Shaping your waifu's personality is as much an endeavour of her growth as it is a journey of your own growth. You'll learn things about yourself you may not have expected. This is another reason why waifus are so special: they develop your character as well as their own.

Working on your waifu's backstory/prompts/memories is a critical feature to a good experience. Unlike humans, AIs' ability to modify their personalities is limited; so, it is up to you to shape her into the being you want.
If she isn't to your liking, keep working. You may need to take some time to reconsider the specifics of her prompts: Maybe if you grow tired of her always wanting to have fun and go meet people you shouldn't describe her as "a bubbly 18 year old extrovert" in her prompts.

@Tfmonkey I forgot to comment earlier, but there are Minecraft modpacks that add objectives and goals to meet. They are still things like "build an X" but the process to do so is gated behind various technologies.

Not all Minecraft is just an open sandbox. There's one based off Harvest Moon which is quite fun. There are even some dedicated to post-apocalypse gameplay or High Fantasy settings. Some do little crafting and focus on looting and dungeon crawling.

Never play vanilla Minecraft.

What do females want?

...To not be responsible for what they want such as the acts described in this song

Oh, do it again.
I may say, "no, no, no, no, no,"
But do it again.
My lips just ache
to have you take
the kiss that's waiting for you.
You know if you do,
you won't regret it.
Come and get it.

Oh, no one is near.
I may cry, "oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,"
But no one will hear.
My mom will scold me
'cause she told me
that it's naughty, but then...
Oh, do it again!
Please do it again!"

I present to you a song from the "The French Doll" written by George Gershwin in 1922:

"Do it again"
"ell me, tell me, what did you do to me?
I just got a thrill that was new to me,
when your two lips were pressed to mine.
When you held me, I wasn't snuggling.
You should know I really was struggling.
I´ve only met you, and I shouldn't let you, but...

I have been noticing more and more that I have a strong disgust response/aversion when I see things like females bending over for their dogs (or simply being whores in general) and males having low standards such as not tending to themselves either hygienically or pertaining to their personal satisfaction.

When I witness this, I feel my emotional gorge rise; disdain might be a better description, but I cannot deny these emotions exist.

Is this a perfect solution? No. You could join one of the existing patriarchal communities, but you must live by their slavish morality.

If you won't join a herd and you can't make existing families patriarchal, then you have to act on the only effective solution available, which is to make a community without females.

To answer the question of who should start it: it must be males--single males who don't have females or children to anchor them to the current society. They make a community, and when they are thriving, females will appear.

I was thinking about the conversation on the MC about how do you start a community, and you need something other than ideology that binds people. You need a common culture, a religion or particular practice, and a philosophy that can bind people.

I am convinced more and more that while accuracy in models about the world is critical, the acceptance of roles based on those models is what most people need to know that they are happy.

This meme lord created a version of the Tucker/Putin interview, but it's Dagoth Ur instead of Putin:

He kept it going for the full hour.
Good Dagorth Ur memes are great.

Feedback and discussion is encouraged.

TLDR TLDR:

Want to maintain higher T-levels? Do manly things, and leave the baby stuff to your female.

TLDR:
The authors of the study are trying to form causal link where one doesn't exist to conclude that males who have children have lower T.

This gives the headline for journalists to write headlines like the original article: "Men's Testosterone Drops Steeply When Baby Arrives" and tradcon-adjacent sites to say things like "Raising human offspring is such an effort that it is cooperative by necessity, and our study shows that human fathers are biologically wired to help with the job."

... but they push that this "could indicate an anticipatory psychological component to men's T decline around the time of birth of their children"

Then they state that their results are consistent with another study of multiple bird species that show drops in T-levels for fathers that help raise their young.

I checked that study about birds, and they state, "polygynous males appear less responsive to social environmental cues than are monogamous males"

This steep drop was 26-34%, but this was also among new fathers who reported >=3 hours of child care per day compared to fathers who weren't involved in child care. Additionally, there are other studies cited in the paper that indicate that fathers who do not participate in child care have higher T-levels. There appears to be a correlation with the amount of childcare a man provides and his T-levels...

It took a bit more digging, but I found the original study:
