Protestantism and Blankslatism

I talk about Blankslatism quite frequently. I note that the overwhelming majority of American Christians believe in blankslatism, including most of those in the Christian Manosphere. Whenever I bring it up, there is some skepticism about how true this could be. I get it, you don’t trust me. So here …

An Open Response

I take accusations of sinning seriously, but not forever. I take them seriously enough to set aside my other practices (such as using pseudonyms) in order to address such claims. But after this, I will not speak on the matter again, no matter how many libelous repetitions follow. This is …

Marriage and Intelligence

A preprint study was recently released which perhaps provides some insight to the observation recently made at “When Should You Get Married?” regarding those with top 2% intelligence. It would seem to apply to the common Manosphere male archetype, a college educated man with above-average intelligence. Want to be an …

Thoughts on Limited Agency

Let’s look at some comments in response to “Limited Agency” that I’ve received this week. It already treats women as little more than children. This is exactly what society believes: Society infantilizes women, and I’m somewhat surprised that women—especially feminists—don’t find it absolutely insulting to be condescended to like that.

In “Did Solipsism Kill the Manosphere?” one of the key facets of solipsism is the formation of social cliques in order to establish and enforce ideological purity. I wrote: Perhaps even more awkward is that exclusionary social cliques …

Susannah North Martin

In “Did Solipsism Kill the Manosphere,” we noted the five solipsistic ways—anecdotes, social cliques, passing judgment, emotional manipulation, and authoritarianism—that are regularly found in the Manosphere. As part of that examination, we showed how solipsism is used to enforce ideological purity through exclusion. We also examined how the accusation of …

Did Solipsism Kill the Manosphere?

In the early days of the Manosphere, there were two driving concepts: female hypergamy and female solipsism. In the days of Chataeu Heartiste and R. Roger Devlin, these two concepts were said to be the main driving factors behind female behavior. At Dalrock’s blog, hypergamy was mentioned thousands of times …

Limited Agency

Over the years I’ve read many comments and articles with the Manosphere that about the agency of men and women. Searching the archives, I found thousands of references to agency at Dalrock and Sigma Frame. Most of the debate centered around the binary question “Do women have agency?” Then I …
