"reasonable" is determined by what the market will tolerate, which is why Sony is facing backlash after crossing that line recently, why "Match" is struggling, and why this post is pointing out the decline of sugar dating. You are right that no one is "owed" a product if they don't pay for it, but by the same token you can't sell a product if you price out your customer base.

You missed my point. It's not that it's exploitive. It's that it's more exploitive than the "customer base" can accept as "reasonable". The "daddies" know they're signing up to be "exploited" for money, same as the "babies" know their signing up to be exploited for sex. That said, both have an idea of how much exploitation they are fine with and consider fair, and once it's pushing past that point they take issue. It's like buying fast food. If I go to McDonalds, I know I'm paying far more than …

Because there's a limit to the level of "exploitation" that people will accept as fair enough. Your reasoning can be applied to any of the "late stage capitalism" corporate bs too. When a company with a product you likes becomes increasingly exploitive, it's normal to be resentful. Your land lord sees you as dollar signs, but I bet you'd still be upset if they just kept raising rent until they priced you out entirely simply because they had a market advantage.

I fully agree. I just hope more people can recognize that different people hold different "definitions", and that the definitions used by all the people involved in a situation are relevant, not just their own. It's a big enough step for people to realize that not everyone thinks the same way they do about things, and that their perspective isn't the default or objectively correct one.

Perhaps, but most complaints about the "friendzone", from both genders, tend to be due to mismatched expectations of how much investment is appropriate for a "friend" and how much is for someone you want to be "more than friends" with. Guys tend to invest more in the hopes of moving to more than friends, and then get frustrated when women treat that level of investment as expected and "normal" for a friendship. Then if the guy accepts that the relationship is just "friends", and reduces his inve…

Rejected men historically would go to war and kill each other in mass for resources. The survivors would then have the status and resources to be selected, and the competition would have been thinned out. Modern warfare and globalism doesn't allow for this historical solution.
/r/PurplePillDebate02/07/26 11:59 PM

That's kinda the point of the black pill. There is no (viable) macro solution, so individual solutions are the best they can get. If you want an actual answer about a macro solution that would fix many of the problems, an event resulting in the mass death of much of the male population would increase male scarcity, and in turn increase the survivors relative value and concentrate resources to a prosperous level. Historically, this happened naturally with plagues and wars, but globalism, nuclear …

additionally, it often carries the implication of cuckolding. A woman finding someone physically attractive (good genetics) to have unprotected sex with, then finding a more stable and committed guy to fund her and the "alpha's" kid. This is also one of the main drives for the "hate" towards single mothers.

I'd argue that sexuality is part of utility for humans, which is part of why virginity gets judged as a social failing past a certain point in life. If a guy isn't competent sexually, or lacks sexual utility, that heavily decreases his worth to potential sexual/reproductive partners, and in turn that drops his value to society.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/06/26 03:36 AM

Men are valued for utility and competency. Emasculation is the denial of a man's utility and competency, and thus the denial of that man's value. Rather than just being humiliated, it's the declaration that you are worthless to society, your peers, your family, and to yourself. Society tends to hold the position that worthless men should go quietly die out of sight.

Crying indicates vulnerability, which brings two types of responses, those being help and predators. People who know help won't come for them refuse to cry so they don't attract predators. People who are used to being supported and protected cry because they trust that help with arrive before the predators.

The more leverage you have, the more acceptable people find your actions. The super rich and powerful guy might follow his interest to have three girlfriends at once, and those girlfriends might decide to accept that because they are attracted to him and his wealth and status, and know that if they weren't willing to accept that arraignment there are other women who would. Likewise, he would know that not every woman would be willing to accept that, but he has enough leverage to have enough opti…

There have been studies that show that the fewer options presented to people, the more content they are with what they receive, while the more options presented, the more regret and second guessing they have no matter which choice they make. Our modern world and technology has connected us all to such a degree that, in theory, nearly the entire population of the world is available as options, so it's little wonder that people are far less content no matter who they choose.

Rather than generic sexual assault, I'd say it's closer to prostitution, with all the coercion and abuse that can come with that. Some call that rape, even though there is compensation and arguably consent involved. In turn, since marriage is historically a contract, it could be likened to buying out a prostitute, in which case spousal rape could be argued as just a "john" taking what he paid for. I'd like to state that I do not condone these views and simply wanted to explain the thought proces…

Sometimes it works out great, a true "best case scenario". Other times it results in tragedy because people change and often want whatever they don't have. If she has a stable and loving husband, there's a non-negligible chance that she starts valuing "diverse experiences" and excitement instead. It's not every case, but it's enough that guys have to consider the risk. Like the saying, "Women pick men and hope they will change, while men pick women and hope they'll stay the same.

Two details that have important implications. Values change over time and value is relative. Someone might value loyalty enough to start dating, but value excitement enough to leave. Likewise, a "moral" guy might face rejection throughout his youth because that wasn't valued, and finding that women who are the same or similar to the ones who rejected him are coming back now that circumstances and experience has changed their values is of little comfort and doesn't erase the harm that earlier rej…

People act according to their self interest. Guys wanting to date, marry, or fuck isn't surprising or negative. Being reduced to "only" having sex as a motivation is the negative stereotype that's pushed back on. This is a "walking and chewing gum" type of thing. People are complex with multiple, often competing interests. To pretend people don't have their own benefits in mind is naive, but to claim that's the full extent of their considerations is reductionist.

It's about creating opportunity. Rather than say most men only want one thing, you could say that most men wouldn't turn it down if given the opportunity. If a guy is going out of his way to engage with an attractive woman, then there is a good chance that he is, along side other considerations like being nice to others or aiding fellow humans, observing to see if an opportunity exists. If he thinks that the opportunity might exist in the future, he may continue to engage to make sure he's able …

The violence is the male's responsibility and the cause of that violence is the responsibility of society, including women. These are not mutually exclusive. It's the same idea as how poverty drives crime. The criminal is responsible for the crime they commit, but society bears responsibility for creating situations that result in that level of desperation. This is more important when looking from a solution oriented lens rather than a moral lens.

Alternatively, almost everything about how we interact with eachother and the world is used to influence eachother towards the outcomes we prefer. Almost everything is "controlling" or "manipulation" on a technical level, but that doesn't make it inherently wrong, malicious, or evil.

Relationships don't simply happen for no reason. A relationship is based on fulfilling needs, and which needs are fulfilled determines the nature of the relationship. Companionship, intimacy, emotional support, and sex are all "needs" that marriage and dating are advertised as fulfilling, so if one of those is missing it's seen as a incomplete relationship at best, and often a violation of the social contract. Have as much or as little sex as you want with whoever you want, but then be honest ab…

Just because they have a reason for their opinion doesn't mean I need to simply take the results of their opinion. It's a conflict of interests. They see benefit to hating men, and I see benefits to pushing back and discouraging the hatred of men. I simply don't believe that ideas should be dismissed out of hand due to the label of "hatred".

When someone says "all black people" it's racist, when they say "all jews" it's antisemitic, when they say "all women" it's sexist, but when someone says "all men" it's something for men to go to therapy to learn to ignore.

Hers isn't the only fault seen, but she seems plenty aware of the other guy's fault already and also seems to be trying to ignore her own fault in the situation by blaming "all men". In most situations, everyone who's involved impacted the result in some way, and carries responsibility for their choices and how those choices led to the result. Sometimes their isn't a perfect choice, so you need to be aware of the potential cost of each choice and accept that you are choosing one of them and bare…

I said "between him and the woman, she was the only one who had a say in her bad experience." "him" in that sentence, refers to the uninvolved man who is finding himself blamed simply for sharing the same gender as the guy who hurt her.
/r/PurplePillDebate06/05/26 04:53 PM

I almost agree with you, because you're right that one of the three common use cases is to tell someone to "shut up". Typically, it's used that way when a woman is generalizing and blaming "all" men for the behaviors of them men she choose. A guy caught in the crossfire of her frustration knows that he's not the responsible party, but feels blamed anyway, so he points out that between him and the woman, she was the only one who had a say in her bad experience. So she needs to "choose better" ins…

There is always "better" and the more "better" you experience, the higher your standard becomes and the harder it is to be content with what you have. Especially since "better" is relative to your experiences, so "good" or even "great" can become "worse" in your eyes if you've experienced even one instance that was "better".

Spend significant time together talking, interacting, and getting to know his values and beliefs. Jumping to fast from one relationship to another is on of the most common errors I see women make in dating. Find out if you like him as a person, not just as a body, and make sure your values are aligned. As part of that, don't worry about missing opportunities because you took your time or about having to turn down an option that you liked but that has signs that the relationship wouldn't work lon…

Women appeal to men to enforce their will, and those men do it largely because doing otherwise would tank their chances at getting laid. At any given time there is almost always some guy willing to employ violence or authority against another man in the hopes of impressing or pleasing a woman.

The difference is between knowing subconsciously and actually acknowledging it and its implications. Even if a bluepill "knows" that physical attractiveness matters, they will deny and downplay the effect, because the alternative is to recognize that some people are ugly and will have a far harder time finding love through no fault of their own. This goes against "fairness", the "just world" fallacy, and their own discrimination caused by the "horns effect". Additionally, it means they might hav…

I'd disagree, simply due to having worked customer facing jobs and seeing how "cute young females" get treated by the customer base. I doubt it's every woman all the time, but I know that there are plenty of women who are targeted on a near daily basis. Specifically this is noticeable for the underaged girls in "grownup" roles, like working a job or caring for a young sibling, which leads me to think this may be an experience that is common to most women, but obviously not to the same degree thr…

I see three core value questions in this situation, though this may be the messiest situation to apply them to. First is the question of harm. Is cheating an action deserving of punishment? How much harm does cheating do, and how much punishment is justified if any? The second is the question of vigilantism. A large aspect of the social contract of " civilized society" is the idea of outsourcing "justice" and "violence" to someone who has authority legitimized by faith in the system. When that s…

I would argue that many times the "fun" of those friendships is in the ambiguous boundaries and plausible deniability, so an attempt at establishing boundaries is seen as ruining the fun and fought against using any words needed, mainly "insecure" and "controlling". The only mixed gender "best friends" relationship I've ever seen work healthily was one in which the friendship was started as young children and they see eachother as siblings.

Very little can overcome a difference in time spent together. If your partner spends the majority of their time with someone else specific, then it's not shocking when they are closer and more intimate with that person than they are with you. This is why "work wives" and workplace cheating are so common and problematic, and a large part of why long distance relationships struggle so much. If your partner is spending, or trying to spend, more time investing in that "best friend" than they are the…

Conversations like this is why I prefer the term "maladaptive" over "bad person". "Bad" carries moral implications and a sense of fault, while "maladaptive" indicates that someone is faulty. The trauma might explain poor decisions, but that doesn't make the decision less faulty. I'd say that, while some women are evil and indulge in malice vicariously through their evil partner, in most cases the woman isn't a morally terrible person, and instead is terrible at being a well functional person.

If you want a logical answer for why female promiscuity is shamed, it's because it's bad for societies at a macro level, since nuclear families produce better outcomes on average when raising children and are less dependent on the government to support those children. If you want to know why male promiscuity isn't shamed and is lauded instead, it's because women consenting to sex provides validation of a mans worth, so a many who can get a multitude of women to consent is "reviewed" as being wor…

"shit testing" gets used for two different, but similar and linked, behaviors. The first is creating artificial drama to provoke a reaction from the other person and test how they respond. The second is deliberately violating boundaries to see if the other person is willing and able to defend those boundaries. The reason the term ended up with gendered connotations is that, while both men and women test eachother's boundaries and willingness to defend them, men are less likely to create artifici…

The reason I mentioned both value and attraction separately is because the first guy was either perceived as attractive enough to ignore the risks or as valuable enough to worth the risk. Maybe her risk assessment has changed, but that doesn't change the fact that she sees the new guy as either not attractive enough to ignore risks or not valuable enough to be worth those risks.

Point one is misstated. If you make a guy wait for sex, when you gave it quickly to other men, it shows that you find him either less attractive or less valuable than the previous guy. Consistent standards are more respected. Point three is correct, but with the caveat that most "value" statements need. Value is subjective, and in this case the lower your body count the higher your value to a man who is looking for a stable or long term relationship. Point two is the answer to complaints about p…

One of the main differences is that the only one of those standards that are out of a woman's control is her age, and she was still youthful at some point and had the opportunity to make use of that youth. Comparatively, the standards women hold for men tend to include some things that are within control, but also heavily focus on biological features that are not controllable, and what's left tend to be things that are mutually exclusive in almost all cases.

Value is subjective and usually determined by scarcity. Men are "worthless" because that impregnation could be done by a fraction of the male population, and the rest are then considered surplus. To a degree, this is the mechanism behind the 80/20 rule, in that the majority of women are content trying to get everything they want or need from men from the top fraction of the population, and treat the rest as unwanted surplus. Historically, enforced monogamy was the solution, which prevented large…

This is the unfortunate answer. Many men go a long time before experiencing what it's like to be wanted, and some just don't get the experience. Without experiencing it at least once, they lack a point of reference and solve their lack of certainty by defaulting to the optimistic answer of "maybe she likes me, I need more feedback to know for sure" when the answer being "no" would be clear to those with a point of reference.

Thankyou for introducing me to Arthur Schopenhauer. I've long held that the key to "happiness" was in finding an equilibrium where you can be content, rather than chasing the highs of joy or constant progress in life. The issue is with finding a woman who holds similar views, as most of them seem absolutely repulsed by a lack of ambition or desire for a modest and stable life.

Ambiguity and plausible deniability are the keys to avoiding accountability or judgement for your decisions. For this reason, an unambiguous standard would be wildly unpopular with certain demographics, and even of those outside that demographic, many would still prefer the option of plausible deniability to be on the table. On the other hand this would be wildly popular with autistic people and many men.

Even someone as privileged as him is being crushed by the economy and even from his privileged position has neither the time nor money needed to effectively date.

Unfortunately, I think the answer is that you aren't "supposed" to be able to date until you have the disposable time and disposable income to pick up one of these "hobbies". If you can't afford the hobby, you likely won't be able to afford dates, gifts, or offer financial aid/security. If you can't afford the time for a hobby, then you likely wouldn't have the time to give the relationship the attention and time investment it needs.

I don't think it's exactly a choice, but it's not objective either. I believe attraction, and likewise sexuality, are heavily impacted by socialization. Biological instinct plays a big role, but propaganda, exposure, and "culture" can make a massive difference in what is considered attractive to you. Finally, comparison is the thief of joy. The hottest person you've seen will most likely be attractive to you, but once you are exposed to even "better" options the old attractions can seem lacking …

Some stuff is relatively clear, but with exceptions, which is where "reading the room" is useful, but others are completely vague and are where plausible deniability comes into play. Making "read the room" the standard helps in those cases where the answer is an absolute "no", but just muddies things in any case where the answer would be "yes" or "maybe".

Plausible deniability is mainly for social safety, manipulating how events are retold to insure they don't suffer shame. In short, it's about avoiding accountability for their own choices.

In turn, divine forgiveness is absolute and provides sanctuary no matter the sin being forgiven. Because the scale of divine condemnation and forgiveness is so wide, it's of little to no use to humans for informing our judgements on earth. The pedo who repents and is forgiven by god should still be kept away from children, the cheater who …

Women enjoy stories. Creating a narrative or a story around the event and playing into it is how to play their game. Don't just get a candy for her, find a way to turn it into a story and link that story to her through the candy. Tangentially, "how was your day" is an invitation to share a story, not just to say it was good or bad.

"A" priority and "the" priority are two different concepts. Additionally, things can have upper and lower limits to their "value", meaning that there is a baseline were even "low priority" things become big issues if below the baseline. In the context of sex, it's not the most important thing, but its' complete absence is enough to make it a more pertinent issue. As an example, being able to respect that person is the most fundamental requirement for me to even consider getting in a relationship…

You can't control the actions of others, only your own. So I can't make other people not be violent, I can only decide if I'll be violent and how I'll respond to the violence of others. Being a protector is about the response to violence. The response to other people's choices.

This is a topic I've taken an interest in because I think many people get it wrong, and the implications of the answer effect numerous other issues. Shortly, I answer no. Value is subjective, so rather than asking if a life has value the question should be "who does this life have value to". My life is valued by my family, by my friends, to a lesser extent by my manager at my job. It's valued by the government to a slight degree as a source of taxes and domestic output, and it's valued slightly …

I think the forth one is saying that women are just as capable of rape as men, and to imply they are less capable of evil is misogyny rather than misandry. It makes sense they would view it like that when it's in terms of "victim/victimizer" and seen through the lens of power dynamics. To say women are inherently the victims or unable to be on the "stronger" side of the power dynamic is an insult to them.

Plenty of women are good with budgeting and responsible with money, but plenty more don't think or understand the value of a dollar, or have poor impulse control resulting in excessive luxury purchases. Personally, I simply refuse to involve myself with someone like that, even if it means I stay single, but for those who do marry that type of partner, I fully understand why they would limit the potential damage they could do to the family finances.

There are two types of people who I see use that phrase, and the two types are linked. The first are women who believe their very existence is a gift to those around them, but that the men she's dating need more to justify their position in her life. It's hypocrisy. The second are men who see women list out a massive wishlist of all the things she want's from a guy, who are asking why she feels entitled to all of that and if she has anything about herself that justifies the attitude.

Every woman who adopts a "slut" mindset or the associated values is another woman who no longer fits what many guys are looking for in a potential wife.

Part of the idea hinges on the idea that people are not nearly as unique and special as they might wish they were or were told they are.

Value is subjective, not objective. It may be a majority holding that subjective view, but it's still subjective. With that in mind, sex with a man devalues a woman, specifically as a prospective partner, for other men. A boyfriend doesn't value his girlfriend less for sleeping with him, but would likely value her less as a long term partner for sleeping with others. Value is always a question of who is doing the valuing, and what it's being valued for.

Sure, she can be replaced, but it's significantly harder. Which means the threshold for being "harder or less convenient to stay with than it is to replace them" is much higher too.

Attraction is largely influenced by social perception and comparison. Your pool of options were once pretty limited due to geography and exposure, so it wasn't impossible to be attractive relative to those around you.

I get the impression that it's the goal most of the men here have, but that how to go about it is a confusing and complicated issue.

No. The argument isn't for women to go with men they aren't attracted to. Attraction can be influenced by external pressures, so just like there was an active effort in media and advertising to convince men that obesity is attractive (or at least fine) in women, it's believed that women can be advertised to and socialized to find average men attractive.

Life sucks in general, and in specific impactful ways, and usually in a way that there is little you can do to make it stop sucking. People can handle suffering, but helplessness is far more torturous, so people go to therapy in the hopes of gaining some level of control over life. If you can't control the external, you can at least control the internal, for all the good it'll do you.

Bringing it back to the "men aren't allowed to", most of the things that's said about is because women still have their "weapon" and no hesitation to use it to punish men for whatever it is. Say the wrong thing or hold the wrong opinion and watch society itself be used as a club to beat you into submission. Meanwhile women's bad behavior goes mostly unchecked because men don't have a "weapon" they can use to punish them with. That's why they talk about how "women are allowed" all sorts of toxic …

Yeah, the skill and effort a man would need to weaponize a social group, or even just keep the group neutral, against a woman who sheds a single tear is enough to have most guys just give up. When this creates situations like domestic violence where a woman can beat her man and then cry to the cops and get the man arrested..... it's just no good. So some guys eventually decide that nothing else worked and go back to the "natural" solution and then no body wins.

It's a bit primal, but men by nature use violence, the implication of violence, and physical strength as their primary weapons to settle conflict, while women by nature weaponize the "tribe" or society around them to settle conflicts. In modern civilization violence (men's default weapon) is more or less banned from use while weaponizing public opinion and social strength (women's default weapon) is encouraged and approved. Men are sensitive because they know they are forced into playing a game …

A social circle acts as a connection to society, and acts as a preventative measure against the most extreme and antisocial behaviors. Someone who has no social group is seen as unanchored and as potentially dangerous, like a loose cannon, while those with a friend group are "tied down" and less likely to go off the deep end.

A decent amount of the house chore stuff is a difference in standards. Men in general have a more flexible standard for "clean" and "dirty". Both parties likely want a clean house, but if the men are content as long as the dirt level is under 30% and the women feel it's an immediate need at 20%, then there is a mismatch that needs clear communication to fix. The guy isn't going to spontaneously clean at 20% because it's still within reasonable levels to him, and the gal isn't likely to let it re…

Part of the problem is that flirting is often intentionally done in such a way as to leave plausible deniability. This is not limited to when in relationships, but also just to not be embarrassed by rejection or so they can bail on a developing relationship at any time by claiming there was nothing there in the first place.

For a while it was fashionable for women to shave, and that is still considered normal. In turn, political groups used it as a battleground for women's empowerment due to it being relatively observable. This lead to the "standard" perception that not shaving meant you were either rebelling against the "patriarchy" in one form or another, or were simply unconcerned with attracting men (and more likely seeking women instead). Guy's fashion has fluctuated both ways, but the stereotypes that are cur…

I may be misinformed, and this likely is not true everywhere, but the reason I've heard is that "no fault" includes not taking fault into account when deciding on the division of assets and the payment of alimony. This results in situations where someone may be forced to stay with a cheater or abusive spouse because they would be financially ruined if they split. Someone could cheat on you and then divorce you and you'd still have to pay them because "no one's at fault". With "fault" being put b…

The main factor I've heard behind this complaint is that women want a man who earns more or "at least" as much as she does, but women have been squeezing men out of the position to make that amount, some intentionally while other incidentally. It's not due to a moral wrong that women committed, but doubling the workforce doubles the competition, and for every woman that "wins" that's another man who is no longer making equal or more.

Part of the reason why people want relationships is for security. The idea of having someone who will be loyal and stay with you through thick and thin is really attractive. However humans are not inherently good, and often are deceptive and selfish, thus it is wise to be aware of possible betrayals and to not ignore potential dangers to yourself and to your relationship. If there are dangers that are not being addressed and handled, then it is natural to not feel secure in the relationship. Som…

I agree with most of those except for the forest one. There are way to many ghost stories about banshees and other undead maidens in the woods trying to lure men to their death to tell me that a woman alone in the woods at night isn't seen as creepy. In fact I'd argue that the man would get the benefit of being assumed to have a purpose to be in the woods at night, for good or ill but at least explainable and not just random murder or ghost.

I wasn't saying anything about how good or bad the bet is. Simply that having enough women attracted to you to enable you to behave promiscuously is a group validation that a man is high value or status, and that makes him even more attractive. It creates a feedback loop which results in "Chad". If you yourself are an equally "high value" woman (by male standards, and by his in particular) then he will likely be more than happy to commit.

The issue is that society, both men and women, views being in a relationship as a test of worth and risk. If you are not in a relationship then you are seen as having something wrong with you that lowers your worth or that makes you a risk to those around you in some way. Fairness matters in evaluation methods, and that is why "nice guys" get mad. It's not only about not having a relationship, but also due to being evaluated so poorly as a result.

weak vs strong doesn't matter compared to aggressor vs defender. In any other circumstance there is an understanding that being weak only provides (theoretical) protection from being attacked, but is your own problem if you are the attacker. If you attack someone you are consenting to the ass whooping that may or may not follow. If you don't want to get the shit beaten out of you, then the first place to start is minding your own business and not attacking someone else.

not really a threat so much as a prediction of the natural outcome of choices. In the same way that telling someone who constantly speeds and drives recklessly that they will probably crash eventually is not a threat.

it could be argued that how you dress is part of flirting, but it is a bit of a grey area. I think in the end it's a matter of how much of yourself you are giving to your partner. A relationship like that involves a certain amount of "shared ownership" of eachother, where each partner has at least some claim on the other. Maybe not in casual dating, but definitely when at the level of shared responsibilities or taking responsibility for eachother.

The discussions are because many of the preferences are are related or determined by societal pressures, and there is a hope that these discussions will induce enough societal change to change those preferences. It's similar to some of what the body positivity and sex positivity movements are attempting with some of their messaging. That said, it's unclear exactly how we go from complaining about "unfair" or inefficient preferences to societal change that alters the preference, which results in …

It's the male version of the caretaker instinct. A desire to teach and improve the people around us. We may be creating an ally to stand beside us or a rival to drive us onward, but either way we all get stronger together by lifting up those nearby. Additionally, and slightly alternatively, guys just don't like seeing things done "wrong", and want to problem solve. Someone not knowing how to do something or doing it wrong is a problem, so there is a desire to fix that by either doing it ourselve…

My personal rule of thumb is that it's fine to approach, but not to follow. If she makes up a reason to leave, then she will come back or arrange further contact if she wants to keep talking. Otherwise that is the end of the conversation until the next coincidental meeting, and even then awareness that she showed disinterest is kept in mind.

I think part of the mindset is due to the perception of value. It's often said, and not without some truth, that a large portion of a woman's value to a man is tied to their youth, due to it impacting their beauty, fertility, and amount of baggage. A man's value to a woman is said to be tied to their resources and ability to provide stability, which are both things that tend to increase with age. The result is that if two 30 year olds are dating, then the woman is getting the man at his "prime",…

The red pill is simply a set of knowledge and understanding that is normally hidden behind the scenes and often denied. What people do with that knowledge and the conclusions they come to are a separate issue entirely. Some sell the info, others package it into something more sensational and scam people, others warn of the dangers, many explain how to hook up, and a few tell of how the knowledge can be used to gain and maintain a long term relationship. Everyone has their view on the right way t…

you have to realize though that, while you can choose to stick it out, there is no way to control, force, or guarantee that your partner will also choose to stick it out and work through it. What you choose or do matters a lot less due to the fact that it can all be made waste by choices and actions entirely outside of your control.

I love seeing this acknowledged. Most people seem to pretend that "care" is infinite and so we should care about everyone. "care" is a limited resource, in that it is time, energy, and focus, and some people have more to give while others have less.

you're missing the key part. Don't bother trying to persuade her, Leave, and find someone else who will. The distinction between leaving a relationship that doesn't match what you are seeking vs cheating is an important one.

To be fair, many states in America don't require consent from all parties to film if in a public area. Some do, but many don't. As such, if someone has a problem being filmed in public, then while understandable, that is still a them problem and not the problem of the person filming. That said, stalking may be a different thing, and I'm not sure legally where the line between simply filming people in public spaces and being considered as stalking a specific person is.

so a combination of nanny and secretary. Or perhaps just a really good butler or head maid. Fair enough. Let's quantify it and pay accordingly so everyone stops complaining about it being unfair.

I believe part of the issue is a desire for plausible deniability. If you are simply using body language, then it's simply to say after the fact that you didn't consent or were coerced. Sometimes this is used for headgames, sometimes for blackmail, to bail on an embarrassing situation, or to get revenge later for something else. I know not all women would take that approach, and even fewer think they would before being in the situation, but almost everyone likes having options avalible and tools…

It comes down to "value" being added or removed. Men valued a woman who was chaste because she was more likely to be loyal to him and the children she gave birth to were more likely to be his and not another man's. This resulted in young women being taught chastity because that would add value to them, and shamed for lowering their value by sleeping around. An additional factor is other women shaming a woman who sleeps around due to control of sex being a source of power, and the women who is gi…

The red pill is simply trying to figure out the logic and reason behind human relationships. Some people find great comfort in trying to bring order to the chaos that is human behaviors and emotions, while others find comfort in simply living through those emotions and accepting them. Likewise, to bring order to something with so many factors and so much irrationality, it's needed to peel back layer after layer and reduce the many factors until you reach the core foundation. Some find that deepl…

Personally, I think that compatible values are much more important, but I also aim for around three shared interests that we could do together. I don't have to like all of their stuff, and they don't have to like all of mine, but it's easier to hang out and spend time together when there is a common interest or activity to reinforce the joy of being around each other. Shared interests isn't the foundation though, it's just a lubricant to prevent chaffing in the relationship.

That involves risk, and most people avoid risks when possible. Due to the culture of men being expected to approach, guys don't usually have the option of avoiding risk if they want to date, but even that is changing as more guys are deciding it's not worth the rising risks and seemingly lowered rewards, and more women are starting to become more aggressive, desperate, or less hypocritical about what they want.

You seem to be mostly right. Typically, they want something that adds drama, joy, or that they could exploit, but isn't a weakness or vulnerability that could be exploited by outsiders or put her at risk in any way. This is broad brush based on my understanding of the human mind, and I don't claim that it is flawless, but it does explain most of the duality of women wanting emotional vulnerability while also hating it.

The red pill isn't a moral code, or even an instruction manual per say. It's an attempt to understand the why and how of human behavior at the most primal and subconscious level. As a result, there's usually plenty of statistics, some psychology and sociology, a bit of pseudo science hoodoo, and a fair bit of personal interpretation based on observation or trauma. Then once you understand something, the next question is what do you do with that knowledge. Some try to leverage it to game a system…

men and women are more or less equally "thirsty". The difference is that men are willing to quench that thirst with a partner from the majority of women, while women are thirsting after the ideal of the best. The women's "thirst" is concentrated on certain men, while men's "thirst" is diluted, but also expressed, to the majority of women. Additionally, women have more options, so they are drowning, while the majority of men struggle to have options and operate under scarcity, which leads to a so…

The problem is that the majority of guys seem not to be attractive to the majority of women. As a result, a lot of guys are and likely will remain single for the foreseeable future. This isn't necessarily something within the control of the guys in question, so they aren't necessarily to blame. That said, they still have a natural drive to find those connections and create a family, and for a concerningly large percentage of the male population, that simply isn't in the cards. Now, what do you d…
