Studies after studies have proven that the "every one is a winner" mentality only breeds mediocrity and even resent towards the world, when daddy's little princes ends up working as a teacher, she feels that is below her.
Nomad - despite the impossible there are plenty of men everywhere who manage to put the frame over almost any woman's life. Most often it is a sign of high market value, but it can be done via simple Game & personality. In the worst case such a man walks off just like some celebrities do, when women start shit-testing them after a while.
Also regarding the "everyone is a winner" mentality - yes absolute crap.
However the old system of having one winner and only the top being rewarded is sub-optimal too.
A better way is to set individual goals within a competitive environment.
This could be done in all endeavors - achievements in sports, learning & science. That way everyone can remain motivated. Otherwise only those get motivated who already have more positive mindsets or who are closer to attaining the goal - the lower half is actually de-motivated by such motivational techniques.
We are all unequal, but we should acknowledge that - with an individualized motivational system we could all reach the top of our potential.
