I have a chestpiece, no symbolism or meaning attached to it. Got it when I was 18, I thought it was cool. That's it. Some stats about me: 25 yo, IQ 160 and I run 2 companies. I used to be aimless in life, not anymore. Self thought: 3D, design, animation, 50+ softwares, programming (C and Python), discrete mathematics, computer science, formal logical systems and business. Everything I did or do in life is for myself. I am also against black and white thinking, which is what this comment section mostly displays.

It isn't black and white. It really depends on what kind of muscles. Too big is a turn off since it indicates genetic deficiencies with hormonal balances. Too little makes you look like a bitch. The sweet spot is broad shoulders, big arms, with low BF, just like Brad Pit in The Fightclub.
Now, when it comes to men, most men like a little more muscles than what is actually attractive to women. Same with beards. All the stuff men are into only generates attraction from other men ironically. Most buff dudes with beards get most compliments from other men. Since it demands respect. If you want to be respected get big and get a beard. If you want women attraction get the warrior physique.
Now, you can still become quite big and get women. Easy. Why? Because supply of big dudes is very low, while the niche group of women that find those types of guys attractive is much larger in proportion to the supply. So to the big dudes, they are 100% confident that there muscles generate a lot of attraction. Same with dudes with long hair.
But in fact, most women like the warrior physique you can research this yourself, polls and studies have been done.
Personally, I am around 10 to 12% BF, I am not impressive with clothes on, although my shoulders have gotten a bit wider lately. But when I take of my clothes some jaws drop. It sucks that the gym are closed now though.

It depends, most women actually don't find exaggerated muscles attractive since instinctually it indicates genetic deficiencies with hormones. What they do find attractive is that low body fat and muscles similar to Tyler Durden from Fight Club. There have been pols done, and that is what is most attractive to most women. Because those are functional muscles that aid with strength. Now don't get me wrong while those muscles look natural in the eyes of women they are still made in the gym.
There is only a small group of women that find exaggerated muscles attractive, those are the women that are also into the lifestyle of body building (but then for women). Here is the catch, men that are very muscular are very rare, so to them it feels like all women are attracted to them because the overly muscular types are low in supply, while the demand is higher. So they would swear that muscles are attractive.
Note, all of this is based on polls and research.
And same applies with long hair, I had long hair, I am growing it again. I would swear that I got more attraction with my long hair than with short hair, due to the supply of guys with long hair being scant, while the demand higher.

This only applies to people that haven't taken control of their life like any other way to get brainwashed e.g. astrology, personality profiling, mbti, numerology, and in this case using generations to type people. Yes, these things work, that is if you are a drone, and have not taken control of your life. I am in between millennial and gen z, born just one year too early to be a gen z, but also have gen z traits. So I see myself a bit like both. But, I have no trouble working hard for myself and living the good life. You just have to be ruthless and go out there to get what you want no matter what, mindset > anything else.

As much as I love you man, get of your high horse, you are not an expert at everything just because you are successful. You yourself say to look at the source and you are imho a very poor source for this subject matter. You ask: How has that been working out for you so far. A great question. Well let me share my story again since youtube deleted it again.
I have no problems with getting women, despite being short I still have an above-average face. I lost my virginity around the age of 14 and no trouble getting sex. I am not incel, not a male model or the peak of aesthetic genetics either, but I do fine for myself. I wanted to state this before people are going to say that we do this because we can't get any. From what I've read it is often the dudes that get the most that are in desperate need of semen retention and find this path.
I did semen retention for 9 months. I went from living in my mom's basement to earning 10k euro a month putting me in the 0,01th percentile of earners in The Netherlands. I attribute this success 75% to semen retention. I went from socially anxious to having friends with a collective net worth in the millions. When you retain your life force and energy you just become more charismatic and ambitious. Also, I've lost weight and put some decent muscle, and totally changed my nutrition. I am around 14% body fat and still cutting. Looking forward to my first lean bulk. If you are not at least as successful as me you better listen to me and try it out for yourself, because you need to look at the source, isn't that right? If you are more successful than me, just ignore me and keep doing your thing. I've only been in business for 9 months and just started, I'll be back more successful and I'll give the exact same advice.

I think you misunderstood me, which doesn't surprise me since we already asserted that you lack intelligence.
A: I'm not religious, therefore I don't have to provide evidence for anything.
B: I just pointed out the beautiful fact that, in this case, there was some causation. She tried to sugar coat the fact that atheists are smarter by saying that causation does not imply correlation. But the reason she used for that was the fact that Atheists are against irrational ideas/beliefs. If that was her logic, then it would mean that Atheists are in fact smarter, because smart people don't believe in irrational things. Point is, her initial reason for this not being necessarily true was: correlation does not imply causation, however, she contradicted her self by pointing out that Atheists don't believe in irrational things.
C: In case you are going to bash on me because I wasn't clear enough. I'm going to prove to you that you are stupid.
My initial comment:
''Correlation does not imply causation, proceeds to explain how RELIGION IS IRRATIONAL. The counter argument trying to sugar coat THIS FACTis hilariously bad. ''
Why would I call the statement saying: religion is irrational a fact, if I was -- like you claim -- religious?
Obviously, no religious person would say that religion being irrational is a fact. You see, you simply misread me. The reason is simple, it's because you have a low IQ, so you tend to make blunders like these. I work with Low-IQ people, they make similar blunders to yours, having a hard time reading and such.

tara willis You know there is always an immense stupidity into making statements , about ALL(Everything). In any case whatsoever, statements about all (fill in the blank) Are useless and not based on logic.
If you just use you brain, a little bit. Statistically speaking it's just impossible for every philosopher to be introvert.
I thought a quote would be some nice oil and an addition to what i said.
Also you seem to not be able to draw inferences from quotes ,or the way people speak. I expected you to be a little bit smarter. Guess i overestimated your analytical abilities.
If you just read about Socrates his life, it's obvious that he was an Extrovert. I agree with this ,and a lot of experts on personality profiling agree with me. I rather listen to my own deductions and those of the professionals ,rather than some random idiot like you on the internet.
http://www.celebritytypes.com/entp.php
(Plenty of extroverted philosophers)
There was no need for you to use curse words. This is only proof of the stupidity ,and lack of wit. Hence why you are getting frustrated. Because you can't use your own mind,and logic to debunk what i said. You just scream like a baboon, and insult me.

I am not sure about the pupil hypothesis you pose, did you come up with that yourself or is neuroscientifically backed? As I understand pupil size is correlated to arousal, and people with high IQ generate thoughts correlated with high arousal (e.g. excitement). Another correlation is using working memory. You can go to a mirror right now and do something that requires working memory like recalling the alphabet backwards, you will see your pupils dilate. These are some facts that have been found neuroscientifically, thus we may conclude that larger pupil sizes are correlated to complex mental processes. Now, it is true that when your pupils dilate more light enters your eyes, in other words, information. Hence the reason pupils shrink when exposed to bright light (protection mechanism). Therefore, we may, indeed, conclude that people with large pupils take in more information.

My mom is a single mom and she did have a relationship with another man while he lived in the house. I have lived with that man for 5 or 8 years, to be honest, I don't remember. Did I enjoy his company? Definitely! But now that he is gone out of my life, honestly, I don't miss him, I rarely even think about him. I still see him occasionally when he does grocery shopping since he lives nearby. He is actually pretty old, grey hair and stuff. Sometimes I chat with him out of courtesy, but most of the times I just hide, because I find him boring tbh. So no, I can't say I love him, I just liked that he was a decent provider and enjoyed the money and stuff I got from him lol. I saw him more as an adult friend.

@alkair422 Whoever I am is irrelevant to the topic at hand, real love is chemicals in your brain. But love as a human concept is indeed a bit more philosophical, things like relationships, but then again that is predicated upon evolutionary drives. Might I ask what made you think that I failed at love? Seems like quite the general statement, from my experience almost everyone fails at love, it is extremely rare to meet a couple that has been together since they first started their relationship, meanwhile divorce rates are going up. Love inevitably creates feelings of jealousy, hatred and envy. No love might create loneliness but that is if you are a needy person that always wants external validation. For some friends is enough to fill the void. Also, women don't love men in the same way men love men, both members of the species have different concepts of love. Men love for love sake, that is how they have been conditioned by their mothers since they were infants. Women, on the other hand, have been conditioned that to be loved is to receive, when they become older there is continuity of love, since men are willing to be givers and providers. Meanwhile, there is a discontinuity for the men-concept of love, that is the result of how women have been thought to love. Both concepts are diametrically opposed, and I haven't even started on the evolutionary psychology elements! Offspring is EVERYTHING for a woman. The only woman that will ever love as a man loves, is his mother. Anyway, I am rambling.

No-fap is probably the topic most of these gurus are most ignorant about, unfortunately. Their understanding is only superficial. I do agree with the fact that men that have an abundance of women don't talk about it. However, likewise, having an abundance of women is equally a good reason to do no-fap. Many great people did no-fap, Muhammed Ali, Mike Tyson, Nikola Tesla, Steve Jobs etc. You think these high-value men didn't have an abundance of women? It just grinds my gears how many successful men like yourself with incredible depth of knowledge can't understand something as simple as that not ejaculating saves you energy to work on your goals and that it has benefits. Nothing to do with whether you get women or not, and saying so, unfortunately, downplays the entire topic and is kinda sneaky and a bit of a shaming tactic. I attribute 75% of my success to not masturbating and the consequences of that which is more energy and less wasting time on chasing women. I've gone to living in my mom's basement to finally having my own place and 2 business within a year due to not masturbating. Please educate yourself on the topic and don't down play it. I admit if that if you do TRT no-fap is not that relevant anymore, but it is highly relevant if you are young and have lots of testosterone to spare.

@Renewed I don't disagree that he might appeal to a large audience, but it does not follow from that fact that people smarter than him might not enjoy listening to him. A lot of smart physicists, way smarter than Harris, are great scientists but poor philosophers, which could be a reason as to why a smarter person would enjoy listening to his podcast or material. Not saying this is always the case, just trying to point out that it isn't as black and white as you suggest. And that is ignoring the fact that he sometimes has extremely smart people on his podcasts, smarter than Sam himself e.g. David Deutsche, which could be another reason for a person smarter than Sam listening to his material.
Regarding Sam's intelligence, he might be the average person's intellectual but that doesn't dispute the point that he IS smart. I think Sam's IQ is around that of Peterson's, since it is not obviously clear which of the two is smarter. At least the contrast is not stark. Although Sam is more verbally fluent in my opinion. JP's has stated that his verbal IQ was around 150, which is indeed a number that could be seen as the average person's intellectual. But it does not dispute that that number represents the 99th percentile, meaning smarter than 99% of the population, thus Sam or JP being "freacking smart" is a justified statement. They might not be brilliant or geniuses, but they are smart ; - )
Also, I don't dispute that brilliant people are more likely to listen to other brilliant people, I am only disputing the certainty of that being ALWAYS the case. Nor am I saying that you say this or anyone else says this, I am merely sharing my thoughts. I don't claim myself to be smart, all I can say is that I am rational, but I know some extremely smart people that often are open minded to all kinds of perspectives no matter the source, an intellectual curiosity if you will. For example, I know a first order logician and mathematician(IQ 175) that greatly enjoys Sam's philosophical thinking since he himself doesn't study philosophy by vocation, which proves one of my earlier points.
Whether my comment proves something or not, I really don't know, I regard psychoanalyzing online comments as pseudoscience, especially comments with not much to go by. Anyway, hope this has clarified why I felt compelled to make that comment, also my intention wasn't to "attack" you personally with that comment, it was a reaction to another comment I read, that claimed Sam is NOT smart, which I disagreed with for the aforementioned reasons.
Cheers!

@Renewed,
Then I must have clicked the 'reply' button without thinking, I wasn't aware YouTube registers that as a reply, I thought only if you see the '@' symbol. Regarding what you said, it is like you can read my mind, I find myself in a similar situation, and I completely agree. JP is a great scientist when it comes to psychology, but in general, he is not as rigorous or scientific as he claims he is. And some of his claims are blatantly absurd like the demi-snake human paintings from around the world represent a DNA helix, he doesn't take Occam's Razor into consideration or values the elegance of simplicity over sophistry, the paintings are better explained that that is simply the way snakes mate.
