(if any) It looks goofy to researchers today.

Can we at least all agree that Feliz Navidad is one of the better Christmas tunes, though? Re: THE WAR ON XMAS, I worked at a Starbucks the year that they had the plain red cups for Christmas (which I think was the year before last now?), and I was really amused by the fact that despite every store having Christmas poo poo everywhere, Christmas music playing on the radio, special Christmas drinks, special Christmas coffee beans, blatant references to Christmas in all of the winter advertising, and Starbucks advent calendars, we were still destroying Christmas by not having overt references to baby Jesus and Santa on the cups which everyone throws away anyway. I'm also still mad that my store sold out of the advent calendars before I could get one

Even calling it "the war on Christmas" is ceding their point. Instead, call it "The War of Christmas Aggression". Day after Thanksgiving, not a single day sooner.

Electric Lady posted:"Baby, It's Cold Outside" is the ultimate creepy holiday song. "Say, what's in this drink?" That's actually a common misconception! The song was written in a time when it would be considered improper for a lady to spend the night at a man's house when they weren't married, and in general women were viewed with a suspicious eye if they did anything vaguely unscrupulous like show independence. The woman's dialogue in the song points out all the reasons why she shouldn't stay even though she wants to, like her gossipy aunt or the neighbors thinking poorly of her. As such, it wasn't uncommon back then for women to pass off such decisions by claiming to be under the influence. Rather than a song about date rape, it's a song about two lovers using the pretext of alcohol and bad weather to spend the evening together without suspicion. It just looks bad today when this kind of treatment of women has diminished, and we lack the historical context to get it.

When mainstreamers read the red pill on women, they read it as “women are evil and dangerous”. Well, women are certainly dangerous, but not exactly evil, rather subject to volcanically powerful sexual impulses that are apt to have disastrous consequences for themselves and everyone around them. Now, me, I would gently caress every fertile age woman I meet if I could. The little man gives pretty much all of them the salute. Obviously women are not like that, so men tend to interpret female behavior as women are less interested in sex than men – which rapidly becomes women are pure, women are angels, women belong on pedestals. Not so. It is that men are polygynous, women are hypergamous. A woman will crawl nine miles over broken glass to gently caress her demon lover. And then not give her husband the time of day. Conversely, if your wife does not much want to gently caress you, she is loving her demon lover. If she is fertile age, and is disrespectful and disinclined to gently caress you, she is going to leave, destroying all your assets and ruining the lives of your children. Fertile age women need sex, quite a lot of sex. If she does not need sex with you, you have a big problem. Conversely, if you fail to gratify her pretty regularly, you are going to have a big problem. In real life I regularly see women behaving badly with disastrous consequences for themselves, their husband, and their children. Yet I never see this in the media or in fiction. In this, the media presents us with a wildly false image. Women themselves are deceived, and their own bad behavior and the resulting evil consequences catches them by surprise. Old legends present a more accurate and realistic picture of women. For example King Gradlon and the City of Ys. King Gradlon was raider based in Cornwall, but on one of his raids to the cold North, his armies melt away because of bad weather and logistic failure, and he is left all alone. Then he meets Queen Malgven who proposes that he should kill her husband and steal the royal treasury, so King Gradlon gets back to Kinging again. His wife bears a sea witch daughter, Dahut. When Dahut becomes a teenager, she prevails on her father to build the city of Ys, which is built below high tide level, protected by dikes. The city of Ys is a big success. Many people migate to Ys. It is a popular and successful pagan city based on sea trade. At low tide the sea gates open to allow ships into its port. Every so often his daughter sacrifices someone to the sea. Then a sea demon arrives, makes love to his daughter, and prevails on her to open her gates to the sea at high tide, and the entire city drowns. Female voting behavior in Europe is well explained by the theory that women rather like rape. They are importing the rapeugees to do the raping that white men will not do. Female resistance to rape is a poo poo test intended to separate the strong rapist from the weak. Similarly, if you see a woman alone in a twenty four hour laundromat, late at night when there is no one around, she is a single woman, because if she was married her husband would not permit it. Or if he is too weak to stop her, she will not be married very much longer. Female sexuality and reproductive capability needs to be kept under male control and male supervision. If women have control of their own bodies, they are apt to behave badly.
