Saving the Best

carousel

To start off today’s topic I thought I’d repost a Red Pill reddit thread I received a link-back to last week. Rather than give you my own summary of this guy’s situation, I felt the impact would be more significant by posting it in its entirety; and also because I don’t believe the guy really got a fair hearing on his original post.

I posted this earlier on another subreddit but it ended up getting removed because of fighting in the comments. I’ll sum up what happened thus far. I met my wife 7 years ago, she was extremely picky when it came to sex. She told me she only has been with 1 other guy before. She would never give a blow job, only would do certain positions and found almost every sex act degrading. I was frustrated by this, but I really liked her and hoped over the years she would open up sexually. Over the years, it never got any better but I learned to get over it. Well I ended up finding an old video from her college days of her engaging in group sex with 6 other people 5 guys 1 girl. In the video she has anal sex, oral sex, gets double teamed, and yells multiple times in the video she is a “I am a filthy whore.” All of it she was enthusiastic about it. I ended up feeling really sad. I can understand certain stuff people don’t want to do, but it wasn’t the fact she didn’t want to do them. She didn’t want to do them with me but every other guy she was their whore. I was angry hurt and I ended up saying some stupid shit to my wife.

I asked her if she could drop our daughter off at her sister’s house because I wanted to talk to her. She asked why, I told her we’d discuss after she came back.

I don’t remember all the details of the conversation, so I’ll try my best to sum it up. I was drinking a bit before she came which wasn’t the best idea.

Me: Is there anything about your past you have been hiding about me?

Her: Why are we talking about this?

Me: I just want to know were you in any type of porn or anything like that?

Her: are you taking drugs?

Me: I found your video from college with the other guys. I don’t know who you are anymore and I feel ill being around you.

She starts crying.

Me: Do you have anything to say?

She continues to cry. This was pointless I go to grab my keys to leave. And she tries to stop me.

Me: If you don’t want me to leave then I need you to be 100% honest with me, and tell me why you lied to me for all these years.

She: I didn’t want you to think I was a slut

Me: I would have been perfectly fine if you told me, I would have loved to have done those wild things with you. Look I get it I don’t turn you on like those other guys do. You liked sucking their dicks but not mine.

She: It’s not that, I didn’t want you to think less of me.

Me: No it is exactly that, there is a thing lying about sleeping with other guys. It’s not that you didn’t like doing those things. You didn’t like doing them with me.

She: I can do that stuff with you. I am attracted to you, you know that.

Me: I don’t want you to do it because you feel like you have to. I want someone that actually desires me.

She: I can change I promise don’t ruin our marriage over this we can work things out. We can go to marriage counseling seriously talk to me.

Me: Marriage counseling won’t change how you feel about me. Look I will try marriage counseling but I want a trial separation for now.

She: Please don’t do this. Don’t throw away our marriage for what I did in college please.

Me: Stop fucking acting like it’s a one time thing. Be honest with me how many guys did you fuck before me. How many guys dicks have you sucked, and how many guys have you let fuck you in the ass.

She: why does it matter, I said I’ll do them with you

Me: I am so fucking lucky. I got married to a whore, that fucks like a prude.

She: Please don’t waste all of our marriage for this. I am willing to change.

Me: I am not divorcing you but I want a trial separation for now, and I want to see how things go, right now I feel sick looking at you.

I ended up leaving my wife kept trying to stop me. She kept on begging saying I could do anything I wanted with her, it was truly pathetic and I lost all respect for my wife the way she was trying to manipulate me with sex.

I am staying at a motel right now; I have been getting constant calls from my wife. She has been asking me where I am, if I tell her than she is going to confront me and I don’t feel like I am ready for that. I feel so fucking drained. I feel bad saying those things to my wife but I don’t know what else to do I am so fucking hurt over this.

As I said before I wouldn’t care if she had a promiscuous past, seriously, wouldn’t care but the fact she did all those things for other guys but doesn’t do them for me hurts me the deepest.

I don’t see how this marriage can be recovered. I can’t change her attraction to me. My father has recently has been diagnosed with a tumor in his lung, and that has already been stressing me out pretty badly.

Please tell me what exactly I can do, my confidence as a man has been destroyed. Before I found out about this, I tried to get my wife to open up sexually but she completely shot it down. I really believe she isn’t attracted to me in the way she was to those other guys. That’s why she felt completely fine being “their whore” but won’t give me a blow job. I want a woman that looks at me lustfully, not that has sex with me to fulfill “wifey duties.”

I don’t feel entitled to other types of sex with my wife. I want her to want to do them. Now even if she does do them it will be out of guilt, not out of desire. I don’t see how we can recover our marriage. I feel really shitty that I won’t be able to seem my daughter as much, especially during her younger years.

I have already made some calls to reroute my paychecks and get my finances in order if we do go for a divorce. My brother works at a big law firm, I am thinking about contacting him to at least see what I should be doing now. Thing is once I call him it becomes the point of no return, if I tell my family members than their image of my wife becomes destroyed. Also I’d have to check because right now she is dependent on me for health insurance, and I don’t want her to be deprived of that if we do divorce, because she has been having health issues. I don’t want to ruin anything but I can’t see how things would ever be okay. If you don’t have any advice for me and are just going to be judgmental please don’t waste your time commenting. I know I said some hurtful things in there but you don’t know the level of hurt I am feeling right now. I have apologized to my wife since then, but I don’t see how our relationship can be recovered.

Edit – I want to make things work, between me and my wife. I understand she doesn’t want to do certain sex acts. I am considering proposing to her the idea of an open marriage. That way we can still be together as a family and we both can have the fulfilling sex lives we want.

There’s a lot going on in this situation, but I think the first thing that should be addressed here is that, personally, I think these sorts of past life revelations are a lot more common than most men are comfortable in admitting. I wish I could say this was the first time I’ve ever encountered a story like his — it’s actually the 7th time, and four of those were personal accounts from men I’ve counseled.

As our culture becomes more technologically adept, electronic records – whether they’re ‘self-shots’, incriminating GNO pics uploaded to various forms of social media, male-stripper party videos, or amateur / semi-pro pornography – will have an increasingly greater role in filling the pieces of the puzzle that constitutes a woman’s relational and sexual past. The real problem will cease to be doing any actual detective work, and more about what a (Beta) man will allow himself to believe about his ‘special snowflake’ in contrast to the gestalt knowledge of women’s behaviors on whole.

There was a recent article posted on Return of Kings by Emmanuel Goldstein detailing the Game necessity of presuming all women are sluts. In light of stories like this it’s hard not to see the pragmatism in that, but at least when you are single, Game-aware and spinning plates you have the luxury and (should have) the foresight to know that even the Good Girls ‘Do’ have the inclination to go feral with the hot Alpha in the foam cannon party in Cancun on Spring Break when she’s in the proliferative phase of her ovulatory cycle.

Predictably, I’m sure the “ooh, ooh men do it too!” wing of the critics gallery will be the first to cry foul, as they ever have, about my drawing attention to the feral dynamics of sexual side of feminine hypergamy. And were it only about one side of women’s pluralistic sexual strategy (Alpha Fucks & Beta Bucks) they might have a point, but it’s the other half of the Hypergamic equation, the part that requires long term male provisioning paired with emotional investment that sets men’s short term sexual appetites apart from women’s short term Hypergamy.

The Best of Her

The author of this reddit thread is feeling the sharp end of that Hypergamic equation. While I’m sure there will be every effort made to paint this man’s wife as some fucked up, emotionally damaged, and conveniently, sexually abused victim (we don’t know this, but that was the default association in the comments of his original thread), the operative I’m driving at here isn’t about her individualized experiences, but the methodology she and all women use to justify their sexual pluralism.

Prior to the advent of technologies that could evidentially prove women’s sexual exploits (often proudly so now) the more visceral aspects of a woman’s sexuality, and the inconvenient hindbrain/hormonal prompts that motivate them, could be kept secret well enough to deceive a man with provisioning potential to commit to the long term security the other half of her Hypergamy demands. As the technology to record this becomes more ubiquitous, more permanent and fluid in its use, as men become more interconnected by it, and as women enjoy more self-affirmation from it, rationalizing her past indiscretions becomes more of an imperative.

Men saturated and conditioned over the better half of their lifetime by the feminine imperative to be the convenient cuckolds to women’s Hypergamy – men like the author of this confession – have an ego-invested interest in presuming the woman they pair with will be “giving him the best of herself” once his ship comes in and all of his patience and equalist beliefs finally pay off.

Only, men like this discover too late, usually well after they realize their commitment has hamstrung their SMV peak potential, that not only have they been a retroactive cuckold (sometimes even moralistically proud to be so), but they’ve been socially conditioned to be one, by their mothers, their emasculated fathers, their sisters, female friends, teachers and the whole of the feminine imperative’s effort for most of their lives.

One of the reasons I, and most of the manosphere, receive so much scorn from plugged-in, feminine primary society is that we risk to expose this process. This author’s story is the inconvenient truth of a pluralistic feminine sexual strategy. Women’s capacity to cash out of the SMP, to raise children, to create a semblance of a family life so conflicted with her single life, on what she thinks should be her terms, all rides on keeping men with a long term provisioning potential (greater Betas) ignorant of their pre-cuckolding and the conditioning that took so long to convince them would be their responsibility.

I am so fucking lucky. I got married to a whore, that fucks like a prude.

The primary reason men become preoccupied with women’s sexual past is rooted in ‘getting the best’ she has to offer him sexually. There is certainly more aspects to this (fidelity, secure attachment, etc.), but as I’ve stated before, all men want a slut, they just want her to be HIS slut. Once the belief that he’s getting the best sex she has to offer him is dispelled, viscerally and definitively, the nature of the Desire Dynamic comes into sharp focus.

I Want You to Want Me

Naturally, once a woman’s true sexual capacity is revealed after the establishment of her normalized, married sexuality, her first impetus is to preserve the provisioning she enjoyed while ‘her secret’ was working for her.

Me: No it is exactly that, there is a thing lying about sleeping with other guys. It’s not that you didn’t like doing those things. You didn’t like doing them with me.

She: I can do that stuff with you. I am attracted to you, you know that.

[…] She: Please don’t waste all of our marriage for this. I am willing to change

What we’re reading here is the script for negotiated desire. Her real desire isn’t for his satisfaction or any real resolution for the deception of her sexual pluralism, but rather a solipsistic maintaining of a normalcy for herself. Our author has no other rationalizations to fall back on, denial of his conditions are no longer sufficient, and he begins to realize a cruel red pill truth – you cannot negotiate genuine desire.

He wants her to want him, he wants her to desire sex with him with the same verve and enthusiasm she did with other men in her videos. He wants her sexual best, but her 7 years of unwillingness to give him that while enjoying the benefits of his provisioning, his patience, love and perseverance only puts her strategy, the Hypergamic strategy, into perfect focus. Her genuine desire, her sexual best was never intended for him in the first place.

Matt, the higher a girl’s sexual market value the less slutty/depraved she has to act to gain the same sexual attention. The fallacy is putting slutty and depraved like they are the same. A woman will slut it up (make it easy) to get attention from males she couldnt get otherwise, she will also put up with shit from high value men, and in a lot of cases, will LIKE to put up with shit from high value men.

Kate: It’s not about wanting to “jump” on someone or manufacturing outrage. And your comments have not been about illustrating “moral dilemmas”. Deciding whether or not to marry someone you’re not attracted to because he’ll give you money and a house is not a “moral dilemma”. Marriage fraud which serves the interest of one party but not the other is not a “moral” choice, nor does it present a difficult, “gray area” set of issues which require a lot of grappling with and resolving competing moral interests. It’s simply whether you’re going to choose an immoral course of conduct, or… Read more »

But you’re not framing it that way. You’re trying to frame marriage fraud as somehow morally correct and justifiable in some circumstances, probably depending on the woman’s real or perceived needs. You’re trying to frame a cold hearted decision by a woman to flat out use a man as a morally correct act, so long as that serves a perceived “greater good”. I don’t deny that women do this all the time. It is interesting to observe that many women tend to elevate resource provisioning to a level of almost moral need/entitlement.

And the only way to justify marriage fraud is to present it as one of many “hard” questions of “morality”. “Oh, it’s not cut and dried. See, there are nuances.” “She’s not ALL bad. She is a wife and mom. So this little lie should be excused.” “She needs a man to care for her. She needs a house.

We always go back to the same. For a woman, moral means “whatever serves my interests the most”. Whatever connections a woman has with the world they pass through the lense of herself. All the factors can be bended but she remains constant. It’s like every woman’s mind is a fallacy: A) Fraud is immoral. B) I am a moral person. C) Committing fraud would benefit me greatly. And here’s the twist: D) Since Im a moral person, the fraud I commit must be moral too C) Fraud is moral. * * * It’s like reading general relativity where the… Read more »

Perhaps her father didn’t get her the Schwinn bike she wanted so bad at age 10…so she took it out on him by getting gangbanged.

Or the serial killer wasn’t hugged enough by his mother…so that’s why he chopped up people to bits.

Thats why we fail at convincing women through logic. The conclusion doent just serve to evaluate reality: it changes their own perception about themselves, which cannot be done unless you address that directly.

Im thinking that strawman is the only possible way to solve this issue. Make it directly about themselves. Its not that your actions are bad, its that “you” are bad. Use shame, rhetorics, not logic. That’s what they are getting about the exchange anyway. That’s why they keep asking “what do you really mean with that” so use it. Women do adapt to shame.

“Its called “empathy.” … Putting yourself in someone else’s situation.” Part of the problem we have here, and by extension throughout society, is that women do not make a fair attempt to extend empathy with any sense of equality. Maybe it’s evolutionary (men are expendable), or maybe it’s caused by a lack of imagination (easier for a woman to imagine herself in the lying wife’s shoes)… Much ballyhoo about how women are far more “empathetic” than men (debatable… my gut clenched and blood pressure spiked as I read the story), but their capacity for empathy, and for whom they extend… Read more »

@Tin_Man I believe the only thing that the Christ said to the adulterating woman was, “Go and sin no more.” The sad thing is, there was no follow-up. As Christ’s words are the highest authority, perhaps she was impelled and compelled to obey, and live a good life. Or she still disobeyed, and sought other men out of a different town. A follow-up on that woman would have answered so many questions, even some not even asked here. Since many women do not even really acknowledge that authority today, it does not matter what Paul said. As God’s Laws of… Read more »

Morpheus: Resource provisioning in women’s minds takes on a moral dimension because it satisfies something they need for survival, and that children need for survival. Survival is good. Anything that benefits children is at the absolute pinnacle of today’s “moral” order. We can see this in political rhetoric and in the way our society is ordered. Well, to men, sex is a need. Men need sex because getting it frees them up to do things other than chase tail. In fact, getting sex frees men up to generate resources. Therefore, anything that gives men sex on demand, when they want/need… Read more »

Ha. Giggles wrote a post on sex brain differences, and there was a discussion about logic in the comments. One of the male commenters had in mind a certain idea of what “logic” means, and one of the female commenters chimed in and flat out stated that female logic is ***contextual*** which translated means the reasoning flows from the feelings in that moment.

And I forgot to include: Women also cast resource provisioning as a moral issue because that shuts down all debate, and casts anyone disagreeing or questioning it as “immoral” and “cold, cruel, and heartless.” Once something is deemed to be “moral” or “right”, that’s the end of it – it simply MUST be done and provided, and YOU must do or provide it. How can any sane, moral, decent human being possibly disagree with or question in any way this “moral” “need”? Disagreement and questioning are immediately shouted down. What women hear is “that man thinks innocent women and children… Read more »

Person B gets a little bent out of shape and points it out to person A. Person A then gets MORE bent out of shape over HOW person B pointed it out. Person A looks for things to criticize about person A to “defend themselves”. Things unrelated to the event in question.

@livingtree: You do know that most slut shaming is done by women as a means of keeping the price of sex high, right?

Men want sex, but they also want surety of paternity. In practical terms, for almost all of human history, that meant knocking up a virgin. If a woman wants to maximize the value of the mate she eventually attracts, she’d do well to minimize her N (or lie about it really well).

“Comfortable with her sexuality” sounds like a nice euphemism for “libertine.”

Somewhat of a hijack, but…
I would also add that those you call Churchians, may read the Bible, but they don’t study it. They listen to what the Priest/Pastor/Preacher says and just take it as “being right”. Most Churches don’t encourage open debate of ideals or varying points of view. Sad really, because at it’s core, the tenants of your religious beliefs become very core to how you “live your life”. Without healthy debate, it is just dogma and in many cases, regurgitated from generation to generation without much thought as to it’s validity.

Morpheus, The issue with male logic is that we tend to follow that straight-line. Female logic will take into account mitigating factors. However, the proper course for this is advisory, not determining. “You did not do this, you are wrong”-male logic “I’m actually a good person, see I did this other good thing”-female logic It’s emotionally motivated, but it shows you blind-spots.

I mean, the dilemma of morality over self-interest has not been tempered since Plato’s time.

So Kate, your logic is that it’s ok to exploit someone’s weakness (in your example, the man’s naivety about his status with you.

This opens a can of worms from an equality standpoint, b/c what then is wrong with a man exploiting a woman’s weakness (physically smaller, weaker) to satisfy his primal urge (sex)?

Morality may often seem opposed to the impulsive, short-term interests of the individual, but I disagree strongly that it is universally opposed to their best interest.

It attempts to spare the individual from the consequences of overindulgence in their baser natures. Otherwise, hard drug addicts would have to be considered the people who are most clearly acting in their own best interest, no? Also see: the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment.

In theory, D-Man, but you’re confusing “best interest” with self-interest. Self-interest is more immediate gratification of perceived need. Short-term need always, ALWAYS, 100% of the time, prioritizes over long-term need (and I use the term “need” somewhat liberally). In this frame of reference, the hard-drug addict IS in fact the person who is most motivated by self-interest, but not to best interest. Best interest is minimalist. We are not a culture of minimalists. Wouldn’t you agree? We want everything more bigger better faster now. We have let our self-interest become short-sighted.

Self-deception is what forces most people into making self-sacrificing commitments out of a sense of duty (which has becomes our new moral code, you can thank the Romans for that). Its total bullshit.

I mean, rationalized self-interest is practically a religion in the US, which is infiltrating the whole world via soft-imperialist, global infection of the self-interested free market, to the chagrin of Muslims everywhere, so trying to curb it now is kind of like holding back the tide. As in, impossible.

But starting with yourself is a good place. Its the only place, really, that a change can occur. Maybe one day more people will follow the lead and become rational-moralists rather than rational-self-interesteds, but I think probably the world will end in a fiery explosion before that happens.

Gold-digging whores may be epidemic, but it is not a new epidemic. Marriage contracts, as Jeremy pointed out earlier, are always, ALWAYS about self-interest (though he phrased it differently, that is the essence of it) – it is a contractual arrangement. Since self-interest is the motivation for marriage (despite whatever delusions we have convinced ourselves of to justify it as moral), then what is the new epidemic is the conflict of interest. The one advantage of traditional marriage is, I guess, everyone knows that the arrangement is: unlimited awesome sex of the man’s choosing, in exchange for room and board… Read more »

What they want and what they do are two different things. Inner depravity becomes outer sluttiness when the opportunity is taken, not when the… Read more »

Matt, How did you take my assertion: “Dude. Any depravity she has in herself will be maximized by her SMV. Into this: You assume that every woman has the same inner depravity level (even despite their upbringing?) […] You say that every woman on the planet is at their maximum whorishness You can do better than strawman. So, I agree with most of your refute, too. Since Im not saying that all women, nor that the prettiest women are ALSO the more depraved… what’s there to argue? A woman can be more and less depraved, and only one factor is… Read more »

Dr. Jeremy – “But what if desire does not precede arousal? That’s what University of British Columbia psychiatrist Rosemary Basson, M.D., discovered in interviews with hundreds of women. Contrary to the conventional model, for many women, desire is not the cause of lovemaking, but rather, its result. “Women,” Basson explains, “often begin sexual experiences feeling sexually neutral.” But as things heat up, so do they, and they eventually experience desire.” So what does this study have to say about a staple of the manoshpere – gina-tingles? If the tingle happens after escalation, I fear one of the three legs of… Read more »

Tinman – ” I can not tell you how amazing it is for me to take my kids to dinner and see other families out – and ALL of them have their mobile phones out. ”

True story, out at a football game. Guy and chick sitting together, but separated by two kids. He phoned her on his cell and they chatted. I was blown away.

Pathetic!

John – “The sex will dry up anyway. No matter what a man does, if he genuinely cares for her, the cooch will eventually close. Genuine love from a man, is the ultimate anti-aphrodisiac.”

Sorry John, wrong.

Rollo – “All those Strong Independent® women you see marching in solidarity at the slut walks are still selectively fucking the guys who turn them on, not random schlubs who don’t in order to make some social statement.”

Jesus, maybe I am an anarchist afterall, I mean, I have fucked a few fatties…..

@ DeNihilist So what does this study have to say about a staple of the manoshpere – gina-tingles? If the tingle happens after escalation, I fear one of the three legs of game is broken…. That depends on when you think escalation and “sexual experiences” actually begin. That is why things like eye contact, body language, kino, etc. are so important from the start. The point of the study is that women don’t feel desire until the man does something active and escalates. A good PUA is doing some form of physical and psychological escalation and creating at least a… Read more »

Hi, Firstly I’d like to say thank you to all the contributors here, both to the more intellectual/theoretical debaters and those who have contributed stories from their own lives. A special thanks of course to Rollo for the book which I bought and have read once, soon to be read again I think! I am a beta male at best! I haven’t really looked into the other categories (gamma, omega etc) but I’m sure I’d find too many of my characteristics in there to want to even know! I first came across the Red Pill from watching the Nick Krauser… Read more »

@Muttley Hey thanks for the narrative…truth of matter is “happiness” is yours, with or without a woman and always remember, loneliness is choice, not your “lot in life”. All that being said, do not waste more time getting out of your “shyness shell” – be reserved, be aloof, be whatever you want to be – but shy needs to be taken off the list. Personal opinion – put that on your goal list. And what I’m doing, it look at every interaction big and small as personal non-shy training. Thanks for sharing – and I’m a bit older than you… Read more »

Wow, that was awful. I see no hope for that marriage. He doesn’t even know who she is.
Lying about one’s sexual past is more a “female” thing (because it’s usually more important to men). But this isn’t “female” behavior, it’s the behavior of a fraud. She can’t be trusted. What else has she lied about? Does she lie every day/every third day/only about important things…he’ll never know, and it’s pointless to wonder. I feel for him.

Matt, They all want to be shit on during sex, if you are alpha enough. If a woman is being shit on during sex, with an alpha enough man, that’s because that’s the kind of sex and the kind of man she’s after. Women dont like to receive dominance from inferior males. Women love getting dominance from superior males. If a superior male does the “shit on” and she stays, that means she likes it. There’s absolutely no force holding down women to stay in relationships nowadays other than their own impulses, their own attraction and their own happiness. If… Read more »

Muttley, you’re a smart guy and clearly a decent human being. So that’s two huge pluses on your side. Another positive is that you know how to say no, and you’re prepared to be alone. Being psychologically strong enough to say “fuck it, I’d rather be alone than a sucker” is a good thing. The following is not necessarily directed at you personally, it’s just a bunch of thoughts I feel like rattling off right now One of the things that continues to help me is simply being vigilant about the negatives over which I might have some choice. If… Read more »

“…while 6-7 Beta sex partners drift off into obscurity when she pair-bonds with a sufficiently Alpha husband or partner….” **Rollo, do you actually believe this? Not rhetorical in the least bit.. I am struggling with this right now in my relationship. Something inside me tells me to move on. I truly believe I am engaging in Madonna/ Whore thought process all over again. Everything that she says and acts and that I witness tells me I am literally the only Alpha she’s ever had and is addicted to me and my personalty and my cock for that matter. Still doesn’t… Read more »

Isn’t the opposite true? That sexual escalation – a key tenate of game – will arouse desire?

I’m afraid you don’t understand very much, Jeremy. But, you don’t have all the facts, so how could you. I’m about as far from a gold digger as you could find. But, several men of means have found me and offered to buy my house for me, buy a different house for us, flaunted their money teasing me with what they could buy me, etc. IF things worked out. At a certain point, it actually offended me. Its like a women who wears a low cut shirt but is all “uh uh uh no touchy look only” to a man.… Read more »
