Want to start off by saying I'd consider myself a Redpilled male. As a descriptive ideology, most of the things the Redpill describes are real. I think the percentage of women negative aspects apply to is usually exaggerated, but as a tool for better understanding female nature and intersexual dynamics, the Redpill has a lot of good advice.
What I don't like though, is when TRP compares the male and female experience, and tries to conclude that the male experience is harder or worse.
I think on the whole, being a woman is way harder than being a man. Men tend to project their desires onto women and from this perspective its easy to see why men think being a woman is great. Our physical and material desires are really simple. Being able to get sex any time and having someone take care of us while we sit at home do housework and play video games would be fucking awesome.
But if you're going to acknowledge men and women are different, you have to acknowledge that women just aren't wired this way physically and emotionally. You can be frustrated with the way women operate, but understand that male sexual urges are just as foreign and strange to women. It isn't fair to pick and choose how women should be. TRP is about acknowledging reality.
Thats why claiming women have it easier or better is silly. Because they don't want the things you want.
The ease of getting partners is muted by women needed more things from their partner to feel fulfilled. Women have a higher criteria. You can argue this makes women unreasonable, but telling someone how to feel is still projecting your needs.
Biologically, women have a much more dangerous and complex game to play. I AGREE that women have a slight edge in dating but when you look at their actual desires and needs, accomplishing their goal of a happy relationship with a stable HVM who won't leave them is really difficult.
Not only that, but the standards women are held to lead to a series of lose lose situations. Being independent enough to take care of yourself, knowing that your looks may fade and a man might leave you, makes you less attractive to men. Learning to sexually pleasure yourself and enjoying your own orgasm makes you a slut. You're young and trying to figure out your life but once you're 35, you're not useful to men anymore. This is a major shit sandwich. Women who don't have their lives together early run the risk of missing windows or screwing up opportunities due to immaturity, which men can obviously make up for.
My last point is that outside of dating, men have every other advantage. Being physical stronger, having more endurance, and testosterone, means men have little to fear from the environment and other men, whereas women have to fear both. Needing to rely on men is probably frustrating for women. It's another lose lose situation.
On the whole, being a woman is harder than being a man. Men are just sexually frustrated and our sex drives being so high clouds our vision. Men would literally die to get in some wet coochie, so it skews our perspective. I'm not saying our sexual needs are invalid either. But I'm saying not being able to get laid vs the amount of things women have to juggle is a pretty huge gap.
