CMV - RP and BPwomen here are talking at cross purposes here because the women RP are complaining about are not the ones on this subreddit

These kind of women are great, its their elevated standards that become impossible to meet. If a woman is a successful phd candidate, wealthy etc her hypergamous nature requires even more from her prospective mate. Men dont have the same requirement. There in lies the dilemma. Obviously for a career woman who wants kids a stay at home dad would be perfect as two career driven people dont make the best parents but unemployed house husbands dont have the same appeal to women as wives do for men

No, it's not that. If it was then AWALT wouldn't be a concept. Don't worry, I'm probably a much bigger snob than you. I think what those career posts show has more to do with the kind of girls on Reddit than it does with anything else. And when it comes to the TRPs/MRPs I'd bet not many of them are annual subscribers to their local symphonies or ballets. (Don't bother telling me how you saw ABTs Romeo and Juliet this summer lol I'm just speaking generally)

Plus, they're always banging on about how they don't care abut a chicks money or educational level just her attractiveness.

The one thing that might make girls here "not the ones" they are talking about is that you've all got enough IQ to figure out what and how you have to do to keep a man happy and enthralled and you can do it easily if you put your mind to it and are inclined to do so.

a woman doing a PhD in physics or who is an attorney is...

...less likely to be a good partner and a good mother.

This type of shoulder shrugging has gone on before, but it doesn't translate to progress.

This isn't a CMV, because we don't have a needle pointing to what demographics are participating. Much less, do we see everyone who visits, or holds an opinion and does not comment.

I've seen women with >= Master's Degrees cheat on their wealthy, well-educated fiancés with the physique competitors and male strippers I hang out with. Until the ladies of PPD can prove they've been married for 30+ years without straying and without the sex life dying, I'll continue to take their word for what it is, text on a monitor (and probably half-truths at best).

LOL the idea that most women on reddit are geeks, nice girls, physics PhDs or whatever is nonsense. It's just that the women on this site are desperate to think that women are just like men so everyone upvotes the small minority of women that actually do have interesting jobs and aren't sluts.

Besides, AWALT. Women may have different goals and aspirations regarding dating but it doesn't change how they fundamentally operate. It's a biological function so I don't see why any level-headed person would complain about it, it just is what it is.

Besides, no one cares if you go into STEM or not. The coolest, nicest girls I ever met were girls who liked tumblr and travelling and had no career ambitions at all. TRP hates women who lack self-awareness and/or are cunts.

Wish that were true.

My Ivy League educated ex wife was every bit the stuff of RP nightmares before I discovered RP.

If anything, such women have huge student loans that they use former BP betas like me for, before shacking up with tattooed alphas that they actually desire.

Most high-flying career women are still hypergamous. Few would date or marry a man significantly lower on the pay scale, in a field far less prestigious than their own, say a blue-collar worker like a plumber.

At the end of the day, women are still women, regardless. If they defy expectations in one area, there will be several other areas where they display more typical behaviour. They are not going to completely bypass all the things that women tend to do.

Havent you learn already that everyone on reddit has PhD and earns 6 figures?

RP and BPwomen here are talking at cross purposes here because the women RP are complaining about are not the ones on this subreddit

I think that these two groups are at cross purposes because, by and large, the BPers and women don't seem willing or able to entertain the notion that RPers might actually have a point and a righteous grievance. They tend to trivialize and minimize RP complaints and grievances on a regular basis.

The funny thing is, if feminists, BPers, and other such female nationalists were actually worth their salt and lived according to their own stated principles, the type of woman described by RP would not even exist at all. Thus, RP would not exist, if feminists and their fellow travelers truly practiced what they preached. The fact that most of them don't and seem to want to have their cake and eat it too - that's where most of the counter-reaction in the "manosphere" comes from.

So, as I see it, the onus is currently on women to figure out what kind of "equality" they want and make it known in no uncertain terms. In other words, feminists need to either shit or get off the pot. But they routinely deny that there's any contradictions or inconsistencies in their camp at all. They act like everything is hunky-dory, that women are perfect and don't need to change at all. That's where they're wrong, and it's coming back to bite them.
