I think many people miss the first step of "being yourself" which is "find out who you really are." It's contradictory to accept your values from someone else. Your true values and interests can only come from within yourself.
I completely agree. Also, this may just be from my personal experience, but living on your own (no parents, no roommates) is a huge developmental point that I feel like a lot of people in the younger generations missed out on. When you’re forced to provide for yourself and you’re stuck with your own thoughts the majority of the time, you do a lot of soul-searching and self-discovery that can really help you figure out who you are and what you want in life. If you spend 24/7 immersed in what other people want and what other people are doing, you’ll never have time to focus inward. Social media hasn’t helped with that, either.
I actually looked that up, and it seems like a lot of instances I found detailed guys who were products of single mothers or fathers who never taught them proper hygiene. With rising divorce rates and single parent households becoming more commonplace, I would wager that at least partly explains why it’s appearing more in the younger generations. Although yes, there are always going to be lazy, unhygienic people in every generation.
You catch a vibe off of them that's akin to incels-- like everything they learned from relationships is from movies and TV, and they squirrel themselves away into this obsessive headspace.
child and teen me relates to this though scrotes we're worse during that time so I was just alone for the entirety till adulthood and met a few cool women to be friends with.
I never really understood this one. Why am I supposed to want to compete with my own daughter for hotness points when they’re literally 18-35 years your junior? I can see why moids like it cause it pits women against one another but I don’t see how it benefits a woman or her offspring to play into this.
I…don’t think any of those points are goals or good things. Do you? They’re all based in insecurity and ridiculous self-centering.
"hahaha I am such a money-wasting retard by having basic hygiene and caring about my appearance, I wish I was nasty and stinky wearing the same shirt for several weeks instead teehee, so superior!"
there was that other woman who argued with her in the thread and immediately all the moids were CATFIGHT CATFIGHT. They were happy to see two women "fight", doesn't matter if one of them posted all those ebin memes. At the end of the day she's still just a woman they delight in seeing be attacked.
My reply killed itself. But it was something along the lines of that was me (or I was one of them). That was a weird exchange. I made an “and also working mothers” comment to something that poster said about “trad” mothers, literally not even criticizing whatever is their fantasy lifestyle. That poster went awf, 0-60 in a single comment, playing victim, soap boxing, making up things never said, demanding repeatedly that I must screenshot something they said in the same thread (tf?), and pulled out the old “she’s fat and can’t get a man” (sure, honey). Unhinged. I don’t stick with crazy, so I stopped replying and 2 days later discovered I had a week’s thread ban
even though I dindu 
they got the updoots but going "haha two women arguing" says it allMy reply killed itself. But it was something along the lines of that was me (or I was one of them). That was a weird exchange.

(Ok, derailing, I guess, but only one of us got a timeout, lol.) *also I joked about the “pickme” thing because…that was accurate.
And yeah, the peanut gallery laughed about the “catfight,” but though I don’t know, I’d bet that commenter got the updoots- I sure didn’t
You’d be surprised what at the lengths people will go for just the slightest bit of attention. A good amount of men in that thread have no idea what they actually want from women, and will hate the career woman and the SAHM for different reasons. Also, they have immense disdain for single mothers, but not enough shaming of deadbeat dads. There are some occasionally decent posts in there, but a good amount is whiny and melodramatic. Being a pick me is just a losing scenario in all of this because it doesn’t matter if you’re “one of the good ones,” many just see women as inherently inferior.
This one has more of a yeast scent to it.
I do the latter, what does that mean?
And when the daughter has no interest in conforming to gender stereotypes and expected female beauty regiments and standards, these women still get mad and call their daughters dykes and shit.
posters in here have expressed empathy and understanding toward NLOG/Pickmes with many of them admitting they had phases like that themselves. Men are incapable of similar things
