The woman constellates within the man’s psyche all the archaic, suppressed, and stereotypical “female” tendencies. This is the presentation of a white knight or mangina, a condition in Jungian psychology called “anima possession,” which can arise whenever a man has to deal with the opposite sex. And there is nothing in the man for her to surrender to except his kindness, his courtesy, his generosity, his chivalry. The women are the mothers of their husbands as well as of their children, yet at the same time there is in them the old, old primitive desire to be possessed, to yield, to surrender. I find that the men and women are giving their vital energy to everything except to the relation between themselves. This does not imply violence, but simply an aggressive psychological attitude, an attitude which cannot be endorsed in public but which women find inexplicably arousing: Take it from the founder of depth-psychology: women enjoy being possessed. It is not enough to conquer your male rivals-you must conquer your woman if you want a good relationship. We talk about how desperate we are for feminine women Carl Jung wisely notes that American women are just as desperate for masculine men.

But when any one told him that there was betting going on he would leave her, and his face became eager and full of desire, and his eyes would get very bright and his voice would get strong, and hard, and brutal. Yo could see that in her eyes he was not at all dangerous, and that she was not afraid of being mastered by him. He was always very polite and very kind, and paid her every respect.

I noticed that whenever the American husband spoke to his wife there was always a little melancholy note in his voice, as though he were not quite free as though he were a boy talking to an older woman.
We in the community point out this problem constantly: a generation of damaged men, raised by women, seeking a “return to the womb.” The contemptuous and disrespectful attitude of modern women that we enjoy criticizing is nothing more than the accumulated frustration with puerile men. They do not know what real independence is, so they must kneel down before this slave and change her into the one thing they instinctively (even when they are barbarians) respect: they change the slave idea into the mother idea.

If, while they are still barbaric by nature, some influence makes them see that they dare not treat women as slaves, then what do they do? They do not know yet how to love something which is equal to themselves. When men are still in the barbaric stage they make women their slaves. So while the American man’s conscious mind was occupied with manifest destiny and dominating the marketplace, what governed his relationship with women? A Crippling Mother-Complex This unnatural division of labor is now disintegrating because men are opting out of creating households entirely. It was not some evil conspiracy that forced the abdication of paternal rights and responsibilities to the state but a logical development of the trends that made America successful. That is why he is so kind and polite in his home, and why he can fight so hard in his business. It is what I call the laziness of the American man. This is what you call giving independence to the American woman. He gives the complete direction of his family life over to his wife. And I would say that the Libido of the American man is focused almost entirely upon his business, so that as a husband he is glad to have no responsibilities. There is only so much vital energy in any human being. Since at least 1912, men in America have been neglecting their family life: Let’s explore some of these truths, straight from the famous psychoanalyst himself.
The most dangerous truths, those about human nature itself, were effectively removed from American intellectual discourse. Unfortunately, the implications of this model were too unsettling for popular dissemination it was therefore suppressed, obfuscated, and piled with lies and nonsense by the academic guardians of the West who promoted simpler and less controversial ideas. Carl Jung’s Red Pill WisdomĬarl Jung devised a theory of the human mind with excellent predictive and explanatory powers-exactly what you would wish for in a scientific model. Carl Gustav JungĪlthough I discuss the highlights below, I encourage readers to check out the original interview, published in 1912 in the New York Times, available here. She wants independence, she wants to be free to do everything… to have all the opportunities which men have, and, at the same time she wants to be mastered by man and to be possessed in the archaic way of Europe. Today the American woman is still confused.
