| 4 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect" | Houston_HTX | /r/askTRP | 06/05/21 10:21 PM |

| 12 | how would you correct being a pushoverWhen people take you for granted or disrespect you or reward your kindness with rudeness, they are signaling one big red flag to you: that they think they are "better" than you and/or they see you as weak(either physically or socially). It's a built-in human instinctive dominance thing. Yes, I know it's not fair or "nice", but that's how many people are. Bottom line: to anybody who treats you negatively, immediately withdraw attention/respect/kindness. Immediately. Don't overthink it. Don't crea… | /r/askTRP | 11/06/21 03:05 AM |
| 2 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"Pressure flip works on people who respect boundaries and limits. This guy is trying to deliberately emasculate you........and he's succeeding. Because you want to sit there and 'debate' him, so you can win the supposed respect of the onlookers/audience. Instead, what they are thinking is: "Mr.Neurotypical is a weak wimp; another guy is fondling his wife, and he wants to debate semantics: "aRe yOu sExUaLly aSsAuLTINg mY wIfe?!?" In the caveman era, or even in the recent past, justifiable violence… | /r/askTRP | 08/05/21 01:36 AM |
| -1 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"Thank you; very well-thought out and reasoned reply and example. Will write more fleshed-out response later. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 03:22 AM |
| 2 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"No. I read that example here, and the stupidity of the responses made me post this thread. I'm asking you sincerely what you would do. Your example of the lion was reasonable; so, how would you handle the situation above. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:57 AM |
| 3 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"There’s more power in silence with an intense stare than bitching like a woman. Agreed. This is a actionable and direct way of dealing with disrespect and/or aggression. It's not passive and it's not conflict-avoidant. Which is what too many here preach. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:48 AM |
| 3 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"There is a invisible line between a shit-test and disrespect; and too often, conflict-avoidant, meek, men will rationalize their passivity and cowardice in real-life, by quoting TRP 'theology' which they think makes them alpha. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:45 AM |
| 1 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"What could go wrong? They would develop a sense of inner integrity; boundless self-agency; a (very) healthy ego, and the drive to take what they want. That's what would happen. But, of course, you would want them to be passive and avoid conflict and live in a dream-world where they are online chads. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:42 AM |
| 3 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"You are standing with your wife at work function and she is propositioned in front of you by your co-worker. Anybody who is not autistic knows that in this scenario the coworker is deliberately emasculating you.......in front of all your peers. What do you do? TRP Autism fanclub 1: Ignore the asshole, bro. AWALT. Stay on your mission. TRP Autism fanclub 2: Agree & Amplify, bro. Offer to leave the house so they can fuck with privacy. This is the kind of idiotic nonsense that I'm talking about. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:40 AM |
| 3 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"So, how would you(not the sidebar, you) deal with disrespect? Specifically. The sidebar is not some sort of inerrant divine guidance; neither is TRP 'theology'. For a sub-reddit that's supposed to be based on reality as it is, not as you wish it to be; there sure is a ton of lazy group-think. How easy it is to brush away blatant disrespect from your peers.....as "shit-test". I think the most delusional rationalization of TRP was the guy that had his co-worker a) fondle his girlfriend in front of… | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:30 AM |
| 3 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect""Stay on your mission, bro! Ignore the bullies, bro! Just close your eyes and think of England, bro!" | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:21 AM |
| 2 | Passivity and avoiding-conflict are the plague of modern manhood; so why does advice like "Ignore" and "Agree & Amplify" persist? Instead of what SHOULD be the prime rule: "Never tolerate disrespect"That might work with a rando on the street disrespecting you as you walk by, but it doesn't fly in a group social setting or in school. Exactly. I swear half of the idiotic usage of TRP catchphrases seems to be from kids who never held a job or interacted in high-stress situations. When another person is sticking their finger in your eye(literally or figuratively), you must respond. Notice I didn't say react. But respond in a manner, time, & place of your choosing. | /r/askTRP | 07/05/21 02:20 AM |
