I don’t want this to come across as a bunch of moralising, but the amount of degenerates I’ve met or have heard about lately has been really pissing me off.

When I say degenerate, I don’t mean guys who know how to exploit some natural loopholes and capitalise in certain ways to build attraction in a respectful way (which is what game should be), I mean guys who treat women like utter shit, violent and abusive, but who always seem to have a new victim - and how nearly every girl you speak to in her 20s onwards has had a run in with guys like that. No wonder there are so many broken people

I’ve seen female friends obliviously stumble into their den, I’ve known guys who literally hate women and treat them with contempt who somehow do well.

And then there’s this sense that you’re sometimes considered dull or lifeless for treating someone with consistency and respect, possibly because that other treatment has become almost normalised or set the bar for emotional spikes way too high

I’m not tempted to follow down the path of the misogynist but it’s disheartening to see that mindset being so often “rewarded”. I feel that if you hate any shred of decency you couldn’t be a complete cunt and sleep soundly at night.
