Dominance is PSYCHOLOGICAL not PHYSICAL: an important message for men 

The internet abounds with advice for men looking to become more dominant, more alpha. And almost all of this advice includes directives to get bigger, get stronger. While this is certainly a worthwhile goal, this direction can do men a disservice by equating physical presence with dominance. This is not the case. Dominance is psychological, not physical. And you already know this is true. The contest for dominance is fought on the psychological field in society. So do not neglect this important reality.

Dear men, control the frame. Also, never ever argue with a woman. The man who says less always wins. It’s your actions and attitude that speak volumes.

Getting big or learning how to fight isn't about physical dominance over women; it's about disciplining your mind, building skills, becoming more resilient. A muscular build is a neat portable trophy of these things. Relational dominance between sexes is in attraction. When you appear disciplined and fit, you are more rare, and you attract better and more women. Women compete for rare, attractive, disciplined men- it's social economics. Your power is in your choice and ability to walk away, and not accepting less than you deserve. You set the standard. A partner who recognizes your value will want to cooperate to stay near to you because she knows you have other women who would love to have you. Especially if you are helpful to her hierarchy of needs including emotional and physical safety. This is dominance. Communicate clearly and with compassion, but do not argue with women. If she deeply cares, she probably doesn't want to beat you in an argument anyway (remember, she's not a dude); she wants to connect with you and feel heard. If she trusts you are good for her, she doesn't want to dominate you verbally or at all, so don't compete on that level. If she gets in her head that you two should be competing, tell her no- she can argue like that with friends. If it gets really bad, ask her about her intentions for wanting to argue with you. If you're factually incorrect, apologize and fix it. If she is factually incorrect, gently teach her. If you have different opinions, let them coexist. If you think a different action is necessary, decide together and soothe the relational elements. You can be wrong or not have your way and still, these are all wins. Logically demolishing a woman's argument or attacking a woman intelligence, personality, or body are all losses, and shows your own lack of mental discipline. Because you are not meant to compete with your partners like that. This is sooo important, and guys miss this all the time. It also diminishes your partner, which makes YOU worse. Dominance is leadership- anyone who is submissive to you should become better for being with you, and you get better from them and your own practices. You are not showing intersexual dominance by degrading or overpowering your partners- you're being a lame, technically anti-social, and at worst, abusive. She will sometimes test you to make sure that you're steady- arguing shows that you are less steady than the days when you did not argue. The more you argue, the worse it gets. Dominance is your confidence in your sense of efficacy, ability to influence your environment, and remain increasingly attractive and adorable to women.

Actually, this is something my sister told me off hand. I was going to the gym, and she asked me if I was doing it because I found a girl and I said no. She said it is not about "that". I did not get it at first, but after a few years of observing relationships (inter/intra, platonic or otherwise), I can confidently say it is frame of mind. Nothing to do with muscles, being a brute or whatnot...frame of mind is critical. If you are all jacked up but still unsure of yourself, it will show.

Well weights work for the psychological and hormonal aspects. It's not about the muscle or strength gain but about the discipline, dedication and perseverance.

It is easy to dominate any verbal confrontation. Be the even volumed, level headed, non insulting, non gesturing one who's saying simple facts and who's not being emotionally drawn into the confrontation and who knows when to use silence tactically. That infuriates the other party, who will realize that his/her words are having absolutely no effect on you. Stand by, because the next phase in their mind is to lash out physically. This is where the being in shape and being combatively skilled will come into play.

So true. I would fail miserably in a verbal combat scenario. I grew up as a nice guy. Now I'm recovering.

After being raised shackled in prison by a bipolar psychopath narcissist of a father and a pure evil, self-absorbed sociopath of a mom. This and life makes perfect sense to me for a multitude of reasons!

That's why the concept of frame is so important for men.

In my experience the women I've argued with will abandon reason when it suits in order to remain in the dominant position. If that doesn't work, then taking on the role of the victim is next. I have some female friends who absolutely do not do this with their partner, which is hopeful to see, but rare.

This is exactly why I'm divorced and single by choice. It's just not worth the mental gymnastics to be in a relationship with most women anymore.

The pursuit of physical dominance should assist in the journey to psychological dominance. Through the physical, you can ALSO learn discipline, patience, grit and gain self respect. However, many physically strong men are incredibly submissive when it comes to women. They lose all the lessons they should have learned through the physical training. Plenty of soldiers, who have seen action and have killed many men, come home and cower to their wives. Dominance absolutely is a mental thing. Thanks for pointing this out.

When I was a kid, the bullies were sometimes physical but this was the exception not the rule, usually the meaner boys would spread around rumours and false accusations. It didn't matter if the bully was the shortest kid in class or the tallest kid in class, he would usually use his social relationships to spread false rumours.

I worked as a bounce for years. I was a physical freak with skills, but that wasn't my edge. You figure out what people are afraid to loose and what they desire in a given situation. The physical capacity was simply a tool at my disposal. My job was to gain compliance. I rarely resorted to being physical.

..physical presence/dominance is very real.. one simply doesnt mess with someone who can destroy him physically ..its subconsciously in our DNA..

The only reason women seem more adept to verbal warfare is due to the fact that they sense childhood trauma and hit you where it hurts. Men could do that with ease, but men are mostly good people. There are two pathways from here: 1.Adress your childhood trauma with a professional and stick to the process like your life depends on it, because it does. Makes you invincible. 2.Don't hold back and hit her where it hurts. Father issues, bad genetics, mother's jealousy, aging, asymmetry in the body/face. the usual stuff. Makes you deadly.

On the dating apps, the girls see the man's body and not psychology. So men go to gym to get pumped. To be dominant psychologically over females, men need to be do these during an argument: 1) Stay calm at all times. Do not lose temper. 2) First listen to what she has to say without reacting. 3) Try to understand what she really wants. Maybe nothing. Maybe she just wants attention. Is there is a hidden motive? Women are rarely straight communicators. You are supposed to decipher the unspoken message. 4) Recognize all the BS, lies, fallacies, double standards, hypocrisy, gaslighting, mixing of irrelevant stuff, and plain absence of logic. 5) Do not bring up any of that unless necessary. Avoid arguments as much as possible because you cannot logically argue against irrational outbursts. 6) If she demands an action and you agree then say so with approval. If you do not agree, say so with minimum necessary justification. 7) If you feel disrespected, call her out and take swift and decisive action so that she gets the message disrespect won't be tolerated or ignored. 8) If she puts on too much show of drama or waterworks, leave the scene. 9) Do not give in to her crying and shaming/bullying. She must know you will walk out of the relationship and never look back if she pushes you too far. 10) If she turns violent or verbally abusive, immediately start recording using your phone. In case she calls the police on you, you can defend yourself if you have recording.

I agree, and I think 50 to 60% of dating game is establishing dominance and being able to spar and answer objections.

I would say it's mostly young men who think this way. Mature men later understand why you workout. It's not just to impress women. It's to maintain a healthy body and mind. Also it creates healthy habits and discipline. Discipline in turn can be used in various ways to also improve your mental fortitude. I would say they go hand-in-hand.

I think I'm pretty decent with verbal dominance and my technique is to first, always stay grounded in truth and reason, and second be as articulate as possible. A simple example is a math case where your argument is that 2+2=4 and someone else's is 2+2=10. By being grounded in the truth I can always start from a common ground, for example that 2=1+1 and then use objective logical steps to unequivocally dominate the conversation since my argument is more grounded in truth. But even if we both understand that 1+1=2 it is meaningless if I'm not articulate enough to explain how this logically means that 2+2=4. Without articulation you cant maneuver logical fallacies and tricks used by people who have arguments that aren't tied to truth but are just overbearing and more manipulative so even if your argument is true you still lose the verbal dominance battle. Obviously this is just a simple case but the concept stands for more complicated scenarios. It takes practice and humility to always stay grounded in truth. You even have to accept that many of the times, the way you wish things were just aren't so because once you tie yourself to an incorrect argument based on your feelings someone else more grounded in reality will be able to dominate you through logical deduction and articulation, but once you can do that it becomes easier to be verbally dominant in arguments because you can tap into reality by starting from basic principles and rationally showing that your argument is the only scenario or the most likely scenario given all alternative options.

Thank you. People who are confident, agreeable, hard working, energetic, kind, empathic, non dogmatic and high in genuine self esteem inspire others and cause others to want to emulate them. To decide that dominance is bad and prestige is good, that's a bit too simplistic.

Totally agree with this. Ive known guys that live in the gym and want to act like they're tough yet some C grade woman at home bosses them around and if she initiates a breakup, they beg and plead. The gym is often an external overcompensation for internal weakness of some kind. Charles Manson shows dominance is psychological. He was 5'2", skinny, didn't go to the gym for " gainz" yet had plenty of women and much bigger men doing his bidding. Jim Jones another example of psychological dominance. Women though, if also dominant will tend to avoid such a man. Her gaslighting tactics and guilt trips won't work on him, which work on most men. So she'll seek prey in greener pastures so to speak. And with such women I have learned, that when arguing with them the best course to take isn't to use logic, reason, or defend yourself. These will all be ignored by the dominant woman and manipulated into gaslighting. The best course is to insult her ego in some way, bruise her pride, cleverly if possible. She'll quit speaking, but she'll respect you, albeit from afar.

Previously, I was quite average, but now I've significantly increased my muscle mass. With this change, I've noticed a shift in how people interact with me. In shared spaces, they're more inclined to make space for me and step aside. Additionally, people tend to be friendlier and initiate more random conversations. It's interesting how having muscle affects others' subconscious perceptions. While psychological factors play a significant role in dominance, the sight of well-developed muscles often triggers the initial subconscious recognition of dominance in others' minds.

my mind is BLOWN. and this is occurring on almost every video of yours man. thank you

I agree. To be challenging . Not to supplicate or belief anything . To have the confidence of what you belief in .

Agreed. I need to remember this more often. Sometimes I will remember it but kinda discard it as to try and stay humble

Dominance îs physical in a sence that it comes out of your posture. YOU can get confident if you learn to align your body. A Coward or low status man is seen through body language. YOU can be confident through your achivements. But it may be a sort of pshycological compensation. In a situation where is a posibility of physical violence only psycological dominance is not enouph

Just because women are on average better than men when it comes to verbal communication doesn't mean they win the verbal sprawl, women tend to communicate their emotions and feelings more while men tend to bluntly express logic and reality to prove points.

Dominant men don't verbally spar with their girlfriends. If she's being masculine/annoying like that cut her off. If some time apart doesn't check her behavior break off again for longer.

I had a toy poodle who was very dominant. He used to dominate dogs of all sizes and was not aggressive. Not by humping or aggression but more in a sense of holding his ground and not letting the other dog sniff his butt before he’s sniffed theirs. He used to trot up to any type of dog and I had to be careful with him because he had zero awareness of his size 😂

This is a very simplistic argument. Non verbal body language is much more intimidating then what someone say. Someone can ramble but looking them the right way in the eye will leave a very primal and strong message.

psychological framing is very important. I have to say out of personal experience though. At least with everyday interactions with men. muscle is a huge factor. there is a certain unwritten and unpublished dominance hierarchy you ascend when you are muscular. no one talks abut it but it somehow is accepted and acted upon by everyone. i went from 132 to 185 lbs lean and boy is there a difference in daily interactions. of course internal confidence built over the years of work and dedication definately aid aswell, but everyone who gained a lot of muscle over a short span can tell you the night and day difference!

Dominance is psychological, physical, emotional, social and any other domain because Dominance is NOT SELECTIVE, but there is ALWAYS some WEAK man perpetrating a FRAUD.

To add, I have read studies that indicate that warriors and aggressive men are seen by women as more attractive, there was also another aspect that heavily based on the physicality aspect of dominance. As far as that goes, it seems that physical aggression has something to do with male attractiveness, but your video also makes sense...

Life changing spar verbally is so needed

I agree and disagree with you at the same time . They might try to manipulate you with emotions. But when you give them silence or keep making logical points they get pissed off and try to shame you.

The reason why women often come out on top in an argument, is that "reason" is rarely entertained as a strategy. In the end, men realize that using reason won't change the woman's mind, and come to the conclusion that arguing with a woman just isn't worth their time.

You're damn right! I'm not tall, I don't have strong muscles, I'm vital, educated and you really need to count on the strongest factor of strength - a strong psyche! Also use it sensibly, because the goal is not to abuse and commit bad karma - the boomerang effect. You need to be wise enough and use it exclusively for the selection of the right partner ... for a while while the connection works, after that, reset, and keep going ... God bless you! All the best. Belgrade, Serbia here... 🙏👍

weirdly enough, if men are loosing the verbal bloodbath and they resolve to physical dominance as a backup, it is a sign of weakness and is an indirect way of acknowledging that the emotional battle has been lost and they have no more cards to play

Hey Doc, masculine containment. This really made sense to me after countless years of failing with women. I would do a video on this.

Great review. I gotta add that women are more immediately open and attracted to larger guys. As a thin guy back in the courting days I often never got to second base of demonstrating intellectual/psycological appreciation. Look at average couples and the woman is generally always with a big guy even if it’s just plain fat - it gives them a sense of protection. ((Margret Thatcher married Dennis Thatcher, hmmm? he’s physically weaker and clearly politically weaker: strange relationship)) On another note, women in later life, having likely failed at relationships, are more readily open to entertain a psychologically dominant male. In today’s world of brain value and technology men with intellectual skills are a little more of interest than the old evolutionary attraction of big = protection and provisions. But shedding the social, the media and advertising roll plays, the whole psychological culture of western civilization women are still turned on and attracted to big guys (more so, big guys who those women can psychologically and emotionally hen peck to death)

please expand more on the topic you're talking about. It would be great to have +10 minutes from you.

I was dating a woman. One time on her WhatsApp profile she uploaded pic from night club with another female friend. I asked, when did she go and why didn't she tell me. As I remember one night her phone was off and she claimed she fell asleep. She told me not to worry pic is from 3 years ago before we met. I said stop lying u have a watch on your wrist u bought from Argos two months ago!!! Automatically i was labeled abusive, controlling, insecure etc. Society trained men for the past 40yrs to never challenge a woman, take abuse with smile on your face and basically be castrated robo-droid who works,bend knee, gives woman all his resources and never asks questions. If you have some self respect and values as a man u are going to be scrutinized. Thank goodness am not dealing with this crap anymore. Have hobbies, motorcycles,cars,drones, travel the world. Women for recreational use only. Stay safe gents 🚨

Nice sweater dr taliban 😊

This is right. Napoleon was a very short, bald and less than attractive person. And he was one of the most dominant man in history. But there is still a twist to it. He was still betrayed by his own wive, because she sought for a more physically dominant male.

Its clearly both though. Physical dominance gives men an edge psychologically due to their body language. But if some men have intelligence and other types of status than this also confers a psychological advantage.

I think you reduce it down to "verbal", I wouldn't. I think it's more "mental/emotional". And I do agree that men are usually more focused on body strength domination and women on mental/emotional, and I think that this "tug of war" dynamic, is key to the evolution of humans, to a more well rounded and whole being, that is strong in both areas.

so true! women on average are more adept at emotional and psychological interactions than the average man and it stands to reason as women can't compete in the physical dominate against a man so instead they must become masters/ mistresses of emotional and psychological "influence"/ and a toxic woman uses emotional and psychological manipulation whereas a toxic man will use overt aggression and violent intimidating behaviour a balanced healthy man exudes confidence strength security and steadfastness a healthy woman exudes a loving empathic elegance and finesse

'dominance' is not an effective strategy in the long term - imagine if you had the resources to kill anyone you wanted to and no-one could call you out on it; you could kill anyone who disagreed with you - but it wouldn't mean you were right. If everyone but you kept saying the Earth was flat, even to the point of making you fear for your life, they still wouldn't be right. The better strategy is maintaining strong and healthy boundaries and developing critical thinking skills.

True, but you gotta be able to back it up physically because eventually someone will call your bluff

Very true, a few friends of mine that were in prison told me the shot callers in prison weren’t the big buff inmates it was usually a little 5’5 quite guy with glasses.

I read a book called _The Art Of Psychological Warfare_ Highly recommend.

My stoic karelian bear dog twice almost killed a annoying lapdog that was walking free, had too big ego and tried to dominate. So I strongly think that if you can't back up your attitude dont push it. Also my ex had a super f*cking annoying little sister with holier than thou attitude and loud mouth. On divorce day when I had no reason to to act nice I told her to 'shut the f*ck up 'cause literally no one asked you a god damn thing'.... not a damn beep from her after that and I was probably the first guys ever to tell her to shut it. So try to dominate only if you can back it up 'cause sometimes you might get put into your place by bigger person that you took for a softie. Oh yeah Karielian bear dog are super friendly and happy but they are used in big game hunting. On the point men v women in verbal fight... women have the lawful victim status on their side so women can have the last laugh slinging accusations of what ever and they stick enough to destroy the man.

It’s not the dog in fight, it’s the fight in the dog.

Me ex once said that she hated to argue with me because she could never win. She would make an accusation, and then I would deconstruct it by asking her questions. She would quickly realized that she didn't have the facts to back up the emotional rant! Now when I was in the wrong, I would admit it and move on, but she usually wanted to vent for another 20 minutes. A lot of times I would leave and tell that we'll discuss this once she's ready to act rationally. Men, if your woman acts like a spoiled two year old, then let her know that's not acceptable behavior. They either learn or end up alone with their cats and boxed wine!

Weirdly people sometimes tell me they are scared of me like I will smash them and most of the times I am thinking about that song stuck in my head, I get absolutely baffled. Yeah I am a guy pretty physically strong and good at arguments, but sometimes it surprises why people are so intimidated of me IRL even though I am chill and got no criminal records and even I don't do drugs. Seems definitely that dominance is psychological.

I never strived to be dominant in my relationship with my wife. I just want things to be fair, and over the years we have worked out a way to make joint decisions that seem to be reasonably fair to both of us. Part of it is we learned to make decisions jointly; also we learned in which situations one of us have particularly strong preferences and the other doesn't - so that the decision can be mostly deferred to the one with the strong preference. I did have to fight for this for a period of time in the early years of the marriage. For example, we both like to go out to eat, but our preferences aren't always the same. At first, she almost always insisted that we go to a restaurant of her choice; eventually I got fed up with that, and started pointing out that it's not fair that I never get to choose. I never had to make any elaborate arguments. I simply insisted, that since she chose the restaurant the last time, it is my turn to choose one this time, and if she doesn't want to go along with my choice, we'll just stay home. We actually stayed home a few times, until she realized I was serious about this. And she couldn't really argue why it would be fair for her to choose more often than for me, since I also have my preferences, etc. So, soon enough we worked out this issue, as well as many others. I also don't agree that in most relationships the woman is more dominant than the man. It isn't the case in our relationship; but also I haven't observed this in other relationships among my friends. But, most of my friends and their wives are immigrants from Eastern Europe or Russia - maybe that makes a difference. Perhaps for most Western families it's different, and perhaps that's why I never succeeded in dating an American woman - they intuitively felt that I couldn't be dominated the way they all expected me.. ? I don't know.

Your statement about the woman being more dominant than the man in relationships seems to apply only to the western world. In Africa this is not the case at all. The man is usually more dominant by a huge margin. However this dominance is flipped when the arena is child nursing and home making

It makes sense that women dominant verbal arguments with men. Physical strength helps with intimidation which is not something men want to do with women. A better way would be to take classes that help men speak more clearly and with more authority.

One of the greatest powers, if not THE greatest, a person can have is the ability to influence people's emotions. And by the same principle, once you learn how to limit the power other people have on your emotions, you become basicslly invincible.

People who don't understand what force or will is to value are always worried about who will benefit, then they feel a lack of dominance which they struggle to get back from a world that never caused the issue to begin with

"Being able to spar verbally" would be a good idea for a topic on a video. Let's face it you said yourself men are at a disadvantage against women, they make demands and we are left with give in or else type of consequence.

Mind over matter I thing your absolutely right buddy

This is why Patrice O'Neal used to say "you can *talk* you way into pretty much any woman's pants"... and this has been my lived experience, too. Anytime I'm able to avoid becoming defensive and turn any woman's teasing or negativity around on her, she likes it. They seemed to enjoy being beaten at their own game, as I guess it made me come off more competent like "he gets it". Same reason my short buddy with a beer gut and a missing tooth still never hurts for attention with women... he just always wins the games of verbal judo.

The fact you said “only a beta wouldn’t follow through” was hilarious and you got a follow

Makes sense to first dominate the psychological, then the physical will follow. If verbal/communication skills don't come naturally to most men then working to improve them would seem to me a great way to become even more attractive in general, not only to potential mates.

Thats why controlling the frame is so important

Emotional navigation: diving into refund details and anticipated actions

Martial arts is a great way to achieve it. You have to be able to back up what you say. That doesn't mean to be violent its just that there are real consequences for actions taken against you. You dont need to act tough when you are actually capable of that

„It would be an emotional bloodbath“ No, it not would, it *is* . Millions of times every day.

Physical dominance will complement psychological dominance, a healthy body will support in the health of the mind.

It's funny to watch a little Chihuahua have a big German Shepard on his back peeing on himself. Good analogy!

Basically, ironically, you just have to learn how and _when_ to, walk away. Leverage is key. Not how you _feel._ So it still requires a sense of _action_ and the real options you have at your disposal, which also means ending up with nothing, in the short term anyway. Long term, you always win as a man IF you take the right _action_ and walk away at the right times, and of course, walk up to more women and lead them back to a private place. That's what gives you the dominant position. But it's that walking away from non compliant women, approaching more women, rinse wash and repeat until successful, that is the right, dominant, action to take _regardless of your negative feelings._

Humans aren’t dogs. Ever seen a little guy boss around a big guy? Maybe if the little guy had a lot of power, sure, but when they have an equal position?

And the reason I know you're wrong is because psychology is a product of the body just as much as the body is a product of psychology. Smiling will make you feel an echo of happiness just because you are smiling, and so by the same token dominant psychology will express itself in the body's motions. If the body can't move that way, then the body language won't be there, and so neither will the psychology. Just getting strong isn't enough if you aren't strong in a way that exposes the body language, and it should, but doesn't, go without saying that dominant body language isn't the only way to engage with people in the way you want. Shoot to be strong in the way that shows the body language you believe is valuable, which you can learn by observing how your role models move and optimizing for those motions. Understanding that communication is a physical act will ground you in reality.

From personal experience-he’s right, and wrong. Being big made me dominant, until it didn’t. As the overall status of the hierarchy increased, it was when I didn’t increase my value within that hierarchy that I lost “dominance”. I’ve noticed just how much the physical effects the psychological however, when you increase value within that hierarchy’s structure, people defer accordingly. Physical effects psychology when needed work on the later is done.

This is the realest shit I’ve seen so far and personally a mistake that I have been making. Eg: Even though I am the strongest and physically capable guy in my class (M/17), I still get bossed around/ dominated psychologically by people in class that would not stand a chance in a purely physical realm.

Let’s be honest, if you’re a man of physical strength & have good ambitions & goals, no woman is going to even think about doing this to you bc of the risk it would take. Also if you’re this man and they do do this, I doubt you’d react emotionally. It’s a frame game, you stay in your frame because you’re heavily masculine.

Absolutely spot on.

XXs are not dominant in my world. If she’s not logical and gets passive aggressive you just walk away. Toddlers can stay toddlers

Getting strong will give you confidence which is the foundation of dominance

You can never let her think she’s better than you!! On average a lot of women think they’re better than men for some reason lol I have a feeling it’s because most men choose not to argue for peace of mind which fuels this even more

I've never met a married woman who was the dominant in the marriage and who was happy.

Excellent advice as always! Thanks!

the real question is, how to assert dominance with just the psychological side?

Interesting! I’ve been told that a man thinks in a straight line, forward. Very hip to problem-solving, excellent for defending family. Women, on the other hand, think in a 360 degree sphere, how each decision might impact every other person/situation in their life. So, it’s easier for women to ‘shift gears’ in their thinking process, while men are revved up full-speed forward! Easy to lose each other, even if we’re trying to head in the same direction… 🚙🚗

A persons physical appearance is what first attracts people, its the persons ability to phycology master the relationship

03:15 My guess is that this is because men are more emotionally invested in women than vice versa, I rarely see women win arguments with men that they aren't dating / in a relationship with, I'd describe most women's argumentation style as playing chess with pigeons, the moment they see themselves lose they throw the board away and make a fuss, this is what constitutes "winning" for them. In relationships men always give in because women have something men want but rarely vice versa.

So true. Great video.

Actually liking this video would open up my feed to allowing other "Beta" men video to get recommended to me❤

"The strong rule the weak; but the wise rule the strong"

Your videos are awesome.

"they will never act out to an equal or higher." "Fear, [though] hatred [for it] but have comfort in it."

Women understand frame control on an intuitive level. Doc, can you do a video on frame control or point to good resources on the topic? Thanks.

Agree to some extent. It is still important to be strong and healthy from a physical standpoint . You will be at your best with both a strong body and mind. Psychological strength does make a difference . Using movie villains and some comic characters for example. Verbal kent in the usual suspects, psychologically manipulated every character in the movie and in the end completely outsmarted the police department and detective using one of the 48 laws of power pretending to be weak and incapable while waiting for his oppurtunity to claim victory. Another example is lex luthor. As godlike physically as superman is, luthor has nearly destroyed him time and again with his intellect. Another is raymond " red " reddington from the blacklist. One of the FBI's most wanted he constantly uses psychological tactics to gain the upper hand and using the 48 laws of power to achieve his goals being a feared criminal mastermind. He looks like an ordinary guy. The exception to this would be characters like batman, bane and in real life guys like alex hormozi, sylvester stallone with a near genius level IQ. The body does have it's limits though, we don't know what the limits are on the human mind as we only use 7 to 10 percent of our total brain capacity. The body always follows the mind . Develop both to peak capacity.

That argument woman would mop a floor with a guy in verbal argument is a bit silly tho considering females constantly seek validation thru the outside, and you can so easily make her cry by commenting her obvious insecurities in her appearance. Random female is protected by unspoken social contract - making girls (whether they are 5 or 55) cry is a big NONO, so vast majority of females never heard the truth about themselves. Arguing with a female is as easy ass arguing with a child. With the size - if you are 6'4 240lb she'll give you more respect of the bat rather than when you are her size (because the lizard brain would be scared that this ape twice her size might snap her neck if she says something wrong) and then it's up to you to either keep her in that state or "come out" as a little b!ch in a huge body.

Love u man❤
