    Why did you comment this? Seems like a waste of time.

      So my transition from cringe lord to become a better individual overall is actually just me getting better at video game? Fair enough

          This is part of why confidence is attractive.

          It isn't that confident humans of the male reproductive caste treat women more flippantly; it's that actual competency correlates with not being as much of an insufferable whiny piece of shit.

            Reminds me of this: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0361684319871913

            In short. The higher the social status of the woman compared to the man, the more likely the man is to sexually objectify her. Wheras women aren't more likely to do this based on relative status.

            Objectification is defined as reducing a person to solely looks and sexual function.

            Similar stuff is seen in primates. Females are easier targets to assert dominance over. Since they are physically weaker. Male long tail maqacues losing their status, would seek out younger/weaker targets to establish dominance over. Something that was interesting too, is that female maqacues with more masculine facial features, were less often subjected to dominance seeking behaviour (from both males and females if I recall correctly) than females with more feminine faces.

            It seems to boil down to "who can I dominate with little risk?" Female? Easy. Big male? Stupid idea. Young male? No problem. Male of equal size? Potentially.

            That thing about macaques reminds me of a conversation I had as a kid, about this one deep-voiced female politician who child me was confused by. Photo here - the woman on the right.

            After ages of talking about fashion choices and personal preferences my mother finally snapped and said something along the lines of "she's like that so the men in Parliament will treat her like a man because they don't treat women as well as men and they won't let her have a good job in the Government unless she's like a man".

            Couple of decades later, that same woman became the first elected female Prime Minister of New Zealand.

              & ah the incel slur, what are you ??
              A sex-obsessed creep ?

              Should I be worried about your mental well-being ?

                I got hit on a couple times in Starcraft 2 of all games just because I had a feminine-sounding username. I literally got "damn girl, look at that MMR" once and it's so funny.

                  That summary may also explain why some men are so insecure about women earning more money than them too.

                    work to improve the skill gap or draw 20

                    acknowledge that one singular woman is currently better than you at this one particular skill or draw 20

                    man it's like there are options that don't involve aggression towards another person for… not being bad at a video game

                      Take your mask off and see what happens, incel. It's always the same fucking formula, go and whine about your own tiny little insecurities every single time anything about women's experience is highlighted.

                      You'd find something between your ribs irl real quick if you took off your mask around the people in your life and they found out how incapable you are of even reading about half the population of the Earth's perspective without self inserting your pathetic insecurities.
