Actually, psychological studies show that married couples have more satisfying sex lives - not singles. And this is especially true for women, where the emotional bond to her partner is a key factor to satisfying intimacy.
If the key factor here is what is best for the individual, which studies show is marriage, to throw that evidence away seems to me to be rather short-sighted. Add on top of that the child development and behavior and psychology studies that continue to show that children are most likely to be successful when growing up with both birth father AND mother in the home (see black crime as a perfect example of this), and I think the evidence strongly contradicts your theories.
Yes, they are traditional values. But when the evidence backs them up, maybe they shouldn't be so cavalierly discarded just to satisfy progressivism.
Thanks for the clarification. I got an email about it from the ARI Institute but did not recall the details. After reading the promo, even though I read the original one, I was motivated to buy the revised version. Thanks for reminding me.
There are a lot of accurate points in the video. It is clearly designed to articulately poke at the current state of malism and feminism.
I wasn't alive for it but there seems to have been a long period of society putting down women and making the pursuit of success and accomplishment of their invidual goals quite difficult.
What I find ridiculous is this societal desire to seek revenge on a new generation of men.
Birth control and the dramatic increase in HIV solutions should be brought into this discussion, as they are recent things that have to have a dramatic effect on all this.
you nailed it, Herb! . the anchor relationship really needs to be a hero-heroine one, and thrive in maintaining that personal goal for each and both, together. . Rand celebrated that, and hinted at the loyalty to highly-valued friends (Dagny and Francisco, e.g.) which can amount to extended family. -- j
Rich, this is sad. . the family is, in my view of human society, the bedrock upon which we build that society. I model my approach to all humanity on my love for my wife. . if we dissolve the family into the water of general humanity, where is our social anchor? . friends? . teammates? . this is serious. -- j
The new book is about the rise of the Nazis and is extracted from TOP. It omits most of the comparison with today's America and is intended to better document how the Nazis came to power.
I agree. I can not believe young men would give up sex. It goes against there biological state. If the Sexodus is true I would think it would take a drug to interfere with their natural desires.
