Fast forward to 3:30 in the video for her reaction

I think he still looked pretty darn good after. Yes he's a bitch because he supplicated to his fatass wife.

But he does not look like an "average beta". He's a handsome fellow. Just a shit attitude

My opinion may be a little different from alot of the comments here. I do believe he looks better (in the sense be is more presentable). Not presentable by someone else, but he can present himself better. I'm referring to the corporate world. When dealing with stake holders or having that "clean" look could go along way in his case - this is due to his fashion sense. There are people who can pull off the beard and long hair look in a corporate world but he didn't seem to have that fashion sense and the maintainence to go with it. However, this is situation ofcourse. Depending what he does for a living can chance my opinion drastically. It also goes with your goals and values.

"Why don't you stop using that shit? I don't like it." says my wife, about minoxidil. (rogaine) - the thing is - it has been working. My wife would rather that I continue balding.... bad enough that I have been getting ripped and enjoying my life.

Her fuck up was having him groomed. He looks a lot more aesthetic after the makeover and I wouldn't be surprised if he starts getting attention from other females.

He looked like a caveman prior to the makeover.

Great, now the wife needs a makeover in the form of losing all that weight.

tldr; bitch that needs to lose 80lbs bitches that that her husband needs a haircut and a shave.

no homo, but I think the dude looks way better now. Oprah needs to do a follow up episode where he shed the ham beast wife and comes on the show with his new physically fit girlfriend.

Your conclusions are correct, but women are not thinking the way you describe. They are not logical, thinking "I need to beta my husband". They operate based on emotions, not logic. Changing the husband DOES make her feel good, just not in the way she thinks it does. She pushes change because her insecurities are raging; making him less "manly" quiets those fears because INSTINCTIVELY it makes her feel safe. The reality and logic is that she is making him less attractive to competition, but she doesn't see nor understand this. It is a fix to quell her fears and make her feel safe. She equates feeling safe with attraction, but is lying to herself as much as to her partner. And when she loses sexual attraction and divorces him, she will say that HE changed as a person, blaming him, when the reality is she forced the change to begin with.

That was sickening to watch. This guy has no game, no frame. He's just her bitch. He is pretty good looking too. Goes to show you that looks aren't everything, you can still be a beta fuck.

"I dare you to make me look better than I do now."

Peak moment. It was all downhill for him after that.

Anyway, I think you suggest but don't drive home the most important point. She clearly was under his tree long before this TV show. His beard was not a problem. This was a deliberate attempt to change him and women do that for a singular purpose--to entrench you in their frame. Don't fall for it. Could he have maybe groomed his beard some more? Yeah, I guess if the Beard Judging Association of Hair was in town, sure. But the last thing he should do is enter her frame.

Fuck dude. Sport big ass beard and love it. It's up to her if she likes it. The door is in that direction and the bed is in the other--pick one.

I've experienced this a lot firsthand, and if it hasn't been termed already, I'll call it Delilah Syndrome, the pressing need of women to undermine men with higher SMV by pressuring them to cut their hair/facial hair.

When I was in middle school I grew my hair down to my shoulders. I was clueless about how to style it but I have very healthy and appealing hair and got lots of praise for it, including from a busty girl several years older than me at my local pool. My mom and sister hated it though, and eventually I got tired of hearing them complain and managing that much hair on a daily basis and got it cut. Later I came to realize that most people I ask think I look better with long hair, and my ex was pretty adamant about that, but I got it cut regardless, much to her annoyance.

Same thing with facial hair. Of course Mom and sis hated it. Mine is nothing to write home about, but I wouldn't feel like a man without it. Even though I can't grow a full beard, what facial hair I do have is a real confidence booster in all honesty, especially when so many other guys my age are beginning to sport some kind of it. I've had several older relatives tell me that they're impressed, and hell, my dad even started growing a mustache-goatee combo like the one I have.

Lesson learned: disregard womanspeak, acquire status

Dated a girl once in college who didn't have her own car. She worked at the school and after work went to her friend's dorm room. Meanwhile I was taking pre workout to go to the gym. I get a random call with her telling me to come pick her up. At first I politely stated that I had just taken pre workout and had just got to the gym and needed to workout, get it out of my system, then I would be there to pick her up. She became infuriated and said "It's raining!" To which I relooked, "you're indoors". She hangs up, then texts me that beta orbiter bob who's also at her friend's dorm thinks it's not cool of me as a boyfriend to not pick her up. I told her I didn't care what he thought and if she likes what he thinks so much, she'll enjoy hanging out with them until I got done with my workout. I finished my workout and guess where she was when I was done? My place, because her friend's bf was my roommate and he picked them up. He was also a gym rat, so she got a dose from him of how she should understand that I was working out, so she apologized to me when I got home. Sometimes we lose this ability when a chick is really attractive. At that point it's always best to step back and regain control of ourselves.

I think he looks better with the new look, and it's not like he's clean shaven. If he did working out to broaden his shoulders, he'd be where he needs to be.

I think this is gonna back fire on Jabba the hutt's sister. No homo but the dude looks very studly and alpha. Definitely could slay some nice strange. Hope he finds a better woman.

Hmm. Mixed feelings because he is obviously still an attractive guy. But I have to wonder why she won't change even if he's still attractive without the Moses beard.

She's fat as hell. Why doesn't she start by losing some weight for her man. And btw. the beard looks great. He looked much better before getting beatified. Before he had character, now he looks like an office drone.

This is a perfect demonstration of some of the science often found here. I think this was also mentioned in one of Rollo's posts.

Men in LTRs have lower testosterone compared to single men. As we know, more testoserone = more alpha behaviour. A woman over time through subtle and overt means endeavours to reduce her partner's T, literally betatizing him. This works for her because as OP said, betas offer more security, and it is a simultaneous shit test for her hypergamy.

Never forget, the genders are at war. It is nature's way of constantly assessing your strength, your fitness, whatever you call it. Never give them an inch, mercilessly, ruthlessly crush every one of their shit tests.

I think this was from IM - men fashion women into something they love, women fashion men into something they hate and are disgusted by. So every time you say yes, you are literally turning more and more into an object of disgust.

Yeah that guys hair and beard were infinitely badass. He totally lost frame and should have told her to fuck off

There are plenty of shows like this in the related videos section of the video linked above. You will see this trend happen every, single, time. Assuming they go from that 'manly rugged' look to mr. clean beta bob.

Here's another one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njch7iQtVQE

All the girls in the comment section hated that he cut his beard and said that his woman had him by the balls!

I looked like a toad with short hair and no goatee or facial hair.. wife always said looks good babe.. that was 6 years ago before I took the pill and realized it was her way of keeping my smv lower than hers.

Now it's full sculpted beard, long hair and my plates love love love it!

Funny thing is, even though he was a total bitch, the comments were still full of "Now he just has to lose his fat pig of a wife" and "Great move on his wife's part, she just made him more attractive to other women".

He's good looking either way, but definitely hotter with the wild mane and beard. He should have agreed to do it only if she lost 75lbs.

I maintain a longish curly set that gives me a low-rent Greek god look (I look alright facially but the hair really pushes me up in SMV). One day out of the blue my LTR declares that curly hair is considered "unprofessional and threatening" and said I should trim it back to the near-buzz I had it way before. Turns out some of her friends had been making positive noises about my locks, and the hamster decided to build a perimeter.

Don't fall for it. You grew the damn thing yourself, so continue looking like you're off to find the Golden Fleece.

On a separate note, good God dude...this explains all the snide remarks my extended family (especially my aunts) say to me about my lifting.

Wtf are you talking about the guy looked like a homeless bum before the makeover

Sweetheart, when he first met you you weren't the buffet-bane you are now, but I'm guessing Obrah would not countenance a makeover to get you to lose the bridgestone, that would be sexist.

I believe you are wrong. The betafication will happen when they get home after this, his SMV was too low before and too high after in order for this to be an attempt at making him deep into her frame. He didn't have any options before, now he has.

Lol his beardline is all fucked up after shaving it but other than that let's be honest here he looks way better and he looked like shit before. Dude is obviously super beta but it has nothing to do with his looks other than maybe his looks before shaving that shit

Very honestly, I don't see how his previous version of himself would do better in a club or professional setting than the current version. We preach how a man should take care of himself. Proper wardrobe, have a nice hearcut, trimming your beard to look your best. This guy turned from a fucking homeless jesus into the man that clearly maintains himself, and now he's called a fucking beta? The only beta thing I see is that he doesn't make his wife work out more and eat less cake to feel good about herself. It's a useless video and a poor example in my opinion.
