Need honest answer: have you changed your behavior/habits since involving yourself in the manosphere?

[Xenom0rph]

Fellas, I'm really interested in hearing honest answers and I'd appreciate as much feedback as possible.

To clarify my question:

Have you been able to drop your SIMPing behavior ever since you became a part of the manosphere?
Have you taken these lessons to heart and stopped placing women on a pedastal?
Have you learned to disregard what women say and instead pay attention to their actions?

I'm interested in finding out if guys are taking the lessons of the manosphere to heart. I'm interested in finding out if the pendulum is shifting away from SIMPing behavior and back towards men having self-respect, dignity and knowing when to just walk away from toxic women.

I had hoped that the pendulum had shifted back in favor of men because:
1) Men have finally learned how to change their ways
or
2) The high cost of living have made it economically impossible for men to SIMP

In my personal life, I haven't seen much change. I held out hope that high living costs would essentially force men to change their behavior, but it seems men are willing to go into debt just to continue SIMPing....

EDIT: Sosuave has been around for years. Manosphere channels are all over youtube. Every male-focused youtube channel talks about the imbalance in dating, the epidemic of male loneliness, the disadvantage that men face in western society - with all this content available and being consumed by so many guys, one would think that the pendulum would have shifted by now... but it hasn't, not even a little bit...

Please, I would appreciate honest answers.

For me it did.

I was with a high earning girl, despite me earning 6 figures, she still made 3x what I do easily.

Anyway the relationship slowly turned me into being her therapist, I'd listen to her pathetic woes about work all night.

Then she **** blocked me with her dog.


Before red pill "knowledge", I would have doubled down in the hopes of getting some action. Instead I just pretended we were just starting to see each other, and quickly learnt she was not into that anymore.

So yes, it saved me.

Kevin Samuels, Andrew Tate, Alpha Male Strategies, Alexander Grace, LFA, Sandman, etc....

The list of manosphere youtubers is huge. So many guys watch this content, so naturally we'd assume that by now men would have altered their behavior and we'd see a shift....

..but no, that's not the case, the situation for men today is a little bit worse than it was 5 years ago. Because now, even women are trying to get into the manosphere - not because they actually care about the plight of men, but because they're trying to capitalize on the loneliness of men through viewership on youtube or selling coaching services....

I honestly don't see any positive change.

I find myself sucking less **** these days, so maybe it works.

The manosphere has been around for decades. These ideologies have not changed since it was introduced, or very marginally. The world, and dating scene, has changed since then and it's always evolving. With new technology, discoveries, social causes, you have to adapt and be able to use that to your advantage in the dating market.

Regardless of rising cost of living, SIMPs will SIMP. It's the easy way, it's a habit, a lifestyle. I was lucky to not get sucked into that degenerative cesspool, but I can understand why some men do it and continue to do so. I don't judge, the more play I get from these men doing what they do.

I was hardcore red-pill more than a decade ago, I've accepted it. It's like riding a bike, it can be challenging to accept the concepts at first. Once you do, it's innate - you don't have to go back and read up or learn it. I think going down that spiral day in and day out might do more harm than good. More negativity than positivity, that's not how I choose to live my life.

The men who get it, get it.

I never simped to start with. I have always been of the opinion that if women want equality, then that's what they're going to get. And equality means paying their fair share instead of living by some double standard.

Have I changed my behavior? Yes. I went thru a red pill rage and somewhat of a black pill phase before I realized that all that was unnecessary and that most women are damaged and not worth any kind of effort.

The vast majority of people are incapable of change because they think that all their problems are due to others and not their own failings. This is a societal problem, and it's only getting worse with all the woke socialist crap that most people consume.

People have to be willing to go out and find the truth before they will accept the truth, and 95% of people will never even make it that far.

Have you been able to drop your SIMPing behavior ever since you became a part of the manosphere?

Yes. I don't follow random hotties on Instagram. I don't even follow most of the top tier girls who were my college classmates. Granted, the top tier women of 2001-2005 in college are now pushing 40 and not top tier anymore but some still look pretty decent for their ages.

Have you taken these lessons to heart and stopped placing women on a pedastal?

I could still improve here.

Have you learned to disregard what women say and instead pay attention to their actions?

I was never bad about this. A few days ago, even my mom sent me some blue pill text about being a nice guy.

I would like to be a bigger douchebag.

Well, I've gotten thicker skin for sure.....more like a callus...

I've also learned that the best way to deal with disrespect is the immediate and entire removal of attention from people who don't respect you. Not catty or clever comebacks, total and utter ignoring of their presence.

 

[CoandaEffect]

Changed me for sure. After getting burnt bad, I discovered the manosphere and RP teaching. I no longer see women or relationships the same. It has made a huge impact in how I approach women and dating. Not one of them have taken advantage of me or hurt me since I went RP, and I get more sex now.

 

[SW15]

I also learned the following rule from the Manosphere....

No dinner dates in restaurants prior to sex.

Good rule that I have applied.

[Pierce Manhammer]

Yes. Once I recognized the patterns described everything changed. It cannot be unseen.
