Summary
I’ve been seeing a disturbing trend online where women claim that "incredible men are just average women," implying that men are simply playing catch-up to a female baseline. In this episode, I dive into the dangers of this "female supremacy" narrative and what I call the "Patriarchy Virus," which frames men as the root cause of every societal problem. I also break down why judging men by female metrics destroys relationships and discuss the immense, often overlooked effort it takes to chisel yourself into an exceptional man.

| 0:00.0 | All right, team, welcome back to The Man Talk Show. |
| 0:08.5 | I'm Connor Beaton. |
| 0:10.0 | And you probably saw the title of this video, so let's just drive straight in because it'll |
| 0:14.2 | be interesting in the comments section to see how this goes down. |
| 0:18.8 | But here we go. |
| 0:20.6 | Incredible men are just average women. Incredible men, |
| 0:24.4 | above average men, they are just average women. Now, I have, oddly enough, and maybe it's my |
| 0:30.6 | algorithm and the people that follow me have been, I've been sent these videos. I've been |
| 0:36.0 | shown these videos on Instagram, on YouTube, of women stating this. |
| 0:41.3 | And maybe you've heard some version of this. |

| 1:05.8 | just catching up to the baseline of the exceptionalism |
| 1:11.6 | that is women. |
| 1:13.6 | Now the challenge with this, |
| 1:15.6 | and the challenge that I actually want to address |
| 1:17.6 | in this video is the kind of female supremacy |
| 1:22.6 | that has started to, not started to, |
