TL/DR:An eye opener for me and a healthy sign for me that the system is not totally skewed so long as you are in a position to be able to ask for help.

I moved into 'the fire' about seven years ago, by shifting countries from Thailand to Sweden, and took a job working at a school- first as an English teacher and then in management. I say into 'the fire' as both Sweden and education are notorious feminist strongholds so it was only a matter of time before I was being torn at by women from many walks of Swedish professional and public life.

Fortunately there is a great deal of professional support here for those willing to blow the whistle and/ or raise the flag over workplace or domestic issues. The upshot was that, after years of us battling, the very female oriented management were disciplined over their passive aggressive and overt bullying and I had the opportunity to go and talk to a few professionals about what the fuck had been going on!

The very surprising thing that I found out from conversations with psychological professionals is that the ‘nice guy’, doormat issue is a big problem, with self-care/ self-interest and the rebuilding of self-esteem being the main aims of most counselling. I’m sure I’ve heard that somewhere before….

From my battles with Feminists, as well as willfully weakened people in general, it turns out that even the psychological profession sees their use of victimhood and bullying behavior as a big issue concerning the downfall of males and especially ‘nice guys’.

I completely understand that ‘anything for a quiet life’, which is obviously not just a Swedish phenomenon, is never going to end well. For better or for worse, I think it is the nature of women to constantly challenge men and, if we are not fighting and dying on the battlefields of history, we are instead necessarily fighting and dying on the domestic front. It is the challenge of men to keep themselves able to fight their corner- and that takes many attributes which men are not normally encouraged to develop- modern society being as it is, often organized around women with a penis envy that includes castrating men, disguised as female actualization.

It is important to keep yourself in peak mental, physical and spiritual condition always, not least so you can be ready to put your guard up and fight back at a moments’ notice, because you never know where the next venomous strike is going to come from- and I found the most surprising place it came from was on the inside where we, as men, were all hypnotized into submitting and dying quietly on the home front. Equally surprising was the realization that mental health professionals are on your side, rather than just working for the State, and will encourage you to take many of the steps prescribed by TRP in order to improve your situation.

The help is there if you can find a way to ask for it- and that is sometimes the hardest first step to take.
