After revisiting this sub today, I just want to give some perspective and clarity. I think many men are left wondering what is even true after shrugging off the brainwashing of TRP.

You can still build confidence and pursue the kind of women you wish after detoxing. I think toxic ideologies take off because there's really no alternative. There's a lack of nuance nowadays. Many young men get confused because "just be yourself" really isn't great advice. "Be the best version of yourself" is

Self improvement really is the only dating advice. If you want a fit woman, gotta get fit yourself. Want a woman who's jovial and friendly? Smile a lot and crack some jokes

Things that are toxic and untrue:

  • Women being hypergamous cheaters(this one is not even grounded in the biology of the human species, but I digress)
  • Women are liars
  • You gotta be THE MOST ALPHA and you better be insecure and fearful of not being so at all times

Things that ARE true:

  • Being fit will help you with women
  • Doesn't hurt to dress well and get a nice haircut
  • Women like ambitious men with hobbies and passions
  • Most women biologically want to feel protected (maybe join a martial art, lift some weights)
  • Confidence is important

That's it. Wanted to type something real quick to reach out to at least one man who feels lost at sea. There's really not a lot of positive resources for men nowadays when it comes to dating. Or women for that matter. These are things I would want someone to have said to me 5-10 years ago

Edit: Also just wanted to mention dating sites are toxic and I think it's a good idea to opt to meet women in real life. I think dating sites will further warp your outlook on women. As well as rejection being a good thing, women do you a favor by rejecting them and vice versa. Redpill people create a false perception of options by presuming that "all women are terrible" AWALT as you would. You don't have to go the other way after pushing away TRP is my point in all this. Peace
