This video gave a lot on insight to marriage. This is not about clowns, just regular people.

I think this is an interesting topic. However, the interviewed professor Scott Galloway is a Known Asshole who admits he struggles with narcissisism, and the CNN guy interviewing him often has folks like Galloway on his show because the CNN guy is incapable of having an original thought of his own.

There have been some pretty good articles on the subject that are more fair and balanced with respect to men and women, and there are some good Reddit threads in which ordinary folks give their thoughts, a concept that likely never occurs to the asshole Scott Galloway - I doubt that he does any teaching (probably leaves it to his graduate assistants), but pity the college child who would raise his or her hand in class.

The truth of the matter is that there are, and will be, solutions to this supposed crisis.

Some of them are the heroes here on Terb. The moralistic Pilgrims from Massachusetts famously asked their country cousins up in Maine how it was possible for there to be such an imbalance of men to women in the extreme wilderness of Maine. They were horrified when they were told that one woman can keep as many men happy as can fit on a boat. That was in the Wall Street Journal once. Think how many guys the girls here on Terb keep happy.

Every year there are inventions and innovations that reduce labor. The world won’t need as many people in the long-term future.

Many people work in invented, inefficient industries. Law, Accounting, and Government Regulations and Bureaucracy come to mind. And the Entertainment Industry. It can be reduced or eliminated if necessary for the workers to do something else.

And if you really study the numbers, it is the First World that is suffering a population decline. It is really a matter of immigration if more workers are needed. That brings up all the debates regarding immigration and culture. To me, the U.S. and Canada are melting pots. We may have to accept the influx of new cultures. Life goes on.

Regarding inefficient industries, I wonder about housing. Half of the homes in Scandinavia are modular(factory built).
The first world has been suffering a population decline but it has been spreading(or at least declining birth rates). I think Africa is the only hold out now.

I think when the Baby Boomers die off, it will help with the housing crisis.

NYU professor Scott Galloway is a young Baby Boomer, so he will be around for a while, however.

Telling young men to go out and get laid more (presumably not with a TERB escort), so they can be more like he was as a young narcissist.

I think Galloway is not blaming men for this he's blaming what society has done to devalue them and too many of the young blokes are now lost. In usa and Oz the "crisis" in the 70s was about women's education and rights. That moved forward and now women are often overrepresented in uni. But some of that hurt the blokes, including the loss of male oriented physical labor.
I am not 100% sure if I totally agree but I think that's his argument.
He makes the argument that I do find true which is aimless humiliated men = danger. You get incels, street gangs, Aryan supremacy, people falling for Andrew Tate and his ilk, and also terrorists who lash out at the rest of society.

Article from 2021
Mature single women are wealthier than mature single men, StatsCan finds | Investment Executive


StatsCan noted that over the past 40 years, women have moved toward higher-paying jobs and increased their presence in the public sector — which typically offers registered pension plans (RPPs) — while the unionization rates of men have “dropped sharply.”



“For these reasons, the wealth holdings and pension plan assets — an important wealth component — of unattached women may have increased at a faster pace than those of unattached men,” StatsCan suggested.

This isn’t news. The wage gap only occurs when comparing married men with children to women. Single women have out-earned single men for decades.

Not news to me. But still news to a lot of people and publications. For example, feminist publications like the Toronto Star never print anything like this.
Also, it is the pensions that make a big difference to total wealth. They have most of the government jobs.

Seems that left leaning governments have been playing this game of lying with statistics for decades. Lucky for them most of population believe everything they read in mainstream newspapers or news reports.

Just watching a few of this guy’s videos will raise your brain IQ points.

If this is real, it is a solid WTF!?!?!?
I do remember in one of Jared Diamond's books about a research study on heritability of blood types from the 1950s where the scientist suppressed the results because it would have been scandalous- it showed almost 10% of the kids could not have been fathered by the man they believed was their biological father.
