Warning: This post holds sarcasm. Lots of it. There's no constructive point to this. I'm just incredulous about the...god, I don't even want to say it's a belief system, but apparently it is. Wow. Just, wow. Read for entertainment or to get your jimmies rustled. Enjoy it (or not)!

Just discovered /r/TheRedPill. Just realized this is what a friend of mine kept trying to explain to me a while back. It gave me as bad a taste then as it does now. I'm...flabbergasted. I read a lot of shit posts today, but...this one...wow. I just read this thread and I have to vent:

All this talk about needy love and how to "hide" it and shit...

Dear Mr. R. Pill,

You mean to tell me, dear, dude, that...what you're essentially saying is that...in order to attract women, you have to show emotional restraint? In other words, you have to have some semblance of self-control? Right?

Geeze!

You mean to tell ME, that YOU have to behave like an adult in order to attract an adult? You mean, appearing as if you're taking into consideration the boundaries of the person you supposedly seem to admire, being conscious of the mental and emotional burden you might be pushing on a person of interest (that you just fucking met and are getting to know), being a person that seems pretty fucking stable emotionally, is the thing to do in order to seem attractive?

Hot damn!

And this regulation should continue throughout courting, you say? Even within an established relationship??

No. Fucking. Way.

Why, that almost makes it seem like caring. Are you telling me...that...in order to attract someone and receive love, you have to think of the needs of another person ahead of your own? That you do so in the hopes of receiving the same in return?

Well, fuck. me.

And...that, while doing so, you have to set your own boundaries and make sure they're respected? That, while you regulate yourself and evaluate compatibility, you have to also explicitly express that you have a romantically/sexually interest? You're saying that you have to be CLEAR about that shit?!?!?

Oh. My. Gooood.

Mr. R. Pill, let me tell you ....you've almost got it. You're riiiiiight there, but fuck it all, the words you choose and the tone you use to make your point ruins the enlightening discovery you've yet to realize.

Brother.

The question isn't "why are women not attracted to men who love them?", it's:

Why the fuck have people not learned to respect each other?

Seriously,

Know your values. Know your priorities. Work on life. Love yourself. Know your needs. Know your wants. Work on the difference. Love yourself. Meet another. R.E.S.P.E.C.T It's all a matter of com.pa.ti.bi.li.ty! R.E.S.P.E.C.T Human you to human me! That's right, we're the same you see!

Motherfucking damn I can't believe I just wasted my time on that subreddit...fuck.
