The Rational Ram

And Why You Should Never Trust Them Cheaters don’t look dangerous. They don’t announce themselves. And they rarely believe they’re the villain. In fact, the people most likely to cheat often appear charming, empathetic, desirable, and “relationship-minded.” That’s what makes them dangerous—not a lack of charisma or competence, but a lack of internal constraint. Cheating […]

The Influencers Who Lied to You (On Both Sides) Everyone wants sex to be recreational because no one wants to take responsibility for the consequences that often come with sex. So we outsourced the lie to influencers. The manosphere sold it as dominance. Modern feminism sold it as empowerment. Different branding. Same damage. The Manosphere […]

Some people throw a party after surviving cancer. Others throw one after surviving a car crash or recovering from a major surgery. But throwing a party because you blew up your marriage—or picked someone who made it implode—isn’t “empowerment…” It’s delusion dressed up with champagne and a hashtag. Divorce is sometimes necessary. It can even […]

People love pretending age affects men and women the same way in dating. It doesn’t. Not even close. Biology, psychology, desirability cues, and social dynamics hit men and women differently. I preface the breakdown below by saying that what drives the difference in experience between older men and older women in dating is rooted in […]

If you feel like you’re working for love while someone else gets it for free—you’re not insecure. You’re being strategically tolerated. I’ve posted about the dual-mating strategy on this blog many times in the recent past. To recapitulate what this strategy entails, some men and women a want BOTH a “safe and secure” mate as […]

And the Industry Knows It Let’s drop the polite language. If the shoe below fits, sorry, not sorry… If you scream at refs, rearrange your mood around the outcome of games, buy expensive jerseys every year, defend billion-dollar leagues like they’re family, and insist “this is different from WWE”—You’re not a fan, you’re a mark. […]

His & Hers Edition Preface: I previously posted two separate posts on this subject. This post combines my thoughts from the two separate posts and provides links to those posts. 👍🏿 Dating between 40 and 50+ is not an extension of your 20s—it’s a different game with different incentives, different risks, and far less margin […]

CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) surgery saved my life in the acute sense. Zepbound is helping me extend my life and give it quality. Those two statements are not in conflict—and pretending they are is one of the dumbest, most dangerous narratives in modern health culture. This is not a story about shortcuts. I’m not […]

What Actually Keeps a Man Dating in your 40s and 50s isn’t about chasing excitement or proving you “still have it.” Men at this stage aren’t looking for spark alone—they’re looking for peace, loyalty, and emotional adulthood. This is what actually keeps a man. 1. Peace is more attractive than passion Chemistry opens the door. […]

What Actually Works Dating in your 40s and 50s isn’t about being impressive anymore—it’s about being selective, grounded, and intolerant of nonsense. The men who do best in the dating market at this stage in life aren’t chasing attention or trying to relive their 30s. They’re calm, decisive, and quietly unavailable to chaos. This is […]
