Build a Better Beta

For women, nothing is both as frightening and arousing than a Man aware of his own value.

[In light of Aunt Giggles recently going off her meds and clamoring for her weekend bender of attention, I’ve decided to re-post this from December of 2011. Considering the hostility lobbed at the manosphere lately I thought it was quite prophetic.]

________________________________________________

I got a metric ton of feedback with regards to my Mrs. Doubtfire post and the notion of Game being co-opted to serve the feminine imperative. This sparked an interesting exchange on more than a few blogs and forums. All of this led me to do a bit of research into how Game principles, not necessarily Game in practice, is being subverted to address feminine-centric mandates. Even the idea of ‘false flag‘ blogging in the manosphere has been suggested as a means to more effectively establish a male-specific popular perspective that might be considered more legitimate.

The problem intrinsic to all of that is that masculinity is now so ridiculed and delegitimized in our feminine-centric reality that any (lame) attempts at subterfuge only make the manosphere look even more like the boys club in the treehouse shooting spitwads at the “mature” girls below. It’s going to come off as game-playing and juvenile, and only serve to make any legitimate point or appeals to logic appear self-serving. That said, I do understand the necessity to be covert in expressing the principles behind Game from a pro-masculine perspective. Men blogging in the manosphere, whether it’s Game theory, PUA, MRA or MGTOW, all assume a horrible risk for publicly expressing their views that a proponent of feminism would rarely need to consider. Professionally, personally, and to an extent, even physically, manosphere bloggers paint a big target on themselves that very few people would sympathize with their being damaged for their outspokenness. If it looks like patriarchy, it’s OK to set their home on fire, and a feminized world of angry women and their identifier mangina sycophants will line up with torches to do so.

Building a Better Beta

None of this is really even a concern for the proponents of a fem-centric culture; they can rest comfortably in a self-affirming, social echo chamber without any real fear of persecution or risk to their career or reputations. However, the utility of exploiting Game in theory (not in practice) to better serve that female centrism hasn’t gone unnoticed. This has given rise to what might be called “sanitized Game” – take the primary elements of Game to build a better Beta. With such an overwhelming social undercurrent for men to ‘Man-Up’ today it’s really simple pragmatism to reinterpret Game to serve the expectations and entitlements inherent in fem-centrism. Thus we see Game concepts being co-opted by social conservatives, so-called female manosphere sympathizers and christo-religious revisionists all blogging in disclaimered agreement with Game principles insofar as it serves their particular delusion. What they fail to recognize is that, for all of their efforts to contort Game into their personal agenda’s boxes, they’re still living in and fostering a feminine-centric imperative. If there’s a definition of the Matrix, this is it.

I would argue that most, if not all, are unaware that this is the latent purpose they’re serving. The overarching  point is to create a more acceptable man for a female defined goal, NOT to truly empower any man. There is no feminine opposite to this; there is no counter effort to make women more acceptable to men – in fact this is actively resisted and cast as a form of slavish subservience. This is the extent of the feminine reality; it’s so instaurating that men, with the aid of  “concerned women”, will spend lifetimes seeking ways to better qualify themselves for feminine approval. That’s the better Beta they hope to create. One who will Man-Up and be the Alpha as situations and use would warrant, but Beta enough to be subservient to the feminine imperative. They seek a man to be proud of, one who’s association reflects a statement of their own quality, yet one they still have implicit control over.

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.

The Evolution of Game

In the beginning, Game was about little more than racking up lay-counts. For some guys this will never change; you can’t ignore the purely seductionist intent of the origins of Game. Game was (is) for getting laid, and along with that now comes a sort of stigma of the Player. It’s against the interests of the feminine imperative that a man might conceivably have some kind of secret, learned system that bypasses her (mythological) feminine intuitions and natural reservations. That’s a power that men have sought for millennia. Some might realize it to a degree through power, fame or fortune, but to distribute this figurative ability en masse would be a power shift that would put women at men’s mercy. With great power, should come great responsibility. This is the fear that Game represents to the feminine – even the concept of men ‘understanding’ women’s natures must necessarily be ridiculed and shamed even in the attempt. When women are knowable they lose the power of their only actionable agency over men.

Game has evolved into much more than just a set of replicable behaviors for PUAs to ply their craft and get laid. Somewhere along the way a man wondered why these behavior provoked the responses they do in women. What were the core elements that these behaviors and attitudes were operating on in women? Game is still about getting laid, but it’s progressed beyond just the practical. Game is really a catch-all term now for lack of a better one. It’s moved on to the theory, the principle and the psychology that makes us better Men, and makes women knowable. It’s very important that the vision you have of being a “better Man” originates with YOU, not with the idealisms of a plugged in moralist or women so fearful of your new awareness that they’ll make concerted efforts to supplant it with what makes you a better servant of their insecure imperative. Resist the idea of becoming a better Beta in girl-world and focus on being that Alpha Man as you define it.

This post is truly eye-opening and revealing of the culture we are living in today in America. This post has opened my eyes to my state as a man as I make a diligent effort to transition from greater beta to lower-mid alpha. In any event, I have a question Rollo, I noticed that I am always challenged by others when my ‘alpha side’ is displayed; usually people will try to be nice to me to try to get me to be beta or they become outright rude and disrespectful. Do you have any advice on how to handle this?… Read more »

Alpha has no meaning, context or relevance without women. By self-defining Alpha, men would merely switch the object of worship from women to men. Designing a better cart will not change the fact that it’s still behind the horse. “Thus we see Game concepts being co-opted by social conservatives, so-called female manosphere sympathizers and christo-religious revisionists all blogging in disclaimered agreement with Game principles insofar as it serves their particular delusion.” Why do you persist with this notion that the elders of the Manosphere – i.e. you, Roissy et all – invented the process that we’re now calling ‘Game’?

Maybe she finally drove that beta son of hers to eat a twelve gauge and is having guilt pangs. It must be tough growing up with a woman who birthed you that considers you a lower order lifeform compared to the guys your sister is servicing on weekends.

Then consider what her husband must think having to read his wife creaming over her past “alphas” and driving his daughter to service them, while disrespecting your son and heir.

That’s some devastating micro-aggression right there.

You may also want to address game concepts being used as scapegoats, ways to generate plausible deniability, and a basis for cost externalization.

Though with your devout “amorality,” I am not sure you are able.

Have you considered how your definitions of “alpha” and “hypergamy” influence you?

I think Aunt Giggles is in a difficult spot as I think she was sincerely hoping that she could become the sanitized face of game and cash in on her work in the media (as we know, women love fame). But she has clearly lost all credibility in the manosphere and has been bypassed by the media which is going directly to the source. 3rd MM’s appearance seems to have pissed her off as she has realized that her little project has become irrelevant (obviously the media reads the blogs and can see the writing on the wall) and will… Read more »

I’ve seen MGTOW compared to radical lesbian feminist separatists…

however, it seems like with the feminist separatist’s everyone was all, “don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out.”

MGTOW seems the most hated by all the Futrelle types and much of the manosphere….

obviously with the continued atomization of society and such, MGTOW is more an opting out and not giving two shits about being called a loser…

So, just by walking out of a bad situation why are these guys hated so much???

“So, just by walking out of a bad situation why are these guys hated so much???”

Because those guys, not PUAs, pose a real THREAT to the system. They are hated by women, PUAs, white knights aka every slave working for women. If men opt out of feminine game, if they stop fueling feminine imperative – recognizing women unless women behave, all the femi-system collapses. Women are helpless without men, they need them.

MGTOW might be fine for the cerebral low T types but not all men are cut from the same cloth.

Rollo is doing some serious good.

Rollo has been at the coal face (Sosauve and personal tragedy) and witnessed the emotional anguish good young men endure in the face of liberalized women.

I am certain his advice has saved lives.

His advice is amoral and while I may not agree with everything he writes he has helped countless men gain control of their personal lives.

@Gregg: Being the kind of man women want to sleep with is not a threat to the system, ipso facto. However, women have been sold the lie that they can be happy on the carousel forever, or marry whenever they want. The fact that men with options are no longer constrained, by both social convention and personal mores, to man up and marry those sluts is a decent-sized shock to the system. While I’m sympathetic to the men who simply choose to walk away, I think you ignore the fact that the feminine imperative will have its effect on you,… Read more »

The root of the problem at HUS is her unwillingness to accept that there is no female “dad or cad” filter. “Cad” is a retrospective definition applied to an Alpha boyfriend who wouldn’t commit. If she accepted that philosphy she might actually do some good. As it stands she’s basically giving out tickets to the Carousel. I suspect that some of her poster-girls for taking the pink pill are beginning to realize this. I was perusing the comments on a post of hers a couple of weeks ago and one of her favored female comments confessed to breaking up with… Read more »

I don’t think there is anything inherently wrong with the “Build a Better Beta” concept. Game can be used to make marriage worthy betas more attractive to women, and that would be a good thing for both sexes. The problem is when anything that isn’t “build a better beta” is criticized because of feminine imperative.

@Ton: What’s the use of a slave bettering himself for himself instead of for his master? The farmerette doesn’t need the ox to learn how to jump fences; she needs it to pull the plow. The inherent flaw of which you speak (and I agree) is a flaw only from the man’s perspective. From the viewpoint of the Female Imperative, it’s a feature.

“Game can be used to make marriage worthy betas more attractive to women, and that would be a good thing for both sexes.”

Why? Specifically, fulfilling which female desires would be a “good thing?”

@Mark Minter And so I guess RadFems get even more pissed off about men pissing on the toilet seats then typical women, so they fucking despise t-girls. RadFems hate T-girls because T-girls are removing themselves from the influence of the feminine imperative and switching teams. To them, it’s like watching players from the team you’re routing on the field suddenly run across the field, switch jerseys in the process, and be forced to cheer on these new recruits as if they were part of you all along. The radfems are essentially being asked to essentially call these t-girls beautiful or… Read more »

I think radfems are just mad that even men can turn into better women than they are.

“but creeps that also want to be the object of desire.” Hmmm, sounds a lot like competition anxiety and/or dread if you ask me. Women get the men they deserve, and since 1966, literally and figuratively, by order of degree that’s made men who are better women than women. TS’s are the perfect storm – better looking, more in tune with the male sex response and more willing to embrace it for the sake of embracing it and not resource transferral, competition anxiety, slut shaming, indignation, female objectification, ridicule through imitation, dread of feminine incompetence, shall I go on?

Rollo, when you explain it in those terms, I have to admit, it is a brilliant strategy. Utterly ruthless but crystalline in its logic. More ‘Woman’ than ‘Woman’…

Ok… MTF TS’s have an advantage over this guy/gal? I think that they would?

“It was in his therapy that he admitted, for the first time, that he felt like a man.”

How the fuck would she know what it felt to be a man?

Did not expect the comments on this thread to top the last one but they did. I am in agreement with Biff that HUS does her best for team Gal and does recognize the harm feminism and the cock carosel does to women. She only crosses the line occasionally like last week dissing 3MM George for not coming out of the shadows. Usual Minter wisdom. But any comments that have Krauser going all Ayn Rand is special.

If girls get that same feeling when the beta comes than I can understand why they blow men out. That reminds me. There have been three times in my life that I have made the “mistake” of having sex with women who fall below my threshold of attractiveness, and in each and every case I couldn’t wait to get as far away from them as I possibly could after the deed was done. It was a completely unconscious response. I actually felt “dirty” for having subjected myself to that. And none of them were total beasts- they were probably in… Read more »

Top post, insightful observations.

FreeNortherner has a post on the Madonna/Whore complex:

https://freenortherner.wordpress.com/2013/04/05/the-two-male-sexual-appetites/

“Hot elicits a purely consumptive sexual desire. Cute is the type of attractiveness that elicits the protective desire.”

I think Transexuals play the whore card more extrovertly than women (they don’t have a protective desire, they’re men after all) and women find it threatening.

I’d love to know why the lady boy phenomenon is so prevalent in Patriarchal societies (Thailand, Philippines, Turkey etc).

Thank you kindly Kate. Were’ s the break down?…BC has it right, the female imperative gets in the way. Much of what a woman calls masculine improvement is nothing like making a man more masculine, or a better version of himself. Typically a woman wants a man to improve in ways that benefit her, regardless if it will benefit him, or those around him, or if the change is a net positive or worth the overall effort. And often those bit of self improvement are illusions. One of my key tenets in dealing with women is y’all cannot tell the… Read more »

How can you complain about building a better beta? Much of game is about building a better beta. Training a beta to jump through the necessary hoops to pretend to be an alpha, in order to accommodate insane, destructive female preferences. Skill at game does not make a beta into an alpha. It just makes him a trained animal, skilled at mimicry. The only way to make a beta into an alpha is to give him structural alpha. That requires reasserting control over our women at a societal level. Until then, it is either PUA (assuming it remains underground and… Read more »

@Ton: Thanks for the reply!

This interested me very much: “I’ve only had one woman want to help me improve in an area I wanted to become better in.” I’m really curious what this area was. I’ve encouraged men in artistic, business, educational, and fitness goals, none of which did I ever expect to benefit from directly. I just wanted to be supportive of what they were interested in. While some I suppose could have been unconsciously ulterior, they were mostly altruistic motives.

The ones that will get the betas laid, obviously.., For example, if a beta learns to fulfill the female desire for dominance, he and the female are both better off.

Your welcome Kate.

She knew a lot about nutrition and helped me eat better to drop a weight class and maintain my strength. She also decided to start fucking other men in the 1st 30 days of a deployment so we’re no longer close.

@Kate: [blockquote}@Rol: Exactly. When life is too easy, we make up problems.[/blockquote} Well, rather than “make up problems,” I think we inevitably encounter problems because we’ve eliminated activities that were crucial to survival for hundreds of thousands of years. Women are said to be amoral, I believe this is true for the most part and necessary. They provide a unique set of checks and balances to the male gender, but of course it’s a very unpleasant thing right now because we’ve never been in this position before. Game is required to balance these “tests” because our natural environment is no… Read more »

Yes, we think we’ve improved things when whether we are or not is debatable. Each change brings a host of new issues with problems to be solved. Its like medication that will cure you with a hundred side effects.
