Power duck, a reformed loser.
Hello everyone.
Im a 19 year old college student, currently studying a math degree and living in Spain.
- ABOUT MY PAST:
Ive been the embodyment of the stereotypical loser since i got into highschool. Socially awkward, socially unskilled, I was picked on by bullies, disrespected by everyone, and the list goes on. A year ago I got tired of the mocking and the self hatred and after coming across the red-pill content I started to put my shit together. I got a gym membership, started becoming more attractive, and developed my social skills. I was seeing some changes, people respecting me a little more, some women now flirting with me.... However I still was picked on by college classmates, most women ignored me and the red-pill had given me new insecurities.
Well that lasted till I discovered this website half a year ago. I started learning power dynamics, and putting my new learnt knowledge to use (with good results)Â realised that I wasnt dumb (something I believed pretty much my whole life as an explanation for being constantly disrespect) but rather lacked power awareness, and saw how the red-pill is nothing but bs. So after reading lots of articles and forum posts i got better at power dynamics. Now people dont ignore me anymore and nobody picks on me as a hobby.
And that brings me here, after deciding to take it to the next level by getting SU (and later PU of course).
To sum it up Im basically what could be said a reformed loser. However I still have lots of things to learn, and Im really looking forward to contribute in the community that has helped me so much.
Happy to be part of the team!!

Wanted to make a quick note on this:

Sounds like at least in the beginning it was useful, right?
In that sense, it was at least a wake-up call to get moving.
And I agree with you there is plenty of BS as it lacks nuance -and, as a movement, can turn disempowering and toxic as it overdoes the blame and complain game for my taste-, but on the plus side, it can add a lot more wisdom compared to the "general PC approach".
P.S.:
Cool sub-communication in the avatar. What I see in it is the courage and strength of the hungry underdog. Low power on the surface... But ready to rumble and not gonna make it easy for anyone to cross him :).
Hello man and welcome
