Having personal success however you define it (money, freedom, independence... whatever) is far more important than TRP alpha or beta personality type casting.

The "alpha" strategy treads too thin line on just appeasing the bad characteristics and lack of agency on the part of women. This has been increasingly evident as I've browsed TRP forums and noticed a lot of men praising themselves for being successful with women, simply because, they have in effect, made themselves into better utilities for women's aims at their own great expense. They have made themselves into great actors. And presumably, they better keep up that act or the whole thing falls apart.

I've been watching some Karen Straughan and to her the problem with feminism is it discourages female agency. http://owningyourshit.blogspot.com/2011/04/my-beef-with-modern-feminism.html While I don't have any specific goals for women (they should have their own), I share her perspective in that I am only interested in human beings who seek advancement by viewing themselves as agents, not victims. The "alpha" strategy discourages female agency and exacerbates the root cause of the problem. It's because women lack agency that they demand alpha strategies to be appeased in the first place.

Just for an example of what I'm thinking of as "the alpha beta smokescreen" should be discarded, or at least just viewed as a stepping stone... simply having a reasonable amount of money and a typical RP understanding of what female nature is, will garner you more sexual success than trying to be alpha as it is cast on TRP (if sex is something you seek).

I don't mean to tie the analogy specifically to money, I have found the same strategy works however you define your own success. Following that first, and you will also not have to surrender who you want to be to some idea of an "alpha" male and take on the role of an actor if that's not who you are or want to be. I can only conclude that while "alpha" strategies may work, they are inferior in terms of personal satisfaction and overall life satisfaction than simply being yourself and knowing female nature. What good is success if you are no longer who you want to be at the end of it? Refuse to commit to anyone that would interfere with going your own way and instead focus on acquiring success by your own terms and definitions. This is the most effective path, whether you seek sex or not.
