What emotions do women feel?

women only feel the need for shoes and Alpha Males

They feel the regular emotions everyone else does.

It's fucking bullshit to believe that women can't be empathetic. Here's a list of the things I am capable of feeling: amusement (the best), happiness, love, lust, jealousy, fear, annoyance, pity, sadness, disgust, guilt, shame, and fear. I'm definitely capable of empathy but I feel pity more often.

These are general statements, but think that hardcore feminists often do lack empathy. I also think that TRP people who subscribe to the beliefs you are describing also generally lack empathy. This is not an issue confined to one gender or another, I believe it is a societal issue that has many nuanced causes.

For various reasons, we live in a very politically and culturally polarizing society. Any extreme ideology often discourages empathy for the perceived enemy of their ideology. This is through the use of stereotypes (extreme feminists may view all men as evil, rapists, sexist, whatever. On places like the red pill, women are hamsters, children, inferior, sluts, whatever). Both attitudes feed the other and when they meet, provide validity to the other's beliefs.

So I'm trying to convey this to you, because I think it is quite easy to fall into these kinds of mental traps.

Beyond what you see with these extremes, our culture does not value empathy. We are currently very individualistic. Note: I'm NOT advocating a political ideology, but capitalism does reward productivity over empathy. I'm not likely to find a well paying job for displaying great empathy. If I don't have a well paying job, I may not be able to afford the lifestyle I aspire to. To varying extents, this kind of society encourages me to prioritize my needs over the needs of others. This does have cultural effects, but also psychological and interpersonal effects.

Of course, there are numerous positives to this kind of society as well that deserve consideration, so I'm not advocating we get rid of capitalism. Again, nuance.

As for your question, yes - women are capable of experiencing love, empathy and the full range of emotions men experience. Most of my close female friends do love men and empathize with their struggles and misfortunes as well. Same for my male friends and partners. I have met women who lack these qualities, as I have met men who lack these qualities. I choose not to be close to individuals who act as the *latter, but no - this isn't always easy to find depending on how social you are, what community you live in, even your age, etc.

Edit: I said former when I meant latter. My bad.

Random people on the internet do not state scientific facts, they state their own opinions. Stop breaking your head over this bullshit.

Florence Nightingale wrote on the subject of women's lack of sympathy (she was writing a critical response to a male author's book). You might find her insights interesting, not least of all because she's a woman.

In general, I hold her observations to be fairly accurate and well-elabourated.

Obviously women feel emotions. Hell, molerats and dogs feel emotions. They possess the limbic system and adrenal glands necessary for a full emotional range. Those tears come from somewhere.

Women commit suicide because - like men - they can feel like a burden for their mere existence and imagine they would be better off dead than alive. I weep for both. Cold world.

They just don't feel empathy for weak men. Surprise surprise, neither do men. Nobody feels sorry for disposable males, and the more weak they are, the more disposable.

Where RP takes the next step, however, is that women - on average - can be more ... shallow with their emotional depth. This allows them to get over break-ups in-between a menstrual cycle as they trade up to a better man while they absolutely disregard all those shared memories together, tender loving moments, or other fairy-tale concepts. It might as well have never existed.

But I'll throw a little Purple Pill in this mix: women have far, far better support groups than men and - most of all and this is most important - people give a shit about their suffering. So that could easily be the source of their supposed shallowness: the hurt they do feel, they "get over" with hugs, support, and a healthy dose of hypoagentic rationalization for every beta orbiter's shoulder to cry on.

To quote some poster here

I have a name :(

OP, all of your emotions are real, it's just that your understanding of them is wrong. Women understand empathy from a more logical perspective, it is not a visceral feeling. Women aren't more empathetic than men at all, it's just that they're more emotive and sensitive so they cry at the thought of someone in suffering, but they aren't really empathizing with that person.

This doesn't mean you're a bad person or that your emotions aren't real. Of course all of your emotions are real, it would be ludicrous for anyone to suggest otherwise.

Women don't love men. They generally love children alright, often at cost to their lives.

Mostly I just move between really excited and slightly less excited, depending on the situation.

Women feel all the emotions we do, they just lack the self awareness and introspection to control them.
