5 Harsh Truths Every Man Needs To Hear:

There are difficulties for everyone in life. 

However, there are always many more for men.

Let’s look at 5 of the reasons why:

1. Success as an Object

Men are defined by success.

Women’s hierarchies are not built on success. Mens’ are.

If you want to be seen as ‘successful’ as a man, you must have utility in some capacity.

2. Pareto Distribution

A small percentage of men win big. The majority lose massively.

They fall to the bottom of the dominance hierarchy. There, they are losers, failures, rejects of society.

3. Expendability

Men are expendable. 

There is far less compassion afforded to men when they’re suffering.

There is no natural protector of men.

It’s a dog-eat-dog world.

4. Zero Sum Game

As a man, you’re only considered as successful if you’re more successful than others.

Billionaires only have status because of the minute amount of them.

Whether we like it or not, we care about our status in societies.

There is a biological function deep within us that compares ourselves to others in a hierarchy. 

If you are not attempting to rise, you will feel spiritually numb.

5. Capitalism As Status Competition

Capitalism has one major benefit - it offers men an arena.

In history, these arenas were battlefields. You might not like capitalism, but it beats the alternative we had. 

You still have no choice but to play in the game.
