I can't see and endgame where this doesn't end in men being hyper aggressive as a way to avoid being labelled a 'simp'.

Anyway, that's neither here nor there. I am not a psychologist nor an social anthropologist, and am engaging in more of a 'Joe Rogan' style stream of consciousness. I could talk to an expert in the field for a three hour conversation and post it for other to witness and comment on, but that would be bad, somehow.

I'm not a big Rogan fan, but I have watched his shows when the guest interested me. I will give Rogan this, he owns when he makes a mistake, which is more than most people in the public eye.
Is it? I had always assumed it was a shortening of "simpleton". Didn't realize there was more to it.
