		<description><![CDATA[This whole thing can be kind of compared to bicycle racing. A guy who used to race with us never kept up at really intense hammer time. He always got dropped and complained about himself for it. He was apparently trying hard but could never stay with the pack. He was capable but wasn&#039;t training consistently or eating well. He asked everyone questions, TALKED techniques, diet, training, etc. and regularly complained about his performance. One day he asked me, &quot;Man! how can you guys go 30 mph, I just cant seem to do it?

The answer somehow popped into my head, &quot;If you never go 30, you&#039;ll never go 30&quot;.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was not going to comment, but @bluepillprofessor if you think every man can be an Alpha then you are smoking the good stuff. You should meet my brother. Wife tells him when to brush his teeth. What clothes to wear. How fast to drive. They have not had sex in years. She is fat and repulsive good bless her heart ( so is he). But that coward brother of mine an Alpha? He let me get beat up by four dirty rednecks in a parking lot a few years ago. He ran after opening his dumb ass mouth. Alpha? I wish most of my family members were Alpha. Shit, I&#039;m not even Alpha by far.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;“The beta can possibly become more alpha by being admired, respected, desired, felt addicted to, etc. but realistically, I don’t think many women do that for a beta husband/man.”

All the binary responses to this proposition.  You can&#039;t turn a Beta into an Alpha.  BULLSHIT!  Alpha-Beta is on a continuum it is not either or.

There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that a determined woman can and will increase the Alpha of her man by showing him respect and fucking him silly.

My question is why is there such opposition to this proposition?  

Why are women seemingly completely opposed to the notion of even providing a false sense of respect and admiration?  

Why is it impossible for a woman to take one for the team and at least ACT with respect towards the husband she helped Beta?  

Why do men think that getting respect and admiration from a woman would not change him for the better?

Why do prostitutes offer this exact service for money when wives could offer it for a better husband and a better life?

The idea that a woman cannot respect a man who learns how to be Alpha is practically a Rollo maxim but I think it is flawed.  EVERY man learns how to be Alpha at some point.  They had interactions with women.  Lots of people assume they were a &quot;Natural&quot; and that is why those interactions with women went well.  But isn&#039;t it possible it was those early positive interactions that nurtured and even created the &quot;Natural.&quot;

On the nature/nurture debate, the male/female divide is a chasm but I suspect the Alpha/Beta divide in men is not such a hard gap to mind.]]></description>

		<title>Comment on Saving the Best by Brett Stevens</title>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems to me there are a bunch of issues here. The first is the female strategy of having sex with exciting men while settling down with nerds. I don&#039;t use the terms Alpha and Beta here because over the years I&#039;ve seen how the studs rarely are actually Alphas. They&#039;re bad boys and those are fun until they hit their mid-30s and then they turn blown-out and creepy.

The big issue that&#039;s hiding here is that anonymity in a society permits this behavior. Living in a big city, where no one knows you, your actions are essentially anonymous. This allows people to act like whores and assume there will be no consequences. For both of the people in this story, there were consequences: he got a whore, she got a wimp.

Another question that is missing here is that of quality of women. Ultimately, two lower-status people found each other. No woman with a functional brain is going to behave the way she did. It is not natural behavior for someone of any higher intelligence or who is not an abuse victim (people from unstable and abusive families tend to seek degradation). She knew she had a few good years of being cute when she was young, so she milked it, and then settled down with a nerd. It&#039;s no wonder the sex was bad; her intent toward him was entirely different than it was toward the studs railing her when she was younger. That was fun, and gave her bragging rights among her fellow witless young females. When she got older, she wanted marriage and kids for a different form of bragging right.

I think Red Pill strategies make sense if you&#039;re trying to find a way to bang chicks. But keep in mind that you have them removed yourself from the market for quality women, much as this woman removed herself from the market for a quality man. Much of his story is pathetic. He needed to have a few drinks just to talk to her? That sounds like a weepy Hollywood manchild, not a man. Then he runs away and doesn&#039;t make a clean break, signaling indecisiveness. At that point, the realistic end is for him to run on home with a Feeldoe and let her peg him.

Traditional living -- chastity, honor and pride -- allows both men and women to avoid degrading themselves and have happy marriages. In this story however, an insincere man met an insincere woman and they have been manipulating each other ever since. It&#039;s hard to have any sympathy for anyone in the story, least of all the children, who are the product of bad DNA on both sides.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m coming to the suspicion that women&#039;s revulsion towards Beta male psychology, personality and behaviors is an evolved instinct.

There is a female hindbrain, limbic sensitivity to Beta behavioral patterns. This leads me to believe that after a certain threshold of tolerance women&#039;s perception of that Beta is set for her. 

After that threshold forced obligation to bolstering his confidence isn&#039;t even an afterthought to a woman, thus compliments and admiration are an alien concept to her. So trying to convince women they ought to compliment more, respect more, admire more runs counter to what her hindbrain Hypergamy expects is her optimal due.

Thats why it&#039;s so offensive – how dare GWADT tell her to behave counter to her Hypergamous imperative when she&#039;s concluded a man is Beta? It&#039;s like suggesting she throw her life away betting more on a horse that&#039;s already lost the race.]]></description>
