I recently watched 'The Red Pill' documentary (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Red_Pill) and it stated towards the end that the 'red pill' discussed by the MRAs is very different to that of certain other red pills communities; the MRAs wish to change the system, other red pillers want to take advantage of the system and MGTOWs want to escape the system altogether. It's definitely worth a watch.

Applying some MGTOWish principles ain't too bad even if you do actually date chicks over a longer period of time; call me cheap but blowing hundreds of RMB on a dinner, cinema and drinks date is stupid beta behaviour, I can spend less than 50 RMB on a meal (usually cheap Chinese food) or coffee for two and then go back her place (always hers, not mine) for the night simply because I decided that's what we'll be doing (because that's what I want to do) and if she doesn't like it, I can just bang some other chick. There's no need to waste money on impressing women. Like I say, there's some idiotic cucked guys on here that would call me cheap but... I'm banging the girl, I'm not banging them.

Yet in China, I still see and hear lots of clueless newbie foreigners in restaurants trying to impress rural Chinese girls with overpriced Western food (usually when I selfishly indulge in overpriced Western food by myself or with other Westerners) and trying to impress them with stories about everything is bigger, better, richer back home etc; yet you can tell that she doesn't understand half of the English words that come out of his mouth and she doesn't care either because she probably just wants a new house for her parents, a mixed race baby and a divorce settlement in a few years time.

Still, it's easy to see why she will constantly suffer these most boring of dinner dates and even give this newbie teacher an unenthusiastic token handjob with a bored expression on her face at the end; it's totally worth what she can get from him because if you're a rural, uneducated Chinese girl, it's much easier to pull that scam over a few years than earning the same amount of money from doing a real job.
