The reason we are dismissed and cast aside so readily is because we believe in a truth that is ugly. I denied it myself, I fought the notion that relationships aren't easy and that pop culture's idea of love and belonging didn't just come to all who fell in line. But what did I get for that? Relationships that repeatedly failed despite the fact that women told me I was handsome. I had my brief moments of sexual encounters with women who would swiftly back out of their commitments once they realised that I was too nice and worked too hard to give them what they wanted.

The Red Pill journey is ugly, it is appropriately named. You wake up from a guise to a truth that will cheapen your relationships with women and shift your dependance solely onto yourself. But the alternative is simply a fairytale, and if you live your life to a different set of rules to the ones that women are playing then the game will invariably break you time and time again.

In retrospect, the truth has its moments of beauty. I have learnt to love myself and not judge my worth by that placed on me by women or my current partner. TRP does not stand to say that loving relationships are unattainable, it just changes the foundations that they are built upon. They may not look bleak to us comparatively to the notion of romance that society sells to our children, but they can stand just as strong once you understand the rules, and play by your terms.

I, like many of you, was brought to the red pill concepts through my search for clarity in the seduction society, so I think it appropriate to quantify the feminist narrative in the following example. Feminism stands to ingrain society with an inherent and overwhelming shit-test. Women don't want you to play by their rules, they merely created this game out of camaraderie to women everywhere. It removes the effort on their side of the playing court. They are secretly longing for a man who will abdicate from the game altogether. Gentleman, they may defy us for revealing the method to their magic, but never forget that it is our prerogative to take back that power from them in a relationship else they go looking for another opponent who will do the same.
