| 1 | Time Capsule Letters!I think you were referring to /u/tplg, not me. She was the one who wrote about a cat in her time-capsule letter. :) | /r/RedPillWives | 12/07/17 04:47 PM |
| 1 | Grati-WednesdayCongratulations dixie!!! | /r/RedPillWives | 08/07/17 03:01 PM |
| 1 | Grati-WednesdayI am grateful for all the rain lately. The garden has been thriving! I am grateful to my husband for picking up a flower from our backyard when coming back from work to gift it to me. <3 I am grateful that my husband can work from home one day per week. | /r/RedPillWives | 08/07/17 03:00 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful my husband decided to buy a scythe to replace our now defunct lawnmower. It works really well, and frankly...he looks really hot when he is scything the lawn! I am grateful for plant tie-wraps. I am grateful for the long weekend (it's Canada Day tomorrow). | /r/RedPillWives | 30/06/17 05:40 PM |
| 3 | Free Friday F8ckery :)It was a bright and sunny day........ | /r/RedPillWives | 30/06/17 04:58 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful that my husband is willing to use a scythe rather than a lawnmower from now on (our lawnmower died very recently). Men using scythes to mow the lawn are so incredibly sexy imo! I am grateful that our garden is flourishing! I am grateful that our dog wakes me up early to go do her business outside. When I manage to stay awake after that, it allows me to enjoy the sunrise. BONUS: This ice cream recipe. Incredibly easy to make, and it has been such a success in my family that my fathe… | /r/RedPillWives | 24/06/17 10:04 AM |
| 12 | A French Take on Feminism | Notes From a Red Pill GirlSavage and brilliant. French speaker here. The subtitles are actually very mild compared to the words she uses in French. For instance, at 0:52, what she says in French would be better translated as "The truth is, you are tacky feminists." It was a very good speech. To the point and savage, yet not rude enough for anyone to dismiss it as 'being a temper tantrum'. Well done. | /r/RedPillWives | 20/06/17 05:57 PM |
| 3 | GratituesdayI am grateful to have such a tight-knit group of friends who are ready to help each other whenever needed. I am grateful for my husband's ingenuity. His ways of solving problems are very creative! He manages to use objects in ways I would never think of! I am grateful for mosquito-repelling plants. | /r/RedPillWives | 15/06/17 03:06 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful to my neighbours for letting our dog out when we are away for many hours at a time. I am grateful for the comfortable weather we have these days. I am grateful to my husband for offering to chop onions for me. | /r/RedPillWives | 02/06/17 06:00 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful to the employee at the plant nursery for giving me a ton of useful advice about gardening, as well as being so hilarious and cracking jokes all the time. I am grateful to my husband for mowing the lawn. I love gardening and landscaping, but mowing the lawn is my least favourite thing to do. I am grateful for my husband's barbecue cooking skills. | /r/RedPillWives | 21/05/17 02:40 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful my husband has amazing "real-life Tetris" skills. His storage optimization game is top notch. I am grateful our dog is learning basic commands quickly and is eager to please. She is such a sweetheart! I am grateful for the nice weather these days. I like rain but a bit of sunshine from time to time is nice as well! BONUS: Cold cuts and veggies, or a frozen pizza. | /r/RedPillWives | 12/05/17 02:23 PM |

| 5 | A Great Point About The Concept Of "Love Languages"When I demand that people speak my preferred love language, when it becomes the one way I receive love, I unnecessarily narrow my experience of love. I miss out on all of those “exquisite forms of love that do not ‘speak my language’. This is the part that stood out for me. How true it is! I appreciate knowing about my husband's preferred love language in order to make him feel loved in a very profound way for him, especially when he's going through a rough patch because of sickness, work, etc. … | /r/RedPillWives | 06/05/17 05:10 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful that my husband loves our new dog so much. Seeing him pet the dog, interact with her and look at her with so much love and tenderness in his eyes makes my heart melt every time. I am grateful that our dog stopped howling at night. She's a rescue and had a rough life, we believe she has PTSD, so during the first few days she was freaking out at night. We give her some stuff to calm her anxiety, and it seems to help. I am grateful for my new thatching rake. It works really well, and … | /r/RedPillWives | 06/05/17 04:35 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful my husband can sometimes work from home. Even if we do not interact much while he works, we can snuggle or talk for a few minutes when he takes a break. I am grateful that the snow is finally gone, now I can start gardening and landscaping! I am grateful for windy days. So great to aerate the house! Bonus: Tap water, from our artesian well. | /r/RedPillWives | 30/04/17 05:37 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful to my husband for being grateful. I know it sounds circular, but hearing his words of appreciation makes my heart melt every single time. I am grateful that the snow is almost gone. I'm getting fidgety, I want to start my garden! I am grateful that my friend said I'm a good listener. BONUS: Countryside. I lived in the city for far too long. I like visiting the city from time to time, but I like living in a remote place. As for suburbs, it feels to me like the worst choice. You don'… | /r/RedPillWives | 22/04/17 01:07 AM |

| 2 | GratituesdayI'm grateful to my husband for being my rock during the week before one of our rats went to the Rainbow Bridge. It was a very difficult week for both of us, but if he hadn't been there, I wouldn't have coped as well. I am grateful that the snow is melting. Don't get me wrong, I love snow. But in the middle of April, I want to start preparing my garden, NOT shovel snow. I am grateful to my friend for offering me to write to each other via snail mail. We write to each other daily on Whatsapp, but … | /r/RedPillWives | 13/04/17 04:46 PM |
| 1 | It Is Possible To Say "Thank You" Too Many Times!Oh, right, I admit that acts of service are the hardest ones to do while feeling unwell... Maybe there are acts of service that don't require too much physical effort? I know my husband loves it when I do online research for him. But if you being unwell includes a headache, then yes, there's not much that can be done... | /r/RedPillWives | 10/04/17 04:05 PM |
| 2 | It Is Possible To Say "Thank You" Too Many Times!But the more intentional you are with how often you express gratitude (and your method) the more weight it will hold. Actually, I would advise using several methods, especially those based on your SO's love language! | /r/RedPillWives | 09/04/17 06:12 AM |

| 1 | GratituesdayI am grateful for my husband's balance between a very stoic attitude and a goofy one. He is serious when needed, but still manages to be hilarious! I am grateful that our life is so peaceful and uneventful. A few people have been telling me of their problems recently and that made me realize how perfect my life is. I am grateful to my MIL, who bought me some products for my skin at her beautician. I know I mentioned it last week too, but I've been using them steadily since then and they truly wo… | /r/RedPillWives | 01/04/17 01:32 PM |

| 6 | I feel like a provider in my relationshipHe wants to eventually marry me, at least he tells me so. He just doesn't think it's necessary now as we're happy living together without it. This way marriage seems only problematic. Honestly, why would he marry you? Currently he has all (or at least most of) the benefits of marriage without having the legal burden of it. There is absolutely no incentive for him to get married. | /r/RedPillWives | 29/03/17 01:49 AM |
| 3 | How Do You Learn To Be A Homemaker?Where I live younger people can volunteer to keep company to the elderly who are lonely. Two people are paired, and they usually see each other once a week. That could be a great way to learn about homemaking skills while helping an elderly person be entertained! | /r/RedPillWives | 27/03/17 02:42 PM |
| 1 | GratituesdayI'm grateful that my husband is such an ingenious and crafty person. He managed to find a solution that avoided permanently damaging the cupboards. I'm grateful for my MIL, who decided to gift me some high-quality products from her beautician after I asked her questions about my skin problems. I'm grateful that my husband's work allow him to work from home when there is bad weather. Bonus: Autumn is my favourite season! The coloured leaves, the cooler weather, the rain, the food...

| 13 | "My Husband Is Not Romantic" - Great Post About Letting Go Of Expectations And Accepting Your Man!If your husband is afraid to tell you things, it's because you bite his head off when he does. Exactly. It's quite paradoxical that nowadays' relationships motto is "communication is important", but women react so badly when men try to open communication channels that they just stop doing it at one point. Communication should not be an uphill battle, but shrews definitely turn it into one. | /r/RedPillWives | 20/03/17 06:16 PM |

I have two (both male), and I'm having a lot of fun with them already. YAY RATS!!!

| 12 | SHIT POST SATURDAY - March 11, 2017Recently I learned that the crazy cat lady from the Simpsons actually was a career-driven feminist before having a nervous breakdown and becoming the insane crazy cat lady. When she was eight, Eleanor Abernathy was a smart and ambitious young girl who wanted to be both a lawyer and a doctor "because a woman can do anything". She was studying for law school at 16, and by 24, she had earned an MD from Harvard Medical School and a JD from Yale Law School. However, by 32, suffering from burnout, she… | /r/RedPillWives | 11/03/17 08:58 PM |

When he was at his former job, he would come home quite depressed, but now when he comes back home he tells me about the stuff he's been doing at work and some funny stories about his colleagues. It's so refreshing to see him and hear him so cheerful! I am grateful that my stepbrother decided to step up and take his new role of father very seriously.

He was my rock throughout the whole thing. I'm grateful to my neighbour for driving my husband to the accident site and for reassuring me. I'm grateful for Spotify.

I usually lose respect for a SAHM when I see that her entire Facebook feed is about justifying her choice to be a SAHM (for example, those videos/infographics about how "A SAHM is worth more than 100K per year!"). It reeks of insecurity. Also, while that kind of SAHM are on Facebook, they aren't taking care of the house nor the kids, now are they. Some men should not try to grow a mustache.

| 1 | GratituesdayI'm grateful for my husband's introverted nature. Since he's INTJ and I'm INFJ, we both need our alone time at home to recharge, and it's even more obvious during the holidays. That means we both like to keep the partying to a minimum. :) I'm grateful for my in-laws and my parents, who invited us for dinner, gave us amazing gifts, and with whom we had a great time!

| 1 | GratituesdayI'm grateful for my husband's relaxed attitude during the Holidays. We see many people stressing out because of all the parties, traveling and other things, yet my husband prefers to take it slow and really appreciate the moment. For instance, he wants us to spend the 24th only the two of us, at home, in comfy pyjamas, with fondue and wine. What's not to love? I'm grateful that this year's Christmas will be full of snow!

| 1 | A Military RantI believe in streamlined processing. For example if you are between 18-22 (male or female) there's a standardized set of tests (physical) and appropriate 'pass' ranges.

| 3 | Conway shatters glass ceiling as first woman to run a successful presidential campaignI don't think you understand quite how demanding the campaign manager role is. There is nothing "supportive" about it "Supportive" was probably not the best word to describe it. Non-native English speaker here, sorry. Apparently "supportive" was the appropriate word. Thank you /u/Camille11325! I didn't mean that her job was a walk in the park, nor that she had a passive role. I meant that she was not the one with the spotlight on her. She was definitely working hard, but she was working in the b… | /r/RedPillWives | 12/11/16 01:29 AM |
| 21 | Conway shatters glass ceiling as first woman to run a successful presidential campaignThis woman is another brilliant example that in a supportive/behind-the-scenes role, women can excel and truly push a man to success. As they say, "behind every successful man, there is a woman". It's pretty sad that feminists can't recognize this kind of role as being worthy. They have this "all-or-nothing" attitude (women must be president/CEOs/big bosses in order to achieve something) that completely undermines the supportive role of women. | /r/RedPillWives | 10/11/16 10:24 PM |

| 2 | Moms Stay Home When Kids Enter Teen YearsOlder children are picky about who from and when they need attention, and they will really carry the lessons you teach them through the rest of their lives as being relevant to being an adult. This is so true, yet so overlooked by parents. The fact that your child can eat, bathe and get changed on his own doesn't mean that he doesn't need your guidance anymore. It is in the teen years that children really start developing critical thinking and their sense of individuality. They get a ton of conf… | /r/RedPillWives | 06/11/16 08:42 PM |

I reread the comments at least three times, and the vast majority of the comments are definitely not "vitriol against modern Islam". this article is mostly factual Factual?

It's not in line with what we see and think of today but it's not a joke, either. I agree that at that time it was a major improvement, but the problem with the article is that the author tries to apply today's standards to changes that happened centuries ago.

Those two definitions fit perfectly with their respective social matrices.

| 1 | Reflections with RPWi: 10/03/2016Have you ever thought of seeking medical advice from a professional about your anxiety? It's one thing to be nervous/stressed from time to time, but when you have panic attacks during the night, so much insecurity and manic-like episodes, there might be underlying medical/psychological issues. It's worth checking out in my opinion. | /r/RedPillWives | 03/10/16 08:30 PM |
| 2 | Reflections with RPWi: 10/03/2016My sister is like this when it comes to people she cares about; it's weird. It's definitely not weird. Since there is usually a deep emotional connection between members of the same family, staying cool-headed and rational is a very, very hard thing to do. That's why surgeons never perform surgeries on family members. | /r/RedPillWives | 03/10/16 08:25 PM |

| 1 | The Hot/Crazy Matrix - A Man's Guide to WomenHis examples of Vicky Mendosa are inaccurately represented on the scale though.

| 0 | It's so much better being a nice wife...The really cool thing is, not only have I learned to hold my tongue, but I have realized why it's annoying. It's even better this way, because when you understand the reason behind something, the lesson has a much greater impact, and there is less chance to "go back to old habits". It's like learning by heart versus understanding a concept in school. Blindly applying notions without understanding them will eventually fail. | /r/RedPillWives | 03/10/16 12:14 PM |

| 3 | Homemaking question!You can make linen sprays and air sprays. I'm hoping these things will have more staying power. Top notes won't stick for very long. You'll want heart notes for that, maybe even base notes. Some of your essential oil combinations contain heart and base notes, so they should last for a while. This page contains a top/heart/base notes chart for essential oils, and that page has a few air fresheners recipes. | /r/RedPillWives | 26/09/16 03:31 AM |

A few examples that I can think of: We one-up each other on bad puns, play on words and dad-jokes. Both his father and mine are black belt in dad jokery, so we both have some training. I remember this one night we were trying to sleep, and one of us poked a part of the other person's body and made a pun with that body part in a sentence.

Washing the dishes, especially with my headphones on. Dancing to music makes it so enjoyable! Shoveling snow. The white everywhere, the cold air on my face, the physical effort... It's a great way to spend energy and ends up being very relaxing and mind-clearing, especially if followed by a warm bath. :) | /r/RedPillWives | 19/09/16 02:29 PM |

No, because when your car broke down instead of risking being vulnerable you did the safe, comfortable thing by asking your buddy for help. That vulnerability makes you do things you wouldn't normally do and it bonds you with the person that goes out of their way to help you. Wow, I never saw it that way before, but it is so true!

You should not call her out on her attitude, but if your mother makes fun of your dad in front of you and looks at you in order to get your approval, I would definitely not advise you to smile and nod, because it would only reinforce the pattern.

I had a huge tendency to tell my goals to people close to me, especially my husband, mostly because of the accountability factor.

We hugged, and kissed, and hugged again, and then he said softly in my ear "I love you". ...and me, like an idiot, I thought I didn't hear well, so I said "Huh?" So he said it again, "I love you". And I told him "I love you too". And we kissed and hugged again. And then I had to leave. Those were the longest two weeks of my life. | /r/RedPillWives | 06/09/16 03:24 AM |

| 1 | How to Become a Homemaker: Intro & Step 1Thank you so much for this series! I think choosing "Identify time-wasters and distractions" as the first step is very clever. Before trying to be productive as a homemaker, one must cut the things prohibiting productivity. Playing on your phone while spending time with others is also a no-no. Not only is it rude, but you’re not actually spending quality time with the person by doing so. Indeed. It’s fine if you use your tv, PC, etc. to play music while cleaning, for example, as long as you can … | /r/RedPillWives | 18/08/16 03:16 PM |
| 2 | Self Improvement DiscussionThe best way for me to stay accountable is to tell my SO about my goals! He will always check up on things I am supposed to be doing, and I never want to disappoint him. I used to do this, but I realized it's a double-edge weapon. Like you I have a bazillion goals, and telling them to my husband results in unnecessary chatter (especially when it's girly stuff like makeup, hair care, etc).

It's a habit I'm trying to quit though, because 1. it's a useless time-sink and 2. sometimes some of the stories put me in a bad mood for a few minutes, which is a bad thing.

| 3 | Why We Must DiscriminateI agree with the vast majority of the article, and really enjoyed how it was written (the Q&A format).

I'm quite up north, so our gardening season is quite short and our vegetables take their sweet time to grow.

I like to plan in advance social events so I can set myself in the mood to see people, because I normally feel quite good when being on my own (or with only my husband). My social life consists of: spending time with my husband catching up with female friends between 1-2 times a year for some and 1-2 times a season for others (I'd say I have l… | /r/RedPillWives | 14/06/16 05:22 PM |

However, I still think her advice is spot on. She should definitely write another essay in 5 years about how her advice worked out for the best. Kind of like a long-term field report.

If passion is the norm, at one point, it will be either too draining or it will become like a drug (you'll need a bigger "hit" to feel the butterflies).

From what I could understand from your comments, he is not saying "I will only marry a woman who is worthy of me", he is saying "Marriage is bad for men".

| 1 | WE'VE REACHED 500 SUBSCRIBERS!!!!Hello everyone! I'm jade_cat, 27 years old, married for nearly two years. I discovered RPW a few months prior to our wedding and it really helped me start our marriage with mindfulness and good habits. I am very grateful for all the wonderful advice I got with this community. Thank you everyone! :) My hobbies are video games, baking, cooking, sewing, knitting, horseback riding and reading (especially comic books/graphic novels). | /r/RedPillWives | 24/04/16 03:39 AM |
| 2 | Stop saying 'Sorry' if you want to say Thank YouAs a Canadian, this habit will be hard to change. On a more serious note, thank you for posting this. I never truly realized that saying "sorry" instead of "thank you" could give such a negative impression to other people. The comment you quoted explains very clearly why. I will definitely try to be more mindful of this. | /r/RedPillWives | 24/04/16 03:29 AM |
| 1 | The STFU MethodOnce you spend a little time with your bitchy little thoughts, you realize how unimportant they are and out of mind they go. Oh yes, definitely this! When I started applying the STFU Method that's probably the first thing I realized : that the things I would usually complain about were nothing in the grand scheme of things. It became much easier to let go of these nagging thoughts when I realized that. | /r/RedPillWives | 24/04/16 02:55 AM |

| 3 | Why complaining is literally killing youWhen someone labels you as a complainer they will automatically write off everything you say, and that is the last thing you want your SO to do! Exactly.

[...] I know you here may suggest the same thing, but knowing that I wouldn't maybe you could offer some alternative strategy. Then you'll have to learn to accept his cheating. If he's a serial cheater, his reasons for cheating are not related to you at all. Therefore even if you try to change yourself, it won't make him stop cheating. You can't change him. The only thing … | /r/RedPillWives | 22/04/16 05:25 PM |

I tend to quickly forget things I want to say so when I think about something I want to say to my husband I tell him right away, no matter if he's in his alone time or not. I found two ways to prevent this. I don't stay in the same room as him when he has his alone-time (usually he's on his computer during that time). I also close the room's door, so instead of going straight into the room to tell him something I see the closed door and it stops me in my tracks. I … | /r/RedPillWives | 22/04/16 04:42 PM |

| 2 | Sexual AvailabilityShow him that you like/need/want his touch. Flirt. That costs you nothing. Not even energy. This will not only build him up but it will get you in the mood too. I read somewhere (maybe on the orpw?) that women take time to get in the mood, and many of them will want to refuse having sex unless they are in the mood right from the start. That was my problem for a while. Now, even if I'm not in the mood right away, I go with the flow when my husband initiates and eventually I really get in the mood… | /r/RedPillWives | 22/04/16 04:15 PM |

| 4 | RPW Transcends Sexual StrategyThere is a difference between being a doormat, and being a pleasant and humble person. The line is not at the same place for your SO/husband than for the rest of the world. Your SO/husband has your best interests at heart. Your relatives might too. However, the rest of the world definitely has not. It is a jungle out there. Therefore, it is much easier to place yourself in a position of vulnerability towards your SO/husband.

I already suffer from mild depression and have a history of anxiety attacks, so I really don't need to be doing this to myself (or him, obviously. I'm tired of being the naggy "wife").

I still have the bad habit of sometimes completing my husband's phrases when he is looking for his words when answering to people, but I'm trying to keep this in check.

The comment from /u/FleetingWish about Man-Speak versus Woman-Speak is spot on, and I agree with her that you should let your man deal with this.

It kind of looks like a fire and there's (optional) heat coming out of the slot above the fire. Yesterday it was cold so my husband and I cuddled in front of it. The only downside was that our kitten was fascinated with the flames and tried to catch them (there's a glass panel so there's no risk of her breaking things but it made it a little bit less authentic). It still was funny to watch. | /r/RedPillWomen | 11/01/16 02:39 PM |

| 3 | Making mornings great for your manMy husband is definitely not a morning person. He hits snooze on his alarm for an hour and take forever in the shower, therefore he ends up pretty much in a hurry. I made my schedule so that I could help him waste the least time possible. Usually, I get up at the first or second snooze, and I ask him at what time he wants me to wake him up, in order to avoid the repeated snooze.

The book seems to be a criticism of housewives and a feminist propaganda. The first movie seems to be a horror flick (hence the psycho scenes), and the 2004 "remake" was a comedy from which, ironically, the whole feminist message was removed (the bad "guy" is a woman).

Worse-case scenario, resentment will grow on either (or both) part(s). Women here strive to step up their game and be a better mate for their SO/husband.

I don't find it very plausible she not telling me, even if she says that what she is talking about is private stuff her friend is sharing with her. There are two possible scenarios, and in both she showed a complete lack of respect towards you. If she is talking to her friends about "private things" without giving you even a simple … | /r/RedPillWomen | 14/12/14 04:14 PM |
| 3 | Getting through the hard stuff together in a marriage- maybe a FR?Our marriage is stronger than ever despite, or maybe because of, this horrible infertility. Hard times in a marriage are make-it-or-break-it situations. Either the couple falls apart, or else it becomes much stronger than before. I am glad your couple became stronger because of this situation. Thank you for sharing your story. It is very inspiring, and the list is a very good one.

My husband lurks mostly, and sometimes posts there, but he does a lot of filtering. He focuses much more on posts about improving his value and posts about LTRs.

| 3 | I just wanted to tell you how happy I am to have found you all :)Welcome aboard ! As for your question, here's my 2 cents : While growing up, people change, values change, needs change, including yours and your friends'. The people you were compatible with in high school might not be the people you need/want in your life anymore.

I would add "insecure people" to the list. Some people believe that they need to put down others in order to look like better persons.

| 1 | The hairy leg clubThank you for the information. I never even thought about trimming, it was either au naturel or fully shaved in my head. I was always wondering how antiperspirants could reach the skin when the armpit was full of hair, especially for some antiperspirants like Drysol. | /r/RedPillWomen | 17/07/14 01:43 PM |
| 6 | The hairy leg clubThat said, I leave my leg hair be all winter long but it's not nearly as thick as these girls. For some of them, I had to double-check to be sure it wasn't a guy's legs because of the amount of hairs. But regarding pits, it's just more hygienic to take the hair out so it doesn't trap smells and deodorant works better What about men's armpits ?

I gave my example to reinforce the point you made about the generation/age/era difference you mentioned in this part : Back in the day, people generally got tattoos for something they felt strongly about.

| 2 | How do you ladies feel about tattoos/muscles on a guy?It depends. We can't generalize. Yes, many people have tattoos that they regret, but some others have a very meaningful story/reason behind each of their tattoos.

Did you make it clear that exclusivity was part in parcel with being gf and bf? This. A THOUSAND TIMES this. For some people being bf/gf does not include exclusivity.

| 3 | How do you ladies balance working out and maintaining your appearance?From what I can see in multiple threads, RPW usually advocates maintaining a proper, elegant physical appearance at all times (or almost), and get in shape/workout.

There are some products to protect against the heat. I use this serum and it doesn't make my hair oily. However, for people with longer hair, your solution is awesome. As for dry shampoo, they can be quite expensive, but there are some great DIY recipes too. | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/07/14 01:27 PM |

Him and I had a rocky relationship while I was a teenager, mainly because my ultra-angry-feminist mother would try to play us off against each other. Also, in order to avoid my mother, my father would work 7 days a week, therefore I never r… | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/06/14 01:12 PM |
| 3 | Is it ever ok to issue an ultimatum?you wont die alone with cats if YOU DONT PRETEND your a 20 yr old belle of the ball with a 498 checklist of bullet points you require in a man. be realistic and youll be fine This is a very good advice. Once my father and his girlfriend broke up a few years ago, he told me half-jokingly "Alright. Now the next time I meet a woman, to have a chance with me she will have to meet ALL the requirements that I have listed. There are 16 of them." A few months after, he met a woman who was definitely not… | /r/RedPillWomen | 05/06/14 10:52 PM |
| 2 | What made you into a "red pill woman"?Several things actually. 1) Women in my family Until I was 17 years old I lived with my parents and my grandmother. My mother was a die-hard feminist and a textbook example of /r/raisedbynarcissists Nmom. My grandmother was an RPW (which seemingly was the norm for this time). Both of them were in constant conflict as to how to raise me. My grandmother would tell me stuff that I read on TRP and RPW, although definitely not with the same vocabulary (she did not use terms like SMV, but instead woul… | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/06/14 02:26 PM |
| 6 | Choose wisely ladies.Granted women don't want to know how something is made and take things apart just to know, she might not ponder the stars and want to understand wtf is going on but but they have other ways they want to explore stuff. Even if it's stuff like making things cooking etc I completely agree with this part. Also, when a woman explores that kind of stuff, her husband benefits from it. For instance, I try to find new recipes to try in order to make my fiancé happy. If I did the same food over and over, … | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/06/14 04:22 AM |
| 2 | How do you find like-minded friends?Maybe another source could be your enlarged family (cousins, etc), since the members of a family can evolve in different environments and also have completely different sets of values from one another, as opposed to a close-knit group of friends who will have a tendency to have a common set of values. For instance, one of my cousins converted to Islam a couple of years ago, and she seems to be the person that understands me the most. Despite her not knowing about the RP ideology, she shares my o… | /r/RedPillWomen | 02/06/14 02:39 PM |
