So, your favorite Manosphere Influencer might, in his tedious ignorance, have listed these things you are supposed to match up to, but real women in real in-person situations in which you actually are, are reading thousands of other signals emanating from your body and possessions.
While you are trying to sell her on your list of manosphere points that she is supposed to comply with, she is evaluating in realtime things that aren't on that list at all, and WORSE, your brain is doing the SAME

Worse still, if you fuck up the real signalling with manosphere bullet points, you are inadvertently going to attract a person the rest of your brain is going to hate This Mad Magazine cartoon by Don Martin says it all Signal stupid, win stupid prizes

@screwturn I hadn't heard of most of this, but I think the key factor to this is that the "men" spewing this kind of garbage aren't after relationships, just quantity sex to make themselves feel better about their fragile egos and bizarro sense of toxic masculinity. It sounds exhausting, honestly, but as you mentioned also expresses a worldview where women are little more than fuckable appliances. These guys must be garbage lays.
