    This video, which is an excerpt from a book, I found of value:

    It also goes into the moment you marry and have kids, your social life will also take a nosedive, and if you don’t, why your friends will end up going away. If you don’t mind some Aaron Clarey, then feel free to watch the video.

    Yes, it is of very high value.

    Friends tell me that I “must have” an IQ over 140. I haven’t tested it yet but my life story is identical.

    If you like reading, here it is.

    It is far from finish, but it covers most of my time in “women’s hell” as a child and young boy.

    Gargamel's 7-part MGTOW story introduction – as a work in progress

    In July of 2018, this honey pot forum was sold out to an unidentified NPC sock puppet and troll organization. Most independent thinkers and writers migrated to other MGTOW forums as a result of the never-ending infighting and deliberate trouble starting caused by members who were given "carte blanche" by the admin to do whatever they want. Before my departure, I only left a few thousand cat pics here to comfort and ridicule the feminist owners who now run this place. Their background agenda is to make MGTOW look like a club of losers the public eye. And during the course of 2019, they actually managed to destroy almost all other MGTOW venues as well. Here is the truth about "theindependentman.org" aka "TIM" which was created as an extended workbench to further divide the community.

    The vid is gender-neutral. There are additional points relevant only for men.

    First, the intelligence curve of men has its peak at a higher intelligence than women. Means, on average, men are more intelligent. That is by about 5 IQ points or so. Sounds little, but in terms of percentage, that is already a lot. Remember that IQ=100 is defined as “only 50% of the people are above 100”.

    Second, the curve shape for women is much more narrow. That means, you have much fewer total drop-outs than with men, but also much fewer high IQ women than high IQ men. Which is one of the reasons why nobel prize winners, chess masters etc. are mostly men.

    I myself have taken some IQ tests, and the result varied between 140 and 160. IQ 145+ means about 0.15% of the people. My conclusion was that these numbers don’t mean much except one thing, that I’m simply somewhere outside the range of average people towards whom the tests are geared. A drop-out on the high side.

    However, the vid misses an important point. If “social life” comes down to “dumb oneself down to surround onseself with people”, then it isn’t much attrition to see it crumble down. If you are in that IQ range, you may have had socialising for some time in your life.

    But you have always been alone.

    Social skills can be learned. Watch a PUA video and use the skills for good not evil.

    NOW having a social life takes a lot of effort. You will need to be the one always calling and asking friends to get together to watch a game or go out. Hosting parties is expensive. It’s like being a wedding planner. Some people do this naturally because they love doing it. If you watch them close they are always the ones working it, it just doesn’t bother them to do so.

    If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.

    Doesn’t change much. The question remains: why? If I go abroad for my company, ok, it’s because I get money in doing so. Of course I’ll read about what people are like there and have no problem to tune in. Fun fact, they were really pleased with how I was doing abroad – and took that for social competence. Guess what a laughter I had.
