In every large-scale military conflict, there is the macro war and the micro war. While the macro war fought strategically by the generals has a great influence on the micro war fought tactically by the individual soldiers, the two wars are nevertheless distinct from one another and must be contemplated separately. In this second column in the series related to the war against men, I am focused solely on the micro war that is fought in the houses, classrooms, churches and night clubs of America.
In the prelude to a battle, the local commander always considers four things. His resources, the enemy's resources, the lay of the land and the objective. Now, every male individual's objective will naturally be different: One man may hope to meet a large number of attractive women, another man might wish to marry a specific woman and a third might wish to escape a hellish marriage without spending the rest of his life in court-dictated financial servitude. But regardless of the objective, the same general rules about the lay of the land and the relative value table will apply.
It is generally understood that in conventional warfare, a three-to-one advantage is required for the attacker to be able to expect success in assaulting a defensive position. In like manner, a two-point difference in the level of attractiveness generally dictates which of the two parties is in control of the situation, or in the terminology of the statistics-oriented Casanovas who have brought Billy Beane's "moneyball" approach to the world of intersexual interaction, possesses "Hand."

I suspect all shrieking women are emotional monsters, sure. But at least they're being honest about it.
It's the quiet ones who are emotionally driven that are dangerous for men.
It has nothing to do with volume.
I wonder if, for example, the Catholic Church would marry two people under Canon Law without a state-issued marriage license. I mean, it seems to me that the secular institution stands in so many ways athwart the Catholic understanding of marriage that one would think that the Church would prefer to avoid any association with that institution in the public mind. I think that other Christian denominations might feel this way. If memory serves, the great R.J. Rushdoony (my favorite Protestant theologian) had something to say about this.
I’m not Catholic, but I checked into getting married without a marriage license. Apparently it is illegal for a priest/minister/etc. to do so.
(Eeek. Many a story will start out that way...)
Ah, skip the story. Let me just agree that quiet, emotion-driven women are dangerous for men. But I maintain that the same kind of man, is dangerous for women.
How's this: women are arguably both more emotional and more aware of their emotions, and so in a better position over the years to face, understand and develop deliberate strategies of self-control or self-management (because there's no option of ignoring female feelings, they're right out there like a rash on the face.)
Whereas men are slower to access their emotions, and likely slower to acknowledge, understand, or try to remedy them. (Because they carry them inside, like a deep inflammation they don't even know is there.)
In truth, I am not so very confident about my generlizations, since right away I start thinking of exceptions! And the people I know and like best, male and female, are "working on themselves," trying to do better on handling this stuff day by day.
So on that note, wishing you a good day, I bow and exit.
As far as all women, they are more emotionally driven than men, and this is a problem in business. I've worked under women who have the power to affect people's lives, and make those decisions based on emotion. It's an unstable way to run a business. The fact that many men now operate the same way is attributed to the feminization of our country. We are poorer for it.
They might in the future. They may only agree to marry people who wouldn’t get married by the state.
