Fellow RPrs,
About 6 months ago I unplugged my self from all social media I was heavily active in (instagram, facebook, twitter and tumblr) in an effort to improved my self and the overall quality of how I spent my time. And while self improvement was the main reason, it wasn't the whole picture.
It's a non disputed fact that men and women spend just as much time online as one another it's how they spend the time thats drastically different. Where men dominate web spaces like reddit, wikipedia, and other online forums that promote rhetoric and content based in fact; women dominate social media like instagram, facebook, twitter etc that focus on WHOS doing the posting and not WHATs being posted.
A few days ago out of curiosity and a new perspective (thanks in part to all of you) I logged back into my instagram. What I found disgusted me then turned into just shear amusement. The primary function of instagram, and female dominated social media for that matter, is women posting half naked picturess of themselves, obviously because thats the only thing thats interesting about them, in order to get fake internet points and compliments from their friends to boost their extremely fragile egos. Also it serves as a function to increase their perceived personal stock in an effort to attract the highest bidder (usually wealthy man) to provide for them and to continue to feed into their personal paradigm that equates people liking you with self happiness. To me this really demonstrates the futility of feminist efforts as they have done little else for women than make a bunch of self entitled ladies who'd rather take 150 pictures of themselves on a sat night just to post one online to feel good. (btw if that picture doenst get enough likes they'll delete it).
But what really disgusted me was not what the women were doing (they're predictable) it was what the men were doing. Why the fuck are so many guys buying into the girls posting half naked pictures of themselves by liking the photo or telling them how beautiful they are and how much they want to date them. All this does is inflate their self image and lowers whoever is liking it, which makes that guy someone of lesser value and no longer on the radar for high value women. You know why day game is so fucking easy? Because women arent in their comport space and no longer know how to deal with a man that comes up to them in person and tells her that shes going on a date.
While social media can wind up getting you laid, it is much less effective than doing it in person. And while social media can be used responsibly, it is often times a tool of insecurity that you'll use to use as excuse from engaging women when you go out. Please do your self a favor and stop catering to women in their spaces and remember your value.
