Simping

This term has become a buzzword in the manosphere, or should I say men's spaces online where discussions about all men's issues are held. In my understanding, a simp is a man who freely gives a woman too much of his attention, time, and resources without properly establishing attraction, then continues to give even when he gets nothing in return.

Men's attention sadly is not worth what it was before because women can freely get attention online from thousands of male orbiters and admirers. This means that a woman getting bored is a thing of the past, all she needs to do is take some photos, post online and hundreds of guys will tumble over themselves to like her pictures and hopefully get her attention.

I am not in any way against women getting attention from men, the point of this article is to highlight the embarrassing behavior men display when they pedestalize a woman and waste their time, energy, and resources giving her way more than she deserves, without creating a connection first.

Some women will be triggered by this article and feel like I am telling men not to show interest, that couldn't be further from the truth. Reclaim your masculinity blog strives to teach men not to be simps, aka men who give away free value to women who are not attracted to them.

Spending money on gifts is another way guys perpetuate this simping behavior. There should be no reason for you as a man to be spending tons of money on a woman you hardly know, or worse, has not shown any interest in you or what you have to offer in an attempt to date her.

Realize that some women have no problem taking what is offered to them without exchanging anything in return, neither can you blame them for that, you have yourself to blame for objectifying women and thinking you can buy their attention.

Being generous is one thing, but giving your value away so that you can get women to like you as if to bribe them is classical simping, mostly if the goal is to sleep with them. Women love a generous man who can treat them, but do you know what they love more? earning that generosity and knowing they're being rewarded, not bought.

The common trend in dating nowadays is buying drinks for women so that you can sleep with them, not only is this a strategy guaranteed to fail, but it's a sure way to only attract women who already are on the lookout for generous men who splash money and attention freely as their strategy but have nothing else to bring to the table.

Reclaim your masculinity by putting a stop to your simping behavior, and start to value yourself enough not to waste your gifts on women. As a man, you do not owe women anything at the beginning of any interaction besides basic human respect, anything after that is to be earned, some exceptions apply like paying the bills when out on a date but excessively spending your money and time on a woman who has not shown interest is simping.
