why do men lack critical thinking?

Yup, I’ve noticed a lot of men in real life are the same way. They don’t have minds of their own and go with whatever man, with the loudest voice, has to say. All this talk of men being “natural-born leaders” is nonsense because a lot of them lack confidence in themselves and therefore can’t lead themselves, let alone other men, women or children.

A lot of men are mentally lazy while others are afraid to carve out paths for themselves because fitting in with other stupid men is more important than standing out for the right reasons and being on their own.

If a man that has a large platform says that all men should fall off a cliff, many men would follow and if the man said that all men should start reading books to become entitled, men would follow yet again. A lot of men can’t function on their own; they constantly need others to lead them.

At the end of the day, they really don’t care what women think in the vast majority of cases. They care what men think. They know women hate their behavior, they know that it’s keeping them from finding partners. They don’t change because other men encourage that behavior. NVM are, paradoxically, the biggest pick-mes of all.

Funnily enough, the recent uptick in men deciding to walk away from porn just seems like another example of men centering only themselves. This sudden concern about the harmful effects of porn and porn addiction pertains exclusively to how it affects MEN- how porn and "death grip" fapping causes PIED, how it wrecks and hijacks the brain's reward system, how it causes their penis to gradually become desensitized to the physical pleasure of real sex, how it's a time-consuming addiction, etc. 99% of the time, there's zero conversation among men about how degrading and violent porn is toward women, teen girls, etc. It's like the thought never crosses their mind that they should stop consuming porn out of solidarity with women. Is that not reason enough? Even though some men are starting to step away from porn, there's still such a blatant lack of empathy for women's humanity. It seems like, yet again, this is just about their peepees.

It is scary when you encounter this lack of critical thinking from men in research. I recently had to give a critical article review on a paper which was published research on men's fear of intimacy, gender socialisation and not visiting a medical practitioner as much as women do.

Yes, the data does show women go more than men to a medical professional but instead of trying to work out why this is (spoiler alert it is good old misogny in the medical field), the men assumed women were getting treated properly and that men must not be going as much for some reason.

This is despite published research, done prior to what they carried out, confirming women get misdiagnosed, not diagnosed and given lower dosages of pain medication and need to visit more often to correct this. Instead they assume men aren't doing as well as women and this needs investigating. It seems to be this ingrained belief men are better than women and if reality show women doing better or more than men for any reason, then there needs to be lots of effort into help men.

And yes, there is research which shows when compared for the same thing men and women go as much as each other to a medical practitioner and also avoid going to a medical practitioner in equal rates.

Sorry, slight vent.

I hate to say this, but most people lack critical thinking. Yes, libfems, I am talking about you.

I'm not a geneticist but it's interesting that all men have one common ancestor from only 100,000 years ago, yet our common ancestor is Mitochondrial Eve. I was looking for a paper that explored commonalities between men from across the world for this reason, seems to be buried now. Lots of "Are Men More Evolved Than Women?" I haven't seen before. Why would an organism evolve to become genetically weaker and inferior?

My last male “friend” (who I made a post about on this forum) actually took a beginners philosophy class with me thinking it’d be easy (it was). He failed it and the unit was called “Critical Thinking Skills” and proceeded to blame it on "the institution brainwashing us into the Hive and forcing us to interact with homo teachers who want to f*ck our innocent children”… what?? Just admit you can’t construct a basic argument.

Porn destroys prefrontal cortexes and empathy

Stupid people are incapable of knowing they are stupid.

I have never met a man with critical thinking skills ever. What you've just described is every man I have ever met. They get angry when you point out their flawed logic. Now I let them talk , analyze the red flags then ghost. I no longer have the energy for these idiots.

Homosociality

TLDR: The male will not understand why the female does not just accept his products as they "have the same basic function".

The female understands that they do have the same BASIC function but she needs something more than basic.

Thought exercise: In hypothetical land…

Think of a female's shopping list for personal hygiene products compared to that of her male counterpart.

The female’s list is inevitably going to be longer, especially if she has children.

The male’s list will have items that appear in some form on the female’s list.

Females with pickmeshia traits are more likely to consider sacrificing their similar items which will:

• imply they are going to use his - probably sub par - items instead of their own

• reduce their list and overall cost

The problem is that the male’s items don’t quite match the females. They will not 💯 do what your products used to do. They may even cause an adverse reaction to the female, e.g. rashes on her skin.

This is an example of males struggling with the critical thinking.
