We’ve all heard the term but what makes a man a ‘high-value man’ -- especially in the current landscape of cancel culture, toxic masculinity and virtue signalling? As we’ve discovered, the answer isn’t as simple as it once was. Find all the traits of a modern high-value man and how to increase your value in the current cultural landscape:
What is a High-Value Man?
A high-value man is someone who embodies the essence of masculinity, constantly seeks self-improvement, and strives to leave a lasting legacy of greatness in the world. He embraces his natural role as a man, focusing on personal growth in mind, body, and spirit, and is committed to not only bettering himself but also making a positive impact on his tribe and community.
However, it's crucial to understand that being high-value doesn't start with being desirable to women; it starts with being effective and creating true value in the world, for both yourself and those around you.
Being high-value means embodying the mentality of constant personal growth and self-improvement. It's about striving to be better than the man you were yesterday. By doing so, you become an effective man who moves forward in life and finds success. This, in turn, makes you highly desirable to women

Being Viable in the Sexual Marketplace Value
The Sexual marketplace value refers to how appealing and desirable someone is as a sexual partner. In the context of embracing the high-value-man-mentality, sexual marketplace value is determined by how desirable and attractive a man is to the women he wishes to be with. Everyone has an idea of who they want to be with – an ideal partner for themselves – the high-value man is typically drawn to the high-value woman, and although not every woman you find yourself interested will want this type of relationship, it’s likely to be someone who is seeking the same value as you are.
Women are innately drawn to men who display high-value and traditionally masculine personality traits. This is because women have evolved to seek partners who can solve certain adaptive problems related to survival, not only for themselves but also for their children. Women value effectiveness, resource potential, and the willingness to share resources, as these traits increase their own odds of survival and the survival of their offspring. We know, this is written like it’s prehistoric dating times, but the core of what women are seeking in their partner hasn’t changed much – although the reasons/outcome has.
For a woman to really surrender to her feminine energy and grace, she needs to be able to relax out of a stressful state, creating a complementary opposition - this is the philosophy of yin and yang. A strong masculine energy allows her to do this. So although the reasons for women seeking a resourceful and strong partner have evolved, the desire for it is the same.
