Plenty of old fashioned female normies believe this, too, though it's often inverted ("only women truly love.") It was something I was raised with... very damaging.

The term "value" is a problem in and of itself. It doesn't actually refer to whether or not a person would make a good partner, in the contexts in which it's being used - it's a rating system specific to sexual market value. People who aren't somehow connected with PUA/MRA/dating [such as The Rules] communities don't talk in terms of SMV in real life, they either like a person or they don't.

The most recent guy I was interested in, is 7 years younger, and himself mostly dates older women (40s), so yes. This is an example of what I'm talking about. RedPill (and MRA in general) thinking has seeped into my brain despite me knowing full well that they are out of step with reality, for either myself or virtually any person I know in real life.

Because when I read stuff by men in the Manosphere, about women and what women want - I actually do see myself, when I was younger. I dated heavily when I was younger. I DID go with the more shy, meek, socially awkward men later. And I found them intensely, intensely frustrating to be around. Not because "betas are less attractive," but because it's hard to be attracted to the behaviors and personality problems that they so often had. The passive-aggressiveness and sulking and their own passive …

Gender politics will be an interesting thing to consider as many blue collar "male" jobs are lost to automation, and service sector jobs/caring professions (many of which are "female" jobs) are the few jobs left. Men will eventually flood into those jobs, but there will be a period of transition where there are more employable women in the working and lower middle classes, than there are men. It will be interesting to see what this does to dating politics.

I think Red Pill resonates with so many people because there is some grain of truth in it. Our culture values different things in men vs women. Nobody is arguing about that. Heck, it may be the one thing that feminists and manospherians agree on. It's not wrong for guys to care about how girls look - but by the same token, it's also not wrong for girls to care about guys' financial prospects. If you want change, then be willing to be the change.

I guess that somehow it's higher status if you go halfway around the world to pay a poor woman to clean your apartment and sleep with you, than if you stay in the US and do the same thing.

I'm willing to give all sorts of people a chance. It's my own self-esteem that's kept me from getting out there. Seeing what people actually do in the real world helps. I've gone upward in age in the past before because I don't want kids, and it's easier to meet older people sometimes for that reason (most people are already done having their kids by the mid 40s). But since hitting my 40s, I really see the difference between the 40s and 50s! I really do feel like people in their 50s are often in…

Generally, I'd like to be with someone fairly close in age, but I could go 10 years younger before I could go 10 years older. I draw the line at a few years older, because with older people, I am really starting to see the difference in life place/life stages and... I'm just not there yet. I don't see myself with someone in their 50s if I'm not close to that myself. I tried to date someone 13 years older than me a few years ago and it was just too much of an age difference in so many respects.

Yeah - lots and lots of therapy. It's probably the reason I can recognize that a lot of my feelings are irrational and have little to do with what people are doing out in reality, away from the internet. Those feelings are still there though. It sucks. I'm trying to make the best of it and focus on the parts of my life that don't hinge on my "SMV" (that's the sad thing of all of that talk, what about just being an interesting and fulfilled person? Life doesn't revolve around getting laid or even…

This is good advice. For everyone, of any gender or orientation.

Don't start smoking. Nobody has ever turned anyone down for being a non-smoker, but smokers most often can only get other smokers, and when you find someone, you don't need to be two people reinforcing each other's unhealthy lifestyle.

Some people are not meant for marriage and can have a much happier, more productive life as single people. I wish that most cultures accepted this. Instead, in order to make this choice, some people feel they have to flail and make a big production about the choice they've made, along with some kind of quasi-political justification (and it's not just MGTOW, it's a LOT of lifestyle choices these days.) The end result is that many MGTOW often come off as "protesting too much."

It's probably a good rule of thumb to only take marital advice from people who have actually had happy marriages.

I'd hate to live in a society where such a practice could actually be enforced. Thankfully, I do not. (Yet. It could go there. But it's probably the immature and stupid people who would be favored.)

Women generally won't be impressed with a man's in-depth knowledge of quantum physics and geopolitical conflicts around the world unless it makes him money. In fact, it's a turn off and mood killer. But tease her about her silly glasses and knock aside a shit-test with a clever agree-and-amplify and you're golden. It's not all women. It's the women that Red Pillers tend to choose and value: high SMV/high social status prom queen types. They aren't all women. You are literally only going for the …

Not strictly speaking Red Pill (former "Rules Girl" and "Pat Allen girl" here). I tried to go into radical feminism to detox myself from the Rules/Surrendered Single/Pat Allen mentality, and also RP and PUA thinking. I did not stay with radical feminism - I read some of its material and interacted with people in it for, like, a month. I disagree with many of the radfems' take on trans issues. I also felt like I was just going from one kind of toxic groupthink to another. Radfem did not make me f…

I'm in the USA, pretty sure we're not going Universal Basic Income any time in my lifetime. Anyway, I'm 42 so it's probably a moot point anyway.

Why would I have children when it's likely my children's jobs will be replaced by robots? If not my own work during their lifetime?

I relate a lot to this. I'm a bi woman who leans enough toward women that mostly in recent years, I've only dated women. But because of RP/PUA mentality which I've been exposed to, and because of my time as a "Rules Girl" - I'm totally messed up in how to date women. Let alone men! I had a hard time dating women while also internalizing a lot of PUA and RP thinking, especially since my longest lesbian relationship was indeed with someone who was manipulative and gaslighty and opportunistic.

It's not that every woman is a shallow gold-digger who "rides the carousel" in her 20s. This might be a description of the specific women they go for, however. The world is filled with average people who somehow manage to partner with other average people.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
