00:00:00.000 Sexual morality in an immoral age.
00:00:05.000 This is a requested video from Rui, who wants me to address the topic,
00:00:12.000 how are we supposed to be virtuous men in the whole field of relations between the sexes,
00:00:20.000 given the sheer instability, the sheer schizophrenia to the present sexual marketplace?
00:00:33.000 How are we supposed to uphold God's law when it seems like every choice leads to some sort of violation?
00:00:47.000 Now, I'd like to start this video by looking at the bigger picture of what's going on in our civilization.
00:00:53.000 What is the nature of our present society?
00:00:58.000 And I would say it is, inarguably, an extremely effeminate society.
00:01:04.000 Or, if you prefer the term, it's very yin.
00:01:09.000 It's a very passive society.
00:01:12.000 There is very little yang in this civilization.
00:01:17.000 And you know this.
00:01:19.000 Any time you show any yang, any time you show any activity,
00:01:25.000 there's a boot waiting to stomp on your head.
00:01:31.000 You have just a little bit too much to drink before you drive.
00:01:35.000 And they're going to throw the book at you.
00:01:38.000 You get into a fist fight.
00:01:40.000 You know, you get a little bit too aggressive.
00:01:43.000 And, you know, they'll arrest you for that.
00:01:46.000 You state your bold opinion at work in a polite and civil manner,
00:01:54.000 and you get fired.
00:01:56.000 You see, virtue is the mean between two extremes.
00:02:05.000 Between the extremely active and the extremely passive.
00:02:08.000 Courage, for instance.
00:02:10.000 You have the extreme of foolhardiness.
00:02:15.000 The young men that race their cars dangerously fast,
00:02:20.000 or will get into a fist fight over absolutely nothing,
00:02:23.000 or will do any other number of foolhardy things.
00:02:27.000 That's not virtue.
00:02:30.000 But neither is it virtue to be the coward,
00:02:34.000 to be the intellectual that says,
00:02:36.000 oh, fighting never solves anything.
00:02:38.000 That it's, oh, the consequences aren't worth it.
00:02:41.000 Oh, you never take any risks.
00:02:44.000 That's not virtue either.
00:02:45.000 That's not courage.
00:02:46.000 That's cowardice.
00:02:48.000 Courage is when you are willing to take a risk.
00:02:56.000 You are willing to stand up for something,
00:02:58.000 but you're well aware of the fact that
00:03:01.000 discretion is the better part of valor.
00:03:04.000 That it's almost never the right time to fight.
00:03:08.000 But when it is time to fight, you are willing to go.
00:03:11.000 But here's the thing, with our society,
00:03:18.000 if you err on the too much action,
00:03:21.000 you can get into a lot of trouble.
00:03:24.000 Whereas if you err on too little action, 0.95
00:03:26.000 if you're a coward,
00:03:28.000 well, just keep buying those video games and comic books, 0.99
00:03:32.000 and you're fine. 0.97
00:03:34.000 Nobody is going to punish you for being a coward in today's society. 0.87
00:03:41.000 Now this effeminacy affects the characters of the men and women out there.
00:03:48.000 So for the men, it's fairly obvious.
00:03:51.000 Okay, the very nature of our social environment,
00:03:54.000 of our schools, of our workplaces, 1.00
00:03:57.000 tends to be, act like a pussy. 1.00
00:04:02.000 Act like a wuss. 1.00
00:04:04.000 Act like a weakling. 1.00
00:04:06.000 Don't offend anybody.
00:04:07.000 Be worried about other people's feelings.
00:04:09.000 Be overly cautious about everything.
00:04:12.000 They want you to be walking around stoop-shouldered,
00:04:16.000 looking at your feet.
00:04:21.000 Now for women, this effeminacy takes a different term. 1.00
00:04:25.000 Because effeminacy is not...
00:04:30.000 It's not a strong female principle. 1.00
00:04:34.000 It's not femininity. 1.00
00:04:36.000 It's not an excess of femininity. 0.95
00:04:39.000 It's the passiveness in the female. 1.00
00:04:43.000 See, a woman that is actively trying to be a woman 1.00
00:04:48.000 is going to be actively chaste.
00:04:52.000 She is going to control her sexuality. 1.00
00:04:57.000 She is not going to throw it away at every single chad that walks into the room.
00:05:02.000 At every guy that catches her fancy.
00:05:04.000 She is going to resist that,
00:05:07.000 to emphasize her female nature. 0.99
00:05:10.000 Instead, because these women are so passive with their emotions, 1.00
00:05:14.000 they wind up becoming a mimicry of men.
00:05:18.000 While the men become a mimicry of women. 0.96
00:05:21.000 And so this is the bind we're in.
00:05:26.000 If you screw up and go too far into the active masculinity,
00:05:33.000 there are people waiting to punish you.
00:05:37.000 And furthermore, given that women are so incredibly loose, 1.00
00:05:48.000 if you become...
00:05:49.000 If you are actively pursuing women, 0.98
00:05:51.000 it's very hard not to get sex.
00:05:54.000 So how do you hold to God's law with this situation?
00:06:13.000 Well first, a little bit of context of what exactly is God's law.
00:06:17.000 Because we all know the churches that celebrate the virgin cuck boys,
00:06:23.000 who are not virgin through any great effort of will.
00:06:28.000 They're virgins because they have no other choice. 0.66
00:06:31.000 And again, weak men cannot be virtuous.
00:06:37.000 Dangerous men are needed.
00:06:39.000 Potentially dangerous men that can show the restraint.
00:06:44.000 That's where virtue is.
00:06:47.000 It's easier to become a saint having been an ex-sinner
00:06:52.000 than it is to become a saint if you've never sinned out of weakness.
00:07:02.000 Take this modern crop of atheists that we have. 0.99
00:07:07.000 I was joking with my friend Artistic Layman,
00:07:10.000 because he's always debating these people for some reason.
00:07:13.000 I was saying to him, you know,
00:07:15.000 if you're going to be an atheist,
00:07:17.000 at least do it properly.
00:07:19.000 Just be the greatest hedonist in the world. 0.73
00:07:22.000 Go drink absinthe and seduce tons of women 1.00
00:07:26.000 and thumb your nose at that abyss. 0.98
00:07:31.000 Because the atheist that does that, 0.97
00:07:34.000 that actually goes and experiences life to that extent,
00:07:38.000 that person might just repent.
00:07:46.000 But instead, we have these atheists that, 1.00
00:07:50.000 they really just use it as a cover-up for their moral cowardice, 0.97
00:07:55.000 for their weakness.
00:07:57.000 It's this little teddy bear they hold on to,
00:08:00.000 to tell them that they're smarter than everybody else.
00:08:02.000 And that, oh, they don't need to be an alpha chad,
00:08:04.000 because, because whatever.
00:08:09.000 And I see so many of them winding up,
00:08:12.000 like that character in C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters,
00:08:17.000 who showed up in hell and said, 0.56
00:08:19.000 I now realize that I spent my entire life
00:08:22.000 neither doing what I wanted,
00:08:24.000 nor what I ought to have done.
00:08:31.000 So right off the bat,
00:08:33.000 this passivity,
00:08:35.000 this weakness,
00:08:38.000 that's all, get that off your table. 0.99
00:08:40.000 That's not even a choice.
00:08:42.000 Literally anything is better than weakness and cowardice and passivity.
00:08:51.000 You know, maybe if we lived in a different society,
00:08:53.000 if you lived in ancient Rome,
00:08:55.000 where they were a little bit too active, perhaps,
00:08:58.000 then having that reflective quality,
00:09:01.000 that ability to hold back, that passivity,
00:09:04.000 would have been virtuous.
00:09:05.000 But right now, in this passive, effeminate society,
00:09:08.000 we need more masculine men. 0.99
00:09:15.000 So passivity, off the table.
00:09:18.000 Don't have time for passivity.
00:09:27.000 And let's consider just what God's law is.
00:09:29.000 Fornication,
00:09:36.000 if you search the root meaning,
00:09:38.000 if you search the definition,
00:09:40.000 if you look at the society that this came out of, 0.99
00:09:46.000 fornication literally means hiring prostitutes. 1.00
00:09:50.000 The sort of man who was a loose cad, 0.98
00:09:57.000 200 years ago, 0.98
00:10:01.000 was doing it because he was spending money on prostitutes.
00:10:07.000 And I don't think I need to make a big argument
00:10:09.000 that there's a huge difference.
00:10:11.000 There is a continent of difference
00:10:17.000 between your intellectual hedonist
00:10:22.000 that takes advantage of the loose moors of the civilization
00:10:26.000 to rack up as many notches on his bedpost as he can get,
00:10:30.000 versus the trust fund baby
00:10:33.000 that manages to get women around him all the time
00:10:36.000 because he takes them out for dinner and has a fast car.
00:10:40.000 And it's soft prostitution, 1.00
00:10:42.000 but it's still prostitution. 1.00
00:10:48.000 World of difference between the two.
00:10:54.000 And that's the thing,
00:10:55.000 the ancient, the cads,
00:10:57.000 200 years ago,
00:10:58.000 were the trust fund babies. 0.90
00:10:59.000 They were buying prostitutes, 0.98
00:11:01.000 or they were paying for loose women. 1.00
00:11:02.000 They were paying for mistresses. 0.90
00:11:04.000 It was no great masculine virtue
00:11:08.000 that attracted these women to them. 0.98
00:11:10.000 It was the fact that they were born into wealth. 0.99
00:11:14.000 So, fornication
00:11:17.000 points towards that,
00:11:19.000 to prostitution,
00:11:20.000 to using money to get women. 0.83
00:11:23.000 In other words,
00:11:24.000 women that wouldn't sleep with you 1.00
00:11:25.000 if you didn't have the money.
00:11:30.000 And I don't think that's what you're worried about.
00:11:32.000 I don't think that's what most of you guys are worried about.
00:11:40.000 The next thing to consider
00:11:42.000 is,
00:11:44.000 look at the Old Testament.
00:11:46.000 Look at what sort of men
00:11:48.000 were considered beloved by God.
00:11:51.000 We've got men
00:11:54.000 like King David
00:11:56.000 and King Solomon,
00:11:58.000 both of whom,
00:12:00.000 at times, 0.99
00:12:01.000 allowed themselves to get led around by the dick. 1.00
00:12:04.000 These were potent, 1.00
00:12:06.000 virile men
00:12:08.000 that liked women. 0.99
00:12:10.000 Sometimes too much,
00:12:11.000 and sometimes they did bad things because of this.
00:12:13.000 And yet they're described as beloved by God.
00:12:16.000 There's a third factor to consider in all of this,
00:12:31.000 because it's sleeping around.
00:12:33.000 While not fornication,
00:12:35.000 you have to ask yourself,
00:12:38.000 is it good for the women? 1.00
00:12:40.000 And let's be frank,
00:12:42.000 it isn't.
00:12:44.000 While there's no specific biblical prohibitions on men sleeping around,
00:12:48.000 there is justice that the fathers can seek out,
00:12:51.000 but these days the fathers are giving the daughters birth control
00:12:53.000 and sending them off to university. 1.00
00:12:55.000 Fathers don't care if you turn their daughters into sluts. 1.00
00:13:00.000 Fathers don't want justice for it. 0.99
00:13:02.000 Society doesn't want justice for it.
00:13:03.000 Nobody wants justice for it.
00:13:05.000 So should you get your beak wet in the trough?
00:13:13.000 Well, what's the alternative?
00:13:17.000 Being a shrinking violet
00:13:21.000 and a wallflower?
00:13:22.000 Part of developing into a man is that you need to understand women.
00:13:39.000 And you can read all the books you want.
00:13:42.000 You can study all the data sheets.
00:13:47.000 But until you've been out there pursuing,
00:13:50.000 it's like trying to learn hunting from a manual.
00:13:58.000 You can learn a lot from a manual,
00:14:00.000 but you actually need to get out there into the wilderness
00:14:03.000 and hunt down that moose.
00:14:05.000 As a young man, with your hormones raging,
00:14:18.000 with them being inflamed by the pornographied society that we have, 0.97
00:14:22.000 with the shameless, loose women that we have, 1.00
00:14:25.000 with the shameless, loose women that we have. 1.00
00:14:33.000 You need to get out there and engage in it. 0.99
00:14:35.000 You either need to become a hermit,
00:14:40.000 or you need to get out there.
00:14:46.000 You need to go learn a little bit of hunting first-hand.
00:14:49.000 You need to see how these creatures behave in the wild.
00:14:52.000 You need to figure out what they are at their very core.
00:14:57.000 Because women are something very, very different from us. 1.00
00:15:01.000 They are so different you can't even really put it into words.
00:15:04.000 Mencken wrote entire books trying to explain it.
00:15:12.000 And yet, it's the sort of thing that you can't explain to somebody
00:15:14.000 who doesn't already understand it.
00:15:16.000 And the only way you understand it is you go out there
00:15:19.000 and experience what women are like. 1.00
00:15:22.000 Now, if you want, you could be like Wentworth in my novel,
00:15:36.000 which was based off of something I heard
00:15:38.000 Canadian Forces Sniper say once.
00:15:40.000 That he would love to go hunting,
00:15:42.000 but he has no desire to kill an animal.
00:15:46.000 And so my character Wentworth went hunting,
00:15:49.000 but he intentionally shot the tree next to the deer.
00:15:55.000 Because he had no need to kill the deer.
00:15:58.000 He just needed to know that he could.
00:16:00.000 He needed to understand it.
00:16:02.000 He needed to get out there and stalk it.
00:16:13.000 Now that said,
00:16:15.000 a rifle ricochet off a tree is far more evidence than
00:16:20.000 Don't you know the guy that convinces himself he's good with women 1.00
00:16:23.000 when he's a completely creepy incel?
00:16:32.000 So again, get out there.
00:16:35.000 I can't tell you what you should do specifically.
00:16:38.000 You need to figure this out.
00:16:40.000 Part of virtue is coming to understand all of these things,
00:16:43.000 to grow and to course correct.
00:16:47.000 You know, and sometimes it's a bit left,
00:16:48.000 and sometimes it's a bit right.
00:16:49.000 Sometimes you're in choppy waters.
00:16:59.000 And going straight north will slam you into some rocks.
00:17:04.000 At the end of the day, what you need to do is get good.
00:17:15.000 You can't run from this problem.
00:17:18.000 And if you don't understand women,
00:17:21.000 oh yeah, you might eventually get married,
00:17:23.000 and you're going to think everything is fine
00:17:25.000 until she divorces you out of nowhere.
00:17:28.000 Because you've been living in this passive delusion.
00:17:33.000 You need to get out there.
00:17:34.000 You need to be active.
00:17:36.000 You need to engage with women. 0.54
00:17:38.000 Flirt with them.
00:17:39.000 Talk to them.
00:17:40.000 Pursue them.
00:17:42.000 Chase them around the woods a little bit.
00:17:50.000 And if you go too far,
00:17:52.000 if you get yourself into trouble, repent.
00:17:53.000 And then get back on that horse.
00:17:58.000 And ride again.
00:18:04.000 Best of luck, brother.
00:18:06.000 Deus Volt.
00:18:08.000 Irini.
00:18:09.000 Out.
00:18:24.000 2
00:18:41.000 2
