I understand he's a younger guy (at least that's what I get from his writing), so I wanted to call it out. There are men walking around with belief systems like his that don't say it out loud, so it can't be corrected.

But yes, I do understand where he's coming from, which is why I took the time to read it in the first place. Since the beginning of time men have only really pursued activities to impress the ladies.

They get a job
Buy a nice car
Work out at the gym
Learn to play guitar
Etc

All in the hopes of winning the best female prize.

But where he went wrong was assuming it's women's job to be motivation for men. What's lacking is intrinsic motivation. They've relied on external motivation, which as we all know is unsustainable.

So instead of saying women need to keep making themselves available to men (at their own expense) so the men can be functioning human beings, they need to learn intrinsic motivation. They need to make themselves whole (with therapy, and/or becoming active, and/or making friends, etc.) and they need to figure out what they bring to a woman's life to enhance it before trying to find a partner.

They need to be able to answer the question How am I an asset to my partner (besides financially)? Instead of being desperate to find a woman whom he will most definitely deplete of her resources, since he is not able to be a good partner in his current state.
