Different situations. To generalize crudely: guys want to make a buck and are more likely to fall for get-rich quick schemes, and chicks are looking for community and belonging and are more likely to join a cult. They both can be bargain hunters, but guys want what the other guys don’t have, and women want to pay less.

Be fair.
Sometimes a guy has to come up with a way to sell his boring and poorly plotted out science fiction novels.

Why not make them holy books?

I had a rival back in college whom I shall call ‘Mr. Jacked RAM 4 X 4” and we both went after the same chick. She eventually became Miss Tropicana runner up. Fast forward to the end, me and my 04’ Jeep Cherokee with the busted air con and heater won out. It NEVER was the car is my favorite life lesson to my nephews if you want the girl...

Men are generally not welcome in cults because cults are generally all about getting lots o' nookie for a very few guys.

The more guys the less nookie.

So guys are not targeted unless they have something that the cult wants as much as they want nookie. That thing is generally money or being so loony you will kill for the guy who is getting most of the nookie.

You notice how nearly all cults are started by men?

That is why.

This goes back to Genesis.
Women secretly desire to be ruled, despite any protestations to the contrary.

Ah yes. Mr. L. Ron Hubbard. Write a science fiction novel, turn it into a religion (Scientology), profit.

If a guy has to use some sort of jazzed up spiffy car to attract a woman, then that woman is shallow. Me? Show me a jet and I’ll wilt.

Feelings trump thoughts in most women.

And after all, cults are only one letter off.

I know guy who was invited to peoples temple when it was still in sf. He turned right around when he saw the fierce looking bodyguards at the temple entrance. Smart and not gullible. He told me if he hadn’t done that on that day, he might have died in Guyana 2 years later.

Plenty of dopey men found in cults too. Plenty of men out there carried away by emotion, by the way. But I think the women, who settle for what emotional support they can get cult, are likely women whose menfolk regard them as stupid animals driven by only by emotions and feelings, and not as fellow human beings, intelligent, insightful, practical, and rational, made in the image of God.
