I am not above manipulation in the slightest. I ended up here because I'm reading 48 laws of Power (voracious reader in general) and I looked up critiques of the book (to get the alternative perspective) and clicked on a post in this sub.

I'm not offended really by any of the typical redpill posts but back to the center of my point: Why this sub is dumb

There's a core belief that women can't be trusted and women are inherently different than men.

Now on average, there are going to be a lot of parallels between how one goes about manipulating one man versus another man.

And conversely there will be a separate set of tricks for manipulating different women.

But...sometimes you're going to encounter a woman where you'll use more manipulative tricks you would usually use on a man.

There aren't any hard absolutes. And in relationships, of course there's gonna be more snags if it's romantic or sexual. Expectations are higher and the potential for jealousy is higher.

If there are more possible ways for trust/loyalty to be broken (reproductive desires, sexual desires, desires for new experiences, higher expectations for trust) then of course there will be more breaches.

This goes for intergender friendships as well for the inherent sexual tension from various angles that will come up (single versus non single. Who likes who more, etc etc)

Basically: All people are kind of like safes to be cracked and there will be different rhythms for different locks. Some lock types might have a lot of overlaps

But absolutes are always sprinkled with discrepancies.

One woman might only be goos for a one might stand. One might be nearly your best friends. Overt honesty in all circumstances has the capacity to bore people, offend them, or backfire on you.

This is just how things are. And of course women have arguably made less impressive accomplishments. Biologically there just isn't the same incentive usually. It's just wiring.

If anything, we should commend women's higher likely hood of falling in love with a funny confident fat guy. Cus I'm not ever gonna meet a funny confident fat woman and fall for her.

And that's fucked but that's a big part of life and how we are conditioned
