Why Man's ruthlessness is an irresistible trait to women.
Thread
Women are naturally attracted to ruthlessness because its callous nature is attributed to endangerment and evil, but also to protectorship and preservation.
To be ruthless is not only to be cruel, but also to be unforgiving and unfeeling.
Cruelty is but one way to channel it, you can channel it to impose necessary boundaries, protect your family, punish betrayal, incite fear and command respect.
A woman feels compelled to respect a ruthless man because there is a concealed threat about him.
Even if he's not cruel to her, the fact he is capable of ruthlessly punishing her and regulating her chaos is very appealing to her, and for good reason. A ruthless man is able to detach from emotions and take an equitable and reasonable decision.
She finds much reassurance in his unemotional and firm order, add to that the fact he is fearlessly hostile should circumstance demand violent conflict: he makes her feel safe by his capacity for savagery and hostility. A dangerous man consoles her.
She sees an aspect of herself in his ruthlessness, for she too has a propensity for it.
Moreover, a ruthless man knows how to keep a woman accountable for her errors, for he knows how to punish and is inflexible where disloyalty is concerned.
When a woman knows her man will not forgive grave misconduct, she is that much more on edge and submissive to him.
A ruthless man puts her at ease by making her more submissive, civil, and less neurotic. He enhances her femininity and decreases volatility.
Ruthless masculinity moderates volatile femininity, he brings more order, less chaos; more balance, less worry.
Paradoxically, the fear he incites puts a woman at ease: by intimidating her, he makes her submissive. By constraining her, he straightens out.
It's a moving paradox: but by his subtlety and underlying formidableness, a ruthless man inspires a delicate fear in a woman that incites a kind of beneficial anxiety in her which compels her to behave more gently and less carelessly.
Not to mention, that ruthlessness is a crucial trait for protectorship, a man who is not formidable will be vulnerable and thus unable to protect his family. A ruthless man is dangerous as he is fearsome, he is not an easy prey: this is useful to women.
Man's instinct is to protect and provide, but he can't preserve these successfully without a capacity for cruelty. Thus, a man possessing indispensable traits to fulfil these duties is attractive to women - she finds comfort and serenity in safety.
In sum, to be a dangerous man is to be ruthless, since in its absence there is little to no formidableness. And without formidableness there is no safety. If you can't keep your family safe, you can't protect them, only make them vulnerable and weak.
It happens to be the case that women love those traits that make man strong guardians, able to defend and attack, able to impose boundaries and reject. A woman's chaos is alleviated by the relentless power of tough beasts: the beast in man brings order.
