Seriously, do you hear yourself? A guy who is a 5, maybe even a 6 is your proof that EVERY man can perform like that What do you think it MEANS to be a 5 or 6, man? That guy's average or higher; what is his story supposed to prove about the potential of the 1 out of every 10 men who is a 1? Or the 1 out of 100 men who's a 0.1? 1 out of 100 doctors might have an IQ of 100, but that doesn't in the slightest prove that someone with an IQ of 80 can make it; the numbers work out very much the same fo…

You can be a genuinely good person, but you still have to be willing to do things that will get you called an asshole, like deny favors, speak honestly, etc. Simply not giving women everything they ask for will often get you called an asshole

If someone doesn't like inflicting actual suffering on others, what could possibly be the problem with that? There's a genetically selected tendency towards altruism that you can overcome and repress if you want, but to what end? Why do things that you find repugnant?

If the end journey of improving your SMV is to become a 2, your efforts are probably better spent improving something else.

There's nothing deep about it; it's just a straightforward obvious fact. You can increase your standing to some degree. Let's say you can triple it (on some made-up scale). Well, you'd better start at at least a third of the way to attractiveness, then, because if you have even less than that, you'll triple your SMV, hit your limits, and still not be attractive. If you have high IQ but low everything else, then, yes, maybe you can try the money route. But it's certainly my impression that more m…

Predictor may not mean what you think it does. If you had to rank people from highest to lowest in things like longevity, income, and a few other things, and had to pick one piece of information to do it with, their IQ would do better than any other one thing you could pick

I could buy moving from a the-worst-out-of-10 guys (10th percentile) up to the 2nd best out of 10 guys. I get a little doubtful if you start out as the worst out of 1000 guys and think you can make it up into the best 25 of them. As your starting point becomes lower and lower, and your aim higher and higher, I doubt more and more you can really do it.

A few quotes from around Wikipedia. I'm not really great at research or anything, but this issue seems sufficiently clear that it doesn't take much to find out what is necessary: "Although the term first appeared in a 1964 paper by Michael Beldoch, it gained popularity in the 1995 book by that title, written by the author, psychologist, and science journalist Daniel Goleman.

Have you checked for both sides of the issue? I've heard both sides, and it's my understanding that IQ is much more predictive, and that EQ is basically useless. You'll find the same if you look it up, I'm sure

What you're describing is called "grit" in the literature, and is about 37% heritable: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26867111 It also cannot remotely overcome your other shortcomings. You can't grit your way into a physics PhD or the Olympics or even into reading if you don't have the IQ

Do you have any sources? The Wikipedia page on IQ suggests, as does every abstract I've seen on the subject, that IQ is the single strongest predictor of life success (SES coming in second). And it's also my understanding that EQ is swallowed up in IQ, making it pretty much useless as a measure

You need some for that, less for other things, more for other things. An average IQ is fine and can be buffed up by compensating with work or other talents, sure. If you have a below average IQ, say, maybe you're in the bottom 5% of the population, you'll struggle to do much of anything at all, though... :/

Most people who learn non-mainstream truths do so only in one area. They're not unusually right about things outside of that area. Like how scientists are no better at getting right answers than anybody else once they're outside the lab, or how atheists are almost as irrational as theists. To systematically find hidden truths in whatever area of life you choose requires that you take a step back and study truth-seeking. It's not enough to have discovered truth one time in one area.

It's really like the "women only see the men at the top of the hierarchy" thing, but for men, too. Maybe men aren't quite so narrow in their scope, but they still leave out the people at the bottom. "If you're retarded, you can always compete in the special olympics." If you think being retarded is as low as you can go, maybe that shows how low you look before you start ignoring people's existence. What about the average retarded person, who is not a special olympic-level athlete?

It takes work + steroids + genes. Without the genes, if all you've got is work + steroids, then you can get somewhere, but you can't get up to Arnold's level. The same applies to anything, physical performance, mental performance, social performance, etc.

You're talking about how all the above average people fight it out for the absolute top spot. Even the "losers" of that contest do well above average in life, even if they don't make the history books. The real people who lose out are the ones who were never in that top tier contest, or even in the mid tier contest.

Capacity for discipline and hard work are also heritable. And he had his quirks, like intensely enjoying the feeling of working out, and a good structural body shape, IQ, etc. The people at the very top work very hard, are genetically lucky, AND have to get lucky in life. There are plenty of people like them who don't make it just because of luck in life Of course, those people will still do pretty well for themselves, since they got genetically lucky and word hard, too.

Hooo boy, yes... Some people get the bad hand in genetics and then the bad hand in life, too. They've got it even worse off... For the majority who don't have it quite so bad, they really can achieve above average results with some hard work; I think that probably applies no matter what we're measuring. If it's not about riches or looks, maybe it's about happiness or something...which is about 50% heritable.

Yes, the natural genetic handicap usually balances out. But not always. It works out great for the moderately below average and higher. For people at the bottom...it's great for them to learn to do what they can. But we shouldn't sit up here and yell at them when it turns out they never really get anywhere.

This idea makes people uncomfortable, but they really already know it's true Like you said, you already know not everybody can reach the performance level of Arnold.

It's theoretically possible that Red Pill parents DO have long-term outcome effects on their children. No such effect appears in the research, but maybe there are so few RP parents that the effect they're having is being lost amid the statistical noise. Of course, most Blue Pill parents think they're making this big difference in their children's outcomes, at least, they do in the cultures where they're taught to think that way.

The studies I've been talking about (see documentary and book) suggest that parents don't really instill values. People mold their behavior to their environment. If being a jerk at home gets them what they want, then they'll be a jerk. If being a jerk at school makes the other kids dislike them, then they'll stop being a jerk. As an adult, this person will continue to change their behavior according to the norms of their environment. And whatever deviations they have from the immediate environme…

Dead on. We like being strong, we like sex and orgasms (even if we use condoms and it doesn't help our inclusive genetic fitness), we like being respected, etc. All things worth pursuing, then But our enjoyment is not why evolution made us like those things.

It's possible that the studies show no difference because most fathers don't do much for their children just by being around, sometimes playing with them, taking an interest, etc. Whatever the average father does. I also think it's possible that an exceptional father can have an actual impact, especially if they actually provide knowledge or skills to their children. Those things last even outside the home environment, and the studies seem to suggest that most parental effects only last as far a…

The research finds no long-term outcome changes for children whose father or parents are missing. This includes things like grades, college, degrees, income, happiness, drug use, criminal tendencies, etc. Are you thinking there are other outcomes that are affected?

/r/PurplePillDebate05/07/17 10:47 AM

It sounds like we're saying that 80% of men are indeed below average attractiveness to women. I get the breakdown of why that is, which is useful and insightful. At the end of the day, perhaps for good reason, I suppose, women don't find the average man attractive, or even an above average man way up around the 80th percentile. It's my understanding that men do not do the same thing. Women are also getting fatter in America, but men rate the average woman as average, if I understand the study.

I actually asked for evidence for that idea twice; didn't get a single response to that question, either I just found a PPD post which found that men and women both cheat or divorce more on the basis of having had past sexual partners What I am curious about is what the female love experience is like, and how they feel towards friends. I realized that there's no reason that they should completely match the male experience of those two things

It's my impression that a "good man" is one who treats women special. A man who refuses to do anything extra for a woman will be seen as less good, ie, an asshole To me, the point is more that you have to act in the way that's going to get you called an asshole, ie, you have to be fair rather than biased towards women.

I know that, I was wondering if we knew that that was because of the effect on pair-bonding, or if that was just speculation
/r/askTRP24/06/17 03:07 AM

So...here, pair bonding refers to her ability to recognize that she's in a fairly equitable arrangement. Having lots of sexual partners makes a woman think her commitment-level value is higher than it is, hence it makes it hard for her to be happy in a committed relationship with someone at her level.

Wouldn't she know she could do better if she dated or attracted men without ever actually having sex with them? I mean, and that's assuming she can't just tell even without dating. Wouldn't she have a pretty good idea of whom she could have sex with just walking around ordinary life?

I'm of two minds in this area.

Maybe you really could say something nice about a girl's personality and have it come across not as trying to make her like you, if you said it in the right way.

Thanks, man. The book seems great so far, describes very well the kind of woman I had in mind I've been over Rollo's stuff. I'm just still getting everything sorted.

I think the arousing vs like dichotomy might be helpful here. How you were raised will have minimal effect on what arouses you, as it would have little effect on anyone, man or woman. Emotions are largely instinctual and difficult to change, if possible at all. You might like all sorts of people, of course, but that's not the point

Our relationship is a tad unusual. As I said, I think she might be trying to plead her own exceptionalism, but it seems likely that the actual ideas she's explaining are true. If they were lies, it would be amazing that they happened to match TRP concepts. There is one truth, and many ways to lie. You can have independent verification of ideas if there is communication between the two sources, like if she read TRP stuff and decided to pretend it was true, but I don't think that's what happened, …

Excellent point. Seems to follow the trend of considered attractive, rich, non-productive outside of entertainment...

I don't know much there. Just be careful not to have it ruin you.

So, status comes from your personality, your social circle, your appearance and manner, and your pre-selection (which mates have signaled your value by being with you). To go up, go piece by piece. Go for a girl just a little out of your league, a girl with higher status than you. Before you try to date her, up your status in the other areas so that she might consider you. Once you're with a girl, that sets a minimum for your own status, and you can push the window a little more with a higher st…
