Is the Red Pill Really So Bad?

Post Reply New Topic

I am Gamma, and radioactively contaminated.

I would like an Alfa Romeo myself.....

Triumph Spitfire MkIII

Or perhaps an MGA MkII

I think those cars took the Red Pill.....

Perhaps; they are kind of like glorified riding lawnmowers pretending to be something they're not...

When I saw Forrest Gump, I thought it was cool that he rode in a riding lawnmower.

Even after he became a millionaire for just "being in the right place at the right time."

And to think I was actually feeling bad for creating a post earlier that I was sick of the men on WP...

I suppose it's possible if a man is very attractive to a majority of women, has himself together, and is naturally charming, he may never have to leave "blue pill land" or question it. For him, the strategy works.

But you're correct, it's not one-size-fits all, and to the men struggling, blue pill isn't gonna get you much of anywhere.

I don't really comment on these topics much, and I didn't even know what blue vs. red meant in this context. (I've seen the Matrix, but this here refers to realizing the truths about hetero-normative mating behavior among humans.)

Problem here is you're on a website for the socially clueless. Don't listen to most of what the women here say, they're not in your shoes. As Aspies, they probably don't even know how they stand in their own shoes. As for the men getting all uppity, they should be glad they've been successful and stop getting so hostile.

Santa Clause wasn't the biggest lie your mother told you...

I was never hostile.

I just feel that making concessions like that found in the concept of the "Red Pill" puts men deeper in the hole.

I've seen this even in NT-type men who are in the "dating scene." They develop strategies. They develop theories. They read studies which state something like "20% of the men get 80% of the women," or something like that.

They stay single because they adhere to this crap.

Didn't you say in another post that you'd slept with over 30 women by the age of 29?

Cool, hats off to you, but I don't think you can empathize.

I sincerely hope you see the irony in this.

That's true.

But I was a socially-awkward Aspie type while this happened. I did some rather unusual things----like write poems to women on the train. And I answered an ad for a woman----only for the woman to drag me into her apartment for some sex. Weird times!

I can empathize---trust me.

I felt the same way these men felt. I used to wish I could play a guitar because I thought guys with guitars got all the chicks. I almost gave up because I felt I could never learn to play a guitar.

The only way I achieved more success.....was to realize that "pushing for success" inevitably leads to failure. I had to develop a detached persona, and not make it seem like I was actively seeking chicks.

Not at all. Spell it out for me.
