Are You Gonna Think, or Emote?

Seen on a TV show: a female character saying, when confronted with a potentially sticky situation: “I don’t know how I feel about this.” When I heard that, I thought, “yep, that’s the female mentality in a nutshell.” The female mentality is all about how something feels. Forget logic or reason. It’s all about emotion. Furthermore, that’s the same mentality of the political Left as well [1]. For example, whether a minimum-wage hike really works or not doesn’t matter. It feels good, so the liberals want it. In fact, since women and liberals now run America, we should change our national anthem, and instead use the 1974 hit song “Feelings” (“whoa, whoa, whoa, feelings…”).
.

[1] that’s why most political violence comes from leftists: they are more emotional and so they act without thinking rationally. This is also why women shouldn’t be involved in politics/government

      I see what you are saying.

      But I also am a “feeler” in the Myers-Briggs scheme of things.

      Feeling is not irrational; it is simply a way of knowing.

      There are many “thinkers” who are liberal and divorced from reality.

      I think that is the determining factor is: Does this person know reality, has he sweated, gone home exhausted every day of spring and summer, felt the bite of the winter air on his fingers so much that it actually hurts like hell; does he even know that he has muscles, glands and organs?

      I am convinced that most liberals do not know what a body is, or how it has traditionally functioned in reality. They think that sex is recreation and that their legs only exist to take their mouth to different restaurants.

      “Everyone’s Gone to the Moon” by Johnathan King

      Streets full of people
      All alone
      Roads full of houses
      Never home
      Church full of singing
      Out of tune
      Everyone’s gone to the moon

      Eyes full of sorrow
      Never wet
      Hands full of money
      All in debt
      Sun coming out in
      The middle of June
      Everyone’s gone to the moon

      Long time ago
      Life has begun
      Everyone went to the sun

      Cars full of motors
      Painted green
      Mouths full of chocolate
      Covered cream
      Arms that can only
      Lift a spoon
      Everyone’s gone to the moon

      Everyone’s gone to the moon
      Everyone’s gone to the moon

      Men are more likely to engage in violence, or waste money on a grand scale. How many women buy boats?

      Men also do much more cocaine and heroin. Even successful young men talented in science and business.

      How many serious gamblers are women?

      Maybe men have less emotions than women, but the type of emotions they have, and their intensity, can cause serious problems.

      However, emotions can also be valuable as important indicators. One should analyze one’s significant feelings. The old saying “when in doubt, don’t” is often true. Justice Sandra O’Connor is said to have had an embroidered pillow which said “perhaps in error, never in doubt.”

      Also, one should esp. never ignore fear, because sometimes when confronted with a real physical danger, the emotional reaction occurs immediately, before the intellect has time to fully process the exact cause. For example, a person may recognize a threat (such as, a certain car parked along the street), but not consciously realize the object of the fear until much later. That’s why sometimes people will report after an incident occurs that they just had a feeling that they should avoid the situation.

      But the point here is that too many women in leadership positions is detrimental to the business and government functioning well.

      Most women are poor leaders; not because they necessarily have poor judgment, but rather because the majority of women, even some talented women, don’t value leadership the way men do. Overly self-absorbed, most women, see having an important supervisory job as only bossing other people around, indulging in arrogance, and buying a whole closet full of shoes. They only rarely take an intense interest in the work itself.

      Yet even the man of average ability will pride himself on what small leadership ability he has. He generally enjoys sharing his knowledge with other employees. He has strong ideas of fairness, and considers the big picture. The male manager or supervisor finds it much easier to delegate; he tends to trust his subordinates more, and treat them as adults. He almost always takes a strong interest in the business or the profession.

      An additional difficulty is that most supervisory jobs have a political aspect; basically one usually has to “know someone” to even be considered. Many women managers and supervisors and women in other leadership positions are placed there because of who their husband/boyfriend/father is.

      (Affirmative Action is also unfair, but it does not help White women advance that much, unless they are in an industry with few other women).

      Whether the job candidate has experience working for a Soros front (or similar org) on the resume also acts as an unfair criteria of selection for jobs esp. in law.

      Leftism wants us to have bad leaders who lack merit; because keeping everyone fearful and insecure works to their advantage. They want no other form of authority to exist, except the government itself.

    3. Mary O Says:

      By the way, raising the minimum wage may discourage immigration. Employers of illegal aliens could be prosecuted for underpaying them; thereby eliminating the main advantage in hiring them.

    4. Socrates Says:

      Mary O. says: “Most women are poor leaders; not because they necessarily have poor judgment, but rather because the majority of women, even some talented women, don’t value leadership the way men do. Overly self-absorbed, most women, see having an important supervisory job as only bossing other people around, indulging in arrogance, and buying a whole closet full of shoes. They only rarely take an intense interest in the work itself.”

      As bosses, women are usually big compromisers, trying to please everybody, which leaves all parties feeling dissatisfied, since no party gets exactly what they want out of a deal. At least with a male boss, one party comes away from a deal completely satisfied.

    5. -JC Says:

      Mary O makes assertion after assertion; she’d be correct about raising the minimum wage if prosecutions were a reasonable expectation. Whites might be prosecuted for underpaying African “refugees.”

      “Men” also behaved like Jonathan King, in 1965, but women then were more inclined to interpret the times thusly:

      For the most part, women are terrible managers. A cartel of militant librarians almost shut-down Faulk Central Library in Austin, Texas. Destitute of skillful management, they ruled in the insolence of power. People avoided the place and circulation dropped to such a low level the library hours were cut way back.

      Too emotional……

    7. Socrates Says:

      Yes, fd, women bosses are too emotional and they take everything personally, even when it isn’t personal. If you’re looking for a boss with an even, consistent temperament, you won’t find a woman to fill that role. Also, they change their minds too quickly and easily.

    8. Antagonistes Says:

      There is a female “feeler” type, and a male “feeler” type.

      The Feuhrer, as an artist, was a male “feeler,” I think.

      It is the feelers who start things, who have the fire. It is true that they need the counsel of thinkers, later on, after they have gotten things started, but they must not let the thinkers turn their fire into a damp, soggy mush.

      Many Whites are afraid of feeling types, because they think of Negroes or Pentecostals. But feeling is not going berserk—it is a conviction that you feel in your bones.

    9. rigor mortis Says:

      E.O. Wilson attributes modern societies dysfunction to 3 things: 1. Paleolithic emotions 2. Medieval institutions 3. God-like technology. The Jews have been able to manipulate all 3 to destroy the White race, with their religious card Christinsanity

    10. Antagonistes Says:

      Paleolithic emotions?

      I would like the see the Germans and the French go full-paleo on the immigrants!

      And the Americans go full-paleo on the liberals!

      I attribute modern societies’ dysfunction to:

      1. Lack of authentic emotions 2. Liberal institutions 3. God-like egos of the elites

      White people have no spirit. Everything goes down. The overwhelming majority rejects light and life.
