Briffault was wrong, his laws only apply in a domesticated social environment where men are prevented from using the trump card of force in a natural environment.
We
are in a domesticated social environment. We have law and order. People are so much as afraid as speaking their mind at their place of work because of the threat of termination and not being able sustain themselves.
But that's besides the point. I'm not speaking for Briffault, but I'm sure he already had your point in mind. He's speaking of female nature and evolutionary behavior (hypergamy), not of social structures put in place to allow them so exercise such options. (On that point, modern society allows and promotes female nature to flourish, while it simultaneously suppresses and punishes male nature.)

Of course, the success of men who use force to establish tribes and societies ultimately become their own undoing by establishing the domestication that ultimately selects against men like them.
The domestication you're speaking of was implemented by and for men to curb our violent tendencies, developed by evolution to help us survive and hunt, so that we can have order and civility. You cannot apply human conventions to evolutionary tendencies and expect to change the tendencies. At best, you can expect to keep them in check. Modern society is trying hard to do that (change evolutionary tendency) by feminizing society as much as possible. There are feminists, for example, who feel guilty for feeling attracted to dominant, aggressive, and "toxic" males, because their feminist upbringing has taught them to seek the opposite.
It only really started backfiring in the last 50 years or so when society started becoming more "progressive" and undid the hard work of thousands of years before at every level (institutional, legal, societal). Before then, female nature that had caused harm was punished alongside male nature that had caused harm. Today, society applauds women for doing things that would have resulted in them being destitute and likely ended up prostituting themselves several decades ago.

The only way women in primordial times could "choose" is by forcefully aborting themselves which came at the risk of putting their lives in danger.
They didn't do any choosing. They were fucked, whether they liked it or not, by the strongest alpha who killed off weaker males. This was what developed into the selective pressure to choose for the stereotypically chad men (tall, high test and muscle mass, defined bone structure), since being bigger and stronger meant etc. etc. Today, our environment changed, but selective pressures for women are practically non-existent, because the social structures are supporting their survival. Our brains are still running on the same OS from millions of years ago. Briffault is just reminding us that women are also running on Caveman OS.
as expected from a toilet. Notice how she tries to spin it like "teehee its time to heal teehee"
@AAAAAAAAAAAcel but dark triad is a meme right?
