What is Reddit's opinion of Communication Mosaics: An Introduction to the Field of Communication?

So glad I grew up with sisters who that I began identifying this exact behavior.

When I concretely and completely realized the degree to which women manipulate men through these social pressure games and bold faced lies was while taking a communications course my first semester of college.

I remember reading something about manipulation tactics (actually, I think it was this book!). One of them mentioned something where one person mentioned A. they need to do something pressing. Yet, B. they also had this other thing that needed to get done immediately. However, Hello C. You're nearby. Here, you take care of B, so I can go do A!

Why was this so familiar to me? I remembered a few months later, when interacting with a sister, and she pulled this exact maneuver on me.

Then it clicked! She had done this before, in fact! I just hadn't realized the degree to which she was willing to lie!! As an honest person, I didn't realize she would simply bold-face lie to me, just so she can sit on her lazy ass in front of the TV!

It was then that I was like "What are you talking about? B and A are both your obligations, not mine. And "A" is not a time sensitive issue (going to walmart to buy something, for example). Although "B" is time sensitive (walking her dog, so it doesnt shit inside), you can easily take care of both of them. you're just lazy and full of shit."

(Women use this tactic all the time to get men to do things for them. They claim they need something done. If the man doesn't do it, they'll even claim that they need the man's help because they have something more pressing to attend to. Which "it" turns out to be nothing, made-up, or not pressing at all.)

It was then that I realized that women truly are mostly lazy. They are lazy, unskilled, manipulative, and amoral. They are willing to lie to the people around them they supposedly care about, so that those people will do things for them. (And higher frequency of average intelligence, but that's beyond the point)

After reading about this and others, it was very fascinating to watch women, including my sisters, in social situations, manipulaying and lying to people.

It taught me all I needed to know about machiavellianism and deception. As a result, I am excellent at manipulating people myself, however I consider it immoral to be dishonest, and additionally, I don't want my self-conception or reputation to be influenced by or built on my own dishonesty...

For example, I see what happens to women who begin lying a lot-- lying becomes second nature. People around them pick up on it and realize they're untrustworthy and sociopathic. As a result, those women are unable to sustain relationships, and those that they do sustain are fraught by altercations.
