Hypocrisy in RedPill

If I were giving advice to a salesman I would say "don't trust other people only yourself" and "get other people to trust you". That's not hypocritical.

Where on the side bar is the part that says women should always trust men and men are never wrong?

I must have missed that RP lesson.

Or you just don't know what you're talking about, most likely scenario.

TRP is a guide that gives advice to men, what women are 'supposed' to do is for RPW and others to discuss. TRP is here to give advice to men.
There's a big difference between following blindly and trusting in a partner whom you've selected, and will value your input.
Hypocrisies abound, especially in the dating world. It's a fact of life and a waste of energy to complain about it.

Where does TRP say that? Trp is not a strategy or advice for women and doesn't tell women they should do anything with regard to men

A woman must be totally naïve and trusting and allow herself to get burned.

You know, I've read my fair share of divorce horror stories and a common trend that I've seen:

When a woman gets burned, she basically walks away with nothing that belongs to the man.
When a man gets burned, he walks away giving the woman a significant chunk of his assets and as well as his current and future earnings.

Women aren't "supposed" to do anything. Men and women each exercise their own agency.

VirgoRooster · 2015-12-29T12:56:58+00:00

I don't think a woman should unreasonably trust her man in a marriage. My problem with Western marriage is that a woman and a man technically don't even need to have sex, just to "be married" and from that point forward the woman--who may have accomplished nothing in her life--can makea fortune just by filing for divorce. That's fucked up.

When it comes to sexual strategy only one gender can be "on top". RP advocates for a sexual strategy where men make the decisions, BP advocates for a sexual strategy where women get to make decisions. There can be no equality in the real world, one person will always have more power than the other at the end of the day, even if it is a .1% difference.

Do you seriously believe we think that the man in a couple can't ever be wrong? Just ponder that for a few seconds.

Now consider the following situation. A couple wants to go out for dinner. They need to pick a restaurant. Once you've accounted for taste, price, class, location, allergies and religious restrictions, two options remain.

We're just saying, for most people, the man and the woman are both better off if the man decides and the woman follows his lead.

Now ask yourself, how wrong can a man get picking one or the other restaurant, and how worse off can a woman be for letting him do that?

It depends if you are taking about emotions or feelings. Men and women burn each other emotionally all the time, but men by far are burned financially substantially more often. This is not in dispute.

That's not hypocrisy. It's condescension. It's basically treating women as inferior to men. It's similar to the way a parent would trust himself or herself to cook food on a stove but would not trust an 8-year-old child. Children need discipline. Women also need discipline.

Cyralea · 2015-12-29T16:35:37+00:00

It's smart for a man not to be trusting yet there must be something wrong with a woman not to have a childlike trust.

Guess who has more to lose in a divorce?

Further, guess which behaviour is more likely to attract a highly successful, dominant male? Loyal, kind, submissive behaviour, or combative, aggressive and untrusting behaviour?

bleed_blk_blu · 2015-12-29T16:35:39+00:00

If this were true, I would compare it to child birth. No man can ever be sure the child is his before birth. In other words he must be trusting and allow himself to get burned. Still I see men everyday having and raising children.

No. There is not a single hypocrisy in RedPill. Go read the sidebar. See? It doesn't say there is a hypocrisy, so there isn't any.

IMO you probably didn't read much. You probably saw a single post which suggested this and you felt compelled to make a thread like this.
