Are red pill men actually empowered women?

in Ecency3 days ago (edited)

Women, if you ever encounter a man who seems to socialize "just like a girl", they're probably a red pill man.

My mind is blown

I just realized something: the average red pill guy is just like the average social girl. Think about it - red pill guys spend so much time talking about how socially competitive women manipulate, compete, and play indirect games to get what they want, but in reality, they’re doing the exact same thing. Both groups, whether socially competitive women or red pill men, engage in subtle, passive-aggressive tactics instead of confronting each other directly. It’s like a survival instinct shaped by social pressures.

Socially competitive women are taught to avoid direct confrontation, playing games to maintain social standing. The same is true for red pill men, who believe they're above manipulation but end up using emotionally charged strategies like playing aloof, shaming each other, and negging to feel superior. They criticize women for being manipulative, but really, they just have their own version of it. The behaviors are the same, except they receive the "bro" treatment.

What really struck me, though, is how both groups end up relying on the same emotional tactics. Socially competitive women fake friendships and compete for social status, all while pretending it’s not happening. Red pill men do the same, testing each other’s "alpha" status without saying it directly. In both cases, they try to avoid vulnerability, acting like they’re above emotions or that they have it figured out. But underneath, it’s all about controlling the narrative and gaining social power through indirect methods. Neither group is really as emotionally free as they claim - they’re both playing the same game.

Well, except that most socially competitive women aren't mysandric, while many red pill men are mysoginist.

In the end, it’s all a matter of perspective. Whether it’s socially competitive women trying to secure their place in a social hierarchy or red pill men trying to dominate the social scene, both groups use the same passive tactics to navigate their worlds. Weirdly enough, both act like they’re doing something “better” or “more evolved,” when in reality, they’re just trapped in the same pattern. Both sides get stuck in this loop of social games with their peers, pretending like they’re above others, but ultimately, they’re both just looking for validation in the same ways.

The worst part is how both socially competitive women and red pill men lose out on emotional development. They treat life as a game with unwritten rules they've figured out and imagine everyone and themselves as a peon with the exact same functionality out of the box.

Unironically, both sides struggle with maintaining a long-term relationship, so that's why you encounter so many of these two groups (socially competitive women and red pill men) as single people in the dating market. They see everything as a power struggle.

Well, it is true about red pill man, i have known someone that he really like the girl his classmate in college but because the girl is smarter than him he don't like to court her. yet he keep going to see the girl and go to her boardinghouse each Sunday evening to see her. It turns out the girl develops a feeling for him because of how he treat her but its useless because he has also pride. They separate during on the job training and then the guy got a girlfriend there classmate who used to makes hugs to boys classmates that is a flirt one. The girl cut the friendship because she don't want to talking to him knowing he has a girlfriend.He got mad at her but she nevr change her mind. When the girl got married he then realized that he loves that girl so much and that he wants to take her back from the husband..Pride, its because of that pride that because the girl is smarter than him..it doesn't matter who is the smarter one,what is important is the connection,understanding,acceptance of each other that love that is real.people would never be truely happy if we let pride to overpower.

this is true, I don't understand how he could let pride do that. it sounds a bit sexist too
