Women: We want men who show emotions

Also women: Men who show emotions are pathetic

This more than anything else redpilled me a couple of years ago. Once I really internalized what many women in my life DID rather than what they SAID, I saw the truth of things.

As a result of this, I have much better relationships with all people, both men and women. Redpill was the biggest life hack I've learned in my life.

Many mothers raise their sons to be "open and sweet and kind" to women, and many sons go face-first into the friendzone wall when they try to take what they learned into the sexual marketplace.

Likewise, many sons grow up to be men who look for women who will love them like their mothers did, not realizing that many women don't want to love a man that way at all. It turns them off in the same way that a 500 lb angry screeching feminist would turn men off. Even more, maybe. At the end of the day, only your mother will love you like your mother. After childhood, it's time to grow tf up.

Once you grow up, see how it really works, realize that you're going to have to adjust your wants and your behavior to adapt to reality, and grieve the loss of your innocence for a while, there is a lot of success you can have when you embrace the mindset, behaviors and communication that will make you successful in the sexual marketplace.

I realize in retrospect that this is a redpill comment, and this isn't a redpill group, per se, but I still feel this post builds on what u/Wildhouse83 wrote, given that many women (and certainly feminists) say they want one thing, but actually want another, leaving many men bewildered, because they don't have an understanding of what's happening, or any tools to change future outcomes.
