So I basically found out late in life that I am part genius part retard, something called Executive Function Disorder.
Basically, when tested as a child, I was in the 98th percentile for certain categories, but one category I was multiple standard deviations lower. I won't go into all the personal stuff, further testing, diagnoses etc. But I went my entire life thinking I was a charming slacker with a heart of gold, but it turned out I wasn't a slacker. Parents were lazy, so it was never followed up on as instructed by professionals, so I figured that I was just a smart badass slacker.
The thing is, my brain is constantly running, and it exhausts me, so theoretically, having a wife to make all the simple decisions for me, grants me a ton of relief because a normal person thinking like "what is for supper" doesn't exhaust them, but me when I think what is for supper, it becomes a branching 32 part series of questions.
The only reason I share this here, and I don't completely understand it because I am still in the process of resolving it myself, is that it explains the Axl/Beta thing. I came from a dysfunctional household growing up with no consistent parental involvement, and I basically need to find a Beta to manage me so that I can focus on high value tasks. Axl seems really smart, but also really dysfunctional at certain points in his life. I am in no way diagnosing the guy, or saying he has this, but it would make sense that Beta as his "wife" would grant him immense relief because for the first time in his life, he has someone to handle the small things.
Keep in mind, I am not like functionally retarded. I can do all normal things adults do. But it's like, sticking to a schedule is absolute torture. The only way I can stick to a schedule is if I am being managed or watched. But I can do extremely high level work if I just get started. The anecdote for it is something like Ferrari engine tied to a brick. Part of it is called acrimonious giftedness. As in, the person is very bad in some aspects of intelligence, but gifted or genius level in others.
This post is more about me, this is a safe space where I can share with the other 5 people who post here, but it wouldn't shock me if the Axl/Beta dynamic was something similar. If you're a normie, you can't look at it like "why would he want a mom/wife to handle things for him as a grown man", because while it's unlikely he has this exact same thing, if he did he would get immense relief from having an entourage he trusts handle all the small things more so than a "normie" would.
It also explains the marketing plan stuff, aka overthinking. I basically can't buy a shirt without spending an hour optimizing it and making shirt it's the absolute best shirt and right deal. That's a simple analogy. Now, imagine how bad that is when I have to make crucial career or life decisions instead of it just being a shirt.
I'm just trying to say Axl probably doesn't have this, but I now get the Brazilian housekeeper wife thing after realizing this about myself. A lot of the patterns are similar. Even if he doesn't have this, it's given me more understanding about his Beta wife+mom relationship and the overall value proposition.
