“The ‘manosphere’ online is filled with a certain kind of red-pilled bitterness which, when it is coupled with evolutionary and materialistic assumptions, produces an odd mix of appalling selfishness and cynicism (and reductionism with regard to sex) coupled with common grace insights that you would never hear from an evangelical beta-preacher.” ~ from the book

Douglas Wilson writes to a young man about how he should pursue a woman. Feminism has us catechized about what's attractive ("Men should be sensitive"), and evangelical pastors have only reinforced those lies with platitudes on servant-leadership (heavy on the servant, light on the leadership). When they find out that being a doormat doesn’t attract anyone, young men often rebound into the secular manosphere and its cocktail of selfishness and red-pilled bitterness. Douglas Wilson offers his own commonsense advice, sharp-edged and thoroughly biblical—not just on how to be the kind of man who attracts the right woman, but how to be the kind of man who keeps her.
