Violent
attacks are what happens when men do not have partners, Mr. Peterson
says, and society needs to work to make sure those men are married.
“He
was angry at God because women were rejecting him,” Mr. Peterson says
of the Toronto killer. “The cure for that is enforced monogamy. That’s
actually why monogamy emerges.”
Mr.
Peterson does not pause when he says this. Enforced monogamy is, to him,
simply a rational solution. Otherwise women will all only go for the
most high-status men, he explains, and that couldn’t make either gender
happy in the end.
“Half the men fail,” he says, meaning that they don’t procreate. “And no one cares about the men who fail.”
I laugh, because it is absurd.
“You’re laughing about them,” he says, giving me a disappointed look. “That’s because you’re female.”
But
aside from interventions that would redistribute sex, Mr. Peterson is
staunchly against what he calls “equality of outcomes,” or efforts to
equalize society. He usually calls them pathological or evil.
He
agrees that this is inconsistent. But preventing hordes of single men
from violence, he believes, is necessary for the stability of society.
Enforced monogamy helps neutralize that.
