I wouldn't say it's "sexist" as a categorical term. Do men have some advantages and privileges in society? No shit they do.

Do women have some advantages and privileges in society? Look at a college graduation, a nightclub line, or a prison, and then tell me that they don't.

In any case, I see a truly feminist, egalitarian society as a pointless pipe dream, much as I see Marxism.

I think the average woman has more advantages than the average man in America.

No. the Red Pill believes that the truth of love and relationships isn't what we are taught but something different. Then it explains what they are and how to get ahead it a society like that. It's not about exploiting it's about doing the best you can for yourself. There is not point fighting the feminist machine 100 million cogs strong and being labelled sexist, misogynists for trying. Rather enjoy and add value with your time on earth.

Lets not forget, if men tried to make the change in society the witch hunt would be real.

Another way to put it would be "don't try to stop an avalanche with your face".

Feminism is the dominant paradigm. Feminists may not agree with this because they think they have not gone far enough, that their dominance isn't total enough, but it is feminism that is driving change.

So why cannot men do the same thing?

Because of the inherent differences between women and men.

You see, feminism is an inherently submissive philosophy. Its basic modus for change is to construe something as unfair, and appeal to the sympathy of those with the power to make changes. It depends upon the "patriarchy" even as it claims to wish to dismantle it.

Doubt me?

Well, why do feminists want to force men to hire more women, instead of motivating women to start their own companies and hiring women?
Why do feminists want to "teach men not to rape", instead of teaching women how to protect themselves from rapists?
Why do feminists want Title IX instead of building their own institutions?
Why do they want VAWA instead of across-the-board enforcement of preexisting laws against assault and such?

I could go on for some time. Point is, the basic feminist power tactic is the appeal to sympathy.

That works very well for women. It does not work for men. This is not due to feminism itself, or culture in any form. It is inherent within the human genome. Humans, both male and female, come pre-wired to see women as inherently valuable, and men as having only the value they achieve.

Men can't do what women did, because it won't work for them.

Fortunately for men, they still have power that they aren't using. That power is the power inherent in the fact the men, not women, create and sustain civilization. Everything from roads to cellphones to electric power to food to police to shoe leather is provided by men.

Men cannot be empowered by appeals for fairness. But they can go on strike.

That's what Redpillers are. We are men on strike. We work only for our own benefit. We give women neither marriage, nor children, nor money.

Animals are sexist.

Get over it.

Sex is part of the cycle of life and it works the way it works.

If you want to be out of that cycle, be my guest, your cats are waiting, and they also fuck and are sexist.

Fucking sexist cats.

I'd rather take the red pill as simply accept the world and its people for what it is and pursue your goal using this information.

CleverNeologism · 2015-03-03T22:17:50+00:00

No.

Taking the red pill means to understand that reality is sexist, and that the basis of this sexism cannot be meaningfully changed, as it is deeply rooted in biology, psychology, and the evolutionary pressures of millions of years. All of society's attempts to do so only obfuscate the truth and make people miserable.

OlBastard · 2015-03-04T01:58:16+00:00

To be able to apply prescriptive measures to a situation, you must understand it wholly. I'm not a sociologist, anthropologist, or psychologist. I don't know what would be optimal for society. I can only make observations and use them in order to better my own life.

RELTIH88 · 2015-03-04T01:30:12+00:00

If you mean sexist towards men then yes. First you have to prove that this society is sexist first in order for your premise to be true. The red pill isn't exploiting anything. We are only exploiting the truth.

Uninspiring_Username · 2015-03-02T20:19:25+00:00

You should have added "exploit it for cheap, meaningless thrills" because its not like TRPers are achieving actual rewarding results.

LaLaJoy · 2015-03-02T16:47:34+00:00

Yes, and RPers think such a sexist society is justified because it benefits men and is highly restrictive towards women.

namae_nanka · 2015-03-02T23:29:43+00:00

The problem with sexism is? Especially in the realm of sexual relations where the physicality makes it real?

And of course feminists blame the system because otherwise what power could they wield? It allows them tremendous leeway to do whatever the hell they want with the culture.

Why should their forcing of equality be better than the inequality of patriarchy?
