As someone who was 8-9 during The Early 90s, I'm curious: Who was imparting such knowledge to men back then?
I do not recall any, but I quickly learned what young, feral females were about. I am a late Gen Xer or early millennial, depending on what year the cutoff between the two generations is considered. I think the term Xilennial is fitting considering I am technically a Gen Xer I could not have partaken in Gen X subcultures that I had interest in.
Anyway, I grew up in the latchkey-kid era in one of the boroughs of NYC, a place and era of unsupervised homes. And typical of fatherless homes and air-headed and permissive boomers, there was no shortage of young scumbags and early-sexualized girls around.
So I didn't need gurus around to realize what was so obvious, though I was not introduced to their jargon yet.
1. Monkey branching, rotating polyandry.
2. Alpha widowing.
3. Female masochism.
4. The feral female's lust for violent men, low lives, clowns, and boys from well-heeled families (status).
5. The invisibility of ordinary boys and young men, even if alright looking and put together.
Because I was an actually nice kid, what I noticed was at first confusing. But eventually it set in. Who helped me particularly was a therapist I started seeing at 17 years old to deal with my depression and broken home. This guy confirmed the brutal truth about life to me, including female sexuality. I remember seeing him in '96 and describing a night I stayed over a former friend's house, on which he beat his girlfriend in his room as I tried to get to sleep in another room. It was
not BD SM play or sexual rough-housing as they were screaming and she was crying. I wondered out loud to him why I did could not seem to get female attention while this guy could while being an abuser. He responded, "Oh, it's thrilling," and then rattled off black-pilling instances similar to that one without mentioning other patients' information. He was seriously anti-feminist and politically incorrect.
I will be honest on this board. I recall my seething envy in my teenaged years developed from being unable to socially compete against scumbags, drug dealers, and rich boys. Where I grew up there was enormous socioeconomic diversity in just one school and borough. No one gave a crap about athletic Chads as there were none. And I was not going to out-alpha or "do the work" to out work the people who monopolized the more attractive women (scumbags and rich boys). I also grew up with many girls and young women who were downright nasty. And I don't mean nasty like, "Haha, bro, are you mad they didn't go on dates with you?" I mean, literally mean females, some who admitted to me their older ways in our adulthood.
I did get attraction from some women after high school, and actually fooled around with and dated a woman from my high school who I thought didn't know I existed.
I don't want to come across like some learned elder, but when I meet other people who were red-pilled recently, even some guys closer to my age, I think to myself, "You just learned that (likely from Rollo)?" I also did not mean to derail the thread, but your question sparked some memories. Mods: I'll discontinue this sort of off-topic talk and take it elsewhere if I should.
