What happened to this sub? It used to be about improvment

The people asking for advice will always represent the "worst" of a sub because you are seeing their problems. This is ok when we also have members writing instructional or theory posts or even discussions.

For some time now the overwhelming majority of the sub has been advice based.

I encourage people to put up more content and discussions. This keeps the spirit of the sub on track and helps guide new readers.

I can help if ladies are interested in collaborating with each other or simply want a set of eyes on a post before posting.

I agree, it seems to be a lot of, “I feel as though I’m unattractive or x,y,z, so is there any hope for me to find a masculine man?”

It’s no longer a reliable source for me on femininity, marriage and dating strategy, etc. Though in the past I used this sub to help me drop my “hamster habits” and become a woman worth marrying (& I did end up marrying an absolute dream of a husband) it seems like all I see are posts complaining or seeking reassurance that they might find a partner. Very few posts bring real sustinence to the table anymore.

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE our sub and community, I just hope we can take a turn for the better soon!

My guess is men from the red pill are infiltrating this sub.

I noticed this as well and I'm the new member who is still somewhat unsure and building the full picture in my head of what RDW means exactly, so I got alarmed over a few posts thinking I might have had made quite the mistake when joining in on discussion and such. Mostly because I was recently blocked from another sub that I like and think is important because of my participation in RDW - and I thought, you know, what for? This?

Honestly, I'm glad that this is something pointed out here as not really okay, because I would have had no idea.

There was a post a few days ago where the lady asked how to give more to the husband now that their kids are older and she has more time on her hands and someone quoted 1950' book that said "wait for him at the doors when he comes home and smile" and I immediately thought of the movie The Stepford Wives where the women were turned into a robots made to serve the husband.

Like I may be wrong and I would actually like to be corrected but: a red pill women I thought, is someone strong and feminine in a relationship based on traditional values from which both sides benefit, where they support each other, and where both grow together and help each other to be better versions while maintaining the feminine and masculine side of the relationship accordingly.

I'm in for the femininity, traditional values and building an actual relationship, not to be turned into a robot. Am I at the wrong place?

RPW readers, in general, are much more reluctant than TRP readers to write articles and start articles. This means that the group is much more question-driven than TRP is. You, yourself, /u/luckymonstera, have written only three comments and this post in RPW.

In general, complaining about lack of content is a lot easier than generating that content, or even getting others to do so.

I recall one young lady I worked with personally, through PM, all the way from "I'm so lonely, why don't men pay any attention to me?" to a marriage proposal from a cardiothoracic surgeon, who then procrastinated, dragged her feet, and eventually vanished when I asked her to give back by writing a single "field report" summarizing what she had learned, what worked, what didn't, etc.

I've come to accept that women are generally not as reciprocal as men are... receiving value doesn't really instill most of them with the urge to give value in return. As such, RPW is, and will continue to be, largely a question-and-answer sort of forum, and won't really develop any progression in understanding of the male mind.

That's okay, this is only a side project for me, and individual non-baking eaters can always be removed if they complain too obnoxiously about the lack of enough cookies to go around.
