I enjoy reading first person diatribes from leftists, describing how they view the world. Case in point:
There’s a whole host of sexist shit grounded in the notion that a man’s role is to protect women. From those blokes who pull out women’s chairs for them on First Dates to that joke my dad always tells about polishing his gun when I bring home a boyfriend, the idea of man as the noble protector is a patriarchal trope as old and tired as Arsene Wenger’s “I didn’t see it” excuse. It’s founded on one laughable assumption: that women are weak and fragile beings in need of safeguarding by strong menfolk…
The prevalent and pervasive notion of female frailty takes on a physical manifestation in the type of bodies we assign as ‘feminine’ and those we code as ‘masculine’. The ideal woman is gentle and slight, defined by comparison to the hunk of hegemonic masculinity that exists to protect her. Female strength is scary, because it challenges the notion that women need men to protect them. Once you remove that dependency, you take away some of the power men have as the natural leaders, protectors, and owners of women…
I found Daisy, an old school friend who I knew battled with an eating disorder for most of her formative years. I had started pounding non-prescription laxatives around the same age, so between starving ourselves and exercising obsessively, we had a lot in common. Hence my surprise when I came across videos of Daisy squatting 120kg and showing an incredibly built body on her Instagram.
When I asked what prompted such a huge change, she told me that weightlifting had “completely cured her” by teaching her to relish getting bigger because it meant she was becoming stronger. In fostering a body type that diverges from the ideal of fragile femininity, Daisy told me she felt “empowered” through realising her own strength; this started to emerge as a theme throughout my conversations with women who are heavily involved in the kinds of sports that build ‘unfeminine’ figures.
The rest of the article is more of the same interesting theme. r-selected women are in psychological pain while trying to follow the K-model of appearing attractive in hopes of snaring a long term mate/husband, but suddenly find their peace in life when they give that up to aggressively compete, build up their muscle, and then simply bang whoever comes along on the relationship front.
Obviously if the world they had grown up in had more threat, she would begin with the assumption that a woman needs a man to be really protected. The baddest-ass girl I knew was a blackbelt in Kyokoshin and a Judoka who was built like the athletes pictured in the article, and she could have easily been killed by an average man with two weeks of high school wrestling under his belt. She was so incapable physically by comparison that guys paired off with her in training viewed their time spent with her as a waste for them. Women, even highly trained athletes, lack fundamental issues of mechanics and balance, which puts them at a great disadvantage out of the gate against men.
Feminism can only survive in the r-selected environment. Once violent encounters end in death women will quickly begin competing by trying to find and woo the man who will best keep them, and their children alive.
Until then, we will be entertained by manly little fuck-bunnies, who are bent on showing everyone how they can keep up with the boys.
Tell others about r/K Theory, because the Apocalypse will clear up all the confusion
