Q4Women: With your privileged knowledge of TRP's existence, do you now avoid all men who lift on the off chance they learned it from TRP?

aznphenix · 2016-09-20T20:41:10+00:00

So do you now just avoid attractive men in general, since theres a good chance they learned to be that way from TRP?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

This is such fucking bullshit, thank you for the laugh.

TRP may be a thing on reddit, but reddit is not IRL. You are giving yourself waaaaaay too much credit for the influence of this butthole of reddit (which is in turn the butthole of the internet).

Attractive men do not need Red Pill.

Ultra low SMP guys come to RP, and to imagine that they become ultra high SMP guys because of RP "theory" is an unfounded leap of logic of galactic proportions.

Also, all men who lift are Red Pill? Seriously? Not a chance in hell of that being true.

lollygagyo · 2016-09-20T20:17:31+00:00

I married a 6'4" feminist who carries heavy things up ladders and hangs them over people's heads for a living. Does TRP make that model??

LeaneGenova · 2016-09-20T21:16:48+00:00

I've been in a LTR since before TRP became a thing. So no, I'm not worried about it. And honestly, it's not like attractive = TRP, or liftin = TRP. Otherwise, the gym would be hella hostile.

LadyReffe · 2016-09-20T21:13:03+00:00

TRP makes up 167,000 of the 8 billion on this Earth.

Half of that number is actually practicing it instead of whining and bitching.

So no, I am not afraid of talking to the cute, fit playthings.

HigHog · 2016-09-20T20:29:33+00:00

No? I'm friends with lots of guys who lifts. They're all nice, normal dudes.

prodigy2throw · 2016-09-20T20:18:31+00:00

important: men who lift =/= TRP. and also, men who lift =/= attractive men. (necessarily, for both.) TRP didn't invent lifting, and lifting isn't a guarantee of attractiveness.

were i single... i don't think i would seek out or avoid men who lift; i'd be indifferent, probably. the lifting's rarely the problem, the guy is. i'm sure some regular, nice guys lift. they're alright. maybe not my type depending on their size, though.

Transmigratory · 2016-09-20T21:02:03+00:00

For some reason, I'll assert this applies to the reddit women who just spend their time online on sites like this... also those who go on tumblr etc.

aznphenix · 2016-09-20T21:20:10+00:00

I would go beyond this rhetorical question to a much simpler one: is that strong, muscular, sinewy shining star of a man a natural, or a gym-"fake?" Women are often horrified to learn that a muscular man had to put in considerable time and effort to sprout his secondary sex characteristics, and placate their inner fears with the comforting notion that the man was "naturally like that" or at best "works/worked manual jobs and is into hiking, swimming, and racquetball." To a woman, the idea that a man had to attend gym classes to earn his musculature is a sign of a massive fraud who's raping unsuspecting dewy-eyed damsels with his charlatan-derived attractiveness.

So to all men out there, do NOT tell women you train!!! I can't emphasize this enough. Give 'em the standard "I used to work a manual job and play beach volleyball in my spare time" spiel if queried as to the origins of your sweet precious gainz.

rulenumber303 · 2016-09-21T01:05:30+00:00

How do you detect that someone adheres to a particular philosophy that gives them particular feelings about the world when they are trying to hide it by just not saying their feelings about stuff? Well that would be the little things, expressions that momentarily cross their face, their precise way of putting things, how they prioritize stuff, the times they take longer to answer because they are formulating an untruthful response. All the little stuff that adds up and is the reason why total immersion in character exists as a technique in the acting profession.

Hairbrainer · 2016-09-20T21:13:01+00:00

Do you think TRP invented lifting? Do you think that of the men who lift, the number who did it because a subreddit suggested it is that high? Because that's retarded.

lollygagyo · 2016-09-20T20:17:35+00:00

I've always felt incompatible with men who lift, so nothing's changed.

My brother and my best friend lift, though, and I'm pretty sure neither are RP. That's just a standard fitness thing these days. Even I went through a lifting phase, haha.

I doubt many (maybe one or two) of the attractive men I've encountered are RP and if they were I think it would be likely to show in their attitudes.

shoup88 · 2016-09-20T20:26:06+00:00

Well, I've been in a long term relationship since well before TRP existed, so it's not a practical concern for me.

If I was single, I wouldn't be too concerned. I've rarely been attracted to guys who lift - I'm more into the slim hipster look. And if he did work out because of TRP, it wouldn't bother me as long as that was his only takeaway. TRP has some valuable advice as long as you don't get sucked into the overall silliness and hyperbole.

I imagine his terpiness would come out in other ways if he was a true devotee.

COPCO2 · 2016-09-20T21:05:42+00:00

It sounds like you don't know anyone who actually lifts weights.

[deleted] · 2016-09-20T23:15:42+00:00

Men were lifting long before there was ever RP.

There are as many different kinds of men of who lift as there are men.

If I want to avoid RP men I just listen for the giveaway phrases: "wall," "hypergamy," "cock carousel," "AFBB," "shit test," "branch swing," "enjoy your cats."

RPers are nothing if not unoriginal.

TheChemist158 · 2016-09-21T00:02:51+00:00

I've always avoided men who lift, TRP doesn't factor in. Not my cup of tea.

MisgenderedCactus · 2016-09-21T01:54:50+00:00

I have a sex partner so I don't date often (maybe a date or two every 6 months?) but the guys I'm already attracted to don't lift anyway. My "type" is generally my height (5'7") or slightly shorter, nerdy or geeky, and on the dad bod level of musculature. Sometimes a bit pudgier/thicker if they have a body frame that carries extra weight well.

So...yeah. Unfortunately this post makes the assumption that females all like ripped guys who lift. Even if that was true, why should anyone automatically think that the dude is only sculpting his body due to TRP? I'd most likely think he's just into working out, not that he follows a certain ideology.

ozymandias271 · 2016-09-20T21:14:21+00:00

Redpillers don't want to commit to me because I'm a short-haired hairy-armpitted feminist slut, so I don't really need to worry about it, fortunately.

shogunofsarcasm · 2016-09-21T21:19:40+00:00

Lol no. Most guys I know who lift do it for other reasons. I meet people in the gym or outside of it and decide from their personality whether or not they "may be rp" which isn't a thought I normally have because most guys I talk to are nothing like that.

[deleted] · 2016-09-21T22:50:38+00:00

Hell no. I ONLY date men who lift because I have been lifting seriously for years, including powerlifting for 2 years. I don't use pink dumbbells and only do cardio. I am disciplined and LEAN. I only date lean, fit men who lift heavy shit.

Also you assume women are turned off by RP. I ignore the beta angry misogynists but I like confident men into self improvement.

[deleted] · 2016-09-20T20:59:20+00:00

Most guys I know belong to a gym and go to varying degrees. I'm also not convinced twerps lift more than the average guy. The pictures I've seen of red pillers look no fitter (or less fit) than an average sample of men.

darkmoon09 · 2016-09-20T21:41:53+00:00

Not a woman but I don't think it will change much. Plenty of guys were lifting way before the Internet even existed you know.

[deleted] · 2016-09-20T20:19:49+00:00

Or do you still find yourself attracted to them, but are constantly paranoid of them browsing TRP in their spare time?

Probably this, if I'm being honest. If only misogynists would just be proud of their beliefs and allow themselves be ostracized by the rest of us :P

My strategy thus far has been pursuing guys who have handsome faces, but are skinny-fat and have never been in a gym; or guys who are fit from their job or from playing sports with friends, not from lifting.

anitapk · 2016-09-20T20:20:46+00:00

I agree with many things on trp (more with RPWi), however if I were living in a place with many redpillers of avoid guys with bad parent figures and pussified fathers. That would be my biggest way of discrimination.

Truecelacct · 2016-09-20T20:46:08+00:00

Like someone else said, the odds of running into a red piller irl are incredibly low. I'm in college so most guys lift. I would be ridiculous to avoid them all just I case I possibly ran into someone who used trp. I'm assuming I would be able to tell from their personality of they felt superior to women, so I would probably just not hang out with them. Not hard! :)

GridReXX · 2016-09-20T22:56:55+00:00

No.

My network isn't exposed to Reddit. They surf ESPN and Twitter.

wuboo · 2016-09-21T00:11:22+00:00

You come to the funniest conclusions.

[deleted] · 2016-09-21T00:47:40+00:00

lol how delusional do you have to be. Just because you realized that fitness was important at whatever age you read TRP doesn't mean that's how most men figured it out.

Tell you what, go poll every guy at the gym how many even heard of TRP. Most will look at like you like the socially clueless, cringeworthy person that you're.

goatismycopilot · 2016-09-21T01:48:31+00:00

Going to the gym existed long before TRP. I go to the gym myself because my job is high stress and it is an enjoyable physical and mental outlet. I do not put much effort into trying to detect somebody who into TRP. If somebody does not treat me the way I want to be treated in dating then I just don't spend any more time with them no matter how physically attractive they are.

aznphenix · 2016-09-21T04:48:13+00:00

That'd be pretty hard to do considering I lift. But I don't necessarily find someone attractive just because they lift (not to mention I'm already in an LTR). I'd also like to meet an RP IRL so I can actually see what they are - keyboard words don't convey a lot of the same things real life conversations do. But I'm guessing they won't want to be friends anyways.

[deleted] · 2016-09-21T12:54:21+00:00

Of course not. I would actually like to date a Red Piller, to see what they can pull off.

I am naturally curious and wouldn't pass the chance of dating a RPiller even if I wouldn't sleep with him (I am volcel for personal reasons)

i_have_a_semicolon · 2016-09-20T22:12:10+00:00

It's obvious when you're talking to someone who doesn't view you as an equal.

Also, I have no need to filter my dating pool further. I fell for my bf before I found red pill.

I actually have educated my co-workers about it because I find these topics are interesting to debate :)
