ED Noor: Warning! Warning!
Dangerous moral anti Marxist content ahead.
ED Noor: They came for all of us regardless of race. The destruction of families is not a racial issue; it is a Marxist issue. Once stability is gone, all the more simple to stoke racial issues, (((a liberal technique borrowed from antiquity))). (Ancient Rome, Greece, Venice, Egypt, France, Berlin....)

Sex
& Culture
In Sex &
Culture, J.D. Unwin famously studied eighty tribes and six civilizations
and found that every time cultures abandoned the customs of premarital chastity
and absolute monogamy, their civilizations declined within three generations.
The evidence compiled since the dawn of the sexual revolution also strongly
supports Unwin's conclusions. In fact, the social science backing the combined
failures of sexual liberationist ideology is so expansive that one could easily
make the argument that, as a means of improving society, the culture of sexual
liberation is even more disproven than communism.
When arguing against
the sexual revolution, it's important to understand the sexual liberationists
opposing Unwin's main argument know they are wrong which is why they will never
present substantial empirical evidence backing their position.
J.D. Unwin is more or
less the reigning heavyweight champion and they know it. This is why the sexual
liberationists tend to use false ego defenses such as insults, mockery, denial,
obfuscation, distraction, rationalization, intellectual dishonesty, and appeal
to motive argumentation, raw theory devoid of empirical substance, straw man
fallacies, and stonewalling as their primary means of debate.
Absolute
Monogamy versus Serial Monogamy
For those not familiar
with the terminology, absolute monogamy refers to a parent culture placing a
premium on both premarital chastity and lifelong wedding vows.
Serial monogamy, by
comparison, is a slippery slope to de facto polygyny and cultural decline.
Additionally, the hyper-normalization of serial monogamy in wealthy societies
is often a precursor to Marxist feminism.
Subcultures of sexual
debauchery always exist within any society but that goes without saying as we
all know even the most strict parent cultures cannot eradicate all
manifestations of subterfuge and perversion. So to those saying it's not an
"either/or situation", please, understand the difference between
parent culture, subculture, and counterculture. We are primarily addressing the
relationship between parent culture and civilizational flourishing. Nobody is
making the argument that either subculture or counterculture (even outright
criminality) can, or should, be entirely eradicated.
Was
Unwin Right about Absolute Monogamy?
If Unwin was right
(and he was indeed right), those who aren't practicing premarital chastity and
absolute monogamy are largely to blame for the fall of the West. The nuclear
family is the building block of civilization. Therefore, it logically follows
that anything which dismantles the social institutions proven to best
strengthen the nuclear family also dismantles civilization itself. Mal-educated
people, however, will have a hard time understanding such truths.
Just as the
correlation between vitamin C and scurvy remains unclear to those who don't
understand the underlying workings of the human body, the relationship between
sexual propriety, family values, and civilizational flourishing also remains
unknown to those who fail to comprehend the body politic's unconscious
mechanisms.
To put it crudely, we
are dealing with legions of useful idiots led by dangerously mal-educated
quacks. Such is the problem with living in a postmodern era; the blind lead the
blind and airy fairy theory devoid of empirical evidence all too often kills.
Inverting
the Debate
To put Unwin's
findings into perspective, let us imagine a parallel world in which Unwin came
to the exact opposite conclusions, observing a profound and recurrent empirical
link between sexual liberation from premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms
and long-term civilizational flourishing. Without question, the pro sexual
liberationists would hail Unwin's work as a timeless masterpiece.
Sex & Culture would dot the
bookshelves of all self proclaimed freewheeling liberal academics right
alongside the Kinsey Report. Unwin's masterpiece would be read in all women's
studies departments across the Western world as proof of the fact that
empirical social science had, once and for all, disproven the false and
outdated theories of puritanical fools everywhere.
In such a parallel
world, the sexual revolution would also provide us with the exact opposite set
of conclusions, all of which would emphatically back Unwin's inverted analysis.
Hence, we would have loads of data collected since the 1960's from dozens of
countries across the Western world, all showing that sexual liberation from
premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms was empirically proven to reduce
rates of divorce, STD's, unwanted pregnancies, abortion, fatherlessness,
poverty, imprisonment, alcoholism, addiction, homelessness, homicide, family
dissolution, suicide, delinquency, and poverty.

Naturally, all
educated people would rightfully mock anyone who still held on to the
civilization destroying falsehoods associated with so-called "sexual
propriety" because most all of the empirical social science, past and
present, would be on their side of the argument. Our educated elite would
rightfully identify anyone promoting premarital chastity and absolute monogamy
as a maladaptive, antisocial, ignorant, throwback.
Does it not give the
pro sexual liberationists any pause that they wouldn't change their position at
all, not even remotely, even if the facts of reality pertaining to the debate
were diametrically inverted?
For those who still
remain unconvinced regarding the total failure of the sexual revolution, please
consider the following:
~ Do we have any
empirical evidence proving the sexual revolution improved the average well-being
of men, women, or children?
No. We have
significant evidence supporting the exact opposite conclusion.
~ Do we have any
empirical evidence proving the sexual revolution helped to strengthen the
nuclear family?
No. Sexual liberation
from premarital chastity/lifelong monogamy norms is heavily correlated with the
decline of the family, illegitimacy, fatherlessness, poverty, divorce, and
numerous other diseases of despair associated with the dissolution of marriage.
~ Do we have any
substantial empirical data proving the culture of sexual liberation from
premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms lowers rates of loneliness?
No. We have
significant evidence to the contrary. Both men and women are experiencing
higher rates of sexual and familial loneliness and alienation. Additionally,
children are experiencing higher rates of loneliness due to the dissolution of
the nuclear family.
~ Do we have any
empirical social science strongly opposing J.D. Unwin's well researched
conclusions regarding sexual liberation and the decline of civilizations?
Not really. The pro
sexual liberation ideology is akin to Marxism in that it mostly relies upon
theories which are not proven to work very well once implemented in the real
world.
~ But isn't sexual
liberation the new normal?
Shouldn't we just
accept that? In case people haven't noticed, the radical left never
demonstrates such grotesque manifestations of cultural self defeatism as they
are literally hell-bent on reordering global capitalism, the definitions of
male and female, and numerous other international social norms. It would be
wise to take a page from their playbook so as to stop rationalizing the further
destruction of our sacred culture.
~ Do we have
significant evidence suggesting a country can become both wealthy and sexually
liberated and not become toxically feminist?
Female sexual
liberation from premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms in addition to an
abundance of wealth naturally leads to a culture of toxic female narcissism
most commonly typified by intersectional Marxist feminism. Sexual liberation
also generally results in increased rates of womanizing and involuntary
celibacy/wifelessness among men, both of which are also bad for society.
~ But men who want to
culturally enforce premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms just want to
oppress women, right?
No. Women and
children are increasingly unhappy since the dawn of the sexual revolution. The Marxist
feminist lie that men who promote premarital chastity/lifelong monogamy norms
just want to harm women is false. The belief that sexual liberation from
patriarchal social norms is somehow "pro female" is generally rooted
in superstition and completely unsubstantiated.
~ Do we have any
significant evidence that a wealthy country can become sexually liberated and
not radically increase its rate of abortion?
Not really. Perhaps
Poland, but even Poland has a home grown feminist movement, rising demands for
abortion, and a sub replacement fertility rate. Give Poland another few decades
and it will likely go the same way as Ireland on the abortion issue. Although
many poorer countries (in South America, for example), are both sexually
liberated and generally pro life, there seems to be a subterranean correlation
between first world wealth, sexual liberation, abortion, and cultural decline.
Well over 80% of abortions occur outside of marriage in the US.
~ For those who blame
welfare, not sexual liberation, for the decline of the family, do such people
understand that few if any of the societies Unwin studied had significant
welfare programs?
Of course. But the
pro sexual liberationists are immune to facts, reason, and evidence. There's no
amount of data that could possibly penetrate their ideologically possessed
skulls. They are like communists in that no matter how many times their ideas
fail, they simply can't let go of their civilization destroying delusions.
~ But what about no
fault divorce? Isn't that good for
society?
No. We have
substantial evidence that the legalization of no fault divorce caused more harm
than good.
~ What about the
Nordic countries? Aren't they sexually
liberated from premarital chastity/lifelong monogamy norms?
Although the Nordic
countries are often hailed as the happiest places on Earth, the truth is they
have fairly significant rates of depression and sub replacement fertility. Furthermore,
it's doubtful such countries have enough cultural moxie to stand up to the
looming threat of Islamic expansionism. It seems many Nordic women practically
beg to be invaded and overthrown by more aggressively patriarchal cultures.
~ Aren't people who
promote premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms idealizing 1950's era
American Protestantism?
People often hurl
this inane accusation (a total red herring) at traditionalists who oppose the
sexual revolution. The reason people so often resort to such absurdities is
because they have no empirical data opposing Unwin's argument so they have to
rely upon distracting and irrelevant accusations such as "You're just
idealizing the 1950's!”
~ Perhaps it's not so
much the decline of premarital chastity/lifelong monogamy norms, but rather,
the loss of religion that is destroying the West?
This analysis is
somewhat wrongheaded. Yes, religion is historically proven to be one of the
most effective means of intergenerationally transmitting sexual and familial
values. No, that doesn't alter the main topic of debate regarding which sexual
and familial values are empirically proven to best serve society.
ED Noor: Indian culture, in all its diverse manifestations, holds true to its family values. This is one reason this nation has survived intact for millennia. So far India has avoided the problems of the West through strict enforcement (for better or worse ) of socially acceptable morality.
~ Perhaps it's not
sexual liberation from premarital chastity and absolute monogamy that is the
problem, but rather, leftism that is the problem?
This
headache-inducing monkey-wrench of a question put forth by select libertarians
is a prime example of how people make us few anti sexual liberationists do all
the intellectual heavy lifting while the other side of the debate continually
pelts us with red herrings. Most all of the eighty tribes and six civilizations
Unwin studied demonstrated no significant manifestations of "leftist
ideology".
~ But weren't men
unhappily enslaved to women before the sexual revolution?
We often hear this
claim put forth by select portions of MRA's and antifeminists. This is
basically the parallel to the Kate Millett argument that marriage is a terrible
institution designed to enslave women.
Indeed, men, women,
and children are,
in a sense, bonded to
one another;
the ties that bind,
as the saying goes.
It's called the human
condition.
If men want to prove
that they love, value, and respect the other men of their own civilization, the
best way to do that is by providing each and every son with a two parent
married household while enforcing cultural norms that are empirically proven to
ensure such outcomes. The best known way to achieve these goals is to
culturally enforce the customs of premarital chastity and lifelong monogamy.
~ But weren't women
unhappily enslaved to men before the sexual revolution?
No. Women were
happier on average than they are now. Sexual liberation can't be that great if
it makes women increasingly miserable and children worse off all while
contributing to fatherlessness and the general decline of society.
~ Is there a
significant correlation between sexual liberation and open border policies
associated with cultural self replacement?
Yes. Cultures that
practice premarital chastity are not particularly keen on cultural self-replacement
and mass immigration. You won't see Saudi Arabia sporting a sub replacement
fertility rate and radically aggressive open border policies any time soon.
There is in fact a psychic correlation between premarital chastity and cultural
vitality.
~ For those who ask,
"What about the fact that the Middle Easterners allow for polygyny? Doesn't that disprove Unwin's theory of absolute monogamy?"
Strict premarital
chastity in combination with polygyny is designed to create a well of repressed
male sexual hostilities which are then redirected towards the males of
neighboring tribes. Although a force to be reckoned with, this polygynous
approach to human pair bonding is not empirically proven to be evolutionarily
superior to absolute monogamy.
~ Do we have any
substantial evidence that people are even having more or better sex on average
due to the sexual revolution?
No. In fact, the
damage caused to gender relations is so pervasive that we have significant
evidence people, on average, are having less sex. Additionally, jealousies
related to the infamous 80/20 rule and the increasing sexual and familial
devaluations of the average male are serious cultural concerns as well.
~ So given that
virtually all of the social science supports the fact that Unwin's main
argument was likely right, while all of the data suggests the sexual revolution
has been a near total failure, why do so many people still promote the culture
of sexual liberation?
Some chalk it up to
ignorance, but I think it's more that many people simply don't want children to
have loving fathers or men to have loving wives. We evolved from war mongering
polygynous primates; hence, this is precisely the type of behavior we would
naturally expect when humans are allowed to act upon basic instincts divorced
from the purifying influence of high culture.
Sexual
Liberation Is a Precursor to Marxist Feminism
Marxist feminist,
Kate Millett, high priestess of the second wave feminist movement and founding
mother of modern day "anti-patriarchy theory", sought to destroy the
cultural ideals of premarital chastity, absolute monogamy, and sanctity of the
unborn, specifically so as to dismantle the underpinnings of Western
civilization.
Those who enact such
degeneracies are essentially working hand in hand with the Marxist feminists,
effectively carrying water for Kate Millett's ghost.
While J.D. Unwin
warned us not to diverge from premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms for
fear that we would destroy ourselves, Kate Millett urged us to diverge from
premarital chastity/absolute monogamy norms specifically so as to destroy
ourselves. In short, when both your allies and your enemies tell you that you
are destroying your culture, the writing's on the wall: You're destroying your
culture.
The Marxist
euphemism
for
cultural destruction, however,
is
change.
For those who doubt
the correlations between sexual liberation and toxic female narcissism (aka
modern feminism), be forewarned:
When a wealthy first
world society removes even the possibility for female shame in the realm of
sexual immorality, you get toxic femininity.
The mores of
premarital chastity, absolute monogamy, and the sanctity of the unborn create
the potential for female guilt. That potential for guilt acts as a dam against
the ever pervasive flood of female narcissism in the same manner that laws
against rape, murder, and theft help to keep men in check as well.
Free
Market Economics & Sex
Another argument we
occasionally hear put forth in favor of sexual liberation goes something like
this:
In a truly capitalist
society rooted in free market economics, freedom of choice and personal
autonomy are all that matters. Therefore, any law or custom prohibiting total
freedom in the realm of sexuality is fundamentally wrong. Please allow me to
explain why this theory is painfully illogical.
While allowing some people to achieve extreme inequities in wealth is indeed
proven to help society by incentivizing and empowering the most productive
geniuses to continue making the best possible products while enabling them to
offer vast employment opportunities for the rest of us, the same is clearly not
true of sexuality.
There is no empirical
data even remotely suggesting that either widespread promiscuity or
asymmetrical pair bonding is evolutionarily superior (at least not since
ancient times). Last we checked, neither promiscuity nor asymmetrical pair
bonding are proven to produce legions of "alpha families" who then
give birth to "alpha children" (quite the opposite).
WASP
Culture
Protestant ethics
rooted in premarital chastity and lifelong monogamy provides a woman for every
man and a father for every child.
This helps to ensure family stability, and
when wedded to a capitalist free market system (modified by economic
nationalism), such family values rooted in love, loyalty, sacrifice, service,
and equality work in tandem with the modern day capitalist spirit of risk,
innovation, fair play, and competition. It is this blend of sexual propriety
and free market economics that helped to make the West truly great.
Individualism
versus Familism
When societies place
the individual above the family, they perish. As sacred as the individual may
be, the individual must remain subordinate to the institution of the nuclear
family;
God, country, family,
individual
(in that order).
So-called
"women's liberation" from the sacred institutions of wifehood and
motherhood, for example, effectively placed the female individual above the
family unit. There's a reason why many Christians believe this inversion of
family and individual (as exemplified by women's liberation) is satanic; it's
empirically proven to be extremely destructive to society. Once the culture of
the all consuming self replaces the culture of familism, your civilization has
entered into a state of decline.
The virtues of
premarital chastity and absolute monogamy help to prevent the rise of toxic
individualism from usurping familism by locking a given civilization into a set
of sophisticated sexual and familial customs, the like of which act as bulwarks
against toxic manifestations of selfishness and narcissism.
Once your women are
going about worrying about their own particular sense of status and honor in
relation to society, they won't have much time to plot the overthrow of
"the patriarchy" because they will be all too preoccupied with the
daily task of fulfilling their sacred familial responsibilities to God,
country, and family.
Additionally, the
ideals of premarital chastity and lifelong monogamy are empirically proven to
help improve men's character as well. And for those who say it's not an
"either/or" relationship regarding individualism and familism, please
understand, it's a hierarchy. It's not about erasing one or the other, but
rather, ranking them in their proper order of subordination: God, country,
family, individual.
More on
Unbridled Femininity
Power without the
duel expectation of sacrifice and responsibility leads to the dark triad
(narcissism, psychopathy, Machiavellianism). A society either worships a set of
clearly defined virtues, the like of which primarily revolve around family
values and gendered responsibilities, or it otherwise worships the will to
power devoid of moral rectitude. If you allow either gender to exercise their
respective powers without the guiding forces of both expectation (what must be
done for others) and limitation (what mustn't be done to others), your culture
will decline.
It is naive
to think that only
men's power
is dangerous when
unbridled.
Unbridled female
power is just as destructive to civilization as unbridled male power, something
the West has clearly forgotten.
While unbridled male
power
attacks civilization
like a violent and
brutally unjust war,
unbridled female
power
attacks civilization
like a seductive and
pernicious disease.
MRA's
& Antifeminists
We occasionally hear
select portions of MRA's and antifeminists make the argument that we haven't
made our way through the sexual revolution just quite yet and that once we
"sexually liberate men as well as women", we will finally reach some
new state of evolutionary bliss; a fully sexually liberated light at the end of
a long dark tunnel. This argument is, unfortunately, a pipe dream.
The sexual liberation
of men from culturally prescribed duties concerning premarital chastity,
absolute monogamy, marriage, and responsibility to women and children, will
result in the precise same circumstances we currently see playing out in inner
city Chicago. Unwin already disproved the "sexual liberationist"
approach (eighty tribes, six civilizations). And yes, men as well as women were
"sexually liberated" in the societies Unwin studied.
ED Noor: Rome was destroyed from within by the same descent from values to degeneracy and its rapid fall. (((Same instigators...)))
Forgotten
Truths Remembered
Such timeless truths
concerning matters of sexual propriety and civilizational flourishing have been
all but forgotten. Degenerate fools largely rule over our modern day
civilization.
But that said,
let us
not despair,
for despair is a sin.
Virtue can still win
the day, if we try.
The tides of history
have often turned upon the good deeds of the few. Don't forget Unwin's
warnings: Premarital chastity and lifelong monogamy (absolute monogamy) are
both essential to high culture. The evidence supporting Unwin's argument is
vast, spanning many centuries. Ignorance is no longer an option. Most all of
the empirical social science is on J.D. Unwin's side of the argument.
The sexual
liberationists have lost the debate. Those who obscure such painfully obvious
truths sow the seeds of Western decline, poisoning their children, and further
dismantling their sacred culture.
Will you be a moral
degenerate?
Or will you tell the
truth about the failures of the sexual revolution?
Be a leader.
Be righteous.
Choose virtue.

ED Noor: If you want to learn
about the effects of Marxist feminism and the “sexual revolution” in the world
today, especially North America, I cannot recommend reading Henry Makow enough. When I began exploring the modern situation about 15 years ago I
stumbled across the site SAVE THE MALES by Henry Makow. My eyes were so opened
that I was furious for months at the deception which I had fallen for, which
had resulted in so much personal destruction in my life.
I was furious at the
Marxists and their lies; I was furious at myself for my naivete; but what did a
cloistered private-school Roman Catholic girl really know about much back in
the early 1960’s? It was my ignorance combined with natural rebelliousness that
led to my falling into self-destructive behaviours.
https://www.henrymakow.com/archives-subject.html
Might I also add, due to the
timing, I went through the entire sexual revolution and have watched Western
decline over 6 decades. Everything Unwin says is true from what I can see.
Our huge boomer generation, a
great threat to the powers that were (are), needed to be changed; they were afraid of the strength of our numbers: what greater
opportunity than to hit such a large population at once.
Feminism, free love,
Bachelorism ~ these were presented at the same time to us all. Women could be free with their favours due to birth control; Playboy came into play and eventually turned the source of feminine mystery
into an open urinal. The feminism sold then was NOT the feminism we see
now; there was definitely a need to correct some elements of Western culture
and its treatment of women, but as with all of these movements, things were
taken to extremes.
As one who did all the wrong
things when I look back, somehow I produced a child who is all
in on the nuclear family and settled in to a very healthy playbook! Success. She lived cool and beautiful but kept to herself until, more or less, she found the perfect mate with corresponding values. I might not share those values but THEY do and that is what makes them work so well as they build their family.
There is currently a movement on to erase all references to the golden years of the 1950's in America. They do not want people to know just how good it was when things were still on an upward roll.
Pass this on. The entire article
is so true. So very true.
