Women who play by the “rules” of misogyny and patriarchy don’t win.
Taking a step back and looking at public online interactions at first is super confusing. These men loudly proclaim what they want and expect from women but let’s look at what happens when it appears a woman is giving everything they demand.
A while ago there was a woman named Pearl who appeared on all these red pill misogynistic podcasts agreeing with everything these men said, her misogyny wasn’t internalised, it was loud! Yet none of these men considered her for a partnership (I don’t want to say romantic relationship because I don’t think they are capable).
And here’s why, they want to destroy powerful women. It’s bordering on a kink for them. They don’t want a submissive woman, they want to take a strong woman and break her down.
Pearl played the role perfectly. She echoed their talking points, laughed at their cruelty, threw other women under the bus — and still, they refused to embrace her. Why? Because these men don’t actually want the compliant woman they describe. What they want is the performance of submission, from someone who once had power, autonomy, or something to lose.
They aren’t seeking women who are docile — they are seeking women they can make docile.
That’s why it never matters how agreeable, beautiful, or “trad” a woman tries to be. These rules aren’t designed for women to win. They’re designed to make us chase approval that will never come — to turn our energy inward, competing with each other, shrinking ourselves, and playing nice while they laugh at the game they rigged.
The moment we stop trying to win their approval and start building solidarity instead? That’s when we become dangerous — and that’s exactly why they work so hard to keep us divided
