. Better to find what you are good at then measure against someone elses life.
Along with moisture and packing pressure.
And to believe everything that you see, hear, or read. Always question the answers.
Those are "wanna be" Alphas. True Alphas simply are what they are because the lessor members devolved authority to them, recognizing the inbred power. The chosen simply accept, knowing they can do the job, accepting the authority and the responsibilities. And, when a proper challenger appears, in some societies simply step aside and disappear or, contest.
Me too. I've certainly had to unlearn some things.
