Thoughts on Alexander Grace?

Honesty his videos have been becoming more and more red pill leading. Especially with titles like “what a women really wants”, “never do this with a women”. He comes to these conclusions by randomly approaching random unsuspecting women with questions that would take a considerable amount of time to answer. Then whatever 1 second long wait process answer they give he presents it as thoughts of all women. But the worst offense of him would be his puzzlement. I’ve always hated it when guys talk about women like their puzzle pieces. Or act like they are completely different species. People who say this is what women want, or don’t want. As if we’re all inside a beehive coming up with our answers with each other. His videos always seem to seem a bit emotionally abusive. Examples would be the whole never complement a woman video And to basically withhold affection until sex.

On the linked video:

The strategies he proposes seem rather spiteful. Even if they were effective, I don't know if that would also make them morally sound.

On his videos more generally:

In any situation as complex as the ones he usually talks about, there are always multiple forces at work simultaneously. Evolutionary psychology certainly has its merits, but it is also very hard to make good predictions based on the hypotheses and theories it produces. That being said, there are significant differences between men and women. On a cognitive level, these are however burried underneath a lot of other stuff. Personality types, attachment styles, cultural reference points and all kinds of learned behaviour. My impression is that unless you're talking about an immediate responses; something like threats (e.g. a spider falls onto your hand), or rewards (e.g. seeing a notification for extra reddit karma), I think the evolutionary waters are muddied rather quickly.

Finally, although I like that he is trying to reason with some this evolutionary psychology stuff, it's often applied in too naive a manner, and almost always presented as the only perspective.

On your views:

On a reasoning level, intellectual capabilities do not vary by gender in any meaningful way. (Un?)fortunately we aren't pure reason. I think the dream of species-wide cooperation is only possible by taking our differences into account, not abolishing them.

In the linked video he definitely seems to be throwing around a lot of red pill lingo, such as low quality woman. Also the comments section you can see the term Kings and Betas. If it’s not direct red pill ideology it certainly seems geared towards that crowd.

I think he's typically hilarious for what he's worth.
He tries so hard.

i mean i find some of his videos really good and he has smooth flow when he talks plus he also presents data/stats in some of his videos.

but sometimes i don't like when he uses words like low quality or mild trp theories to support his bias.
