I've listened to 12 Rules for Life and i don't get that from Peterson. He's focussed on monogamy but then he's a Christian and that's seemingly his jam. The book seems to offer some solutions to make men better versions of themselves, with the proviso that if they manage to do this, then they may find themselves being a good husband, father, provider etc.

I'm not sure it's about getting men laid. That's definitely the pre-eminent concern of people in some very toxic communities like the Pick Up Brigade, but I've said before that I'm uncomfortable with Peterson being lumped in with those on the basis that he a) can speak to men and b) is a conservative by nature.

I feel there's a sort of knee jerk reaction from the left that anything which doesn't conform to the branding, must be inherently anti-women. I (personally) think the very nature of marriage is anti-women, but that's why I'm not married. I think Peterson has a particular take on why monogamous religious marriage is the way forward - which I fundamentally disagree with on a personal level - but I also know it will work for some men and some women.

That said, I don't imbibe Peterson on a regular basis and he may have lurched into the Uber Christian right since I listened to 12 Rules for Life.
