Patriarchy vs Matriarchy, The Social Contract Shift

hoe_math breaks down how women rewrote the social contract in the 20th century… but the 21st century might belong to men’s response. From the rise and fall of civilizations to the hidden costs of role reversals, this dive exposes the psychological toll, political maneuvers, and potential backlash ahead. Expect raw talk on accountability, gender power plays, and what happens when women dominate the arena—and how the subconscious biases keeping them in check might finally snap.

0 So one of the best quotes I've heard—and I can't remember who said it—is that women rewrote the social contract in the 20th century, and in the 21st century, men are going to be the ones responding to it. 16 What do you think about that? I mean, it goes in cycles. I did a talk with What If Alt Hist about this a while back—he's into alternative history. 37 We discussed the cycle of dead civilizations rebuilding, hopefully learning from the past, and now here we are with competing ideologies—on one side, communism and the idea of “free stuff,” and on the other, feminism versus patriarchy. In the middle, there has to be balance. 51 When men are too much in charge, things get too rigid and mistakes happen. When women are too much in charge, things get too chaotic. 70 I think most people would rather have extreme masculine order than extreme feminine chaos, because the latter just leads to disaster—basically, back to the Stone Age. 83 There’s a lot of brainwashing going on, making people believe that all of history was just oppression of women, and that feminism suddenly solved everything, when in reality, things alternate a lot more than people think. 95 Feminists have rewritten history. I hear women say, “Back in the '50s and '60s, men got to work and women couldn’t.” But before the 1980s, half the economy was agricultural and manufacturing—men did hard, physical labor for decades, not just office jobs in suits. 134 Women have fallen in love with the idea of working, and a lot of them give their best years—their childbearing years—to jobs that don’t care about them, and by 35, they want out. 151 Even in high-powered careers, like law or as CEOs, women often leave after a few years, while men stay longer. Over 52% of medical students are women, but over half of them leave the field when they have kids or by age 45. I call it the great experiment—women want to try being men, but don’t want all the downsides. 186 I tweeted about how women want to be like men because they imagine men have these great, privileged lives—like getting up, having a robe handed to them, putting their feet up at work, smoking cigars. They think men have all the privileges and none of the responsibilities. 218 This ties into dating and society—women imagine themselves equal to the men they want to date, meaning the top men. They don’t want to be equal to the bottom 80% of men, who are miserable. 243 So, to answer your question, I think in the 21st century we’re likely to see a male backlash. What If Alt Hist has a video about this—the coming incel uprising. 260 The signs are all there: men are getting sick of things and just not participating anymore. 265 But is it really an uprising? Because that would mean action. I think a lot of feminists fear men hating women, but I think apathy is worse. 283 Greg Adams talked about this on a podcast: when his daughter was a teen, he didn’t say anything because she’d just do the opposite. She’d have to make her own mistakes and then come back for advice. That’s what’s going to happen with women in general—men will disengage, women will make mistakes, and eventually come back. 331 There’s even historical precedent—like in the Arab world, where women wanted to be lawyers and participate in everything, and then society got overrun and destroyed. Afterwards, the survivors said, “We can never do that again,” and imposed strict controls on women, which survive to this day. 368 We have modern conveniences now, but they could be used against us. It’s hard to predict what will happen. 380 Do you think there will be a tipping point where women admit the great experiment isn’t working—that working all these hours and relying on IVF isn’t it? Will there be a critical mass of millennial women who realize there’s no dream man, no kids, and no way to get back lost time? 414 I think about all the women I dated in my 20s who were playing games and wanted to have fun. What’s going to happen when they can no longer pretend they have time? 441 I think there will be a critical mass of women who can no longer lie to themselves. 448 But even then, will they take accountability? I doubt it. And I don’t think they’ll teach their daughters not to repeat their mistakes. 474 When women realize they’re never going to get the dream, they might act out—politically organize, withdraw from work, or collectivize in some way. With social media like TikTok, it could be something like Korea’s 4B movement. 504 When women get to that age where they can’t lie to themselves anymore, they’ll probably blame men and come up with some kind of retaliation that will be hard to tolerate. 521 Pearl thinks there will be a large increase in female crime, and I agree. As women get more power, the idea that women are morally superior will fade, because women will abuse power just like men, maybe more. 553 We’ll see more women politicians making bad decisions, more women committing fraud, and society will be hurt because we keep giving women the benefit of the doubt. 573 This is built into the human subconscious—we see women as innocent and want to protect them. 587 But with the way women have behaved recently—like the “believe all women” movement and all the accusations—maybe something will happen that finally makes people see women as capable of wrongdoing. 605 There might be some series of events that overcomes even our urge to see women as blameless.
