The wealthier and more educated a woman is, the more she desires a man who out-earns her. This is why so many girlbosses turn into catladies.

See also: "When choosing a long-term mate, men value looks (fertility and genetic health) slightly more than women, while women value wealth and status (ability to provide and protect) significantly more than men."

Women make a net-negative lifetime economic contribution, but they contribute more than they consume in terms of "unpaid labor" (housework, caring for children, etc., valued at market wages in this paper).

In reality, they are already compensated for this "unpaid" labor via their husbands' financial support.

Rather than forcibly taking money from men collectively, which impedes their individual abilities to subsidize their own wives, we should abolish collective wealth transfers from men to women entirely. This would enable us to reduce taxes significantly.

"Policies that raise [women's] lifetime earnings lower fertility, while those that boost fertility reduce lifetime earnings."

"The increase in [female] non-employment raises fertility. With fewer job prospects, non-employed women have more incentives to have children."

The paper finds that among all studied fertility-boosting policies, only promotion subsidies improve both fertility and earnings, recommending this as a solution.

In reality, this means taking money from men (women don't pay taxes) to overpromote women at the cost of men competing within the same companies.

Made a new X account: https://x.com/thuletide_

They flat out rejected my ban appeal on my recently suspended account.

Hopefully this new account won't get immediately banned.

(The @ is just the first two animals that came to mind, I wanted something inconspicuous. I'll change it in a month after the account matures).

okay...

I just got personally banned by a twitter admin.

My ban definitely wasn't a result of being mass reported, otherwise I would have received a "your post violated our rules!" notification (only happened once on this account), and it was unlikely to have been an automated/AI-driven ban, since I didn't even receive an email informing me that I'd been banned.

I guess they were looking for an excuse to ban me since I kept calling out their push to deanonymize the platform.

I was recently posting about pedo hysteria and libtards pushing actual pedophilia, so maybe they used that to claim I was some sort of child predator or whatever.
