Lucas understands that to find a bae willing to breed with him, he must signal that he is a suitable mate, until someone acceptable recognizes that he is and gratefully accepts his load of telomeres. Lucas has some notion of how other, sexually successful men go about this, even if its twisted: credit cards, flatbill hats, using the word “nigger,” acting black, cultural appropriation, and so forth.
In other words, they display things he does not have, and do things he does not like.
He is right, to the extent that he has no of the qualities, nor trappings, of a man that interests women.
If Lucas wants to mate so badly, how does he go about it? Not in the conventional way that men try to. He tries to pay women to go out to dinner with them. He invites an entire generation of women out to dinner at Red Robin. He leaves food around Spokane with deranged notes advertising the quality of his dna. He tries to "educate" the public about the virtues of old man jizz and "age gap relationships." Wtf is he doing?
While all men in the courtship game seek to set themselves apart from their sexual rivals, there is a baseline for participation. Potential fathers must generally meet basic standards of readiness or ability to provide. Many men who are consciously interested in starting a family will prepare for it financially, professionally or otherwise. A fellow with a home, a bank account, and some stability may naturally signal they would make a decent father. He may be taken seriously as a mate. Many men who have no interest in being a father become one any way in their pursuit of poonaner, and some even rise to the occasion.
Lucas stands out among other men in the courtship game by virtue of his lack of readiness or ability to provide. But as we've observed he relies upon two things to distinguish himself in a positive way: food, and his magical sperm. Note that Lucas also tries to distinguish himself with his political opinions: he would like to be credited for being a good person and believing the right things. He is a socialist, and Gen Z likes socialism, therefore Gen Z should take him seriously as a sexual partner, because socialists don’t care about poverty. But food and jizz are Lucas’s sales pitch; his “beliefs” are more of a way of focusing his sales pitch on a particular demographic. Lucas doesn’t just want to feed and impregnate any female, but rather some imagined, socialist nymph that thinks Bernie is grand and doesn’t mind that Lucas is a hobo.
Food and jizz are what Lucas understands he has to offer, what he thinks will work, what is unique to him. This is baffling. Women don’t rely on men for food, though Lucas behaves as if they do, and seems to believe they do. Women also don’t seem to consciously think about the genetics of their potential offspring when choosing sexual partners, though Lucas encourages them to. Lucas assumes that women who engage in sexual activity consciously intend to have children and deliberate the fitness of their spawn. He must believe that reproductive fitness is something that women consciously evaluate in men, and something that social and financial success have no bearing on.
For example, in the video “One third of women date for free food” Lucas observes that ⅓ of women date for free food, and ⅔ do so because they want to have children some day. This “sounds kind of fair” to Lucas, who observes “there’s no other reason to date, is there?” Thus, according to Lucas, all women either date for food or for children.

It just so happens that Lucas offers women food, and the raw substance of children: hobo loads.
Lucas makes other assumptions, too. Despite his health problems and history of mental illness (both may be heritable) he thinks that his DNA is plenty good. Spectacular even. He often refers to how “tall” he is, and has compared himself to the Hulk before. He’d like women, and men, to see him as large and strong. Lucas also thinks, despite ample contrary evidence, that he is very handsome and unironically refers to himself as such. And his telomeres related delusions have convinced him that by virtue of his age, his DNA is even better. Does Lucas believe his telomere nonsense, or is it a cynical argument to get women to take his seed? As outlandish and ridiculous as it is, he seems earnest.
Lucas has some understanding of what women want, aside from food and good jizz for their eggs. It’s not unreasonable, either: security. In his 2010 personal reflection, in a moment of unusual lucidity, he wrote that he is uncomfortable around women because:
Lucas doesn’t know what “security” means to a smart pretty interesting girl, and admits that he isn’t going to find out. He can’t offer security, and he knows it: he is poor and dependent on handouts. His decision making ability is compromised, and he can be counted on to make a mess of things.
Food then, is partly a matter of providing security, in addition to being something that Lucas thinks women will go on dates for, and seek men to provide. Food is something that Lucas, as both a gluttonous fat ass and a poor person, is preoccupied with. But it’s all the security he can offer: he has an EBT card. He can get enough cash in hand to go to Red Robin or Churchill's. Lucas would like this to be evidence that he is ready to be a father. His children will not starve. There will be plenty of pep sticks for everyone.
But if Lucas doesn’t understand what “security” is to a “smart pretty interesting girl,” or how he can offer it, his own relationship to “security” is complicated. Beyond the social safety net that he relies upon, he has no security. He needs more than he can offer. He has a well established desire to be taken care of by a woman, like Suzanne, and his mommy before her. A woman to buy him things, like guitars and ice cream, and provide him with a home. He intuits that maybe women want to be taken care of, like he does. And he’s in no position to take care of anyone, beyond offering them the fruits of his EBT. Food, even free food, is security, and that gets girls.
In a sense, mating to Lucas provides him with security. If he impregnates a woman, who can support him and do what he says, he will have security: a roof, better access to empty calories.
He thinks that because of feminism and his own oedpial relationship with his mom, that his mate will take care of the family, and he will be a house husband, sort of like how he was with Suzzane: he cleaned, did chores, prepared meals. This brings us back to food again.
Does “security” have any bearing on Lucas’s old, magic sperm? It doesn’t really. Perhaps he’s offering genetic security. He often makes the claim that his mate won’t have to worry about health issues with their offspring. They won’t have marfan syndrome (a favorite of his to mention) or autism or schizophrenia. They’ll be super babies, their future successes ensured by their superior dna.
But I’ve come to think of it more as a matter of realizing he can’t provide security, a tacit admission that all he has is jizz and a big fat gut. In despair he realizes he has nothing meaningful to offer as a mate and father, and so he falls back on his telomeres fantasy.
Lucas also has extreme anxiety over impotence. It’s one of the chief reasons he won’t take meds for his mental health. He complained about being unable to bust loads because of medication, and wanted everyone to know that after discontinuing his medication, he was gushing awesome jizz. There is also the suspicion that Lucas experiences diabetic impotence, to say nothing of his age or his total lack of sexual success. His telomeres delusions about the virtues of his sperm may be a way to overcompensate for his primal lack of sexual fitness, and signal to smart pretty interesting girls that he is in fact a sexual creature to be taken seriously.
Not a fat creep that would like them to support him, and let him anally torture them.
