The red pills you took growing up

[GambitParticipant 178]

Has anyone here ever had red pill moments growing up? Most of my red pill moments include noticing the double standards my parents place on me and my sister and my mom constantly nagging and blaming my dad.

I used to get into physical fights as a kid even with my sister. When I did, my parents would end up lashing out on me more. I even remember quite a few times my sister spitting in my eyes. If I did that to her, I would’ve been punished for it. But, my sister never did.

My sister has also stolen my parents credit card on quite a few occasions and bought s~~~ without permission. Again, she never got punished for it.

I also remember my mom constantly nagging, complaining, and blaming my dad for everything. Even when me and him were out to get groceries, my mom would constantly call him and basically nag with a shrill voice “are you guys home yet?!” “when will you be back?!” “you guys need to hurry and get back home!”

My dad is also a big f~~~ing mangina. And back before he was married, he was a huge PUA tradcon.

If you took any red pills growing up, what were they?

I had the opposite situation as you. My father was very strong and masculine. Old school born in 1920. My mother was dedicated to him and her children as was my father to her and us. I had a stable home where I was not coddled and always held accountable for my many transgressions.

She was still an AWALT in that she would occasionally let her feelings make decisions as most women do, but she had good values. She was decent with no debt, tattoos, substance abuse problems, not materialistic, and very strong willed.

This was my problem. The woman who raised me was in no way representative of the girls and women I later encountered of my generation. My father died right before I came of age to begin chasing pussy so I had no clue what living hell awaited me or benefit of his experience. I slowly transitioned from blue, purple and red over a 30 year period.

MGTOWs in the 50 year old range +/- 5 years were the vanguard of men who faced the first waves of modern women. We had no clue what we were facing. My sister got married four months after I was born. She was a virgin. Things have changed to say the least.

I will say my father’s strong masculinity was probably the only thing that saved me as a naive blue piller. I would never let a woman control me yet I still believed I’d find a Unicorn. I learned red pill the hard way.

tbh, i never noticed red pills when i was a kid/teen….like many others, i was brainwashed by tv shows, movies, and etc

MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

I’m thankful I was born of a younger generation. It lets me learn from the past mistakes of other men blue pill or otherwise. I admire the men who were born in the 1920s/50s because that was one of the greatest generations of men in modern times. Even the women were so much better back then because they actually had to be held accountable for their actions.

I’ve always wondered since I was a kid as to why people get a house, car, and work 70+ a week just to raise a family in this generation before finding out about this website. Since I could remember, I’ve always wanted to get a small RV/camper and live in it permanently. When I told my parents about this, they seemed fine with it, but they thought it was a phase. When one of my aunt’s found out about it, they just had a really stupid look on their face. It was comparable with a face showing disgust.

I actually learned from those shows. I’ve always wondered why husbands like that pander to their wive’s selfishness but their wives never do anything for them. And when they do, they’re reluctant to do so haha.

Never getting punished for doing something like this. The real world will crucify her. Your parents did not set firm boundaries. She will pay.

I once slowly pilfered $8.50 in quarters from this huge jar of quarters my old man kept. After 2 months he confronted me, I had my allowance taken away for $20 worth at $2 a week and was forced to rake and bag the entire yard for punishment. A tough job for an 8 year old boy I will tell you. I never stole money again. My only income came from hunting glass soda bottles to return for nickels and dimes.

To be open to learning from the mistakes of others is a gift that will serve you well.

Yeah. She’s still learning. The only reason she’s even moved out of my parent’s house is because she gets loads of manginas to take care of her. She’ll learn a thing or two once she hits the wall though.

I was always afraid to take money without asking my parents first because of s~~~ like this. My mom kept a roll of bills in a jar next to her desk. She told us we can take a few dollars here and there every now and then to go get a snack or something across the street.

I always told my parents how much I took. My sister didn’t always tell them how much she took.

That’s definitely a tough job for kids. Especially now a days. My parents would have me raking rocks to one side of the yard to the other (I grew up on a farm).

It’s amazing how men learn responsibility at such a young age and women are essentially little kids in adult bodies because society always coddles them to no end.

What he said.

Women's brains and vagina have one thing in common. There is nothing in there until a man puts something in there.

[Anonymous 11]

After I got finished paying my debt plus penalty, my dad upped my allowance to $2.50 a week. That went WAY further 40 years ago than today.

Boys and girls both need a strong masculine presence as well as a proper role model female presence. Both of these are exceedingly rare these days. Generally, the single fathers I’ve known with custody tend to do a better job at raising them as most men take responsibilities way more seriously than women. I have known a few single mothers who did not run wild though.

There’s nothing sadder than a single mom having an ever changing parade of c~~~s being exposed to her children. Children know exactly what the f~~~ is going on, and it warps them. The conditions a child finds himself in from ages 2 to 4 have a huge impact on him for the rest of his life. Little mangina or gangsta thug factories these single mother homes are.

Frankly, my generation and younger has raised a bunch of little monsters. Those who are lucky enough to have a stable home are much more successful.

The little s~~~ stealing gasoline out of my car and his mother are both products of single moms. I remember his mother tried to throw her pussy on me when she was twelve. I was twenty-one and ran away like a scalded dog.

I had red-pill experiences as far as I can remember; from the time I was 10. One of my primary reasons to adopt the MGTOW lifestyle was because of my childhood experiences with me ‘female’ primary teachers; their biased behaviour towards boys … the ‘all boys were bad’-‘feminized boys are good’ mentality.

I didn’t really care about female privileges of 11-year-old girls… but when these privileges got to the point that I got punished multiple times for mischief I didn’t commit…. that is when my ‘good boy character’ and ‘chivarly’ erased for good. For this, I thank all my primary teachers. They showed their true female colors and saved me from a life of misery and slavery to women.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

[Buller100Participant 2189]

Wow I remember some of this stuff,,, this is some site many many threads I can see how I was sold a pup, lucky no children one divorce no more…

It’s all so obvious when you know, the amount of Manginas I know but many of the younger guys won’t tolerate it, yet some poor guys keep chasing marrying time and time again they are always unhappy….

[Eric LauderParticipant 12043]

This was my main red pill
It’s a legally-binding international convention, signed by 19 European countries – it’ll shape laws and policies in the future, it’s already shaping laws and policies
http://www.coe.int/en/web/conventions/full-list/-/conventions/rms/090000168008482e
Let’s try how powerful is the taste of this GIANT RED PILL:

Recognising that women and girls are exposed to a higher risk of gender-based violence than men;
Recognising that domestic violence affects women disproportionately

For the purpose of this Convention:

a “violence against women” is understood as a violation of human rights and a form of discrimination against women and shall mean all acts of gender-based violence that result in, or are likely to result in, physical, sexual, psychological or economic harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life;
b “domestic violence” shall mean all acts of physical, sexual, psychological or economic violence that occur within the family or domestic unit or between former or current spouses or partners, whether or not the perpetrator shares or has shared the same residence with the victim;
c “gender” shall mean the socially constructed roles, behaviours, activities and attributes that a given society considers appropriate for women and men;
d “gender-based violence against women” shall mean violence that is directed against a woman because she is a woman or that affects women disproportionately;
e “victim” shall mean any natural person who is subject to the conduct specified in points a and b;

GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE IS JUST ONLY AGAINST WOMEN, JUST ONLY WOMEN CAN BE VICTIMS, JUST ONLY MEN CAN BE PERPETRATORS.
THAT INCLUDES EVEN PSYCHOLOGICAL AND ECONOMICAL VIOLENCE: A PSYCHOLOGICALLY ABUSIVE AND MANIPULATIVE WOMAN IS STILL A VICTIM.

I was in my 20s, I lived in Sweden with the HR chief of my company.
She hired me.
She had all the power over me: I lived in her house, she was richer and older than me, she was the HR chief of my company.
She was psychologically abusive.
She wounded me with a knife.
She throwed me out of her house: nights are cold in Malmoe, in November.
She fired me.
The lawyer suggested to not denounce her: “she’s a woman and among your hobbies there is body building”…

Special measures that are necessary to prevent and protect women from gender-based violence shall not be considered discrimination under the terms of this Convention.

Parties shall endeavour to conduct population-based surveys at regular intervals to assess the prevalence of and trends in all forms of violence covered by the scope of this Convention.

SURVEYS WILL COVER JUST ONLY WOMEN VICTIMS, NO ONE WILL CARE TO SURVEY MEN WHO ARE VICTIMS.

Parties shall take, where appropriate, the necessary steps to include teaching material on issues such as equality between women and men, non-stereotyped gender roles, mutual respect, non-violent conflict resolution in interpersonal relationships, gender-based violence against women and the right to personal integrity, adapted to the evolving capacity of learners, in formal curricula and at all levels of education.

IF YOU WISH TO EARN A DEGREE YOU HAVE TO RECOGNISE THAT WOMEN ARE ALWAYS VICTIMS AND MEN ARE ALWAYS PERPETRATORS.

Parties shall take the necessary measures to encourage all members of society, especially men and boys, to contribute actively to preventing all forms of violence covered by the scope of this Convention.

Parties shall encourage the private sector, the information and communication technology sector and the media, with due respect for freedom of expression and their independence, to participate in the elaboration and implementation of policies and to set guidelines and self-regulatory standards to prevent violence against women and to enhance respect for their dignity.

2 Parties shall develop and promote, in co-operation with private sector actors, skills among children, parents and educators on how to deal with the information and communications environment that provides access to degrading content of a sexual or violent nature which might be harmful.

WE’LL TEACH TO BOYS THAT PORNOGRAPHY IS HARMFUL TO WOMEN’S DIGNITY.

The powerful committee controlling the application of the convention is composed by:
ALL women
ALL openly feminists
An overwhelmingly majority of notorious feminazis and/or women with women’s studies degrees.
There are even some lesbian separatists among the committee.

I’m IMMENSELY offended and disgusted by that.

I’m so offended and disgusted by that that I’ll be offended and disgusted for the rest of my life, and very likely even in the next life (if there’s one).

I’m so offended and disgusted by that that sometimes I wonder why I still have sex with women: sometimes I think I’m a weak-willed asshole for giving them orgasms because they do not deserve sexual pleasure from a man.

I’m so offended and disgusted by that that I stopped care about places where women are “really” oppressed, like Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia.
After viewing such convention I STRONGLY suspect that women’s oppression CANNOT exist, NEVER: since women have the power to make MEN signing such convention (in Italy it has been ratified with UNANIMITY, and MEN are 68% of the parliament!!!) then women CANNOT be oppressed, no way – even when they seem oppressed they have A LOT OF deceptive hidden power.

SUPREME LEADER KIM JONG-UN'S FASHION STYLIST - if you want a new look or if you're a very beautiful trans you can call me, phone number +85079255312 / mobile 01921421211. The worth of a man isn't the usefulness that women get from him. Avoiding living with a woman, a man isn't rejecting a lot of sex: he's rejecting sexual starvation. MGTOW IS TACKLING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN COMPLIANCE WITH CONVENTION OF ISTANBUL: http://www.coe.int/en/web/conventions/full-list/-/conventions/rms/090000168008482e --- Article 4, Section 4 "Special measures that are necessary to prevent and protect women from gender-based violence shall not be considered discrimination under the terms of this Convention". WHAT I LEARNT FROM A GENDER STUDIES CLASS IN LUND, SWEDEN: every time feminists accuses men of doing something, odds are likely either them or persons associated with them are doing the exact same thing but a lot worse. WHO I'M RIGHT NOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1okpAj7Fhw Basically my former life have been a conflict between this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yz_RQVkvke4 and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFIMeyTK-sU That's, more or less, all about me.

My greatest red pills I took growing up was going to beauty salons up until 12 or so. I was the fly on the wall. A people wonder why I avoid relations~~~s.

[BeerParticipant 11832]

My mom treated my dad and myself like s~~~ for as long as I could remember. I’m kinda grateful for that now, as I had promised myself I’d never let a woman treat me like that when I was grown up…so I never became a door mat for a woman. I’ve always had enough sense to call them out, or just simply walk away when the bulls~~~ started.

I was still probably a purple piller for most my life though…I still thought I’d find a unicorn…I don’t think I actually came to the conclusion that AWALT until my late 20s though, and that was just after experiencing a few girlfriends and quite a bit of dating first hand. Now I’m at an age where women +/- 5 years of me mostly are post wall skanks who are really showing their age, many of which have kids that aren’t mine, so it just reinforces that my gut was never wrong when I always felt something was off about my past relationships and it wasn’t just me. Finding a decent looking 30 year old with no kids, who is fit, and hasn’t taken a disgusting amount of c~~~ already is simply impossible.

Just for example…I ran into a girl occasionally that used to live a block up from me that’d I’d see in passing quite often around the neighborhood as we’d both be walking our dogs. 7-8 years ago she was a smoking hottie…but every time we stopped to let the dogs sniff each other and say hi for a minute, she always seemed like she thought she was doing me a favor by talking to me, like she was out of my league. She moved years back, but recently I started running into her again as she’s working at a local fast food joint I go to on occasion…she’s a single mom now and looks probably 10 years older than she is from too much sun/smoking/drinking probably making 11 bucks an hour and she saw my work shirt/badge one day when I stopped for some take out on the way home so its obvious I’m making good money…and now she’s super flirty with me and I’m pretty sure she’d reach over the counter and give me a hand job if I wanted her to. Amazing how they change when their looks fade and they realize how many guys are simply not interested in single moms for any more than a pump and dump. It really only takes a few experiences like that for you to understand modern women are not worth it and embrace the red pill.

No she won’t. Women get away with murder! All they have to do is play the vagina card.

[guiParticipant 825]

So many of them. I will try to list some:

– Girls saying what they like in a Guy and then choosing guys that are the complete opposite of what they said.

– Dad making some stupid decisions just so Mom would be pleased and stop annoying him for a while. Those decisions always f~~~ed us up financially by preventing us from buying valuble assets or starting our own bussiness. I don’t hold it against my parents because of all the indocrination their generation suffered but I won’t fall for the same traps.

– The NAWALT bulls~~~ talk everyone nearby always tried to convince me of whenever I thought: Hey, guess what? Maybe I am chasing something that doesn’t exist and just wasting my time. I should focus on doing the things I like to do and making a future for myself.

– Fully realizing that the selfless women portrayed in works of fiction doesn’t exist. The humans in works of fiction are idealized humans after all.

– Being stabbed in the back by many friends and learning that I can never completely trust anyone. Only few friends remain and those earned my trust with their actions. It was by watching friends throw me under buses all the time for pussy that I first learned about the pussy worship that moves society.

– Being born with cleft lip and palate. It’s a condition that has varying degrees of awful effects. I got lucky with only a slight bent over nose and a scar over my lip where the surgeon closed the cleft. I know how worse it could have been but still I faced a lot of prejudice and all that s~~~. That really helped to understand how people work and I rarely talk about it because I refuse to play victim.

– Realizing that all those social movements who claim to fight prejudice but are in fact full of hatred are nothing more than powerless beggars that need other people (and laws) to do their dirty work for them. So the best way to defeat them is by not helping them. There is no real power in whining. The power lies in massing mindless followers.

– Realizing that many of the things taught to me were control mechanisms. Such as:
-The need to marry a woman and have children. I would like to have children but marriage is a very bad deal and men don’t have no rights over their children so it’s not a real choice.

– Religion prohibiting masturbation in order to make us conform to our roles in society and making us weaker to resist making bad choices to please women.

Those are just some of the red pills. I could go on forever.

Pity and contempt are siblings. You only feel pity for those you consider weak.

[MoonlightParticipant 223]

In my early teens, my single mother would coach me on how to date women. She’d say things like how I’m supposed to hold doors open for them, pull the chair out, pay for everything, listen to them talk endlessly, provide transportation, etc. I questioned her about why I have to do everything given women have obtained equality and she said it’s a man’s role to treat women special.

That’s when I started questioning society and by my late teens, I had decided to opt-out of dating all together. I was accused by my family of being a homosexual which doesn’t sit well with their Christian views. I’m not, it’s just I think the whole system of dating and marriage should be 50-50 and that it’s currently broken.
