Eurydice - How to make marriage work
This is the first part of our conversation. The full episode and the complete archive of Subversive episodes, including exclusive episodes and my writing, are available on Substack. You can also subscribe to the podcast sans writing on Patreon for a bit less. This is how the show is financed and grows, so I appreciate every contribution! Please subscribe at: https://www.alexkaschuta.com/ https://www.patreon.com/aksubversive Our conversation explores the challenges and complexities of modern relationships and marriages, the loss of unified narratives, the saturation of relationship advice, the importance of personal responsibility, voicing needs, and avoiding resentment in relationships. The conversation also delves into the impact of legal systems on relationships and the role of pronatalism in encouraging marriage and having children. We also address the gender dynamics and expectations in relationships, the need for strong individuals who can advocate for themselves while respecting their partner's desires, the dynamics of sex, relationships, and marriage from a gendered perspective, the challenges faced by men in forming real connections and attracting the kind of women they desire, the concept of hypergamy and how it is often misunderstood and much more.
