In my university years I got to know a girl who was in her early thirties. She was pretty attractive, reasonably popular with the guys, and kept in shape. She was a qualified martial arts instructor, regularly hit the gym, and practised yoga. When I first met her I was convinced that she was more of the conservative type. She would always keep quiet in class, and dressed in a way that did not reveal much. As I got to know her however she gradually opened up about her prolific sex life. This was following a recent breakup with a foreign guy who had been travelling around the country with her, and for whatever reason decided to call the relationship off. More than likely it was because he wanted the extra mobility to travel around and get lots of different girls, while she had started to get serious and wanted to settle down. I was struck by how open this girl was about her sexual experiences and previous relationships. Whether it was because of the recent breakup, or the vast range of her failed romances, she struck me as incredibly jaded. She’d slept with lots of guys in her life, but still described herself as conservative – desperate as she was to avoid the double standard. Soon enough we started to become friends – yes, I sunk to the level of ‘friend’ as I was turned off by the potential of STI’s, and was also jaded about women given that I’d been through my own breakup recently. It was a way for both of us to rediscover the different motivations of the opposite sex and for me specifically, to consolidate my MGTOW tendencies.

At the time she said that she was only going for doctors and models from now on, and that she was being much more selective with the guys she chose. Interestingly though, she couldn’t seem to understand why the 35 – 45 year old men she was talking to didn’t seem to treat her seriously, or why they only cheated her like a sexual object. In ignorance of her rapidly fading sexual marketplace value (SMV), she kept her high standards, and eventually ended up starting a relationship with a model who was touring around the city. At this point I was strongly convinced of the irrationality of female sexual attraction, and was also slightly disgusted that she seemed to lack the insight that this guy was just using her for a quick fuck. Eventually she caught on to what I knew right from the outset, and after each weekend she would message me to complain about how the guy kept messaging her asking for sex when he was drunk. Instead of being a nice beta and providing emotional support to her I chose to stay out of this fiasco. However, as she went through the ins and outs of this farce of a romance I couldn’t help but feel a sense of pity. Here was a girl who had spent the entirety of her twenties riding the cock carousel, and rejecting countless beta providers in favour of alpha douchebags. To my dismay, after the model got sick of her and moved on, she continued to seek out doctors and models, apparently oblivious of the need to reduce her standards and seek out a boring beta provider who is naïve to the game. Thankfully as the MGTOW movement spreads these men are becoming increasingly rare. This instance showed me what happens to girls who ride the cock carousel in their twenties – they risk missing the boat later on.
