We wanted non threatening men, and now we have them.Which of the following statements about violence and mental disorder is not true. While we might argue about the speed and magnitude of men’s reaction to such a shift, as well as the specific mechanism we might observe (marriage strike vs weakened signal, etc), I don’t see how one could argue that an overall decline in men’s eagerness to work hard in preparation to lead families is surprising. Everywhere you look in our society you will find outright terror at the thought of men having power, especially husbands. Mohler fears that pornography will jeopardize the Christian wife’s ability to control her husband via denial of sex. Christian author and blogger Sheila Gregoire explains in one of her books that biblical headship means the wife giving her husband a list of chores, while Dr. It is common practice to cut men off at the knees from the pulpit and in the box office. Not to be outdone by law enforcement, Christian leaders have jumped on the bandwagon. The article explains that the definition of “abuse” now includes husbands who pressure wives not to associate with bad influences and who control the finances. But police and prosecutors will be expected to use the new definition when identifying and monitoring cases, meaning men who abuse partners in a ‘controlling’ fashion could face charges too. From the Daily Mail (H/T Feminist Hater):Īt the moment, domestic abuse is generally taken to refer to acts of physical violence. But even this isn’t enough, so officials in the UK have taken the extraordinary step of calling it what it is. It is now against the law for husbands to be rude, insulting or angry. Not only are domestic violence laws and enforcement based in a corrupt intellectual paradigm, but each year they become more sensitive to any perceived transgression by husbands. We also see this in the ever more absurd domestic violence legislation and enforcement. As most of us here know, we make a lot of mistakes because we cant real social situations right. Should that not be sufficient, the divorce regime kicks in expelling the father from the household (removing all power) while legally enforcing his responsibility. I was watching one of Tony Attwoods great videos on YouTube and he mentions that Aspies have a pathological fear of making a mistake, meaning that we are paranoid basically of screwing up. During the marriage it is intended to provide a threatpoint in order to move power from the husband to the wife. This is after all what divorce reform is all about. Where authority and responsibility used to be in alignment there is now an astounding mismatch.Įach year the law responds to ever greater levels of paranoia that husbands might have any power over their wives. Stress differentially affects fear conditioning in men and women Merz, Christian Josef Wolf, Oliver Tobias Schweckendiek, Jan Klucken, Tim Vaitl. At the same time, our society is increasing the legal responsibility men take on when they have a family. Instead of connecting on an intimate level, the relationship is ended in some way, and replaced by yet another, more superficial relationship. Its when the relationship grows closer and the value of the relationship grows that things begin to fall apart. We live in a culture which is terrified of men having power and authority in the family, and the culture is acting accordingly. A person who has a fear of intimacy is often able to interact with others, at least initially. Over the long term, mismatches of authority and responsibility tend to meet an adjusting force. What strikes me however is that we really should have seen this coming.
In line with The Social Pathologist’s observations, there is evidence that on the margins at least young men feel less motivation to put in the effort needed to be prepared to lead a family. What is happening to men? Why won’t they man up? I’m not entirely sold on the scope of the claim, but there does appear to be at least a kernel of truth here. This seems to be a common concern today, especially in the media. My readers may not like this but they are my objective observations. The kids need to be fed, the uniforms washed and the bills paid.
They seem to cope better with adversity than many of my male patients.
They seem more driven, more ambitious and can make stuff happen. In my experience, women today seem to have more “balls” than men do. In Hypergamic Affirmative Action, he explains:
