Cult Icon

@Enrico_sw I was forced to read this book twice, once in high school and once in college. Our idiot administrators thought it was so important that the whole school had to learn its 'truths'. I read it a few years later after college and most of it was completely deranged & wrong. It is the product of Baby-boomer 1990s utopian & idiot journalism about the wonderful benefits of globalization, where the Chinese & the rest of Asia would be the manufacturing labor-slaves of the west and a college degree was a guarantee of a middle class lifestyle. There was a lot of propaganda about the power of financial "innovation", the precursor of massive financial disasters in the West... It couldn't be delusional today as globalization has now powered the East and the West is steadily declining every year culturally, socially, economically, politically, and militarily..

GRRM also put this real world dynamic in GOT. It was written as Rob Stark, the 'young wolf'. Bolton calls him "forever young.."

The overall impression I get is that Will Smith is afraid of Jada for some reason and that she has some sort of leverage on him. With 2 pac that's an interesting thing that you bring up. That young guy who she cheated on Will is very young and successful. However all these people are nothing compared to Will Smith. Will Smith is one of the highest paid actors and has left behind a great career. Jada could not have married someone with less status and money. But Will seems to have screwed up his family and failed to be a good father and control his wife's excesses. 2pac is 'legendary' and 'sexy' in the way James Dean was for white women. Both were bad boys and attractive to many young women in an 'exciting' sort of way. Among black people he is was legendary for years, I think it has more to do with his death than his 'body of work'. This effect was also seen, although not so impactful with the death of Heath Ledger. Part of the appeal with these dead peter pans is that they were KIA in the prime of life with some iconic work, while they were rising. Women never saw them decline, either career-wise or physically due to age. So in way they are "immortal", like Jack in the movie Titanic. They never got old, never became unattractive, never became "boring", never lost their job, never had a serious crisis etc... Note that in this supposedly 'moving' scene with all those photographs the woman's financial benefactors who paid for her great life for decades is not focused on- it's just the peter pan that she knew briefly on a cruise.. James Dean - Wikipedia "He is regarded as a cultural icon of teenage disillusionment and social estrangement, as expressed in the title of his most celebrated film Rebel Without a Cause"

She is certainly much more knowledgeable about the psychology of gender relations than 99.99% I haven't been able to catch up with her channel but there are lots of women that give a similar impression in the United States. I think if you want to find better quality women, stay away from the materialistic and leftist cities like Paris and New York or areas with extremely left wing life styles and 1-parent households. The materialism, constant-bombardment of advertising, and the presence of large numbers of extremely rich and privileged people completely distort the mindset of both men and women. It's impossible to escape it if you work in New York and it's a form of brainwashing that settles in over time. The standards become wholly unrealistic and people become more like disposable commodities, friends and partners, etc. Muslim, Christian, and Asian women with traditional values and uncorrupted women free of liberal propaganda from rural areas/small towns are far superior marriage material. My parents have an above average marriage and have been successful despite some problems. I learned a lot from them what works and I can see why more than half of marriages fail, and the majority of second marriages fail harder. Besides selecting a feminine, non-materialistic and hard working woman with family values and duties, The key is that the man has to ALWAYS generate admiration. a small amount of fear, and desire from his wife. This is much easier if the woman has below-average self-esteem, introverted, and slightly timid. My mom is like this, has traditional values ,is hard working and completely non-materialistic. She has no interest in comparison to others, riches and prestige. The man has to act like a man ALL THE TIME and make more income than his wife, and act decisively regardless of what the woman says. Being a good husband is hard work and it's a job that never ends. This is exactly what my dad has done and is still doing in retirement. I think it helped that mom was much easier to work with due to her traits.
