>>93101>All men die. All things are transient. The majority of men who have walked the earth did not reproduce but many, perhaps even the majority, of them were still of value to their people and the world. You are a cell in the body of your tribe and perhaps you have the opportunity to play a vital role that a breeder cannot
What I was getting at is people have a natural revulsion to "incels" and it's not something I believe can be rationalized away. It's much in the same way as how people will always subconsciously hate trannies no matter how much "positive media portrayals" they get. As an aside, breeding is important to me. Promoting celibacy is something I would hypothetically use as a psyop to kill off groups I don't like. "Who gets to have all the bitches and money" is politics at its core when you think about it.
>True celibacy of body and mind endows great strength.That has yet to be seen, in myself, or anyone in a similar situation for that matter. There are sex-havers who may decide to take a hiatus for one reason or another, but they never give it up completely by choice. It may do you some good, but not me. Anorexic people don't need a low-calorie diet either.
>Pride and shame are both illogical because none of us created ourselves. If you were a foot taller you would probably not be an incel. A single factor determined by cosmic forces beyond your comprehension has determined your fate. There is no pride nor shame in thisThe primary point I was making is that being involuntarily celibate due to being a huge loser(by one's own standards) is significantly different than choosing to be celibate in the face of temptation. Much like there is a difference between being a broke bum, living in the gutter, and someone with a lot of money taking a vow of poverty. Imagine a bunch of smelly hobos hanging outside of a gas station, and they're all saying "yeah I'm VolPoor, bro! I could have been rich, but I'm poor by choice!" It is perhaps true only in the loosest sense, in that they can't even be bothered to try making money. It is not virtuous to denounce wealth that you never had. They aren't being spiritually enriched, they're coping. A little discipline would probably do them some good.
Different people require different things. There's a saying that everyone knows, one that I used to really hate. Most people who say it don't really understand it and only use it to excuse their poor behavior. It's "moderation in all things, including moderation"(I am aware that this is allegedly an Oscar Wilde quote, but he didn't come up with this concept). Only when I happened upon a chart summarizing Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics did it make perfect sense to me. We have different excesses and deficiencies, and we require different measures to zero them out.
>Prostitution is worse than masturbation because you pay for it with your blood (ie work hours), in addition to spilling your life essence. You are paying money and degrading yourself for temporary access to the lowest form of womanI highly doubt this. I would really like to do some studies comparing the Anglosphere to European countries where brothels are legal along some metrics that aren't easy to gauge. Regardless, It's not much of a price at all. I actually expect that it will provide valuable insight.
>A celibate dog is a beloved family member, but a dog that masturbates is considered mentally ill and put downBeing compared to a neutered dog is not encouraging. A lot of things about modern pet ownership is pretty sad, but I digress.
>Wherever you are, whatever you are, accept that and peace will follow. Denial of reality on the other hand causes sufferingFucking women is in fact highly attainable. Most men aren't "incels" due to circumstances beyond their control.
You know, I find that a lot of the people who preach stoicism these days are not quite correct in their assessment. Desire leads to joy. The Journey is the fun part. Suffering only happens after you get what you want for various reasons(fear of loss, not meeting expectations, ect). Still, they seem to promote against having goals, or against working toward anything, or doing something different entirely, which I think is the wrong idea. I don't know if that's what they intend to communicate, but that's what they do communicate.
