Red Pill Theorist: Women are like children. Except you can have sex with them.

This Morpheus dude may have a point.
This Morpheus dude may have a point.

Put on your thinking caps today, because we are going to wade into the highly rarefied world of Red Pill Theory. Our Guest Lecturer today is a totally ALPHA DOG Red Pill Redditor by the name of GayLubeOil — don’t worry, fellas, he’s straight! — who has some important insights for us all on the nature of women.

Namely, that women are basically just overgrown children. Who give blow jobs.

Let’s let him explain, in a post that’s now Number One With A Sticky in the Red Pill Subreddit.

Treating Women Like Children (self.TheRedPill) submitted 8 hours ago by Endorsed ContributorGayLubeOil - stickied post One of the key tenants of Red Pill is that women act like children. There are many reasons for this. Women are not held accountable for their actions growing up, so they are completely new to the concept of accountability. If a woman sucks a dick, she tells a realy long story about how she was put in a dick sucking situation. Women don't realy believe in their own agency. That's why they often believe in cosmic forces like fate and patriarchy, because nothing they ever do is their fault. If women don't take responsibility for their actions, someone else has to. That's why we have to treat women like children. Obviously, some woman is going to read this have a cascade of feels and then deal with said feels in the most immature way possible.  While Red Pill theory has definitely harsh view of women, the practical application isn't as anti-social as our detractors believe.  One of the things that children suck at, is regulating their internal state. They're too little to know if their hungry, sleepy or if they need to go for a walk. When a child throws a tantrum its often not about the toy, there is often some underlying issue you need to take care of.  As stupid as its sounds you can completely avoid a lot of arguments by ignoring everything she says and going for the underlying problem. I cant believe you never told me that you X! Aww is she hungry. She gets this way when shes hungry. Then just feed her some Greek yogurt or something, and the problem will go away. Or just take her for a walk around the block, because shes just anxious from being at work the entire day.  Red Pill holds that male leadership is the cornerstone of a good relationship. Sometimes that means treating her like a child.

After reading all of that, you may have a few questions. Obviously, the most important question is: why Greek Yogurt? Well, in addition to being very popular with the ladies, it is apparently quite high in iron. Let’s let Professor LubeOil explain why that’s so crucial:

GayLubeOil[S] 44 points 7 hours ago* The reason I used Greek Yogurt as an example is that its high in Iron. A surprising number of women are anemic which means they bruise easily. Its obviusly not your fault that she cant get enough nutrients into her body. However You don't want to be seen walking around with a bruised woman. Which is why GayLubeOil recommends feeding your anemic woman Greek Yogurt mixed with pomegranate so you don't look like an abusive asshole. If you are an abusive asshole yogurt and pomegranate will not fix or prevent hemotoma. Sorry abusive assholes.  permalinkparentgive gold [–]Knoxhon_ 8 points 5 hours ago Sorry abusive assholes.  lmfao
Well, with that critical issue taken care of in a totally not creepy or red-flaggy kind of way, let’s move on to some of the serious discussion Professsor LubeOil’s thesis inspired in the Red Pill Subreddit.

Ah, who am I kidding? They mainly just posted comments about how totally right he was and how women totally are a bunch of overgrown children. But saying women are children is totes not misogyny!

Usherai 39 points 7 hours ago For all the accusations of misogyny thrown at TRP, I don't think most guys, even here, go far enough. Women are exactly like children in that without strong male leadership they will ruin themselves by being slaves to their emotions and short-sightedness. Their inability to take responsibility for themselves means that men need to be the ones directing, influencing, and manipulating their emotions into beneficial behaviors and pursuits.  This means that the mindset RP men should have in their relationships with women is one of complete and utter superiority. Your analysis and suggestions are pretty spot on.
And, heck, even if a dude maybe is a teensy bit of a misogynist, what’s the big deal, so long as it convinces him to treat his women properly — that is, like you would treat special needs children.

GayLubeOil[S] 41 points 7 hours ago Even if someone is a blatant misogynist and thinks women are completely inferior to men, that doesn't necessarily translate into him treating women poorly. Lets say you had a special needs child . The kids obviously intellectually inferior, to you and his peers. You knowing this doesn't make you an asshole. Knowing this and admitting this is the first step in being a good parent for this kid. Yea maybe you have to wipe his mouth after he eats or pick up after him a bit more. But pretending that he is a totally normal kid is going to make you a shittier parent than admitting the truth. That's why you should do what men have done for most of human history:treat women like women instead of pretending that they are men with breasts.  permalinkparentgive gold [–]Knoxhon_ 14 points 5 hours ago misogyny isn't about superior/inferior. it's about a hatred of women as a group. this is a common misconception.  permalinkparentgive gold [–]Endorsed ContributorDemonspawn 13 points 4 hours ago But so much of the population has equality disease: thinking someone isn't equal must be coming from hate... because they are equal, don'tchaknow!

Damn those feminazis and their “equality!” Why, it’s almost un-American!

Roberta, if you ever go back on reddit, try /r/againstmensrights. Sort of like here, in that it filters the hate-filled/misogynistic crap through a heavy layer of mockery.

LMFAO…….overgrown man children attempting to turn the tables ……it’s not a huge population of gaming women out there, it’s largely overgrown boys…….then you have the NFL, NBA, FIFA…….tons of games where overgrown boys throw huge tantrums when their teams don’t win. The overwhelming population of men who can’t even do their own laundry or pick up after themselves, basically marrying another mother to cook and clean and raise kids while they watch games at the bar and cheat on their wives with younger women…….yeah I totally get it, this guy is full of shit!!

So are you saying he is not right? I have seen very few women take responsabillity for their own actions. It is always someone else’s fault or it just happened, it was fate. it was never their decisions. And the state supports this.About being mysoginistic apparently every unpleasent truth about women is mysoginistic. And yes women lack a lot of basic minerals like iron because they do not eat healthy instead base their diets on what they read in fashion magazines and such.

@cyp
No, “unpleasent truths” are not misogynistic.

What is misogynistic is treating women as a single entity, rather than individuals.

What is misogynistic is coming into a feminist space to mansplain to us that we never take responsibility for ourselves, without giving actual evidence (with citations) of this trend.

What is misogynistic is coming here to tell women that we are unhealthy and don’t know how to take care of ourselves. I know much more about my diet and what my body needs than a stranger on the internet does, thank you very much.

Basically, if you want to see what a misogynist looks like, check the mirror.

“I have seen very few women take responsabillity for their own actions” ≠ “very few women take responsibility for their own actions.”

One is your perception of the behavior of a small, self-selected subset of “women,” which is the group of women who are either willing or somehow forced to spend time with a misogynist asshole. The other is a universal statement about the behavior of ~3.7 billion people.

Women in your presence may very well not be willing to engage with you in an honest way. They might be psychologically immature. They might also be reflexively trying to defend themselves from misogynist, assholish criticism from you by denying they did anything wrong.

It may also be the case that you are ascribing responsibility onto them for things that are beyond their control. It’s pretty common for misogynists like yourself to, for instance, blame women when bad things happen to them. “Why were you dressed like that? Why did you go there? Why were you exercising your right to behave like an adult human being in the world, rather than acting like a gazelle on the savanna near a lion pride?” A woman who knows she did nothing wrong by going to a bar with some friends is going to push back onto you trying to assert that she should lock herself up in a tower if she doesn’t want drunk horny guys violating her boundaries.

I mean, there are lots of reasons why your perception might be incorrect, and even if it is correct, there is no reasonable way to extrapolate your personal experience to the universe of all women.

In short, you’re an idiot.

cyp, while it’s true that some women do eat in a way that’s more influenced by fashion than by dietary medicine, the same is true of a lot of men: look at any weightlifting forum for a good example of this. It’s not a gendered thing.

As for women taking responsibility for their own actions: again, I’ve seen a lot of men refuse to take responsibility for their actions, and a lot of women be willing to shoulder their burdens.

The point you’re making, I think, could be stated as being that people behave irrationally. Which is entirely true and I will lament it.

I have to say that I like the reference to iron in particular, without any apparent thought going into why iron in particular might be a problematic mineral for women.

lot of hate comments… how fun! Let’s start with the beginning. there are a number of reasons why I say most women do not take responsability for their actions:
1. drinking and then blaming their behaviour in that state on someone else
2. getting into poisoneus relationship and not wanting to understand they chose this and they need to change the cause for their choice
3. things that just break by themselves without any human action being done to them

@Policy of Madness I already stated that is the women I met not the entire 3.7 billion. And no I am not assigning responsability for something not under their control.

@ej apparently yours was the only non-hateful comment and I agree with what you said. My point about women lacking in certain minerals including iron comes from the fact that a lot of women tend to avoid red meat and other products with high callory content. Most of those minerals come from meat and dairy products and can be acquired very hard from vegetables.You are completely correct that there are men that cannot take

@Pandapool:
I’m guessing that it’s a reference to vegetarianism being more common among women, and a diet over-heavy in meat being seen as being more “manly.” And really, that tells its own story, doesn’t it.

@cyp:
Please understand that I agree with PoM and M. I’m not your token Good Feminist; whatever they say to you goes for me as well.

However, I am a scientist, and as a scientist I must call you up on your claims which are based on hearsay, supposition and “everybody knows” rather than on data. Peer reviewed study or GTFO, cyp.

@EJ ok call me up on my claims! So far you have not. And it is not hearsay more than what you said is hearsay.It is just my experience and I already mentioned that. You cannot disprove my life experience since it is mine.
1. I was not refering at vegetariasm especially, but also diets that are close it. i never said a diet over heavy in meat is more manly, just that meat is a necessary aliment and that women are the ones that remove it from their diet more often.
2. never thought you as a good feminist as I am not so naive to believe those exist. But I considered you as a person that can talk reasonable about facts instead of just splurring insults as your friends that you are defending.

4. Also you mentioned that there are also men that do not take responsability for their actions (as always feminism has taken the worse attributes in men and seen them as qualities) but the difference is the law does not protect men when they do this. They do protect women a whole lot though. If you want equality let it be complete!

As well as lacking citations, your “reasons” are too vague to meaningfully discuss – as if you’re reluctant to place your goalposts. For example:

drinking and then blaming their behaviour in that state on someone else

Could you give an example of the sort of behaviour you’re talking about?

@cyp:

3. Congratulations, you managed to paste a link. That article points out alternative ways to get each of these nutrients, so it contradicts your own claim that meat is “necessary”.

Furthermore, that article is about vegetarians, not about women. Do you have any sources that back up your argument?

4. What laws are you talking about? In which country/ies have these been implemented?

@ Newt

He means rape, of course! Because everyone knows if a women are responsible for their own rapes, especially if they were drunk at the time. And the law “protects” them from the consequences of the poor choice to drink while female own by putting them through hell and failing to prosecute or convict, or ridiculously light sentences.

In misogyny speak, “women don’t take responsibility for their actions” = “women should take responsibility for men’s actions.”

That’s what that means. Every time.

Well, if we’re going to be reasonable, then I’d have thought that you would have avoided insulting me either. However, this was evidently fated to not be the case. I’d disappointed.

WWTH, Mola and Newt make some excellent points there, particularly Newt. I await your response to her rebuttal with great interest.

@Policy of Madness I already stated that is the women I met not the entire 3.7 billion.

You agreed with a universal statement, that women act like children and don’t take responsibility for their actions. Your response was “So are you saying he is not right?” You decided to support this with your anecdata. Are you trying to be cute now and claim you don’t know how language works? In other words, are you trying to avoid taking responsibility for an action you made, in typing out your unconditional support of a universal statement?
