#1 A potential key takeaway:

The beginning of civilization was when the first man instead of pummeling another man into the ground with his club chose to hit him only once, establish dominance, and then make a pact of friendship. You find something like that in almost every early saga of humanity.

You never find that among women. Women don’t fight for dominance and then become best friends. Because that’s not how female dominance works.

#2 I can't agree with this oversimplification of how societal dysfunction in women got here, nevertheless we are here now.

Somehow, I've never met these women. Maybe I was lucky. Probably because western ideas arrive in my part of the world at very slow speed. They are met with an ideological sieve so potent that it almost always reduces them to harmless 'fads' and 'quirks' for individuals rather than movements.

And that's an idea. Strong roots and militant defence of culture, even if it's empty, ridiculous hubris like in India. America had so much better. Maybe instead of looking to history and biology and caveman psychology, we should acknowledge the forsaking of our roots. The christian archetypes we should have imitated, the ideals which created men and women with grit enough to get through world wars and depressions together without turning on each other like beasts.

In my opinion, this thing called toxic femininity is just a symptom of the larger spiritual putrefaction. A manifestation of the spirit of Jezebel in wayward women, seeking to murder the righteous and steer Ahab, today's p↻ssywhipped buffoon toward folly. All you need to do to avoid them in your life is to not be an Ahab. Be an Elisha. Or at least be cautious like Jehoshaphat.

#4 Two adolescent boys fight. They make up and become friends.

Two adolescent girls fight. In the end, there can be only one.

Mean Girls indeed. See - petty cliques
