The time when marriage made the most sense was when the family decided who was the daughter going to marry.

We lost track of the reasons we did what we did.

Why does every civilization to prosper on earth had some sort of regulation on sex?

Why was virginity pedestalized in so many isolated cultures?

Why is marriage so common in so many of these cultures?

Citing J.D. Unwin:

The whole of human history does not contain a single instance of a group becoming civilized unless it has been absolutely monogamous, nor is there any example of a group retaining its culture after it has adopted less rigorous customs.

Understanding this is pretty mind-blowing. We can pinpoint the exact moment we are in history: abundance, losing track of morality, etc.

Monogamous? Most cultures were polygamous, with the caveat that only a man is allowed multiple wives; a woman is not allowed multiple husbands.

I'd either preemptively murder the other nine men in order to secure my role as the only breeder, or kill all ten women so that we can finally have a rational society for a few decades.

Both those ideas are utterly retarded

First idea would only work if you were the ultimate alpha and even then the other nine men would rise up and kill you.

Secondly why would you want a fully rational world. You sound like engineering majors who think they're the only major that matters.

What's the point of a world without beauty and art? What's the point of existing at that point?

Kill the lowest two men, or even two men at random. Or, in times past, lose two men to accidents, warfare or disease.

8 men for 10 women builds in abundance, while still leaving enough men to actually get shit done.

All else being equal, a slight majority of women in a society fixes an awful lot of intersexual problems.

His idea is retarded, but because he was specifically provoking, i think. While the first one wouldn't work, the second one would indeed create a nice society.

I don't know where you got that idea that retionality=boredom, nothing happens, people just study and adjust their glasses.

It couldn't be further from the truth.

In fact, it can easily be noticed the pattern that the more rational, logic societies of the past are the ones that spawned the best and most art.

Think about ancient Greece. Home of the philosofers, the rationalists, the stoics. Their art is still marveled today. Other societies of the time were much wilder ("funnier" the dumbs would say, while in practice, unless you love living in a constant state of fear or assassin euphory, they were all but funnier), and they didn't produce more than some rude half assed stuff.

Venice, Rome, are the most beautiful, artistically speaking, cities of the world. They spawned in highly organized, lawful and rational empires. Today they're going to shit, because the people that live in those cities are losing rationality.

How can it possibly help us if red pill went mainstream? Imagine how much harder our mission would be if every single guy was hitting the gym and raising his SMV all the while putting women everywhere in their place. Women won't just choose the best like they do now, they would choose the best of the best. We would then all be killing ourselves to raise our SMV even more than we are now. Shit it already is bad because now everyone is at the gym to the point where women now think that men are just born that way.

[–]DennisReynoldsAMA 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

Agreed. It's already bad enough that more Men are trying to improve their SMV than women, so then we'd have an imbalanced gender SMV ratio. Too many ripped dudes and too little hot chicks, and too many fat chicks. I think if trp was less known the better for those in it.

I think it would be just as likely for a man to force himself upon one of the women in this scenario as it would be for him to act violently against his male competitors. Especially if all he wants is sex.

What sounds easier, for him to physically overcome one of the females or to physically overcome one of the other sexually frustrated males?

[–]Endorsed ContributorTheeRyanGrey[S] 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

  1. Rape would all but die in this scenario. He couldn't rape the top 3 women without the Alpha Male killing him.

  2. The only man who would need to rape would be the bottom 2 males, the weakest amongst them. They would be crushed by the other 8.

  3. Women are such a valuable source that they would be genuinely protected and cared about.

  4. In history, the most common rape has always and will always come from times or war and poverty. Rape drops with wealth and women available.

[–]bruh_my_jays 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

This is all assuming that the alpha male has polygamous or polyamorous tendencies, which largely depends on his temperament. My point would still stand for the top eight males defaulting to violence against women. History has proven that men of any stripe with regards to social standing are willing to use both physical force and deception to attain sex, regardless of whether or not they legitimately "need" to.

Women are such a valuable source that they would be genuinely protected and cared about.

I would potentially agree with this, but I would place a caveat. Pregnant or pregnable women are the ones with value. Otherwise, they are seen as men in how they ought to contribute to the pack. They are not impervious to violence, and their frailty makes them, along with the the lower-tier males, easy targets.

In history, the most common rape has always and will always come from times or war and poverty. Rape drops with wealth and women available.

Again, I agree, and this scenario is depicting exactly that. A world where people have scarcely any valuable property, and where the population of women match the population of men 10:10. The lack of genetic diversity alone would drive them all to interbreed, the alpha male would simply be the first one in.

[–]tb87670 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

He would take the 2-3 best ones and the other 7 would now let their egos go crazy as there was 9 guys for the 7 of them. This is when the violence would start, when the men realized there wasn't enough women to go around

This isn't correct. Naturally all men would agree to a single woman each in such an equal numbers instance, the one that gets greedy with 2 or more women himself would be killed by the rest, the women that 'cheated' with him would be cast out and the one meant for the dead male would be the replacement for the cast out one. The two offenders would be gone essentially.

Even in the past men did not step on each others toes when it comes to women, societies with no laws against murder were the most polite societies. Swiping a woman out from under a guy you are going to be sneak-killed or straight up killed, either way we all know in our guts you do not do that to fellow man. That feeling of being a beta AFC, lots of us felt that. Now imagine if you could act on it with those 'jerk/jocks' that the women were banging without pesky laws or law enforcement in the way. This is why that shit wasn't as blatant in the past.

I had a discussion with someone earlier about how 80/20 is not the natural state of things like a few claim here on TRP. 80/20 wrongs too many males and there would be too many internal killings within a supposedly 'friendly' group. Back in tribal times men had to work together just to eat. No, 80/20 is a recent development due to social pressures and lack of punishment for female cheating and in fact there is resource gain for a woman to cheat with the current marriage laws. That is why 80/20 exists today, women can get away with it and are even encouraged to do so.

The only other times in history this has happened entire civilizations were destroyed as in off the damn map forever. It destabilizes the nuclear family, reduces overall population reproduction rate, reduces motivation in so many men that productivity is down, and it happens only because political correctness took over and in our case today it's because in the hippy days not enough men stomped down on this bullshit behavior leading to the pickle we are in now. Currently a few men get fed up and go on killing sprees even, it's that bad. If it keeps happening at the current pace, going from 70% divorce rate to say 90%, too many men will be wronged and it will be too blatant. Women are already miserable and downing anti-depressants in record numbers since they fuck themselves into useless lumps on the CC in the years they should have chosen a single proper mate and they either never realize it or realize it too late like in their 40's. They just don't get that they are harming themselves for the temporary sexual satisfaction that also comes at the expense of the majority of men going sexless, it makes no sense. Women get what they claim to want and both sexes are miserable, men induce the so-called 'patriarchy' that feminists claims to be evil and both sexes were much happier.

80/20 is the inevitability of female hypergamy. Not specific in the number, just the concept once you factor in women with self control, women incapable of getting high value men, etc.

But harems have always existed for the men at the top. Great men impregnating lots of women is how we got here in the first place.

[–]tb87670 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Harems only existed because medieval warfare literally killed off the competition. When men died by the thousands in each battle or at least by the hundreds in just skirmishes how many women does that leave back at home with the near 50/50 male-female birthrate ratio? That was simply natural because there were fewer living men than women. 80/20 is not the inevitability of hypergamy, it's lack of control of hypergamy. Once resources and safety are abundant women will want to look around, sure, but they won't knowing that once they 'cheat' on their mate they will lose him and the 'new' one might only be there for sex without having to provide, once the new one has to provide he will bail. The female wouldn't risk it. 80/20 only happens because today women can get both resource and protection while still fucking around. Right now we live in one of the low-points in history where this is allowed to go without punishment. 80/20 doesn't happen at any other time besides these few historical low-points and until this behavior isn't rewarded it will keep up and the downward spiral will continue to accelerate.

Actually there is some truth to what your saying. This video was posted a couple days ago on this sub, and although it shows that hypergamy exists in all societies, it's less pronounced in hunter gatherer societies, and was much more pronounced around the neolithic revolution (and to some extent, today). There's a bunch of other really interesting stuff in there as well, I highly recommend you watch it.

reduces motivation in so many men that productivity is down

And this is the exact reason it is self-limiting. As productivity declines, resources decline. To try and compensate massive welfare systems are implemented which end up requiring increased productivity to fund. The ends stop meeting in the middle and fancy financial engineering (fraud) tries to fill the gap. Ultimately the whole system crashes and burns and we have a great reset.

[–]ThorLives 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Your scenario reminds me of a story told in the "Red Queen" book. I don't recall the details from the book, but here they are from wikipedia.

In 1790, nine of the mutineers from the Bounty, along with the native Tahitian men and women who were with them (six men, eleven women and a baby girl), settled on Pitcairn Islands and set fire to the Bounty.

So, the Pitcairn islands started with 15 men, 11 women, and one baby.

Can you take a guess where this is going?

Although the settlers survived by farming and fishing, the initial period of settlement was marked by serious tensions among them. Alcoholism, murder, disease and other ills took the lives of most mutineers and Tahitian men.

Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitcairn_Islands

Gradually, tensions and rivalries arose over the increasing extent to which the Europeans regarded the Tahitians as their property, in particular the women who, according to Alexander, were "passed around from one 'husband' to the other".[185] In September 1793 matters degenerated into extreme violence, when five of the mutineers—Christian, Williams, Martin, Mills, and Brown—were killed by Tahitians in a carefully executed series of murders. Christian was set upon while working in his fields, first shot and then butchered with an axe; his last words, supposedly, were "Oh, dear!"[188][n 12] In-fighting continued thereafter, and by 1794 the six Tahitian men were all dead, killed by the widows of the murdered mutineers or by each other.[190]

Two of the four surviving mutineers, Young and Adams, assumed leadership and secured a tenuous calm, which was disrupted by the drunkenness of McCoy and Quintal after the former distilled an alcoholic beverage from a local plant.[183] Some of the women attempted to leave the island in a makeshift boat, but could not launch it successfully. Life continued uneasily until McCoy's suicide in 1798. A year later, after Quintal threatened fresh murder and mayhem, Adams and Young killed him and were able to restore peace.[191]

Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutiny_on_the_Bounty

In other words, 10 years after the initial arrival on the island, 1 man was left alive (out of the original 15). The cause of death for the 14 men: 1 committed suicide, 1 died, and 12 were murdered. Ten women survived (they didn't mention how the 1 died).

Nah, there would be a few gays or lesbians left over, I've seen it on the walking dead. Always gays left over at end times.

[–]quansau1 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I've seen this same line of reasoning multiple times, it's close but falls short of the mark. The truth is that people act a certain way, organizing into social norms, then religion comes in and explains why the now existing norms are the divinely ma dated ones. For example, there are many cultures throughout the world in which woman will have multiple husbands, and vice versa. We are usually judging all action through our own socially conditioned paradigms, unaware that we have these underlying notions of correct and incorrect organization. Think of it this way, we are born onto a set with predetermined acting rolls, when one character does not follow said roll, he/she is ostracized and judged. But there are many sets, and they were not crafted by a council but rather by small shifts over time in what the general population regards as normal. You have seen this in our own lifetimes if you look at the Catholic Churches stance towards gay people, or Mormons to black people/poligamy. And of course, we are balls deep in our general society regarding the shame/non shame of girls being proud of their sluttiness.
