Do women have game? We read the section on "Girl Game" in Rollo Tomassi's book, the Rational male. Then we begin our discussion of "game."

Lead with your masculinity, not your wallet. You want a woman to have a genuine burning desire for you, not your money. So don't try to impress them with what you have. Impress them with who you can do. 

Do women still need men to support them financially? Most women are independent financially. Yet most attractive women continue to demand that men be capable of financially supporting them. Equality has wrought unexpected changes. Men are sexless and alone. Many are turning away from marriage and long-term commitments. Women are demanding six-figure incomes, home ownership, and disposable income. At the same time, women seem uninterested in intimacy and more interested in other things. Women and men are looking for different things. Why is this and what must change to bring love and romance back into relationships. 

Who is the prize in dating relationships, Men or women? 

Is Monogamy our goal or is it the product of dating nonexclusively? 

I appear on the Love and Dating Gurus with Dr. Dan podcast. 

Men are dying. They are killing themselves with drugs and alcohol and committing suicide at far higher rates than women. They are often the perpetrators of violence. Mass shooters are mostly young men. They are turning to authoritarianism and make up a large portion of far-right extremists and MAGA activists. What's wrong with men? New studies show that implicit bias is strongest against men. Men are more the subjects of implicit bias than people of color or the poor. Men have become the public enemy number one in our culture. They are viewed as dogs and trash, among many other things. The saying, "Women need a man like a fish needs a bicycle" has become popular among Women who no longer need financial support from men. Studies show that women are happier being single and no longer want to love and take care of a man. All of this has a profound effect on men. Pining for the past when they had more authority, Men are turning to drugs, alcohol, suicide, and authoritarianism. June 11, 2023, at 2 pm, Richard Procida, an early pro-feminist activist, the author of "Social Issues in Global Perspective: Pornography," and the leader of the Truth and Democracy Coalition will lead a discussion about "What's Wrong with Men and What to do about it." A survivor of severe sexual abuse, he will tell his story, address the problems facing men today, and talk about what needs to happen to move men back from the brink and back to sanity.

Are women more about appearance and looks than men? It is said that men are all about looks, but men are actually much more forgiving about appearance than women are. Women may consider factors other than appearance, but when they consider appearance, they are much more unforgiving about looks than men are. Women are rejecting 80% of men on dating apps while men are pursuing all types of women. 

Cathy asks how we think a man would react to a woman asking him out. 

Here we cover the section on non-exclusivity in Rollo Tomassi's book "The Rational Male." In this part of the discussion, we talk about how to date non-exclusively and why men should date non-exclusively.
