217		<p>I had intended for this article to come out close to Valentine’s Day this year. After all, it was originally intended as a rebuttal against <em>Evie Magazine’s</em> article  &#8216;<a href="https://www.eviemagazine.com/post/the-case-for-centering-your-life-around-romantic-love">The Case for Centering Your Life Around Romantic Love</a>&#8216;</p>
218<p>I don’t mind talking about the subject of Romantic love months after Valentine’s Day because frankly, the subject need not be limited to that day. We have critiqued the Romantic model for great reason and the relevance of the subject is year-round. I have no qualms about completing these thoughts at this time of year.</p>
219<p>While this is not a step-by-step takedown of the article itself, some context is clearly required. If one can see the tag line for the article by Jaimee Marshall, it reads: “That our greatest novels, most enduring works of art, most popular songs, and most affecting films overwhelmingly center around themes of romantic love is telling.”</p>
220<p>Amounting to nothing much more than “It’s in our media and recent history, therefore it is right”, it sums up the gist of the article. Okay, if you want more, here are some gimmies.</p>
221<blockquote><p><em>“We all knew that those who vocally ‘hated’ Valentine’s Day really just meant they hated spending it alone and resented everyone who got to partake in the festivities with a chivalrous, thoughtful lover.”</em></p></blockquote>
222<p>A hasty summarization alleging that there are no legitimate critiques on the idea of the holiday (Yes, I know it’s not actually a holiday but judging b
222y the pious and worshipful attitudes of its celebrators, is it not practically a “holiday”?) And, the allegation that men are lonely and bitter because they ain’t got no woman. Seems like projection, since these women appear to be constantly bitter at men deciding not to let women be the center of their lives.</p>
223<p>And that’s what the title of the article, ‘The Case for Centering Your Life Around Romantic Love’, means in the end, doesn’t it? It reads, ‘The Case for Centering Your Life Around Women’.</p>
224<p>The article tries to sound nuanced, as follows:</p>
225<blockquote><p><em>“Since children are dependent on their parents for survival, some form of sustained pair bonding is clearly essential, though (Richard S.) Schwartz says there’s no reason to think it must be romantic. You could imagine, and indeed there is precedent, for a sort of kin-based, communal structure to raising children that gets the job done without monogamous romantic love. However, romantic love’s persistence across cultures suggests it’s a core feature of human psychology, not an incidental cultural invention.”</em></p></blockquote>
226<p>I promise this will be the last of the <em>Evie</em> article, but referring to “renowned” biological anthropologist Helen Fisher:</p>
227<blockquote><p><em>“…one of the world’s leading experts on the neuroscience of romantic love, has described it as humanity’s most powerful drive. ‘People pine for love, they live for love, they kill for love, and they die for love,’ she has said, framing romantic love as a deeply embedded neural system that cannot simply be opted out of. According to Fisher, humans are hardwired for pair bonding through their very brain circuitry.”</em></p></blockquote>
228<p>Appropriate, is it not, that the emotional impulse to die for and kill for and dedicate one’s life to women comes from an “expert on neuroscience”, presenting male disposability as a norm. And yes, for those new to basic humanity for the male of the human species: the glorification and exaltation of male disposal for the sake of females is precisely what is being talked about here. The Romanticist thinks it’s dreamy. Anyone with basic esteem for men would think it is ghastly.</p>
229<p>Since when is love in its most meaningful sense a cause or motive for death and abnegation?</p>
230<p>But that’s the gist of that article. Blubbering pontifications confusing romanticism with proper pairbonding between the sexes, elevating Romantic love above all human relations (“All other human relationships pale in comparison”) and the constant appeal to hardwiring and biological inevitability.</p>
231<p>In my mind, this all amounts to human (male) self-destruction as an argument for human species survival – this is the essence of collectivism, the denial of humanity to one segment of the species to serve a societal idealism.</p>
232<p>Alright, enough of the nonsense. Here are the Five Reasons Not to Center Your Life Around Romantic Love.</p>
233<p><strong>1. The History of Romantic Love</strong></p>
234<p>The original article implies that our novels, artworks, “popular songs” and “most affecting films” are the proof we need that we need to center our lives around romance. To me, this accidentally suggests that all these are vastly new to human history, and nothing evolutionary in the sense that it was a cornerstone to our becoming <em>homo sapiens, </em>standing on our own two feet and achieving the glory of civilization.</p>
235<p>While I am not saying that choices made from human infatuation never happened earlier in human history, nobody called it a virtue per se. The codifying of these infatuations into a whole framework of romantic love, or courtly love, appears to be in the order of centuries old.</p>
236<p>Romantic love is as such not a biological constant. Instead it was a new, aristocratic cultural edict in which asymmetrical emotionalism was declared as a virtue. Emotion over mind became the standard. The result was the preaching of man’s sacrifice of rational interests, priorities, personal dignity, discernment, and resources.</p>
237<p>What’s more, if we are talking history, marriage was primarily done with economic and political endpoints in mind, and yes as well as kinship. Passion was not the key factor. While to the uninitiated these arrangements seem like a game for the very rich, even the much poorer classes married for economic and survival purposes. The poor in particular did not appear to have the luxury of impulsive romantic acts.</p>
238<p>
238The man grovels for the pedestalized female, who is both superior and more fragile than the man at the same time. Such is the legacy of romantic love, continuing to this day in modern formats. But the modern formats are taken today, erroneously, as evidence of the biological evidence of <em>homo romanticus patiens…</em>the suffering romantic man, as the apex of evolution. <em> </em></p>
239<p>(Some runner ups were <em>homo troubadorus</em>, and <em>homo pedestalicus</em>, but I digress)</p>
240<p>Being the farthest from the historical authority on the subject myself, I will leave some readily accessible links to Peter Wright’s gynocentrism.com, in particular the ones under ‘Courtly &amp; Romantic Love’:</p>
241<blockquote class="wp-embedded-content" data-secret="95nZY2IS3D"><p><a href="https://gynocentrism.com/2016/04/15/courtly-and-romantic-love/">Courtly and romantic love</a></p></blockquote>
242<p><iframe class="wp-embedded-content" sandbox="allow-scripts" security="restricted" style="position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);" title="&#8220;Courtly and romantic love&#8221; &#8212; Gynocentrism and its Cultural Origins" src="https://gynocentrism.com/2016/04/15/courtly-and-romantic-love/embed/#?secret=N8aoQ99uOO#?secret=95nZY2IS3D" data-secret="95nZY2IS3D" width="600" height="338" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></p>
243<p>These will be able to tell you more than I can of the historical details that make clear that Romantic love is far less wholesome than most people delude themselves into thinking. Much of the Romantic ideal is downright misandric, if one can uncover his or her self-imposed blindfolds and take a good look.</p>
244<p><strong>2. Romantic Love is for Show and Public Acceptance. </strong></p>
245<p>Ever notice how in the process of promoting Romanticism, it always entails an element of loudness and publicity? Romantic love is to be “shouted”, one must want everybody to know it, and it is what the world needs right now to solve all our problems.</p>
246<p>In the otherwise genuinely entertaining show <em>Family Matters, </em>Carl Winslow (the husband and father in the show) is too often portrayed as what I can only describe as henpecked, though to be fair this quality did not necessarily dominate the character’s run on the show. In the b-story of the episode “It Didn’t Happen One Night”, Harriette (the wife/mother) is upset with her husband, essentially, because he won’t express how he feels about her in public, and instead prefers to keep things private. This cumulates into what is essentially a concession on Carl’s part as he takes his police megaphone and shouts to the entire neighborhood out his door about how he loves his wife, after which Harriette is happy.</p>
247<p>Certainly there are other moments like this in media and no doubt in romantic stories. There are other vestiges of this in our world – the awkward kiss cams in stadiums, carvings in trees with cupid’s arrows, blimps conveying messages that Boy loves Girl (yes, <em>Family Matters </em>did this too), the get-down-on-one-knee and propose in public that I’ve seen too often to my exasperation, and many more.</p>
248<p>The marketing used here is “true love against the world”. As if the world will never approve of the love of this fine couple, but they don’t care, they are going to scream it out into the world and it doesn’t matter who knows it!</p>
249<p>The problem with that is, that this is false – it’s not about being in defiance of societal expectations. Instead, it is about making sure society approves it.</p>
250<p>The Romantic model, certainly as we are seeing it today, is all about advertising one’s love instead of keeping things intimate and private, leaving things within the pairbond and not shoving it into people’s faces. What we have is all about having an audie
250nce, and the approval of said audience.</p>
251<p>It’s all about making it everybody’s business.</p>
252<p>The approval, then, is focused on making sure the female half is &#8220;treated right&#8221;, when concerning the heterosexual side of things. As a sidenote, romantic framing within the LGBTQ+ contexts are always celebrated and subject to public approval, such to the point that any objection to that is immediately shot down as “bigotry” even if the objection was more akin to “get a room”.</p>
253<p>But back on point. This societal scrutiny and approval is what the romantic model thrives on. It has nothing properly to do with indifference or defiance of what others may think.</p>
254<p>Let’s talk more on how this is all for the performative benefit for the female. We know that the romantic model enables female narcissism vastly. A key quality about narcissism is the requisite of an audience to adore and uphold the narcissist. This “shout your love” aspect of the social Romantic model is tailor-made for the narcissist.</p>
255<p>This is a danger for both healthy pairbonding and to one’s actual character, male or female. The society that abides under the Romantic model is essentially promoting living by consensus.</p>
256<p>Under this, men are only “approved humans” if they center their lives around women. The rebuttals for failing to do so are ready-made and women of all stripes are equipped with them: Incel, Misogynist, something referencing penis size, Loser, and whatever else they can scrounge up.</p>
257<p>The women in question cannot conceive of a life in which they aren’t showered with social approval, in essence demanding a lifelong princess treatment. Jettisoning self-accountability, she becomes just a set of whims and firing emotions.</p>
258<p>And this is supposed to be essential to the human race biologically? This is what we must celebrate?</p>
259<p>I’ll close off this second point by mentioning that in a proper pairbond, privacy is non-negotiable to the intimacy. There is nothing wrong with passion (rationally navigated and arrived at), but by its very design it is not something one advertises the particulars of. “None of your business” should be the norm regarding the details of the relationship as far as the passion goes.</p>
260<p>The over-advertising and screaming-to-the-world of romance is deluded. If there is a good pair bond, why not keep it personal? Public romance is to involve the world – and so the pair is beholden to that world.</p>
261<p>If we as a race evolved to uphold anything, it is our notion of privacy – but that is a subject for another time.</p>
262<p><strong>3. Pathologies Particular to the Romantic Model</strong></p>
263<p>The big error that Romanticists repeat that make them sound somewhat credible is the conflation of Romantic love with pairbonding itself.</p>
264<p>Pairbonding, by the term alone, should imply mutual respect, values-based meaningful love, and above all, a close understanding and a type of friendship. If we look closely at romance, any pretense that it is a valid form of pairbonding has a way of unraveling.</p>
265<p>I have already talked about the narcissism it induces particularly in women. The attention-seeking works in two ways: making sure the woman looks well-taken care of and tended to (“treat her right”, etc), and making sure the man us under her thumb and heel as needed, at her beck and call.</p>
266<p>The latter sometimes is blatant; he is observably submissive when one takes a quick glance at the relationship. There are other circumstances in which this is not obvious, however: the pretense of leadership. Women, often the <a href="https://wiki4men.com/wiki/Traditional_gynocentrist">tradgyn types</a>, love to talk about how a man leads.</p>
267<p>Translating what such a woman says, this reads: “He pulls the carriage I am resting on while I crack the whip.”</p>
268<p>Such “leadership” is performative, and she is nothing but condescending towards the very man she is allegedly pairbonded with. But this is neither friendship, understanding, nor any meaningful notion of love.</p>
269<p>It resembles a relational pathology.</p>
270<p>By design, the male fills the sacrificial role in anything deriving from the Romantic model. In a proper pairbond, a woman should be aghast at the notion that her male partner, her close friend, is to be sacrificed at all; she should be equally aghast that she is the beneficiary and endpoint.</p>
271<p>This horror is a rational response, assuming we can expect women to feel this at all at this point. What do we have instead in this world? Adoration, gratitude, and j
271oy – because a man is degraded. She is the visible cause of this, and her response is the opposite of horror. This is the pathology of society, the legacy of Romantic love. And it appears to be essentially exclusive to this model.</p>
272<p>I’d be remiss if I failed to mention the accidents of youth that are the result of marketing Romantic love by and large. Emotional damage, radical adjustment to expectations physically and mentally, humiliation, all the way up to teen pregnancy – those are the fruits of Romantic love and the embracing of infatuation as standard instead of a challenge to overcome.</p>
273<p>And what about the darker things that have been done? Murders due to jealousy, the murder of children in the light of affairs, suicidal acts of the moment, hybristophilic situations with women romanticizing dangerous criminals, and the most common popular result of romance: the thriving divorce industry and women looting their ex-husbands property without a care in the world.</p>
274<p>We can safely say that it is rational to avoid Romantic love. When women, even those who allegedly “defend” men like the busybodies in <em>Evie, </em>instead insist that we need more Romantic love, and assert that only nasty, “lonely and bitter” men are against this, then this only indicates how deep the pathology runs in society. If the antifeminists themselves still fight for gynocentric ideology, it’s more uphill a battle than one wishes it is.</p>
275<p><strong>4. Companionate Love is Superior to Romantic Love</strong></p>
276<p>I for one wish we had a snappier label for this variant of love that we advocate. Companionate love, for the moment, seems to suffice.</p>
277<p>It incorporates Storge in the sense that it is in fact a love of the family in a real sense. A pairbond, assuming it is built to last, is literally chosen family. The reason I don’t care to *only* call it Storge and leave it that is due to the privacy/intimate factor – it specializes it just enough to earn what is possibly a distinct categorization, or a subcategory.</p>
278<p>Now let’s talk about Eros, or Erotic love. While Eros is often conflated with Romantic love, this is a mistake, and the reason goes beyond a simple mis-categorization.</p>
279<p>Eros, properly, is unabashed. Romantic love, on the other hand, serves to both curtail and subordinate Eros. Romantic love serves to starve and control sex in a way that cartelizes it, to manipulate a man by withholding sex and general affection. So I think it is wrong to directly equate it with Eros.</p>
280<p>In case I haven’t made it clearer before, those that hold the reins of Romantic love don’t approve of men’s Eros in any meaningful way. It goes without much explanation that male sexuality is demonized, with the express directive that it is only proper when it serves women. If anything, Romantic love whitewashes Eros, demonizes it and then “forgives” it in men if certain shit-tests are passed.</p>
281<p>As the erotic factor is important to a pairbond (albeit in varying degrees; men are different in the volume of their sexuality here), is Erotic love the proper descriptor of what we are looking for?</p>
282<p>Well, while it is part of it, a pairbond isn’t necessary per se for erotic love to have some presence, so again it isn’t a complete picture. Like Storge, it isn’t an estimate of it, but it is adjacent. What we are looking for incorporates both to be sure, but it needs a proper category that isn’t Romantic love.</p>
283<p>Whatever we call this (and again, Companionate love seems to do for the time being), it is the more rational, moral choice over Romantic love.</p>
284<p>So, does this mean we must center our lives around Companionate love instead? The answer…is no.</p>
285<p><strong>5. You Shouldn&#8217;t Be Centering Your Life Around &#8220;Love&#8221; Anyway.</strong></p>
286<p>Even if Romantic love is all it’s cracked up to be (and I hope I’ve indicated successfully that it isn’t), one must not center one’s life around it. So it should follow that whatever remains that *is* all it’s cracked up to be – that is, what we call Companionate love or any proper form of intimate love – should likewise not be the center of one’s life.</p>
287<p>Romantic love is practically by definition centering one’s life around a woman on the man’s part, and on the woman’s part the indulging and moralizing of men’s centering of her in his life. We disavow this paradigm by rejecting Romanticism itself.</p>
288<p>So, as a proper form of Companionate love doesn’t involve this centering, it follows we shouldn’t force it to be the center as it is not natural to do so.</p>
289<p>A human life essentially is about values and the pursuit of happiness. Things like love are a detail (albeit non-trivial), not an end goal. If anything, the pairbond should be among the number of things that reflect how you live your life with the values you aim for. They are not the aim itself.</p>
290<p>Your <a href="https://grokipedia.com/page/Ikigai"><em>ikigai</em></a>, that sense of life purpose and worth, is something particular to yourself that cannot be simplified by who you have a relationship with. Everything and everybody you choose to surround yourself with should be an indicating detail and reflection of the choices you made as per your <em>ikigai</em>. They are not the <em>ikigai</em> itself.</p>
291<p>In plainer language, your pairbond should reflect your values, yes. But it is not in itself the center.</p>
292<p>While this is the most important reason in this article, there isn’t much to be more longwinded about, and I think this is very straightforward. Love is not the most important thing on this planet nor for our existence, and there are other things more important than the even best iterations of partner love.</p>
293<p>Respect, especially for oneself, comes to mind. From that flows mutual respect, the understanding of values and boundaries, and one another. Love being the greatest value in the world tends to comfort people, but it’s time to challenge that.</p>
294<p><strong>Some Closing Thoughts on Love</strong></p>
295<p>Even if we extracted the toxic elements &#8211;
295 the sacrificial expectation for men, the pedestalizing, and the exhibitionistic performances – the very notion that one must center their life around love is a funny thing.</p>
296<p>I have come to properly understand love as an action that is self-initiated. In some of its purest forms, it manifests itself as attention that bring out the life in something, be it work on one’s car, a dedicated train set, a well-designed composition or architecture, a meal cooked in just the right way, and many other examples.</p>
297<p>Love, then, appears to be a cultivation and a process. It’s not an end goal to center one’s life around, but just something we wield mindfully. It cannot be faked – “duty” or “obligation” to love then becomes inexact, as again this is self-initiated.</p>
298<p>The same should stand when love is applied to human relations. Love brings out the life in people where needed. Relationships, and loves, are built over time.</p>
299<p>But reliance on another’s love is only an indicator that one has failed to love oneself in a meaningful way as I have described thus far: taking charge of one’s own life and freeing it from being beholden to another’s approval.</p>
300<p>The centering of love, and the “pursuit” of it, then makes for two pratfalls: one &#8211; the insistence to perform love to the point of sacrificial behavior, and two – the complete, narcissistic reliance on love by another such that they will fall apart when they have to stand alone.</p>
301<p>Standing alone is the key to humanity and despite the familiar prattling of how man is a social animal, humanity’s true evolutionary distinction is the ability to stand alone…but that is an article for another time.</p>

313		<div class="entry-content">
314		<p>By now many of you have seen the “Gold Pill” trending in the men’s issues sphere in social media. Naturally, wiki4men has the definition of the <a href="https://wiki4men.com/wiki/Gold_pill">Gold Pill</a> hot off the press:</p>
315<blockquote>
316<p style="color: black;">The gold pill is a philosophy and practice defined by two motives:</p>
317<p style="color: black;">1. Men expecting women to come to the relationship table with a material or economic commitment, and</p>
318<p style="color: black;">2. Rejection of the unbalanced romantic model that favors passion over pragmatic concerns.</p>
319</blockquote>
320<p>The Gold Pill is mentioned in a specific context within our sphere, namely, the history of marriage and relationship dynamics between men and women.</p>
321<p>The dowry is highly referenced here, and the purpose of this is to remind those paying attention that historically speaking, the transactional element was very much intrinsic to marriage pairings. In other words, the pipedream touted by traditional gynocentrists today regarding male sacrifice and one-sided exaltation of the feminine was not the actuality of “traditional marriages” nor “traditional relationships”.</p>
322<p>The historical existence of the dowry is case in point showing that women were expected to bring something to the table to help the arrangement start off in a stable way. To bring up the dowry today is as if holding a mirror to both traditional gynocentric women and the average feminism-inspired “independent woman” who comically imagines herself as “high-value”, and who claims that she is, in fact, the table.</p>
323<p>Long story short, in their mind they don’t have to contribute a damn thing. We are told that they are financially independent and 
323yet too economically underprivileged to be able to invest, simultaneously. Such is the paradox of the gynocentric world of women.</p>
324<p>As such, the dowry can be utilized as a backdrop for getting through the idea that both sides actually contribute some material substance to the relationship, or to the marriage if that’s where things are. A far cry from being “superficial” and “materialistic” as those who parrot Romantic love ideology may decry this, such transactions are cornerstones to voluntary relations of any sort. Men asking, “What’s in it for me?” is not the inappropriate question that too many think it is.</p>
325<p>As most of you know, when it comes to men’s issues I tend to highlight the case for men living according to his own terms and pursuing his visions in defiance of society’s expectations and demands (e.g. “You’re not a man if you don’t marry and have children and sacrifice all of your passions”). In other words, advocacy of MGTOW and Red Pill in its original, uncorrupted sense.</p>
326<p>With this in mind I must confess that the history of marriage and its restrictive expectations has not been a serious interest in my case; with regards to that, I consider Paul Elam, Peter Wright, and the Gold Pill’s top proponent ThisIsShah to be the go-to sources on those. Hence, that is why I have been rather silent regarding the Gold Pill.</p>
327<p>What’s more, what views I actively have on marriage, relationships, and sex itself can be accurately regarded as non-traditional in many cases, and I feared I didn’t have much to add to something that heavily references tradition in the way of the dowry, even if only as a historical backdrop and not a recommendation for its revival.</p>
328<p>Then I got to thinking – we already have a paradigm for a relationship model that is both non-gynocentric and not exactly “traditional” either.</p>
329<p><strong>Remember the Modwife?</strong></p>
330<p>Let us recap. Wiki4Men defines the <a href="https://wiki4men.com/wiki/Modwife">Modwife</a>  as follows:</p>
331<blockquote>
332<p style="color: black;">A Modwife (noun), refers to women who have embraced multi-option lives over more traditional roles, and who accept or encourage multi-option lives for their male partners.</p>
333</blockquote>
334<p>The article clarifies immediately that despite the use of the word “wife”, this can apply to non-legally-married relationships as well.</p>
335<p>The following are the four relationship models for the reader to consider:</p>
336<p><a href="https://gynocentrism.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Wifey_Model_4.png"><img decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-25425 aligncenter" src="https://gynocentrism.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Wifey_Model_4.png" alt="" width="1024" height="542" /></a></p>
337<p>If you look at Tradwife-1, at this point we can easily associate phenomena such as the dowry as being slotted right into this arrangement. Through a Gold Pill lens, we can perhaps make some addendums: e.g. in addition to fair labor division, we can observe fair material contribution division; again the idea that both sides contribute something to the table. The contributions may not be identical in fact, but are <em>fair</em> in terms of the transaction.</p>
338<p>Which is more that we can say for the gynocentric models in the middle. Observe – both insist that the woman “is the table.” Or if we wanted to take “pedestalize” literally, then the woman is the thing the man puts on top of the table in addition to all else he is expected to bring.</p>
339<p><a href="https://gynocentrism.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Table44.png"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-25424 aligncenter" src="https://gynocentrism.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Table44.png" alt="" width="819" height="614" /></a></p>
340<p>Finally, the Modwife model speaks for itself. It is tailor-made for our modern world; despite whines of tradcon influencers to “reject modernity”, not only can we not truly escape it as our society evolves technologically, but it behooves us to embrace it head on but with strong values.</p>
341<p>Without being too tangential, if we don’t take ownership of modernity and let it reflect a manifestation of our better values, then it becomes left to the gynocentric, the entitlement-based, subjectivist, and the truly crazy.</p>
342<p>Back to the Modwife. When we speak of the libertarian model for husband and wife, and everything else described 
342in our model, what we are potentially looking at are a man and woman with their own agency, accountability, and not in the least their own means to bring something to the relationship. In our modern world, when we speak of a woman who brings something to the relationship, to the table if you will, it is a woman who is able to pull her own financial and material weight.</p>
343<p>The often screeched bromides of the <a href="https://wiki4men.com/wiki/Traditional_gynocentrist" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tradgyn</a> are thus: a woman is inherently of value and a woman should not have to work. Despite their claim to be conservatives, note their opportunistic use of Marxist terminology as they deem that “wage slavery” is not what makes women happy – and should be left to men whom all that drudgery befits.</p>
344<p>This is opposite of the Modwife model, in which the woman knows of herself as someone who has to work to live for their own standard of living just as the man does for his. Contributions are unironically a self-interest based framework because the man doesn’t devote his money “for her” per se, but for the relationship, and the family that would ensue if done right. As such, so shall a womans contributions be likewise.</p>
345<p>What’s more, the Modwife paradigm would shatter tradgyns’ expectations of men as “wage slave” because in a one-sided gynocentric model, men’s work may turn to drudgery to fulfill the unrealistic expectation of their arrangement. The Modwife model hypothetically eases the burden on the man as the work contributions are fairly delineated via “making a proposal,” a phrase which traditionally referred to material negotiations from husband and wife over contributions to a shared life, only in this case the negotiating is done in a more libertarian spirit instead of following a fixed set of traditional customs.</p>
346<p>As a matter of fact, the prior gynocentric bromides are also the opposite of the Tradwife-1 model. One just wants to shout at the tradcons dreaming their silly dreams about the housewife that doesn’t work – “Women worked back then too you blithering, blue-pilled simpish dolts!!” Women also worked in the trades, certainly they worked if they were part of an agrarian society, and in any case, the notion of the all-too-frail-and-precious, automatically-holy, automatically-superior, “fairer sex” is a myth to be discarded never too soon.</p>
347<p><strong>Gold Pill is for the Modern World</strong></p>
348<p>There is a saying I have seen in the Gold Pill discussion that I paraphrase as: “Whereas the Red Pill was a short-term and possibly imperfect solution, the Gold Pill is the long-term alternative for our modern world”. While I don’t necessarily agree that the Red Pill is short-term or imperfect, I agree with the implication that the Gold Pill has come into being for men (and women) to use as a new framework, and an alternative to the gynocentric idiocy of Romantic love. Moreover, we can see that mainstream “Red Pill” discourse tends to specialize in short term dating strategies, whereas the Gold Pill speaks more intelligently as a strategy for long-term relationships.</p>
349<p>What makes a modern man, or a modern woman for that matter? One that exists in the now, where we live. Simple as that. Again, it’s folly to escape it; one must tackle it head on. In order  for such men and women to do this, the right framework is necessary; what is the way for the modern man and woman to live their most accountable lives and have a rational, viable, and non-parasitic relationship and method to raise a family? That is the question that has to be asked and I think the Gold Pill is a very good distillation of that reality.</p>
350<p>I bring this up because I wonder if some cannot see past the traditional historical backdrop of the dowry. I almost didn’t. Again however, I support the discussion because it is meant as an eye-opener to the idea that it is perfectly natural, and quite right, that both sides actually contribute something real and non-fantastical to the relationship.</p>
351<p>
351The traditional dowry was a product of its time in which society perhaps didn’t resemble the relative freedoms and technological lucrativeness we do now, but then it seemed to have served to bring that material accountability to marriages. We can wholeheartedly derive example from this, even if what we ultimately end up with won’t necessarily resemble closely what the dowry did.</p>
352<p>In finding a successor while “taking the Gold Pill”, might I suggest looking into the <a href="https://wiki4men.com/wiki/Modwife#Philosophical_outlook" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Modwife model</a>! Think about it – investment in relationships no longer being one-sided like it’s been for too long. Actual accountability and agency across the board.</p>
