Okay, here is where things get a little tricky. With Egocentrism and Narcissism, there are a lot of articles and literature that support my findings. Solipsism however is not science but a concept based on philosophy. There are literatures about it but much like philosophy, it really depends on how well the topic is presented and discussed. In this way, Solipsism is open to many interpretations which I wholeheartedly welcome. My aim for this article is to convince you of my definition of Solipsism, and attempt to prove that women are Solipsistic to varying degrees. Hopefully I am able to give you – the reader – something worthwhile to consider.
Before I begin, I also need to make a few
caveats. Solipsism is not a psychological concept; it started out as an idea.
Blue Pillers contend that this means Solipsism is not a behavioral trait; yeah,
well, sort of. But if we agree Solipsism as an idea, then we can also agree
that it can be a state of mind hence it also has psychological implications and
applications. So in the process of making Solipsism relevant to us, I will
borrow philosophical terms to explain approximately and accurately, to the best
of my abilities, what Solipsism is; in the same spirit that we, throughout history,
continue to invent and redefine terms to describe phenomena that we frequently
encounter such as Gravity, Blackhole, Surfing, Selfie, Googling and etcetera.
I am the One and Only (nobody I’d rather be)
I have read a lot of definitions for Solipsism.
Some say it is extreme egocentrism while some equate it to extreme Narcissism.
I think philosophers tend to agree on the understanding of solipsism as Descartes’ Cogito Ergo Sum, - I think therefore I am. Descartes was in the view that the individual
understands all psychological concepts -- such as thinking, willing, perceiving
-- by analogy with his mental state. This led Descartes to doubt the existence
of the world he perceived and he retreated to the only thing that he could not
doubt; his own conscious self (Mastin, 2008). I find this to be the best
definition of Solipsism and so I would like to use it.
Solipsism is to doubt the existence of the
world that the person perceives and retreating to the only thing the person
does not doubt; her own conscious mind.
In the context of the nature of existence and
justified belief, Solipsism is the position that the mind is the only thing
that can be known to be true and that knowledge of anything outside the mind is
unjustified. That is just a fancy way of saying that solipsism means “I
believe I’m the only one that is right base on what only I know; so you must be
wrong even if you can prove you are right.” Unlike a narcissist who
believes that your existence is only for her pleasure, or an egocentric who
thinks you are her fan; to the Solipsistic, your arguments are relatively
meaningless and only she can prove herself wrong but she cannot doubt her own
self because she believes that only her own mind is meaningful. If you have
ever argued with a woman, you will appreciate this axiom.
This is why many people misconstrue Solipsism
with Narcissism and Egocentrism; on the surface, it seems that the person is
arrogant or self-absorbed but that is not the case. Arrogance implies that she
sees everyone as a threat of shame to her and Self-absorbed implies she engages
in her own deluded fantasy. The Solipsistic does not acknowledge you as a
threat because you are meaningless to her. She also engages the
real world but rejects anything that she does not agree with and any evidence
contrary to her liking is dismissed.
Oh yeah, it is total bullshit but you have to
appreciate the utter fuckery of it all. And as case evidence, here is the video
of Chelsea, explaining the meaning of miles per hour.
Travis Chambers 2011
Okay yes this is hilarious but do note the
underlying salient point here. This woman is convinced – convinced – that she
is right. Key phrases such as “you don’t make sense, I make sense,” and
“you don’t know the answer! You’re guesstimating like I’m guesstimating,”
shows that Chelsea from the video had no doubt in her mind that she was
correct; this is not something that you get from mere egocentrism or
narcissism. No, this sense of unconditional trust to one’s own mind in the face
of overwhelming evidence is akin to religious fanatical blind faith and that is
exactly what Solipsism is.
There will be people out there who is going to
say “Come on! She’s just dumb!” This is inaccurate; real stupidity implies
learning disability. Chelsea understood the question before trying and failing
beautifully to solve it because she could only conceptualize the problem by
analogy to her own experiences, “If I run a mile in 9 minutes but if I’m in
shape it’s 7 minutes.” No, what she has is a steadfast faith that the
correct answer to the question lies within her own personal thoughts and
experiences and not from scientific conclusions or deductive reasoning. This
can be an argument why women are so under-represented in STEM fields; solipsistic
women are unable to conceptualize, and are sceptical of, abstractions that are bigger and far removed from their perspective such as science, technology, engineering or mathematics.
This type of baseless trust is the same as the
belief in the paranormal and superstition but instead of a belief in a
phenomenon in the absence of evidence, Solipsism doubts everything even when
there is solid proof. This is why Solipsism
is the worst of all possible bullshit philosophy and the reason people think
philosophers are jackasses (Brown, 2007). Now, that is not to say that
Solipsism, Narcissism and Egocentrism are not related; they definitely are. If
Egocentrism is the thought process and Narcissism is the behavioral trait,
Solipsism then is the principal tenet.
If Narcissism mutated from a child’s
Relativistic Hedonism, Solipsism is derived from a child’s egocentric Morality
of Constraints (Crosser, 2014) -- where the child is rigid in morals and rules
with the exception of herself -- transfigured into a dogmatic and zealous trust
of one’s own mind even in the face of overwhelming evidence.
There’s only right and wrong à I
only know I’m right, so you’re always wrong
(Morality of Constraints) à (Solipsism)
I
Don’t Want To See You
Flanagan (1991:144-145) wrote that Piaget was
of the opinion that an infant perceives the world as full of objects that go in
and out of view which therefore from her perspective go in and out of
existence. Flanagan went on to mention that a child under 8 years old behaves
like a metaphysical idealist (Morality of Constraints) and an epistemological
relativist (Relativistic Hedonism), where she frequently mistakes between what
appears to be reality and her perspective as the perspective. A cat 5
feet away is bigger than the car 50 feet away so the cat is bigger. This is
what is called Infant Solipsism and all children are somewhat solipsistic.
To apply this to our context, I would like to
introduce a similar concept called Infantile Solipsism which is when a woman
perceives the world as full of appliances that go up and down in terms of its use
to her which therefore from her perspective can go from meaningful to
meaningless. Now please take a moment to consider that statement; if from
her perspective something is considered as meaningless, that means that thing
does not exist at least in her mind.
Infantile Solipsism is ‘you only see what
you want to see,’ although that is only half of it because ‘you also won’t
see what you don’t want to see.’ This can explain why some people –
especially Narcissist – have difficulty empathizing with others; if you are
meaningless to her then all your actions are meaningless. It also explain why
women can easily dismiss obvious evidences so easily; if something is
meaningless then it does not exist and conversely, if she perceives something
as non-existent then every meaningful detail attached to that thing is null.
How do we prove this?
In part 2 of this series I examine the Narcissism
exhibited by the British Suffragette’s Movement of 1906. Remember, Narcissism
is the behavior and not the belief; the suffragettes believed that they were
oppressed by not being able to vote at a time when 6 out of 10 men could not
vote either (manwomanmyth 2010). You see, to the feminists and suffragettes,
they perceive these men as meaningless and worthless and so they did not
exist.
These women only saw the men who owned land,
hence they believed that all men owned land and could vote and thus were
oppressing women while not acknowledging the majority of men who could not vote
too. But when the First World War started and they needed men to fight,
Emmeline and her daughter Christabel Pankhurst saw a use for these men who
could not vote and shamed them to die for the war. It was their deaths and not
their lives that were meaningful to the feminists; these men were still
worthless in their Infantile Solipsist view.
And this is why there is such a thing as Male
Disposability; because when women view men as worthless, they are then disposable. This
is why when the Titanic sank, women and children and not men were put on
lifeboats and were saved (Straughan 2011). That is why when men die in coal
mines no one gives a damn. This is why veterans of war are repeatedly abandoned by
their country after they have served them honorably. It is due to this female
solipsistic belief that the majority of men are meaningless and worthless.
Infantile Solipsism is also the principal
belief behind the sense of entitlement. A woman only sees those who are
wealthier than her, she becomes envious and she wants that wealth for herself,
not acknowledging that there are many people around her that are not as well off
as she is. She only feels her wants and that is being entitled for a luxurious
lifestyle; her belief in this sense of self-entitlement drives her to search
for ways to achieve that goal which leads to Hypergamy.
What? Not All Women Are Like That? Here’s a
clip from the other side of the world.
German MGTOW (2013)
And we know that women all over the world are
hypergamous because a study conducted worldwide across 37 cultures strongly
support the position that women prefer marriage partners who either have or
have the potential to obtain social status and control material resources (Buss
1989). This study included that women rated ‘good financial prospect’ higher
than did men in all cultures. Hence most women are hypergamous and this belief
that they deserve a luxury stems from their self-absorbed, envious, infantile
perspective that they are entitled to such things.
But it does not stop there.
Among the most fundamental belief that the
woman ascribe to is the belief that women are not actors in their own lives but
are acted upon which is called Female Hypoagency (Ginkgo 2011). Women believe that
they lack the ability act, to affect things and produce no effects
(ThinkingApe-TV 2012). Women only want to see men do things and do not want
to see themselves doing it; this is Infantile Solipsism. And because they only
want believe to this, they demand others – specifically men – to do and act for
them in what is termed as Male Hyperagency. Feminism then can be viewed as a
belief system – a religion – based on feminine tenets such as Female Hypoagency
where the feminazis cry victim to the Descartian-like Evil Demon fantasy of the
Patriarchy or the traditionalist maidens feign damseling to the Gynocracy.
Gynocentrism then is cultural Male Hyperagency which
is one of the most blatantly Narcissistic Exploitation by women. Gynocentrism
includes the idea that men should slave and sacrifice themselves for women and
that women’s dysfunctional behavior should be forgiven and forgotten i.e.
Narcissistic Supply and the Pussy Pass. Feminism is the organized religion of
Female Solipsistic Psychosis that spawned and nurtured Gynocentrism which is the cultural
enslavement of men that includes sending men to their death in wartime. Gynocentrism
is essentially, the systemic gender violence discrimination of men;
Gynocentrism is Misandry.
And we can prove this Misandry by looking at
Rape Shield Laws where men cannot even defend themselves against the woman’s accusations
of rape which was proven to be false such as the Duke Lacrosse case (Appleborne
2007). We can also look at British Crime Survey that puts domestic violence against
men by women in the U.K. at 40% and how the society at large ignore this
(Hoyle 2013). We can also see how British society is so blatantly biased against
fathers that 60% of household in cities such as Cardiff, Liverpool and
Sheffield is fatherless (Sawer, 2013). All of this proves that Gynocentrism and
Feminism are both discriminatory and evil.
Below is a graphical example of the
relationship between Egocentrism, Narcissism and Solipsism
