On Today's Episode:
Gender roles and equality continue to be a hot topic of discussion. As women make progress in the workplace, gender pay gaps improve, educational opportunities are getting better as women break glass ceilings.
Every action has a reaction and now we’re starting to see unintended problems arise for men. There is a mating crisis stemming from the masculinity crisis that has men and women questioning what it means to be a man.
Chris Williamson is a podcaster, KZbinr, and former professional party boy. His podcast Modern Wisdom is the inside journey of him learning out loud from some of the most interesting people on the planet. He’s working on his first book about the mating crisis and joining Tom in this thought provoking conversation about masculinity that doesn’t diminish femininity.
With women outperforming men in education and earning more than men in 2023 while also being the gatekeepers of sex men are turning to porn and video games, while women struggle to find male partners that complement their success.
Chris is very clear that this important conversation is not about putting the breaks of women, but rather solving how to put the gas on men to become worthy partners that add value, protect and preserve his relationship and family.
QUOTES:
“The alignment of essence and action would be a good way to get started with integrity.”
“It is a challenging time to be a man at the moment in 2023. I think that it is very hard for you to find a firm place to stand with your masculinity.”
“The pessimist always finds out that they’re right.”
“After a while you have to admit to yourself that your imposter syndrome has got nothing to do with your capacity and everything to do with your addiction to feeling like an imposter.”
“The male sedation hypothesis is that men are being sedated out of their status seeking and their reproductive desires through porn and video games…”
“I think men and women have biological predispositions that cause them to be better suited towards different sorts of tasks.”
“I really think that we’re going to have a mating crisis on our hands which is driven out of education and employment.”
“You have an ever increasing cohort of women competing for an ever decreasing cohort of ultra high-performing men.”
“If you give a man purpose and the ability to achieve it he will crawl over broken glass with a smile.”
“If you cannot find a partner that you genuinely are attracted to and that you genuinely want, that’s not good for you either. If one sex loses, both sexes lose.”
“Men and women are supposed to raise each other up.”

Another big issue is the cost of living/house. One man cannot provide for a family any more. Or all he does is work to provide for his family. 15 years ago you could buy a house in Oshawa on for $150k to $175k. Those same houses are up to $650k but wages have not kept up. Where is the motivation for young men to forge their way in the world knowing that they can't even afford rent let alone a car or hobby or groceries for a child?

[@mattbphotograph8973]

I somewhat disagree. People will also change if the reward for changing is worth the pain to them. The problem is, often times, it's not. Our society isn't as meritocratic as it was in the days of yore. Too many people put in the work, and don't get the reward, in spite of putting in the work and believing they will get the reward. Just working hard all by itself, although essential, isn't a cure all, the socioeconomic/political environment needs to change to become a place where that hard work results in the desired outcome most of the time, for most of most of the people who put it in. Part of getting there means admitting that the current environment isn't adequate and making systemic changes to improve that environment.

This has kept more than half of all the female peers I know as volcel. That's the dirty secret no ones talking about men and women don't trust each anymore and many are walking a way living alone quiet peaceful lives watching the shit show. Many men just want to believe the lies online instead of investigating what is really really going on, after the good ones, the scared ones, the traumatised and broken voluntarily checked out, what was left was the unhealthy ones (obese, anorexia, infertile etc) no one is attracted to, and the female trickers/players/ users that get a lot of attention online that everyone thinks that is the dating pool when they are a small minority who go after the rich men or just plain riches, not to mention the ones that were never available (married to straight men, and the ever growing women in lgbt+), meaning there is low supply and high demand situation for the men who wants relationships, marriage and children.

It's only been 2 and a half months since the break up, and I'm still miserable but she seems totally fine. I'm still hitting the gym like always, getting good grades in college, focusing on being my best self, etc., but seeing how women can just move on like nothing happened really shows how replaceable a lot of them find us.

[@kamrudkd]

researchers consistently fail to address the magnitude of this issue. People ultimately need love and validation. When a man doesn't matter to a woman, when she doesn't gaze at him with a loving smile, tell him she wants him/needs him, that he matters to her. A lot of guys have never had that. This will cause disillusionment/isolation/soul sadness and mental health issues in men. No amount of material things, por* will be able to replace that. The problem in the west is 2 fold. Incels can't get a woman and the ones that do get one, end up in divorce/breaking up or being cheated on and losing more than the lady. So they swear off relationships and end up lonely all the same. (Mgtow) Both have the effect of creating lonely, angry, atomised ppl and broken society with plummeting birth rates. And can spell the end of that society. What are we seeing in the west now? Falling sperm counts, falling testosterone levels, births, marriage, anomie and a rapidly ageing society, with catastrophic debt levels. White ppl used to have close family bonds but now they no longer keep ties with family and send old ppl to homes. Jobs for life are a thing of the past, from where they used to form friends. White ppl lost their matchmaking culture and used to marry form within their own tried and tested social circle. With all that now gone, internet dating and cold approaching/PUA random women that u know nothing about is the way. Which can be dehumanising and toxic. Peace

The advice we're giving to young men who are out of relationships sounds to them like what was being told to women in the 50s, which we were all told no one should have to conform to. "Care less about your needs, be agreeable, be funny and stay in shape and don't expect any respect" I think just leaves men saying "fuck that" and amusing themselves in non-destructive ways (because actually they're not all rapists in waiting)

[@brandy4530]

I agree. The advice given to men is the same old fashioned advice that has always been given to women in traditional communities. For women, the narrative changed with the women’s movement. It became, “women need men like a fish needs a bicycle.” It’s a silly saying in a lot of ways, but it did lead to women being more internally motivated to build their own lives independent of men. In the past, women were taught that their value and worth as a woman was based on how desirable they were to men. Everyone assumed women would always be motivated by marriage. This radically changed for women in the 60s and 70s. Men have never had their own movement where they reject the idea that they are always motivated by getting a gf and sex, and instead they are motivated by an internal desire to build something for themselves.

I personally know there are exceptions,… they give me some hope. In the meantime, I have a very hard time not imagining the worst scenario. So while I have a dating site profile, I can’t bring myself to respond to anyone. It feels like asking for trouble! 😂💁🏻‍♀️ It doesn’t help that most profiles are vague. It comes across as lazy and/or desperate - as in “I’m lonely/bored so I’m casting a WIDE net.” And when they ask me a question I answered in my profile… pass! Anyway, just my 2 cents 😊

I see a lot of these KZbinrs trying to motivate people by saying "I was down and out but I became disciplined and worked hard and now look at how successful I am." The problem with that is that people realize the confirmation bias. That KZbinr is telling us these inspirational stuff because they happened to be the one who succeeded. We all know that for every one like that there are a million who were just as disciplined and worked as hard but did not make it (be in in YT or whatever area). They just aren't here to tell us about how they didn't succeed because they didn't succeed.

You can be as optimistic as you want, work harder, work smarter and always aim to be the perfect person. The issue is that won’t make a shítty employer appreciate you or promote you or pay you well. Being the perfect person and optimistic won’t stop someone from cheating on you. It won’t make you better looking or taller or smarter. My point is you have to recognize when it’s time to redirect and aim for something/someone else. You’d think this is common sense but I was so “optimistic” before that I believed all I needed to do was improve myself in someway but the reality is I should have redirected a long time ago.

[@jessegarris7037]

Direction and discernment are the most important things we can develop. However, direction in the beginning is not always that important. It's momentum and redirection that is key. For example, a few years back I was partly motivated to improve myself so that I could stand a better chance of getting back a woman I used to love. Now, I realize that woman is probably not the best thing for me. But I made a ton of progress along the way and was able to redirect my goals, and harness the energy. Anyways, thanks for the thoughtful comment.

@@mrz305Meaning if you are trying and trying yet the female you want (or maybe are with) doesn’t put in the effort too and it’s all just you…. Time to find someone else. This applies to work as well, where no matter how well you do your job, or go above and beyond, you’ll never be appreciated or paid well. That too, means it’s time to move on and find another job or start your own business. Don’t keep putting in effort where it’s one sided and the other side isn’t treating you well too. The key though is to be honest with yourself and don’t just say you are putting in the effort, if you really aren’t. The edit is to say that the solution is very much an individual’s own choice, so if MGTOW is the right choice for you, then you have to decide that for yourself. I think there is almost always hope to find someone if that’s what you want, you just have to consider all options and maybe even other countries.

I am older guy and had no idea. I feel kind of ashamed that I was so clueless having believed young men were merely wining. In my day, at the very tail end of the sexual revolution, sex just was everywhere and believe it or not, even though we were having sex all the time with multiple partners, it didn't seem transactional OR as if we objectified one another as is the case today. I hate the following expressions but I will use them to make my point. Women had sex all the time with many partners and we men thought it was fine, even cool. The women were empowered. Today, many act like whores and I say that in how I read they speak of men as if men were a penis or a wallet or both.This is revolting. The men today appear desperate and pathetic in their attempts to woo women (by no fault of their own.) For women, sex appears to concentrate on four things, penis, wallet, consent, and abortion, meaning of the latter a fixation on sex as an event associated with trauma or the risk of trauma. I feel terribly for the plight of young men having to navigate all of this. In my generation, although the women created the norms, they tended to do a good job of it and lifted us men up in the process.

One thing I've found is that physical intimacy is something you get over very quickly if you don't have that fundamental attraction down for one another. And being alone (truly and honestly) isn't that bad if the alternative is the company of someone you don't truly resonate with, though you won't really grasp this until you've been there. It's a night and day difference sharing yourself with someone you're in love with, versus someone that you like just well enough and happens to like you. This is why you want to maximize yourself in areas you ideally want to strive in and not pedestalize having a woman next to you before you make headway on yourself. Chances are, if you chase a companion before you do the vital work on yourself, you're going to line up with a partner that doesn't truly ring your bells, and even reflects a lot of the same deficiencies you possess. I'm realizing that the best mate for your is someone you're going to discover on the way to realizing your potential. Because you'll be swinging closer to the type of person that is your ideal when you're being/at your best. Learn to be more addicted and obsessed with those big picture self-improvements than filling your immediate loneliness. This is 20/20 clarity of hindsight speaking. The project of YOU is far more important and rewarding than the project of filling your loneliness, if you can reframe your solitude not as a heavy thing, but as helpful and freeing (for you to move forward). Also, don't let the hypergamy chatter discourage you. I promise you it's not a law that governs the entire opposite sex. What matters is that you're doing what you're passionate about. It doesn't have to be extravagant. If you're self-actualizing in your own way, there will be those attracted to you. These gents have good points, but they do over-emphasize the importance of superficial factors. There is a distinctive aura about a man on his purpose who is full of optimism that more than compensates for those surface "deficiencies". I wish those pill communities knew just how possible it is for them.

@@mickethegoblin7167 Only if you've bought into what social media feeds us. People's insecurities are what generate clicks on these videos that discuss superficial "requirements", and thus more videos get made with titles like this one. We perpetuate this echo chamber until it takes on a life of its own, and then we start taking it as gospel. Yes, you don't want to be rudderless or without resources. But having 8% body fat, high six figures, and a prestigious position often aren't requirements for a good woman who has a well rounded personality that you can develop real feelings for. The types of women seeking those specific things might be nice to look at, but won't have any additional qualities that complement the exterior. Authentic attracts authentic. Pursuing your authenticity is what will attract the best quality mate for you. Pursuing strict superficial goals 7 days a week means it's likely you're not actually being yourself, but just a version of you that society tells you that you "need" to be, just to be competent. The problem is those goalposts will always move and it will never be enough, because approval is fleeting. Whereas being yourself and going after what resonates with who you actually are won't require endless chasing. You actually have the ability to feel adequate and enough right now, but no one actively works on that. Instead they keep running on society's hamster wheel and stress themselves out to no end. I'm telling you that you can get off of it, live on your own terms, and find great success in your dating life. What is underrated constantly as a key factor is how you carry yourself, and learning to not do the things that turn women off. Many men today pursue these checklist items but don't work on the behavioral issues, which holds them back even when they achieve all the "things". Half the battle are things you can fix today, by reducing your pedestalizing of a relationship and becoming more authentic. Guys need to stop getting tricked into believing who they are is inadequate because of surface level traits. That stuff is only a part of it. Behaviour, confidence and authenticity account for most of the battle. If you sincerely believe that, then I don't envy the toll that living by that belief is going to take on you.

It's also interesting how whenever we discuss men's issues we never seem to get past "self improvement". When women face large scale issues, we look to change society, policy and social views to accomodate women's issues. When men have a large scale issue, we just say "oh you are just lazy... you need to go do X ,Y Z for yourself with no help, assistance, aid, support or societal shifts bevause you have a penis." We never consider that something outside the man could be causing his problems. Instead, we have a cheap default mindset that men with problems are defective machines. That they simply aren't "doing" something. This whole conversation betrays a fundamental lack of understanding of men in general and reals of feminist filtration.

Women generally have no interest in just jumping into bed with the nearest man who sees women only as objects to screw, that's _why_ those types of men end up single and celibate. it's their own personal mentality that causes them to be in that situation. Then people like Andrew Tate reinforce their attitudes which only makes the issue worse for them, not better. That's why you also see overweight, ugly, poor men in happy relationships. They have a positive and loving attitude towards women, and seek commitment and open communication etc, and _that's_ what women want. Yet all these sexless men claim women ONLY want money and that's the ONLY reason they won't get into bed with you. It's ridiculous and these specific types of men really do need to fix _themselves_ ..

So there is this obvious rift between men and women now, and everyone is trying to figure out what to do about it. The answer that everyone seems to come up with is that men need to rise to the level of women. The answer or solution never falls on the choices or actions of women. Women will always be physically attractive to men, but they have become interpersonally repulsive to the men with the ability to choose. Many of us have realized that the benefits we grew up believing in from partnering with women are a fairytale that isn't at all a representation of what they actually bring to our lives. It isn't just that men are not good enough for women these days, it's also that taking a woman into a man's life now is a net negative for men. In ancient times, men had incentive to evolve themselves to get sex, and women had incentive to carry themselves in such a way that men would want to have them around. Neither seems to be the case now.

Although I don’t regret the time spent and wouldn’t take it back. I missed out on so much in life. Women never gave me the time of day so I never dated, never had sex. Years of having online dating and not one date more less a message back. Meeting people at work is vilified. For the most part women just want to be left alone in public. My days are spent on hobbies making money for myself. I was also raised from a Christian background. So sleeping around never even looked appealing.

I feel for you having cared for your father for so long, that's a great thing you did. I saw my mother care for her sister when she had cancer and it was very trying. Her sister chose to not be cared for in a hospital but at home and I was there when she passed away and could support my mom at that time. I have never been on a single date, not even a failed one. Never been with a woman, can't even look or talk to one anymore if it's not to a coworker and the situation calls for it. I don't go out with friends, in fact I don't even have friends. If a coworker has something lined up I always decline. I'm afraid of social activities, of what people think. Of expectations. I just shut myself in, and have been ever since I was 15. I don't even try anymore. I moved out at 25 and have been alone now for fifteen years. I do wish I could change myself and be more open, meet someone and have a good life. Be able to see my parents have grandkids. They probably suffer from not having any. I probably can't read signs from women, looking back there have maybe been four or five times where one has shown interest (maybe) but I've backed away and lost the moment. I feel like I'm still a 16-year old because I've had so few interactions with people in the real world apart from work. I've been all over the western part of the world, probably around ten or twelve different countries, but only traveled alone or with family. I've never used a dating app, never used Facebook or anything else for trying to find love. And starting now would just feel wrong. "You'll never meet anyone just staying inside." is what my sister said probably fifteen years ago. "I wish you'd find someone" is what my mother said more than ten years ago. "Why don't you get a girlfriend?" is what my other sister said probably twenty years ago. I'm just a real loser at life, who's never even attempted life with someone else. There's probably a whole host of reasons why. I'm not happy with my appearance, I always saw my parents fight, and all of their friends fought also, all of the married couples in their social surroundings were fighting, and I didn't want that. I thought that's how it was and it wasn't something I wanted to try for myself.

Unfortunately our stories are very similar. Except I only have a half sister who I disowned and my mom. I’ve had a few instances where I was flirted with but I too focused on my dad to worry about it. Probably my own self esteem getting in the way as well. At the very least men like us can live moderately happy in solitude. I just was scared of being THAT guy who had to pay child support and fight to see his kids and not get to see them grow anyway.

@@Fallensky17 Yes, thanks for sharing, Bob. I've never or rarely wanted to talk about my life until very recently. I also helped raise younger siblings growing up. I was 8 and 9 years older than them and helped raise them until they got independent as teenagers. We also lived in a fairly small apartment and having a girl over was not even something I considered. I have a total of 3 siblings and growing up I felt that our family was all I needed. My family was also quite tight knit, and I've always been afraid of meeting someone and having to meet another family. And having that family meet my own family, the thought about that always gave me anxiety. In all the loneliness and solitude I do try and remind myself that I am a strong-willed survivor.

People are broke....when you're financially stable and you can afford time I'm pretty sure everything else it 100× easier. When people's basic needs are always at risk and what can determine if they will be able to pay rent is if they take a day or two off, anything else will become harder to achieve. Not to mention that most people don't want to bring a partner back to their home to dilly-dally if they live with their parents or any family members. I know I wouldn't be comfortable doing that. We have all these other issues, sure. But the fact that we are becoming too busy that it's to the point that we don't even have the time to even entertain the idea of a relationship says alot. And when people can barely take care of themselves, they will hopefully have enough brain cells to know they can't take care of another person, let alone any tiny humans they might want to conceive.

Chris, when mentioning the sexless problem, you often focus on the successful women having a smaller and smaller pool of men to choose from. But you seem to ignore the impact of obesity on the number of women that men find attractive. If I go on Tinder I'll find maybe 20% max of girls that I would swipe right to. That's because slightly chubby is now the norm. This is another factor into why men aren't pursuing sex, because it could feel like the women you are actually attracted to are fairly rare, and they are being competed for like crazy. Both men and women are finding a smaller pool that they are actually attracted to.

I grew up with a strong and good example of how an ideal man should be through my Dad. He showed me how a man should treat women by how he treated my mom and myself. Both my parents are very ambitious and hard working people with some traditional views. Before I married my husband, I had boyfriends who called me high maintenance when I was just asking for basic competency and respect. Things I saw my father do, so I didn't settle for them and it didn't last long. My dad taught me that saying, "why buy the cow, if the milk is free." As a teen, I hated that saying, but I do see some truth to it. My husband hooked me through his confidence and humor. We have similar interests, beliefs, and lifestyles. When I saw characteristics of both my mom and dad in him, I knew he was the one. Our marriage isn't perfect and it takes a lot of work, but I'm grateful for the good example my dad has given me. I think it would have been really hard finding a good partner if I didn't him in my life.

Honestly sex is very easy these days because the average date is transactional. What moral men are looking for is a life partner with traditional values. The average dating apps are where most transactional hookups happen. It's the men with moral character that are mainly sexless because many of them don't want to lower their standards playing in the streets. Besides there's too many variables that can harm their future e.g. pregnancies, diseases, bad reputation etc. The solution for moral men that struggle with finding a moral woman is, work on becoming the best in your career, invest your money, remain razor focused on keeping your good standards, and aim for higher heights. Last but not least when you have your life together travel the world and see new things, you just might find what you want elsewhere. That's my take, much success moral men.

I'm leaving a comment mostly in response to the comments made by both Chris and Tom expressing some concern about how women will perceive some of the things you shared here. I am a woman and I feel grateful for this conversation. I watched this interview exactly when I needed to, during a time when I am introspecting deeply about femininity and masculinity within myself, in past relationships, and in society. Specifically, much of what Chris said seems to align with something I'm learning about through my study of Germanic Healing Knowledge, which is "living biologically". I value your masculine perspectives and I'd love to hear more on this topic. Thank you.

Wow, now I understand why so many women will remain single...It all comes down to men not showing as much interest in women as they used to, due to a myriad of problems. No wonder psychologists are so in demand these days... :O

@@lrm52283 i didn't say that at all. Both need to be in touch with their soul, if not, its a recipe for disaster. both need to be growing and recognize both are on their own paths as well at different stages of that growth, but should be respected no matter where they are at in that growth. If one or neither isn't working on their soul and attempting to raise their consciousness, then most likely those two don't belong together at all. e.g. money, looks and titles are all temporary. The easiest approach to finding true love is to write down everything you wish to see in a partner and be..... that.

@@suzygirl1843 you would be correct if when you said natural selection you meant both men and women of the West going extinct. but if this meant Western men are failing to natural selection your correct... but western women are also failing at this selection process in higher quantities since Western Men are not getting with Western women but they are getting with foreign women but on the inverse Western women make no attempt at getting foreign men. Single men are on a steady incline in the West this is undeniable and based off historical averages of 40% of men reproducing with 85% of women its getting pretty bad. But what is 100% unprecedented is having 50% of women without child going into there 40s... that is a 90 degree angle in terms of charted change.

WOW, I'm digging your conversation! Absolutely brilliant. As a sprog, I was on a mission from God to grow up at warp speed and get the eff away from my strict parents. I was about 11 both when I got my period and fell insanely in love with the Rolling Stones. So naïve - I hadn't a clue why the folks were in such a tizzy about where I was going, with whom and what time I was expected home. Jesus! How they lived through having me as a child is anyone's guess. I'm 70 now and have lived one of the most interesting lives anyone could hope for. And you mentioned the rag of all rags, Cosmopolitan. Girls like me in the 60s and 70s took Helen Gurley Brown's word as gospel. Guys were reading Penthouse and Playboy, with Hugh Heffner as some kind of role model. And we all thought we were "free." Yah, right. The two of those hustlers and thousands of others like them got filthy stinking rich peddling their BS to millions of us pinheads back in the day of the "Sexual Revolution." We couldn't wait to gobble up the next issue and take the Cosmo Girl Quiz. It was a revolution alright. War. People suffered and died and were taken captive. Glad to be old and out of the fray and so interesting to hear what y'all have to say about what's going on these days. Tough times. And I agree completely with getting young dudes to be kindergarten teachers! I had not a single male teacher till 7th grade. WAY too long a dry spell. I think it's imbalanced and not healthy.

I have really enjoyed this discussion. I would like to push back on the idea that someone in the burn situation you used as an example will not have a relationship or find a mate. I have seem quite a few situations at that level where people have indeed found someone and have ended up not being lonely. The most recent was a friend who was in terrible shape, with diabetes, both legs amputated, a bad drug-resistant MRSA infection, and other problems. When he was at his worst he met someone online and for the last couple years of his life he was finally not alone and was actually happy. I can give you many more examples which I have all seen first hand. There are a lot of lonely people out there, both men and women, and if as a guy you are genuine and not an asshole it is simply a matter of getting out there and finding that right person. She exists and will get as much joy from being together as you do.
