0103 - Woman Learns (Live) Men & Women Are Not The Same

This cast will discuss female nature, why men must understand it, and how women view men that comprehend female nature. Inspired by a female viewer, this is her email pasted below... Dear Richard, I am a 32-year-old woman, I read your book, and I appreciate everything you are doing to help men all over the world. I'd also like to better understand how you view women. It feels to me like you view them (us) as perpetually immature beings compared to men. You call women solipsistic and define solipsism as "can't see past her own nose." You say that the company of women without sex is not interesting to you because you have so little in common. You think you'd get better company from a dog. You think women don't care about a man's struggles and don't have the capacity for true loyalty. If all that is right, what's another word to describe this? This lack of character, integrity, empathy, capacity for personal autonomy or growth? I don't think you see women as psychopaths. So, I think "perpetually immature" might be a good term, with the female version of a (sort of) "maturation" as submission to a man. And what about men? You and Rollo have this video about these four dorky guys in a poly relationship, and you say that you can turn them into men in no time. But you don't think women can take ownership of their lives, other than submitting to men? Or only take ownership in as far as learning to service men better, but what about building character? Ultimately, I'm asking you whether you think women are capable of pursuing and achieving integrity over the course of their lives, the way men can? And if you don't think they can, what sense of meaning could they get from their lives? What sense of meaning would I get from mine, if everything I think you believe about women were true about me? And what would that even look like or feel like? I don't tend toward a victim mindset, unless perhaps I was in really tragic conditions. So, either I have a moral need to pursue integrity, which I do, or I am very immature, which I no longer am, or I am a psychopath, which I never was. Yes, I am just talking about me right now, but can't the world be full of women who feel and think and behave the same way? Do you understand the question I am asking you? I think you see men as having endless potential, moral and otherwise, but women as these sorts of caricatures of real people. They may claim to be moral, but with a shallow self-righteousness that's based on momentary emotions. That are just mindlessly living out their evolutionary programming, like talking, walking, bigger-breasted chimpanzees. Is that how you view them (us)? Love, Irene
