I grew up as a traditional guy who was raised by a mother who had much difficulty with my dad. I saw her sad, and so I decided I would be a better man when I actually grow up. I would be rich, take care of myself, help her out, stay non-judgmental, and be by her side to validate her fears and emotions.

My mother is more beautiful than my dad. But my dad is narcissistic who believes himself to be more handsome. I never liked this but she was always crazy after him. She would talk shit behind his back to me but when he showed up, she would switch side and attack me.

I kinda understood, my dad behavior was bad and at the same time very attractive for my mother.

And my dad had line of women chasing him throughout his life even when he got married.

After achieving some success, I became mean, rude, aggressive, and dominant. While this helped me gain attention from girls who were interested in me for my status, I did not engage in casual sex with them due to my values.

So, I know Red Pill is a successful strategy, but I can't use it because I can't treat women that way. I can't be with a woman who I am not responsible for.

I can't become so heartless as to only see women as objects of desire and reproduction, and not want to stay with them long term.

Red Pill is short term because modern society does not allow for the dominance of women in a way that could lead to a long-term relationship. Why? Because of restraining orders, white knights, women having more rights, and laws.

This makes Red Pill an outdated strategy, and the only thing you can achieve with it is sex and reproduction, and even that is only possible for a short period with a specific woman. So, it has nothing to do with "love" and absolutely nothing to do with "raising your kids right."

Guys like me can't suppress our nature to treat women in such a disrespectful way.

I am not afraid of death, and I can physically fight when challenged, but I can't bring myself to use women as Red Pill suggests.

Did my mother just emasculate me? Or is a man supposed to be ruthless with women as Red Pill wants him to be?

So if I was raised wrong there's no way I can ever fix my instincts regarding women.
