Only Professor Vaknin could tackle such complexities about psychosocial and psychosexual topics with integrity, vast clinical knowledge, and engaging presentation for his listeners. I am an experienced clinician and therapist, and I greatly appreciate the quality of his lectures.

Our society didn't just arrive to this disfunction, it took centuries. As the professor stated, "women are catching up to men", regarding narcissism for instance. For centuries, throughout the world, women were considered property, first by their fathers, and then by their husbands, and in some places still are. Considered second class citizens, women lacked opportunities, and basic human rights, and therefore began fighting for independence and equality. Men set the bar. A bar rooted in power and control, lack of empathy, and extreme insecurity; the building blocks of narcissism. A bar that forced women to compete with men, instead of cooperate with men. Hence, the beginning of enhanced masculinity in women. Unfortunately what we're seeing now, is women reaching that bar, when we should be setting a new bar above it. Women like myself, who understand this, and understand what feminism is really about, self respect and the respect of others, are setting that new bar. We want emotionally mature good men to meet us there. We ALL need to drop the old bar. It is what lead us here to begin with. The hatred of each other will not get us there.

After getting actively involved in the US presidential elections of 2016 and 2020, I began studying narcissism and psychopathy for the exact reason of this title. Nothing can improve until this real pandemic of the dark personality is addressed. We as a species will not long survive it if we don’t.

In a weird way it feels super exciting to live in this time and be able to witness these and other major changes in society. let’s see how we as a macro organism will cope, or just slowly disappear to give space for mother’s nature next big project

You won’t be just witnessing it, you will be living through it. When I was a teen I thought witnessing a zombie apocalypse would be cool. Years of hard work grief and strife in the “regular world” has made me rethink how “exciting” the apocalypse could be. In reality, it’s stressful, hyper vigilance and suffering and/or witnessing people suffering. That doesn’t appeal to me.

If we keep dissecting/labeling human behaviors instead of directly addressing issues..we are missing the point..the point is to correct what no longer works and replace it with what does…we as a humanity need to awaken

In a society where we let people starve if they don’t have enough money something like this is inevitable - we have to pay to eat unlike animals we are in a slave system and it’s everyone for themselves in a system like this. I myself have been celibate for almost 2 years now and I could say it’s been a lot A lot less complicated on my life. Society is just becoming more sick and I find myself more and more just hanging out in nature and staying away.

@@PassionateFlower It’s so true we become so much healthier when we focus on building ourselves up and ignoring the needs of these psychopaths - and when we do we’re able to be around higher quality people and find more meaningful things - I learned how to grow food it has been one of the most healing experiences of my life growing food and I encourage anyone to try and get more in touch with nature - it really does heal you and when you start to grow your own food you start to see the world in a completely different way. It has given me a sense of freedom that I never had with my family or romantic partners - my dog loves me unconditionally and being celibate has cleared my mind and cleared out some of these soul ties - I’m not perfect still healing lots of pain - but I’ve never been so clear and now I’m so picky - I don’t care about this culture anymore - we have to get back to the basics - it’s not your fault - we’re in a psychopath game and the only way to win is to not play - I wish you healing and real love ❤️

Agreed.. And it's good to see more people awakening in this new world we are living.

I chose to split up instead of cheating, but yes, there is no other alternative in one-sided relationships/marriages; there is no future. Acceptance is the only thing that brings peace.

When prof. Sam V. talks about borderline and their behavior it started to hit close to home. After watching this video, I'm probably not a borderline instead, maybe the manifestations of subclinical psychopathy behaviors are a sheer consequence of my environment& culture. This is scary shit that we all need to wake up to.

You, Professor Vaknin have a incredible mind as well as an incredible understanding of the mind, both forms. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with myself and others who desperately needed your insight and interpretations to rewrite our story in the aftermath of what was once unimaginable . I appriciate you.

Simply amazing insight into the post-modern psycho-social landscape. I've seen it myself in the world around me and in my own relationships. Thank you!

Well that was cheerful 😵‍💫

We take the earths resources for granted, we take eachothers resources for granted. As if the future is set in stone. Being that this is how humanity treats the gift of life, I'm glad we aren't procreating as much. We don't deserve the privilege, and the children don't deserve the burden. The trauma bonds must end.

Please make a video showing strategies on how to have a family gathering (invited for our son’s birthday celebration) with our son and his wife’s side of family. His wife and her side of the family are poisonous, toxic controlling narcissists.

Do not sleep around ever. Very dangerous. Pick a mate very very carefully if you must. Sex is not that important to ruin your life just to get laid. No way Dont fall for peer pressure to have sex for any reason. You dont need it!!!!!! Develop yourself in all aspects forget sex. Later when the right person comes you are so developed and equipt that you are mature, skilled, talented to be a perfect partner in a real relationship. Sex cannot keep a couple together.

Thank you Professor Sam Vaknin. This information is very much appreciated.

As a man who is trying to find a wife it's really hard to find one tbh. Even in my country India behavior of women has taken a paradigm shift. They are acting like western women now hence more women are single even in mid 30s and the numbers are increasing. In metropolitan cities like Delhi and Mumbai picking up a woman at bars is highly prevalent. Most marriages took place in arranged marriage settings and I don't think many has the faculty and maturity to find a husband material. In short both genders are more frustrated than ever. It's really hard to survive in these modern times. Also divorces are skyrocketing even here in India and it's very sad situation. Women need more soul searching than men in my opinion. Most men anyways are immature. Nothing can be a bigger disaster for women than to be dealing with a man child.

The earth would not exist without people. All this sexual deviance is demonic. Sex outside of true relationship is evil and a path to demonic infestation.

I'm sure she is incredibly attractive and beautiful but she wants to many men and shares her power to little with other women. So that strong connection you explain while able to be rememebered will be lost until one is truly at one with all self identified versions of their self. If they both arent feeling it like meh theyre not trying like they uzed too it may be because he has always been by her side she just thought he would never shut up lol. In the end we are only symbols and nouns once you denounce yourself to be absorbed into a greater consciousness. To be able to have the breath to not feel hammered or mentally abused is greatly significant almost miraculous. If these lies aren't true. Ask the limbless man that helped me put hands and feets to this mr potatoa head idea.
