Manuel's thirst for bedding women came as a result of misappropriated envy. When head Elder Oscar elevated Manuel to a God and gave him the opportunity to create his own nation, he felt lost. Manuel was never the scholarly type and he had no real vision for Másquema. He led one hundred men and one hundred women away from the compound, established the boundaries of the nation and let the people do what they pleased. Needless to say, the early origins of Másquema were less civilized than the rest of the world and Manuel had to work on creating a real cultural identity for his nation. This was the time in which Manuel became good friends with fellow Elder Yousef. The two had a good friendship but it was a strange friendship.
Manuel looked up to Yousef and admired his intelligence but he was also jealous of Yousef and felt inferior to him. Manuel could not understand how Yousef could manage two nations heavily divided on the basis of gender and physical appearance while still being held in high regard amongst the other Elders. Meanwhile, Manuel took a laissez-faire approach to his nation and he was often reprimanded for running a Godless nation with no moral constitution because his people chose not to marry or work outside of attaining food and shelter.
Manuel also envied Yousef's luck with the ladies. Yousef was never without a bevy of beautiful women by his side ready to satisfy his every request. At first it irritated Manuel to see these women blindly profess their love and devotion to Yousef but after talking to the women, Manuel quickly learned of the one trait they all shared. Each woman had alarmingly low self-esteem and all of them believed being in Yousef's presence was the highlight of their lives.
Manuel thought this way of thinking was wrong but instead of trying to encourage these women to stand up for themselves and speak out against Yousef's demeaning behavior, he used this loophole as the basis to use sexual warfare to achieve world domination and exact his revenge upon Yousef and the other Elders for questioning his competency in running a successful nation.
To Manuel it all made perfect sense. If he was viewed as a man with no morals then he was going to carry himself like one. If the other four Elders were going to treat women as if they were inferior to men and yielded no power then he was going to show them that even the most unassuming woman could be the catalyst for a powerful man's fall from grace.
