I decided to make an entirely new post instead of responding to various people in the Female Social Matrix comment section because this is something that everyone needs to read. (I didn’t anticipate being away all day yesterday so I will be commenting in that post later today.)

First some general thoughts:

  • If you are responding to a post, you need to have read the post in its entirety. Everyone who submits to this subreddit is taking time out of their life to share something and engage in a discussion with the community. If you don’t have enough time or energy to finish a post then save it for later and come back to it.

  • Asking for further information is fine but don’t expect other users to write up an annotated bibliography for you. Everyone here is an adult and you all should be capable of using google and finding resources on your own.

  • Rudeness and disrespect are not tolerated on this subreddit, especially towards endorsed contributors and moderators. This rule can be found on the sidebar and the wiki has more information if it somehow isn’t clear.

Now, the most important thing that everyone needs to understand:

AWALT! Including, and especially RPWs.

Women here love talking about all the ways that others are living life incorrectly, misinformed, stupid, mean, ugly, etc. and they embrace AWALT when it applies to feminists, sluts, fat people, and others. But we have had multiple threads on /r/RedPillWives where everyone in the comment section rejects a submission because it examines an uncomfortable truth that applies to them/hits too close to home.

Sure, people can be critical of themselves when they talk about ways to improve as a wife/girlfriend. Ultimately, those posts cast whoever is speaking in a positive light because while they are flawed, they know they are flawed, and they are doing something about it. Even if it is genuine it is still virtue signaling.

This subreddit is not an echo chamber and it is not a place where we can just pat ourselves on the back for being RP. There is a lot wrong in the west today, and we absolutely need to continue our discussions on the sexual market place and relationship dynamics. But we cannot limit this discussion to things that make us feel good.

There are 50000 other sites where you can read about meal planning, taking baths, date ideas, or shopping. Yes there is a place for all of that on RPW, but they are not the purpose of this subreddit.

Some things to keep in mind moving forward:

  • This is not a debate sub. Many of us also post in /r/purplepilldebate, it is a great space filled with men and women of all pill affiliations.

  • Evaluate your comments before you submit them. Be as objective as possible. Look out for potential sources of confusion, and make sure you are conversing in a tone appropriate for the interaction.

  • If you speak to someone with a challenging or harsh tone and they respond strongly, don’t put on an innocent victim act and ask why they are being mean to you. I’ve seen this happen enough times that I just had to say something, it’s annoying.

  • The content posted on this subreddit is meant for the subscribers on this subreddit. Don't feel any need to justify anything to hypothetical non RPWs who may be reading. And don't expect others to tailor their posts or comments so that they address anyone other than the target audience of this subreddit.

Okay that’s it from me! Post any questions or thoughts in the comment section below.

Hope you all are having a great weekend <3
