As I have always maintained, Western civilization is more, not less, sexist than those which it colonized:
https://theconversation.com/how-colonialism-is-a-major-cause-of-domestic-abuse-against-women-around-the-world-179257
Postcolonial scholars have been telling us as much for decades. From widespread poverty to racial discrimination and gender inequalities, colonisation put in place systems and structures that are often at the root of heightened violence against women.
Colonial policies
Many colonial systems of governance were based on “racialising” the local population: categorising and marginalising groups of people according to race or ethnicity. For example, the divisions between Hindus and Muslims in pre-partition India and the racial hierarchy instituted in apartheid South Africa. These divisions have provided the fodder for many of the world’s contemporary armed conflicts. Scholars talk about colonial durabilities to describe the way in which colonial histories continue to actively shape the world today.
...
Many colonial systems of governance also established regulations and legal frameworks that were particularly damaging for women. Despite the fact that both men and women were in positions of leadership in pre-colonial Nigeria, British colonial officials refused to negotiate with female chiefs. They also put in place a system of land ownership that explicitly excluded women.
The legacy of these policies is that women are still far less likely to own land than men in Nigeria. A recent study of national data has shown that women who do not own land are more likely to report domestic violence than those that do. This is because land ownership gives women income and power within a relationship. It also gives them options when they need somewhere to go. Women who have power and alternatives are simply less likely to put up with violence and more likely to leave.

Women suffered more under colonial rule than men. In addition, early histories of the time ignore women's struggles for independence. Women don't appear much in the official records of that time because they were forbidden to participate in government or business. In some cases, colonial rulers forced women to live as Europeans thought they should, as mothers, wives and home keepers. But before European occupation those same women may have held positions of power in their community.
Colonial rulers and warrant chiefs in Nigeria
Colonial rulers generally only accepted males in roles of authority. For example, before colonial times, communities in Southeastern Nigeria were run by groups of men and women rather than single leaders. But colonial occupiers would only work with male "chiefs." Since there weren't any, the British chose random men to be leaders and called these men "warrant chiefs." These warrant chiefs―supported by colonial rulers―acted as judges and had a lot of power. This included power often over women who had previously been a part of political rule. Women also struggled to make money under colonial rule. In many West African societies before colonialism, women farmed and participated in local business. Most able-bodied women were either farmers or merchants. In southern Nigeria, for example, all members of a family farmed the family land.
Women helped produce important crops like palm oil in Igbo societies, and cocoa in the Yoruba societies. However, British colonialists brought the concept of individual land ownership to Nigeria and only allowed men to be landowners, so women found it difficult to make money from these important cash crops. In some areas however, like among the Igbo, women tried to hold on to their historic role as cultivators and market sellers.
Women participate in anti-colonial actions
Igbo women's knowledge of farming and business helped them resist unfair British laws. In 1929, the British began unfairly taxing women in southeastern Nigeria. These women protested at warrant chief's offices and attacked colonial buildings to demand an end to unfair taxes and the warrant chief system. The women used protest methods that were historically used by Igbo women to express their disapproval of men who abused their power. The women danced, sang songs about their poor treatment, and destroyed courthouses. This protest was known as the Aba Women's Rebellion and lasted two months. The protest ended on December 17th, 1929. During the protest, the British military fired into crowds of protestors and killed 55 women.
...
European colonizers forced women out of jobs, took property from them, and removed them from government roles. Many things made it difficult for women to be a part of fighting colonialism. They were forced to be dependent on men, had less rights than men, could not own land and could not even earn money.

Law enforcement in ancient China was carried out by "prefects" for thousands of years since it developed in both the Chu and Jin kingdoms of the Spring and Autumn period. In Jin, dozens of prefects were spread across the state, each having limited authority and employment period. They were appointed by local magistrates, who reported to higher authorities such as governors, who in turn were appointed by the emperor, and they oversaw the civil administration of their "prefecture", or jurisdiction. Under each prefect were "subprefects" who helped collectively with law enforcement in the area. Some prefects were responsible for handling investigations, much like modern police detectives. Prefects could also be women.[13]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_criminal_justice#Ancient_China
An example of a female prefect would be Lady Qu[4] of Wuding (serving 1531 – c. 1557).
Comparing with Western countries:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_law_enforcement
The first female police officers in Australia were appointed in New South Wales in July 1915
Women have played an important role in enforcement since the early 1990s in Austria.
On September 16, 1974, thirty-two women are sworn in with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as their first female officers.
In Germany, women were employed in the police force from 1903
in 1923, Meta Kehrer became the first woman Inspector of the Dutch police force
the New Zealand Police did not admit women as police officers until 1941.
Poland ... Finally, on February 26, 1925, the Commander-in-Chief of the State Police signed a decree allowing women to work in the State Police.
In 1908, the first three women, Agda Hallin, Maria Andersson and Erica Ström, were employed in the Swedish Police Authority in Stockholm
United Kingdom ... The first woman to be appointed a police officer with full powers of arrest was Edith Smith (1876–1923), who was sworn in to Grantham Borough Police in August 1915.
The first policewomen in the United States included Marie Owens, who joined the Chicago Police department in 1891; Lola Baldwin, who was sworn in by the city of Portland in 1908; Fanny Bixby, also sworn into office in 1908 by the city of Long Beach, California; and Alice Stebbins Wells, who was initiated into the Los Angeles Police Department in 1910.[24]

Escrava Anastacia ("Anastacia the female slave") is a Brazilian folk saint said to have died from wearing a punitive iron muzzle.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escrava_Anastacia
She is often purported to have possessed tremendous healing powers and to have performed other miracles. Eventually, she is punished by her owners by being forced to wear a muzzle-like facemask, which prevents her from speaking, and a heavy iron collar. The reasons given for this punishment vary: some stories report her aiding in the escape of other slaves, others claim she resisted **** by her master, and yet another places the blame on a mistress jealous of Anastacia's beauty. After a prolonged period of suffering, all the while performing more miracles of healing and peace, Anastacia dies of tetanus from the collar.
But we are supposed to believe Western civilization is less sexist than non-Western civilizations.....

All the following are exclusively Western behaviours:
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/women-sharing-gentlemanly-behaviors-actually-184602282.html
Women Are Revealing The "White Knight" Behaviors Men Do That Are Actually Pretty Disrespectful
...
some "good deeds" don't come off as "kind" or "polite" at all. Instead, they can feel condescending, creepy, infantilizing, or worse: all of the above.
...
1."Offering to help you and not backing off, regardless of what you say. My cousin is very beautiful and often has men offering help left and right in an effort to get in her good graces — except they keep offering when she says no. And they keep offering. And they keep pushing. It's basically a thinly veiled 'let me get close to you,' and they won't take no for an answer. It's extremely disrespectful."
—u/peachandpeony
2."When people try to put words in my mouth, like, 'what I think she meant was...' No, no, no. I said what I said, all questions can be directed to me."
—u/CatrionaShadowleaf
3."When someone interrupts or stops telling a story to apologize for the profanities being used in front of me."
—u/smellycatsmelllycat
"Or you're in a group conversation with some men and one of them swears, so another man cuts him off and scolds him because I'm there. What is this, the 1850s? I promise I won't faint."
—u/crazynekosama
4."People insisting on carrying things for me. I worked in a warehouse for years and can’t count how many times I got told that the lifting should be left for the ‘men.’ I was usually the only employee on shift, and if I left all the lifting for the men, then I just wouldn’t be employed."
—u/Ill_Task_257
5."Any time a man is speaking for or 'defending' a woman and he gets extremely possessive, and you can tell that he’s more offended because she’s HIS, and it’s therefore disrespectful to HIM, than he is concerned about her feelings. 'That’s MY WIFE,' 'don’t talk about MY wife that way...'"
—u/lizard_ladder
6."When they try to mansplain to me about how to do my job."
—u/Bebe_Bleau
7."Speaking on my behalf because I didn't answer right away. Like, I don't care if you've known me my whole life, you don't, under any circumstances, speak for me. I have a voice."
—u/SlimJimLahey
8."Insisting on walking me to my car. No one has insisted on this with good intentions, so stop pretending you are protecting me."
—u/weewee52
9."Kissing my hand when first meeting me. Please, no."
—u/Holybull79
10."Babying pregnant women because they 'need protection,' including from themselves. When I was pregnant, one of my coworkers told on me to my husband (we work at the same company) because he thought the box I was carrying was too heavy for a pregnant woman to be carrying."
—u/fireflygalaxies
11."Men I don't know calling me 'honey,' 'sweetheart,' or any variation of that. It happens less now that I'm older, thank god."
—u/emshlaf
12."Walking you home after a first date, especially when you don't know them well. Like, okay, maybe there's good intent, but statistically, the guy I just started dating is more of a risk than the possibility of some random stranger-danger attack on a busy, well-lit city street. Until I know a guy better, I emphatically don't want to give them my address. I once told a guy all that out of sheer exasperation when he wouldn't accept my 'no, thank you'. He was...not happy."
—u/sharksnack3264
13."Taking tools away from me while I'm using them because they are 'thinking of my safety.' Like, no, it's not safe to try and take my axe out of my hands mid-swing."
—u/notanotherkrazychik
14."Those cringe-y 'POV' TikToks where a guy acts out an imaginary scenario where he saves a girl from being harassed/assaulted. They just love imagining that a woman is being hurt, just so they can be a hero. And there's always epic, movie-type music playing in the background."
—u/No_Natural2495
15."If I'm holding a door already for everyone to get in, and a man has to make it awkward by trying to be gentlemanly and hold the door for me. You're causing a traffic jam, then making it awkward holding the door also, so now I gotta do a weird shimmy under your arm, or go around you somehow to go inside. I hate it."
—u/TenaciousToffee
16.And finally, "Men I don’t know being 'gentlemanly' and letting me walk up the stairs in front of them when I’m wearing a short skirt or shorts. This usually happens with repairmen in my house."

Our enemies writing a pro-patriarchy article that inadvertently reveals both Western civilization's greater patriarchy than non-Western civilizations, and Western civilization's (inaccurate) bigoted presumption that non-Western civilizations are just as patriarchal:
https://www.eurocanadians.ca/2022/08/the-tragedy-of-modern-love.html
There is no female equivalent to the heroic stories of men killing dragons to save female virgins. Female fragility inspires male sacrifice while male fragility inspires female abandonment. The list goes on and on and on. It’s not just that women don’t prove love through sacrifice (in relation to adult men), it’s that they won’t even pretend to express such passions in their art, films, and literature as a matter of superficial virtue signaling.
Our enemies obviously do not watch Sailor Moon. But rather than use this or numerous other easy Counterculture-era counterexamples, I feel it would be even more convincing to prove our enemies wrong using an ancient counterexample:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legend_of_the_White_Snake
the white and green snakes transform themselves into two young women called Bai Suzhen (白素貞) and Xiaoqing (小青), respectively. They meet Xu Xian at the Broken Bridge in Hangzhou. Xu Xian lends them his umbrella because it is raining. Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen gradually fall in love and are eventually married. They move to Zhenjiang, where they open a medicine shop.
In the meantime, the terrapin spirit has accumulated enough powers to take on human form, so he transforms into a Buddhist monk called Fahai (法海). Still angry with Bai Suzhen, Fahai plots to break up her relationship with Xu Xian. He approaches Xu Xian and tells him that during the Duanwu Festival his wife should drink realgar wine, an alcoholic drink commonly consumed during that festival. Bai Suzhen unsuspectingly drinks the wine and reveals her true form as a large white snake. Xu Xian dies of shock after seeing that his wife is not human. Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing travel to Mount Emei, where they brave danger to steal a magical herb that restores Xu Xian to life.
After coming back to life, Xu Xian still maintains his love for Bai Suzhen despite knowing her true nature. Fahai tries to separate them again by capturing Xu Xian and imprisoning him at the Jinshan Temple. Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing fight with Fahai to rescue Xu Xian.
In other words, of course stories of women rescuing men exist in literature, just not in traditional Western literature.
Better still, Legend of the White Snake even covers the inferiority of natalism:
However, her powers are limited because she is already pregnant with Xu Xian's child, so she fails to save her husband.
The true hero of the story is the one who did not reproduce:
At the same time, Xiaoqing, who had spent the intervening years refining her powers, goes to the Jinshan Temple to confront Fahai and defeats him.
But I digress.
You can read the whole enemy article if you want to laugh at our enemies' inferiority. Their main point is:
This is why women need to be taught to submit to male authority.
This is why Western civilization needs to be killed.

Although not sexism, people in general thinking their helping a person by doing something that person has never asked them to do, or never having even asked for help in the first place, is extremely disrespectful also! This scenario seems to be particularly western behavior as well. As pointed out on the main site, if someone has not asked for help and someone else attempts to help them, the person believing that they are helping are in fact telling the other person that they are not confident in their ability to perform the task they are attempting.
Don't try and help people who haven't explicitly asked for help, it's extremely disrespectful!

Gender segregation is sports is Western, because it is Westerners who are most obsessed with sexual dimorphism:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/christian-school-won-t-play-120000084.html
The Lions football team of Valley Christian Academy — a small private school in the Central Coast city of Santa Maria — is once again refusing to play against girls.
That’s in spite of the fact that it’s becoming more common for girls to plays football, especially in California.
And it’s in spite of the fact that VCA already is facing one lawsuit because it refused to play against Cuyama High’s football team last year. That squad included a female wide receiver whose mother filed the suit.
Now VCA, which is affiliated with First Baptist Church, could be on the receiving end of even more backlash for forfeiting an upcoming game against Coast Union High, a public high school in Cambria where two girls are on the football team.
The reason for the boycott?
The school administration says playing football with girls conflicts with the “guiding principles of the Bible regarding the care of a woman,” according a legal document filed in the Cuyama case.
...
“We are not raising our daughters to be ‘fighters’ the same way we are with our sons,” Nancy Wilson wrote in an article published on the Christian website Reformed Perspective. “The goal we have in mind in raising sons is to inculcate masculinity. And we want our daughters to embrace a godly femininity, not a worldly feminism.”
But as far as the U.S. government is concerned, girls have the right to play whatever sport they choose, no matter what the Bible says.
...
Ironically, Valley Christian scrimmaged against Cuyama High last year, which apparently went smoothly until the female player took off her helmet at the end of the game.
“Upon seeing her gender, the observers, coaches and administrators of Valley Christian glared at (the player) while shaking their heads in disbelief,” according to a court filing.
A few days later, Cuyama High’s superintendent received a letter stating that the female player — whose identity has not been disclosed — would no longer be welcome to play football at the Valley Christian campus.
The player was left “humiliated, embarrassed and shocked by the public display of unwelcomed reactions,” according to the case file.
Of course she was. One minute, she’s treated as an equal on the playing field. The next, she’s treated like a pariah who should trade her helmet and pads for a spoon and apron?
Contrast with:
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/228587-history-of-football-cuju
it seems the first games in which the main technique involved kicking a ball originated in China. The game of Cuju was also played in Korea, Japan and Vietnam and dated back to the fourth century BC.
...
Female clubs also developed where women could play up against each other and men. Often the women were more skillful at the game than the men and it is said that one time a 17-year-old girl beat a full team of soldiers on her own.
Back to first link; the solution is Cancel Culture:
Fortunately, there’s a simple solution that can be reached outside of the courtroom.
Either the Valley Christian Academy Lions agree to play — whether or not girls are on the opposing team — or they withdraw from the league.
If they won’t withdraw, CIF can show them the door.
(Additionally, note that if gender segregation in sports had not been instituted in the first place, the present-day controversy over which team transgender athletes should be playing in wouldn't even exist because there wouldn't be separate teams to begin with!)

Purely for entertainment:

This happened only because gendered toilets exist in the first place. And yes, gendered toilets are Western:
https://time.com/4337761/history-sex-segregated-bathrooms/
Why Do We Have Men's and Women's Bathrooms Anyway?
Though the first sex-segregated toilets were established in Paris in the 1700s, regulations requiring that American men and women use separate restrooms got their start in the late 1800s. The first regulation requiring separate toilet facilities for men and women was passed in 1887, when Massachusetts required the establishment of separate privies in businesses. “Wherever male and female persons are employed in the same factory or workshop, a significant number of separate and distinct water-closets, earth-closets, or privies shall be provided for the use of each sex and should be plainly designated,” the law reads. In the next line, mixed use of such facilities is prohibited. Over the course of the next three decades, nearly every state passed its own version of that law.

Again, Western civilization is the most patriarchist civilization. The above phenomenon and the uniquely Western legal prohibition of polygamy are in fact two manifestations of the same ultra-patriarchist attitude: both are based on the notion that every man (no matter how awful a person he is) is entitled to keep a woman. (Not coincidentally, it was Western men who came up with the notion of an "incel" based on the same sense of entitlement being unmet.) This attitude is thoroughly alien to non-Western civilizations, whose men have no such equivalent patriarchist rapport with other men in evenly distributing women.

Traditional democracy (only men allowed to vote, as Aristotle recommended, and as practiced until well into the 20th century:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_suffrage#20th_century
The Representation of the People Act 1918 saw British women over 30 gain the vote. Dutch women won the vote in 1919, and American women on August 26, 1920, with the passage of the 19th Amendment (the Voting Rights Act of 1965 secured voting rights for racial minorities). Irish women won the same voting rights as men in the Irish Free State constitution, 1922. In 1928, British women won suffrage on the same terms as men, that is, for ages 21 and older.
...
By the time French women were granted the suffrage in July 1944 by Charles de Gaulle's government in exile, by a vote of 51 for, 16 against,[32] France had been for about a decade the only Western country that did not at least allow women's suffrage at municipal elections.[33]
) compared to autocracy is itself evidence that Western civilization is more patriarchist than non-Western civilizations. Under traditional democracy, all men participate in state decisionmaking while no women do. Whereas under autocracy, the number of men and the number of women who do not participate in state decisionmaking are almost equal (the monarch being the sole exception). It is clear which system was designed with greater male bias in mind.

In Puerto Rico, Women Won the Vote in a Bittersweet Game of Colonial Politics
Puertorriqueñas’ fight for suffrage shaped by class, colonialism and racism—but even today, island residents cannot vote for president.
[...]When Pagán heard back months later, it confirmed the grim reality she was prepared to hear. As colonial subjects, Puertorriqueñas would not be afforded the same freedoms as their white, American sisters on the mainland. Despite the 19th Amendment’s promises and despite their American citizenship, Pagán and the roughly 300,000 other Puerto Rican women eligible to vote would have to wait another 16 years to cast ballots.
In their journey to suffrage, Puertorriqueñas defiantly used the island’s colonial politics to their advantage to pressure the island’s governing elite to deliver the vote. Yet the story remains incomplete. Their struggle didn’t end when Puerto Rican women were extended the franchise for local elections; on a federal level, Puerto Ricans of all genders remain as disenfranchised as they were 100 years ago. Island residents have the rare displeasure of being citizens who cannot vote for president, and the delegates they elect to Congress also cannot vote on U.S. laws.
In 1898, the U.S. claimed the island as a bounty of its victory in its war with Spain and took over colonial control. After a few short years of military rule, the U.S. established a civil government subject to American supervision, drastically transforming Puerto Rican society. Thousands lost their family-owned farms to U.S. companies eager to exploit the island’s natural resources through the sugar, tobacco and coffee industries. More women, facing the prospect of poverty, were forced to enter the workforce...

Excellent commentary by Carollo again:

https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-right/plebian-hubris/
Our enemies confirm my claim that Western civilization is more patriarchist than non-Western civilizations:
https://www.eurocanadians.ca/2023/02/are-all-women-female-supremacists.html
women are more sexually selective than men. That’s partially why twice as many of your reproductively successful ancestors were female, not male. That’s also why men are sexually rejected at a rate ten times greater than vice versa while women judge 80% of men as below average.
...
Throw in the fact that women are infinitely more likely to complain about male sexual advances (not to mention male attention more generally) and it becomes all but impossible to deny that, as an evolutionary class, women seem to be at least somewhat gender-cidal towards men.
...
The male hypogamy/female hypergamy dynamic appears to be all but entirely irreversible. This begs the question: Are virtually all women female supremacists in this regard? Do virtually all women view men as a potentially disposable genetic crop while viewing women as the selective face of Mother Nature? And if so, is this not a vaguely femi-nazi-esque world view?
Men are free to be as sexually selective towards women as women are sexually selective towards men, or even more so if they want. Every non-Western civilization understands that if men are less selective than women in reality, it is men's fault for lacking standards. Western civilization, in contrast, thinks it is women's fault for having standards.

Duchesne again concedes that there is no such thing as "cultural Marxism":
https://twitter.com/dr_duchesne/status/1661782004143206400
The "authoritarian family" critique did not come from cultural Marxism but out of liberalism: J.S.Mill wrote in The Subjection of Women that traditional (Victorian) family was “a school of despotism” where children were accustomed to accept authoritarian values.
They were! But no, this is not despotism. It would be more accurate to say that the traditional Victorian family was a school of patriarchy. As we keep pointing out, authentic despotism (a.k.a. autocracy) weakens patriarchy whereas it is traditional democracy which strengthens it:
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/colonial-era/colonialism-and-sexism/msg17477/#msg17477
Under traditional democracy, all men participate in state decisionmaking while no women do. Whereas under autocracy, the number of men and the number of women who do not participate in state decisionmaking are almost equal (the monarch being the sole exception). It is clear which system was designed with greater male bias in mind.
which is why non-Western civilizations were less patriarchist than Western civilization.

https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/daughter-mixed-rugby-team-taught-060000301.html
Anyone who thinks that “toxic masculinity” is woke nonsense has obviously never watched under-nines mixed rugby.
I of course agree that toxic masculinity is real. It is also worse in high-sexual-dimorphism men. Rugby selects for high-sexual-dimorphism men, and hence for the most extreme sexism. Societies which admire rugby thus promote sexism. Which civilization invented rugby (and spread it around the world during the colonial era)? It is no coincidence that the civilization which invented rugby is the one whose gene pool produces the highest sexual dimorphism:
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/human-evolution/re-sexual-dimorphism-preferences/msg460/#msg460
An interesting finding is that all European countries revealed 420
larger differences between male and female average faces than in all the other populations.
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/mythical-world/aryanism-vs-hyperboreanism/msg18981/#msg18981
Europeans, on the average, show much greater secondary differences between the sexes. And
among the subraces of the White race sexual dimorphism increases from south to north, with
Mediterraneans exhibiting the least dimorphism and Nordics the most.
In general, a large degree of sexual dimorphism in a race is an indication of
evolutionary adaptation to markedly different male and female social roles. When men and
women have similar lifestyles, there is relatively little need for them to differ physically,
except in their reproductive organs. But in the big-game hunting society of Upper Paleolithic
Europe, the men went out into the forests or the tundra to do the hunting and killing, and the
women stayed at home to bear and raise the children -- for a thousand generations.
Back to first link:
Last year, Penny decided she wanted to try rugby and joined a club I had once played for in my teens. So, well placed to help, I accompanied her to training and matches and was relieved to see her apply her trademark fearlessness in the mud with a group of 20 or so children, all but three of whom were boys.

They whispered insults to the girls out of the earshot of adults. Sometimes the boys refused to accept the coach’s decisions, as if the rules were an inconvenient brake on their individualism.
But what jarred most and filled me with that burning sense of fatherly injustice was the refusal of any of the boys to pass to a girl, despite the encouragement of the coaches. The girls – all excellent players – had to pass to each other; it was their best hope of getting involved. When the boys had the ball, they would rather run backwards or into touch than pass to a girl
...
I was watching young males repeat patterns of behaviour in which females will always be an “other”. (Penny has recently started playing cricket, too, and the boys’ behaviour is just the same.)
...
These boys are not the embodiment of evil; they are just children.
No, they are the embodiment of evil. They are certainly not children. They are future Westerners.

Consequences of serial monogamy: non-Aryan infidelity. According to traditionalists, women should just "accept" this behavior:

It’s better to mentally accept that your husband may cheat and you’re willing to work through it than mentally believe it is the worst thing ever.
Infidelity is one of the leading causes of divorce. These things can and should be worked through.

Useful research from our enemies:
https://incels.is/threads/women-gain-sexual-pleasure-from-the-pain-that-is-inflicted-upon-them.254271/
Estrogen is a natural painkiller that modulates opioid receptors to be more effective.
Estrogen is present in women at a level that is 10 to 15 times higher than the level present in men.
In 2011, researchers (Stenning et al) discovered that estrogen can modulate the density of opioid receptors.
Estrogen have also been found to induce mu-opioid receptor activation within the preoptic nucleus and posterodorsal medial amygdaloid nucleus.
High densities of estrogen receptors functionally related to endorphin receptors have been found within the hypothalamus, one of the primary sites of MOR. [mu-opioid receptors]
In addition, research on sex hormones indicates there is improved mu receptor binding in some brain regions in women after they receive estrogen, as measured by PET scans.
One of the conclusions forwarded from this research is that a decrease in estrogen would increase sensitivity to pain. Conversely, an increase in estrogen would promote analgesic effect by stimulating a bolus of pain-inhibiting transmitters.
The effects of estrogen modulation of pain receptors is further confirmed in a study by Dr. Kern Olson.
According to him:
Girls and boys react to pain in a similar fashion before puberty but differently after puberty; these differences, however, decrease as levels of sex hormones decrease as people age. (i.e., after menopause, when estrogen levels in women plummet)
...
Estrogen serves to increase the feelings of sexual arousal derived from pain.
So, let's think about this evolutionarily. What is the evolutionary advantage of the above effect? Answer: (inferior) women willing to accept violence initiated by men would be more likely to stay with those men long enough to reproduce with them many times, whereas (superior) women unwilling to accept such violence would soon flee/retaliate/suicide and thus reproduce less.
This reinforces what we know already: less feminine women (who produce less estrogen) are racially superior, but consequently less successful under natural selection ( https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-false-left/proof-yahweh's-world-is-evil-and-a-prison-for-the-truly-good!/ ), compared to more feminine women (who produce more estrogen).
But we can further deduce that the more violence typically initiated by men against women in a given society over many generations, the stronger the selective pressure will have been in favour of more feminine women (at least feminine enough to be willing to stay with the violence-initiating men) in that society's gene pool. In other words, the higher the average estrogen levels of the women of a given gene pool, the more patriarchist we can expect the traditional civilization corresponding to that gene pool to have been.
So all we need to look up is which gene pool produces women with higher average estrogen levels* and we will have a fairly strong indicator as to which corresponding civilization is more patriarchist.
(* As if it were not visually obvious which women are more feminine....)

We evaluated associations between estrogenic (E) activity, demographic factors and breast cancer risk factors in Non-Latina Black (NLB), Non-Latina White (NLW), and Latina women. We examined the association between E activity and Indigenous American (IA) ancestry in Latina women.

An inverse association was observed between E activity and IA ancestry among Latina women (50% lower in 0% vs. 100% European ancestry, p = 0.027) consistent with our previously reported association between IA ancestry and breast cancer risk.

Our enemies display their patriarchy:
https://vdare.com/posts/are-women-too-delicate-to-play-soccer-safely
The basic fact is that females are more delicate than males, so they tend to get hurt more playing sports.
...
should the rules of women’s soccer be changed to slow down the game, the way no checking into the boards is allowed in women’s ice hockey.
If the women involved in women's soccer want the rules changed, they will change the rules. Why are our enemies talking as if men should be the ones deciding whether the rules of women's soccer should be changed?
Similarly, all these crazy winter Olympic sports involving flying through the air have taken a nasty toll on women Olympian’s knees. The obvious response should be to slow down women’s courses and ban women from doing the most dangerous stunts.
The obvious response is to let the women themselves decide if they are satisfied with the current courses and stunts. If so, there is no problem! Why do our enemies talk as though women are men's collective property? (Answer: because that is how they still view women.)

Our enemies accurately explain how Western civilization, by being more patriarchist than other civilizations, ends up being more machinist:
https://incels.is/threads/the-****-rate-is-about-to-implode.411583/
Society as Sex Trade
Our civilization is held together by a pact: mid men get ****, everyone else gets core infrastructure.
Again, I emphasize that our enemies are writing about Western civilization only. No other historical civilization worked like this (thankfully!).
This pact harnesses the single greatest source of psychic energy known to man: men’s desire to secure the partnership, youthful attention, and children of attractive women. It comes at a cost — high status men have to give up access to **** they’d otherwise have, mid women have to settle for mid men early instead of sharing a high status man
Non-Western civilizations did not harness this psychic energy. This makes them ethically superior. Western civilziation harnessed this psychic energy. This makes it ethically inferior.
The problem is that the ethically most inferior civilization, by being ethically inferior in this precise way, was rewarded with the most machines and was thus able to colonize the ethically superior civilizations. The correct response is not to imitate Western civilization but to kill it.

https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-false-left/true-left-breakthrough-folkish-imperialism/
Continuing:
This pact has an intensive margin; the sweeter the deal you make for the mid men, the more civilization you can squeeze out of them.
I academically agree with our enemies that Western civilization makes the sweetest deal for mid men. (Traditional democracy (voting restricted to men only), also a uniquely Western idea, is another manifestation of this.) This is what we mean when we say Western civilization is the most patriarchist.
you’re going to need to build a social apparatus — religion, behavioral mores, unnatural standards — to shame women into it. And that shaming will inevitably make real, normal women unhappy. But in exchange you get more civilization.
Western civilization shames women in this way. Non-Western civilizations did not. We thank our enemies for admitting this.
Of course, different people have different tastes regarding the right amount of female shame to trade for plumbing and technological progress.
And for admitting that Westerners measure the level of civilization by machines rather than by ethics.
Much of the things we assumed were conjured up by the magic of modernity — reliable core infrastructure, cheap food/energy/shipping, functional business apparatus — were in fact gifts bestowed upon us by a hungry god.
...
You can stop sacrificing to him, sure, but don’t be surprised when his gifts stop coming.
Only Western civilization sacrificed to this god in the first place. Non-Western civilizations did not. The evidence is that modernity was introduced solely by Western civilization.
Men tip fertile strippers double what they tip infertile strippers.
https://www.unm.edu/~gfmiller/cycle_effects_on_tips.pdf
Do you think they’ll behave any differently when you ask them to pay for **** with their sweat? The male body intuitively knows which prizes are worth fighting for, and which ones warrant only a holding pattern at best. No shaming will change this, ever. You may nominally hold onto full mid male employment, but the output will be greatly reduced.
I want the output to be reduced. My worry is that it will not be reduced enough!

It turns out that "white" supremacism and patriarchism have the same root, namely machinism:
https://incels.is/threads/just-realized-foids-would-never-be-able-to-build-something-like-this.517019/
YOU **** FOIDS THIS IS MESSAGE FOR YOU. EVERYTHING YOU SEE AROUND YOU IS INVENTED AND BUILT BY MEN. ALL THE CARS, ALL THE BUILDINGS, ELECTRONICS, THE **** IPHONE YOU HOLDING IN YOUR HAND
Look around you and realise that little everything around you --- the houses, the roads, the technology --- everything was invented and built by men.
What was the last thing invented by a woman anyway?
Note how this type of rhetoric emphasizing male overrepresentation in machinism is almost identical to rhetoric emphasizing "white" overrepresentation in machinism as we have extensively documented here:
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-right/homo-hubris/
Is this then not more reason to expect Western civilization to be more sexist than non-Western civilizations? If men inventing more machines than women is a reason for looking down on women, it trivially follows that the civilization whose men invented more machines than women by the largest margin (and ultimately the gene pool that produces the largest heritable male-female machinism disparity) would obviously look down on women more than civilizations whose men invented more machines than women by smaller margins (and ultimately gene pools that produce smaller heritable male-female machinism disparity).
If we understand machinism as a form of masculinity (and hence the male-female machinism disparity itself as a form of sexual dimorphism) then it all fits into the general model that more masculine men are both more racist and more sexist than less masculine men (and that high-sexual-dimorphism societies are both more racist and more sexist than low-sexual-dimorphism societies).
In conjunction with:
https://trueleft.createaforum.com/colonial-era/colonialism-and-sexism/msg21211/#msg21211
Western civilization is a vicious cycle of machinism and patriarchy.

Our enemies explain the connection between patriarchy and diet:
https://incels.is/threads/none-of-my-60-years-old-female-family-members-married-their-husbands-out-of-love.525149/
I asked my grandma if she married out of love, she said she didn't, and that she only married my grandpa because it was better than being forced into ****.
Same thing with her sisters.
Same thing with my other grandma.
Same thing with my aunts.
Every 60+ female in my family married at <25 y.o. , and married because she had to.
There were no fatherless children, no female-led divorces or women's rights.
Children were raised properly, with meat-heavy and dairy-heavy low carb diets, forced to breathe through their noses, with a large community, with both parents present, and as a result they were healthy and beautiful.
-
Meat and dairy certainly seem to play a role in increasing robustness, aside from genetics. For example, I have noticed that the average "non-White" who grows up in a Western country, eating a Western diet, is much more robust than their counterpart who grows up in a non-Western country eating a non-Western diet.

Our enemies continue to make our case for us about the connection between patriarchy and machinism:
https://incels.is/threads/female-choice-and-civilization.526775/
Taking away female choice and allowing men to procreate without having to spend their time and effort trying to impress women was what enabled the creation of civilization. Thanks to ensured and monogamous marriage, men were then able to invest all their energy into technological advancement which resulted in the vast cultural and scientific progress that has defined us
Which one and only one civilization fits the above description? Hint:

Seeing a girl get treated like meat and mentally destroyed is so inspiring. This chick was a "**** star" then went awol. Then obviously needed some easy money, so came back to do this scene with the roughest site out there. They throat **** (to the point of vomiting repeatedly) then **** her (which she didn't enjoy at all, as her co-stars are old men with uncomfortably giant dicks) and she held up well. But when the 3 loads (and spit) land on her face at the end you can see she hates it more than she thought she would and her soul leaves her body, she shakes her head and her body starts shuddering as they leave her to stew in it. She seems most pissed that they spit on her hair, which I found funny-- they probably promised not to. And as she's a negro it's a fake weave that's probably been ruined. :feelskek:
Its extreme lifefuel for sadists like me. :feelsdevil::feelsdevil:

Once we started I didn't even make it for 2 minutes before I had to stop. I started on my knees with the male talent literally shoving their **** down my throat until I gagged an couldn't breath.
I had to break because I was ready to pass out. when we started again it was no easier. I was still on my knees an the guys were so aggressive that at one point I literally had to stand up and push with all of my strength to get off of him. there is no point in having a safe word when you can't talk. I was clawing at their legs and slapping their thighs and they still wouldn't let up. So I took another breather and now I had 5 minutes of footage under my belt. After my break one of the guys picked me up and threw me over his shoulder and shoved me on him again. Then they pulled me off by my hair and smacked me in the face so hard it gave me a bloody nose. they didn't even notice that I was bleeding until they threw me onto the couch and started throat **** me while my head hung off the couch. the guy jumped off and was like dude you have a bloody nose! That will look great on camera! I took another break and cleaned up my face and had some water. As I was sitting on the couch I noticed that I was having trouble seeing straight. One eye was looking one way and the other looked straight. So not cool. We started again with me leaning off the couch again and again I had to shove the guys off of me with all my might to be able to breath. I even threw myself on the floor to get away and they picked me back up, dropped me on the couch and kept going. finally I called for a break and took off for the dressing room. I was so done being abused. I was literally shaking and my brain was no longer in the just get through the
scene mode. It was very fight or flight and I could not go on anymore. After a quick call home and a cigarette, some people tried to comfort me and get me to finish the scene. I'm sorry but there was no amount anyone could pay me at this point to keep me going. After another minute to gather myself I walked back on set and said I was tapping out. They told me that they had about enough footage that they could sell it if they got the popshot so I sat on the floor and finished the scene. For all of that they paid me $200. I packed up my clothes and headed back to the city. I was so shook up I was crying on the way home too. I literally could not even swallow my soda. Those are the facts take them as you like. when I got back to NYC at 4am I was so exhausted I ate 4 Sun chips and fell asleep
They have doggy bowls they use to catch all the fluids and, in some scenes, they pour it on the girl's head at the end (visibly without her knowing it was coming). :feelskek:

Anti-Colonialism mean Anti-Sexism
ANA NZINGA
The King of Queens
Historical revisionists and people who jog in place at stoplights often dismiss the impact of white supremacy and slavery by smugly reminding others that Africans enslaved their fellow Africans. While this is a simplistic summary of how colonialism works, the “20. and odd” enslaved Africans who arrived on the White Lion in 1619 were probably from the Ndongo Kingdom in present-day Angola.1 Five years later, Ana Nzinga’s actions would disrupt the business of the original slave traders.
After the death of her father, King Kiluanji of Ndongo, Nzinga’s brother had her sterilized and ordered her son to be killed so she would not become queen. Nzinga fled to nearby Matamba, but when her brother realized he couldn’t defeat the Portuguese on his own, he begged Nzinga to negotiate a treaty.
She agreed, and when she arrived to meet the Portuguese governor, they used a common tactic to belittle her: offering her a floor mat while the European leaders looked down on her from their chairs. Unfazed, Nzinga ordered a member of her court to get on all fours and sat on his back, placing herself at their level to negotiate the treaty. Although the treaty didn’t end the trade of enslaved human beings altogether, it required the removal of Portuguese forts that facilitated the slave trade.
Of course, being the colonizers that they were, the Portuguese reneged on the agreement and continued to take “slaves and precious items” from the Ndongo. After her brother died, Nzinga had her brother’s son, the heir to the throne, killed. And when her rival, Hari, teamed up with the Portuguese enslavers and declared that a woman could never control the kingdom, Nzinga fled to Matamba. She slowly increased the size of her army, kidnapped their queen and the queen’s daughter, and eventually returned to Ndongo to take her throne. By 1648, Nzinga was the ruler of the Ndongo and the Matamba.
She called herself the king.2 Researchers say Nzinga defied gender norms by deciding to “become a man.” Not only did she dress in traditional male attire, but she also required her stable of husbands to dress as women. When the Portuguese declared war, she personally led her troops into battle and was by all accounts a fearless warrior and exceptional tactician. Using guerrilla warfare and implementing the war strategy of the Imbangala, Nzinga fought the Portuguese to a standstill for thirty years, all the while expanding her empire. In doing so, she also declared that any African enslaved by Europeans would be free in her kingdom.
When she defeated a neighboring army, she would integrate the conquered troops and force the leaders to teach her armies all their tactics, essentially creating an unstoppable force. After conquering a new land, Nzinga only had one rule for her subjects:
No slave trading.
Of course, this wasn’t just an act of benevolence. As Nzinga’s empire grew, she also depleted the Portuguese supply of human chattel, which crippled their slave economy while diminishing their army.
On November 24, 1657, the Portuguese gave up.3
They gave Nzinga the rights to all the land and agreed to a peace treaty. She spent the rest of her life resettling slaves, establishing trade, and reestablishing her kingdom. Nzinga lived until the age of eighty-one. After her death, Portugal eventually reinstated its claim. Eight years later, Ndongo became part of the Portuguese Empire, but the descendants of the “Mother of Angola” would resist colonialism forever.
