And I think that if people are serious about finding a life partner, we need to have the old courtship system come back, but with a smart upgrade.

If people want to play around and have fun, they can continue doing dating.

But most women especially are looking for a husband, not a boyfriend.

It has not been a system that we've used for all of human history, no.

Mostly what you did was get match made through your family, through your friends.

Women especially prefer you to come in with references.

And if you don't have references, their guard is incredibly high.

They feel unsafe.

The dating industry right now in the dating world is essentially sending a woman from, let's say, 10,000 years ago, right?

Just after the Neolithic revolution.

Let's say you take a woman back then, strip her of family, friends, everything, send her alone into a forest and say, hopefully the first man you find is kind and not gonna hurt you and is a great husband.

Just connect to him, hopefully it works out.

Her nervous system, yeah, her nervous system's screaming at her the entire time.

So she's terrified of that man.

She'll have a laundry list of very specific things she has to see up front before she'll ever trust him, right?

And no man is gonna meet those lists.

So she's gonna be afraid.

It's going to be an awful experience.

Guys out there, same thing.

You're wandering through the woods.
