Far too many men are far too thirsty for their own good.
Now granted, I have been off the dating field for three-plus decades, now. But I clearly remember how my gonads made me one dumb and desperate mf. And plenty of guys never grow out of that phase in the first place.
Except from what I have seen, most guys are like this well into their older years. Like, fifty-plus and even seventy-plus.
It’s only a minority of men who get a solid grip on their drives and crank them down to where they don’t do or say spontaneously stupid shit. A healthy minority, fine. But still a minority.
Honestly, if someone made a pill that could switch off all of those thought-nerfing impulses - in ways that don’t negatively affect mental, physical, or sexual development - we should be handing it out like candy to all guys who haven’t yet gotten married. Not only would it crater the unwanted pregnancy rate, but it would also likely crater the rate of unwise marriages, and therefore, first divorces.
Downside: the rate of beta orbiters, and consequently, the amount of attention/money/resources women get, would also crater, due to women’s ability to manipulate men for their own benefit being absolutely nerfed to oblivion. There would likely be riots in the streets and clinics being burned down to re-establish all of those patriarchal benefits. I mean, women are already pulling out the social shaming with all of those wildly-unironic, double-bind “where are all the good men?” TikToks, but this would dial up that existential panic to society-wide levels.

Its like the male coded equivalent of the mean nurse who never grew out of high school
