The feminine imperative is a term Rollo coined that describes the invisible hand of a united female front to optimize hypergamy.

Rollo uses this term sometimes like a conspiracy theory to fall back on that just explains 'things', and in other times he uses it like it's an archetypal energy in the collective psyche. The former is at best missing the point, while the latter is ironic considering his dislike of Jungian psychology.

I'm going to nail down exactly what the feminine imperative is and how it's involved in society aka the sexual marketplace.

The only conspiracy theory involved with the feminine imperative is hypergamy. Fortunately, we all know this is a true conspiracy to win in the game of the sexual-social marketplace.

So our starting place to understand the feminine imperative is the acknowledgement that a (sexual-social) game is being played. In this game we know that ALL women are always looking to win (hypergamy), and that only some men are looking to win (us).

Women playing this game know that all the other women are playing the same game.

Of course any admission of this is a violation of the first rule of fight club.

Women know that even if some men are playing the same game, other men are playing a different game.

Women use a limited amount of tools and strategies for playing this game.

The Red Pill and other groups understand what these limited tools and strategies are.

Just pick one and search for it. Girl flakes. Girl doesn't text back. LMR. ASD. etc...

We have 'em all down so well we have acronyms for all of them!

The feminine imperative is another such strategy, just a bit more difficult to recognize due to its meta nature.

The feminine imperative is actually a meta strategy used by women who recognize the benefits of socially positioning their brand of 'woman'.

It works like this:

The female players of the game all realize an advantageous strategy independently of each other for optimizing hypergamy.

This strategy is a game of social positioning over the dumb males who are playing a different game, and thus are easy targets.

By independently engaging in this strategy, women create an aggregate benefit of socially positioning for all women to better engage in direct hypergamous strategies.

And thus the appearance of a conspiracy is born.

But it is nothing more than a tacitly, and likely supraconsciously, agreed upon strategy that would quickly fall apart once women are in direct competition over finite resources.

So the feminine imperative is not direct hypergamous strategy (like branch swinging). Rather it is a meta strategy that benefits all the female players of the game by putting them into a stronger position to engage in direct hypergamous strategies.
