The wall is merely softer because it's cushioned with thirsty Beta Orbiters. Rather than hitting the stone wall dead on and realizing the crushing truth, these men will pad the wall. They will be stacked multiple times over, because they think that this is when the girl will finally see their value for an LTR, never knowing she's ACTUALLY settling for them.

When she hits that wall padded full of these men, she'll slowly work through them as they compliment and qualify her. By the time she actually finds the stone portion of the wall, she'll have one of them tagging along qualifying her, thereby preventing her from slamming head on into the wall's truth.

The problem isn't that the wall is soft; the wall is padded by thirsty ass dudes.

[–]IamAwaken2 points 12 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

This is the real point. Women still have a general abundance until 40~ maybe. Look at the UK to see this trend worse I hear.

[–]2Overkillengine-1 points0 points1 point 12 years ago [recovered] (2 children) | Copy Link

And thus why while we should not proselytize the red pill; we should also not hold back the info from those that show themselves to be ready for it.

Less pandering thirsty dudes due to unplugging means fewer enablers of bad behavior.

There is only one person in the world who is looking out for you above all else, and that is you. This applies to the men you may want to help as well. If they aren't looking to fix themselves there is nothing you can do to help them other than lead by example so that they see what their life could be like if they acted more like you. Trying to convince them is a lost cause. You cannot convince the ignorant that they are ignorant. The most effective way to spread the red pill is to live it in your own life to the fullest and shine so brightly that your success melts away the crust covering the eyes of those who would doubt you.

[–]2Overkillengine0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Bingo. Live it, and those that are ready will come to you. Trying to preach it will just make them resent you if you do it before they are ready.

[–]AnotherLostCause17 points18 points19 points 12 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

It is softer and it isnt. They stop getting the kind of men they want. In the short term they can hamster that but in the medium to long term they arent happy and they'll never really be happy again.

[–]therandomthrowaway11 points12 points13 points 12 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Funny that Roosh missed this one. This might be a case of Roosh forgetting that men and women are different and projecting his own feelings on the situation. Just because men are happy to have more options, doesn't mean that women are ok with having lots of options, if they have FEWER options than they used to. Women will still have more options of course, but because of their massively inflated sense of entitlement, they will be very unhappy with the options they have left. Again, this is why being beta bucks fucking sucks ass. You'll get the woman past her prime, with much lower SMV, and she'll STILL be extremely unhappy and critical of you.

[–]RcskaSedd2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

also dont you think their option are more beta than alphas? Quantity over Quality? Could be the case for some. Roosh has some good ideas however article sounded too whiny instead bring inspirational to find our own way, or it could be Roosh V finally hit that psychological break down all great PUA hit.

[–]Senior Contributorveggie_girl1 point2 points3 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Roosh is writing for an audience which funds his lifestyle. RoK is much more guilty of it, but roosh does occasionally have entertainment (MRA-esq) pieces on his blog as well.

I've given this some thought, how the wall is in reality softer for women than at first glance it appears it should be.

I think it is down to one of the very things that makes the wall exist in the first place... women's shorter reproductive spans. A lot of older divorced guys 45+ are still out there looking for sex and remarriage when their ex wives really can't be bothered any more because their hormones have changed and they've either accomplished their reproductive mission or given up on it. Most of these men are happy to have a 35 year old women and thrilled at a 30 year old woman. Even if a particular woman isn't willing to marry a 50 year old man, the fact that some of her peers are willing is all it takes to soften her wall. So the wall only exists as a slight reduction in how fussy a woman can be. All the shocked sounding articles about man shortages by female journalists are misleading because they've been written by the sort of spoiled princesses who regard even a small reduction in their options as calamity.

A lot of women I've met are on a perpetual wall. They always feel like they are too late, behind the ball, will never get what they want but make no moves to changes things.

Those women that don't hit the wall only postpone it until later. They always feel like the could have done more if they hadn't settled down and, since society is always encouraging women way beyond what they're capable of, they'll never be happy.

*They always feel like they are too late, behind the ball, will never get what they want but make no moves to changes things. *

Describes most of humanity, unfortunately.

A decent looking crazy cat lady may still get laid, but she's still a crazy cat lady.

[–]pupplenupple0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

One of my friends has wifed up a crazy cat lady at the wall. They've got 5 cats and are looking for more. She doesn't intend having children. He quit the tech business he had been trying to get started for the past five years and got himself a day job so they could buy a nice big house for them to fill with cats. She barks orders at him all day. And the really sad thing is he's happier than he's ever been because at least he'd getting laid.

[–]RebootedMale0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Meh, studies show increasing amounts of dudes are not interested in marriage post-thirty. The wall might be soft but it is still real and increasing numbers of women are finding out too late that they have been spoonfull a buffet of pretty lies, even if some of them luck out.

[–]swallowpls1 point 12 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

The wall is dangerously thorny, but the cushiony, the-gym-is-for-meatheads, doughboy betas work tirelessly to cover it up.

im one to speak.. i havent been to the gym in ages.

Then we need to make it harder. Simple as that.

Is it a coincidence that viagra is a blue pill?

You've just changed my life.

[–]pupplenupple0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Let me guess, your desire to make the wall harder for women involves other men giving up some of their options, having less sex, having fewer women to choose from.

yeah fuck that for a joke
