1	What is so enlightening about the red pill ? TRP does more than give advice; it attaches understanding of the advice given, making that advice more solid and realistic that the oft-pedalled detritus most spooge out of their faces. Advice in a vacuum without understanding why that advice is good (be funny), why that advice must be followed (girls like funny guys), and what situations and scenarios have led to needing that advice (funny guys are attractive), are all moot. TRP attempts to look at the situation we're in, then look at what caus…	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/02/14 12:28 PM
2	Something I stumbled back onto today that I'd like your thoughts on... This seems to sum up most of your issues, proving men work more and that the pay gap is a myth.	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/02/14 11:06 AM
2	What do redpillers think about the perception of them as white trash wife beaters? Is that alpha? Do they want to be perceived as socially wealthy or powerful? Or does red pill knowingly and cunningly market downward? I think, in it's basest form, it's a sexually-tailored advice forum for some men looking for a certain type of woman.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/02/14 05:19 PM
2	What do redpillers think about the perception of them as white trash wife beaters? Is that alpha? Do they want to be perceived as socially wealthy or powerful? Or does red pill knowingly and cunningly market downward? the men attracted to the red pill and it's teaching are men who haven't had any or many women, or had a bad experience with one women that left them particularly scarred for whatever reason Anecdote incoming: I've seen a lot of women, and was employed as a male escort for a time after university in a large northern town in England. RP teachings often agree with my life experiences, especially when dealing with career orientated, post-wall, and childless women, but most advice will work for most …	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/02/14 04:56 PM
1	This is kind of a dumb question, so I apologize but I am curious. Why isn't the RedPill more...well...fun? I think trying to make ourselves find the funny side of what we say will only make people hate us more. Serious business must be treated seriously, add to that the fact that not many men feel anywhere close to being amused shortly after they've realised their errors. We get past it; I cringe at past-me and what he failed at all the time, and whilst it can be amusing when told in an amusing way, it kinda hurts to remind myself of it nevertheless.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/02/14 03:58 PM

2	Do red pill men typically agree with the goals of r/redpillwomen? I ascribe to some RP theories, and am not of the opinion I need to be a MGTOW or abscond from relationships altogether. I've got my unicorn, and explained our relationship dynamics previously in at least one thread. What I apply from my RP ideology has worked, and continues to work. [Unicorn = The woman most ideal for you.] Whilst there's a lot of men over on RP that would agree on what they consider to be 'good enough' to settle for; we all want our own unicorn, because we're all different and …	/r/PurplePillDebate	14/02/14 03:41 PM
4	Red pill Dad's: Will you teach your kids the theory? Well said. That's exactly how I feel on the subject too. I said on a previous post somewhere defending TRP that the only thing we're really doing, when we get down to brass-tacks, is going after what we want, and not stopping until we've got it. I'm not going into "what we want" because I cannot comment on us in that way; it's all personal to context. Look at capitalism, look at (ancient) governments, look at royalty, look at colonialism. It's all, every-single-fucking-part-of-it, based on takin…	/r/TheRedPill	13/02/14 05:08 PM
13	Ever wonder why getting hired is such a shitshow? Here's why... 69% of HR are female HR staff at my company have refused interviews, when recommended internally, because they haven't been given (or seen) the go-ahead on the C.V originally. They have huge phantom-power-boners and anything logical, like increasing efficiency, is taken as a personal sleight and a de-facto reason for stonewalling. That's not even my problem, although there's a massive element of that. I don't understand how someone who has no experience of doing the job being advertised can mediate whether another p…	/r/TheRedPill	13/02/14 12:13 PM
0	Red pill and rationality Throughout my education I've covered subjects (up to degree/college level) of Biology, Mathematics, Psychology, Physics, Chemistry and English Lit/Lang, over two stints (separated by a degree). Being 28 I consider myself as having seen enough of the world, and learned enough about things that help me understand the world, to be able to make judgements on human behaviour, and even science to a degree (although it peaks off at more specialised levels). I explain this because I have learned we are …	/r/AlreadyRed	12/02/14 04:48 PM

I doubt anyone's ahead in this regard;shitty people are shitty, it's not a sex thing.

2	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? Of course judgement can be honed you silly-billy. You know the game, darts? You know how you throw that little spiked dart into the board at the other side and try to get points based on the accuracy? That act of throwing and hitting the target can be worked out mathematically, and using Newton's Laws. The same goes for snooker, pool and football, possibly even games like cricket or baseball, and especially basketball too. You could probably get a machine to do them easily with the right know ho…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/02/14 05:35 PM
2	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? You cannot quantify social interaction scientifically though. If you cannot attain 100% accuracy in any scientific model and construct, then why resort to demanding scientific evidence for an impossibly-tasked scientific hypothesis, based on social interaction of the sexes? If (and I would hope science one day comes through in my favour) science is incompatible with social interaction studies, then all we are left with is heuristics. If all we are left with are heuristics, then we MUST use what …	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/02/14 04:50 PM
1	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? Doesn't the ability to denounce someone as "shitty" come from the experience of knowing what a shitty person is, or has done? Or perhaps reading the signs leading up to the event where they are going to become "shitty"? Having the judgement to know this is a required tool you must have if you want to avoid dating a shitty person. That requires experience, or listening to people who have had that experience. We listen to people with a greater experience than ourselves in a given field; they are t…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/02/14 04:27 PM
2	How does women acting masculine, and vice versa, harm society? Would it be okay to ask that if roles change, expectancy towards the people in those roles should change, as well as their expectancy of others in 'less traditional' roles? I'm all for women working in dangerous jobs, going to war, being bodyguards, etc. but if after doing all of that they still want, or lust after a man who can and does do more then what? How do you propose we combat the difference of 'what I want to do' against 'what I want'? From what I have seen in the Western World women ar…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/02/14 04:01 PM
-1	How does women acting masculine, and vice versa, harm society? Has society ever put forward ideas that, when adopted, have caused strife, anger, disparity, injustice and unfair treatment? Any you can think of recently in the last 100 years? And, do you think it capable of misinformation, or the stirring of people to action through ignorance? Could the above truths cause people to be (rightly) distrustful of typical societal 'norms' and therefore be confused as to their internal wants and externally enforced ideals? EDIT: Ey, downvote with no retort - keep i…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/02/14 03:05 PM
1	Take 2. More TRP for you! You will see what you want to see if that's what you believe. Don't forget you are in a place where there are a lot of angry men. Would you walk into a mental hospital and proclaim that they're a bunch of fucking retards because they're acting retarded? Yes, they're retarded, but they're acting like that because of several valid reasons, like their brain structure, or a history of abuse. You have to engage empathy, but you have to be capable of doing it in the first place. Their general philosop…	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 04:57 PM
1	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? I'll have you know fangasm is all about us; many people portray it, exude it and are touched by those that are fangasmic themselves. It's part of the culture, a learned behavour and you haven't learned it, which is why you're ignorant of what it takes, and that's a shame. But seriously, if you're failing in your relationships or in attracting people, it's because you're not fangasmic; so be fangasmic. I can't tell you what it is, because what I find fangasmic you might not find to be exactly the…	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 04:38 PM
2	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? The scientific method are the only tools we've ever developed that can model everything we observe with reasonable accuracy. Science has proven that we're made of atoms, which are made of particles which are both there and not there. There is a duality in that, and the truth is that they are both. Science "truth" hasn't made the situation easy to understand, and hasn't given us a reasonable answer. You have to wonder if our tools of measuring fail to help understand the situation, and I believe …	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 04:30 PM
1	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? I want the best I can get. It's not related to how good I am, or I perceive myself to be. I don't have to hold myself to the standards I want in another. We are not owed things because we are; we get things we want because we take action to acquire them.	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 04:03 PM
3	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? It's easier to remove yourself from a bad situation than to change the situation. The state of dating, women and expectance, along with divorce laws, alimony and child support dictate that the situation is too difficult to change, so the advice is an avoidance of that.	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 03:53 PM
2	I want to sleep with physically attractive women. A lot of them. If TRP is 'the wrong' way to think TBP, what is your solution? So we're all ignorant of what we know, unless what we know can be observed, tested and proved? What about the people that have the correct answer but are lacking proof? They're still correct, whether the evidence is there or not, right? What we're talking about is your willingness to be 'hard-and-fast' in only believing what is 100% provable, or your willingness to test ones instincts and acquired knowledge, as well as personal perception and intution. I'm not trying to make a claim for biology …	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 03:51 PM

If I told you that you had to be 'fangasmic' in order to attract people. You might be relieved I've told you what to do, but now you have no idea how to be it. I'm aware that I'm capable of being fangasmic, but you have no idea how to be like that. You only know it works. You cannot teach someone how to be funny, it's pretty much all on them to learn and execute it. Not only that, but you're not guaranteed that your particular brand of funny, or in the cas…	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/14 03:30 PM
3	What does your side get wrong? Red Pillers are fond of saying NAWALT as a retort when women say they don't exhibit the thought patterns we ascribe to our perceived understanding of their actions. In short, it means 'not all women are like that'. I know from /r/thebluepill that when members defend our responses that we, in ignorance, are actually saying 'not all red pillers are like that'; NARPALT. My post is essentially that, and I realise it and see the hypocrisy (if you wanted to point that out :p). I responded elsewhere ab…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 07:35 PM
2	What does your side get wrong? Yeah. I guess the point is that I don't try and do anything that she wants to do (that I would be worse at) and she doesn't do anything I want to do (that she would be worse at). Some of those things are traditional roles, some aren't. I love putting music on and ironing, she enjoys playing computer games, so we cross 'strict absolutes' with regards to gender biases in at least one example. Not that she can't iron and that I'm not a certified badass at computer games... we want to get the best r…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 07:16 PM
3	What does your side get wrong? But here's the thing: TRP regularly posts things that do not fit in the frame of the man (the father) that you give as an example. I doubt this 'role model' has ever claimed women to have no honour, or that women are devoid of logic. I doubt he thinks women are incapable friends for men. I doubt this role-model considers himself to be 'alfa'. I doubt he looks down on 'betas' for being 'doormats'. I doubt he thinks any of that. I also doubt the above, but I also doubt that he'd mention it to anyo…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 07:09 PM

I'm not going to 'not' let her handle something purely on the basis that I must handle it (apologies for the confusing double negative). I don't feel a "right to do things" because I'm a man; my power (if you want to call it that) to act is given by permission because the situation is beneficial to our preferences. I can't say where h…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 05:32 PM
1	What does your side get wrong? I can only piece together what I believe to be true based on her history and what we have shared and discussed. A lot of what I believe to be the truth is based off her understanding of herself. Neither of us are psychologists. It seems quite evident to me that being brought up by her mother, and the conditions she was in, resulted in several learned behaviours from her that were not good. "Good" life lessons were largely not taught, and my GF had to raise her baby brothers and sisters due to he…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 05:10 PM
2	What does your side get wrong? At what point in either of my posts do I claim, specifically, that I discourage discourse with my girlfriend over my actions or future actions? I state what she does not do, but you have precluded that I am dismissive of the opposite behaviour; I am merely more in favour of one, not necessarily intolerant of one(people have preferences). Again, I endeavour to make her aware of my decision and the reason I choose to make them; I do not act in her ignorance, ever. Also, if you wouldn't mind pointi…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 04:16 PM
4	What does your side get wrong? I believe not being able to deal with your partner questioning your decisions is a sign of weak self esteem. I didn't say this. I said that she doesn't question my decisions due to me giving reasonable evidence as to why I've taken, or am going to take, a certain course of action. Where I haven't been clear, she would ask more about it. The point I'm making is that she's aware of her ignorance, and doesn't seek to disagree because she doesn't understand. If my idea contests hers, her first react…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 02:47 PM
4	What does your side get wrong? I don't like speaking for a side as such, but recently I have downplayed society's role in the shaping of our learned behaviours, over our inherent genetic urges. Bottom line is, society is just as likely to affect your behaviour and your actions, and that the source of our behaviours and ideas cannot be traced back to either our genetics or the society in which we live. Unfortunately I see this in a conspiratorial light in that we know society, or powers-that-be, such as law makers or the elite…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 02:07 PM
5	What does your side get wrong? I identify with TRP, have a LTR with a woman slightly younger than myself (24/28), who has no contact with her mother since she was 18 as she was witness to her mother being assaulted by her partner, and who eventually turned on her as well. She has been raised by her father ever since, who has a LT girlfriend, so she has witnessed 'a man' as opposed to witnessing 'a male', in that he is a hard worker, provider, decision maker and leader of the household. She is aware that there is no point in c…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/01/14 01:51 PM
3	Male and female brains wired differently, scans reveal Why don't you be the big (wo)man and just respond politely with the request, then await the next question, if there is one?

0	I am a woman. I agree with him insofar that whilst we will be impressed by your skills and achievements, I would not find them generating attraction on those merits alone. I am (for the most part) attracted to a woman’s appearance and her feminine persona (soft, caring, relaxed, submissive [submissive =/= dominated], nurturing, etc.) If you're attractive and you listed those things I'd be more attracted, of course. This can be viewed similar to a women finding a man more attractive after he shows (not tells) …	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/01/14 04:09 PM
1	Does everyone agree that sometimes men and women alike face difficulties that are based on their gender? Okay, so it goes like this then... Patriarchy/Patriarchal society Women's rights/Feminism: aka a backlash to the above. 2nd/3rd Wave Feminism MRA movement: aka a backlash to the above. And that it's "understandable but not defensible". That phrase makes no sense at all. The anger is a result of actions, or rather inaction "of the above". If my little sister was raped and murdered by a paedophile, and so I killed them, do you believe my actions to be understandable but not defensible? It is possi…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/01/14 07:22 PM

I'm more interested in the refutations.	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/01/14 07:10 PM
0	Norwegian Documentary I actually agree with you that the starting point isn't culture, it's biology, and the differences in biology precluded difference in the society and culture that spawned from those differences. As I said in my above point: My personal belief is (and I have no studies to back this up on hand I'm afraid) that Biology precludes society. Different genes produce different hormones (fact), that produce different physiological responses in the body (fact), which lead to the different growth of that bo…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/01/14 05:13 PM
1	Norwegian Documentary Feminism works to remove the repressive norms that are placed on men. Never understood the notion that the 'norms' of my sex are repressing my sex. Please can you give me a brief overview on how being a man/doing traditionally manly things hinders me being a man? Also, if you wouldn't mind quickly answering why feminists aren't concerned with MRA claims of equality (equality being a genderless term; tit-for-tat) considering child support payments, legal issues, rape charges, to whom the children…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/01/14 04:27 PM
5	Why NAWLT is the Beta Battle Cry. I learned due to puberty. (THANK YOU TESTOSTERONE PRODUCTION!) Ugly duckling syndrome (whilst being a really, really "nice" duckling) makes you wise up to how differently you're being treated as a swan, purely because your appearance changed. (Low level stuff, even). As soon as I left highschool (16) and went to college (16-18) I was treated much differently, without actually changing my personality; it was all aesthetics.

My dad told me a sneaky way to mitigate the damages if you are co-habiting though, and it's all about paper-trail. Essentially, this only works if she comes and lives with you/you have your own home.

I can agree that he's a bad chap and has said some bad things, but I'd like to err on the side of judgement by saying that he's definitely frustrated, with everything, and his reaction to that cannot be taken out of context with what he said and for what reasons (which I don't know, but can speculate on the women he has to deal with being one of them).

2	Does everyone agree that sometimes men and women alike face difficulties that are based on their gender? Most men won’t speak out against feminism or for men's rights because it makes enemies, and you can get easily silenced; careers ruined, that sort of thing. It takes a certain sort of person to keep going, regardless, and they will be abused and insulted, but if it's for the right reasons (which you have noted already) it needs to be done.

1	Conflict between my world view and RP I am unsure what you mean by that last sentence. Could you reiterate? If you choose to make yourself happy, and consider this an important thing, then following that course of action will, almost always, affect someone in a less-than-positive way. (That is not to say negative way, only, not ideal - I lack adequate terminology for what I'm trying to say).

The only thing we're in charge of is ourselves, and it's within your responsibility to act upon yourself in order for you to feel happy with your existence. Whether you would call that a win, I do not know, but being able to feel good about who you are is winning in my eyes.

1	Conflict between my world view and RP I have to agree with everything you've said really. I do care more about myself than (as of yet) anyone else in my life. I take care of myself because, as a man, I have to get up and go make something of myself, from day one. We aren't afforded the capability of childbearing, which makes women more useful than men as a standard, and means they're useful even if they do nothing at all but have a child. No one is going to be there for you as you are of the historically disposable sex. My point abo…	/r/TheRedPill	13/01/14 01:45 PM
16	Black man explains why he doesn't prefer black women. His line at the end is golden and applies the feminists as well. Seems like a destructive cycle when viewed from afar. Some single black women have the mentality of a "strong, independent woman". If one just so happens to have a child, and the father be absent, they will view their mother acting that way and emulate. The emulation of the 'hard' characteristic results in a lack of femininity. Reasons for could be a mixture of 'femininity is weak', or 'femininity is for white girls', or the fact that mother has to play father in some respect. The above, mixed w…	/r/TheRedPill	13/01/14 01:31 PM

Cus d'Amato put his soul into the young Mike Tyson, and gave him love, respect, comfort, and a future. Cus trained him well, kept him away from women (or rather, women away from him) and kept the mob and other bent officials (Don King) from Mike. He never seemed to be doing it 'because he could', but because he wanted to (be a man, and) help a boy, who had supreme talent, become a man himself and improve his abilities. The guy became a 20 year old world champion. You just don't see that (I mean …	/r/TheRedPill	09/01/14 04:58 PM
1	new UK Domestic Violence laws - Men face up to 14 years in jail for non-physical abuse, without burden of proof. False domestic abuse, unlike false rape allegations, will be unavoidable, as you cannot videotape a year-long relationship AFAIK the HoL is still predominantly men, right? It might be okay then, but even if they amend/send the bill back, the HoC (House of Commons) can force it through after three attempts anyway. At best the HoL can only amend bills, they can't outright refuse to pass it, but the process of stalling takes years, so I'm hoping they do it.	/r/TheRedPill	09/01/14 04:17 PM
1	new UK Domestic Violence laws - Men face up to 14 years in jail for non-physical abuse, without burden of proof. False domestic abuse, unlike false rape allegations, will be unavoidable, as you cannot videotape a year-long relationship As it's only a proposed bill I'm forced into being optimistic about it not being passed. My questions about this sort of thing are "who makes these laws?". I know that the UK system is based on local MPs who take their councils' issues to Parliament, which if given enough support may affect the vote on, or writing of, a bill on the issue but I'd love to trace this back to the source of whose idea it was.	/r/TheRedPill	09/01/14 12:38 PM
3	Wife threatens her depressed husband with divorce, then secretly cheats on him. He turns his life around, wife starts to feel guilty about the cheating. Three guesses if r/relationships thinks she should tell him... I particularly like this extract: The point is that at the end of this, your retrospective view of how everything came to be and how the solution was arrived at is incredibly biased to your actions.	/r/TheRedPill	09/01/14 10:12 AM
2	Conflict between my world view and RP Good points. There was a documentary on in the UK, the event was called 'Psychopath Night'. A quick Google will take you to the programme. What I understood from the condensed message (and what the examiners took) is that psychopathic, egotistical tendancies and traits were beneficial for our ancestors to have. There was no arguing about that. Now I know of 'morals' and what society dictates are necessary, but more a pure survival point of view they aren't; morals actually hold you back. If I'm …	/r/TheRedPill	07/01/14 05:27 PM

(thanks!)BUT I'm consistently a pussy around other alphas and always tooled. Basically I become completely beta when its only men. It's just a familiarity thing I think, as with most issues in our lives, talking and theorising about a subject forms certain opinions of it that are later demolished when the subject is undertaken. It's one of those tough situations (and I feel the patient zero of the "man up" phrase) where thinking about doing does not equal doing. 'Manning up' in this context could be phrased more like "you've thought about it long enough, now go do it; you can't read a book on swimming and expect to swim, so…	/r/TheRedPill	02/01/14 04:34 PM

3	My Personal Journey - TRP Isn't Just for Picking Up Women All of us understand this. The problem most people have about TRP when they're discussing the benefits of our theories, is that they understand 'the tools' to be simple and more readily acquired elsewhere (pure conjecture of course), which therefore allows them to say "why would you stick around in a place like that, even if there is good advice, if there's also all that negative stuff?" Well, because it's so refreshing to not have to watch what I say, or to force someone into political correctn…	/r/TheRedPill	20/12/13 12:47 PM
5	Beta husband updates, likely divorce. Articulates the importance of sexual intimacy and a woman's perception of you. It's the final part of 'someone else's problem to fix' mentality that the developed world has a lot of. Only this time it's your problem to fix and you're letting someone else do it for you! This does not bode well, and the continuation of therapy to fix problems leads to scary ideas. Say, this third-person's judgements become the norm, well then you've got people not involved giving advice on what the people that are involved have to do in order to resolve it. It's asking the fish how to catch …	/r/TheRedPill	20/12/13 11:52 AM
15	Beta husband updates, likely divorce. Articulates the importance of sexual intimacy and a woman's perception of you. I don't think anything would be so deflating to me as to have a mediator pass judgement on the failings of myself and my partner. We don't do therapy a lot in the UK, or as far as I know, it isn't prescribed so copiously, which may be a reason why I'm not keen on the idea; no confirmation bias. Why does the US have such a hard-on for it though? Surely therapists make their money from people in therapy, therefore 'solving their problems' seems opposite to the capitalistic model; they'll stop comi…	/r/TheRedPill	20/12/13 11:14 AM

9	Simon pegg as an alpha He's a very good actor in general and has the fortune of portraying some really strong characters who align with Dark Triad traits. His portrayal of Sherlock Holmes is fantastic. His portrayal of Khan in the new Star Trek is a very similar character. He's also filmed a movie portraying Julian Assange, which is released soon if not already. Latest portrayal is Smaug, the voice of the dragon in the latest The Hobbit movie.

7	Father wants to encourage his daughter to spend his college years to finding a husband instead of sleeping around. I think the father has been miscontrued in his reasoning by the reddit masses, and I also believe that his understanding of the dynamics of relationships today has differed vs. his day. I'm purely guessing that his process is similar to mine, because to be honest, his ideas and execution in the raising for his children have been excellent by my understanding. He's their father, not their friend, and he shouldn't be submissive to his childrens' wants and desires if he feels it will damage the int…	/r/TheRedPill	18/12/13 01:59 PM
3	The red pill has torn apart my world view. When TRP was young I believe /u/redpillschool did a bit on BBC radio. Being from the UK and a new member at the time, involved in discussions, I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately they edited it a great deal and gave it a biased slant towards the woman in the interview. I forget what she was saying originally, it may have been education/workplace related gender equality or something like that. Just to clarify it was RPS talking to the radio presenter, who was also talking to a woman - RPS …	/r/askTRP	16/12/13 01:42 PM
10	[Serious] How does jacking off to porn on a regular basis affect testosterone? It does two things; inflates your 'harem' in the metaphorical sense to include women that are far more good looking, outgoing, and up-for-anything than you are able to come by, and by jacking-off to them you're being relieved of your sexual urges, which reduces the natural pursuing energy you might have when you're wanting to "get some". Unfortunately the reason for these two stems to our evolutionary biology (something people are alright to acknowledge in this context). The small, animal circui…	/r/TheRedPill	13/12/13 04:40 PM
26	Wife locks in beta provider with marriage. Still fucks alpha under premise of polyamory (notice how alpha treats her, and her reaction) I sometimes get the feeling that because I say 'couldn't handle' this sort of relationship that I'm viewed by people who can as somehow lacking their supreme sense of morality that "anyone can do anything as long as it's discussed and/or allowed". On the face of it, let's just add up what's going on: Man is letting wife have sex with 'friends' 'Friend' whom wife is having sex with is a dickhead and is being classically nonchalant with her. She is craving attention from the man who gives her 'the…	/r/TheRedPill	13/12/13 01:54 PM
3	About to finish reading No More Mr Nice Guy, what are some other good self-help books to read? Especially if they have RP mentality. I will add an oldie: 'Think! And Grow Rich' by Napoleon Hill. I believe it was wrote around the early 20th Century and is an effective business mentality enhancer/producer. It goes very well with 'How to Win Friends and Influence People' by Dale Carnegie. Have at those, you wont be dissapointed.	/r/TheRedPill	06/12/13 11:46 AM
1	Wife withholds sex from husband for 2 months after he takes preventative measures to avoid pregnancy. Husband finally cheats, hamsters rush to wife's aid. I kinda think there's a weird amount of irony in OP's post. Discussed having a baby, he said it's not financially viable/he's not ready. Argument resulted in him on the couch and her being cold towards his approaches. She finds his store of condoms, unopened and confronts him. He states that he realises how much he's not ready to be a father and is taking preventative measures. Cheats on his SO, thereby proving all of the above.	/r/TheRedPill	29/11/13 02:00 PM
4	"TRP is pointless because I don't follow a single thing they say in that subreddit and still get laid" That's a good point. I've had plenty of success with women before TRP. I've had more success with keeping them around/myself in check since though. The thing that has changed, as you pointed out, is that I've got much more control over me and my thoughts. Before, I might be relaxing slowly into betadom, but now I'm aware; my awareness leads to my control and my control of the situation leads to my happiness.	/r/TheRedPill	27/11/13 11:51 AM

I'm quoting that to remind you how far you've come in understanding her happiness vs. what you think she wants vs. what she thinks she wants vs. what she actually wants, vs. what she needs.

We think that our ego, the guiding voice in our head is us, but I say it isn't, it just masquerades as us and, if we let it, will get us to do what protects us from the most harm and discomfort. It's the gate-keeper of our world view. BP men have a lot to lose because their ego allows them to rationalise and understand their actions in the context of what they think or believe will be a result of them.

6	Welcome to Manginaland UK - where you need your wife's permission to watch porn. I recently came across TIL that suggested why the majority of our women are ugly.

It happened to me shortly after joining TRP, but I never raged at 'women'; it was always at myself, for finally understanding how I fucked things up. Yeah, those women tore my heart out, but eventually you have to admit that you let it happen, because then you can adapt yourself to the situation instead of blaming the situation.

I could be angry at her for doing what she did, but I fully expect that she believes the course of action(s) she took was the best for her to take. And I also believe that some of the reasons for her (re)action was down to my father not taking the things we talk about here into consideration.

I remember leading up to it that they would send me out to play if I came across them talking. The reason I was given (by my Mum) was that my dad had cheated on my Mum; she had found a card in his gym bag from another woman. I believed her and it led to me hating and despising cheaters. Anyway, as my father and I started spending more time together over the last 10 years or so, we'd g…	/r/TheRedPill	14/11/13 01:05 PM

He seems to keep his frame very well and doesn't mind busting his ass (at work), or the chops of the people around him (his wife, his neighbour, etc). Obviously he's the antithesis of Adam, who is a bit more of a 'modern man', whereas Jeff is oldschool. I really don't mind watching this show.	/r/TheRedPill	01/11/13 10:11 AM

TRP is a mixture of things, broken down into the big lumps, what I take are: Self-improvement, self-analysation, self-understanding and self-confidence. All of these will lead to self-belief.
