The unquestionable Superiority of Men (revised)
Current mood:Adventurous and humorous

To all of the feminists out there: we are still masters of the universe. Let's face reality: there are very few aspects of life in which women are superior to men, and it comes only out of the men's lack of interest in that particular subject. Whether it is sports, literature, math, science, or even the ability to push forward and persevere in the face of adversity, we're the hypothetical God's favored creature. Why, if not so, do most couples want a boy as their first sibling? In some cultures, women are even discarded, causing a dangerous majority of males which can only help these particular societies to experience more violent outbursts. You can observe a similar phenomenon in a bar where the vast majority are males: it often leads to violence, and no, I do not advocate for violence as a superior trait but boy it feels great to stand six built feet tall and menacing enough not to get crossed by most of those who come across your path. Not that I'm a giant either, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of guys who can kick my ass. But I can always put up a mean fight, and though I never start a physical confrontation, I'm always in a good position to end it. Oh, I know, it is considered "primitive", and while I am first and foremost a lover, there's a fighter just a layer of skin underneath. Of course, those who can't love are eager to start fights, and beating up bullies, like a female friend of mine said, makes me sexy. Another guy friend says, "It makes you a hero."
Even when it comes to passion, I suspect that all of the great deeds, the most amazing technology, the most apt minds and inventors did so with a woman in mind. So, after all, women were probably the "muse", the inspirational fuel that kept men up to speed, always pushing farther. (I must confess, by the way, that I enjoy writing such an outrageous theme solely with the idea of imaging the face some of the very intelligent women I know will put when they read it.)
Of course, women are far superior than men in subtle, mysterious and undeniable ways, imperatively speaking hygiene comes to mind. In some, the knack for gossip, drama, and the outstanding ability to unncessarily complicating themselves, perfecting the mechanism of doing good and feeling bad, seems well ingrained.
The fact that women possess some qualities that seem scarce in the average male doesn't make them superior. Here we list the pros and cons, and then come to a plausible conclusion. The natural ability to bear children, should not count; I have yet to find a man who resents not being able to get pregnant. I have heard, however, men talk of "being pregnant" but I am sure they're just being sympathetic to their afflicted spouse or girlfriend.
I speak, of course, in general terms, never individually (I've met some outstanding men in my life but far more interesting females, who I could ally myself with simply because they weren't as combative and insufferably territorial). Worth noting that by "superiority", I solely mean the ability to perform and deliver. And before proceeding, I'll have to say that, proven too, women are not only relatively less intelligent than us but also less stupid. We're not just better than them in all the honorable tasks that we have invented throughout history, we're also far worse. So, there: we're better and worse than they are. In fact, men suffer more from retardation than women, and you may find really dumb guys everywhere but women tend to be somewhat average on that respect, even when it comes to bimbos. Nature seems to love to assign us men with extremes. Take comfort, then, in the fact that if the world is as fucked up as it is, women you can blame it on us.
Women are far better, for instance, at playing mind-games than we are because, well, after willingly getting laid a few times, men lose all desire. Unless, of course, that woman could, somehow, prolong the affair by appealing at the man's insecurities. Maybe get him to do stuff for her, pussify him. In order for that to happen, she must withheld sex. It is her most leathal weapon, her best hand. If women were to give it up easily, she'd have nothing left to bargain with. Word to the wise: the less you crave it, the more it comes your way. It goes both ways.
Friendship, too, or the ability to connect, is explicitly female's domain. I'm not sexist when I say this. Guys, instead of seeking out a "sexual" outcome, try making friends out of them, you'll give up guys for good. Yeah, they pervade our minds, our thoughts, and yet we spend most of our time with friends from the same sex. I am sickened to the stomach with my gender's macho talk about sports, politics, or women. I guess it has something to do with having been raised in a house where I was the only male. Had it been any other way, I'd probably be the average joe. Guys, lacking women's intuition, don't quite see it. But they are so akin mentally and physically, if it weren't for men's sexual drive and the instinct to procreate, they would all be gay. And before you get the wrong idea, I will go ahead and betray my own gender by saying that we have done a wonderful job in repressing women's sexuality because had women in general claim back their sensual realm, had women made any sense of what true power is all about surely they'd be in charge of the world by now. Women are far better than men will ever be when it comes to hedonism. But because they grew in a world dominated by men, they fail to see just how much power their sexuality in the world really exerts. I wish I had the same effect a beautiful woman has in the world on women, you know?, turn the tables around, if just for a day.
For when women assume their sexuality without prejudice, that is a powerful woman anywhere, far more than any man present. (Don't men in power inadvernantly fall prey to this prodigious creature?) Hedonic creatures by nature, they are to play a role all of their own, where they shine without the necessity to take upon exhausting tasks... you could see the effect dominant traits have on women: it accelerates the aging process, it obscures her light, it makes them somewhat like males, primitive and ugly. Beauty, of which nature has abundantly endowed her with, is her subterfuge, her natural state, her only realm. To there, we men must retreat, to gather our strength, to invigorate ourselves, to nurture. We can't have this bad blood between sexes, is time to claim back our identities. Men, be bold, braze the storm; women, be passionate, goddess-like.
Women are so much so hedonic creatures that they are also endowed with a truly envious body part that has no scientific use other than causing pleasure: the clitoris.
Culturally, and by nature as well, women have to appear, if not necessarily be so, difficult. They have been manipulating men's ultra-libido over eons, and in order to get what they want they have to play their cards right. If they were easy, it would be a done deal: as soon as the man would find his satisfaction, once the carnal transaction is over, for the man, everything is over. Since our desire for them is stronger, they know men are bound to end up in another girl's arms, if they let them pass by, and they castrate that impulse to jump up and down by inflicting pain, appealing to our taste for massochism. Look, we all have a knack for things going wrong. It reassures our pessimistic views. We claim wanting to be happy but only engage in behaviors that make us miserable. And we're so good at it.
It's not my intent to promote abuse towards them; I am not a misogynist. That is not what superiority is about.
For instance, we are in charge of our infants, but that doesn't grant us inmunity to cause them harm. However, there's nothing wrong with a healthy dose of pain to make healthy civilians out of us all. A domesticated animal is obedient and it is almost impossible training it to be so without depriving it of its animal-self first, without inflicting some pain. The infant eventually learns that the parents will not oblige to every single one of his or her desires. The lesson is painful but also necessary.
We touch bases with misery through existence. Better remember something causing us pain, otherwise we could very well perish the next time around. Pain makes us focus, it makes us face reality, it represents an opportunity to grow and a window at freedom, if only we dared to endure and suffer the consequences. Perhaps now, it would be a good time to point out that when it comes to the game of seduction, women are the greatest masters of all. Men are consumed by anxiety, highly driven, mechanical and impetous. It could be said that men are vile, vicious creatures by nature, and it is through the social experience that we learn to somewhat inhibit our nature in order to coexist somewhat harmoniously in an ever so chaotic world; but it could also be said that we have been dealing with our animalistic nature for longer as a species and that the social experiment still is a very fragile one. We kill one another, we profess what we can't keep up, we're all talk and little action. We are lazy, yes.
Most species in the animal kingdom are, anyway. After all, we spent hundreds of thousands of years living as animals. Civilization is a relatively new phenomenon in the history of our species. Speaking of which, relatively new, too, is the notion of feminism. I know, it dates back to the sixties to some of you but it may have started as far back as Cleopatra, but in evolutionary terms that took place a split nanosecond ago.
So what does this have to do with superiority and what does superiority offer us? Simply put, society –especially ours –has promoted the idea of equality between sexes. While no one can argue positive aspects to this delusion, the negative portion of it shall be exposed. Along with increasing women's role in the most prosperous lands throughout the world, feminism dealt the final blow to the family structure. Now that women were out earning their own, men no longer felt he need to support a house. Kids being raised by newly desserted women, even with financial help, is a sad spectacle. It is not that I think we had it good back then, but that we are in a period of transition and we must understand in all seriousness that today more than ever men and women are alienated. Out of these broken homes, of which I myself descend, a new kind of effeminite man has emerged. In households where the dominant figure was a woman, what masculinity is left for that boy? You can read, as there is a whole spectrum of theories on the subject, but it seems like being a man nowadays has gone out of fashion. It is my belief that women want real men, and in their search sometimes they may settle for something less than extraordinary. Feminism triumphed because of both great men and women. But with great power comes great responsability, and now is the time to bring the gap closer.
In retrospect, the problem is not new. Where did we get our beliefs and mating rituals? Why do we take a moral stand and crumble easily into temptation? Why do we profess one thing and do the other, especially when it comes to relationships? We have it all backwards, so let's explore the source once and for all...
Throughout history, men in power wanted to secure mating and territorial rights. They've tried force, mostly, and when they finally settled into a more sedentary society, those at the top of the hierarchy passed off laws and fomented ideas in order to make sure that those who enjoyed the benefits of power (usually their closest people) continued to do so indefinitely. It doesn't matter what era or land you may find yourself in, financial resources at your disposition have always guaranteed the proliferation of your kind. Women have always been drawn to men in positions of power, however that power has been crystallized. For that, men have invariably excelled, plotted, murdered, intrigued, metamorphed into greatness or lied throughout history, in order to gain the favors of women. Undeniably, history chronicles the existence of outstanding women –but they represent a minority. For every Maria, Cleopatra, Joan of Arch or Madonna, there're hundreds of male equivalents: Alexander, Napoleon, Churchill, Jesus Christ, Beethoven. For who is the female equivalent of Socrates? Galileo? Da Vince? Voltaire? Einstein? Of course, without a caring mother or a supportive sister in their lives, they all would have surely perished.
It is often argued that the reason women have not excelled to the greats of their sexual counterparts has to do with the lack of erudite formation. In reality, every great human being, be it man or woman, has undergone hardship. No glory has been handed to them for the sake of it. Where upon flashing a smile, a woman may get a door open up for her, a man has to throw the door down in order to make his way in, and then put a humble face, as if he were embarrassed by his power. (You can't be a giant and expect not to step on some ants.)
The German philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer, in a very organic definition of the fair sex said that they were like a creature between the man and the child. Truly, the world has changed vastly since the age of Schopenhauer: women are graduating at faster rates than ever before and are even rivaling their male competitors. But the truth also lies in that the education system employed favors them in that it is not only less challenging but also strictly feminine: it is more about being a social and harmonious animal than it is about performance and competition. Moreover, females are known to suffer from depression twice as much as males; testostorone has been recognized as the hormone of desire and we possess approximately about twenty times more of it than them.
Not only are we so much better but also far worse: More than ninety percent of violent crimes in any society are committed by men. The inversed stadistic is true of plastic surgeries, as women count for nine out of ten operations carried out. An average male brain has approximately 4% more cells and 100 grams more brain tissue than an average female brain.
