5	“Markets can remain irrational longer than they can remain solvent.” Why the “Misandry Bubble” may have already burst a decade ago It makes me irate when teachers tell parents that their kid has ADD/ADHD. They have no training in psychiatry/medicine, and their diagnoses should not be taken seriously. They probably cannot name specific symptoms of the disorder (beyond maybe 1 or 2). They have a bias to notice deviant behavior and a motivation to get it to stop. They probably can't tell the difference between sub-threshold symptoms and ones that are actually a problem. It's inappropriate to even mention it. A false positive c…	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/13 02:22 PM
2	Good example of the Mental State of Gen Y Yeah, it looks like we're saying the same thing; that isn't too surprising considering my background is also in Psych (Cognitive Neuroscience). Using what people say as an indication of how they think is definitely a valuable tool.	/r/TheRedPill	19/09/13 02:38 AM
2	Good example of the Mental State of Gen Y I'm interested, what do you see it to be? I kind of like the advice that if you stop looking at what other people would make you believe they got, it's quite easier to be content about yourself. For me, it was that we need to raise future generations with realistic expectations. I like your take on it too. This saying is vague as can be. Some stuff is practically stable over time - the laws of physics, the biology of emotions and decisions, the way to manipulate someone (as long as they're not c…	/r/TheRedPill	19/09/13 12:28 AM
3	Good example of the Mental State of Gen Y What is the point of learning about the current state of affairs when you don't even care about how things got to be that way? How do you expect to make predictions about the future if you don't have the slightest idea about what happened in the past? Yeah, the future isn't a perfect indicator of the past, but there are certainly lessons we can learn from it. You have the exact same perspective as the person who wrote this article. They point out the problems with Gen Y (current state of affairs…	/r/TheRedPill	18/09/13 11:51 PM
10	Good example of the Mental State of Gen Y Amen. Every article I read about Gen Y talks about how fucked up we are without even considering why we ended up this way. For a solid 2 decades, I was told that I had to do well in high school, get in to a good college, do well in college, and enjoy all of the career options I had at that point. I had loads of teachers telling me how unique and talented I was, and every adult that ever gave me advice told me to do the exact same thing. It wasn't until a year before I graduated directly in to a …	/r/TheRedPill	18/09/13 11:43 PM
1	This simple trait correlates with masculinity, in both men and women. Interesting read, thanks for posting this. I think I remember reading that digit ratio is influenced by prenatal exposure to testosterone, which is a proposed mechanism for all of those correlates you listed.	/r/TheRedPill	18/09/13 11:26 PM
2	Blue Pill indoctrination on the first day of graduate school That does help man, thank you. I'm working on rehabbing my knee right now so I can lift without pain. In a few weeks, I should be ready to lift again (god I miss it).	/r/TheRedPill	15/08/13 04:13 PM
7	Blue Pill indoctrination on the first day of graduate school I still remember my blue pill indoctrination on the first day of grad school. All of the graduate students in my department had to sit through about 3 hours of orientation. One of the final speakers presented a special "women in science" program, where they talked about the problems that women face in graduate school, and discussed the resources and groups available exclusively for women. The kicker? I was one of two guys in the 40+ person orientation. The rest were women. The other guy burned o…	/r/TheRedPill	15/08/13 06:12 AM
