Is Red Pill Woman only related to parts of the world where women already have their rights?

The Red Pill is a reaction to Anglo-Western feminism. Red Pill Women values align more closely with the Western Christian patriarchal family, not necessarily only seen in first world countries, but the majority of the members will be because of the online platform (Reddit being used mostly by Americans). Red Pill Women is not concerned with the sociopolitical climate and customs of the Middle East.

For starters: Being masculine and being a "shark" is unnecessary to be a CEO and isn't fighting for equal rights by any means.

Next, you can be feminine and ambitious simultaneously. You can also be feminine at home and dominant at work. Most of the women here (and most women naturally) aren't interested in devoting their life to work, which is necessary in many important roles. It isn't satisfying for most women, which is what brings people to this sub's ideology.

Lastly, most people on the Red Pill and here think the Patriarchy is a good thing. It means something a bit different to them than to feminists.

Edit: Unnecessary commas

RPW advises being someone that men care about and want to help. That's useful in pretty much any country.

That depends on how you define "rights". If your you think it is your "right" to have women in parliament, you are mistaken. If you think that the path men take is the path to happiness for women, you are mistaken. If you think the only power in the world is the power that men possess, and to achieve that power you must act like a man, you are admitting the feminine virtues are valueless.

I think RPW values are important everywhere, and more so where people start to think that men are the only people worth being like, and casting away feminine values in the name of "progress". The reality is the world needs men and women, it doesn't need men and more men.

As in typical feminist fashion, you are looking to change things, without first understanding why they are that way. It is not mearly by accident that every single major civilization has gotten there with "a patriarchy".

Just look at this law you bring up as proof of "evil partrarachy", the law states the a rapist must marry his victim. You look at this and say "how horrible it is we force victims to marry their rapists". But, this law isn't to punish the victims, it is to ensure security to them. If you live in a society where chastity is the gold standard, a rapist can ruin your livelihood and take away any chances you have of being married and financially taken care of. The point of a law like this is to ensure that he takes responsibility for his decision financially by marrying her. Of course, you do not live in a society like this, hense why there is a law on the books, but no longer enforced. But, you should still think about things before you attack them as unfair.

If a women is raped, who should be responsible for her? Should some random guy, who had nothing to do with it, be responsible for her? Should she have to be responsible for herself, when she didn't have to be before? Should the country take responsibility? Or should it be the person who committed the crime? Now if she wants to be responsible for herself, I personally believe she should have that choice, but the rapist shouldn't have a choice.

Two points:

1) I believe there are ways to promote female rights without having to become a man to do so. I believe you can lead from the top without resorting to screaming or being a shark. Even now the part of the "Western world" I come from has nowhere near equal representation in management - or even at the ground level! Despite that, I don't wear shoulder pads or speak as one of the guys. I am calm, happy and considerate. Several people have pointed out that I am a "breath of fresh air" and a pleasure to work with, even though I am a woman in a management position.

2) I have a "submissive in the home, assertive in the workplace" motto too - I don't believe being RPW in any way makes it easy for anyone except my captain to tell me what to do or make me feel inferior. I don't just let any man tell me what to do - I let the one(s) I trust give me direction. In the workplace I act with facts.

That isn't to say I believe it is OK to burst into tears in the middle of a meeting - or to shout, either! I think self-control to be a very big part of effectively running a business, and a home.
