The cervix and rape

tl;dr: Legalize rape. Ban fornication. Old Testament got it right. It is often said, and it is largely true, that women cannot get pregnant by rape. Of course they can get pregnant as a result of someone having sex with them while holding a knife to their throat while they scream and weep and struggle and protest, but unlikely to get pregnant unless they rather enjoyed the knife and the …

Power laws in polygyny

When we read that only one man in three reproduced, we tend to imagine two thirds of the men in an underclass detached from society, enslaved, killed, or driven out, and one third of the men forming society, with three wives each. Or you could have two thirds killed in war and the survivors get the booty. And similarly, if only one man in seventeen … But obviously it is …

Female Sexuality

Promoting a great comment by “John” from my previous post “Roissy is correct” “20 yo women who were consciously expecting to spend 10 years getting laid by a variety of studs before even thinking about selecting a father for their child” This is the true market shift. Women today are allowed to do what they want, so they maximize the benefit derived from having a hot young female body. This …

Sex and natural law

When it comes to ordinary crime, for example mugging and burglary, natural law is obvious: What is crime? Crime is bad actions that are apt to be met by physical violence, socially approved physical violence. What is law? Law is social approval for violence against certain kinds of bad actions. If you see a conflict between someone who is mugged, and someone who is mugging, you will naturally support the …

The reason that women need to be subordinated for successful reproduction

Examining difference in fertility, it is clear that fertility is primarily controlled by female status relative to their husbands.  The more women are subordinated, the higher the fertility.  Japan is a good test case.  Not only did fertility dramatically drop when General McArthur emancipated women, but in feudal Japan, fertility among high status families was below replacement when women were high status, indicated by upward mobility and room at the …

The false life plan

Men and women are happiest if successfully performing their traditional roles. This is to be expected, since whites and east asians, the descendents of civilizations, are descended from those that did perform their traditional roles. The Cathedral, however, presents girls, in school and on television, with a false life plan: That they will follow the same path as males, and marriage and family will just spontaneously happen while they are …

Dysgenic fertility

Chateau Heartiste, always a great source for the Dark Enlightenment, reports: Convicted criminal offenders had more children than individuals never convicted of a criminal offense. Criminal offenders also had more reproductive partners, were less often married, more likely to get remarried if ever married, and had more often contracted a sexually transmitted disease than non-offenders. Importantly, the increased reproductive success of criminals was explained by a fertility increase from having …

Why women need to kept on leashes

A software company just went bust.  Happens a lot.  That a woman happened to be running this company is not significant.  Lots of men have lost lots of other people’s money too.  What is significant is that she starts off her explanation of how she pissed away all her investor’s money by talking about her sex life. She begins: Something wasn’t right, and I couldn’t put my finger on exactly what …

Why gay marriage is not

Why Gay Marriage is not One of the gay couple had a son by artificial insemination, the couple adopted the child, became poster boys for Gay Marriage “Two Dads are Better Than One”, and proceeded to use him sexually, and rent him out to their friends. Now someone will say “Not All Gays are Like That”, but all the gays I know are like that, and when the progressive media …

Marriage, supply and demand

The old deal, legally enforced before 1857, and socially enforced before 1960, was that a man got: The role of head of household. Marriage for life. Not to be denied sex by his wife. A bride who gives him her youth, virginity, and submission. This gave all males a powerful incentive to build civilization for their posterity, to invest in the future and in themselves. The deal has been endlessly …
