Traditionally, women learned how to be good women from their mothers, and how to make wise judgments about men, life, and the future from their fathers. This dual inheritance shaped generations of women into competent, nurturing, and desirable wives and mothers.

But in our time, the chain has been broken.

Women haven’t changed at the genetic level. They are still psychologically submissive, still designed to adapt to their environment, still more reactive than creative. Unlike men, who are driven to act upon the world, women are designed to respond to the world around them. This is neither good nor bad—it is simply the nature of femininity.

What we are seeing now is a completely predictable female response to a broken system. And it is crucial that both men and women learn to distinguish between two levels of this crisis:

The Two Levels Most People Confuse

The Civilizational Level: This affects the majority of women. It is shaped by incentives, media, education, and support structures. It is entirely predictable: Change the incentives, and you change the collective female behavior.

The Individual Level: Each woman does have agency. She can choose virtue, motherhood, discipline, and faith. But this choice is hard, because almost no one supports her in making it.

Collectively, women do not have agency. In groups, they follow incentives. They do what the system rewards.

Yes, men can fall into the same trap—especially immature men. But mature men have one crucial advantage: they can band together and fight back. They can recognize when the system is broken and take collective action. Women do not do this. They can’t.

They are physically and psychologically incapable of resisting the system through force. The only way women protest a broken system is by withdrawing from reproduction—and that is exactly why we have a fertility crisis.

The painful truth: Women, children, and weak men have no agency at the civilizational level. They can only thrive when strong, virtuous men create and enforce an environment that aligns with human nature.

Why Men Want Women in the First Place

It has never been easier to get laid. Any married and monogamous man in the top quintile knows he has to turn down sexual offers regularly.

Modern women are desperate for attention from masculine men because such men are increasingly rare. So they are chasing them down, offering them sex, and hoping for a relationship. But what men truly want is not just sex.

They want a wife. A mother to their children. A woman who makes a home.

And that kind of woman is very hard to find.

Men who want relationships and families—the men I write for—are not looking for easy women. They are looking for women of character.

What Makes Modern Women Unattractive as Wives and Mothers

Emotional Instability You can’t raise children or build a stable home with someone ruled by unstable emotions.

Tattoos & Body Mutilation Signals poor judgment and rebellion against order. A mother must model beauty and self-respect for her children.

Debt & Career Obsession A wife buried in debt and married to a corporation can’t serve her husband or raise children full-time.

High Partner Count Bonds are weaker, trust is low, trauma is high. Promiscuity does not prepare anyone for fidelity.

Attention Addiction A woman addicted to validation from strangers cannot pour her attention into her husband and children.

Domestic Incompetence A good mother must be a homemaker. Feeding, nurturing, educating. These are not optional.

Contempt for Men Feminism taught women to hate what they most desire. No man wants to build a life with someone who sees him as the enemy.

Spiritual Emptiness A woman without reverence for life, family, or God cannot raise children with soul and purpose.

Civilizational vs Individual Fathering

We are living in an underfathered civilization.

That doesn’t just mean girls had weak dads. It means the Meta Father is missing.

Underfathering exists on two levels, just like the rest of this issue:

Individually: A girl with a weak or absent father grows up directionless, insecure, easy prey for the system.

Civilizationally: A society without the collective guidance and strength of mature masculine men permits chaos to flourish.

We simply do not have enough men who have internalized the Meta Father:

The inner archetype that protects, disciplines, and orders the feminine

The masculine spirit that enforces reciprocity and punishes harm

Without that, we let women harm themselves and others, and we call it freedom.

The Absence of the Meta Father Explains Everything

Why do women make destructive decisions? Why do weak men follow along? Why do systems decay even when we “vote” for good outcomes?

Because liberal democracy gives power to those who cannot use it wisely. Women and weak men are handed influence over the future they cannot predict and will not pay for.

The solution is not just better fathers. It is:

Cooperation among mature fathers

Enforcing a moral environment for all

Changing the incentives and boundaries that shape collective behavior

This is not done with talk, goodwill, or fantasy.

It is done the way civilization has always been secured: Through the organized power, discipline, and potential for force of good men.

Until we restore that, we will keep losing our women, our families, and our future.

The good news? It only takes a minority of strong, united men to change the course of history.

But they must rise. And they must lead. Before it’s too late.

What Women Can Do: Reclaiming Their Role as Wives and Mothers

Not all hope is lost. If you’re a woman reading this and feeling the weight of this crisis—good. That means you’re awake. And if you’re awake, you can act.

The first step is to develop your agency to the highest level you are capable of. That is the foundation of everything else.

Once that foundation is set, here is what you can and must do:

Cultivate Chastity Before Marriage Guard your sexuality. Save it for a man worthy of it. Chastity is not repression—it’s power.

Embrace Domesticity Learn to cook, clean, and care for others. Make your home a haven. These are queenly virtues, not peasant chores.

Beautify Yourself Naturally Be healthy. Dress modestly but attractively. Feminine beauty is sacred—preserve it.

Avoid Debt and Frivolous Careers Pursue education with purpose, not as a lifestyle. Be financially wise. Don’t trade your fertile years for meaningless credentials.

Detach from Social Media Validation Withdraw from the digital meat market. Build real relationships. Focus your attention on people who will be part of your future.

Seek Emotional Maturity Learn to regulate your emotions. Practice calmness, patience, and grace under pressure.

Cultivate Reverence Build a spiritual life. Develop a relationship with God. Understand that life is not about you—it’s about service.

Respect Men, Learn About Them, and Learn to Vet Them Find older men you trust—mentors or spiritual fathers—to help you understand the male perspective.

Find and Imitate Excellent Women Seek out women who are joyful wives and dedicated mothers. Watch them. Learn from them. Let them guide you.

This path isn’t easy—but it is powerful.

The earlier you start, the better. If you need help, reach out to someone like me who can get you started. But even more importantly: find local community. Real people. Real families. Real wisdom.

You can be a good woman, a good wife, and a good mother. And if you do that, men looking for wives and mothers will see you.

Because goodness always shines.

What If You’ve Already Taken the Wrong Path?

Not every woman reading this will be young, untouched, and full of potential. Some of you are older. Some have made serious mistakes. Some carry permanent marks from bad choices—debt, trauma, lost years, or a reputation that won’t easily be erased.

That’s reality. And it needs to be faced without delusion.

You cannot undo the past. You cannot recover lost time, lost youth, or remove all consequences. There will be a cost.

But you can still change your future.

If you’ve been on the wrong path, you must accept that you’ll need to work ten times harder now. You’ll have to go above and beyond in the areas where you do still have power:

Become radically emotionally stable

Make yourself physically and spiritually attractive through consistent discipline

Serve others with joy and humility

Be visibly different from your peers—so a discerning man can see you stand out

And yes, you will likely have to settle for less than what you could have had if you had lived rightly from the start.

That is not punishment. It is the natural cost of time and choices.

But your value isn’t gone. It can still be revealed, cultivated, and given in love.

Redemption is real. But it requires repentance, discipline, and the humility to accept that the road back is hard.

If you’re willing to walk that road—it is still open to you.
