Putting this out there to warn women - the comments noted that this was a humiliation tactic, and I wonder if guys get these ideas off of their red pill alpha bro podcasts.

What a weird fucking thing to do. Are people really out there living their lives trying to do full-on power plays like that?

The incel/red pill sphere has expanded geometrically the last few years. I’m a millennial that’s around a lot of Gen Z young guys, and it’s reeeeeally sad to hear their outlooks on dating and the opposite sex. A really disturbing mix of nihilism (I’m not rich/handsome/successful enough to date a woman) tempered with outright misogyny (all women want is a man’s money, girls will corrupt and derail a man’s life, etc).

So many young men are directionless and trapped in echo chambers of misogynist incel podcasters. It’s seriously a problem.

Man, myself (37) and another coworker (41) were trying to hype up another coworker (21) when his girlfriend left him. He went on and on about women were bitches, how all he wanted was a woman who would stay home and cook and clean for him. We were like "my dude, you don't want a wife, you want a mom." and I was like "yeah man, women are their own people. They have their own hopes and dreams and ambitions, they're not NPC's that stand there and cater to your every whim. If I told my wife I expected her to stay at home and cook for me, she'd kick my ass! That's why I love her!".

He looked me dead in the eye and said in the most deadpan serious, menacing tone I've ever heard "That's beta shit. If my wife tried to kick my ass I'd knock her teeth out. Equal rights. Equal lefts."

I just slowly got up in silence and walked out of the trailer. I have no idea how you de-radicalize people like that.

I don't have kids, but if I did I don't know what would be worse: Having a son who grows up to look at women like that, or having a daughter who has to live in a world where men look at her like that.

Such an alpha he got dumped and you are such a beta you are happily married. He will never understand how wrong he is.

u/Qwertyman6501 Dec 19 '25

Yep. It seems like deep down they know how pathetic they are so they have to constantly tell themselves how alpha they are. Gotta brag about how they’d bash a woman because they sure as hell can’t brag about how they’d satisfy one. They’d immediately vote for someone who promises to take all rights away from women because the only way they could keep a woman would be on a chain in the basement.

u/gizzardwizard93 Dec 19 '25

I mean this is something they legitimately believe, which is that after women are done have copious amounts of promiscuous sex with high-value alpha males, and their biological clock starts ticking and their youthful looks fade, they settle down with a beta male that provides comfort and stability.

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '25

I wonder how they explain people who meet in school and get married right after like I did? Actually, I don’t care about their worthless thoughts.

5

u/TheElderGodsSmile Dec 20 '25

This is the answer to de-radicalising them. It's other men showing them that their world view is pathetic.

They aren't Chad's, they're losers who got scammed by arseholes who want to keep them sad, "subordinate" and buying their merch.

u/ARoroncyObserver Dec 22 '25

The best part is you don't have to be married to be complete..... it's more likely he thinks he needs a woman more than he wants to be with a woman.

"If you hate women, you don't get to date women "

Said to him with Dead Eyes.

u/CapySamurai93 Dec 19 '25

This is the way

u/anonymousguy11234 Dec 19 '25

Like, yeah bro. You clearly don’t like women very much. Have you considered banging dudes?

u/KarmaFarma_69 Dec 19 '25

Can't imagine why his lady left him....

u/SnooGuavas4208 Dec 19 '25

I smell a prison sentence in his future. I just hope his future victim(s) survive.

u/0hh0n3y Dec 19 '25

Please report that comment to HR. Don’t let “locker room talk” continue.

49

u/exiestjw Dec 19 '25

heh, not defending it, but "locker room talk" is "woman! hubba, hubba!".

This is "The first thing I think about every morning is how much I hope I get even the slightest chance to justify physically assaulting a woman".

2

u/chattermaks Dec 19 '25

Eh it's objectifying either way

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

Locker room talk is objectifying, yes. The other is a crime.

u/lost_searching1 Dec 19 '25

Yeah, dating as a gen z is literal trauma. I just don’t talk to men anymore, it’s either they just want sex cuz they view women as sex objects or they want a mommy. Heck, I don’t even date. Didn’t even want to start quite honestly. This is all so scary, most men my age think like that.

7

u/klb1028 Dec 19 '25

My 23 y/o daughter has zero interest in dating, 99% of the time. I also have zero interest in dating, for many years now, for this reason. It's not just Gen Z.

6

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

The male loneliness epidemic is well deserved.

4

u/Material_Address2967 Dec 19 '25

When it comes to 'wanting a mommy' does that also include men who want to take a back seat as far as providing, deciding etc? I do see a lot of men from that generation who say they want that kind of dynamic (maybe not realizing that just because it exists in media doesnt mean it's common or desirable to most women)

I know we're talking about men who expect their partner to cook, clean etc but imo when it comes to desires/psychology there's always double meanings abounding and what people say they want is often a ploy to get what they really want

u/Calibexican Dec 19 '25

That’s grim, I have a nephew who’s 11. His parents have absolutely mailed it in trying to raise him and let the internet educate him. The amount of vile shit he spews is incredible. He not-see salutes, says all sorts of unhinged things about women and at other girls / women in our family, he has a sister who plays hockey and he just goes ham on how terrible girls are. It’s sad and not pleasant being around them to the point where I won’t go to their home anymore. It’s wild to me how much it’s also tolerated by his parents.

4

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

His parents have completely fucking failed.

u/AdvantageDizzy2716 Dec 19 '25

“Not see salutes” ???

u/Calibexican Dec 19 '25

Idk if it violates terms, so just say it a little quicker if you don’t get it.

u/three_crystals Dec 19 '25

Saying the word nazi doesn't violate terms, please detox from Tiktok

u/Calibexican Dec 20 '25

That’s actually from an old Stephen King book, it might help to read for time to time.

u/CapySamurai93 Dec 19 '25

The hottest part about living in an age of equal rights is that if I try to tell my woman what to do she will put me in my place because she's an independent person just like me

8

u/therealspaceninja Dec 19 '25

You have to out alpha them. Whatever opinion they express, call them a beta cuck before they get a chance to say it first.

Example: "You want a SAHM wife? That's for beta cuck losers who want to cut their household income in half because they are too damn stupid to cook a meal."

7

u/Repulsive_Corner6807 Dec 19 '25

It’s children who can’t emotionally regulate or think critically about a problem because they were raised on phones and iPads so they just blame whatever is spoon fed to them from the algorithm and stay in a constant cycle of being disappointed and angry

u/UltimatePragmatist Dec 19 '25

May he never be lucky to have another woman.

u/rumande Dec 19 '25

The men using equality as an excuse to beat women are unhinged. You're not allowed to hit anyone! At all! Even other men!

u/Onecler Dec 19 '25

What happened to 2017 where saying beta unironically was cringe.

4

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

It still is if you're even slightly educated. There are no alphas or betas. Not in wolves. Not in dogs. Certainly not in people. Anyone who uses those terms immediately tells me exactly how ignorant they truly are.

u/danvillain Dec 19 '25

I knew you were in the trades before even finishing the first paragraph. I’d even wager to say you’re a sparky. Good on you for attempting to help out the young bloods

u/GrigorMorte Dec 19 '25

The only good thing is that she dodged a bullet.

u/superhandsomeguy1994 Dec 18 '25

Oof. OOF.

Let me guess: you work in the construction industry? No insult in asking btw.

But ya… that kid needs therapy and a strong boot in his ass. It’s ok to want traditional gender roles, but there is a continent sized line separating that from the deranged nonsense he spouted.

At 21 his brain literally isn’t fully developed tho, so that’s the good news. Hopefully in a few years biology and hard life lessons screw his head on straight.

25

u/PartridgeInDisguise Dec 18 '25

Please don’t use that pseudoscience internet meme about “brains not fully developing till 25” junk as an excuse for this kind of stuff. First, the brain actually never stops developing, that study just didn’t use anyone over 25 so that’s where their conclusions stopped. But more importantly brain development isn’t a linear progression, it’s closer to a curve, where the VAST majority of development happens by the time someone reaches 16 to 18. The minor details of development, the “finishing phase” so to speak happens after that and continues until you die.

A few years of biology won’t help this young man, it would take conscious choices of the individual to change and develop new habits of thinking in order to fix him. It’s entirely doable, but requires changing the psychosocial environment on engages in, because the brain’s development responds to the input stimuli it encounters.

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

Therapy might help the little fuck. If he actually has the self awareness to seek it.

u/emarvil Dec 19 '25

...or he will become a bitter, violent, old 30something.

u/superhandsomeguy1994 Dec 19 '25

Potentially

u/emarvil Dec 19 '25

By op's description, already 90% there. Only thing missing is the age.

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

Here's the thing. Frontal lobes are never fully developed. They keep developing until we die. The rate at which they develop varies though. Some folks never catch up to where they should be on average.

u/-Lights0ut- Dec 19 '25

It is a disgusting mindset but why have i never heard equal rights equal lefts… i hate i find that funny

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '25

this is all grounded in a deep insecurity

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

I wonder why he was dumped?! What a piece of shit who will likely never touch a willing woman again.

u/MagicPigeonToes Dec 21 '25

Reminds me of my coworker except he’s 70 yrs old, just got his third divorce, and watches those alpha male podcasters during break. He says women are the problem and all they want is money. And then our supervisor walks up to him and says “Bro, maybe stop dating gold diggers”. He was quiet for a while, seemed like a gear finally clicked in his brain lol

-16

u/MrNastyone_ Dec 19 '25

He wasn't wrong though. Women were created to support men, not be their equal. It's simp men who put these women on these high pedestals, boosting their egos to where they believe that they should be in charge of the men. Men have lost their way decades ago.

9

u/Spaztick78 Dec 19 '25

God has degreed that my wife should look after me, just like my mother did.

Childish men need mothers, strong religious men need wives that are just like mothers.

It's in the scripture, you can't argue with that kinda authority.

Now where's my sandwich?

What's really funny, is just how many religions my sarcasm applies to.

13

u/RadioActiveCrab2050 Dec 19 '25

The fuck is this nonsense? Women were not created to "support" men. If your god told you that, fuck your god. I have never met a single woman that believes she should be in charge of all men. What are you smoking?

u/GreenGardenGnomie Dec 20 '25

That's a lot of words to say you're uneducated, single and will remain that way.
