Blue pillers, what parts of red pill theory do you believe are true?

everyone should make getting and staying in shape a goal. You'll look better in the here and now and you'll age better.
everyone should carve the time out of their day to groom themselves, reflect, and read
if a guy is interested in someone, he should be direct with her and not pretend he only wants to be friends.
if she's just not into him he needs to move the fuck on. Attraction can grow over time but there needs to be some kind of spark. There's no convincing someone to want you.
supplication is tremendously unattractive
excessive neediness is tremendously unattractive
there's nothing wrong with casually dating several people at once and it's a great way for people with busy schedules to incorporate some intimacy in their lives.
sometimes you'll click with someone but it'll never develop into anything more than occasional banging. That's cool, don't feel obligated to jump into a relationship just because you're compatible on some levels: a friends with benefits relationship that goes sour will set you back a lot less than a long term relationship that goes sour. Be picky about who you get serious with and don't let the rejects guilt trip you.
there's nothing wrong with choosing not to get married, although it's especially important for anyone making this choice to cultivate a social safety net.
revealing that you care too much about someone gives them power over you.
agonizing over an ex or a friend who won't date you long after it was effectively over is a waste of time and most guys caught up in that cycle just need to get laid.
the immediate aftermath of a breakup or particularly harsh rejection can be excruciating and it's OK to be angry about it for a while. The average guy doesn't have as many people to talk about those kinds of feelings with as the average woman, and he's likely to get a lot of uninspired platitudes and not much in the way of constructive criticism.
porn inspires compulsive tendencies and has really fucked up a lot of men's sex drives and ability to relate to real women sexually.
Tinder and other dating apps are a raw deal for most dudes.

Everything from evolutionary psychology.
Everything that overlaps with Men's Rights (just about).
Everything that overlaps with academic feminism (just about).
RPW's approach to relationships is mostly good, even though I can't stomach tradcon.
"Communication is key to a relationship!" and "Just be yourself!" are both shitty pieces of advice

Staying in good physical shape and health. But then again, that should be a must regardless. We shouldn't need to have a subreddit to say this when it should be implanted into our minds from day one. If you don't see any reason to stay in shape then you are just fucking lazy (unless of course you not being in shape is due to some health condition).

That's about it......... Other than that, I simply see the whole red pill thing as toxic....

-Confidence is important

-Get rid of the mentality that you have to treat women like fairy princesses (I think we should get rid of chivalry all together)

-Men face a lot of issues which are not covered in a Feminist analysis with Patriarchy

-On that same point, modern feminism has quite a few issues itself and I don't identify with it

-Men and women are different (I view this as more of a statistical thing however)

-People of all stripes shouldn't let their emotions get to them like they do

I think that might be it. I really don't like red pill crap. Now I am off to feminize all the males. ;P

What women say their preferences are and what they reveal their preferences to be through their actions are often shockingly different. Sometimes to a degree that actually disturbs me as a guy.

That women don't feel the need to go out there and achieve something great. I believe that it's because the media commends a woman who is confident to be as brave and achieved as a male solider. As young children, girls toys limit their interests to nurturing and beauty, whereas boys toys have endless possibilities. It gives women the idea that if they're confident or whatever then thats good enough.
