The Void Pill represents a darker reality that the Red Pill and Black Pill only partially address. Each of these existing philosophies is rooted in observed realities that show only half the picture, and people often fall prey to one over the other because they crave simple explanations.
In practice looks are extremely important and in many ways they are the core as the Blackpill claims. On the other hand it is rare for a woman to love a man at first sight solely because of his biology or how he looks. As the Redpill rightly claims attraction to the male appearance is usually context dependent. A man must prove his value through deeds, status, success, and behavior. These are external markers that indirectly hint at his personality. This is the bridge that can even unite the Bluepill and Redpill.
But what sounds romantic as if a woman is charmed by personality is far from the truth. Attraction to personality is just a nice way of saying you are attractive as long as you are a useful tool and your character remains strong. But men are not superheroes and they can show signs of weakness or anxiety or a drop in status. These moments of failure can quickly kill their sex appeal and can end the relationship.
This is where the Redpill captures the truth better. A woman loves a man for his service and utility to her rather than for who he is. Men are Doers.
But where does the Redpill miss the Blackpill truth? They dont stop to realize that if female attraction to men is so fragile and a man is required to do all the effort it isnt because looks dont matter. It is because if you are a man you look like a man and therefore you are at an aesthetic disadvantage compared to the neotenic or feminine ideal. It is like saying wings or venom dont matter to an ape. They matter but if you are an ape you arent a snake or a bird anyway. Nature gave you other tools to survive.
The Blackpill correctly diagnosed that if a man is exceptionally handsome women will flock to him without games or conditions knowing nothing of his personality. But the emphasis is on rare and extreme cases. It is like finding a gorilla with wings. Ironically these men often look more feminine like Pretty Boys. Even then many in the Looksmaxxing community admit that even PSL Gods can lose their appeal the moment they show weakness or lack of confidence or low status.
This is because no matter how good you look relative to other men you are still a man.The most beautiful gorilla is still ugly compared to the ugliest cat with a neotenic look. Neotenic or feminine beauty is a far more valuable currency than male beauty. One Euro is worth many Shillings.
The Blackpill was right that if a man is too ugly or old or short his personality and status wont help. But they were wrong to conclude that a woman is magnetized by a handsome man exactly like a man is magnetized by a beautiful woman. An ugly male appearance is more of a deal-breaker than a handsome appearance is a magnet. Unless you are in that 0.1 percent of rarity women simply love men much less than men love women.
Both philosophies look at the same data: that 90 percent of men on dating apps are found unattractive by most women, but reach different conclusions. The Redpill calls it hypergamy and the Blackpill calls it looks. In reality this is living proof that neotenic beauty is far superior to the male look. Even the extreme MGTOW claim that women dont truly love men has a grain of truth because they love men far less than men love women.
Take Height for example. The Redpill calls it hypergamy and the Blackpill calls it proof that looks are everything. Both are wrong. If male beauty had standalone value then 2 inches of bone wouldnt turn a handsome man from attractive to invisible. Men who are truly hypnotized by beauty barely care about a womans height. This proves women are falling in love with a utility or a bodyguard and not a breathtaking beauty.
I dont entirely dismiss Hypergamy and there is a grain of truth there too. It is true that a woman statistically marries a man who is slightly above her in status or height. But this is because men must compensate for their clumsy and anti-neotenic biological inferiority through status and money. This is the cruel way nature forces the less beautiful creatures like men to pay a much higher debt to equal the value of the more beautiful creatures like women.
The Blackpill is trapped in individualism about how handsome you are compared to other men. But the reality is collective. By being a man you are almost always at an aesthetic disadvantage compared to the neotenic ideal of an average woman. Masculinity and Beauty are an oxymoron. You are the most beautiful gorilla in the safari but you are still a gorilla and ugly compared to an average cat.
This brings us to the trap where the Blue and Red and Black pills all fail together. They assume sexual dimorphism means women are attracted to male traits the same way men are attracted to female traits. But attraction to the male look is context dependent. It is the synergy between the look and the Doer that creates attraction.
Orientation is different from beauty. Even straight women admit that women are objectively more beautiful than men. When you add the fact that many women have some level of attraction to other women it means an average woman can get sex from another woman more easily than most men can get sex at all.
I am closest to the extreme MGTOW view that men are Disposable. Misandry is biological. Humanity loves the woman more and we save women and children first. Even sexual violence which is often used as proof of misogyny is actually a pathological side effect of the desire for the neotenic look. In all other forms of violence like murder men are the overwhelming majority of victims.
The Redpill and MGTOW provide a psycho-evolutionary explanation for this claiming that since women give birth they are more important for reproduction. This might explain why this trait exists in humans but it doesnt explain the psychological mechanism in the human mind that causes this behavior. This is where the Blackpill philosophy fits in. It is because of how you look. Or more precisely it is because you look like a man that creates this indifference or hostility toward you. The repulsion from the rugged and clumsy male appearance is what leads to the hatred and rejection of men.
The Blackpill understood that people judge you by looks but they failed to see that it is not just about your rank among men. It is about your lack of universal neotenic beauty. Even if a handsome man is far better off than other men and has an easier life his situation is still not as favorable as that of a woman. Her neoteny makes her an aristocrat by birth while he remains a slave-class by nature.
They are both wrong.
