    So, what did you telling this feminist about your self improvement look like? Did it involve saying anything about the supposed nature of men and/or women?

    Because you’re doing that here, and “self-improvement” has become synonymous with evo-psych quackery like Jordan Peterson’s

      Simply put, I was trying to become socially a good person for friends, to become socially favourable towards girls, since I was a whacko with borderline (not fully) redpill beliefs. I did, despite what this horrible person said to me, because of “toxic masculinity” aka not giving a F about her.

      Does that sound like lobster boy’s 12 rules and other evangelist Christian preaching to you?

        Those are one and the same thing. Women aren’t some other kind of beast that you have to learn about, they’re just people that you need to unlearn some distinctions about if you ever want to connect with them. Same goes for men.

        When I hear another man talk about men being chimps when chasing women, I hear excuses for stereotypical and often violent behavior

          When I say chimp behaviour, it only means unhinged, uncivilised and primitive behaviour with no moral or logical control over self. Basically put, how animals mate in the open. That allows no excuses in my book, the same way autism does not give someone a license to insult or harm others. Usually conservatives can use it as a phrase to cloak stereotypical behaviour, which is not exactly my intent.

        And you failed.

        to become socially favourable towards girls

        And you failed.

        since I was a whacko with borderline (not fully) redpill beliefs

        Those never went away.

        aka not giving a F about her

        Your self-congratulatory apathy toward other people is self-defeating and the reason you continue to fail. congratulations

        Does that sound like lobster boy’s 12 rules and other evangelist Christian preaching to you?

        There is no functional difference. If you came up with that shit all by yourself you’re just working extra hard when that garbage is already there for the taking.

          Thanks for judging me and my alleged personality failures, when you know nothing about me beyond what I type on internet. I am enlightened and will soon reach divinity by your holy life crippling blessings.

            You are voluntarily continuing to sabotage your own well being with your ruinous beliefs. Passive-aggressive sarcastic statements don’t protect you from that and they even fail your own standards of “self improvement” unless sulking and pouting is part of your manliness regimen.

            when you know nothing about me beyond what I type on internet

            This isn’t 2003. The internet’s been around long enough for that 4chan lie about how the nazis on 4chan were only ironic nazis has ceased to be convincing. People more often than not are what they present themselves as on the internet and the mask of anonymity just makes people like you show us what you really are beneath offline social expectations.

            I am enlightened and will soon reach divinity by your holy life crippling blessings.

            Again, your passive-aggressive sarcastic sulking is not doing anything for you here.
