trp is learning how to conduct business within the sexual marketplace so you get the best deal possible; basically its sexual economic theory.

putting what you learn into practice is up to you.

Looked through the posts and what got up and down voted.

I'm among those who think this sub in practice covers somewhat broader topics than just what's mentioned at the sidebar. Those who want to focus solely on sex and seduction IMO would be much better served at /r/seduction.

TRP is a collection of ideas. What you apply it to is your choice. "The red pill" symbolizes choosing reality (what exists in front of you) over fantasy (what you think SHOULD exist, what other people think exists, what society tells you).

So you take it from there. If you want TRP to be about how to navigate your career, meet a good woman, have kids, raise good kids, etc, then that is fine. TRP is not an academic discipline, but if it were, it would be most similar to a social science like economics (not quite a hard science, but not subjective in the way English is). An economist might spend his life studying economic theory and it's application, but the rest of us will learn the basic ideas of economics and then apply them to our chosen discipline and life.

TRP is just a collection of ideas. To collect those ideas and then do nothing... well, then TRP accomplishes nothing in your life and won't be "about" anything. If you apply TRP to getting laid, TRP may be "all about" sex and women to you. If you're married, TRP can be about how to hold frame and have a mutually fulfilling marriage. If you're fat and weak, TRP can be about getting disciplined, strong, and ripped.

The reason TRP will generally gravitate towards casual sex (spinning plates) is because that is what most guys want and have trouble acheiving in our modern society. But that doesn't mean TRP theory is limited to casual sex.

What is this subreddit all about?
Read the sidebar - do the homework.
Lurk. Join the conversation. Then decide for your self. The Red Pill is just an admission that the truth is out there. You decide what it is and what to do with it.

This subreddit tells me how "feminism" is screwing up our society more so than Monsanto is screwing up our food and I completely agree.

Monsanto's a terrible company, but at least Monsanto is trying to artificially improve food.

Feminist Monsanto would say you should just eat rotten, rancid produce and not shame it for falling short of society's oppressive patriarchal standards.

Paraphrasing Jack Donovan here, buta large part of the conflict is that feminism focuses on trying to create "good men", not men who are "good at being men". TRP is focused on becoming better at being a man because that is what is more important in all aspects of life.

TRP promotes putting yourself first in a society that has programmed us to think that conforming to it's absurd restrictions are in our best interest.

You'll get some very biased views in this sub but the underlying message is to always improve yourself. Things get obscured sometimes with the hate for feminists, and sometimes all women, but the true essence of wisdom here is to be the best version of yourself you can be.

You'll here a lot about the Sexual Market Place and Sexual Strategy but all that does is help you to realize how much you've been brainwashed to believe that you have no options in life besides for the ones given to you.

The Red Pill is you waking up to a world with endless possibilities.

I think that the red pill is much more than sexual strategy. It's a way of living your life, not a magic trick to make women fall in love with you. It's a moderate viewpoint with exceptional conviction. It is a way of changing your life to enable you to be more than and better than you are. It's about how to think in order to become and to be a man.

deepsouthscoundrel · 2014-01-10T02:00:55+00:00

TRP is about sexual strategy.

Dude. The term "The Red Pill" is not meant to emphasize that the truth is painful.

In fact, swallowing the pill opens you up to a better life than staying plugged in ever could. The pill is liberation from a lie. And that lie isn't beautiful. If you still think it is, you aren't quite there yet. Once you swallow the pill, you realize how empty and sad the lie is. You pity those still plugged in.
