      What does she say about it?

        It's about how the devouring-mother archetype kills masculinity in her sons, who then hesitate to act and remain childlike and unsexed. The type of figure she's talking about is like a proto-incel, though it's broader than that. You can just see a lot of resonance with the modern complaints about feminisation of culture

            The basic problem she talks about is that pueri tend to live in fantasy worlds and need to reconcile themselves with reality or else they'll "crash" and have a nervous breakdown of some sort. Whimsical inclinations need to be tempered with actual work.

            >everyone talking about ~the longhouse~
            I'm not native English speaker. What do you mean by that?

            "The longhouse" is just a mem-phrase talking about social norms being mediated by mother figures.

            And the empirical evidence for this is...? Sounds like another woman trying to get men to do stupid shit that's against their interest by appealing to convention.

            Go look at reddit, or any collection of soibois, numales, incels, or any of the other meme buzzwords for "failure-to-launch" types. She wants you to get a job, start lifting weights, and ask girls out.

            >against their interest
            Wasting your life shitposting on reddit complaining about how women won't ask you out despite you being worthless isn't in your interest either, and yet here you are.

            I don't get how bourgeois academics who spent all their lives in cushy office jobs ruminating about myths, unconscious archetypes, and other fantastical notions have the gall to say shit like this. Working a soul-crushing job whilst at the same time having an unrequited interest in (actual, non-fanciful) philosophy and theory is exactly what caused my personal mental breakdown and withdrawal from the hellscape that is "actual work", where you get home in the evening too exhausted to cook dinner, let alone play around with whimsical fantasies like Oedipus.

            Work basically. The work is irrelevant doing the work is what's important. She also mentions that creative work tends to work well for most peers as it suits their need to drift into fantasy but also forces them to individuate through a craft.

            She's not wrong this book really resonated with me and after a life time of neeting I got a job and it helped with a lot of my procrastination and neurosis. Not even a good job just a shitty fast food job.

    I know plenty of manchildren wageslave drones. In fact, most of the office plankton today acts like this. This book’s only virtue is its recital of Freudian sexuality theory. All the Jungian bullshit interpretations stick out like a sore thumb.

    She essentially describes the transition between the aesthetic and ethical stage of life in Kierkegaard’s terms, but with moronic Jungian shit about mothers and mythology instead of the eloquent and witty references of Either/Or. Either/Or is fun to read while this felt like a chore in a bad way.

    This book pretty clearly has no weight to it but it works as a fun insult against people you dislike because she doesn't really say anything too meaningful in it therefore you can just put it on whoever you dislike. The latin title is clumsy and a laughable attempt at having authority. Read Either/Or instead

    The key to happiness is to simply stop pursuing any sort of outward compliments or “reward”. And I count fantasies as reward
