Don't Settle.

Disclaimers

• This is going to be a rather long post, but since I respect your time I’ll happily include a tldr at the bottom of the post.
• The advice within this post is meant for those who feel as if they are already among the top males. If you are red-pilled and actively implementing the advice circulating this subreddit; chances are you’re either on your way to being a top male or are already there.
• If you’re a complete beginner; this post isn’t for you. Build your value. Don’t implement this mindset until you’re worthy of doing so. Of course, if you’re not at the top yet you can still learn from the diagnosis of the problem; but the solution to the problem will only serve to inflate your ego if your SMV is too low.
• This bears repeating; the solution/attitude I propose only works if you are truly worth something.

Introduction

As I’ve matured and improved myself as a man, I’ve noticed my male friends beginning to settle down/date with women who are, let's be blunt; far below them. I’m sure you’ve all seen an example of such a phenomenon… a decent 6/10 man with lots of potential lumbering around with a 4/10 woman who is steadily gaining copious amounts of weight.

At first, I questioned my friend group.

“Maybe it’s just them,” I thought to myself as I tried my best to seem enthusiastic about the 4/10’s Instagram my friend eagerly showed me, “maybe it’s just their eagerness to settle down, or, get another notch in their belt that’s making them entertain these women.”

I dismissed the problem until I saw more and more men, young men especially, walking around with women who aren’t worthy of their attention.

Before I go on I must make it clear; I am by no means a perfect man. I’m still quite introverted, not as strong as I want to be in the gym, and don’t have an extraordinarily high n-count.

But I can say this with certainty; the women I’ve dated and courted have usually never failed to turn heads. When I do settle down or date a woman she is easily one of the prettiest and most intelligent in the room. I pride myself in making sure the woman I’m with is intellectually and physically superior when compared to your average woman. Without further ado; let’s begin the body of this essay by pinpointing what the problem is.

The Problem

Our hyper-consumerist culture and matriarchal social structure have indoctrinated men to believe that they’re worth less than what they really are, or have the potential to ever be.

Think about it.

• Men are constantly bombarded with commercials that portray men as idiotic cavemen that can’t operate without women.
• The horrendous narrative of “toxic masculinity” is being crammed down the throats of the youth to shame them for wishing to embrace their masculine biological imperatives and improve themselves.
• Women are being held in higher esteem than men and men are being subliminally told to worship any woman that entertains them because they are “lucky to be picked.” Think of an embodiment of this thought experiment as a queen coming down from her throne and courting a peasant; according to the logic permeating through society, every woman is a queen and every man is a peasant lucky to be in her presence.
  
• The west's obsession with “progress” and consumeristic materialism has coaxed men into unknowingly following quantity over quality; this manifests itself as men sleeping around with whales and low-quality women instead of building themselves up to high-value enough to settle with an actually quality woman. Some of you are guilty of this. ( When I refer to quality women I’m not referring to unicorns; I’m referring to women that have an IQ higher than my shoe size that actually realize the importance of the complementary and subordinate nature of their femininity and take care of themselves physically.)
  

I could go on but I believe my point is clear; men have been taught to be grateful to even catch the eye of a drooling goblin of a woman instead of harnessing their potential and take pride in who they are and where they’re going.

Now that we’ve labeled the problem it’s necessary to address what will happen if the problem isn’t solved.

What happens if men settle for less

If a majority of men continue to settle for less and allow themselves to sleep around with low-quality women, the degeneration of our culture will accelerate due to men continuing to fall into the narrative they’ve been pushed into instead of rebelling against it by being aware of the problem and acting the opposite of their programming. If you’re on this subreddit, you’re well on your way to acting the opposite of how you’ve been programmed; but I’ll be forward and say I believe a majority of you, myself included, need to be even more rebellious and flat-out refuse to even consider being caught dead with a woman beneath you both aesthetically and intellectually. Enough of settling and sleeping with women who are faltering in either category and aren’t actively improving their situation. You’re wasting your time.

The more you validate mediocrity the more mediocrity will spread. This applies to women and in life.

The Solution

I briefly touched upon the solution in the previous paragraph; be well aware of your worth and your potential and absolutely refuse to entertain women beneath you. Trust me, I’m speaking from recent experience; it’ll be a huge waste of time.

Remember that oft-repeated postulate “you are the prize?” Now’s the time to actually act like a gold medal and not a fucking participation trophy handing yourself out to women who aren’t worth it.

Does this mean you may not be getting laid every week because you’re not having sex with retarded bimbos?

Probably.

Does this mean you’ll have to stop nine spinning plastic plates from Walmart and only spin three plates of fine china?

More than likely.

Does this mean you’ll have to stop coming back to that 6/10 when you’re horny and actually do something that builds your value?

Indeed.

Some of you may disagree with me and allow me to respond to you all at once; I’m not interested in hearing your coping mechanisms for refusing to realize your worth and return to the natural order of things. High-value people with other high-value people and low-value people with other low-value people. You’re not red-pilled if you’re a 7/10 man improving oneself if you’re sleeping with multiple 4’s and 5’s. You’re just a manwhore who validates their “masculinity” through women.

The embodiment and transgression of the solution

For those of you that are more inclined to believe field-reports and anecdotal evidence; I’ll bring up two personal stories. One in which I fail to maintain the mindset of someone who is actually among the elite and one in which I do. Let’s begin with the failure.

The Failure: A couple of months ago I began another year at university. I met a woman who caught my eye in one of my courses and began flirting with her. She was good to look at. Brazilian 8/10. Only problem was; she wasn't very smart. She tried to get me to go to meditation with her to “get me out of my head” and she recommended bland self-help books; very contrary to the philosophy and psychology I enjoy reading in my downtime. Eventually, I grew tired of her and contemplated cutting her off after she told me more about her past. Very typical girl. Rich father. Raised in Hawaii. Moved to go “experience life.” (We all know what that’s code for.) But the shortest straw was pulled when she told me she considered switching her major to Women’s Studies because her major was “too hard.”

Needless to say, I got rid of her. It was my fault for even being around a woman of such low intellectual caliber.

The Embodiment: This is a girl I’m still in contact with now. We’re not dating anymore, but when we were she was a head-turner and absolutely unforgettable. I met her two years ago and she’s also older than me by about 4 years. This girl is a 9/10 from Eastern Europe with an insane amount of kinks. She’s dangerously intelligent in the feminine sense; she’s read The Rational Male and The Game and is well-aware of the existence of the manosphere. When I asked her why she knew so much about the manosphere she merely said she needs to “know her enemy.” After she said this I knew I needed to tread carefully, but I was also delighted because she was both hot and intelligent. Someone worthy of my time. As I said we still talk to this very day. A majority of our talks are about abstract topics and every once in a while we’ll exchange nudes or something and go out to dinner.

Conclusion

This post is elitist. I’m urging the top men to actually honor their place as top men and only consider allowing top women in their lives. I’m urging the men with potential (practically every man) to realize their potential and refuse to settle for mediocrity. This post is about more than just women; it’s about life itself. Don’t settle. Don’t compromise. Know your worth and act accordingly.

tldr; Remember that oft-repeated postulate “you are the prize?” Now’s the time to actually act like a gold medal and not a fucking participation trophy handing yourself out to women who aren’t worth it.
