Men Cannot Say What Benefits They Have for Women
The best they can come up with? Protecting women from lousy, creepy guys
Have you heard of the “Female Dating Strategy” (FDS) subreddit and community? It’s a controversial group. Some males feel it is a “hate group.”
Why? Because FDS provides concrete guidelines for what women should look for in men they date and how they should improve themselves to become high-value women (HVW). FDS defines qualities of high-value men (HVM) and also defines qualities or their lack that are found in low-value men (LVM) and no-value men (NVM).
This subreddit is all-female and it often is “locked down” or closed to non-members.
The reason?
Men constantly visit it and try to harass, berate, insult, and attack the group of women who are — fundamentally — just working to better themselves and improve their lives in concrete, specific, measurable terms. Some men are unhinged by its very existence and cannot stand the fact that women are not only talking to each other about their relationships with men, but are taking action to improve their emotional, physical, economic, and social circumstances.
