Arthur Schopenhauer was a german philosopher google the rest yourself. He is famous for one of his works The World as Will and Representation where he argues that we are all driven by a force called the will to life. "What people call love is a delusion created by the blind will to life, driving us to reproduce — not to be happy.”"
and that we fall in love with people for their traits (lookism)“We imagine we love individuals for their personality, but we are unconsciously attracted to them for the traits they can pass to our offspring.” “The truth is, the ultimate aim of every love story, no matter how poetic, is sexual union.”
In “On Women,” he claimed they were: "meant to obey".
At 43, he was sued by a woman for physically assaulting her after an argument. He was found guilty and had to pay her a pension. When she died decades later, he wrote “Obit anus, abit onus.” ("The old woman dies, the burden is gone.")
