Traditional democracy (only men allowed to vote, as Aristotle
recommended, and as practiced until well into the 20th century:

over 30 gain the vote. Dutch women won the vote in 1919, and
American women on August 26, 1920, with the passage of the 19th
Amendment (the Voting Rights Act of 1965 secured voting rights
for racial minorities). Irish women won the same voting rights
as men in the Irish Free State constitution, 1922. In 1928,
British women won suffrage on the same terms as men, that is,
for ages 21 and older.

1944 by Charles de Gaulle's government in exile, by a vote of 51

Western country that did not at least allow women's suffrage at
municipal elections.[33]

) compared to autocracy is itself evidence that Western
civilization is more patriarchist than non-Western
civilizations. Under traditional democracy, all men participate
in state decisionmaking while no women do. Whereas under
autocracy, the number of men and the number of women who do not
participate in state decisionmaking are almost equal (the
monarch being the sole exception). It is clear which system was
designed with greater male bias in mind.

In Puerto Rico, Women Won the Vote in a Bittersweet Game of
Colonial Politics

colonialism and racism—but even today, island residents cannot

> [...]When Pagán heard back months later, it confirmed the grim
reality she was prepared to hear. As colonial subjects,
Puertorriqueñas would not be afforded the same freedoms as their
white, American sisters on the mainland. Despite the 19th
Amendment’s promises and despite their American citizenship,
Pagán and the roughly 300,000 other Puerto Rican women eligible
to vote would have to wait another 16 years to cast ballots.
>
> In their journey to suffrage, Puertorriqueñas defiantly used
the island’s colonial politics to their advantage to pressure
the island’s governing elite to deliver the vote. Yet the story
remains incomplete. Their struggle didn’t end when Puerto Rican
women were extended the franchise for local elections; on a
federal level, Puerto Ricans of all genders remain as
disenfranchised as they were 100 years ago. Island residents
have the rare displeasure of being citizens who cannot vote for
president, and the delegates they elect to Congress also cannot
vote on U.S. laws.

> In 1898, the U.S. claimed the island as a bounty of its
victory in its war with Spain and took over colonial control.
After a few short years of military rule, the U.S. established a
civil government subject to American supervision, drastically
transforming Puerto Rican society. Thousands lost their
family-owned farms to U.S. companies eager to exploit the
island’s natural resources through the sugar, tobacco and coffee
industries. More women, facing the prospect of poverty, were
forced to enter the workforce...

Men are free to be as sexually selective towards women as women
are sexually selective towards men, or even more so if they
want. Every non-Western civilization understands that if men are
less selective than women in reality, it is men's fault for
lacking standards. Western civilization, in contrast, thinks it
is women's fault for having standards.

They were! But no, this is not despotism. It would be more
accurate to say that the traditional Victorian family was a

traditional democracy which strengthens it:

I of course agree that toxic masculinity is real. It is also
worse in high-sexual-dimorphism men. Rugby selects for
high-sexual-dimorphism men, and hence for the most extreme
sexism. Societies which admire rugby thus promote sexism. Which
civilization invented rugby (and spread it around the world
during the colonial era)? It is no coincidence that the

--- End Quote ---
So, let's think about this evolutionarily. What is the
evolutionary advantage of the above effect? Answer: (inferior)
women willing to accept violence initiated by men would be more
likely to stay with those men long enough to reproduce with them
many times, whereas (superior) women unwilling to accept such
violence would soon flee/retaliate/suicide and thus reproduce
less.
This reinforces what we know already: less feminine women (who
produce less estrogen) are racially superior, but consequently
less successful under natural selection (
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-false-left/proof-yahweh's-world-is-evil-and-a-prison-for-the-truly-good!/<br
/>), compared to more feminine women (who produce more
estrogen).
But we can further deduce that the more violence typically
initiated by men against women in a given society over many
generations, the stronger the selective pressure will have been
in favour of more feminine women (at least feminine enough to be
willing to stay with the violence-initiating men) in that
society's gene pool. In other words, the higher the average
estrogen levels of the women of a given gene pool, the more
patriarchist we can expect the traditional civilization
corresponding to that gene pool to have been.
So all we need to look up is which gene pool produces women with
higher average estrogen levels* and we will have a fairly strong
indicator as to which corresponding civilization is more
patriarchist.

feminine....)

Our enemies accurately explain how Western civilization, by

more machinist:

--- Quote ---

> Our civilization is held together by a pact: mid men get ****,

Again, I emphasize that our enemies are writing about Western
civilization only. No other historical civilization worked like
this (thankfully!).
--- Quote ---
> This pact harnesses the single greatest source of psychic
energy known to man: men’s desire to secure the partnership,
youthful attention, and children of attractive women. It comes
at a cost — high status men have to give up access to ****
they’d otherwise have, mid women have to settle for mid men
early instead of sharing a high status man
--- End Quote ---
Non-Western civilizations did not harness this psychic energy.
This makes them ethically superior. Western civilziation
harnessed this psychic energy. This makes it ethically inferior.
The problem is that the ethically most inferior civilization, by
being ethically inferior in this precise way, was rewarded with
the most machines and was thus able to colonize the ethically
superior civilizations. The correct response is not to imitate
Western civilization but to kill it.
