Summary:
Lately I’ve seen a lot of comments on TRP bemoaning the fact that most of TRP is full of betas, and that no matter how hard you climb sometimes you just can’t make it to the top. I’m writing to explain why this line of thinking is complete bullshit.
Body:
Let’s start with a simple statistical analysis. First of all, I’m going to assume that an Alpha male is defined as the top 20% SMV, a standard measure around here.
While I know this is blatantly untrue, let’s just assume that every subscriber of TRP is an adult male living in the United States. Currently, the total population of adult men in the United States is 119 million. So if we take 20% of 119 million, we are left with 23,800,000 males in the top 20%, or roughly 24 million Alphas.
So right now there are about 144,000 subscribers to TRP, (keep in mind that nowhere near all of these subscribers are from the U.S.) Since TRP obviously doesn’t have a monopoly on RP truths, I’ll round up to about 300,000 men within the entire Manosphere.
So, we take 300,000 out of 24 million, and we are left with 1.25%. This means that the population of roughly all of the men in the Manosphere worldwide only makes up 1.25% of the entire U.S. population of adult men.
So why do these numbers matter? Well quite obviously, knowing RP truths gives any man a distinct increase in potential maximum SMV. By this logic, a man in the top 20% of men who fully understands RP truths, has a distinct advantage over men who still buy into the Blue Pill fantasy, regardless of how muscular or wealthy they are. A man who actively understands the psychology behind concepts such as Game and Frame has the ability to rise much farther in the SMP.
Therefore, the idea that TRP must always be full of betas or even ‘omegas’, is absolutely ridiculous. There is more than enough room at the top for all of us here in the Manosphere.
Lessons Learned:
TRP is not a mutually exclusive “race to the top,” everyone in the Manosphere can become an Alpha with plenty of room to spare.
Stop artificially limited yourself with foolish excuses. There is plenty of room for all of us to become Alphas, and having conscious understanding of RP truths grants you a distinct advantage in the SMP.
There’s no need to act like we are competing with each other here on TRP. We are all here to increase our SMV, let’s start acting like it.
