My friend "Nick" is one of the hawtest guys that I know. Dark-skinned, handsome, muscled and ripped like a motherfucker. The type of guy who would get a thousand (hot) matches on Tinder a month and act like it's no big deal...like scrolling through a menu of options on Uber Eats, who cares?
I can already sense the incels and Blackpillers frothing at the mouth. This guy is banging every Stacey and Jessica, I have no chance, woe is me, I'll never get laid and all the rest of the sorry tale.
But what if I told you that Nick rarely bangs any of these hoes? And no, he's not a fag you dumb cunt - he just doesn't exercise his powers as much as you would think.
In fact, many hawt guys that I know are like this. For years I've tried to figure out why my own n-count is far higher than Nick and these other Chads. Religion and upbringing play a role, certainly. But the reason that I hear the most is some variation of the following:
What's the point in getting girls, I'd rather spend that time doing something productive and meaningful.
This sentiment shows up more and more now on this sub these days, especially among younger guys. At first I simply dismissed it as more MGTOW hamstering. It's one of the oldest tricks in the book - you can't get something, so just pretend you don't want it in the first place. It's like that asshat who brags that he wouldn't bang Margot Robbie or Rihanna or whoever...as if he could.
The problem with that explanation is that it doesn't apply to guys like Nick who are perfectly capable of getting girls. Nick's problem is definitely not low self-esteem or low ability. Indeed, he's one of the most conventionally confident guys that I know - popular and socially skilled, as one would expect a Chad to be.
No, the problem is a curious new phenomenon: the worship of "meaning".
It is the idea that any time not spent doing something "productive" or "meaningful" is a waste. Watching sports? Waste of time. Having sex? Waste of time. Enjoying a movie? Waste of time.
These guys fancy themselves the next Nikola Tesla, renouncing all Earthly pleasures...as if the greatest genius of modern times wasn't a total poon hound, or that the likes of Jack Kennedy, LBJ, Clinton, and Trump weren't out banging everything that moved, or that the greatest actor of all-time didn't compile extensive notes on seduction and his innumerable sexual conquests long before PUA ever existed, or that the creator of the most celebrated nerd franchise ever didn't spend much of his youth driving around in his hotrod chasing tail and getting laid (which later inspired his first hit film).
I could go on. It suffices to say that these great men took a holistic view of life. Before the business gurus, MGTOWs, and other assorted fuckheads began smearing the cultural landscape with their feces, it was simply taken for granted that a man would act like a man. Clearly there is no positive correlation between this bizarre new aestheticism and personal achievement. So why is it so widespread?
Welcome to the Blue Pill, my MGTOW friends. You never left.
This worship serves two purposes in our dual Blue Pill/capitalist society. It keeps the population believing that the highest purpose is to generate more value for owners society, and it also keeps otherwise attractive men from taking more than their fair share of the women.
The worship of meaning does appeal to the MGTOW set, though, because it certainly sounds like Red Pill. We talk about purpose and mission, but this generation that is coming up after the millennials takes everything so fucking literally.
From an early age, guys are being conditioned out of normal male desires by appealing to their sense of masculine purpose. There is no such thing anymore as simply having fun with girls. Everything must have "purpose" and "meaning." Guys walk around with sticks up their asses, unable to just relax and enjoy life. Pleasure cannot be an end unto itself under this new paradigm. Admit to enjoying the game, and you're a loser, a Beta, and so on.
Ask yourself, who does that really serve?
The worship of meaning is fantastic for Blue Pill society. It's why someone like Jordan Peterson was allowed to break into the mainstream, despite attacking feminism. The idea that you should abstain from "meaningless" pleasure, hunker down, and build yourself into the perfect male specimen dovetails nicely with that other odious Blue Pill offshoot...building a better Beta.
By the time these men complete their 20-year monk mode and are ready to start a family...something that does have purpose (how convenient!)... they'll be in the unenviable position of possessing lots of material resources but very little experience with women. They will enter marriage/LTR and fatherhood without the adult social skill set that is honed over many years of gaming women.
As far as my own selfish ends are concerned, I'm happy to let these men slide into this MGTOW/Blue Pill condition. More pussy for me.
