| 6 | How to afford being a SAHM?Make more money or spend less. It can definitely be done depending on the sacrifices you are willing to make as a family. There is no right or wrong answer of course. Make more: He can seek promotions or extra hours/OT at work (obviously depends on his field and other factors), he can get a second job, you can get a part-time and/or remote job (work evenings while he watches kids, work online teaching English or tutoring or anything besides an MLM, work weekends, flip things on eBay). You can na… | /r/RedPillWomen | 30/10/20 11:34 PM |
| 3 | Barefoot and Pregnant in the KitchenCongratulations! Just want to say that even if your husband isn't feeling connected during pregnancy doesn't mean he's going to be disconnected after birth or a horrible father. I was super worried during my pregnancy because my husband didn't seem to find it as "real" as I did. He was afraid of being a horrible father and taking on so much responsibility. Anyway, as soon as the baby came out he was totally obsessed and is an amazing father. I don't have any advice but just wanted to share my ex… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/07/20 01:16 AM |
| 3 | The most important parenting book I've readI enjoyed this book and others by him. In the same vein, for those who are interested with kids - Hold on to Your Kids by Mate and Neufeld, How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk, and The Collapse of Parenting and Boys Adrift by Leonard Sax. For younger kids, I also love the Montessori Toddler by Simone Davies, Being There by Erica Komisar, Rest Play Grow by Deborah MacNamara, and RIE resources and books by Janet Lansbury. | /r/RedPillWomen | 03/06/20 07:18 PM |
| 2 | Life after having a babySorry to hear you are struggling with this. It's such a challenge trying to manage a little one (especially with feeding issues) and your marriage and house and everything else. It takes time for your hormones to level out after birth and breastfeeding, so don't feel rushed to get back to normal right away. You're not getting sleep, your body is still recovering, plus you have hormones still going crazy. It sucks but just try to give yourself grace and recognize it won't always be like this when… | /r/RedPillWomen | 21/05/20 11:25 AM |
| 3 | Career ChangeYou're welcome! I'm glad you found it encouraging. | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/04/20 02:20 PM |
| 8 | Career ChangeI'm an engineer in a male-dominated industry. Here are some random thoughts I hope you (and other potential STEM young ladies) find helpful. STEM careers with flexible work and great benefits do exist and it's possible to have a good work-life balance. Yes you can be the ball-busting STEM HBIC if you want, but you don't have to. You could also be the woman who has a baby, takes 6 months off paid and another 6 unpaid with full benefits, and then comes back part-time two days a week. Like me :) No… | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/04/20 01:02 PM |
| 68 | Do you find that insecure men have a problem with "confident" women?Honestly I don't see a lot of truly secure and balanced women end up with insecure men. If a woman has self-respect, is confident in who she is and her needs in a relationship, and is willing to walk away...usually she does because insecure men aren't on her level. Just my experience. | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/04/20 10:31 PM |
| 1 | Mamas, if you had a difficult first baby, did it affect how you felt about having more children?Do what you need to do, and if you decide you just want one kid, that's okay. Be patient with yourself as you focus on your healing and caring for your child. It's not easy. Just to share my story, I had a baby who was awful. Cried nonstop, feeding problems that sound similar to your child's, feeding specialist and pediatric gastroenterologist, milk allergy, colic, NICU stay at a week old, etc. I was devastated. My husband and I seriously discussed only having one child because we were just exha… | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/12/19 03:17 AM |
| 1 | Higher your SMVJust want to add that Latisse can potentially change your eye color, especially if not used as directed. It can increase brown pigment and literally turn your blue or hazel or green eyes more brown. I really wanted to try it but was scared about that potential side effect. From their website: LATISSE® use may cause increased brown iris pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is likely to be permanent. While very infrequent, increased iris pigmentation has occurred when LATISSE® solutio… | /r/RedPillWomen | 10/07/19 03:50 PM |
| 1 | attractive after babiesYou are so welcome! I started doing Pilates when I was pregnant because my doctor recommended it, and I am so glad I did. It was really a game changer for me. I feel stronger and happier with my body since I started. | /r/RedPillWomen | 10/07/19 03:44 PM |
| 6 | attractive after babiesWell I guess I will take a stab since no one else has commented. I have only had one baby but am currently going through a similar problem. I'm not over it yet, but here is what is working for me. Getting in shape. Lose that last 10 pounds (I know it's hard!) and you will feel better. When you go to the gym, make sure you aren't just running on a treadmill. Do core exercises, lift weights. Maybe yoga or Pilates. It makes a huge difference! Focus on you. I know it's hard to find time, but do your… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/07/19 08:35 PM |
| 2 | How to overcome perfectionism as a homemaker & mother?This might not be helpful, but I overcame my perfectionism and anxiety by failing. I decided to pursue a challenging major at university, and even though I never made anything but an A in my life, I found myself in a position where I had pushed myself to the limits and yet still was making some B's and C's. And you know what? It was okay. I ended up with a decent grade point average, got a great job, and now nobody cares about my grade in a college class years ago. I had to experience not being … | /r/RedPillWomen | 01/04/19 07:03 PM |
| 4 | How to cook good meals for husband and family with limited time?I'm sure I will repeat some of what others have said, but below are the things that work for me. Meal planning - Have a plan for the week. Stick to it. That way you know what you're having and can hit the ground running when you get home. Kitchen organization - Keep everything organized and easy to find. Nothing sucks more than digging for that one sauce or spice in the back of a pantry, or thinking you are out of something because you couldn't find it. Always have basics stocked up. Crock pot -… | /r/RedPillWomen | 22/03/19 06:41 PM |
| 12 | What is red pill woman view on dating outside your race?It's important to find someone with similar values and principles because that is what makes you compatible for life. Many times this ends up being someone from the same race as you because people from the same race are more likely to share socioeconomic status, religion, and other factors that determine one's belief system. Not to say that mixed race couples can't thrive, but in general it is less likely compared to couples of the same race. No matter the race of the individual you date, vettin… | /r/RedPillWomen | 21/03/19 02:31 PM |
| 9 | Will being vegan/vegetarian affect my relationships and MMV?I'm vegan and, while this is just my personal experience, most men I've met think it is sweet and endearing (assuming you're not militant about it). They have also appreciated the health focus I have that factored into the decision. With my husband now, I will typically make a meat entree with sides and veggies for me. So I might marinate some chicken for my husband, but grill it alongside some veggies and also make rice and other things we will both eat. It hasn't been an issue at all for us. | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/11/18 09:16 PM |
| 12 | How much SMV can you realisticly recover after having children?Not to be negative, but this is just simply not true for many women. A woman's body goes through many changes during pregnancy, and even if someone puts on an appropriate amount of weight and then loses it, there are still lasting impacts. This can include stretch marks, loose skin around the stomach, abdominal separation, changes in breast and nipple size and shape, wider hips, new moles and skin tags, sexual impacts, and more. And those are just the physical changes. Many men and women also st… | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/11/18 02:13 PM |
| 1 | How to deal with negative emotions.What works for me is forcing myself to see the other perspective or play devil's advocate to whatever I am thinking or feeling. It took a while to get into that habit, but now I automatically go there as soon as I start getting emotional. For instance, last week a coworker stood me up for a meeting she set up where I would help her with a huge favor. I instantly got mad when she was late - I was nice enough to help her and she can't even be bothered to show up! Then I thought through how there a… | /r/RedPillWomen | 01/10/18 12:45 AM |
| 3 | I’d like to handle my MIL in a RPW way, how???Sounds like my MIL. I just smile and laugh when she says hateful, ridiculous and/or inappropriate things. Husband handles all real interactions and family-related events and decisions. She and I are not close and will never be close (her choice) and I just respect her enough to not try to force anything. I get her mother's day gifts, send her holiday cards, am always very friendly, etc. out of service to my husband. Also I recommend discussing with your SO how you will manage some of the family … | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/09/18 06:10 PM |
| 2 | What should I choose between boyfriend and university?You keep saying this, but it doesn't mean you will never have a boyfriend. I personally did not date anyone until I was 21...now am happily married to a husband who loves and supports me. These things can take time, and that's okay. Just focus on taking care of yourself in the meantime and working towards your education and increasing your RMV/SMV. | /r/RedPillWomen | 05/09/18 10:02 PM |
| 9 | Music that gets you in a feminine mindset?A lot of 50s and 60s female singers are great for this (Peggy Lee - It's a Good Day, Lesley Gore - Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows, Brenda Lee - Ain't That Love). Motown can be fun too (I Second That Emotion - Smokey Robinson, the Shoop Shoop Song - Betty Everettt), some divas (Mariah Carey - Always Be My Baby, How Will I Know - Whitney Houston), folk acoustic music like She & Him or Ingrid Michaelson (Be OK). | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/09/18 02:28 PM |
| 2 | How to gracefully receive gifts from your captain that you aren't crazy aboutSounds like you accepted the gift graciously and have the right attitude so that's awesome. I always try to compliment what I do like about any questionable gifts to help steer him in the right direction in the future. I also compliment what I do like about gifts I loved and bring them up even after they have been gifted. For example, my husband got me a really thoughtful reference book (sounds boring but it was the perfect gift lol). When I am using it I will mention how great it is, or how it … | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/09/18 12:15 PM |
| 4 | My Boyfriend lied about his past...This would be really concerning to me. Like others have said, lying in itself isn't necessarily a deal breaker. But there are a lot of other red flags here - repeatedly lying about the same thing over an extended period of time, not sharing it with you eventually on his own (sounds like you found out another way, I could be mistaken), not owning up to it and apologizing, etc. I don't know the nature of your relationship or if he has lied in other areas but it would definitely make me reconsider … | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/09/18 12:02 PM |
| 6 | Riding the LTR cargo train, or: modern dating in your early 20'sThanks for writing this. You bring up a lot of good points. I will add that think it's good to be clear when starting a relationship that your goal is to get married in X years. Not necessarily on the first date lol but early enough on that you can remove yourself from the relationship if your timelines don't align before you get hurt. I know a girl who dated a nice guy for 7 years. She just assumed they would get married. He just assumed they were having a good time in their 20s. They are both … | /r/RedPillWomen | 28/07/18 05:04 PM |
| 5 | Riding the LTR cargo train, or: modern dating in your early 20'sTotally agree with the idea to only date men who are vetting for marriage. However, there are some men in their middle 20s who are vetting for marriage and some older men who are not. I just don't think there can be a hard and fast rule regarding age, and each suitor and relationship just has to be independently evaluated. | /r/RedPillWomen | 28/07/18 04:48 PM |
| 11 | Where to find a man? XDWork, school, or related activities like conferences. Through friends, family, or friends of friends. At church or other religious activities. Community activities and volunteer work. Physical activities like meet-ups, the gym, or rock climbing gyms. Alumni events or meet-ups in your area. I would also add that as you are vetting men, be open to the idea that, as a 23F, you might meet some 23M who have potential they have not yet reached. Not saying to compromise on deal breakers like desire for… | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/07/18 04:33 PM |
| 2 | Is this normal in the US?I would be very concerned because this plan does not seem well thought out. A degree in physics is not very useful (in terms of obtaining employment) unless you have a PhD or a special skill set within the field. Taking extensive loans out while living in an expensive area with no concrete plan to obtain improved employment sounds like a bad idea. Not to say you can't get a good job with a physics degree, just that the odds are not as high for this particular STEM degree as most people would thi… | /r/RedPillWomen | 21/06/18 05:29 PM |
| 3 | When your captain can't drive (literally)?I was in a similar situation when my husband moved to the city we now live in. He grew up in a very small town and did minimal driving there, and then walked everywhere in college. So when he graduated and moved to a big city suburb and had to drive everywhere, it was terrifying for him and for me as the passenger. We started off with me driving everywhere, except he drove himself to work and back because, well, he had to. Then as he got more comfortable with driving (like months later) he start… | /r/RedPillWomen | 17/06/18 07:30 PM |

| 6 | “Whatever you think is best” really worksI know in the Surrendered Wife, Laura is big on using that specific phrase. I have found mixing it up gets the same idea across without sounding robotic. So for example if he asks me what I want to do for dinner, I might say something like... What are you thinking? What are your thoughts? Whatever you think is best! Whatever you want! Whatever you think, I trust you babe. However you want to handle it! I'm down for whatever you're thinking. What did you have in mind? I'm good with whatever you t… | /r/RedPillWomen | 10/05/18 01:45 AM |
| 14 | “Whatever you think is best” really worksSo glad that worked out and you guys are off to a great start to your marriage! I'll add a warning from my own personal experience...after reading the Surrendered Wife I started using this one, too. It worked great until my husband noticed the pattern. Now it really annoys him when I say it. He doesn't mind me trusting him to make choices, but just saying the exact same phrase sounds uninterested and robotic to him and he really hates it. Whoops lol. So maybe try to mix it up. Enjoy the rest of … | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/05/18 05:48 PM |
| 5 | What is your experience with age differences between partners?I know quite a few people who married older (10-20 years difference) and the common theme is it's great until it isn't. Obviously I am generalizing and each relationship is unique, but it seems like a lot of the women really like the setup until the husband gets older, slows down, requires care, and eventually dies leaving them alone for the next 20 years. Say the woman is 25 and man is 40. When she is 45 and the first kids are leaving the house, he is already 60. Men tend to die younger than wo… | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/05/18 01:27 PM |
| 2 | What are your tips on managing working full time while doing all the housework/cooking?So my husband and I both work full time, and I take care of cooking and cleaning almost entirely. He will take care of the cleaning things that require lots of scrubbing, will unload the dishwasher occasionally, etc. but otherwise it's almost all on me. We don't have a maid or anything and I work and commute 50+ hours each week. With that being said, he also has his responsibilities to contribute to the household. He takes on home maintenance, lawn maintenance, car maintenance, dog duties, does … | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/05/18 12:14 PM |
| 3 | Are my physical requirements for my captain unrealistic and superficial?Just a few comments. Have you ever actually dated someone a foot taller than you? It's actually a pretty big inconvenience. You have to stand on your toes to kiss him and probably still don't reach, sex can be a logistical challenge, you look odd together unless you're in tall heels, etc. My husband is only 8" taller than me and I still feel like this every time we go out. Also, how a guy is built makes a huge difference in terms of how "tall" he looks. My guy has long legs with broad shoulders … | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/04/18 09:14 PM |
