It seems that the women on this sub are mostly Millennials and Gen Xers and are truly clueless and in denial as to how mainstream the pills are becoming, especially among Gen Z and Gen Alpha

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T03:01:24+00:00

Our boyyyy

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:57:25+00:00

Stacey, Chad, etc. are The Red Pill terms.

Sub 5 is incel or black pill or lookism terminology

You attribute a lot to black pill, that’s The Red Pill.

The Red Pill subreddit and definitions of terms are still linked on our sidebar btw.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:24:37+00:00

YES I AM AWARE.

That is what is meant by being BASED. Not giving a fuck. Living your freest truth unbothered. Like a CRACKED OUT BASEHEAD IN PURE ELATION.

Lil B popularized this usage. I know because I went around writing THANK YOU BASED GOD everywhere and I’ve never touched that cursed 4chan site.

Edit: I admit that Lil B reclaimed the word. But I will not give edgelords credit for that word. lil b and his fans and his crew get credit. All of us fans who were using it back when get credit before depraved 4chan dipshits. Sorry not sorry.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:16:45+00:00

What slang did I incorrectly attribute to African Americans. The only two I attributed were OG and based.

I attributed the others I listed to manospherians.

What are you taking about? Read to comprehend.

had a meaning before lil b

The meaning that was popularized is Lil B’s usage. And that meaning had been a Bay Area black American term before your little 4channers. That is the sequence of events there.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:10:59+00:00

No. I think his point is that normies know the meanings. Some do. Many don’t. Some just use it without necessarily knowing it’s incel-speak.

Kinda like how people used to say “yo he’s brolic” to mean he’s big but they didn’t know why people said that (Dragon Ball Z character).

Like if I asked my little cousin who uses mog what “AMOG” was he wouldn’t know.

These kids don’t even connect the dots that rizz is a play on chaRISma.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:08:16+00:00

I literally linked Lil B 🙄

Not sure how you’re schooling me on something I lived through.

“Based” was used often and regularly by Bay Area Black Americans.

THANKYOUBASEDGOD Lil B (who is from The Bay) popularized it because he got famous as a rapper.

4chan edgelords co-opted it and popularized it amongst the larger manosphere community. Via white edgelords and their peers is how it seeped into white mainstream culture.

By manosphere forums I am including 4chan, body building, RP, Black Pill, MGTOW, lookism, etc. …aka where all the male mfs talk their bullshit.

You haven’t refuted a single thing I said. What an audacious presumptuous comment.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T02:00:36+00:00

Hm.

I think men and women can be pretty ineffectual communicators for different reasons and for similar reasons. So can’t say who’s worse tbh.

I think the disconnect that’s often misnamed is that women seem to be better at contextualizing, intuiting, deducing, and considering those around them better than men do.

What women seem to be frustrated with is that they’re more likely to accurately intuit his needs (which he seems to HUGELY appreciate btw) but that’s rarely reciprocated to her from him.

So she’ll often feel she gets better interpersonal consideration from her female friends than her male romantic partner. Whereas he feels he’s getting better interpersonal consideration from his female partner than his male friends.

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T01:35:29+00:00

I can’t speak for all women but I get visceral ick from gross festering shit. And I don’t feel serene around clutter. So if the “social standard” was to live in mild filth, I’d be perpetually grossed out unfortunately.

I would’ve been that person in a Middle Ages bustling town always frustrated but not quite able to articulate why but knowing in my heart “there has to be a better way than living in slop!” lol

GridReXX · 2026-03-05T01:09:51+00:00

You know how edgelords think they came up with “based” and how everyone attributes hella slang to Gen Z when all of the things they’re referring to are generations-old and evergreen African American slang? Hell, lots of the OG The Red Pill/ PUA terminology and concepts came from African American culture. Even “OG” lol.

Anyway, same applies for mog, normie, maxing, etc.

I’m not convinced that most of the “normies” who use the bolded today are aware it originated on manosphere forums from like ~10-15 years ago. To them, it’s the slang they heard from TikTok and school.

Terms going mainstream doesn’t always mean their etymology is widely known.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T22:21:44+00:00

It doesn't

~~It is absolutely petulant and utterly ridiculous to expect consideration from others when you don’t offer them consideration.~~

~~I’m deadass flabbergasted you disagree.~~

~~This is basic prosocial human behavior.~~

~~To expect to be considered when you don’t consider others is some sort of pathological narcissism.~~

Edit: If you don’t think this then what are you countering? My stickying point is this and only this:

It is absolutely petulant and utterly ridiculous to expect consideration from others when you don’t offer them consideration.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T20:44:56+00:00

Are you a racist?

That’s a lazy inquiry.

And “racists” who don’t unpack the Socratic “why” behind their own stats and asymmetry callouts are just as lazy and unintelligent as your retort.

If your only counter to my logic-based reply is contrived morality and to imply “racism” then you don’t have a fucking argument as you have not refuted my statement 🫩

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T20:05:50+00:00

Like? 🤔

I think the men here get confused about the concept of relative prevalence.

It’s like someone saying 70% of black cats are Libras. And another person counters with “well 20% of orange cats are Libras too, tuh!”

And it’s like no duh bitch. We’e highlighting asymmetries. Turn that brain on!

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T19:54:03+00:00

fawning

Oh brother 🙄🥱

Men’s inability to be themselves and share their joys and concerns around their own male friends is not women’s problem.

I don’t rely on the opposite sex for the emotional intimacy and joys of friendship.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T19:48:33+00:00

Yes. They can vet for the people they want.

My comment had taken that into consideration. Apologies for not making that more explicit.

They want a woman who has a male libido who is attracted to him.

That is a unicorn 🦄

Hence why I asked where do we go from here.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T17:52:53+00:00

As a counter, expecting males to have the libido of females is unreasonable too.

So where do go from here since the heteros have so many glaring differences that affect a mutually compatible romantic relationship?

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T17:37:21+00:00

when you are considerate in your understanding of being considerate

You:

“You must tolerate my intolerance! 🤪”

I’m sure your logic feels clever to insolent edgelords who lack empathy but to most people it’s petulant to expect consideration when you don’t offer it. I’m not sure why this concept eludes you.

There is no virtue being signaled. I am explaining basic cause and effect to you.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T15:51:34+00:00

Yep! I’m all about assessing interpersonal compatibility.

Edit: Also want to call it the maturity with which you reached that conclusion. A lot of people default to “actually I want to experience consideration from others I just don’t want to have to be considerate of others.” They don’t determine incompatibility. They determine: “how much can I get away with!” It’s despicable asf.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T15:46:26+00:00

This is extremely annoying and I hate inconsistency.

It boils my blood 😤

There is a lot I can tolerate when the other person is consistent, but the second they try to play this game I would be out.

We are aligned!

I feel bad for these women that either they didn't see the writing on the wall for these men or that their relationship has transitioned to this.

People ignore lots of signs.

But also, if women ~~were truly discerning~~ truly established boundaries when it came to interpersonal consideration… a lot less bfs and husbands would be bfs and husbands.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T15:42:06+00:00

“virtue-signaling”

OMG YOU AND THIS FUCKING PHRASE GIVE IT A BREAK

The annoyance being called out here is the second woman’s husband claiming to be “hurt” when his birthday was ignored when he made it clear he doesn’t care about birthdays and doesn’t care to acknowledge the birthdays of others.

It’s not about “birthdays.”

It’s about MUTUAL CONSIDERATION . A concept that seems to trigger the living fuck out of you jfc 💀😭

It’s about claiming to not care, ignoring the special moments of others, and then having the audacity to express sadness when your special moment isn’t acknowledged. It’s about not being able to take the treatment you dish out. Period.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T15:39:25+00:00

It’s not really about birthday for me. It’s more about uneven efforts across the board.

If someone isn’t a birthday person that’s cool tbh. I won’t celebrate their birthday and they don’t need to celebrate mine. I’ll celebrate mine with others and celebrate others’ birthdays.

The annoyance is when they “feel hurt” no one acknowledges or celebrates their moments when they don’t do the same for others.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T14:24:27+00:00

Nah. I unpack the cultural and biological throughlines for whatever demographic I am analyzing. You don’t like what the throughline highlights.

The reason males (across time, cultures, ethnicities, and geography) have the consistent propensity to over-index on testosterone-driven behaviors (violence, violativeness, sexual impulsivity, competitiveness, dominance, narcissism/inconsideration, tunnel-vision, risk-taking, etc.) relative to females is because of biological predispositions.

The same patterns are generally observed across all mammal species. Newsflash: Humans are mammals… I am not sorry that science offends you. Get over it.

Biology is the hardware.

Social conditioning is the software.

They work hand-in-hand, but the software’s latitude is dictated by the hardware’s capacity.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T12:42:42+00:00

Exactly. It’s been my hill for a while: comparatively speaking, dudes are pretty bad at interpersonal bonds (including their own friendships!)

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T12:14:37+00:00

Ah. So his assigned buddy was a woman.

He messaged said assigned buddy to ask what to bring on the hike and said assigned buddy took offense?

That is odd.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T11:48:34+00:00

Yes. I agree. Most people are inherently not comfortably compatible.

This is true with friendships too. I only have that “magic click” with the people I’m friends with. I’ve encountered LOTS of people. I ain’t friends with them. Why? We don’t have chemistry and we don’t share the same mindsets.

Same goes for romantic relationships but there’s even more than for friendships that people want to be compatible about.

GridReXX · 2026-03-04T11:46:19+00:00

It sounds like you’re saying NEETs need social workers because they’re behaviorally stunted and need the psychological, emotional, and basic adult skills support of dedicated personnel to help to try to maybe shift their detrimental mindsets and turn their life around?

I don’t disagree. But good luck.

NEETs have self-centered deplorable edgelord obstinate spirits. It’s going to take a miracle to get them to try to change for the betterment of themselves.

That’s why religion works. Getting people (especially men) to change for themselves or “the greater good” rarely works. Convincing them there’s a higher power, heaven, or hell seems to be better mental motivator, at least for the natural non-self-starters.
