I’m going to be honest. If someone randomly murdered my uncle, and was convicted of it in a court of law, but merely released on probation and sentenced to pay $19,000, then I would kill him.

Henry Cavill and his longtime partner, Natalie Viscuso. They aren't particularly looks-matched. Most would agree he is noticeably better looking than her. Yet examples like this are quite common. It highlights how men frequently prioritize loyalty, honesty, and compatibility over purely superficial looks.

A small number of criminals commit the vast majority of crimes. One famous study found that just “1% of the population [is] accountable for 63% of all violent crime convictions.” [Link below.]

Most men don’t actually want much casual sex. Try getting as much sex as you can without a boyfriend, and you will learn this is very difficult even if you are attractive. The disturbing truth is a lot of guys just want casual with a woman they tell themselves wants more. They want an ego boost. They don’t just mislead about intentions to get sex. They mislead about intentions for their egos.

The Left used to worship Elon. Then they started calling him a Nazi over political disagreements. The message is clear: Either submit or the Left will do everything in its power to ruin you.

She was elected to lead the Olympics as its first female president. Her first major decision: ban transgender women from women's events. Kirsty Coventry, a two time Olympic gold medalist in swimming from Zimbabwe, became the first woman to lead the International Olympic Committee in its 132 year history when she was elected president in June 2025. One of her first major decisions was launching a review of female category protections in Olympic sport. On March 26, 2026, the IOC Executive Board approved a 10 page policy banning transgender women from all female events at the Olympics starting with the 2028 Los Angeles Games. Eligibility is now limited to biological females verified by a one time SRY gene screening. Athletes who test negative are permanently eligible. The policy also restricts most athletes with differences in sex development, including two time Olympic champion Caster Semenya. Coventry said the policy protects fairness, safety, and integrity, adding that "even the smallest margins can be the difference between victory and defeat."

I once dated a man who I later discovered was 'polyamorous'* and I ran a million miles because I had the prescience and self-respect (thanks mum and dad) to never want to be in a relationship this fucking miserable. * If you were on any dating site, but perhaps especially OKCupid in the late 2010s, you couldn't throw a stone without hitting a polyamorist. I've lost count of the number of deeply boring men who sent me articles about 'compersion' as though that would convince me I really wanted to be in a relationship with them and - by extension - any number of dysfunctional nutters they happened to alight upon.

Male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria in Germany show a keen interest in forming relationships with local women, but the local women show little interest in forming relationships with them. Germany, in particular, received over 1,4 million refugees between 2014 and 2016, predominantly from Muslim-majority countries such as Syria and Afghanistan. The majority of these arrivals consisted of young, single men within prime marriageable age brackets. This study examines partnership preferences of male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria who arrived in Germany between 2014 and 2016 and female residents of similar age. Overall, our results indicate a high level of openness among male refugees towards partnering with female members of the resident population, but a comparatively low level of openness among the latter towards partnering with recently arrived male refugees. This implies a substantial incongruence in partnership preferences among the two groups. Regarding the educational level of a potential partner, we found that all respondents prefer highly educated partners over those with lower levels of education. This suggests that, for refugees, securing a highly educated partner might serve as a means of upward social mobility and integration into higher-status networks in the host society. Furthermore, it is possible that highly educated women, due to their greater exposure to diverse social environments and potentially less discriminatory attitudes, are perceived as more open to intergroup partnerships, making them a more attractive choice for refugees seeking acceptance and social integration. On the other hand, the reluctance of resident women to accept partnerships with refugees is largely explained by their rejection of the ‘imported’ religious Islam. It is possible that resident women perceive the religious practices of newly arrived refugees as different from their own, reinforcing a social distance that limits intergroup partnerships. Moreover, this reluctance might not only reflect religious differences but also concerns about gender norms or perceived lifestyle incompatibilities.
