Honed by academic rigor and intense debates, Jordan Peterson has shown to have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to human behavior. With a background in behavioral psychology, the 62-year-old has written quite a few critically acclaimed books and has given numerous lectures in his particular field. The Tate brothers, especially Andrew Tate, are people whom Peterson has studied thoroughly, as per his comments on Joe Rogan’s podcast.

“I’ve spent a lot of time, for example, trying to figure out why people are attracted to Andrew Tate. And I know why they’re attracted to Andrew Tate,” Jordan Peterson told Joe Rogan on the #2308 JRE episode. And who exactly are the top followers of ‘Top G’, according to Peterson? Well, for a large part, men who struggle in their romantic lives. “They’d rather be Andrew Tate than an incel, and they’re right.”

It’s all about the kind of life Andrew Tate leads as well. He seems healthy, is rich, and has considerable material belongings to show—who can forget his Bugatti? Jordan Peterson tells Joe Rogan that people find his way of life more attractive because Tate doesn’t have to care about his significant half, and can focus on himself. Also, he claims that most people who love Andrew Tate are depressed and have an anti-women stance because of rejection.

“It’s best to give the devil its due. Like, if you have to choose between being kind of flabby and unhealthy and resentful and in your basement, looking are p-rn-graphy, hating women because all of them reject you all the time, and you’re ineffectual and the future looks pretty damn gloomy,” Peterson further stated. “And then you see Andrew Tate, who’s tough and hyper-masculine in a manner that’s almost a parody, and wealthy, and famous, and apparently has women at his disposal, with a fair bit of stress on the idea of disposal. You’d think, ‘I’d much rather be him than me.'”

Jordan Peterson added, “That’s the incorporation from the shadow from the union perspective. It’s like, it’s right.” This prompted Joe Rogan, who seemed to agree, to chip in on why men turn against women, which is because of the same reason—one rejection. “The thing about men, also, if they get rejected a lot, they associate women with pain, and then they get angry at those women because those women cause them pain… That’s how you get a woman-hater,” he replied. Meanwhile, Andrew Tate once revealed his side of the story and why people tend to follow him. Here’s what he had to say.
