So why is that? Obviously these guys must find her attractive to have sex with her, and some of them hit her up each weekend sharing memes and stuff...why not just make it official? Wanting to fuck someone is not the same as liking them as a person. Men really want sex, and will hook up with almost any woman to get it. But men's standards for relationships are much higher than their standards for just sex. The average man will sleep with a fat woman, but will only actually commit to a woman who'…

Being perpetually online and isolated got dudes into this situation False. Everyone went to school and most work, the guys were out in the world, they just didn't know how to make anything happen out there. Not everyone's social skills improve in every way necessary just from being around people, some guys need extra information, and that's what the red pill offers.

Do you think the men magically become worth staying with in their 30s? Or do many women stop dating around at that point for some other reason? We as men do the same so why are they hoes? It’s called character development. This is hateful rhetoric that comes from red pill men who are often basement dwellers. Bizarre excerpt. You claim women shouldn't be judged because men do the same thing, but then acknowledge a group of men who very much aren't doing these things (basement dwellers). Labeling …

In a way though there's no socially acceptable solution, since the more online dating becomes the norm the less "appropriate" pursuing women in real life will be seen. That'll scare many decent guys who care about how people feel off from approaching in real life. But then they'll see themselves getting no matches online either. They'll wonder what the "right" way to find women is. And absent any morally proper solution, they'll either drop out or go RP, neither option being great for society at…

People are simply severely underrating how isolated the men complaining on the internet are. An ugly woman who gets no attention is usually avoiding the night life and dating apps. The complaining guy could visit these venues and still get the same 0 attention.

They also blame women for being in abusive relationships, single mums and also shame women who have high N counts. Surely all of these things would have been avoided by having higher standards? They have high standards for looks/money/status/charm, not for decent behavior. I think there is already an issue of women in their early 30s lowering their standards because they’re desperate to be married and have kids etc and down the line it leads to the huge divorce rate we have, resentment, cheating…

I get that it’s not an average man’s type, but why alienate a whole group of women? It harms the cause of those who seek women’s acceptance themselves, especially guys who are short like me. Sexuality is not reciprocal. It's zero-sum. While men's standards are decreasing, women's are increasing. The more proper weight men are willing to get with heavy women, the less heavy women feel the need to get with their equivalent heavy men.

Who are you asking to explain it? Neither pill denies that this happens. TRP simply says the men may be making questionable marital choices out of a desperation for companionship. Are promiscuous women really the "last choice" or people are plain wrong? How do you know whether these men had non-promiscuous women to choose from instead? For example you list a nerdy guy, and they don't tend to have a broad set of options.

That's only one of three problems. Modern women: Have higher standards than before, as you say. Do not fully elaborate on these standards. They typically only give advice on how to be a nice boyfriend guy, and not about how to be a sexy hookup guy. They often even shame guys who try to teach guys how to be the latter. This is problematic now because people settle down into marriages much later than in the past, and are expected to build experience playing the field beforehand. Themselves offer l…

Those men are performing for the wrong crowd, they should be spending time with similarly quiet and reflective women. Problem is the hyper men have no filter and are also going after those women, despite the personality mismatch. The calm men are potentially still overshadowed.

So basically what I'm trying to say is guys who are attracted to 18 year old's despite their own age are gross and women who fuck any guy are gross. This is just how it works. So men out there who openly admit they are attracted to 18 yr old girls like its a good thing but then condemn promiscuous girls need a reality check. So how to avoid high N women while strictly dating women around your own age? It gets increasingly difficult the older you get. A "reality check" is meaningless if it's not …

You don't have to worry about men being furious with you because you didn't want to be with them. No guarantee of that. Some men feel that because she is ugly that she should be honored that he wants (to sleep with) her, and that if she refuses him she must fit the "delusional modern woman" stereotype.

Statistics change over time, past generation figures won't be relevant to the next generation if the situation changes (and some suspect it to be worsening). Also, men don't want to be largely alone until 30 and then be stuck marrying the type of woman who ignored them and dated completely different partners in their 20s.

Wouldn’t they be the competition? Only for women both groups target. But successful alphas tend to stick to high tier women, since they have no real reason to go lower. It's lazy alphas who'll explictly go for "easy" women, like bored wives looking for an adventure. Yes I’m well aware losers exist, I just didn’t know they were envied by successful men. No matter how independently successful a guy may be he's liable to get frustrated when other types of men receive more female attention. It's the…

So a man’s only goal in life is to fuck? So a tall man could make a good living and a good happy life for himself but he figures why bother I get pussy. So is fucking is more important to attractive people than goals and accomplishments? Everyone is different, as said there are plenty of successful alphas, who had other passions and motivations in life that led them to excel. But for a subset of men, absolutely, the only (or at least main) goal in life is to get laid. These guys would just chill…

I don't get the, "these problems have always been around and nothing happened" logic when countless governments have been overthrown and had their countries dissolved over major social problems. This is a unique time where it probably won't happen due to pacifying technological advancements and modern militaries being too strong to challenge.

Why would an alpha only be sexually successful? Because he doesn't need to be anything else. A tall guy could make more money than his shorter equivalent if he wanted to, but he simply doesn't have to do so to get laid. The deadbeat alpha gets by fine. And the successful alpha guy is limited by the fact that hard work takes time and requires rest; there are simply less hours in the day for him to fool around with women than his deadbeat alpha equivalent. Additionally, he has a reputation to main…

I have no idea. I'm a political leftist but I'm also heavily aboard TRP. I don't see any way of cleaning it up in a way that feminist liberals would accept, at a certain point it becomes narrative over fact with them. Since they want to heavily discourage some of the behavior TRP encourages (for understandable logical reasons) they seem forced to deny or downplay the benefits of them. And I wouldn't even have a problem with this if there were no consequences, but the average man just isn't inher…

But if the guy isn't the type who's ever screwed over a woman himself then her caution is punishing him purely for the actions of others. It's still not something to expect a guy who's lived with moral virtue to put up with.

so it’s better for my time and theirs to only pick dudes who I know I’m attracted to from jump And this is what every man wants to be, the guy who a woman knows she's attracted to from jump. Being stuck fishing for "compatibility" all the time is so lame. A woman you had to convince to like you will never be as comforting as a woman who always did. If a guy's height is preventing him from finding the latter type of woman, it's as big of a problem as people say it is.

-“I’m short and women reject me all the time because of my height”. This means one of two things: either you’re just assuming a girl doesn’t like you because of your height or you’re very very short like 5’7 or below. 5'7 is literally only 2 inches below the average, if that's where "very very short" starts then nobody's exaggerating the height issue at all.

Thing is these cults in politics generally run heavily counter to scientific data and instead thrive off of base emotional biases. They're often forced to claim that the research is "fake news" comissioned by globalist oligarchs and the like. One can free themselves of their grip by simply educating themselves on reality.

This is about getting young men first to explain and combat red pill influence because it's growing at an alarming rate Why? The benefit (making men likelier to get laid) outweighs the drawback (men saying rude things about women).

In the face of that kind of inconsistency and mixed messages, you can't expect women to change their behavior, or care about men's opinions. That's the point, traditionalists miss the days when there was a consistent message that purity was good. Nowadays the message is mixed. Progressives want there to be a new consistent message that exploration is good, but since a big number of men don't get to explore anyway, that message will never universally stick. Guys with 0-3 bodies often don't want t…

Many men will take the scraps of sex they can get without being tied to one woman forever, regardless of how much of a hassle it is to find, and not fuss too much. The main casualties of hookup culture are: guys who don't get laid at all. At least in purity culture this was more respected. guys who don't get laid prior to the marriage cycle anyway. It's the same as before for them, but instead with older and harder to please women who didn't save themselves. men who want stable relationships in …

You also argued that men who aren't so interested in sex aren't so interested in relationships, suggesting it's sex that men want and relationships are just a byproduct. The OP simply says that the men less interested in sex are less likely to approach. That doesn't mean they don't want relationships. Plenty of women never approach men but still want relationships. When you value someone as a person and not purely for looks/sex then rejection hurts more, and thus these men are more passive than …

Gang members, rapists, thugs, and shooters are a minority of men. The entire prison population is a minority of men. If a guy is complaining about some annoying common behavior of women it's bizarre to respond with how a subset of men commit heinous crimes. The guy complaining is probably not one of those men. Statistically he's more likely to have been some form of victim of their actions.

Honestly if you're not a guy who values all the beautification stuff women do it really does feel like a lot of them aren't putting enough in. I'd explictly pursue women with no makeup, basic hairdos, generic fashion, no heels, etc. if it meant not having to do all the nauseating stuff in the OP.

The problem with this logic, which is usually used for women but in this case for Chad, is that it's still better than 1. nothing or 2. having to bust your ass for every scrap you get. They're still heavily enjoying the sex, hence why they keep having it. It doesn't have to be perfect sex.

A man often needs the red pill because he was bad with women to begin with, so obviously a bunch are virgins. That's silly to point out. But TRP provides basic social information the guy in the 1st point doesn't have (and isn't taught by politically correct blue pillers), tells the guy in the 3rd point when he needs to be more assertive, and gives the guy in the 5th point advice on how to improve his look. X virginal guy's prospects are better with TRP than without.

I see these stunning women in social media with unbelievable beauty, women with unbelievable bodies, women I consider charming, women that are what I believe are what men that could have anyone would like to date. They aren't. Many top relationship-minded men want humble, reserved women. Not the ones hyper focused on looks and showing off on the internet.

Basically, women have always had high standards, they were just forced to lower them in the past in order to survive. Women like status. Men as a whole had higher status in the past.

But there's still no evidence of a competent system. It's entirely possible that a woman can dodge "truly heinous" men through simple logical deduction. There's no scientific data suggesting that some "women's intuition" is required or effective. Additionally, behaving like a criminal has never decreased someone's chances of being arrested.

In most cases, it does not. Men largely care about looks and personality. We weren't conditioned to value female status, since for most of human history women rarely had any (beyond ties to powerful relatives). But there are exceptions.

Because getting with AFs can result in a long-term decrease of happiness, increase in demands, and resentment towards men. BB then has to put up with this despite causing none of the problems himself. And relationships work best when the partners share a similar sexual history.

And there are benefits like a lower divorce rate and higher likelihood of actually wanting kids. My mother stayed at home (until she couldn't, lol), we were just poor. That's life sometimes.

Women don't need to be open to anyone's advances. Just don't incoporate someone's looks into a judgment of their moral character. If you're the type of person who thinks "ugly people should know their place" why would anyone even care what you feel? That is not the stance a decent person takes. In that case, be creeped out.

Literally, just get a decent haircut. Have a pleasant smile. Wear a normal, plain shirt. Have a photo with normal lighting.

While the wife is attractive and responsible, in most of these sitcoms she rarely has sex with the husband, which would sour a man on his marriage regardless of other factors.

The question doesn't land because: The average modern woman has enough of her own money. Many strictly dutch women have already had to tell their men not to pull out the wallet. They know the guy's probably spoiled other women. They explictly don't want him doing so to them. A woman who does demand spoiling can simply wait for a man who's offering to come along. For example she's not settling for some broke guy to begin with, so there'd never be a moment where she finds out he used to be rich an…

If you can't flirt, because you are unable to read social cues, don't flirt But straight men aren't really given an alternative method to find partners. Dating apps would be one, but unfortunately they don't work for most straight men. Likewise having a woman approach you is a rarity. And the era of arranged marriage is largely over. In the absence of an alternative, you just can't realistically expect most men to follow that advice.

So men who are still virgins have the best conditions for future marital happiness and stability if they eventually find a woman to marry right away (ideally before first intercourse). It takes two to tango though, if these chaste men aren't finding chaste women then the benefits evaporate. Marriages in which the woman's body count outnumbers the man's often end in divorce.

The actual answer is to just be consistent. If you make every man you're with wait then you'll screen out the ones who just want sex. If you move fast with every man you're with then you'll eventually find one who's grateful you didn't play games. Either way nobody can get mad because treatment was equal. What men primarly complain about is getting the short end of the stick, that being a woman who was lewd with other men choosing to be chaste with him. This is the opppsite gender equivalent of …

The whole "more men will be alone!!!" take is silly. The red pill isn't the cause of that. Most of the men turning to TRP already weren't getting very far with women. So at worst they continue doing badly, and nothing changes, or they do better because TRP inspired them to be more assertive/flirtatious/masculine.

It's not a high bar to pass to be the "worst" it's ever been. People used to be expected to be married by their early 20s. On an individual basis, it's difficult to notice the dateless people, since they're probably less social than the ones getting dates. But they do show up on the social surveys and online forums.

If women need men, why are they more often reported as being happy when single? Because a higher percentage of single women are voluntarily single.

aka doesn't get why having a lot of sex as a man shows that you're desirable either genetically or socially while having a lot of sex as a woman indicates that you're easy for Chads to pump and dump) Thing is while a high n count increases a man's SMV, it still decreases his RMV.

The effectiveness of the red pill dropped over time. It was the secret sauce back when casual dating revolved around the night life at bars, clubs, and parties. Nowadays casual dating revolves around phone apps, and how "alpha" you can be is limited over text chat while your profile says 5'6; looks are a bigger part of the equation now.

It complicates assertiveness and escalation. Someone who isn't nice will just go for it when the urge arises. Someone who is might not, worrying about whether it's appropriate or the right time yet. Additionally the range of what you can say is limited by how nice how you are, since you're reluctant to risk offending others. A nice guy with sufficient social skill can do what's needed while mostly avoiding the rest, but a nice guy without those skills ends up just not taking enough action.

The problem is that even when you hand the power to average women, they incidentally hand the power back to the smaller subset of highly desirable men. So women still end up with the short end of the stick, just with less men benefitting at their expense. The excluded man is left utterly confused as to how women are still struggling with men while he himself has no power over them, and feels like he's being scapegoated for problens he didn't cause and privileges he can't utilize. This creates a …

In some cases yes, but in others even that's not enough. As someone who's been in the situation, the conventionally attractive woman's interest in me couldn't overcome the pedestal I had already put the non-conventionally attractive woman on. The former was nice to look at, but the latter was more interesting, witty, and charming, and my fixation on her personality and how she made me feel was stronger than shallow attraction. A guy with enough insecurities can be vulnerable to powerful emotiona…

That depends on the man. Men on average don't like ugly women, no. But lonely men with low self-esteem might. Social isolation heavily shifts one's mentality from the norm. While a common man may prioritize hot women he can show off, a lonely man may instead prioritize women who offer emotional healing. In the latter case an ugly woman's personality, affection, availability, etc. can make her a more comforting option than an intimidating attractive woman.

Some are saying, "most women don't use dating apps, so they can't be having such a big effect." But you have to think about which women are using the apps. It's less likely to be women who are doing fine in real life. It's more likely to be women who are struggling to find what they want in real life, and looking for a solution online. Whereas in the past those women would've been encouraged to settle for the local options, OLD has removed their pressure to do so. So you have a bunch of plain Ja…

But if you're not managing to get any sex on your side, that might just be a "you" issue, not an open relationship issue. Beside, preventing the other person to have fun just because you're not able to find people to have fun with, well, isn't that the unfair part in the end? The arrangement of a relationship should be mutually beneficial to both parties. If one partner wants an open relationship but the other gets literally nothing out of it, just breaking up may be a consideration.

I'm staying, since I love my dream girl on a fundamental level, rather than just for the superficial aspects of her. Unfortunately, the scenario isn't too applicable to reality, since most of us won't find our dream partners. Instead we'll find partners we generally like and whose flaws we tolerate as a result, until those flaws pile too high.

What do you recommend, then? Because a lot of guys don't simply don't approach women because they don't feel they're good enough to do so. And that decision is also criticized. Doesn't seem like there's a win condition here.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
