Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.
It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.
I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

Original Text: There have been a lot of discussions on both this subreddit and other forums about how modern men feel lost and lonely and have issues dating women. As a result, a lot of young men wind up joining toxic communities like Incels or MGTOW or Red Pill or other Manosphere stuff.
A lot of previous attempts for non-traditional groups to deal with disaffected young men have apparently come across as tone-deaf or patronizing or even outright useless instead of helpful. Pundits like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson are offering a clear path for boys to feel like a valued alpha straight cisgendered man. Meanwhile, a lot of advice from feminists and LGBT allies and other identity groups is rarely more direct or precise than "just be a good person" or "be honest" or "focus on yourself" and "treat women like humans". This isn't bad advice, but none of this alone will necessarily lead to a man achieving the sexual intimacy or positive body image they desire.
So today, the empathetic & intersectional individuals on r/IncelExit will help create a detailed guide to aid cisgendered heterosexual/bisexual men start & sustain romantic/intimate/sexual relationships with heterosexual/bisexual women. If we don't want more men falling into the Manosphere, some pro-feminist groups should provide a viable alternative, or at minimum, actually create a framework or program on how to create a healthy interpersonal relationship. There are endless topics on how heterosexuality or interpersonal relationships can be problematic. Today, we can demonstrate or display what positive male heterosexuality looks like, and how men can achieve that.
I haven't had a lot of girlfriends, and I come from a non-Western culture, so I can't offer any good romantic advice. The one thing I will say is that there is no omnipresent phantom "woman" or phantom "man" for that matter. People can have many different likes, dislikes, mentalities, standards, etc. regardless of gender. Instead of the goal being "having sex with women" or "appealing to girls". The goal should be "connecting with a particular group of women" or "getting close with the demographic of people I want to date". Generalizations can be very dangerous. There are also no guarantees in life.
