Depo is the devil! Seriously, I only had one shot of it and I never went back for my second dose after 3 months. Awful side effects.

Exactly!

I could definitely use a thorough friend-cleanup. Unfortunately I think I may end up losing long-time friends over this IRL, as petty as that sounds. My college roommate, who I still keep in close touch with on Facebook, is the most egregious violator I know when it comes to calling people out. She has turned into the stereotypical super-feminist, complete with burned bra, firey red hair (so she can be like Sylvia Plath and eat men like air, I'm not even kidding), and half-shaved head. She posts…

I've considered taking a break from it due to election stress and whatnot, but I really do use it to keep in touch with so many people (in positive ways). I would hate to lose that.

I haven't read that, but just based on the title it is 100% up my alley. I struggle immensely with feelings of guilt, and those definitely pop up when I'm in the midst of a social media shitstorm (or IRL shitstorm) involving call-out culture types. It doesn't help that I agree with a lot of what those people have to say when it comes down to core issues - it's the approach and aggressiveness that is so off putting. I will definitely be looking into that book. Thanks!

It would be one thing if the calling-out was respectful, polite, logical, and well-sourced, but it's typically vitriolic and hateful. YES!!! I typically really enjoy a discussion with differing viewpoints, but not if the person talking to me is being a condescending jerk. I see that a lot lately on posts about Black Lives Matter or the election - pretty much anything racism or sexism related. Just because someone has never been confronted with their specific form of privilege and has never had t…

I would love to hear some thoughts on the article if anyone feels so inclined. I read it last night and haven't been able to get it out of my head. I've been feeling so frustrated this past year or so when I engage with some people over social media. Recently on Facebook I was called a shitty person and told I'm a hateful misogynist who supports victim blaming just because I asked to see an article from a credible source in regards to accusations of Jared Leto being a rapist. If the person had t…

I love the way you put this! It's like exercise. I don't do it because I love the way my lungs burn and the way I sweat my face off when I'm doing cardio, but I do love the rush of endorphins I get from it.

Mind if I pick your brain for a second? I have a recurring (and relevant to this conversation) situation that I could use some perspective on. My husband really hates to do housework, which I get. I don't mind doing most of it (tidying, cleaning, organizing), but for 4 years it has been his job to take out the trash. The reasoning behind this is that we live in a townhouse complex where the dumpster is about 100 yards away, so it's a lot easier for my husband to carry the trash than it is for me…

I get sucked into that mindset sometimes too! I have to remind myself that my husband is an entirely separate person from me who has his own agenda, his own goals, his own wants and needs, etc. And most of those things don't revolve around me (to my dismay, at times :P). I like your comments. They resonate with me quite often!

That sounds glorious. Secretly I'd love to hole up for the two most hormonal days of my month (it's usually short lived thankfully) and have my own hormonal party where the only person I annoy is me. Hahaha

Hmm, curious why you suggest less caffeine. Just because it can cause irritability in general?

I have some B6 laying around, so maybe I will try that next month because those mood swings sound just like mine!

Yes!!! Everyone needs a rant buddy. Mine lives across the country and we chat on Facebook throughout the day. She has saved me from hamstering myself into oblivion many times ;) hahaha

Lucky for my husband, I often take out my frustration with him in sexual ways, because by the end of it all I feel lovey and close to him again. What would we do without oxytocin?! Mix that with some Motrin and that oughta solve all life's problems :)
/r/RedPillWives07/09/16 02:53 PM

It's more than just physical pain for me, as there isn't much of that besides some bloating. It's mostly extreme hamstering, or I will generally be disconnected from my husband without even realizing it - kind of spacey and just "off." I don't even lash out at him necessarily, but he's very in tune with me so when I'm not as lovey and open as usual I think it affects his mood (obviously). I truly believe it's hormonal. Of course that doesn't mean I can't do something about it. Stress relief meth…

Good call! I am only one cycle off birth control, but I have already been surprised by how on track my body seems. It's entirely possible that I've just not been paying enough attention all this time, at least not since pregnancy anyway (I stopped getting awful cramps with my period after I had my daughter 3 years ago, wooo!).

Yeah I'm not hardcore enough to drink anything unsweetened, so no worries there. :P

Yes, I'm thinking stress relieving activities are going to be my saving grace! A lot of people have commented telling me I just need to STFU, which is obviously the end goal, but I need to make sure I'm letting go and not just bottling when I am shutting up, you know? That's a very important distinction for me, or it will all boil over at some point.

I just got a very Looney Tunes type image in my head of Sylvester Cat with his fists clenched pacing all angry. Hahaha! I love it.

Yeah that actually sounds quite lovely!
/r/RedPillWives07/09/16 02:19 PM

I had to laugh at this because that's what happens to me when I manage to STFU. I'll STFU all week and then suddenly all hell breaks loose and I end up having a mini meltdown - sometimes in the presence of my husband, sometimes not. Either way, though, it's draining. I think the most helpful thing for me is to implement stress relieving activities throughout the week so when I STFU it's not bottling, it's just letting go.

Maybe you're misunderstanding my post. I'm not trying to make excuses for my behavior at all here. I'm recognizing my behavior (which is mostly just me being standoffish and in an irritable mood instead of my usual fun and cheery self), and I'm trying to gather some new tools for handling it in a more appropriate way, because lately I've been struggling to get a good handle on it. I went off birth control, so I'm still acclimating to that hormone change, as well. So yeah, definitely not trying t…

Oh totally, I know it's not fair to make someone else's life a living hell because I'm feeling moody. Which is why I'm here to see how other women handle this issue, because while I don't make his life hell (that was more for comedic value in the OP), I am definitely on edge and it shows. I just started tracking because we are trying to conceive, so I'm hoping this will help with my awareness. I probably should have mentioned my cycles are often irregular even on birth control, so sometimes I do…

Isolation would really help. I have more introverted tendencies when I am hormonal like that. That will get easier when we move though...currently in a pretty small townhouse where it's tough to get space. I may need to just take extra commute time or go out for a walk/run for isolation.

I haven't, but that sounds like a tea I could learn to enjoy (I'm more of a coffee person usually). I will put it on my shopping list and give it a try!

Haha well I know that's the idea, but I struggle with that so much through the hormonal hamstering and irrational thought processes. I'm looking for tools to help me STFU. Another commenter suggested running for the endorphins, which seems like something that could really help in my situation. Sometimes I have too much steam to keep it all in and I forget there are productive ways to work that off.

Good idea! I used to run quite a bit, but I exchanged that for lifting lately. Nothing beats the endorphin high from a good run, though! Doing this next time around.

I'm not saying I'm having tantrums. I have some amount of self control. I guess what happens is I snap at him without even realizing it sometimes. I try to be self aware, but it's more difficult when I'm moody, because I don't have an accurate perspective on my own emotions. So sometimes it gets to a point that my husband has to ask why I'm being so short with him, when I didn't even realize I was short with him to begin with. Telling me, "Be more self-aware and get over it" isn't really helpful…

I have a much harder time getting over myself and shutting the hell up when I'm PMSing. My moods are almost a compulsion. I say almost, because I know I do have control, but my emotions boil out and overflow so much easier. It's hard to put into words.

Very interesting! Do you mind telling me a bit more about the before/after from when you started taking it? As it is, my cycles are regular, but I really am a PMS beast.

Thanks for giving me some more to think about and pointing me toward that video. I'm excited for some down time to delve into it all a bit deeper.

Thanks for your thorough response! I really appreciate the dialogue and your respectfulness with everything as I kind of float down my thought river over here :) You've given me a lot to think about. My intent is definitely not to force any sort of feminism down anyone's throat. Had we been talking a year ago or even a few months ago, I probably would have been evangelizing you with it, I won't lie. But I've come to a place where to me, feminism is also the belief that other women are free to do…

I was under the impression RPW was more against modern, third wave, fucking crazy ass feminism. Like the kind of feminism where we don't even look at facts before believing an accuser that so-and-so is a rapist and we must shout it from the rooftops before he is given due process. But when it comes to more second-wave feminism, from what I've read anyway, RPW doesn't seem to take much issue. I mean second wave is basically just about believing women are autonomous humans and able to make our own…

At the risk of sounding like a general dumbass myself, can you give me more information about why the whole "you don't have to be anti-feminist" thing was/is seen as so wrong/unwelcome? I'm a reformed third-wave feminist, but I still definitely consider myself a feminist - I just don't embrace such a hardcore, extreme brand of feminism anymore. I'm more on board with the less harsh, more feminine-friendly sects of feminist belief...like a 1990s feminist, for lack of a better explanation. But I f…

It's the pickup artistry side of it that just...doesn't sit well with me. It seems so unbearably manipulative. Within the context of a relationship I do see some of that working on me in terms of the concept of "dread" and being more willing to go the extra mile sexually because my husband goes the extra mile for me in terms of his leadership style, but I think I'd be really put off encountering those tactics in casual dating or just getting to know someone.

Ugh, gross. I'm sorry that happened to you. The thing that changed my mind about RP theory in general is that it takes a good man to have a successful RP relationship with. And last I checked, any man good enough for me is going to respect me enough not to fuck around behind my back. But, of course, that respect needs to be maintained and earned by me, by being worthy of respect in the first place. It all seems very cyclical, but in a positive, continuous growth kind of way.

I have to say, the fact that the women around here are totally comfortable calling out TRP (the sub) for its bullshit makes me feel so much better about acclimating to this community. I had previously been turned off by this community (well, redpillwomen anyway) for YEARS until I realized the women's side of the coin is a lot less...abrasive? destructive? than straight up TRP. Now i like to browse /r/marriedredpill every once in a while for a more grounded, respectful male opinion (although some…

Shit, I'd say coming home to two hours of alone time is about the softest landing there is! That's pretty much my life dream, but not possible because I pick up our daughter from daycare after work 4/5 days. Maybe you could leave him a sweet note on his computer when you leave for the day? Or set the coffee pot to brew right as he gets home? Or pre-package a little snack for him for after work?

I wear two rings - my wedding ring on my left hand and a vintage-looking silver ring with my daughter's birthstone on my right. Oddly enough, the one with the birthstone makes me think of my husband the most because he gave it to me for our first wedding anniversary, so it seems extra special. He also likes to bring home fancy company pens that always seem to end up in my purse. These pens have saved my ass more than once for work (I'm a journalist).

That's a perfect analogy actually! I love that. I've definitely wrestled with the whole idea of captain/first-mate because it's easy to view that as a first place/second place type deal, but what you wrote more accurately describes my feelings on the whole thing. I've been fighting for control of the relationship-ship for a long time because I felt like that was what I should do as a feminist, but when I'm honest with myself I'd much rather play the supporting role, especially since I'm busy bei…

As someone who is very new to RPWi and also new to embracing the female version of the red pill itself, I really appreciate this post. Perhaps this is a taboo stance to take here, but I do consider myself a feminist. So when a friend sent me here and suggested I swallow the pill, I thought she was crazy. I also wondered how the women here could stand to admit to themselves that their man is better than them. While my husband certainly excels in some areas I don't, and while he's incredibly capab…

So the girl tells him she wants to take it slower, and your reaction is to do the opposite and touch her all over telling her how horny you are? Have you ever heard of something called consent? Spare this poor girl, OP, and go find the slut you clearly desire.
