I’m new to RPW and since adopting some of these principles over the last month, I have learned so much about myself, my SO and am loving the benefits of it all. I’m working each day at being more feminine. Some feminine ways come more naturally than others and I’m still learning each day, through this forum and books I’ve been reading, that certain behaviors of mine are rather masculine. I’m grateful to have people pointing out behaviors as being “masculine” or “dominant” because, my upbringing taught me that these behaviors were normal for women and positive characteristics. But, today, I am wondering about how Red Pill pertains to politics. My SO hates when I discuss politics. Whether I am saying something that I think he agrees with or disagrees with, he just does not want to hear it. It bothers me because I like to think out loud and an am excited to share new ways of thinking I’ve adapted but he finds it annoying. He also doesn’t care to share his own perspectives. I understand that when he says he doesn’t want to talk about something, I should stfu rather than pushing him to listen or respond (what I would have done in the past). I also understand he may respond this way because of how I have reacted in the past to his beliefs that I disagreed with and that it may take time to earn trust back to be able to talk about certain things again. I’ve done a lot of damage.
But my question is, is it masculine to want to discuss politics? Or is it more likely my past behaviors that are turning him off from wanting to discuss them with me? I feel sad that he didn’t want to hear what I had to say, especially since I thought it would be something we may share opinions on. But I respected his wishes and shut my mouth. Is there hope to talk about these things in the future after earning trust back or is this something I should try to only discuss with a friend? If I’m asking the wrong questions, other related advice is welcome.
