This might annoy some of you but I don't think most women (long term) gain the same sense of satisfaction out of some stranger giving them a medal. We're redpilled here, I doubt many would get annoyed at this statement. To me that means a situation where I'm overworked, stressed and still expected to be glowing, beautiful and intimate in body and soul. Yes, and it's why modern women aren't as docile as men would want them to be. We can't expect women to remain childlike, trusting and youthful if…

He may not be able to necessarily articulate it the way I did, but that doesn't mean it isn't there. A very important difference at this point of the game. If she's being honest, he's not even married and he is already signaling that he gave up on being the provider (which is a must for her). where resentment comes from. Why are we talking about resentment so, so early, at the point where everything is supposed to look ideal? You kinda make my point with this, it's very simple, women looking to …

The thing is, a man who thinks like this is not a good man to marry. I don't disagree with what you wrote here at all (a woman should always seek to better herself to add value to her husband's life), but I'd filter out a man that would present his views like you have presented them because his mindset is not abundant. He can keep counting his pennies, while husband material gets fulfillment when he is generous to the woman he loves.

How long have you been together? I don't think you're unreasonable, but then again I am spoiled. Most couples need to work in this day and age. For me and my husband we both agree that we rely on his income for living, but that I should seek income too to increase our savings, as a plus. It's a very intimate conversation for us because it involves our personal goals and feelings. He is generous and loves providing (he immediately saw his income as our money, none of that TRP bs in him thankfully…

It's just inconsistent, to be such an independent personality type but also being so scared of being alone that you stayed for 7 years with someone you lack compatibility at this extent...? It's also a planner personality, thinking things through etc... it's still a mystery to me how you came to marry into this, like what was your thought process? Because, just going with the flow, or doing out of outside pressure, is also not very reflective of that personality type. I'd think you'd be more dec…

Because of the turmoil you had originally expressed, the dramatic range of emotion. But on this thread I sway from "this woman is dramatic and destructive" to "this woman is just bored with a man she was too cowardly to leave" the more responses you write. I wonder if you're terrified of being alone. Also you responded elsewhere that you were an INTJ, which is such a shock to me from the way you wrote originally. Nothing about this life of emotion you wrote came across as INTJ. A daydreamy life,…

This paints a different picture than the original post. On the original post you said "Having dated immature/toxic men before him, I felt like I lucked out with a great guy" and it had words like "fulfillment" and "that in-love feeling" that are a tell of female fantasy (seeking personal fulfillment through a life of whirlwind and romance in which they're never bored). Wanting "someone that can level with me playfully and challenge me" is different and realistic to want. But I wonder why did you…

Realize that the relationship in it's current state doesn't hit my marks of fulfillment It never did do i work on myself because this problem will follow me everywhere (chasing drama/emptiness) This is a separate issue you should work on regardless of circumstance or do I accept the reality of the situation as untenable and leave....possibly regret this for the rest of my life You'd be regretting it in the sense of leaving a blanket "good deal" that wasn't what you even wanted, but you've alread…

What qualifies as makeup to him, and why? My first thought was, if you can't get around it, focus entirely on skin texture with skincare (I read you have that taken care of), and you can add color with some tinted lip balm (see my username lol). Lip balm is in the sweet spot of being skincare still and I don't think most men would mind it. Most of the time I'm wearing just tinted moisturizer which is also in that blurry line between skincare and makeup, and some lip balm. My style is blush based…

From the way she described him, it reads to me like he goes along with her sexual games just to please her but isn't actually into it.

I agree she's high drama, I just don't think she'll be a good wife to this man in any capacity. I don't think it will get solved by her just understanding what a healthy relationship is. She never actually desired HIM. The only way she actually gets excited by him is when he acts extremely out of character (by her encouragement, not his volition). She might get better if she works on herself but she won't just think herself into wanting this man just by playing sexual games. I know people try to…

That my definition of "love" is broken and comes from a dysfunctional childhood scenario. If I'm going to be plagued by this for the rest of my life I'll be chasing toxic relationship dynamics instead. This is it, and I really appreciate how self-aware it is. Your pattern is destructive and you really should not have gotten married. As you are now, you are not going to do him any good, you're just going to bring him down with your nonsense. Please consider moving on now before there are kids inv…

Some days it breaks me that I'm depriving him of a woman that's absolutely crazy about him. I feel restless and have a wandering eye and the guilt is eating me alive. I think you should end it and let him find someone who wants him and who is capable of being good wife material. You don't want to be "happy", you want to get high on drama, and "fulfillment" is simply an euphemism for the next fleeting thrill.

For example let's say my fiance asked me to dye my hair blonde. While this is expensive and lots of upkeep I would still do it because he's my fiance and we have years of love and connection. This is an interesting example, because for me it would be the opposite... I value optimization and strive to make maintenance as easy as possible. I keep my hair long, wash it once a week, oil it and comb it and that's it. If suddenly my fiancé wanted me to be a glamorous platinum blonde, it would mean an …

I know that YOU say cheating isn’t a dealbreaker for you I never said this, I said cheating isn't the worst thing ever in marriage, it's a nuanced issue and it is hilarious when a 20 year old acts like she would leave her future husband over it when she doesn't actually know how it will be down the line.

All we know is that OP had this dream in her head and that this man was meant to fulfill it. Despite betrayal at every step, she kept having his child, because white picket fence or something. And when doing the same thing over and over changed nothing (big surprise), she posts a woe-is-me for everyone to validate her leaving, which then everyone does! The whole thread turned into commiseration without questioning her actions, and of course the only one who questioned her (/u/teaandtalk) gets do…

Sounds like you ignored any red flags arising during dating for your vision of a big perfect family. I don't even think I could tell how his personality is and what he wants from your post, what attracted you to him and why did you get together in the first place, it's entirely about you and your countless children you dreamed to have. Why did you keep popping out his children if he sucked so much since the first one? I don't even know what to do. I have wasted my entire life on him, didn't real…

But culturally you're Christian? When you say your family is conservative American I assumed Protestant values (even if you were not taken to church as a child). I don't mean to say there isn't much difference, just that it's not as extreme as it could have been dealing with another race and doctrine entirely. Of course it's still another distinct culture if they're very insular and possibly Orthodox. Their views are very understandable but in this case it doesn't seem to be a big deal to him an…

Truly depends on how he deals with it. If they're super close that you're going to see them every weekend and they're going to make snide comments routinely, it will be a different experience that if he keeps strong boundaries and respects yours as well. I'd say pay attention to his character, if he's the kind of man that believes what you say, and is not going to be like "you're exaggerating. I'm sure she didn't mean it that way" and "she's not like that, she would never say this" because that …

The notion has some false premises, and it's posed in the wrong context. Only if you're hot enough As if that's a base from which a man will stop his no strings attached sex stream in order to give away commitment. The best recourse for a woman is to meet a man when he is ready to settle down, not to join his harem until he does. Adding the hotness neg is just to con women into thinking it's up to them.

A cursory look through your submitted history made me arrive to a good example of the become-a-plate advice Whisper himself commented on one of your posts: Working your way up from plate is a high-risk, high-reward strategy (high reward because it gives access to more desirable men). So, whether it's "recommended" or not depends on your level of girl game. Unsurprisingly, many of RPW's EC worked their way up from plate status... it's no coincidence that girls who can do that are the same ones wh…

Half of the mods there are male, some of the others are ECs that remained, at least one of who is a top plate of a TRP EC. Would you as a woman be content getting relationship advice from young male TRPers and women that are not married and that are with men who won't marry them? It came to that. The original modteam that left was made of older married women, it was a no brainer to leave alongside them. Anyway, it's just ashes now.

I can see how it might seem to you now that this it's just two different subs. It's a long story and both subs demography has changed so it's not as evident as when the schism happened. Long story short, the original mod team of RedPillWomen left and made this sub, a bunch of us are original endorsed contributors that left with them (because of disagreement with how the direction the head TRP mod was taking). What is RedPillWomen now is mostly newer people that arrived later, so the TRP mods mig…

TheRedPill overlooks the discussion at RedPillWomen so what is advised there depends entirely on what they deem acceptable, which tends to be in favor of the male imperative and downplaying the interests of women. This sub has wives on its name but it doesn't mean you have to be married, it means that the importance of marriage is upheld. TheRedPill is anti-marriage and pro-woman-staying-in-a-LTR-indefinitely squandering her youth because that's what the risk-averse guys over there like. There's…

To me it's impossible to be a working actress and a RPW rolemodel... They're actively choosing a career focused life and getting intimate on camera for pay. Not to mention how incompatible the narcissistic celebrity culture is with family and tradition. I think some marriages are more normal than others, for example Blake Lively seems like a much improved choice than Scarlett Johansson for a wife. But even so we don't know how it's inside, how authentic it could be, since they all pay so much li…

but this video sort of just makes me think that the reason might be that they're just too different. I've also garnered this from the way they talk about each other, but I wouldn't say it makes them incompatible. She's more of a people-pleasing normie and he's like a fixer upper trying to muster all his energy to function normally. It sounds to me like he fits her need to take care of others and she fits his ideal of the "becoming a better person" lifestyle/brand he is going for.

I think I am dishonest with him sometimes. I don’t think it’s a lot. Ideally it would be jever, but in our case it has been maybe a handful of times in 5 years, including big and little things. Not sure why. I get extreme anxiety from the dishonesty, but also feel the need to hide. Can you get to the bottom of this? Do you actually need to hide, or is it wanting more independence as you have very little right now, or is it to get a reaction from him?

You haven't provided enough info on what is it that you're doing that's so misguided. But ask yourself this: What sort of traits would the man you want desire in a woman? Do you offer anything close to what that man would want? Probably not, so work towards acquiring those traits.

It's a good book, I highlighted from it a bunch when I first read it. A lot of its insights are in line with the sidebar here so that was nice. However I read it when I was still dating and trying to figure out what to look for, I hadn't even met the man I married, so it's definitely tougher to be married, struggling and then work backwards to apply it.

But we lived on one income for 4 years. Just my wage. About three times the salary he makes now. It was a struggle.

I agree with you about the faith market and the selling point of his redemption story. As I commented earlier to someone else, he can't compete through the ethno market so all his eggs have to be in the Christian basket if he wants to remain a thought leader (though he also grabs a bit of the ethno market by "naming the Jew" for example). I don't know how likely it is for him to find a good life partner though given his baggage. It's kinda funny to me because all his observations of a post-wall …

I also think his conversion is true, but I think it's conveniently fashionable now. I've seen a growth of Christianity in the younger right-wing crowd, and Roosh can keep appealing to them through Christian values the way he can't do through race talk.

I found this dichotomy interesting. We've discussed female archetypes before but this is one seems a lot more streamlined to me. They directly translate to Madonna and Whore but I liked how she framed how both could work traditionally. A whore archetype is not always degenerate, it can also mean being intellectually challenging to a man for his benefit in his mission. The archetypes discussed before before for example have a clear whore (The Courtesan) but the Madonna archetype from there is amb…

I do think he has the capacity to be dominant and take the reins but that doesn't mean that he will be ready to do so with me. Yeah, this is the thing with men and age. I think it's in your best interest to look for someone over 30 that has a sense of his own self and direction so everything flows more naturally and you can relax in your role. I'm aware it can be hard to break it off when there's no specific tangible problem but at 27 you can't really afford to waste more time.

Honestly, a 24 year old man is barely an adult. It even strikes me as contrived to read you refer him as a "captain". You're older than him, your dominance threshold is clearly higher, and it won't be long until you think of yourself as more capable than him precisely because of this disparity. Relationships are meant for vetting, and 14 months isn't a long time actually - it actually didn't take very long for him to get comfortable and stagnant. This relationship doesn't sound worth pursuing fu…

How much time do you think it will take you to get back in shape? I'd say to focus 100% on that, and then get back to dating while doing all other self-improvement. However do stick to a fixed date to get there so you don't lose track. According to the losertown calculator, on a 1200 diet and couch potato lifestyle it would take you until Jan 2019 to reach the upper side of a healthy BMI. With 3x week exercise you could lose 25 lbs by February 2019. Female "monk-mode" is controversial here becau…

The best thing to do, as an outsider, is nothing tbh. You can't really change something like this from the outside. But if the woman in the relationship really wants to change and not be the boss, she has to put aside her own standards of what the couple's life and direction will be like. It's like a trust fall exercise. These women are rarely bossy because they like it, it's because they're terrified that everything will fall apart if they don't carry all the weight. Being controlling stems fro…

I think a good way to think of it is what you can do for self-care vs. what imposes on him or is actually his role. /u/51cab's examples were all about self-care, things that are immediate needs that she can pretty much address on her own (eating, resting). For bigger issues that require his decision making it's best to bring him the problem but not the solution.

Don't say you don't want to, say you can't. You're not rejecting the task out of disinterest, but out of plain inability to deal with it. Your helplessness (and vulnerability in showing it so transparently) will compel him to step up. And then, when he deals with it on his own, you can't judge him about it, no matter how long he takes or how he goes about it. And if he is asking for more input after this make sure to reply in a way that shows you don't know how to do this, not that you don't wan…

I think the insinuation is that traditional for them means staying loyal to the insular tribe, which I agree is what takes place in "traditional women" of "traditional society".

It's not traditional to pick a foreigner over your own culture and network. Loyal to the man, yes, not the tribe. Not judging by the way, I'm in a similar position myself.

I agree. To me being RP is having a RP worldview, not acting a certain way. There is wife material that isn't RP, and RP women that aren't wife material. These kinds of questions are the ones that make the sub appear cliquish and lead to the "what is the RP way to chop vegetables?" sort of threads.

This doesn't seem to add anything of value to existing RP theory. It only distorts terminology into an obfuscation, helping no one. A submissive desirable woman shouldn't be described as alpha in any shape of form, that would be mentally ill. Feminine nature is not alpha, it makes for an agreeable follower, which is desirable to men, yet that still doesn't mean alpha, because alpha doesn't mean "best", it is directly linked to dominance and leadership.

Some general good observations on modern dating from a traditional perspective. I still however think they're barely scraping at the surface here. For example they mention a woman having a "good job" as if that made her a better prospect.

Yes HHH sounds possible. If the defining percentage for a male H is greater than 50% dominant traits, guess the most appropriate summary would be HHH for our relationship. But that's going to look different if he is coming in H with like 60% alpha traits versus an H guy who is like 90% alpha traits.

You're mixing two separate parts of that post. The first letter refers to the man's dominance, the last two to the woman's own dominance and dominance threshold in that order. If you are HL that would mean you're either in a LHL or a HHL dynamic. If you meant to say your fiance was H and you were L, you would be in a HLH or a HLL depending if you have a low or high threshold. In that case you should state the three letters that comprise the dynamic to avoid confusion.

Yes they heavily overestimate female capabilities. They keep it foggy enough so it's an ideal of "what women could do if it wasn't for the patriarchy".

Radfems are right about male nature I just don't agree that something needs to be "done" about it YES! I often am shocked about how right they (ironically) get the male perspective and how different it is. They're not like libfems that think men think like them. But I often have to facepalm when they purport "solutions" as if that's a thing, or envision female havens that would fail miserably in reality.

This is a long read so I don't expect it to gain tons of traction in terms of discussion, but here it goes. The anthropological record indicates that approximately 85 per cent of human societies have permitted men to have more than one wife (polygynous marriage), and both empirical and evolutionary considerations suggest that large absolute differences in wealth should favour more polygynous marriages. Yet, monogamous marriage has spread across Europe, and more recently across the globe, even as…

I was listening to a Jordan Peterson lecture the other day when he referred to the nice guy (he phrased it as beta males I think) as a "persona". This is why we inherently distrust them as women, not because they aren't "alpha enough" but because they are literally wearing a mask of niceness and not being true enough to themselves to go for what they want outright. In many ways people go around in personas, marry someone as a persona, and then uncover and expect everything to fall in place. And …

I was shielded from my parents' issues so this made me have a very happy childhood. I know it's very "in" (especially on reddit) to say that if you're unhappy in your marriage, divorcing is better for the child because otherwise the child will learn bad relationship dynamics. Of course, if there's violence or major cruelty divorce would be the lesser evil, but in the less extreme cases I still think "staying together for the kids" is totally the way to go. It's strange because as flawed as their…

I read this the other day and was like "duh!" :) Mutual support to pursue our goals is the best way to trust each other but also to maintain clear communication about what we want in life. But it also requires compatibility in said goals... it also left me wondering about all the people who will look at this to find a sciencey reason of why their marriage is holding them back and then feel entitled to radically change their life path out of boredom/a mid-life crisis.

Even if people don't want children they would still be attracted to fertility markers! So in theory I'd agree women would go for the alpha fucks over beta commitment if we drove away from the concept, especially as beta currency depreciates and women provide for themselves. My personal observation is similar to yours, and the women I know are still very afraid of being unmarried after 30, as empowered as they are.

This is an interesting post, and I often think about what's the ideal setup for a man today, and I still conclude it's marriage with casual sex on the side.

I've heard Christina Hoff Sommers say this before, that it took Lego sets to have a social aspect for girls to be interested in them.

Brianna wasn't even a feminist before he climbed on the Gamergate controversy to gain some popularity for himself and his ugly game. I think it comes down to style and imitation of what they like to see, cartoons now are very neotenized and pinupy. I'm not sure Anita's icon was drawn by herself and it would be unfair to assume she intended for it to look that way, or if it was someone else's rendition. However…

if a man truly wants a feminist woman and an equal relationship I am kinda contesting this in my response, because I don't think a man would sincerely strive for this beyond virtue signaling, and even men who end up in LHL crave the respect they can't command. I have other thoughts on this and we're basically in agreement, it's just that you're taking a more encompassing stance on embodying the red of RP vs. just using RP theory toolbox to keep a man.

Yes! "I can't ask him to be less than he is". Encapsulating the idea that the man was a separate entity, not to be persuaded into something he didn't believe in. The essence of not being controlling.

So if your good man is a feminist and prefers dating a feminist, would it be RPW to follow his lead into feminism? If your goal is to keep this man, you can use RPW to keep him. It's really funny but leftist men are still men who would appreciate the mindset RPW offers in a female partner. The real question would be, would you want to keep this man if his worldview differs greatly from yours, and if he's going to lead you to places you disagree ideologically? One of the first steps of vetting wo…

There lies one of the differences between traditional and RP, tradcons can be very team woman in worldview. RP itself has many tenets that would be impossible for feminists to accept, no matter how shallow their idea of feminism is. Then again many of them think feminism is about women not being slaves so other aspects of the worldview must be analyzed.

The women receiving them in the recent attempts, who were not trans, would probably take some issue with that. They wouldn't, because they know they're women. The thought of men such as yourself receiving uteruses to feed your delusion is disturbing to most people. Bulking infertile women in your argument to guilt trip women is disingenuous and won't fly here. Why? Unless your claim is that I couldn't be a good mother, what is 'insane' about it?

They're not saying half Asians look more Asian, they're saying Asian women that select for White men forget their sons will probably look Asian (since white features tend to be recessive). It was interesting that your response to the user that asked you that was basically "I'm open minded, that won't happen to my family" instead of considering the possibility. Anyway, not to be judgmental about it, it's just something to think about when a woman of a race is strictly attracted to men of another.

David's case proved otherwise. Many, many, other cases have proved otherwise. David's case prove children aren't blank slates. He isn't a case of gender dysphoria (given he was not the female sex) and I'm not sure why you weakly champion his example for trans activism. Often, it is. Not in all cases, it is not. And in a lot of the trans narrative, dysphoria isn't even a requirement. The problem debating this is we've seen many examples of the extent it has been diagnosed, but people only reply l…

I don't think we get to define for other people what an insult is. I can't tell you, what's going to hurt, and why it shouldn't hurt, just because it doesn't hurt me, anymore than the reverse.

My view, I think gender is the social expression of sex, but I think it only has value as a concept built on sex.

The answer to that question reveals a lot of what society values actually, and is the source of much disagreement between the trans community, as not all them agree in what makes them trans. First, I want to distinguish between mind and brain. If we're talking about a female mind of a man, we're talking about his predisposition to feminine behavior (not material), and it would involve his identity being somehow composed of female ideas and feelings (fleeting, ill-defined, not even scientifically…

I know what it means, I just didn't get if you meant differences between them (nonbinary vs binary), or differences between each of them and "cis" but I get it's probably both. Do you have dysphoria? What do you feel about Riley Jay Dennis (male) who claims to be both a woman and nonbinary?

Female and male differences go beyond "just genitals", this is the way trans activists oversimplify sexual dimorphism to make it sound like it's no biggie. Material reality is all there is, if they wanna "identify" with a stereotype and modify their body accordingly that's not my business, but I'm not calling them a woman because they aren't, and it's not an insult to recognize so.

This isn't remotely what it's being said, and it's not analogous. Sexual orientation is not materially defined that we know of. Gay men know they are men attracted to men, they aren't saying they're women because they fuck men.

INTJ, have many thoughts on this depending from where you tackle it, since other movements that formed/intersect with RP (HBD, tradcon, WN...) are prohibitive, in RPW I think we have only pointed out the compatibility aspect in the long run (in which cultural background and religious values define a lot).

As a preamble on this specific word and RPW, this is a term that has been discussed in the community with some controversy. Not all of the women here like the word, for various reasons.

Regarding your question, I've personally defended this term before. Your situation sounds normal and resembles dynamics I know, in which the husband…

Agreed, these were my thoughts as well. The dad is a parent on his own, he's not equally (as in, interchangeably) mom, nor a lesser 'mom', it's hard to approach from mainstream media because how obsessed they are with not offending any group so the unique position of dads got downplayed to not offend single moms, but more recently I've seen them trying to compensate it by giving the dad a momlike place, which isn't quite the case either in terms of human nature.

The articles are generally short and to the point. “There’s a downside to being so self-reliant,” writes Hill. “I found it very difficult to let anyone help me. And if they tried but couldn’t do …

Watching House also made me more neutral towards escorts I was totally the same way! I watched House on TV a lot as a teen and it challenged my perceptions of the 'dirtiness' that normally comes with the picture. Same with Lt. Dan's use of prostitutes, I feel like those details in the stories made me understand why female sexual companionship is revitalizing to men in a way women can't grasp firsthand.

Just curious how this reflects being INTJ? Because I'm INTJ too and I thought it just made me more realistic on the reconciliation of what I could bear and + what I know about male sexuality by looking at human history. I don't think normal women like or overtly approve of sex encounters on the side, but the majority of long-time married women would be alright if it was discrete enough that it never became known. Not that they would openly advocate it, or like it, and would still officially cond…

I thought about this aspect as well, that reactionary groups would emphasize how much of a loser a man that purchases robot sex is to create shame.

They might have wanted it, but they didn't expect it from their relationship. Porn made it an expectation, since they experienced it by proxy. The normalization of porn makes new real expectations for women and their sexual behavior, so grooming. I thought this whole conversation was about a marriage at stake, but tbh it also works for relationship, I wouldn't say it's uncommon for young women to be pressured into some act so they don't seem prudish and uncool.

"Here watch this porn about anal so you think its normal" It's funny that you point this out as implausible, because this is actually how it happened and how it became mainstream that women get asked to do anal as part of a checklist in their relationship.

Grooming would involve taking steps to ease her into caving, so to make her say yes to something she did not want at first, by normalizing it in some way (through porn, media, not doing it means she's being a boring prude etc).

The thing is this somehow remains the mainstream idea which I see people repeating all over (and I used to repeat it myself) but people fail to mention that dysphoric feelings are actually like feelings, fleeting, and a good chunk of people get over them. It's dangerous that HRT is pushed on confused teenagers, and the pharmaceutical industry is pretty content with this solution. Reading a lot of what trans people think and go through, I think dysphoria is not this big single thing, but a confla…

Rey from Star Wars is a perfect example... I ranted so much about this at the time, yet feminist sites refuse to see her as a Mary Sue. The problem is shoehorning women into male character archetypes to make them appealing to men. I'm not even a feminist, but in this instance I agree with the male gaze concept because of what it's doing to media.

It was Margery! Many of her submissions totally deserve reposting. I was not a stranger to the concept of face shaving but frankly I always thought doing it with a razor like a man was a bit overkill so this was pretty perfect :P And then they started the dermaplaning fad (literally professional shaving with a surgical blade) so maybe it will be less 'weird' of a grooming step.

I shave my face with an eyebrow razor ever since this video was posted to RPW a couple of years ago. But I like to be fancy about it and think of it as home dermaplaning, lol. I like it best during bath time and it's not only hair but dead skin that's coming out, making the results very appealing. Of course, since it's a type of exfoliation be sure to protect your skin from the sun! And be careful not to cut yourself, although I've found that an eyebrow razor makes that impossible to happen.

I'm not missing the point. That instance changed her whole perspective of him and people are recognizing it as valid, RP or not.

I understand body/gender dysphoria. But I don't understand how some people are trans but feel comfortable with the sexual organs they were born with.

Even when I was supporting of trans I would side with the truscum on this. I don't understand what it means to "feel" like the opposite gender. Yes! Like, do th…

Not as extreme as that but the biggest double standard is probably how they treat new dads vs. new moms.

I read your first paragraph wrong so I edited that part. I don't have a problem with a word, I said that in your line of thinking it was 'wrong' so I wasn't going to contest that (you did say you didn't like it). Encouragement can be as much as a positive reaction to something. I was just explaining that the purpose of RPW isn't tricking a man into being in a dynamic he doesn't want.

Still, there's no meeting place that would make vetting unnecessary. So this idea wouldn't save you the vetting step at all. I think meeting someone and knowing you're attracted is very organic, so the thought that this would be cost effective doesn't make sense. RPW doesn't say that as a blanket statement, by the way. It's not about tricking a man into a role he doesn't want, but respecting him as a man and leader. It's true it might be like that for the women who want their low dominance husba…

Because it's not an attractive scene to them as individuals, most likely. Personally I researched BDSM way before I found RPW and found it very unappealing and corny. What is there not to get? And I don't see how you can insist it saves time and trouble, even if it made sense it would only make for a reduced pool of prospects with a lot of fetishists to weed out, for the women at least.

I think this is solipsistic, you conclude this because as a woman you find that behavior to be aggressive and intrusive, which is fine.

You mention all of these activities before he dated you, and then Throughout the time that we've been together, he has never worked out. What else has changed? Is it possible he only worked out to attract a mate, stopping when he got in relationship comfort? Or was there another reason? Why did he stop playing football? Was it a college team? I think mentioning work outs is the wrong way to go about it, perhaps you can explore the football subject more because that's more of a hobby thing that m…

Did you read what I said, or the context of what was said in the article? I talked about the attitude that STEM as the only choice that is worthwhile, plus the feminist push for it. I did not say 'choosing a field because you have the aptitude'. Lol I knew this would make some woman go all "I am a engineer and blabbity blah" objecting this.

I remember that post and I agree with it for the most part. Like you, I disagree with the college part, not because men care or should in the SMV, but because it's shown to factor in the RMV. I'm also more than done with all of the "only STEM matters" line of thought, you're only going to push women to act more like men when you say stuff like that, just as the feminists do.

Great thread! Niche dating can definitely be tempting, especially for introverted girls, because it usually means you don't have to get out of your comfort zone! Yay! So it's a good idea to expand on the cons of this novel form of navigating the dating scene. Dating based on specific similarities was hardly a thing when sex-segregated spaces and activities were the norm. A woman was expected to make a good wife, not to share every male interest like some manic pixie dream girl. I'm glad you have…

It's encouraged to get an alt from a main reddit account, to separate RP-related activity to the activity from other subs. So if your other account is a 'main' account that friends and family know, I totally get why you did it and that's very valid. I think it's mostly the way it was phrased. Longtime contributor gives the idea that you have a long history here with submitted content in the form of insightful threads and a reputation to uphold. And throwaway, unlike an alt, usually means somethi…

Yes, so much. I see why they do it if their SO knows their account but it defeats the entire purpose of knowing their history and their own patterns. Aside from that, it's very duplicitous, like there's this 'perfect contributor' image trying to be kept, and another one for issues. It's not the first time I've seen this and I don't appreciate the trend.

Aw, don't sell yourself short. It's definitely a complex subject that involves bigger political theories and I don't think anyone would blame you if you got a factoid mistaken.

while some of the RPW community happens to have beliefs that line up with some forms of feminism, that doesn't mean they are then feminist.

That "only the third wave sucks" line of thought is very misleading. The problem is many feminists (and well meaning naive people in general) portray it as being entirely benevolent and just about women having rights. That's the mistake. It's an ideology entangled in Marxist belief, it opposed the nuclear family from the start. It denigrates the role of women in the family and that's not 'just a third wave thing'.

I don't think I even had a first reaction, just a lot of curiosity. I didn't conclude anything at all from the first glance, but I knew it was something new and interesting. While I didn't have a bad reaction, I wasn't like "I found my people" either, because even though I was already over feminism and interested in male issues, I hadn't looked at it from a relationship perspective.

I disagree with this because the idea is that "you can't fix a problem unless you are facing that problem" which is a different mindset from the one that I'm expressing which is "you were never at risk of dealing with this problem because the choices/preparation/etc you made along the way drastically reduced the likelihood that you'd ever encounter it."

That falls into the "observing the pattern of someone who avoids developing the problem", which I wrote it was valuable.

I think it's a lot more about the pattern than the journey. If someone hasn't encountered a problem, I wouldn't value their advice as much as someone who has encountered the problem and solved it.

I think it sorts of create a constant feedback of distortion.

I think it has to do with being what rp calls "sigma", and how that's way harder for a woman than for a man. This isn't a RP thing, women aren't actually categorized like this.

You're welcome! And about what you said about protection on the label not being equal to the one you're actually getting on your skin, that's true unfortunately for many reasons. SPF is calculated considering you use 2mg of sunscreen per cm2 of skin area. In general, people don't apply that much sunscreen. Also, one would logically think broad spectrum 30 is much much less protection than 70 but they're actually closer since it's not that linear. This is a good post that covers these things and …

I've just gotten the Mad hippie Vitamin C serum to try for the first time! I've been trying different Vitamin C serums but it's always such a nuisance for me to repurchase and then worry about it oxidizing, since I can never find them locally.

I really like that BHA! It's very mild and perfect for constant use. Also remember that when you're starting to use exfoliators on the regular you absolutely must use sunscreen in the morning!

Yes, the intention is good, but in many ways they don't foresee how the actual execution will turn out. For example, I was raised without this bizarre approach, yet I was still instilled a strong sense of bodily autonomy. So I concluded such an extreme measure is unnecessary. Of course, had I been raised in a manner that made me feel my words didn't matter regarding my body, I would perhaps end up overcorrecting this in my parenting. Maybe the author is coming from this perspective.

I get what you're saying, and it's a balanced approach, but the article went way beyond what you're saying. You can teach your child boundaries and bodily autonomy while still maintaining authority over them. The way the article wants parents to act will make these poor children hypersensitive to touch, hyper-aware of physical interactions (how will they process how other kids relate to them?) and overall make them process the world in a very bizarre, alienating way.

LL women still want men who are more dominant than them, they just don't need more than 50% of alpha traits in a man to feel arousal. This is key! The confusion is supported by a subjective assessment of what alpha behaviors are.

I personally don't believe "celebrity" and "traditional" can go in the same sentence for women. They are careerist women first and foremost, unless they forgo stardom and give up their careers after having started a family. Sure they can talk the talk, but there are no guarantees they're walking the walk. As far as we know, that's just the image they present to the public. That's not to say they can't be deferential, but it's certainly not done in a traditional way.

Mists can be considered toners, yes, but they're also a category now, I believe! I use one of those thermal spring water sprays that do nothing and a propolis mist regularly throughout the day. Adding light layers of moisture seems to work well with my skin.

IIRC that's actually part of the surrendered wife mindset, and you have to understand the context of this is a step program for overly critical wives to stop their nagging ways. It's not a hard RPW rule or anything for every case in every relationship. It's just like how 'having one drink' has an entirely different meaning to a recovering alcoholic than to an infrequent social drinker.

Hey margerym! Well, you might not know me as I only lurked when you were a regular, but I was always a fan of GirlsBeingGirls as well as your (defunct?) blog. I'd like more insights into the married + kids life, and I personally don't look for a blog to be extremely focused in an area. Some examples: I'd enjoy homemaking and entertaining, cooking, cultural criticism, philosophy, etc. Also, if we could bring back any good GBG post to the sub, that would be amazing!

Very eye opening indeed. I know the biggest shrew in the world, and it's an utter pain to see how many of these habits are deeply ingrained, to the point that a man can't drive in peace without being criticized for every single micro-decision he makes. And really, what is the point to all of this? It makes everyone miserable.

I remember that thread, and that there was some controversy around it. The bottom line was that engaging in masculine activities did not make a better wife, and some users took offense. There was some discussion around whether or not engaging in these activities would lead to meeting a compatible man. It heavily depends on how 'rugged' a women is and what said man would want in a partner. Anyway, I'm glad you're participating in this new community.

Don't we matter in our own movement anymore? Exactly! It's coming full circle. But there are transwomen only spaces where cis women cannot be.

That's not really true. When trans people claim that they are women because they "feel like it" or "don't identify with their genitals", then they are changing the definition of what it means to be a woman from something that was defined biological and through socialization to something that can be chosen internally. I think that, as a woman, I have a right to protest, argue or reject the new definition of womanhood foisted on me. That's just how I feel. I agree with this. I am respectful of eve…

1) I found the red pill through a BP friend. He was always a redditor, and I never got into the site (I had seen it previously when noticing an AMA that interested me - I never cared for the layout). He disapproved of it and linked the TRP sub as mockery.

Did RPW resonate with you from the start?

I feel unequipped to respond to these threads because 1) I didn't find it through my SO, but on my own 2) my SO isn't from TRP or reddit 3) I found it to be true from the start.

What's there to explain? It's manipulative behavior, and it doesn't stop there.

Not only that but 'discovering' it puts her in a defensive mindset, she's already emotionally reactive and using derogatory language to approach it (stepford, slavery...).

This is true. It's also what I've felt is kind of missing of the 1-10 SMV rating scale. There's no sexy-cute spectrum but they're two different parameters of nothot-hot notcute-cute summed to result in 'attractive'. Cute+Sexy is perfect for the MMV because it calls for protection (neotenized cuteness) but also passion.

Great idea! My mother got me some cards that are mostly blank but have a little hand-painted watercolor flower on them and I like that they aren't completely blank but they're still clean looking. On the topic of cards as crafts, when I was little I was taught how to make parchment craft cards and that was fun (even though I feel they look extremely dated today anyway).

It's true, a lot of people find relationships without looking for them and it's all very romantic.

It's a nuanced debate, but a lot of intersectional feminism in practice is about being inclusive for the sake of not offending.

When you can't quite trust the man, but you're passionate about him. That makes you more fearful of losing him, ergo more available and accommodating to his wishes and him. The opposite can be said when he gives you comfort. It's a slippery slope to complacency.

What do you prefer in your own relationships: passion or comfort? Do I have to pick? Because I couldn't. Passion is extremely important to my attraction. Instead of comfort I would say "trust".

Well this is the roller coaster component of it. It's not just the fights, it's the hot sex after them.

All of the actives are lying No, lying would be stating a falsehood. "I am your boyfriend now, we're exclusive" would be the lie. In your unreal scenario ("I'll give you sex if you fix my car") she is lying, but that doesn't actually happen. In a real case scenario a woman wouldn't lie (state a falsehood) to get this favor. She would rely on being suggestive in order to get her way. Suggesting doesn't need to come to a lie, it only requires the other party to believe the deception. It's a nuance…

Just right for balancing innuendo/flirtation/suggestion without ever getting locked into explicit promises she has no intention of following through on.

I agree it's not done in good nature and I'm not defending it, but implying isn't promising. We're talking about a guy openly stating a commitment and then breaking that commitment/showing it was a lie vs. a woman feigning interest to get a favor but never actually stating sex is going to happen in exchange of that favor. I edited my previous comment to expand upon an example I think is more analogous than friendzoning. Now, if the dude was implying he miiiiight commit but never actually state s…

Active Friendzoning: "If you fix my car I'll give you sex" When does this ever happen verbatim though? (Besides porn). At worst, a friendzoner flirts her way to free favors and maybe loosely implies interest to get her way. Someone promising sex in such a manner reads like fiction to me. As long as we hold men's resources and women's sex to have the same/similar value, these two are the same deception. I think a more analogous case would be trapping a man in a sexless marriage and then freeloadi…

I read it as a joke, since the two first examples imply the girl is not actually that into the guy as the guy's version would make it seem, and in one of the examples she reads more as the one who is using the guy for free weed.

I've seen users refer to women they have never had sex with as a 'plate.' Yep, I remember this. I've seen it with newbie RPers just getting in the game, and married men using it to describe flirty interactions. I think it ceases to be a proper denoting term and becomes a means to boost self esteem. This is where theory gets tricky inside a community: Does a word mean its meaning, or is its purpose to boost confidence? And when does it matter? I've come to notice that in RP communities, it all de…

Recently I've been reading a lot of discussions around platehood and don't know whether to come to the conclusion that there's either a lot of misunderstanding/confusion in semantics, or an intentional effort to blur the lines of what it means to be a plate so men can broaden the circumstances where it applies. If ‘plate’ and ‘dating’ are interchangeable terms, then there’s no reason to use one term over the other. This is true. I’ve observed the part where it gets talked about interchangeably i…

That's true. And sometimes an apology is truly warranted, this is not to say otherwise.

You're right.

Well in the context of this conversation I meant to prioritize the relationship and family above all, which people deemed unhealthy.

This is a very good point I had not taken into account at first. I think it's a case of male solipsisim. The author is talking from a perspective of male pain alone. You reminded me of my mother and the pain she has gone through with some losses, and her growth from it has been dignified and feminine. I do however think that a more constant exposure to the pain related to male situations could eventually lead to a woman to become rugged to cope, which was his original point.

they don't give women the tools to satisfy their own needs and create their own happiness.

As far as giving the tools, what else can we do? They rest her happiness completely on his, which is codependency in my opinion.

I'd say a big difference is that we seek an understanding of male sexuality and come from a secular background, whereas standard traditionalism shames male strategies that aren't marriage due to remaining religious undertones. While at RPW the talk is superficially traditionalist because we seek marriage, there's no judgement of plate spinning (or there isn't supposed to be, anyway) and non-female-centric dating strategies in men. I think that, while RPW looks after the woman's best interests, i…

Never said she was attracted to money specifically, although I can see why you assumed that with the word status (which can be made of social proof besides socioeconomic status) My edit was basically about her showing a slightly more female-like choosing pattern in LTR mate picking vs. her casual escapades.

She isn't like a normal female though. She isn't hypergamous, but polyandrous and very sexually aggressive.

Yes, Miranda's storyline can't be analyzed by the customary TRP "alpha good beta bad" rhetoric, but going by the dominance level theory posted recently in RPW I would categorize her as LHL and then it makes sense.

Source? LittleRedBirdie'sOpinion.doc? Do you notice I am talking about alpha and beta traits? The man you call an alpha is probably balancing his alpha with good beta traits. You keep replying with your opinion as it's the final say in the matter, I am not saying "all alphas" and "all betas", as if the common man embodied just alpha or just beta. To be violent and to induce fear this way is an alpha trait even if you keep stating the contrary.

Yes, exactly. I think the whole misunderstanding is that being beta thrown around as an insult so we don't want to associate our SOs with that word.

These are alpha traits and people need to realize this. We cannot make the acceptable manly things "alpha" and call the unacceptable beta just because it isn't nice for women. Self-restraint is a very good beta trait to have.

I really liked one called Nutrition Made Clear if you want to know more about nutrition in general, I'd say it's more informative than a lot of books out there (and it did come with a PDF, thought this might have been a recent addition because many reviews say it doesn't). Self-improvementy, I really enjoyed The Willpower Instinct. It's not wishy washy and sustains what they say with stud…

Yeah, and tumblr can be the same. I've been happier since I left. There's a false sense of companionship in the type of validation that social media gives, as if my followers actually cared? It's just a huge waste of time if you become reliant on it. I didn't even count Pinterest as social media in my mind because it's like an aggregator based around organizing/collecting, which is usually a solitary hobby.

I love anonymous social media for personal use, which is why I was drawn to reddit and tumblr at first. At this point I only use Facebook professionally and to message family, but even when I was a lot on it, I used it for sharing interesting/funny articles and music, and I never acted like it was my journal to share private stuff on it. Twitter on the other hand is hard to grasp for me (professionally) and when I tried it as a personal outlet, it actually made me prone to rant more than normal,…

In no other culture, in my experiences, is this acceptable. This is more about wealth than culture IMO. In Mexico it's pretty common for any middle class family to have at least one maid, with UMC often having a maid, nanny and cook separately.

Not sure if you're asking if I personally think a certain price range warrants snobbery? Because that wasn't my point at all, I was just mocking OP for being high and mighty about a mid-range makeup brand. Strikes me as someone who would call themselves "classy".

They're definitely biased in their snarky reviews. I don't know how they're allowing them to have a rating site for other brands if they're their competitors. The only thing they've rated lower than 4 (3 stars, not so low), is their lip balm just because it comes in a pot. I have read a ton on that site, and they would rate something high because it included some antioxidants (no definite scientific proof antioxidants applied topically do anything substantially beneficial to the skin), but take …

I actually don't see the issue here. If she knows her place, it doesn't sound like she is topping from the bottom. It just means he stepped up to the male role because she was filling the female one so well. They evolved as complements, and if they weren't complementary they would have issues by now. Topping from the bottom would be "he is the leader in the places I want him to lead, but if I say no, we do what I think it's best" or "I put the idea in his head and then I pretend it was his idea,…

Paint or re-paint nails (fingers and/or toes) For retouching nails when needed, you can fill in the gaps first, then retouch the whole nail, and then go on top (after it's dry of course) with a clear polish, preferably one that mimics gel and it's very glossy. Therefore the glossiness will reflect the light and you won't see the parts where it's cracked and repainted. I don't always wear polish, so this is very irregular. Also, the more closer to your skintone the polish is, the most you can get…

Completely agreed. I'm thinking of other users that have said/implied that to accept 'obedience' and 'submission' means a woman has no will, character, or strength. I think it brings disharmony, and may encourage some users to think they are better (or worse) compared to others, simply because of the vocabulary they use. Yes, this is exactly what concerned me and why I was quick to come out and debate that notion. It's okay if an individual woman doesn't find those words describe her dynamic. It…

Yes, Stingray and Camille are. But the long discussion you had was with me! It's totally okay if your dynamic is different, I wasn't saying "your dynamic is wrong", I was saying that there was an unseen value in the words and wanted other readers of this thread to understand there was another perspective. A lot of discussions online serve this function. I might not be convincing you or you might not be convincing me, but the lurking reader has both perspectives to ruminate on. At that point the …

I am not religious and /u/PhantomDream09 isn't either, if I recall correctly. I pointed out a pattern, but it wasn't "only religious people are into it", it was more like, "most nonreligious women have a bad time with the term because of its religious association".

Hmm this is good! I have to think about something. I am currently giving up alcohol and sweets until my birthday. The alcohol part I am not sure if it counts, it's not really hard since I don't drink much anyway and I have done these ceasing periods before. But yesterday I had a hard time grocery shopping and looking longingly at a Lindt chocolate bar. It was calling my name and I had to leave it behind :c

We don't really care about it, but to answer your question what is your perception of a man's effort to celebrate Valentine's Day- or not? I would hate it if he felt forced to get me something or act a certain way just because there's this pressure to do so. I personally find the most romance in the most quotidian acts of caring, I would feel uncomfortable to be romanced extensively because I find the most joy in doing things for my man and giving gifts, not so much receiving gifts. I might be a…

/r/PurplePillDebate09/02/16 01:54 AM

Yes, perhaps. Her response here about submission really resonated with me and my experience! It could also be because of the biblical undertones to the terms. While I am secular, I don't have qualms with how they relate to religion. I know you and Camille are religious, so I wonder if the negative reactions to those words are also influenced by an inner desire to separate themselves from that as well.

Well you and wingnut are the only ones who basically said "just not my cup of tea/dynamic" (unsurprisingly for me, as I've already read countless instances of that comparison between the HH vs. LL/LH experience). If you notice, others have equated it with being a dog, not having boundaries, being disrespected (said implicitly), expecting punishment, etc. You didn't imply negativity but others did! Personally I don't even have an overt threat over my head or receive explicit orders in an uber hig…

Most of the RPWs that have responded reacted negatively to those words so I'd say you're with the majority. I am wondering if I'm a RPW since I don't see those words as blind slavery and imposed meek servitude.

Well the op question was 'what do these words mean to you' Yes, and I was bringing up a different meaning to your meaning. We weren't touching our personal situations at all, just meanings (just like "divorce" and "death" have meanings in our minds, even though we might not have experienced them). I feel like women here renounce the concept because it's bad sounding, but I was just bringing up why it too could be a virtue. I don't think it has to be god-fearing (though it can be). I see it the w…

Perhaps that is what works for you, fine. I don't know where this comes from? I am not talking about you or me, I am talking about the word in the general sense and what it has reflected in the context of a traditional marriage. But if we're making it personal... Either I follow my SO or I don't, and that is my choice everyday. That's the value of obedience, it's following even in hardship and fog. The way you answer leads me to believe you only follow him when you agree with him (or that you ha…

That's my point, obedience is not a pleasant term, but there's a reason it's a traditionally a virtue. I can see that "defer to his judgement" is the preferred term as it reflects choice and a deeper understanding of why we are choosing to follow. The word obedience seems to remove the notion of choice, so it's natural emancipated women react negatively to it. 'obedience' takes away our ability to decide I feel like this is the same argument as when people tell us our SOs will lead us to harm. I…

I'm sorry you took it as rude. Classic way to deflect accountability. It was a snippy response in all intents, don't try to turn it the other way around. The only miscommunication here is you being in denial of how much of a nuisance your Instagram habits probably are to him.

Obedience is wifely duty though. Obedience is not a pleasant word because it's doing something even when you wouldn't do it out of your own will, and it's the hardest part of not being in control. It's easier to be obedient when you understand each other roles, and the whys and hows, and are on the same page all the time. But take a more primal woman (for example a religious young woman) that doesn't quite understand, this is why Abrahamic religions tell her to be obedient because God says so. I…

but I don't think there's anything wrong with it. He's man enough to say 'I don't want to do this' if he didn't like it. So, do you legit thinks he likes it, or is this a cop out so you don't have to acknowledge that you know it annoys him but you just don't care?

Yes, in cases like tardiness I believe apologizing plus thanking is way more fitting, since it first recognizes the fault and shows appreciation without leaving space for the other person to make excuses for you. It takes the other person into account. When I first shared it I framed it as a way to respond in situations where you are trying your best but still fail along the way. Obviously if a person who is routinely tardy and unconcerned thanks me, I will no longer see it positively.

Well, the image is meant to be funny by contrasting the numerous requirements a woman has for a man vs. his simple, realistic needs. It's meant to be cheeky, not educational! :P While it doesn't mean every man is like that (or every woman, for that matter), I think it works as a generalization because men will look for meaning outside of their relationship (career, hobbies, outside achievements), while most women tend to want to be fulfilled wholly by their relationship and want their husband to…

Lurking/avidly reading since 2014. Every time we get a variant of this question, I start to write the longest thing, then get overwhelmed and delete it. I found this place because a friend referred to TRP mockingly on another social media.

It really depends on the guy tbh. I guess that's why we focus on SMV. It's more simple to know what attracts guys in general, but it's more difficult to assess what values aside from femininity are important to them. I believe SE background and not so much the woman's profession. It matters more what kind of values she was instilled growing up, religion, her relationship with her family, whether there's a lot of divorce on her family or none at all, etc. As an example, this post lists many trait…
