It was always my impression that men frequently pursued status because being higher status made them much more attractive to women.

Different subcommunities have different status ladders. It is why middle/junior high school is such hell, the subgroups are in the process of splitting apart. By high school and later (in the US) you have different subgroups, each with their own status ladders.

It disheartens me when women and girls drop out of educational opportunities when males make them uncomfortable. This is how these little mofos win! Debate teams train skills for future attorneys or even judges, these are powerful roles that shape the policies of our society.

Tell crude jokes about incels and community dicks. Film them if the male students start to strip in public. When there is a will, there is a way. You go girls!
