The Beta Male – Societal Savior Or Repressed Masculinity?

The beta male is the upholder of western civilization. However, they are checking out of their expected roles, where they no longer see the incentives.

Western civilization owes a great debt of gratitude to the beta male. Our society is dependent on betas to perform most of the grunt work that keeps the core foundations of society afloat, particularly in regards to infrastructure maintenance. Women (by and large) don’t touch the trade professions in any significant numbers. It’s just not in their biological or social imperative to do such jobs.

But here is an important question we must ask ourselves in 2015. What happens when the beta male has no motivation anymore? They are treated like bovine excrement when it comes to modern dating, marriage, the workforce, you name it. In fact, the only reason they consent to what they do is for certain incentives (adequate income, faithful wife etc), and those incentives just are not there anymore. No-fault divorce and under-employment are rampant, so things are definitely not looking good for men.

But take a look around, what do you see? Do you notice that it’s largely only beta males that are getting the shaft? They don’t get offered a free roof over their head, or an attractive member of the opposite for just being born. A first-world woman on the other hand, blessed at birth with favorable genes, can have so many financially lucrative options in life handed to her on a plate.

Furthermore, beta males are not granted even a flickering of attention or respect. They get portrayed as buffoons in the media, “creeps” if they aren’t aesthetically or socially pleasing to every woman under the sun, and are offered all sorts of ethereal abstractions that you can’t quite pay your rent with.

How long can you treat the most integral people to society like a running joke? How long can you pretend you’re the better face of humanity, when they’re the very reason you’re alive and thriving today? How long can you sustain yourself on their labors, while people are working nonsense office jobs which create nothing of value, while also metaphorically spitting in their faces?

What many beta males have heard their entire lives, is the same feminist discourse over and over again. That they are to be ‘sensitive’ and throbbing with ‘awareness’ to the needs and desires of women. But then as soon as they start expressing honest emotions regarding their own unresolved pains, which can financially and emotionally cripple these SNAG’s (sensitive new age guys), they are told to sit down and shut up.

The over-arching message is that men expressing their own pains about what women, and the feminist ideologies which add fuel to the fire, is poisonous and damaging to the system. What society now wants is a perverse ‘broken masculinity’, where beta males are molded in great abundance to financially supply the material desires of women, while leaving little time and happiness for themselves.

The sexual and economic marketplace is geared to create more married beta males, and shift a larger portion of the nation’s money supply into the direct or indirect control of those more likely to spend it (women). Think about it, the diamond business (engagement rings), suburban real estate business (family homes), divorce lawyers (self-explanatory), and a vast array of other money-spinners are dependent on their being a large enough supply of men who want to wife-up a female and bear children.

In closing, the system needs more married beta males in order to work, because they’re the main force holding it all together. Unfortunately (for the system), what happens if too many men start going their own way (become a MGTOW), and forgo marriage altogether? Maybe only then will a new revolution of respect and admiration for western men, and the innumerable sacrifices they make, start to take root in the social media age.
