Have you ever had key lime cheesecake? So good.
I think 18 is a horrible age to allow people to make decisions. What are we doing?
Voting should not be until 30. I think we should raise the drinking age for hard alcohol to at least 25, and ban after dark driving for any purpose other than work or school to at least 18. Age of consent should be maybe 21 and out of wedlock marriage should be punisshable by death jail time as should adultery.
While I think there is something to be said for families encouraging matches, marriage really should be totally with the consent of a mature young woman, like I said, maybe 22 or 23, maybe 21. 18 year olds dont understand anything and can be goaded into a bad match by parents more easily.
The idea that parent will make a better match than the bride herself for the bride is not at all assured. Parents tend to make matches that are good for parents or for the family and not what is good for the bride herself. That is because parents are selfish. Their self interest may overlap with their daughter but they are not the same. If you want to encourage women to risk their whole future on a single guy it really should be their informed choice which is lets face it not possible at 17 or 18.
You want women to abandon the economic position they currently have in society which may be in their short term interest but not necessarily in their long term interests. Its clear the current situation is not in the interest of white men at all on average.
I think we can meet somewhere in between but I see no reason to subject women to servitude by taking away all their power in the equation. The power equation between men and women will have profound influence on the future of our race. We can choose who we want to be, who we want to evolve into as a people, if we plan our society well. The choices we make now will result in genetically ingrained behaviors some of which may be unintended consequences. Balancing power between men and women is tricky but surely women should get a large say in their role in the future of their own race. Not fucking feminist, fuck them. But there are lots of women who want to get married and have kids and a nice life and who are not happy with the current paradigm. There are a lots of women who would be happy to stay at home and raise kids if they felt they wouldnt get dicked over by their husbands.
My wife makes me key lime cheesecake on my birthday every year, sometimes in between too.
I don't know about raising the voting age to 30, but it should be made less accessible. There should be some kind of test to make sure the person voting knows what the fuck they are doing.
I agree that adultery should carry a hefty penalty. I ended up leaving my first wife because she was screwing around on me with another teacher from her University. I took it really hard. Made me turn to alcohol for a long time. I couldn't even date for almost 3 years after that. Luckily we didn't have kids yet.
I agree that the people who are to be wed should have their say in it, but I think there is something lost in not having the family also get a say. There has to be some middle ground there between what the hormones want, and what a responsable person has to say about it.
Regarding women in the work place, for the longest time I held the notion that it was as normal as anything else. Only more recently, especially since becoming a parent, have I realized the importance of a parent being present at all times for upbringing. On a further note, the nearly doubling of the available labor has had a severe impact on pay. If only men were working, the law of supply and demand would make those paychecks at the very least double, but my guess would be that pay increase would be even more than that, especially for high demand positions. I don't think women should be excluded from the workforce, but it should be a voluntary retraction in the interest of the family. There will always be the old maid types or the widows who will have no choice but to work in order to live. There is no reason they should be excluded from doing so.
I agree that there should be a middle ground. I also agree that the act of becoming married should be much more binding and bear ramifications in case of abuse of the positions of husband or wife. It is my belief that the future of our civilization rests on this. Its funny you say that about women being worried about being dicked over. A lot of men I know don't want to get married and have kids because they don't want to be subjected to losing everything in a divorce. Sounds like there is some shit needs fixin.

Agreed. But no one should be forced to marry some one they dont want to. And teenagers are easier to manipulate by their parents or an older man.

Me too. It was how we were raised. But we cant let our children be raised by these commie harridans. Its insane.
.... And the birthrates have plummeted
...And its tanked the price of labor. People go on with the “muh living wage” and national minimum wage bullshit, and they are totally oblivious of law of supply and demand and that a fifteen dollar min wage isnt helping anyone at all. They will have to target foreign labor too to get what they want. If we act collectively we can fuck these corporate a holes. And now I sound like a communist! But these people are idiots. We have to collectively control the labor supply.

Agree. But we need some sort of incentive to keep ladies out of the workforce and having kids. And not fucking up the job market.
Better the teens get manipulated by their parents than by older men IMO, but yeah its a complicated subject that may never be resolved .
Here in France, and other nations in Europe, families are provided with some money after the 3rd child to help offset costs. Its socialism, but I think this could be adapted to a capitalist society as well. The state knows how much a person is worth on average in tax collection and could reattribute some of that back to people to help them raise new tax payers. Its just a matter of will. My understanding is that Hungary actually has their shit together in that domain, but I don't know all the details. Something about loan forgiveness to purchase a house each child provides 25% off repayment of the loan or something. Its spiked the birth rate there.
