Sometimes, it pays to be honest and to take care of yourself. "Dad, when you make me watch pseudoscientific material despite me telling you that I do not wish to, it makes me lose respect for you as a parent, which means you may never see any grandchildren as I wouldn't want them to become like you." "Dad, when you show me this information, it conveys that you don't value women or the work women do, and it makes me reconsider any expectations you might have of me to care for you or even show up …

Let me ask a few questions: Would you stay in a job that pays 50k a year, expecting 60 hour weeks, when the company down the road is offering 75K for 40 hour weeks PLUS healthcare? Would you stay in a house with spreading mould, fissuring cracks due to shitty foundations and water damage, or would you shift to a house that's more structurally sound and safe? You don't seem to ever get up in arms about men leaving partners for drastically younger women, or the fact that men are six times more lik…

Because redpill ideology only works when women are culturally and institutionally gaslit into believing that they are deserving of redpill treatment, and we've seen enough when we're young to have a dog in the fight of bringing it down.

It's also a cope that helps prevent adherents from realising the logical and ethical problems with TRP: if all the benefits are delayed, then how can you say it's not working? Dudes who don't have the social skills and understanding/appreciation of norms that women are attracted to when they're younger don't develop those social skills/appreciation of norms without therapy, better socialisation or sincere reflection - all of which being things that TRP is diametrically opposed to.

I kinda think we should be encouraging men to be comfortable with both solitude and community in a way that goes beyond a romantic relationship. The urge to use women as their only source of companionship and emotional support isn’t healthy for anyone, and that so many of these dudes fall into shit communities like TRP is a reflection that there’s very little community participation happening for them IRL.

I think people become shitty out of complacency and socialisation. If you see your mum clean up after you your whole life or do all the chores in addition to a full time job while dad does none of them, it’s easy to assume this is the norm. When care and domestic labour is devalued economically, it’s easy to assume it is inconsequential and you don’t need to do it. The 70% statistic ties into the sex of the person lodging the divorce paperwork - not who requests the divorce. And if the divorced …

However, I think a majority of them have been emotionally burned by romantic partners and interests countless times. Have they been burned, or are they just shit partners who don't know how to nurture a relationship or show healthy care for others (at best) or are outright abusive and feel entitled to treat their partners this way?

Yo this is kinda the same rhetoric that MLM companies use to explain the failure of consultants and independent contractors to earn a liveable salary while hocking their wares. Were you trying hard enough? Did you tap into your downline sufficiently? Were you hustling on SM? Ultimately, if the product is a turd, very few people can sell it. As it appears from the outside, I'm yet to meet or hear about a genuinely successful man who has applied TRP to his life which isn't just as much of a front …

For him physical appearance and health are the main criteria for any woman he would consider dating. If she doesn't fit bit spec, he will show no interest in her. Character and personality are secondary characteristics. I'm not saying that he deserves bad things to happen to him; I'm just saying that I would be highly entertained if his criteria netted him a Dave Rubin-tier grifter.

Because they don't value unpaid emotional and domestic labour. In their minds, bringing in any full-time income = being the breadwinner, regardless of whether or not they work shorter hours, have fewer responsibilities or earn a smaller salary. They're the boss because in their mind they identify as the boss. But unfortunately, facts don't care about their feelings.

But that didn't prevent those women from going on dates with those dudes in that OK Cupid study: it just revealed that physical appearance wasn't the only defining factor for choosing a partner.

Sure, I mean definitely. If your knowledge of human relationships is entirely made up of what you see in the media or online because you have poor social networks and your parents didn't love you enough to bring you up with social skills, that's definitely an inference you'd draw.

Homie, I went into your post history. Your appearance is fine; you're not overweight or emaciated, your skin is nice, and you seem reasonably well groomed. Your glasses aren't very stylish (also they are FILTHY), and you could probably do with spending a little more on finding a barber with a bit more flair, but there's very little that CBT and an eye for style couldn't fix.

Look: do they care about being called gay by dudes who they will never bang, or do they care about being attractive to the sex they want to sleep with? If they're looking for a relationship and are willing to show that they care about their partner's comfort and tastes, then they'll choose the latter. If they are paranoid about their social standing amongst other men, they'll be preoccupied with the former. I mean, if he wants to avoid washing his ass to own the libs, he can go ahead: if r/relat…

M8 I doubt you even have any dominant genes being expressed at present.

Think about what money materially does for you, compared to what beauty actually does. Beauty gets a dick hard, and to an extent it can open a few social doors, but I think its currency is drastically overstated and can be compensated for with other things in a way that you really can't do with money. As a woman, my appearance has got me nothing - I have some facial disfigurement from scarring, a bodyfat distribution and connective tissue disorder that causes pain and looks odd, and while I take…

I didn't argue anything about famous women who married "down" economically, but I mean, sure: Gwen Stefani's ex-husband was arguably much less financially successful than her; same for Sandra Bullock, same for Elle Macpherson with Andrew Wakefield (vom), same for plenty of celebs.

From my personal experience, most men I know will not always directly say they want a woman who looks incredible, but their actions always seem to be the opposite to me. Even if they're handsome. Look at every single celebrity man you find online and they all seem to date beautiful women, however I can find countless famous women that happen to date "normal" men, or men who look far worse than them. In fact ask most women if they care if a man is attractive or ugly and they will usually say they…

On the contrary. As a consequence of poor parenting and childhood abuse, I didn't recognise that I was experiencing relationship abuse until I started talking to people who were able to provide me with some valid perspective. I didn't even sugarcoat it for myself: if anything, despite me sugarcoating my ex-spouse's behaviour, it still came through as abusive to other parties. Perhaps if more men sought assistance or a listening ear they might be able to avoid some of their relationship issues?

Many men myself included have done the laundry list of advice and all I have really learned is that women put up a lot of barriers through and through and it gets kinda dehumanize again tiring trying to get through them just for something that they selves would never have to think about.

What are families who earn 1/10th, 1/20th or even 1/50th of your income meant to do? Is this the norm they should achieve? Is every man capable of getting that job that pays your income?

Funny you mention this: I read an article this morning on compulsive behaviours and self-regulation as a consequence of social isolation or exclusion for my postgrad study.

Traditionally masculine trades pay drastically more than traditionally feminine trades requiring a similar level of educational attainment. There's a lot of incentive for bright and motivated students to explore work like HVAC or mechanics, and they do require a lot of cognitive flexibility and capacity.

That’s very true and a bad oversight on my behalf in terms of the diagnosis.

Teacher of ten years. Worked in an all boys' school for over five years, and am now in the co-ed sector. This is a topic of particular interest for me.

I think TRP is very analogous to a naturopath. All the stuff you listed above is great - as is the bulk of things that naturopaths recommend. Like, a good 80-85% of the stuff they recommend is good.

Terrific. And then there's the sneaky shit. The 15-20% of stuff that's terrible. Vaccines cause autism. …

I agree with you: negative emotions like guilt and shame do have an evolutionary purpose, and so long as they're for things within your control that have resulted in harm, it's healthy to experience them. OP, it sounds like you're in a course of your life where you could do some real good for yourself with volunteering, community engagement and therapy.

Women are considered to be more capable of empathy but they are much more cold than men, they move on more quickly, they are more judgemental, and friendship among women are normally just a fight of backstabbing, where did the stereotype come from?

Agreed. Anxiety and how it influences your consequent behaviour can be just as toxic as TRP philosophy; having to second-guess yourself constantly and always being defensive and compensatory are terrible ways to establish rapport and deep trust with others to the point where something like TRP, which offers a formula and blueprint for behaving as a self-preserving mechanism, becomes attractive.

I think it's really positive that you're able to look to life pre-RP to recognise the strengths and positive traits that made you happy in yourself, which other people liked as well. You're showing a lot of maturity in this insight, and it's clear that you value being warm and inclusive.

I worry more broadly for any young person whose socialisation is primarily screenbased: whose only experience of watching people interact might be through watching fictionalised interactions in TV shows and movies. There are a lot of very poorly and absently parented young people who can't read body language, understand social nuance or engage with their peers and adults around them because they've been raised by the internet, games and their TVs.
