Tangentially, in addition to dating men who make a lot of money doing something that lots of women find a bit evil, I highly recommend being a woman who makes a lot of money doing something that lots of women find a bit evil. Twice as much money!
Excited to see another update from my dating bible of choice. This has genuinely inspired me to book my 1:1s at EAGx London with the EA dating market in mind - what a prime opportunity lol.Surely being an AGI-pilled rationalist woman has to count for something?
More seriously, I’m still trying to wrap my head around getting past a lack of shared worldview. Maybe I’m conflating worldview with values, but I can’t shake the feeling that there needs to be strong alignment there. I do agree that it’s important to date someone whose intellect you respect, and who respects yours in return. Also reassuring to see “lack of neediness” described as a desirable trait.
While all this sounds like excellent advice, it also sounds like advice that the current generations are primed to absolutely reject. Which is probably telling and kind of the point, given how grim and depressing dating and marrying has become for young people.
sending this to every single woman i know. 🫶🏼
Yes, we all know that women prefer Gimli, no need to rub it in the face of that elf.

I could be wrong. It’s all tradeoffs in the end.
But I guess the more EA you are, the more uncertainty you should have in your worldview. It’s one of the tenets.

I think you’ve got to have a touch of the ‘tism to really want to follow this advice, but if it helps someone I’m happy
