I am a former pimp. For around a year, I was involved in the lifestyle and turned out a few women. I noticed redpill glorifies or talks about pimping every now and again, and i have to say its not anything good. It was something i never should have been involved in or looked up to and i'll tell you why. Pimping is, and always has been emotional or physical abuse and is based upon preying upon the weak. I never hit anyone in the game or went near any kids, but my entire motivation was to completely objectify someone and turn them into an atm machine for me. most pimps who stay in the game long term develop something that looks like narcissistic personality disorder because of the emotional abuse aspect. what pimps really do, is find women to fall in love with them. once they fall in love, they exploit the feelings they have for them by putting them to work. by this point, they usually have taken control of their finances and have created enough financial weakness they can really turn up there tactics and start breaking the girl they are turning out down. Breaking a bitch consists of breaking the girl down psychologically and building her back up while getting her to do things she doesnt want to do sexually. then, they start instructing the girl to sell her ass while pocketing all the money. no woman wants to sell her ass, but they do it to please the pimp in hopes that he will finally love her. but he never does. they take the money and buy the hoe some nice shit every now and again, and spend money on themselves and on housing or other means to keep the girl as dependent as possible on them. whenever the girl protests or thinks she shouldnt keep doing it, or disobeys any of the pimps constant over the top commands or does anything to spite the consistent controlling behavior, she is made to feel like less than dirt, and undergo heavy financial abuse, psychological humiliation, and if the pimp is bad he will hit her. if the pimp is even worse, hell rape her. i've seen posts on here saying how pimps let girls go, and thats true they do. but usually by that time they have already emotionally abused her an extreme amount and don't see a point in keeping her around because she isn't making money. if you guys actually think pimps just let sources of income drift away from them just like that you are very wrong. pimps do this over and over again every day of their life, and seriously traumatize the women they are with. most die in dependent lifestyles because all they have learned is how to depend on a woman. If you ever want a good relationship, don't look up to pimps. I look back at everything i did and the pain i inflicted on the women in my stable, and i wish i never did any of it. i'm glad i changed paths but i hate to see the lifestyle that i was once involved in glorified. it's nothing to be proud of or brag about, its just abusing people for a living. I used to think it was about dressing nice and being a ladies man, having a nice car and living lavish while women provided a service to people, its not. its just inflicting pain on people every day of your life and abandoning your sense of self every day of your life. my advice to men to really be good with women, be honest, be intellegent, always outshine them, but still take time to admire them. be human, and be the best you you can be. focus on you and women will like that. but please, you guys really should stop glorifying this shit because its really a stupid proffession financially and its a fucked up thing to do to someone.
