Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Another article talking about the shortage of men available for marriage.

Its a very fun and ego boosting read:

https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/youre-single-because-there-arent-enough-men-253

If you are a college educated man you will like it even more.

Basically, women refuse to date down in education. They claim women don't want to date men who are not as smart as they are. This is stupid because I'm college educated and I've met people who never went to college who I would consider smarter than me. I have also met people with Master's degrees who I thought were dumbasses.

Anyway, cheers to male scarcity. It puts more pressure on women to curb their entitlement and be better partners for us. We are the prize!
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Not once did they mention the testosterone draining society we live in. And most of those uneducated men in rural America that work menial jobs (with many OWNING their own businesses) are making more money than the college educated.

Stats are so f*cking stupid. Anyone can twist them however they want. This country is chock full of idiots.

And not one, ONE, mention of women's sexual liberation as a potential negative impact.

Doesn't help we had to put up with this horsesh*t for the past 8 years...




Glad Trump got in. Hopefully, the tide is slowly turning or shifting towards a more masculine positive society and culture here in the US.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Isn't it emasculating for a guy when his wife earns more than he does, and probably always will? That seems like there would always be this unspoken shift of power in the relationship.

Some would argue it is emasculating for a man to get married in the first place.

I find most married men to be more docile and malleable than single men. Something about getting married makes a lot of men soft. Either that, or a lot of tough men are fake and putting on fronts to get women. But they are actually soft and being with a woman over time uncovers their real nature. Hard to say if its one or the other or both.

One thing I know is my relationships always fail because I don't change and adjust to what girls want.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

We are talking on a game site, so I'll judge them on the sexual dynamic.

Obama was the sub to a HB4. Everyone rightly would call him a pvssy, if he came here anonymously.

Trump is the dom to a HB8.

I think it's difficult to argue that the White House hasn't been given a shot of testosterone.
Obama is an AFC and a nerd. Trump beats his wife and everyone knows it. Nothing masculine to see here from either. Moving on now.

Agree on everything and I have to add that in certain couples you can relate more with the woman than the man, its seems like they swap roles.
He starts talking about moral crap while she gets more pragmatic especially in terms of problem solving.

Funny thing however is that men and women get togheter, she hopes he will change but he will not while he hopes she will not change but she will.

I still don't get how you guys on this site call men in the most POWERFUL positions on the planet, AFCs and Beta Males lol. For the simple reason that they are in said POWERFUL position, should disqualify them from an AFC or Beta Male category.

I voted for Obama in 2008 but not in 2012, but I do not in any way believe Obama is some pvssy, AFC, Beta Male, or any other cartoon character label that the anonymous guys from the Manosphere want to create lol.

And Michelle Obama is a HB4? Looks are subjective, Michelle Obama is a representation of Tenacity's HB 7 and higher. She's sexy, black, body is banging, etc.

Obama does what he HAS to do to continue his party's progression. He's a damn liberal, he has to continue selling the women's liberation, women are equal, women are great shyt. That does NOT mean the man allows his woman to walk the fvck over him behind the scenes. I can see and the world can see, that Michelle clearly respects Barack.

This entire notion that there's only ONE WAY to be an Alpha Male (you must fit the cartoonish description/display provided) is just insane. It's honestly why a lot of these guys on this website continue to struggle with women, it's because instead of trying to develop their own personal personality, expand upon that, and build upon that......they are fvcking busy trying to LIVE UP to some cartoonish Alpha Male description that doesn't fit reality, isn't reality, will not allow you to FIT into reality, and makes no fvcking sense at the end of the day.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I am a white man, but if I put my "black man glasses" on, I would say that Michelle, as a younger woman (this needs to be stated as all women degrade), she was definitely bangable. She has a very nice feminine frame (if big) of a small waist-to-hip ratio. That said, she is jockishly tomboyish, so she wins no points as a coquette, and is definitely no style maven like Jacqueline or Melania - or even Nancy, for whatever style that stick lady had. She made physical education & home gardening her 1LOTUS activities of note, and she did this very graciously; she would definitely be the kind of woman a 19th Century pioneer would want to have around.

Some good points.

No one is a complete alpha male or beta male. Some people have more of one quality than the other.

I consider both Obama and Trump to be alpha males, just different types of alpha males with different alpha male qualities. Obama's alpha quality is he is not very emotional and he is always confident in his decisions regardless of what people say. Trump's alpha quality is aggression and a domineering attitude along with always being ready for a fight and being fearless.

Both have beta qualities too. Trump is too reactive. Obama is not aggressive enough.

Agree with this. Obama is slick, no question about it. But he's not tough at all. He wilted around Putin.

Trump seems to be more of a natural alpha who has never had to work on it, because he's always been successful. See his failed marriages. I disagree about him being too reactive though.....things simply bounce right off of him, and they have all throughout the campaign.

Outside the textbook definition as "FIRST," we all define "alpha" shaped by our personal biases and mental schemas.

I define an alpha as an individual who acts strictly on his volition uninhibited by social constructs and, notwithstanding the social abrogation which seemly belies the individual's prerogatives, still wins.

Trump is the winner here.
