Many of Red Hawk's assertions about men, women, and sex deserve rebuttal, particularly those that suggest sex is somehow a necessity of the individual man.
But he is right to point out the lack of accountability for women in society as a problem, and that not a trivial one. One technique used by the right that Red Hawk doesn't hone in on, at least not explicitly, is the (legitimate) assignment to men of greater responsibility for what ails our society, and then the ignoring of women's own responsibility for what ails us on the grounds that their responsibility is lesser. As if being lesser makes it automatically insignificant or even nothing at all. Men and women are guilty in tandem for our societal woes. Perhaps women wouldn't be in such a sorry state if it weren't for men's abdication of their God-given roles; but the reverse can just as well be said: men wouldn't be in such a sorry state if women hadn't abandoned so readily their God-given roles from which the average man obtains life-giving inspiration.
if men can get sex too easily, their primary motive for contributing to civilisation is removed. Why bother subjecting yourself to rigorous education and training for years to get a job that functions as a proxy to signal your ability to provide and therefore gain sexual access if you can already get sex without all that? Free love, baby.
The homemaker has the ultimate career. All other careers exist for one purpose only - and that is to support the ultimate career.

This is a great argument

Well said. I too was alerted by the phrase "level up."
