| 2 | Single mothers are turned off by their son's pain of growing up, yet still expect them to be strong Alphas as adults.Thanks for the detailed reply. Very interesting. She then goes on to say that it's actually useful because it allows her to separate the wheat from the chaff very early on. I don't understand what this means, except that she's intentionally mind-fucking people. Of course that doesn't surprise me, it's just weird to have it spelled out so blatantly. | /r/TheRedPill | 29/07/16 04:55 AM |

I'm just curious how somebody could consciously promote one set of vitues while explictly and consciously rewarding the exact opposite. And I take back what I sad about "zero" above. The grad school adviser did marry a very BP guy, who she then cucked, leading to divorce. At first I only knew about the divorce.

| 2 | Why Modern Feminism Is Illogical, Unnecessary, and EvilI wouldn't rag on gay men, as most of us who have been around for awhile can see right through the veil. We don't have any incentive for seeing women as "wonderful creatures", and (at least in our youth) are often granted access to information that is carefully kept from straight men. I'm vehemently anti-feminist because of what I know. | /r/TheRedPill | 10/06/16 05:47 AM |

Actually, if you read the article, it was supportive of male obstetric nurses, and described research that shows that patients who have been cared for by them generally have had positive experiences. It's really the nursing school faculty that are the major obstacle. However, as I mentioned, it's a sensitive situation, and think this is one area where MRAs do in fact need to be sensitive to the wishes of others.

| -1 | States place restrictions on male labor and delivery nurses.This is a tough one. A major consideration in patient care (especially from a nursing perspective) is patient comfort, especially when undergoing particularly stressful procedures. While it's unfortunate that many women (and/or institutions) do not see male nurses as professionals on par with (e.g.) male gynecologists or obstetricians, I nevertheless think that an individual patient's concerns need to be taken seriously when it is at all possible to do so. | /r/MensRights | 04/09/15 04:58 AM |

However, the basis for the article is a longitudinal study: For this study, researchers took brain scans of 18 subjects before and after their testosterone treatments.

After realizing that elections were essentially rigged (if not directly, at least via campaign resources), I began to think that the solution was to vote with dollars, i.e. strive to become as independent of big systems as possible, and thereby preserve ones labor (= dollars) for oneself, ones family, and ones immediate community.

However, if you read the blogger Dalrock (with whom I do not always agree but he's still a valuable perspective) you'll come to find out that even most Christian churches are still very heavy into insidious forms of feminism that view men as substantially more "broken" (i.e. prone to original sin) than women.

However, if somebody has been sexually abused as a child (as could easily be the case with your brother, since pedophiles are not necessarily picky about gender) then they would be at higher risk for sex offenses. So either way, your brother needs counseling. He also needs to be far away from your mother who (if I may say so) is an abject failure at motherhood.

There are certain cancers for which we know the major risk factors. It is smart to avoid those risks if you want to avoid those particular cancers. However, once a person has a diagnosis, you would have to be a dick to blame them for their disease (see what you get for smoking!?!)

| 2 | What unit of measurement is used to measure oppression?You could come up with some numerical index by combining health disparities indices (which are reasonably well developed) with other social and economic metrics. The problem is how you weight each individual contributing factor. You can skew the result any way you want by choosing an appropriate set of weights.

| 1 | An alternative to PUA hedonism or MGTOW withdrawal.A number of gay guys (including myself) comment here from time to time. On the one hand, we don't suffer from the same asymmetry in family law; on the other, we get a double dose of vilification from assumptions about the male sex drive and about our (in)adequacy as parents. Finally, gay men are typically less prone to the women-are-wonderful effect that straight men in particular suffer from, and we are more inclined to see other men in a positive light (for the same reason). | /r/MensRights | 26/08/15 12:13 AM |

The TRP/MGTOW folks are correct in pointing out the evils that women are capable of, which are largely swept under the rug by western culture.

There are a number of other social issues that are important (e.g. the way issues are portrayed in the media depending on whether they inconvenience men or women more), but it's difficult to address them without coercive measures.

A gay man may express masculine preferences (emphasizing youth and beauty), feminine preferences (emphasizing physical and/or social power), or either at different times.

Thus, a slim figure signals either contextually-appropriate relative resistance to those drives or else high metabolic rate that counters the obesity, in either case a contextually favorable adaptation indicativ… | /r/TheRedPill | 17/08/15 12:06 AM |

It's accurate as a first-order approximation, and therefore useful for navigating a great many social interactions, especially when there is not much available information other than gender and other superficial characteristics.

It's just that our culture and legal structure creates incentives for women to behave badly. The consequence is that women who are naturally inclined to be good/compassionate/reasonable/respectful may be just a little bit more selfish than they otherwise would be (but still potentially marriageable under the right set of circumstances). However, women inclined towards bad behavior will be really bad and rewarded for it. Without a great deal of… | /r/TheRedPill | 30/10/14 12:29 AM |

Here is a perfect example of what not to do, from /r/personalfinanceIf you're going to help your partner get out of debt (and there are reasons to do that) it's better to help them get in a situation where they can pay down the debt faster. For example, if you share an apartment, pay a larger proportion of the rent so that the other person has more free money to pay down the debt. NEVER EVER legally take on the other person's debt. | /r/TheRedPill | 23/07/14 05:36 AM |

Now, even if a few men talk of committing suicide and of reducing global human… | /r/MensRights | 25/05/14 04:00 AM |
| 12 | 'Omega man' kills 6 and commits suicideWell, to be clear, I have never used the term "manipulative hamsters", although that term certainly appears in TRP. We all see what we want to see, including myself. Maybe the anger component is a major part of TRP, but it's not what I personally come here for. I come here to be reminded that women and men respect men who are confident and self-possessed, and to always be improving. | /r/TheRedPill | 25/05/14 03:48 AM |

| 31 | 'Omega man' kills 6 and commits suicideI think you'd find a spectrum of voices on TRP. Some are as extreme as to say things like "women't shouldn't be allowed to vote" and "women should submit to their husbands", and there is some anger about how some women treat boyfriends/husbands poorly. The anger is a post-denial-stage reaction to a perception that they have been lied to about women's motives, priorities, and behaviors, and I think it is simply a stage. While these sentiments do appear on TRP, I don't think of them as mainstream.… | /r/TheRedPill | 25/05/14 03:14 AM |

| 2 | Thanks guysTRP sometimes has some extremist positions, which I generally write off as a product of the post-denial anger phase. But once you reach the acceptance stage I think you mellow out a bit. I also owe some gratitude to TRP for getting me out of a funk about professional issues. I was allowing myself to become a bitch at work, and now that I've changed my attitude things are better and my self-confidence has returned. So THANK YOU. | /r/TheRedPill | 24/05/14 11:51 PM |
| 3 | Men and boy's mental health and how you can help.This is really important. My takeaway from the Rodgers atrocity is that the mental health of boys and men needs to be taken seriously. And not with this "all men are potential rapists" mentality, but by genuinely addressing the concerns of boys and men. Rodgers may have been a nutcase from the get-go, but I wonder what would have happened if, from an early age, he had been counseled with real, workable advice on how to improve his social skills. | /r/MensRights | 24/05/14 08:39 PM |

| 1 | "Shouted Down at Portland State"Devil is in the details, as your post implies. There's plenty of nuance to reject absolute "left" or "right" dichotomies. I'm OK with local minimum-wage legislation that is carefully thought-out, but blanket national proposals are a bad idea precisely because they ignore local nuance. Fracking is complex: I am sympathetic to the concerns of the affected communities (although note that the environmental costs often bring economic benefits, not that it necessarily justifies the suffering), and am … | /r/MensRights | 24/05/14 01:20 AM |
| 1 | "Shouted Down at Portland State"The conclusion I've come to is that progressive ideology, at its best, seems to lack an awareness of consequences, promoting policies that seem to do the right thing but will surely lead to poor outcomes. A good example is minimum wage. Of course I hate the fact that people are living in poverty, but anybody who understands basic economics knows that raising minimum wage, in absense of other polices to promote job growth, will simply diminish the pool of available jobs, making things overall wor… | /r/MensRights | 23/05/14 05:04 PM |
| 23 | Men are the romantic sexI'm not so sure that's a way out. I can't say for sure because I've never fallen in love with a woman and expected something like love in return, so I don't have a basis for comparison. But the idealistic "love" I thought was possible in my youth does not match the "love" I currently have. I respect my partner, enjoy his company, have a rapport with him, share core values, and we have decent sex. We're much better off with each other than alone. Maybe it's kind of like a brother with benefits. B… | /r/TheRedPill | 23/05/14 04:36 AM |

| 3 | Bisexual man with strong preference for men here. Just my two cents on why.Good. They respect your boundaries, which is what what I'm advocating: gay men respecting the boundaries of straight men. | /r/TheRedPill | 22/05/14 02:59 PM |
| 0 | Bisexual man with strong preference for men here. Just my two cents on why.I applaud your easy-going attitude, but I don't want my straight friends even having to subconsciously worry about it. When interacting with any man other than my partner, I put on my "straight man" hat and strictly limit sexual thoughts about other men. Yeah, sometimes I still do find myself admiring male beauty, but it's dangerous to let those thoughts go any further than admiration. | /r/TheRedPill | 22/05/14 02:58 PM |
| 3 | Can gay men successfully implement "blue pill" strategies?I've always thought guys in their 40s were the most attractive. I thought so when I was 16, and still do in my mid-40s. | /r/altTRP | 22/05/14 02:54 PM |
| 5 | Bisexual man with strong preference for men here. Just my two cents on why.Think about it from the perspective of a truly straight guy: you don't want to have to worry about your bros coming on to you, that fucks up the whole male-group dynamic. I guess I'm saying don't shit where you eat: if you're going to go hunting almost-straight dick, do it far away from your social circle. | /r/TheRedPill | 22/05/14 02:51 PM |
| 5 | Bisexual man with strong preference for men here. Just my two cents on why.I just visited r/altTRP and found a post about seducing straight men. I think that is part of the problem: straight guys worry about the sexual boundary being violated, and that interferes with the sandbox dynamic of male social groups. Gay men need to keep this in mind if we want to play in the sandbox: honor comes before sex. | /r/TheRedPill | 22/05/14 02:37 PM |
| 1 | Seducing Straight GuysI understand the motivation, but ultimately it's dishonorable. A trustworthy platonic male friend (straight or gay) is almost always more valuable than a sex partner. | /r/altTRP | 22/05/14 02:35 PM |
| 33 | Bisexual man with strong preference for men here. Just my two cents on why.Thanks. I'm a gay guy who's been here under different user names for awhile. A few reasons: (1) RP is as important for professional issues as it is for dating women; (2) masculine gay men are always perceived as more attractive than effeminate gay men. | /r/TheRedPill | 22/05/14 02:25 PM |

| 1 | Feminism – The Plutocracy’s LapdogThe real problem is that there was no economic compensation which enabled couples with two incomes to actually keep the economic windfall. House prices, transport, health care, child care and worst of all lower wages eat up 70-110% of the gains. The dynamics of economics practically ensures that this would happen once the labor pool doubled. I think it's a stretch to conclude that feminism was orchestrated by elites (although it's interesting to note, anecdotally, that Gloria Steinem was employe… | /r/MensRights | 21/05/14 03:20 PM |
| 7 | Interesting findings about how difficult it is to change politicized beliefsMost of the given examples (vaccines, GMO foods) are closely tied to issues of trusting authority. In short, anti-vaccine and anti-GMO positions (the latter which I hold) arise because the relevant institutions have appeared to squander their legitimacy. Once that happens, it is very hard to regain trust. For example, collusion between FDA and pharmaceutical corporations, as well as the well-known and well-documented aggressive tactics of (e.g.) Monsanto, render any future statements about the s… | /r/MensRights | 21/05/14 02:59 PM |

But one thing I have noticed of late is the inability of many LGBT advocates to see things from the opposite (i.e. conservative) perspective. Of course the same thing can be said of many conservatives, but there's an important difference: the rhetoric of cultural conservatives, even at its worst, relies on a fundamental conception of ones obligations to ones community, while the rhetoric of LGBT advocates rests fundamentally on assumed rights of the individual; so pound for pou… | /r/MensRights | 20/05/14 03:39 PM |
