Does suppressing submissive feelings or suppression of various feminine feelings lead to mental instability or dissatisfication in women in general? I wonder is there a study(ies) done on that? Someone mentioned lack of submission might be one of problem that many western women have more mental disorders than other countries(I mean Solo on the Sweden thread)

I like to think so, but how would you test this?

[keepreal]

I mean from experience. There probably are some studies out that gives evidences for this.

Women in traditional marriages are happier.

Quote:

Model 1 indicates that wives who hold egalitarian gender attitudes, who work parttime, and who take a
larger share of the family breadwinning responsibilities are less happy. Thus, none of the effects
in Model 1 are in keeping with the companionate model’s expectation that egalitarianism in
practice and belief is associated with higher levels of women’s marital quality....

[Model 3, a different model to explain results] suggests that women who are not concerned about the fairness of household labor are less
happy when their husbands do more housework.

You read that right - under one interpretation - You want to make her happier? Do less bitch work. Let her change the diapers, wash the dishes, cook the dinners.

I think it's more about whether they have exiled the feminine part of their personality (which naturally likes to submit, feel masculine power, etc). disowning that natural part of themselves is mentally unhealthy.

You cant blame them, being brought up and being told girls should be go-getters, assertive, dont let men push you down, fight against the patriarchy, etc.

Feminism was necessary but has proved too extreme (maybe it had to be tho at the time). One day the pendulum will swing back into the middle I hope, where as HUMANS we have equal rights but as GENDER-DISTINCT BEINGS, men are encouraged to be male and women encouraged to be female. One day.

Yes. In my experience before I became consciously aware of game, I tended to act beta around the women I was with, and they perpetually complained, talked shit about me, and often times, eventually called things off.

Since discovering and practicing game concepts, the women I've been with are happy as hell. Current girlfriend NEVER gives me shit, NEVER denies me sex*, and is happy as hell when I have her performing domestic duties.

* The only time we don't have sex is when she's on the rag. I'm not a fan of period pussy, and she's pretty self-conscious about it. But that times of the month becomes a blowjob free-for-all for myself.

It definitely does.
