We were supposed to be the generation to quit smoking, stop global warming, and achieve equal rights. Instead, big tobacco turned to flavored electronics, AI eats atrocious amounts of energy answering our google searches, and young boys flocked to the meninist cyberspace. In lieu of equal pay, we got an influx of incels. Women are noticing a trend: it’s easier to be alone than with a man. But we are creating one as well: birth rates have been dropping since 2008. We are staying single, and as a result awful men are too. It’s getting harder to become a bad father than ever before.
Gen Z inherited a world on the brink of ecological and political collapse. Meninist influencer Andrew Tate takes advantage of our despair and offers men a way out. To his 10 million followers on X he guarantees money, success, and pussy. All they have to do is pay $49.99 a month to subscribe to “Hustler’s University,” his online program that teaches how to become a “high value male.”
Tate preaches success, money, fame, but that all dies with time. The ultimate success is making history, that is, birthing it. With his ideology that prioritizes biological roles and tradition, how does it feel to him and his followers that they play a puny role in the principal goal: continuing the human race. Though Andrew Tate can claim all he wants that if he was pregnant, he’d deliver in a mere 2 weeks, he can’t and won’t. He writes on X:
“I think the most important thing anyone can do in their life is have children…
When I speak to… these feminists who’re like ‘I don’t
want kids,’ I think you are the most miserable stupid b*tch in the world.”
What does it do to Tate to rely on the people he built his career by criticizing: women.
Womb envy is the idea that men subconsciously feel inferior to women’s power to create life. They depend on us to continue their bloodlines. Subconsciously these men want the ability to be pregnant. It kills them that they’re only a small drop in the complex system of creating people.
This envy can lead to violence. Tate tweets:
“I’m not a rapist, but I like the idea of doing what I want…”
In 2022 Andrew Tate was arrested and detained for counts of rape and sex trafficking.
Many men regard having children as a birthright. With women saying no to marriage and kids, how will these new generations retaliate? The overturn of Roe v Wade reads like revenge.
So are you worried about the dropping birth rates? I’m not. If women don’t want to get married or have children, they shouldn’t have to. A couple generations ago it would have been almost impossible to survive without a husband. Women tolerated a lot of suffering because of that. Now we make our own choices, and live with them. If that means the end of the human race, so be it.
