Early last year the survivalist Bear Grylls proposed the idea of a male-only survival show in which to watch men survive on a desert island together. As expected, the feminist outcry was swift - http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/women-take-on-bear-grylls-over-sexist-maleonly-desert-island-show-9273498.html.

Survival expert and bush craft instructor Lisa Fenton described the decision as “inherently sexist”, saying it was absurd to think that women weren’t as capable as men when it came to survival skills. “It’s fantastical and ridiculous. Women are every bit as cut out for this stuff as men,” she said. “It is sexism and it’s deeply rooted.”

“Looking at indigenous society, female roles are every bit as important,” she said. “It’s not just men who make the fires and go hunting, but now survival has become a bit of a cult of masculinity.”

This particular part stands out as the most important -

“It’s a pity that Channel 4 have decided to have a male-only show as if somehow suggesting that women couldn’t cut it – or, more probably, that women wouldn’t make good TV,” she said. “But there is such a male-oriented bias with adventure TV programmes already that it doesn’t surprise me to see this.”

Women feel the need to invade male spaces from gentlemans clubs to geek culture, and proclaim their 'right' to be included. Women so desperately want to be a part of great male-only circles and establishments, but when they scream and cry loud enough that they are begrudgingly let in, they ruin what made those things so great in the first place.

The reason for this drive to infiltrate male spaces has been whittled down to 2 main ideas here on TRP:

  1. This is a form of social control, because women need to silence these male only spaces because men talk, share ideas leading to the depedestalising of women and the denying them of male attention.

  2. That women have a biological drive to infiltrate male spaces, because it is paramount to her survival.

I'm arguing the latter, as men have single-handedly constructed and maintained civilization itself, and women have merely been passive participants in this process, reaping the benefits of male protection and resources.

Almost everything you will ever use in your daily life has been designed and built by men. Feminists would counter that because women have been so oppressed, they were never given the chance to invent or create - but when given complete control over their own lives and environment - women fail spectacularly.

The above article demonstrates essentially that women cannot build hierarchy, they cannot organize or allocate responsibility, and they cannot survive without male involvement. A women only island of the 'survivor' TV series had to have men from the male-only island brought in because the women couldn't build shelter, ration and gather food or do anything besides sunbathe on the beach.

Now for a beautiful piece of schadenfreude - it appears that Bear Grylls ran a 'women only' survival show as a counter to the claims that his male only show was sexist. The result was hilariously poetic.

They landed ashore with bright-eyed optimism from Beki the ­camerawoman: “We’ll not only survive but we’ll thrive.” Six days into The (Women’s) Island With Bear Grylls and how are the ­castaways faring? Well, severely dehydrated Fran ­collapsed and was stretchered off, base camp can’t relight the fire and are drinking rainwater off their shelter and the expedition party trying to get back to them “is lost in the thick of jungle and completely out of ­water”. You go, girls.

The sea which, on an island, stays on the left if you go in a big circle. No doubt they clung to Bear’s advice in their darkest hour: “The thing to remember is positivity, positivity, positivity.” Which prompted this from Jaime, on them failing to find camp and ­emerging at Coconut Beach a third time: “It’s only around the corner but we cannot f*ing navigate through that. I cannot walk, I’m just fd and we’re all fd.”

This is surprising, as 'Survival expert' and bush craft instructor Lisa Fenton did say that "Women are every bit as cut out for this stuff as men, it is sexism and it’s deeply rooted.” After all, she also said “It’s a pity that Channel 4 have decided to have a male-only show as if somehow suggesting that women couldn't cut it."

Women need to infiltrate male spaces, demonize male only institutions and complain and cry about sexism because it is their biological imperative to do so and guarantee their place in the tribe. If a woman were to be excluded from a male-only survivor island and forced to live on her own, she'd die. Female shit tests, female manipulation, female social machinations - their entire existence depends on their ability to manipulate men to serve as their protectors.

So next time you're mad at shit tests, pissed off that they're seemingly heartless and manipulative, frustrated that she tries to use sex as a bargaining tool, or stamping her feet and crying like a child maintaining that 'Women can do anything men can!" - simply chuckle to yourself and remember that evolution has given her this demeanor to survive. If you were both dumped on a deserted island together and she couldn't manipulate you into providing for her, she's completely and utterly fucked.
