This is an ahistorical and incorrect take
This is an ahistorical and incorrect take.
Talk to any aristocrat today, and they will tell you that the entire purpose of the aristocracy is to secure their bloodline’s survival. Everything they do is about ensuring their children (in the greater sense of extended family) live and have children of their own.
But this is a great narrative for a fake aristocrat to tell the gullible peasants or, even better, their enemies in order to undermine their familial success and make them more useful as slaves. It’s not a healthy message.
Right now the only aristocrat I know of that is publicly telling the truth about how to live with more nobility is @EduardHabsburg. If you want to know how aristocrats view family, read his book “The Habsburg Way” and “Building a Wholesome Family in a Broken World.”.
Never listen to childless internet anons that no one will remember in a generation pontificate about a man’s purpose or family. There is a way for men that is tried, true, and tested. Follow that way.
