The Pauper: Chapter 14: Women
Women possess their own agendas. They are not robots. For them romance can be just as much an enterprise (read: business), if not more so, as it can be a pursuit of “happily-ever-after.”
The feminine nature is drawn to men with power and the ability to provide comfort and security.
It’s not primarily a matter of shallowness, but a manifestation of priorities considering her physical vulnerabilities and the psyche which comes with it.
And so it should be stated, that so long as you command considerable resources or at least demonstrate progress and the vitality to achieve them, she is given to you. But when these begin to flee at the reproach of adversity, it is likely that she will plot her escape, or distance herself.
Many of these confessions can be found on social media (in particular TikTok and Youtube).
If the pauper is diligent in multiplying the units of his possession, along with the means to secure them, he will eventually be the one pursued; more women will flock to him, or at least be pleasantly disposed towards his audience.
Ultimately, he should invite women, not pursue them.
For the pursuit of women can be a distracting, demoralizing, and exhausting ambition especially for a modern man of humble means. It can lead the pauper to grind his momentum to a halt, squander what little possession he has, or immiserate himself by committing to a damsel who curtails his joy or his risk-taking spirit.
He can find himself economically hamstringed, by incurring multiple obligations through the fathering of numerous illegitimate children, who he is ill-equipped to care for. And if he fails to do so, not only is he a laughing stock to respectable company and a scorn of principle, but risks severe reproach from the authorities or certain figures of his community in one way or another.
As a pauper, by default, he’s assigned to a restricted pool of women from which he determines a partner. But as his fortunes expand, so does the pool, naturally.
There are, of course, exceptions to this rule, as some women are fiercely loyal and devoted; insistent upon seeing their romance or union survive, at times overriding their natural disposition—for disposition is not destiny.
In the end, it doesn’t mean that men ought to be spiteful or dismissive of women in light of this truth. Rather, they ought to be simply sober about the matter.
It’s not always about love.
Women possess their own agendas. They are not robots. For them romance can be just as much an enterprise (read: business), if not more so, as it can be a pursuit of “happily-ever-after.”
They are pragmatic survivalists by nature.
Lastly, it’s dangerous to play the overcompensation game. It is that game where the pauper positions himself to appear more capable than he actually is, in order to secure the audience of a woman or extract something of value from her in the short term. But such forays usually end poorly.
In the end, the smoke clears.
To scorn a woman is to court disaster.
Men tend to confide. When the dust settles and a revenge tour is underway, she is liable to reveal secrets and rumors which can spread like wildfire, tarnish your reputation, ignite a scandal, and sow division.
Be careful not to awaken a hurricane.
And the family courts, empowered by marital and divorce laws, are tendentially anti-male with few exceptions. They have been (and will continue to be) weaponized against men, especially men who who are reckless or naive.
