Young men are proving smarter than young women in 2025 Vox Day - Sigma Game

 We had a lot of graduates in our little church this year. All of the boys headed out to work. All the girls to college.

In other words, the young men are correctly focused on building an economic foundation for their lives, a solid one that will serve them well and tend to enhance their SSH, SMV, and MMV by the time they enter their 30s. They are delaying their self-gratification in the interest of improving their long-term prospects.

The young women, on the other hand, are happily entering themselves into a lottery that provides them a much higher chance of ending up alone, barren, and trapped in lifelong debt slavery than with the upper middle class lifestyle they expect to receive on a silver platter upon graduating from university with a college degree.

While it’s good that the young men are learning to avoid crippling their futures, it is a fundamental failure for parents to blithely send off these young women into situations where the odds are not only stacked against them, but heavily stacked against them. The chances that they are going to leave Factory 304 in a better condition than they entered it, with better probabilities for a successful life than they had at the age when they entered, are just not very high......

....A society that does not teach its girls to prioritize marriage and children, and which does not celebrate the women who make the choice to prioritize marriage and children over education, career, and short-term hedonism, is a society that is not destined to thrive and may not even survive.

Lest you think I exaggerate the situation, it may be worth noting that I was one of the very first to point out how the changing sexual demographics of university attendance was inevitably going to have a deleterious effect on marriage rates, and specifically, on women’s ability to find a satisfactory husband, long before the problem was generally recognized.
