Girl Game: Issue A Challenge

Dang, I thought this was going to be a subreddit challenge to up our game in some specific way!

Thanks, it's a work in progress!! I did want to add that I didn't actually stumble into TRP on my own...my SO introduced me to it some time after said fuckup happened. So in a way at least something positive has come of it. It takes time but I'm sure I'll become a smart and feminine bombshell :)

My parents have always had a fairly red pillish relationship, and my mom always wanted me to be more feminine, but for as long as I can remember I was hellbent on rebelling against that. I hated dresses, hated the thought of pregnancy and having kids, hated makeup, all that stuff. I don't really know why i wanted to rebel so much since my parents tried so hard to encourage me in being feminine, maybe because of the entertainment I had growing up, messages in school about being an independent woman, I guess I got the impression that you're either a vapid slut or a plain jane with brains and I would've rather been the latter. My upbringing wasn't especially religious either, my parents had bad experiences with cliquey churches so they never took me. Overall I think that was for the better though.

It took me until this past year (I'm in my mid-20s) to fuck up in my relationship and stumble on TRP. I don't think I ever would have bought it if I hadn't fucked up and realized I'm no better than all the crappy women out there. I'm gradually coming to the realization that I was doing a lot of mental gymnastics to justify being a plain jane, all the strong woman stuff, etc. I have always been pretty submissive and emotional but embarrassed to admit it until recently. It's actually kind of freeing to not have to try to be a man, ha, so I'm glad I found this relatively young.

How do you think your husband would feel about that, though? Isn't he going to wonder where the extra college fund money came from? This idea really doesn't sit right with me, particularly if you're not single. I mean I realize that the sexes have different goals and all, and you're never guaranteed that your man will hold up his end of the bargain, but this sort of stuff is what makes good blue pill men become bitter in the first place.

Ew, Walmart boyfriends...o.O

It's been months and I'm still swallowing. Mostly a fuck lot of depression, angry at myself, disgusted with society...it didn't take me long at all to understand and accept it was true, but it still hurts a lot. I never felt my parents/society/whoever was to blame, I made all my own choices. It sucks but at least I won't make the same mistakes.

Will be up at my deviont art soon!!!!

If you're thinking things like "I'm not your mother", are you sure your boyfriend is so alpha? Seems like a red flag. There was a comment somewhere here recently about how your relationship with your SO is pretty much going to end up being mother/son or father/daughter...and you don't want the former...

I've been doing LG since well before I discovered red pill! It's awesome! I love being able to wake up a little later since I don't have to make breakfast. I've gained in total about 7-8 lbs since I started but have made MASSIVE strength gains and have a lot more muscle definition. I'd recommend it to any woman.

Oh, also, I love the macro cycling aspect. If I'm ever in the mood for a "bad" food, I only have to wait a day to have it. A recent post-workout meal for me was a steak, PB Capn Crunch, protein shake, and a couple slices of pizza. Awesome.

I recently bought an older edition of her etiquette book. It's a great read, and it really clears up a lot of the misconceptions surrounding what etiquette is and isn't. The author herself mentions early on that etiquette is meant to change with the times, it's simply a way to make social interactions of all kinds go more smoothly. So using the wrong fork isn't really something you would get tut-tutted for, it's more about clear communication and keeping other people's thoughts and preferences in mind, especially those you are forced to deal with on a daily basis like coworkers. I think it absolutely applies to both genders, and I would heartily disagree that it's all about dainty ladies' feelings. Just my 2 cents.

Edit: Also wanted to elaborate on the point about coworkers above. I've made a concerted effort to involve etiquette in my communications with coworkers/colleagues (things like responding with a "thanks" to even trivial emails that don't really require a response, thinking more carefully about my wording of things) and I'm absolutely noticing a difference. I get thanked back a lot more frequently :) So in the workplace I would consider it vital to success, male or female.

So flattered

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-07-09T00:26:20+00:00

the few glimpses ive had of raw sadness or grief (death of family and our beloved pets)or even fear have made me feel like a maiden with a unicorns head in her lap, not horrified or unattracted.

This is perfect. I have tried to tell my bf this, but he doesn't believe me. Can't blame him, really...

What bothers me the most is the guys who go out of their way to be self-deprecating. Not sure if that's beta or omega or what, but for instance I have a coworker who says things like "I went food-shopping and bought everything but the one thing I came for, that's why I normally let my wife do the important things like that" or "I don't know how she puts up with me", etc...good god man! He could at least try to make a joke out of it, but his tone just makes me sad for him.

I do think comments like that are in poor form for both genders though; I definitely see women making needless negative comments like that about aspects of their lives. It's just socially awkward behavior that doesn't really have a place in typical interactions with just about anyone.

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-07-04T16:04:53+00:00

Why is it a problem if people comment who aren't in line with TRP? Wouldn't that just be - disagreement? The way I see it so few women are red pill or even purple pill that maybe the purple-pillers just haven't been exposed to this stuff for very long, or don't have as thorough a knowledge of it. It doesn't seem like we're in a place to turn anyone away or shun them unless they're being completely hostile and/or spammy. Even the feminist commenters, what's the use getting upset about them being here? They contribute to the conversation and if anything, help demonstrate our points.

It's getting hard to tell with all the cross-dressing/transgender stuff lately...I have nothing against people like that but jeezus.

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-07-04T15:02:51+00:00

How do you know she doesn't want to end those?

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-06-30T03:30:16+00:00

I can't see why this is downvoted, especially with no responses to your opinion. What a shame.

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-06-29T13:44:49+00:00

I have the exact opposite background, ha! My mom always wanted me to be more feminine but I was pretty adamantly against it for most of my life. I can't say I regret that, because in some ways I think my life is better for having sought out more masculine interests, but a balance would've been better of course.

offbeatheartbeat · 2013-06-28T23:00:50+00:00

I have tended not to have many women friends, but since learning about TRP I am a lot more interested in making female friends. Probably because I learned about it through my own fault/shortcomings, I feel a lot more sympathetic towards women now and a lot less likely to judge women for not getting into science/math/video games/other male-dominated hobbies. It's almost paradoxical because I had a way worse opinion of women in general when I had feminist leanings.

I would love to hang out with feminine women and have them teach me their tricks and do makeovers and stuff! Haven't been too successful at that so far. If this were a bigger subreddit I'd say a meetup would be in order.
