@@damistenis9363 while in college, I looked at both sides of an issue. Are we a fluke/astroid spit or divine. Usually Jordan Peterson is on a high level of understanding. Note how he would try to inject his own comments. But he was more a backslapper than his typical contentious attitude to get to truth. And I was suspicious of it. I thought this topic would be informative, but in my observation David Buss has a generalized understanding and not that impressive. Impressed is not that good of a descriptive word, how about empty or lacking. Possibly because the conversation/discussion is from the evolutionary angle only ? One sided ? In psychology class, Skinner is heavily referenced, as I remember. But his works are not the rest of the story, but does lay ground work in the subject. I just found Buss comments boring and empty. Maybe because I have answered these questions already. Or heard them resonate in my thoughts over and over. Or have experienced them. My wife was born in a jungle, I've learned many things from her.

Despite what the other commenter Slay Bae being mostly true, you can avoid the fate of being the walking ATM machine by learning social skills AKA Game. In general, female mating strategy has a duality where they will chase resources but also the excitement of the bad boy archetype. Many rich men will not understand this and be shocked when a woman cheats on them with a broke bum because they were bored. In essence, you can learn how to express the same confidence and traits of bad boys while remaining smart enough to stay out of jail and still stack up your money so that you fulfill both halves of the female desire at the same time. Unfortunately, this is a difficult path that involves reprogramming what most people think they know about dating in a way that many find offensive. Society trains people to think that anything that shifts the relationship power balance in favor of men is inherently "predatory" without considering that most men just want to give women what they want so they don't die alone.

Add to that, the want for companionship within a relationship and sexual satisfaction, which are a more recent development (especially de second one), will make it so that more factors will be taken into account for the measurement of "competence".

This is a really good conversation and it's 100% true. Right now, I'm almost 25 years old. In the last 5 years I've had an above average success level with women. But all the way up until 20 years old I thought that being "nice" would get you a girlfriend or attraction from women. Once I accepted that I had to become better, this changed everything. I say this as an encouragement to other men because this is something you can change by lifting weights, getting smarter, gaining confidence, and making money. Once you accept that women are attracted to certain characteristics it becomes very liberating. Don't get mad at what the truth it, your life will be 100x better by accepting reality.

Drew, I understand what you've done and admire your initiative. However, there's a devastating disaster awaiting you if you let the wrong woman choose you. In your twenties you make yourself appealing to women, get married and have kids. You take on the financial responsibility of a mortgage, car payments, credit cards and life seems great. You're a good dad doing everything you thought you should. Then you reach age 50 and start to notice a distance between yourself and your wife - the intimate closeness and friendship you once had has dwindled and been replaced by contempt. One day your wife blindsides you with an affair or divorce papers and your world is turned upside down. You wonder what you did wrong but the truth is that you're simply of little value any more - you're just a servant with a paycheck. You lose your kids and your house, have to pay alimony and child support and the legal system is against you. You can't concentrate because you've got the equivalent of PTSD. This scenario can play out in different ways for both good men and women but the end result is still devastation. The important thing is to be very careful in choosing a life partner. Spend time watching KZread video series by Dr. Ramani and Dr. Carter (among others) about keeping away from narcissists. Best of luck!

Not exactly the best method in teaching.

Not to be a hypocrite, I respect your point and affirmation to Jordan in how he's been working on it, because there have been times over the years where I thought he derailed a deeper connection and exchange through his excitement to share something important or sheer openness.

Of course there is room for interruption when in casual creative conversation or to clarify understanding.

@@mattapusswreks7741 I agree with your conclusion and it's common for many -- another expression is "tangential thinking", "orthogonal thinking" or even "systems thinking" -- a familiar response for creative or open types (myself being one). It's not inherently bad but it can be a bad habit when it blocks another from fully developing an idea (particularly a guest on a video call where its not in a natural setting), and especially if they are more cogitative and need to formulate their thoughts into words slowly. But in this context, Jordan understands specifically that he is sometimes derailing the guest from fully expounding their thoughts or beliefs and has consciously chosen to take the position of humility and curiosity to create a much more productive conversation. Not to mention the whole premise of the "socratic method" where questioning is the root approach of reaching higher understanding.

One of the most exciting conversations I've listened to on this channel so far. Please have him back, Jordan!

I'll be keeping track of David Buss now. This was one of the MOST fascinating talks I've ever heard -- period. I'm actually still watching this on a different device :)

Such a rewarding experience listening two men who genuinely admire each other as they bounce ideas back and forth.

Dr. Peterson, this is so good. Thank you for your commitment to educating people via youtube after what you went through physically and professionally. As a fellow PhD and college Psychology instructor, your contributions are ALWAYS appreciated.

Definitely need a part 2..one of the best one so far... amazing 👏

I am so grateful for the possibility to listen to the people with knowledge and experience, true experts of their field and especially in the format of intelligent conversation with JBP. It’s priceless. Thank you!

There can never be too much of Dr.Buss. Would happily watch even twice longer an interview with him.

I would love to see Dr. Buss back. Such an insightful man and such interesting research!

I took a course taught by Dr. Buss at the University of Texas Austin. Super insightful lectures, and I’m grateful for his work. It’s been years since I took his course, and I’ve noticed most of his findings seem to be accurate. Thank you for your contributions, Dr. Buss!

This is probably the best discussion on the podcast yet. Absolutely awesome. MORE IS NEEDED.

My brain is tingling. EXTRAORDINARY conversation! I loved every delicious moment of it. I consider the questions asked that could not be decided upon and they're so provocative to furthering the discussion that I'll likely still be thinking about them for years. Thank you both for letting us be involved in this talk!

David Buss, I did not know much of you before but I think the work you are doing is fascinating and I look forward to checking out your book. Also, I do hope you return to the podcast soon as listening to you and Jordan together made for enjoyable and enlightening discussion. Jordan, as always it is a delight listening to you. You continue to challenge me and educate me. For that I am deeply grateful. 💛

What a great and interesting conversation! Thank you to both Dr. Peterson and Dr. Buss for this thought-provoking content.

Dr. Peterson, from the bottom of my heart… thank you so very much for documenting these topics with such wise and broad minds. For my children thank you.

👏👏👏some things I appreciate is to work hard, provide for those you love, pay attention to those you love and be able to have fun/laugh/have a conversation/and go on adventures with those you love! Thank you for such an awesome discussion! Going to go buy one of his books asap

Having spent many years living in a small rural village in Greece on of the things I learnt was what I came to understand as ‘moral economy’ and status derived from that. My experience directed me to find anthropologist who had studied the area I lived in... surprisingly few as I found. But my thoughts very much align with much of what is being said here. Thank you both .

Thank you Dr Peterson. I love allll that you say and do…. You’re such a Learned Mind … how we need more men like you ❤️🇨🇦

These men follow their curiosity without fear or prejudice. The fact that they are attacked by social engineers is proof that they follow the scientific methods and procedures. It is enlightening and fascinating to listen to them spit ball ideas as well as extrapolate findings. We are all elevated by their curiosity and reasoning.

It's really nice seeing the excitement from JP at having the opportunity to ask a question that has been bugging him for a long time, to a person that may well have some insight on the matter.

This totally explains some things I experienced as a young girl. I hated the subtle hidden women/girls hierarchies. Never obvious, never transparent. I always preferred male friends, although the problem was the female attraction they could feel. I always worked in mostly male environments (computer science, IT) and was quite happy there, only once worked in a place where the boss was female as well as many coworkers, and I hated that job, all the gossip and subtle messages of dislike or envy. Maybe because I had male siblings and a strong father figure, I was more comfortable with their psychology. Anyway, I am a woman and can't escape my biological traits!

One of the best conversations JP has had so far. Amazing. Learned a lot

This debate was thrilling ! I can't express how grateful I am to be able to listen to this for free. Thanks for this Doctor Peterson!

This episode gave me life. I’ve studied some of Mr. Buss’s work for my thesis about Mating Intelligence and its correlation with the Dark Triad and Character Strengths, and i was so amazed by it, now seeing him have such an enlightening conversation with my favorite human being on earth Dr. Peterson just makes me grateful to live at this point in time where I can listen to both of them for free on a podcast in youtube knowing that this two brilliant minds are still alive and can keep doing research and keep enlightening humanity with their knowledge.

Excellent collab! I’ll binge watch/listen to this one.

Mr. Peterson you have had a very positive impact in my life. Thank you for being the voice many of us need.

Fascinating mind of Dr. Peterson. Love his work and who he interviews. Thoughtful and provocative discussions of rigorous science, exposing all of our flaws. Great place to visit to reset the mind and reframe our beliefs.

Could listen to these two talk for hours. Hope to hear more of this conversation!

One thing I've learned from you Dr.Peterson is that pain is part and parcel of living. You either take it in the short-term or the long-term. The truth mitigates that pain by constraining it to the short-term (you get it up front and can manage it from there). Lying will not only project suffering into the future as well as across time, but it also lends you to unintended consequences. The truths that we discover may be painful, but that's only on it's surface. Once you get through that thin wrapping of discomfort, you have a sturdy platform/foundation to build future pleasures upon. We can handle some uncomfortable truths. Especially because the knowledge will lead to a more enriched and fulfilling life experience for us all.

Thank you both for a great conversation on a range of fascinating topics. It did seem as though you both were just warming up. Looking forward to the next time you meet. Will be adding David Buss to my essential Evolutionary Psychology reading list.

23:50 BAM ! Don't need a PHD to know this basic fact. Fathers knows best about the dangers their teenage girls are exposed to. JP thanks for keeping doing education with young men. And thanks for inviting Dr Buss. Lex Friedman also interviewed him. Great podcast

Hopefully Dr. Buss returns to the podcast to speak about his findings in evolutionary psychology on love and it's adaptations on humans, definitely will buy his books. Great episode!

I will never take those enlightning conversations for granted. Thank you.

Peterson and David Buss. Ok this is gonna be good -- locking in the time to watch versus listen this time.

With regards to the argument at 33:55 - giving the bigger share to the less prolific hunter also proves to others that you're SO good at acquiring resources that you have the self confidence to be able to repeat your performance without detrimental effects to yourself. A double whammy of showing and confirming your competence.

What a big pleasure having the change to experience a long and rich psychology conversation between two of the most prestigious and intelligent psychologists nowadays.

One of the best videos by Drs. Buss and Peterson.

There’s so much valuable information in this discussion. I’m going to have to listen to it a couple of times.😉👍🏾

This discussing has vastly expanded my understanding of the issues I've been having in my own life and also in the lives of my close ones. Truly inspiring and helpful. Thank you both for this! 🙏🏽

This is my first podcast watching Dr. Peterson and I am new to Dr. Buss. I have heard of Peterson prior but haven’t listened. Very glad I gave this one a shot because I foresee myself watching more. Great quality of conversation, topic choice, and overall respect and energy. Definitely a whole new level of thinking and learning. Wow.

Oh I can’t wait to read Buss’s latest! He’s a fantastic researcher AND writer!!!

Awesome, thought-provoking conversation. God Bless JP and Dr. David Buss.

Dr. Peterson, the quality of your interviews, whatever the subject, is substantial. I greatly enjoy them. Thank you.

These podcasts are so full of knowledge, I have to watch it a few times to completely take it in I believe

What an absolutely brilliant conversation. I cannot wait for the next.

Thank you both for letting us participate in this interesting discussion, best of luck to you both, and best wishes.

Jordan, thank you for pushing David on the monogamy as optimal point. I think it is imperative that scientists do try to contextualise thier research findings into an ‘all things considered’ understanding and I certainly believe you have come to a very sensible conclusion that indeed it is an optimal mating strategy in our modern environment with the current population size and resource distribution etc. I think we need more courageous scientists and thinkers like you who are willing to contextualise findings within the wider topic of how do we live a good life as modern humans even if they might be wrong, we have to at least try. Perhaps more scary for scientists who haven’t ventured out of thier own field but we need more cross-disciplinary thinking if we are to come up with effective solutions to our modern problems. Thank you for this wonderful conversation!

A mind blowing conversation, am always grateful to have the opportunity to listen to you. Thank very much Dr. Peterson

Such a polite discussion and so enthusiastic, wonderful insights especially with regard to female selection process and valuable traits in men!

I'm sitting on my porch, listening to this while finishing up a project for a client on my laptop and keeping an eye on my two youngest kids who are enjoying the unseasonably pleasant weather we're having today. My husband is currently fixing my car in the driveway. It was making this clanky metal sound whenever I drove over bumps in the road and he figured out that my struts were bad or something like that. All in all, this is a pretty typical weekend for my family... I try and get some things done while making sure our kids don't get into too much trouble and my husband fixes things and builds sh*t lol. My husband and I have been together for 15 years and married for 13 years. I love him more every day. I still want to jump on him at every opportunity lol. If I haven't gotten enough of at this point, I probably never will and that's a good thing. I love the feeling of never being able to get enough of him. It keeps me on my toes. None of that would be true if my husband wasn't the kind of man he is. If he didn't possess a stoic, grounded personality. If he wasn't a hard and competent worker. If he wasn't a successful and reliable provider. If he wasn't physically and emotionally strong. Etc. If he'd followed the path many guys follow these days and spent his time playing video games, watching porn and whining on social media, I wouldn't have gotten with him in the first place and we sure as hell wouldn't have gotten to where we are now.
