As a woman and mother of several daughters I have this to comment.

I am hearing about marriages dissolving daily and in almost every case the male has lost his job. This is a pathetic consequence of the economic shifts.

Men are designed physically to earn a living with the sweat of their brow.

Thanks to machinations of social engineering and globalization by the likes of masonic billionaires like the Koch brothers the balance of a sound economy that supports family life has been radically shifted.
Men today have been effectively emasculated and it has been by design.
Take away man's ability to provide for a wife and family and you take away his dignity and confidence.
The shift in manufacturing by corporations seeking the cheapest labor for the highest profits has had devastating results on western nations.

Not everyone is cut out to produce "products" like Facebook or work in the social service sector. It stands to reason that the service industry will eventually suffer too when the bulk of the middle class population has no money to feed into it .

"And this has consequences. One-fifth of men in their prime working ages “are out of the labor force,” Brooks notes. The situation isn’t likely to improve any time soon, as more children than ever are now born out of wedlock—likely due to the decreasing marriageability of these men. And children born in single-family homes are less likely to graduate from high school themselves."

I'm sure there is some deep, psychological reason why women are attracted to such men but for me, it's simply about balance. Being 'possessed' by a powerful man is what allows a woman the greatest opportunity to express her feminine side. Two examples that I always like to point out are actress Katherine Hepburn and French feminist, Simone de Beauvoir both of whom were powerful, successful women in their own right, who might have justly borne the male term of opprobrium, 'ball-buster', yet who, in the hands of the men they loved, were subservient, docile and totally dedicated to the well-being of 'their' men (Spencer Tracy and Jean Paul Sartre). I believe that, some years ago, too, there was a case in south America of a strident woman politician of some power who was abducted by a guerrilla band and eventually ended up in a passionate relationship with the leader of said band much to the amazement of her former colleagues.

A man who is connected to God (whether or not he, himself, knows it) is connected to the Source and therefore, ultimate power. Whether or not we women like it, we are still at the mercy of the physical world and still, even after all these years of feminism, mostly not the physical equal of males, so it is in our best interests to align ourselves with a man who other men respect and who will defend us (and our children) to the death, if required. Although it is a fictional account, so rare is its kind in the 'real' world, it is necessary turn to Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice' to see a balanced depiction of an ideal relationship between the sexes. Ask any woman (other than lesbians) what they think of Mr. Darcy as depicted by Colin Firth and you will see some serious swooning. However, his depiction of a modern suitor in 'Bridget Jones's Diary', was lacking the same intensity and power and was, as a result, not as satisfying as his previous role. Unfortunately, Mr. Darcy's unequivocal masculinity had been changed to what passes for masculinity in our post-feminist culture, namely 'laddishness' and irresponsibility (though, as a lawyer, some material wealth, to be sure).

My ex-wife used to be a psychiatric nurse working in a large mental hospital. She told me that some nurses were very keen to work in the high security wing where the psychopathic murderers were held.

Apparently this type of man has a powerful magnetic personality that women find hard to resist. Many psychologists have observed this phenomenon and how male aggression attracts women.

This makes sense from an evolutionary perspective, but I believe something else is going on here. On a subconscious level, the female is tricked into believing her survival chances will increase if she hooks up with one of these dangerous characters. This faulty belief increases sexual arousal in women, especially if the higher brain functions do not take control over the primitive.

The alpha male also displays some of these characteristics, but is also capable of empathy and other desirable human traits. Women need to learn the difference if they really want to increase their survival chances and those of their offspring.

However, with the safety net of the welfare state, women no longer need to make careful choices. I think we should ask ourselves: in reality, how kind is social security and is it the solution or the problem?

I was more than a little distracted by the sheer earthiness of the Alpha Male spoken of by the lady who wrote the piece. Reason? Well, all was filled with earthiness, and nothing of the tenor of the spiritual! Half through, and I have not ever been one to be fearful of approaching a lovely lady, and starting up a conversation, just for the love of being able to look into her beautiful face from but a few feet away, and love how that beauty expresses itself directly to me.

Yet, the Alpha Male herein, has only the ability to add possibly 50 good years to a woman's entire lifetime, whereas he who understands that which is less earthy, and filled with the beauty of that which is truthfully spiritual, can add eternity unto that 50 years of feminine life, unto the glory of the Father and the Son, and the honest complete satisfaction of the woman! There is absolutely nothing that can be realized by the earthiness of the presented male, that can compare with a guy who is a loving and caring male, within whom abides the wisdom of the ages, with that additional ability to awaken a sleeping beauty, to an eternity of bliss!

Articles like this help battle the onslaught and damage from weaponized feminism, homosexuality and porn.

Promote that which accentuates and embodies the essence of man, woman and the virtues of family and community.

Teach men how to be men and women women. Let us be reminded of the traditional societies that have maintained themselves throughout the ages.

Homosexuals in these communities have always existed and always will. They may have been seen as strange but that’s usually the extent of it.

There was no deep fear of them and from them of us. In other words, no need to waste time discussing it. It wasn’t until the social engineers decided to weaponize homosexuality had it become a problem.

We can do well to restore humanity back to the traditional family. Those who want the same sex can always have what they want. If they want to be married, who gives a rat’s ass! No one stopped Caligula from marrying a horse.
