This is a genuine question, as every time I have an argument about this with someone they bring a point so utterly stupid that it leaves me stumped…

    Red pill mentality isn’t stupid. If it was, you’d be able to come up with your own counterarguments rather than relying on asking random people on the web.

    Now while the red pill mentality does make a lot of valid points, there are some extremists out there that take it too far and are simply woman-haters. And those people are stuck in their ways and not worth arguing with.

      The thing is, I have a lot of valid counter-arguments, the problem is that every time I state one, the “red pills” have such a stupid comeback that I just can’t say anything back… Like I’ve heard things with mind-blowing levels of idiocy. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against self improvement, far from it. I just don’t think that dropping all your hobbies, interests and personality to be “big muscle guy who defends Andrew Tates at all cost” is “self improvement”.

      You don’t need red pill to tell you to work on being confident and to be up front with your intentions with someone.

      You don’t need that to be a man. Masculinity is changing, and truly manly men accept and adapt to change; not cower from or reject it. You’ll make it through, but if you want anyone to enjoy spending time with you, you gotta drop the act and find your true self, and realize that while improvements are always welcomed, that you are enough as you are.
