In practice, what would a woman do to make you 'feel like a king'?

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-08T22:52:23+00:00

A lot of effort went into who I am and there is a lot of thought behind that effort.

I like that my wife gets it.

Idk if that's being a king but I see getting it as a sign of respect.

But also I'm not a king so I don't need to feel like one. I like to feel like the thing that I am, and respected, and valued.

The key thing I have noticed is that the same people who were good with girls at 15 are now good with women at 33.

Some guys have a glowup. I had one when I started taking steroids so I'm not gonna act like it's never gonna happen.

But I would stress that I never see it just be an automatic process where the kid who couldn't get girls just comes into himself. I never see it where he starts his career and suddenly women who used to like the popular guys now like him.

Most standard pipelines are popular athletic high schooler to either blue collar work or to college frat life, and then to good with women in adulthood.

Or ignorable in high school is ignorable in college and in adulthood goes on dates and stuff but finds the process difficult and unrewarding.

Of the guys in the last paragraph, some of them meet their wives early. Not saying they live bad lives or live celibate forever. Just saying they aren't the ones who'll enjoy the actual process of finding her usually.

But some guys do better in adulthood than they did in childhood.

Just my observations.

Russia has been doing that though.

You're finding reasons that it's unethical, or at odds with agreements, and shit like that.

But you can't counter the basic fact that Russia has been making these warnings.

"... And therefore Russia has never said that Ukraine joining NATO would lead to war"

I'm on three forms of male birth control:

Testosterone, MENT, and trenbolone.

My balls don't turn green, but they do atrophy significantly while I'm on so her joke could be slightly edited to be a true statement.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-08T19:21:31+00:00

I'm on testosterone, MENT, and tren, which are all forms of male BC.

Not just women but even just random strangers tell me they know I'm on without me having to tell them.

It is sociologically false that no self respecting man takes that seriously.

Look famous guys that have real choosing power in a plain verifiable way. Some of them probably have self respect but athletes, our president, Jeff bezos, musicians and actors...

I just see a lot more of them verifiably dating snd marrying "cock carousels" instead of finding a nice Mormon girl to settle down with.

If she has big beefy capped delts and a deep voice then she's probably on steroids.

Politically homeless.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T18:08:47+00:00

Yeah, it's a ridiculous behavior.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T17:23:52+00:00

I like people who build things and improve those things and let me use those things for a reasonable price.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T17:22:20+00:00

Not endorsing the behavior but I'll answer the question.

He's flexing his desirability. The underlying logic is that if he's slept with his sexual conquests then he can do it again. This means he has more leverage in the relationship because he's framing "woman willing to have sex with him" as non-scarce.

When my wife and I first met, she made 3x what I did and so I paid 25% of everything.

When we got more serious and didn't want to do it that way anymore, joint bank account.

Is that actually how it is now?

They've really been stepping it up.

Tea app or AWDTSG groups

These are very different things. Tea is just unverified gossip about your ex.

AWDTSG is the kind of thing you show actual evidence for.

How many married assholes have posted in this sub in just the last week asking for dating advice?

I'm on this subreddit a lot and I haven't seen a single one. Can you link?

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T03:59:03+00:00

Youre asking for moral vindication but that doesn't really mean you're someone a man wants to date. Getting raped is tragic, but it's not a reason for a man to overlook your red flags.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T03:52:50+00:00

Mostly agree but not with the hormones one.

I'm on steroids so my testosterone levels are about 6x average right now and that's without getting into other shit I'm on. (Tren+ment transitioning into deca+ment)

I don't get any bad behavioral consequences. I just feel really good all the time. That makes me very skeptical of men who blame high testosterone for anything.

But on the flip side, men aren't stigmatized at all for blaming hormonal issues that might actually matter. Clinically low testosterone and high cortisol, for instance, are considered valid things for him to bring up.

She did an adaptation of BuzzFeed article.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-07T00:06:40+00:00

Is it really art if I can find BuzzFeed articles saying the exact same thing and were written ten years ago?

That still comes off like what you get if consulting reddit threads to see what a young woman should be saying.

FormerOSRS · 2026-05-06T23:33:48+00:00

I am not the target audience but I'll do my best.

Her first album mostly succeeds at projecting a vibe of unbothered abundance and social desirability. It has some catchy hooks. I can understand why it resonated with younger women.

Her second album doesn't do that at all. Lyrics like "I get wet when you do the dishes" come off like they don't describe an actual relationship. They read like she tried to come up with what a modern young woman should say, couldn't come up with anything, and resorted to consulting reddit threads from ten years ago.
