I've been puzzled by this. It seems that logical people are prone towards TRP while emotional ones simply can't comprehend it. There is a link to intelligence but not as strong as one might think. Additionally what amazes me is the denial of TRP points even when they are proven both scientifically as well as in daily life.

The most curious group in my opinion are the beta white knights who furiously fight against everything TRP offers but at the same time suffer most from not not understanding it.

Personally I came from that group through Seddit (/PUA communities) where I understood that the world doesn't work in the way I thought it does. I would've never been turned unless the PUA tips hadn't worked so well. But when trying to offer the same path to fellow nerds, they usually reject it immediately even though they are single men in their late thirties.

So my question is, what did wake you? And do you think there are common personality traits shared by the TRPs?
