This post should be required reading for all younger men who are thinking of getting married (or ones already in a LTR). You have to let a woman know that at any time she can be replaced (not overtly like Rollo suggests..but in subtle ways). Remember this: never give ground, always call a woman out on her bullshit (or bluff) and never be afraid to tell her ‘no’.

Woman are always looking to shit test….even the married ones.

I had to look this post up because I remember the picture and I caught part of the show Scandal on tv. The show looks to be based on this. The main character Olivia is trying to get some guy held in a prison moved.
The love interest character and her father have influence on where the guy can be placed.
The love interest in a scene demands to know if there’s still hope between him and Olivia. She begrudgingly admits yes. So of course it follows the prisoner gets moved, Olivia’s father gets mad that he’s been moved, leading to the show ending confrontation scene of her father demanding to know what happened.
Olivia proudly states she has weapons he can’t possibly possess.
Yada yada.

If I’d known this world about 10 years ago, my life would be different (I think – maybe I would have denied the truth, you never know and you can’t go back). But my STBXW said the perfect thing to me one day – during a fight we had, at a time when I was still fighting back from a failed business venture, out of cash, out of savings, wondering how we were going to pay the rent and buy groceries – she said…

“If I have to get a job, then I don’t need YOU!”

In my blue pill state, I didn’t realize the absolute truth she was speaking to me at the time. As it was, it hurt that she said something like that – hell, we’d been married for about 10 years, had three kids, she was all gung ho about the business venture and the fact that I had secure two rounds of angle funding – but when push came to shove – she was not there to support me, but truly only her and her needs. In that short sentence of 10 words, she summed up the way the world really worked – but not until about 6 months ago, did I really start to see the truth of that statement. To me, she summed up her agenda, that I was to be the best and most productive mule and if I wasn’t going to do that, then she’d need to find another mule.

I wasted my 40’s trying to be a better mule and we made it out of the place we were to a much better place – only to have her question WHY I didn’t want to have sex with her anymore, why I didn’t find her attractive, why I didn’t spend more time with her. And towards the end, why I hated her so much.

As a plugged in Beta poster child, all I could tell her was that I was doing my best, that I would try harder, thank her for her input and advice and that I’d be a better husband and father.

Now, as I start my 50’s – single father of three teenagers – I see things differently. I notice little things that are said, or done, or alluded to. With her and my kids – but beyond that into the rest of the world. I created the marriage I had – I take responsibility of not being the MAN and LEADER of that relationship and the fact that it failed. In some ways, that’s the hardest part of the red pill – realizing that the truth was always there to see and hear – that only through the blue pill filter is the truth not obvious. Men, listen to this – it is your responsibility to be a MAN and to LEAD – you can either do it or not, but you can’t deny that simple fact.

Vagina is not authority Women need to be told “NO”, in fact they want you to tell them “NO”, especially in light of the 800 pound gorilla in the room – her sexual agency.

Doing this in the face of our natural desire requires high levels of self control. This leads me to wonder if the path alpha (read: mastery over external scarce resources) begins - at least in part - with self mastery.

[…] Whether the reasonings are moral, entitlement or ‘honor bound’ in nature the end result is still feminine primacy. The sales pitch is one of manning up to benefit yourself, but the latent purpose is one of better qualifying for normalized feminine acceptance. What they cannot reconcile is that the same benefits that are inherent in becoming more Alpha (however you choose to define that) are the same traits that threaten his necessary position of subservience as a Beta. This is precisely why ‘real’ Game, and truly unplugging, cannot be sanitized. This social element wants to keep you plugged in; more Alpha, more confidence, more awareness, is a threat to fem-centrism. “It’s great that all this Game stuff has finally got you standing up for yourself, but remember who’s got the vagina.“ […]
