Summary

Sam Vaknin discusses various topics in different transcripts. In the first one, he talks about the power dynamics between men and women, where women have gained the upper hand in recent times. In the second one, he blames the emphasis on career and toxic masculinity for the decline of committed relationships and the rise of loneliness. In the third one, he discusses the crisis between genders and suggests that women have the power to change the situation by tightening up their boundaries and getting clear on their values.

This is not Zimbabwe or, you know, the depths of Congo. This is Harvard. Well, Harvard is a good case, actually. This is, you know, your neighborhood, your community college.

There’s a war going on. There’s a war going on. These are the reported numbers.

You ask me, majority of women are sexually assaulted.

So Sam, although we’re talking about this is the age of matriarchy and women have gained all this power in so many areas, they are still being held hostage by the male gaze. And in doing so, they are being abused. And they have no boundaries. They are adhering to the male sexual script.

Script, yes.

So women need to take back their power in that area as well by turning up on their boundaries, getting some values, bring back some morals, and start to have a little bit more respect for your body, for yourself, for your soul.

Yes.

Saying yes to drugs is not a sign of empowerment. Saying no to drugs is a sign of having a spine. You want to have balls? Have the right kind of balls. Yes. You know, it’s no problem. You want to have balls. Have the right kind of balls. Yes.

Saying yes doesn’t make you a strong, emancipated, liberated woman. It makes you a sex slave. It’s slavery. It makes you an object for the gratification of every passing man. And most of these men are beneath you. They’re beneath you. Women are dating down.

It’s a myth that women are dating up. That’s not true at all. There is this myth among the toxic masculinity communities that women date only men who are superior to them. It’s called hypergamy.

Like majority of women are dating only 20% of men because they are attractive and rich. And so there’s a lot of carping and complaining going on among these toxic masculinity communities that women refuse to date, men who are beneath them.

The truth is exactly the opposite. Numerous studies have established that women are trading down, not trading up. They are dating anyone. They’re so desperate for connection and companionship and they just date anyone.

And there is, of course, an enclave of really narcissistic, grandiose, psychopathic women who date on purpose men who are beneath them so that they have control and they can feel superior.

There’s also this. In general, women date, and by the way, sleep with, even in casual sex, better males, not so-called alpha males, to use the terminology of these, not kids. They don’t sleep with, they choose better males. Overwhelmingly, they choose better males.

The reason, of course, is better males are more preponderant. There’s more of them. And women at some point are so jaded by dating, so disappointed, so broken that they have only two choices, celibacy or to sleep with anyone. And so 20% sleep with anyone. These are known as socio-sexually unrestricted females, women. Women who are social sexually unrestricted, there’s about 20% of women, they simply sleep with anyone. They’re indiscriminate completely.

And many of them are driven by the need for companionship. They feel alone, feel lonely. Women feel lonely more than men. That’s an established fact. And then 80% choose celibacy.

The rate of celibacy had exploded. The frequency of sex among people under age 35 is the lowest ever. Not the highest ever. The lowest ever. They have much less sex than the baby boomers.

Good for me. They have much less sex than Gen X. Sex is going down in several countries, Japan, big parts of the United Kingdom, and so on. Scandinavia, shockingly. Sex is extinct. No one does sex anymore.

Pornography is on the rise, of course, as compensation. But that’s it. There’s no sex. Sex is not just sex. Sex, exactly as Sigmund Freud said, sex is a force of life. It’s a connection. It’s a bridge to the next generation. It’s the ultimate form of intimacy. It’s bringing someone into your body. It’s merger and fusion. It’s an amazing experience, if done properly, with the right person.

To have given up on it is to have given up on life.

When we have a country like Japan with a majority of people under age 35 are virgins, that doesn’t bode well. When we have a country like the United Kingdom where sex doesn’t feature among the first five favorite pastimes of people, of teenagers, they list video games, you know, million things, social media, but not sex.

So these are bad harbingers. These are really seriously bad signs.

I personally, and I used to be a climate change activist, I’m still a member of one of the biggest climate change NGOs in the world, think tanks in the world. I know a bit about climate change, I’ve written about climate change extensively, and I tell you the crisis between the genders is a far, and I mean far, bigger threat than climate change.

Far bigger threat. We will go extinct long before climate change has any serious impact on our daily life, just by virtue of the fact that starting in 2016, a majority of women and men did not have a single encounter with the opposite sex. That’s 2016.

Since then, majority of men and women did not have a single encounter of any kind with a member of the opposite sex.

Now there’s a crisis for you. Climate change is going to take 100 years, or 50 if you’re pessimistic. This is a present, clear and present danger, present, emphasis on present.

So women have the power to change this. Yes. And they have to tighten up their boundaries and get clear on their value.

Women have been cursed. They’ve been cursed by biology. They’re being cursed monthly, and then they are cursed by biology too. They’ve been designated as the carriers of the next generation. They make huge sacrifices in pregnancy and childbirth. They risk their lives to bring forth new life.

So women have been cursed. No question about it. They’ve been dealt the bad cards in the game of life.

And one of the main functions of women has always been the gatekeepers. They’ve always been the gatekeepers. Not only the gatekeepers of sexuality, but the gatekeepers of morality and so on. Women are the main socialization agents. In other words, women represent the values of society to their children and imbue their children with these values.

This is a process known as socialization. Women are also the main acculturation agents. In other words, they’re the ones who introduce their children to culture, various aspects of culture.

So women are super critical. And it’s precisely the reason why for every hundred articles about maternal functioning, we have one article about paternal function. Because fathers, between you and me and Karen, fathers are not very important.

Well, at least not at the beginning. They’re seriously not important. You can raise a perfectly balanced, healthy child without any father. They’re not important. They’re sperm donors, essentially. And even that function is being replaced pretty speedily.

So mothers count, women count.

The only hope for transformation of any kind in today’s world is it lies with women.

And it is a responsibility which women are abrogating and very angry at women. Very angry at young women. It’s a responsibility they’re abrogating. It’s selfishness. It’s a form of selfishness. It’s narcissism, in effect.

We’re never becoming more narcissistic. In 2000, when the fourth edition, the text revision of the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual was published, 76% of people diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder. So there were men today. It’s 49%.

This year, for the first time, the majority of people diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder would be women. Women are becoming selfish, narcissistic and so on. And they are abrogating their responsibilities.

And as a human being, also as a man, listen, I’ve been born in a different age. I’ve been born when the world was still intact, more or less. Women were mistreated badly in this world. And we all worked, by the way, men and women. At that time, we worked to remedy the situation.

But I remember the world as it used to be. It wasn’t utopia. It’s as dystopian as today. But at least we work together. We work together in a variety of worlds, in communities, in neighborhoods, in families, nation states, in between genders, among genders. I mean, we collaborate. There was a model. Today, it’s totally automat. No one works with anyone about anything, regarding anything. It’s totally broken. It’s the whole world.

And I mourn, I mourn the loss of magic and charm between men and women. Men and women should be 1000% equal. It’s untenable and unacceptable that a woman should have any disadvantage in any field of life.

Voting, wages, access to healthcare, access to education, and sexual choices, absolutely. Total equality.

But where feminism, late feminism, mainly liberal feminism, but not only, where it went astray is in confusing equality with identity. And then confusing identity with substitution.

So like the first they said, men and women need to be equal, then they say, well, men and women need to be identical. And then they said, actually, women can replace men. Men are dispensable.

These are the messages, still are.


And I think, not because I’m a misogynist, but I think big part of the blame, it’s not a blame game, but big part of the responsibility goes to goes to women and the academic establishment that has supported.

Now, men are women are children. Men are much more children than women. Women mature much earlier than men. Puberty today extends much further and starts much later. Puberty adolescence today starts three years later and ends about 10 years later.

One third to one half of people under age 35, one third to one half of people under age 35 live with their parents. It’s crazy. Many of them refuse to have a driving license unheard of. This was the act of personal autonomy in the past. Having a driving license and drinking and having sex. These are the three tests of becoming your own person. Younger generations are postponing all three. They live with their parents. They refuse to drive or to drink. Drinking has collapsed. They don’t even buy condoms. Condom consumption is down four to five percent annually for several years now. They don’t have sex. They refuse to live. They’ve given up on life.

And you could say, well, men and women have equal responsibility for this.

But no, women are the adults in the room. Women are the adults. It’s like you have parents and children who say, well, they are both human beings. So they both have equal responsibility.

Not true. The parent has much more responsibility than the child. Women have much more responsibility than men because we know for a fact that the maturation of men takes much longer and in many cases is never completed. While women are much faster and so on and so forth.

So women are equipped and then making bad use of this equipment.

Okay.

So I guess women have to be in charge of the men’s Peter Pan syndrome. Just because men never grow up, women have to be responsible for that?

No, but women should refuse to enable men. And today women enable men.

Think of men as pathological. Think of men as people with problems, developmental problems, you know, intellectual problems. And what women are doing, they’re enabling these men, they’re enabling men by acceding to male scripts and male mores and male expectations. They’re telling men, they’re legitimizing them. They’re telling men, you’re right. I should be a slut. I should be a sexual object. Here I’m dating you. I’m accepting your terms and conditions because I find them reasonable. Actually, I find them empowering.

Which is, of course, self-deception. Women don’t feel empowered in casual sex. Women feel like shit after casual sex. It’s documented in numerous studies, but they tell themselves they self-deceive. They say because it’s a cognitive dissonance. It’s how to reconcile.

So they lie to themselves. They say, we feel empowered. I wanted to have the sex. I chose it. I’m using sex as an example, but it’s not only sex. It’s not only sex.

For example, women in the workplace make numerous concessions to male dysfunctional behaviors. Males don’t do it with females, but females do it with males.

We have studies of female chief executive officers. They accommodate the men. They make concessions. They modify behavior. They become much more empathic and understanding. They smooth corners. They avoid conflict. They conflict the verse.

I think it’s time for women to wake up, become truthful, boundary, insist on their values, and if necessary, deny sex for a while.


To all men, you’ve done it for millennia. You’ve been denying sex when you wanted to accomplish economic goals and so on. You’ve been using sex as a manipulative tool.

Not nice to say, but it’s a fact. Do it again for a good cause this time.

This is sex, but not only sex.

Insist on the true equality, which is truly empowering. No one deserves concessions because they are bullies or because they are immature, because they threaten violence and aggression, or because they love conflict, they are adversarial, or because they have muscles.

No one deserves concessions. We don’t live in an age where any of these things can be translated legally and legitimately to action because if these things are translated to action, it’s criminal.

In other words, don’t give in to criminal behavior. Don’t give in to antisocial behavior.

What is happening today in the casual sex scene in the dating arena is bordering on criminal, and in many casesis criminal.

Women reported all cases of sexual assault and interpreted properly some of these encounters. Half of the male population would be in jail, in prison. It’s really bad out there.

Yeah, like Prince Andrew might be, down the road.


Yes, but many women lie to themselves on this as well.

They saywell. They say, well, I provoked him, I teased him, I led him on, I should have known better, I should not have gotten drunk, I shouldn’t have dressed this way. Or it wasn’t really that bad. Or, okay, at least he was pleased. I wasn’t pleased, but he was pleased. We didn’t do this all the time.

You had been conditioned by millennial abuse and subservience to be mentally submissive. You may be, as women, outwardly liberated and emancipated, you have access to money and power and jobs and so on.

But changing the mentality of the weak, because you’ve been the weak, changing the mentality of the weak, becoming less passive aggressive, less self deceiving, less justified, less people pleasing, less people pleasing. This will take centuries. This part will take centuries.

And also, Sam, wouldn’t you say, I think in your studies, it shows that the alcohol consumption has gone up extensively for women.

Women need to stop getting drunk and having sex. Don’t get drunk and then see if you want to have sex.

Well, they get drunk, they get drunk because they can’t face reality. That’s why they get drunk. They want not to be there.

Yeah. Why would you be somewhere you don’t want to be? Totally crazy.

Okay, I think we are about to. All right.

Yeah, we’re going to stop there.

That’s it for Pop the Red Pill.
