This topic was a question recently posed in a thread in purplepilldebate. I wrote out the following response, but upon finishing it, realized there was no point in sending it to the intended recipient because no part of it would be read, considered, or understood.
This is nothing new, but rather than chuck it into the ether, I decided I would give it its twenty-four hours here in the off-chance that it might provide insight to someone who's in the initial stages of internalizing TRP.
Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that RP men vilify women who date assholes. There are two reasons for why they would: frame and consistency.
First, accepting such behaviour culturally, without criticism, is a wholesale acceptance of each individual woman's frame. In other words, men do not get to have an opinion, or if they do, it is subservient to the woman's.
There are two parts to the issue. One is principled in that it is contrary to the RP idea that men retain frame in their social interactions. The other is more practical in that the woman is promoting - not necessarily consciously or explicitly - that what she is doing is 'good', 'liberating', or 'admirable', and NOT that it is solely designed for maximizing her personal gain of a) getting good lays while she is at her sexual peak, but then b) also securing a comfortable life when she is tired of banging random dudes who cheat on or abuse her.
The male equivalent would be a man banging strippers and sluts in every hole and then at the age of thirty settling down with a young, barely-legal virgin who dotes on him left, right and center. Good gig, right? Yes, for the man. No man in their right mind would expect a feminist to accept this construction being promoted as 'good' in the mainstream consciousness, yet the reverse occurs and is assumed to be valid. TRP exposes why that is fucking absurd.
RP men recognize that the female frame is not in their interest, even though it may be 'insert-feminist-qualifier-here', so they hang a lantern on it as a warning to other RP or RP-seeking men. In doing so, many get angry and use offensive language, which ends takes centre stage in subsequent criticism by RP detractors. In that way, it's much easier to whine about mosquito bites than to understand why they exist in the first place and reflect on the ecological niche they serve.
As an aside, what often goes unrealized in these discussions is that TRP promotes taking advantage of the fact that women enjoy sleeping with assholes. We have no problem with it, since we stand to benefit from it. A RP man doesn't get butthurt over who you sleep with. A RP man ensures that you sleep with him, or that you are cut off from access. This is the essence of spinning plates. It works because the women want to sleep with that particular man.
The second reason RP men vilify this behaviour is because of the inconsistency in the societal messaging. The message they get from their friends, family, co-workers, peers, and society at large is that they should support that behaviour; that they should accept another's frame; that they should give up their interests and their power at the negotiating table, and that when they do, they should expect to be rewarded for it.
The message is, when you sit around and respect women and accept their frame, they will see what an awesome, liberated, respectful, sensitive, feminist man you are, and because you are so progressive, you will never want for sex, sexual fidelity, or emotional support.
Which, of course, never happens. The odd guy manages to luck out, but once the honeymoon phase is over the relationship has an expiry date. Others end up being virgins until their mid-20s, or chumps who get cheated on. The aggregate effect of this inconsistent messaging is that a bunch of men feel betrayed and at some level understand they got short changed in the sexual marketplace. Only for them there is no BBB, only a group of women who are completely unsympathetic to their plight and a group of men who are relieved they managed to avoid a similar fate. These men did not reach their potential. They were not the best versions of themselves. They got sold a line that was contrary to their personal happiness and then got shit on by everyone for compromising their integrity.
Understanding this inconsistent messaging through personal failure results in each man realizing he doesn't want to be that man who, once established in a career and home, has to sort through the scraps of emotionally-bagged women with a partner-count higher than their age who, only now, will deign to fuck them - and then when they do, it is only once a week missionary with the lights off. Blowjobs? What? Did you mistake her for a single, college-aged woman or something? Silly you and your misogynistic ass for wanting to get your dick sucked. And anal? Oh, ho, ho - you may inadvertently raise your SMV for being such a funny guy.
Why would any sane man settle for that when he can capitalize on his inherent ability to get the 'upper hand', and most of all, what he wants out of his sexual relationships and life as a whole? TRP shows him how to do that. And while sometimes questionable depending upon intent, criticizing the behaviour of women reminds him of why he needs to.
