How many men admit to following trp In dating?

TermAggravating8043 · 2022-12-02T16:36:46+00:00

if you say that, ur dumb imo.

You should take the good info and incorporate it into urself to be successful. Just like pickup artists arent supposed to go around saying they are a pickup artist, they just use the knowledge for the their benefit.

Same as if you are jacked and girls ask if you lift. Ur not supposed to say u go to the gym 7 days a week, ur supposed to say "i used to lift and just play basketball with friends sometimes". Instead of telling her ur entire lifting program and steroid cycle.

How many men actually admit to potential dates or even family members, co-workers etc that the follow the red pill?

Zero if they have an above room temp iq

Are you proud to follow it?

If by this you mean am I vocal about it then no

Would you say it helped or hindered you in dating?

Definitely helped

Do you think women are attracted to men that follow it or is it meant to be a private journey?

The end result is attractive

Would you be honest if you were asked or would you try to hide it?

I've never been asked, but I'd absolutely hide it. No value in telling people I took dating advice from maladjusted weirdos on a bodybuilding forum

I have enough social calibration to not say anything about the “redpill”. I just talk about trad dating roles and ask vetting questions. There is no point bringing it up.

ZealousidealAd7191 · 2022-12-02T18:04:13+00:00

What do you think “following the red pill” even means? Anyone who learns something true about women has acquired “Red Pill” knowledge. Any successful man in the dating world regularly deploys RP knowledge, whether or not he “follows the red pill”

2022-12-02T17:23:49+00:00

If i did actually consider myself a red pill guy then i would never admit it. Did i have some issues that some redpillish content helped me with? Sure, but then again you always have to think critically about what is actually helpful and what is just toxic.

There is a line between "Work out and become assertive" and "Make her feel easily replaceable"

The first thing should be common sense but isn't. The second one is just petty.

Fancy-Respect8729 · 2022-12-02T17:16:20+00:00

I would never mention Red pill in real life. It's just info you incorporate into life or reject. And it has nothing to do with what anyone else thinks is good or bad or ethical.

It either works and improves your life or it doesn't. No obligation to speak or debate.

2022-12-02T19:53:34+00:00

As most people have already said you don’t need a label to take lessons or advice from something. Personally I’ve never and will never consider myself redpill because 1. I hate ideological labels in general and 2. There’s plenty of stuff I disagree with or don’t fully agree on.

I’d argue most men though who are continually successful with women (casual sex) do things that would be considered “trp” whether they know it or not. There’s functionally no other way to be a man that frequently engages in sex with multiple women unless you’re a swinger or a 9/10 in looks.

MissionAd399 · 2022-12-02T17:04:44+00:00

I would never admit or brag about. It’s not necessarily something to being proud of, just knowledge that reflects in my actions.

Due-Lie-8710 · 2022-12-02T17:47:31+00:00

not redpill but i would never do that because in retrospect its beneficial to me to not admit it, because alot of women date alot of redpill guys they just dont know the guy is redpill, being good with women isnt dependent on it

purplish_possum · 2022-12-02T18:12:39+00:00

You don't need to label a strategy to follow it.

stats135 · 2022-12-02T18:13:20+00:00

I dont "admit" anything, since its so self evident. I dont roll in feminist circles. For my friends, coworkers, and family members "TRP facts" are just "facts".

Its like asking if I admit the sky is blue. Who would I "admit" to? Who would be stupid enough to ask me that question?

When I dress nice, my colleagues ask me "whats her name?". They don't ask if I think women are shallow and base their attraction off of the status my attire conveys. They don't ask if I only dressed up to increase the chances of me getting laid. They KNOW the answer to all that to be true already. The only question is who the girl is.

Useful-Indication225 · 2022-12-02T18:45:16+00:00

The first rule of fight club…

The way I see it, there are some elements of TRP that unfortunately work. I say unfortunately because Women seem to inherently love it if you’re a minor dick but I would like to simply be a nice person.

modidlee · 2022-12-02T18:59:10+00:00

Only a fool who's looking to get into endless arguments would talk about being redpill irl. But what's funny is Kevin Samuels (RIP) was one of the most controversial redpill themed content creators. My GF at the time just happened to come to my house when I was watching Kevin Samuels Livestream and we both laughed at it and enjoyed. She didn't get all mad at what he was saying. She actually said herself that a lot of women today are "crazy and delusional." And no she's not a "pick me" or "tradcon" woman.

How many men admit to following trp In dating?

Have you seen women lately?

Many of them believe that "trp" is a racist white supremacist murderous rape cult.

The "other many" write articles that made the former ones believe it.

LaloTwins · 2022-12-02T21:38:59+00:00

Lol TRP explicitly says to never mention TRP IRL

Women here will call guys incel based on their TRP talking points and I agree most men if they argued with women IRL the way they argue with women on here would never get within a mile of pussy.

But a real TRPer knows how to deflect well or joke around a topic

Arguing’s a waste of time

DrinkItInMan11 · 2022-12-03T02:20:26+00:00

Any Red Pill guy with any wits about him wouldn't say it. That's just common sense.

Lovers691 · 2022-12-02T18:06:27+00:00

How many men actually admit to potential dates or even family members, co-workers etc that the follow the red pill?

The redpill is seen as a toxic, misogynistic ideology by most people if you admit to following it you are a dumbass.

Are you proud to follow it?

No, the parts I follow are just observational facts so I’m not anymore proud I follow it as I am that I accept Newtonian mechanics.

Would you say it helped or hindered you in dating?

I’m still self improving but the gym pushed by some redpiller is improving me, also game/social skills.

Do you think women are attracted to men that follow it or is it meant to be a private journey?

The sexist parts, no but the self improvement high value parts, yes.

Would you be honest if you were asked or would you try to hide it?

If asked and I think they are open minded and willing to listen to what I like in it and the flaws then yes, if not, no.

flaws in it?

-their focus on looks is the gym and not enough on face through skincare or on style.

-Some redpillers like FnF push dysfunctional relationship things like men cheating on their wives instead of being real and just saying you need a side chick

-Over reliance on some poor evolutionary psychology research

-Some treating relationships as adversal

Key_Witness_3515 · 2022-12-02T17:03:45+00:00

I’m sorry but if you’re redpilled, especially still in 2022, you’re a fuckin idiot.

SmarmyPapsmears · 2022-12-02T17:07:18+00:00

How many men actually admit to potential dates or even family members, co-workers etc that the follow the red pill?

My wife knows, as I've learned about it after we were married. But this stuff isn't like 'shocking' to her, as I was naturally redpilled prior to meeting her; I just didn't have the autistic terms to go with it.

Are you proud to follow it?

Sure.

Would you say it helped or hindered you in dating?

It didn't help me, like I said I was natural. I never watched any podcasts or youtubers or read any books about it. I was purely redpilled from experience. I will say that RP idealizes my experience: sleeping around until finding a low n woman to marry.

Do you think women are attracted to men that follow it or is it meant to be a private journey?

Women like honesty; not necessarily RP but the things that come with it

Dafiro93 · 2022-12-02T17:38:56+00:00

Do you ask a woman her weight? Do you call a woman fat? Do you tell her she looks bad when she asks? You don't say the quiet parts out loud.

I follow the marriage pill

Any_Championship_654 · 2022-12-02T18:08:14+00:00

I wouldn't say I 'follow trp' but if somebody I care about asks me my opinion on a certain topic I'll answer honestly. Same as I 'follow' any particular political party but if somebody asks me about policies I'll answer in a way which they might put me into some box.

OhDestinyAltMine · 2022-12-02T19:17:36+00:00

Honestly i started entirely the opposite: manosphere terms and concepts were totally repellant to me, and I started my involvement here making fun of TRP people. Ultimately i read more sidebar / canonical stuff vs just listening to unhinged terminally online ppl spout a collage of conflicting grievances… and i sorta got it.

Heterosexuality is honestly pretty ridiculous and filled with so many “this is why we can’t have nice things,” and from the male pov the female sex drive feels very much part of that. Basically I recognized that i was already applying many redpill concepts, but just giving them fun sublimated libfem-approved names.

I still think the manosphere is practically destructive, but i very much understand why it exists.

Dr_Fujimora · 2022-12-02T20:05:41+00:00

I don't need pills to get laid.

DumpApe135 · 2022-12-02T22:29:47+00:00

I don't follow the red pill but the most sexually sussful guys I know seem to follow it but without actually knowing about it.

They talk to multiple women at once through dating apps, bars, clubs and parties
They dress nice and have a no-lose player attitude and while dressing nice is not redpill they wear things like gold chains and clothes that signal wealth
They are typically wealthy owning nice cars and living in upscale apartments in my city, redpill talks about women liking wealth/money and I believe that 100%

Just to add I have also seen it play out where if women knows a guy gets around they are more interested which is pre-selection which is either red or black pill

cromulent_weasel · 2022-12-03T02:30:00+00:00

If you don’t follow trp or don’t anymore was their anything about it you thought was stupid or could see flaws in it? Did any aspect of it work that you still use?

I don't follow TRP because I think it trains you to think of women with contempt. The advice that is essentially PUA stuff I think is deceptive and manipulative and I think a poor foundation for a long term relationship. I also think that the bag of tricks is really best for naive or damaged women, and they aren't the sort of women I'm trying to establish a long term relationship with.

resultsmatter1 · 2022-12-03T03:50:08+00:00

I don’t talk about trp unless it’s with friends who are also aware of the pills.

YtBlue · 2022-12-03T04:06:11+00:00

If you bring it up then you aren't red pill in the first place. A basic TRP rule is to not bring it up because of Social undertones.

MaliciousMack · 2022-12-03T15:32:08+00:00

Been around the sub for a few years now, and I’ve had time to soak up some insights from trp.

First, admitting to trp is not worth it. You’ll have to explain, and by extension justify, some of the weirder ideas, lingo, and community segments, and While familiar I’m uninterested in defending that. Telling people just makes that stand in for what should be your own unique identity.

There are gems of knowledge you can get from the sub (trp vanguard being often the most helpful) but none of it is gospel. Hell, even the field reports are spotty in how insightful they can be. I think they make a good point in breaking down what can boost your success, but a lot of info is too general and lacks nuance to be really useful.

Warm_Gur8832 · 2022-12-03T23:33:22+00:00

Absolutely not.

It turns individual human relationships and connections into a weird video game.

I can understand ppl wanting to look for broader trends as a way of understanding an abstract thing like romantic or sexual relationships.

But sociology is just a terrible thing to apply to individuals.

On the micro level, most things are too complicated and nuanced to paint with a broad brush.

4Enjoyer_4444 · 2022-12-05T19:31:46+00:00

I would never say out loud that i follow the red pill but i do believe that it helped my dating be more successfull. But to be honest that does not make me happy. Think about it, why does actively hating woman make you more successfull with them?
