Outlines
😕 The Misconception of Low Value Males
The video script begins by addressing the concept of 'low value males' and its origins from the misinterpretation of alpha and beta male theories based on wolf behavior studies. The speaker, a psychiatrist, acknowledges the mix of truth and misinformation in this concept, and offers to clarify the distinction. The script also introduces Dr. K's guide as a resource for self-improvement. The speaker discusses the societal validation of men's experiences and the negative impact of invalidation on self-worth, particularly in the context of the 'manosphere' and 'red pill' ideologies that have gained traction due to their validation of men's struggles.
😟 The Psychological Impact of Shame and Rejection
This paragraph delves into the psychological effects of societal expectations and the shame associated with not meeting them, especially in the context of dating and relationships. The speaker explains how the 'red pill' community validates men's feelings of inadequacy and provides a script for self-improvement, which paradoxically can increase confidence. The paragraph also touches on the broader issue of societal invalidation of men's experiences, which can lead to feelings of low value and contribute to the appeal of the 'red pill' ideology.
🧐 Debunking Myths About High and Low Value Males
The speaker challenges the myths perpetuated by the 'red pill' community regarding high and low value males, pointing out cognitive biases influenced by shame. They discuss the skewed statistics and misunderstandings about dating app dynamics, such as the ratio of men to women and the reasons people use these apps. The paragraph highlights the importance of confidence over superficial attributes in attracting romantic partners and suggests that the 'red pill' approach, while sometimes effective in boosting confidence, often does so at the cost of reinforcing negative stereotypes and dehumanizing views.
🚫 The Dangers of Predatory Algorithms and Content
This section warns about the predatory nature of content algorithms that exploit users' insecurities and shame, particularly within the 'red pill' community. The speaker describes how these algorithms serve emotionally engaging content that reinforces negative self-perceptions and cognitive biases. They argue that this content can lead to a cycle of shame and inaction, rather than motivating meaningful life changes, and suggest that the 'red pill' community's business model capitalizes on this cycle of self-doubt and the desire for an antidote to perceived inadequacy.
🤔 Strategies to Overcome the 'Low Value Male' Label
The final paragraph offers practical advice for men who feel labeled as 'low value.' The speaker emphasizes the importance of building confidence and letting go of shame, suggesting that the perception of being a low value male is often a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Transcripts
today we're going to talk about how to
stop being a low value male
now this may sound surprising coming
from a psychiatrist who's trained and
has done clinical work and all that kind
of stuff because isn't all of this low
value stuff BS from the internet it
turns out that there is a lot of BS but
there's actually a lot of truth to it
too which is very scary and today we're
going to teach y'all where this concept
of low value mail comes from what part
of this sort of red pill ideology is BS
but shockingly what part of it is
actually very very valid and lastly once
we understand what's the difference
between what's scientifically correct
and what's kind of going on with people
we're going to offer you a road to get
out of this thinking that you're a low
value male hey just a quick note a lot
of people will ask us what do I do next
and that's why we built Dr K's guide
It's a comprehensive resource that
distills over 20 years of my experience
both as a monk and as a psychiatrist and
it's designed in a way that's tailored
to fit your needs so if you're
interested in better understanding your
mind and taking control of your life
check out the link below
so let's start with the BS so if we sort
of think about this concept of alpha
versus beta the original researcher who
sort of looked at this stuff and coined
these terms was studying wolves in
captivity and after they published this
paper and this kind of went wild because
everyone thought oh my God this person
has figured out that in social
hierarchies there are alphas and there
are betas but this person actually spent
the rest of their life actually trying
to disprove this and trying to explain
to people that hey these hierarchical
structures are artificial and exist
within captivity the basic point that
they sort of made is alphas and betas
may exist in something like a prison
system but if you are in a normal
healthy functioning Society social
structures are a lot more complex but
unfortunately at that point the cat had
gotten out of the bag the wolf had
gotten out of the bag and everyone
started believing this stuff and so then
the question becomes okay if this is not
scientifically accurate why on Earth is
this kind of manosphere red pill kind of
stuff growing and the more and more
women that I talk to whether they be
clients patients random people from the
internet the more that this is becoming
a problem so I've talked to a ton of
women who will say my boyfriend my
husband my son especially is starting to
go down the red pill rabbit hole and
then they're sort of starting to become
like really really like condescending
towards women hateful towards women
really misogynistic and we're not quite
sure like what to do how do I deal with
this person and this is where we have to
understand something really really
important which is that the red pill
manosphere sort of section is the one
place in society that really validates
men and sort of meets them where they're
at now this is kind of shocking but I
want you to think a little bit and if
you don't believe me talk to men about
their experiences about this because
that's what we've done so right now if
you're a man living in today's world and
you complain about something and you say
like hey my life is hard in some way
there's a very good chance that someone
out there will respond to that with some
kind of condescension or invalidation
you'll hear a lot of talk about how
Society is a patriarchy and therefore
you don't have a right to complain and
I'm not saying that Society isn't a
patriarchy we're not going to kind of
dive into that sociology what I'm sort
of pointing out is that when a man in
today's world complains or suffers in
some way and voices that complaint with
their frequently met by is an
invalidating response and someone's
saying well why are you complaining
you're part of the majority you're part
of the patriarchy you have all of these
advantages of being a male and I'm not
saying that there aren't advantages of
being male or once again that the
society isn't patriarchal but in that
moment how does that person feel so I
see this a lot in clinical stuff where
we see sort of these trauma competitions
so when I'm working inpatient on these
trauma units you'll get a group of
people in group therapy and so one
person will say I was traumatized in
this way and someone else will say well
that's nothing I was traumatized in this
way and so in that moment moment
someone's looking for compassion and
validation and someone else invalidates
them and in some situations like it kind
of makes sense so let's say that I'm
complaining about losing one leg and
then someone else sitting next to me can
say well what are you complaining about
you've at least got one leg I lost both
of my legs and in an objective sense
you're right that like losing two legs
is probably worse than losing one leg
but in that moment it's incredibly
invalidating and so the one reason why I
think that the manosphere red pill stuff
is growing and if you're a woman who
dislikes the stuff or you're a man who
dislikes the stuff you all need to
really understand this the reason it's
growing is it's because the only place
on the Internet or in our society in
general where people will consistently
validate men's experiences and what does
that look like let's understand this
so if I say hey it's hard to date or I
can't find a romantic partner or women
reject me right so I get judged for
being a creep I get judged in this way
whatever the situation is my life is
hard
and the red pill folks kind of come
along and they say you're right
your life is hard that's because you're
a loser that's because you suck that's
because you're a low value male and
here's how to fix it whereas the rest of
society says why are you complaining
your life isn't hard someone else has it
worse
and so this is the one reason if you
want to understand why people are going
down the red pill Rabbit Hole this is
the central point now that we have that
context we can actually tunnel down into
what makes a man a low value male and
how to fix it so let's start by
understanding the psychological impact
of this Dynamic so when you're a human
being and Society tells you that you
should be doing well and you are not
doing well and if you complain they say
you shouldn't be complaining what is the
primary emotion that that evokes shame
right so we see this with like ADHD as
well when a kid is told hey if you just
work harder you would do so much better
if you just apply yourself you would do
so much better what that actually
induces in the child is shame we're not
telling the child hey there's actually a
problem which keeps you performing from
performing or telling a child is that
your lack of performance is a choice and
if you behave differently then you'd be
doing bad better at life leads to a ton
of Shame which is why seventy percent of
kids who have ADHD and depression
develop ADHD first and then wind up with
depression later
and so what effect does shame have on
someone's idea of whether the low value
or high value it's kind of a silly
question right because the more ashamed
you are obviously the more low value
that you're you're going to think you
are and now we also see why red pill
stuff quote unquote works because if we
look at the strategy of the red pill
manosphere what they sort of say is yeah
your life does suck and by the way do
these things and your life will get
better start going to the gym start
setting boundaries with people which is
really what they're doing cut some
people off who are emotionally
manipulative
um you know start to get sexier right so
do your hair different get better
clothes and the other really interesting
thing is I've seen over the last year or
two a lot of people in the manosphere
and even the toxic manosphere
recommending therapy they'll say go get
your issues sorted out in therapy and so
if we sort of look at this kind of red
pill Dynamic all of the things that they
tell people to do will actually
correlate with an increase in confidence
and even if you look at the science
sense of what sort of women find
attractive or human beings in general
find attractive they're attracted to
confidence as opposed to shame so I
think some of the reason that the red
pill stuff quote unquote works and I
don't think it always works or doesn't
even work well in a lot of cases is that
they sort of give people a script from
if you are ashamed of yourself here is a
road to put together your life and then
you will feel better about yourself and
I don't think it's the fact that they're
necessarily making more money or the
fact that they got sexy those things
definitely matter and will definitely
improve your you know dating success the
other the the main thing though is that
they really help people improve their
confidence and once the confidence
changes I think that's the linchpin of
no longer being a low value male
so then the question kind of becomes
okay so why do people get all of the
shame is it just as simple as their
invalidating responses and this is where
I think that there are a lot of truths
that low value males believe or the red
pillars believe that aren't actually
true so one thing that leads to a lot of
Shame is men who go on dating apps and
get rejected over and over and over
again
so this is something where if you look
at it like men will say okay like women
can get matches all the time but I've
been struggling I I'm on dating apps day
after day I swipe out for 600 swipes I
get one match and so if you think about
the amount of rejection that someone
goes through on a dating app it's
astronomical right human beings were not
designed to be rejected like 599 times
for one acceptance when I was in high
school like I got rejected maybe once or
twice and that's like all I had the
balls for right like you can't just
chain ask people out and get rejected
and then in college I got rejected a
couple more times the human brain is not
designed for like 600 rejections over
the course of six months and so that too
is shame inducing the really tricky
thing though is that once people get
rejected so much they start to formulate
some of these beliefs like okay they'll
hear these statistics like the top 10
percent of dudes on dating apps get 90
percent of the dates and so what they
sort of will reinforce is there's this
idea of two buckets they're the high
value men in the low value men and I'm
down here it turns out that a lot of
these things about high value and low
value men are actually cognitive biases
that are induced and driven by shame and
if you really want to stop being a low
value man what you need to do is work on
your confidence and get rid of your
cognitive biases so let's explore this
statistic to understand this a little
bit better
so there are some estimates that show
that actually like the dating ratio on
some of these apps is actually ten to
one men to women and so it's not that
the top 10 percent of dudes are dating
nine women each it's that there's 10
women and a hundred dudes and so like of
course in a sense the top ten percent
whatever that means are dating ten it's
still a one-to-one ratio it's just
there's a lopsided number of people in
the game the second thing that's really
interesting is there was recently a
study that came out that up to 50
percent of people on dating apps and I
think this was primarily looking at
women
actually use dating apps to for
psychological reasons that have nothing
to do with dating so I think what
started to happen is a lot of people
have figured out that I can get some of
my emotional needs met
through dating apps even if I'm not
interested in dating so out of the 10
women on there possibly only five of
them are actually interested in dating
and so then it sort of makes sense why
like you know for for 10 women on there
like your rejection rate is going to be
way higher because half the women that
you you look at profiles for may not
even be interested in dating at all the
point is that this all reinforces these
kinds of Statistics which we don't think
about right so if you're a dude on a
dating app today all you're going to see
is that rejection after rejection after
rejection after rejection and then
you're gonna watch all this like content
on the internet and we gotta talk about
that for a second so why does all this
red pill content like if you watch a
single sort of red pill manosphere kind
of video you'll notice that all of these
content algorithms will start serving it
up to you like hand over fist and why is
that it's because this content is
emotionally engaging right so if I'm
ashamed of myself and I think my life
sucks and anytime I try to go talk to
someone about it if they say you're a
loser there's the patriarchy go screw
yourself you have nothing to complain
about I'm gonna get rejected from that
and then here's this pipeline of stuff
that validates my experience and that's
what's really beautiful about not
beautiful but kind of scary is that what
these these algorithms was basically
figured out is that in order to keep a
user engaged I have to emotionally
engage them this is why we love cat
videos of them doing cute things it's
all about emotional engagement and so
what happens with some dudes is we have
these experiences on dating apps we
watch one video that resonates with our
experience and then the content
algorithm figures it out ah here's a
dude who feels bad about themselves and
so they start to prey on that Chain by
serving you more emotionally engaging
content and then the more emotionally
engaging content you get the more
cognitive bias happens right because now
you're hearing from one dude after
another dude after another dude after
another dude and even a lot of women
right because you'll see those kinds of
things and you'll see women say yeah I'd
never dated someone who gets below this
and went out and is this this tall and
whatever and by the way if you guys just
want to know like statistically right so
the number of men who make six figures
or over six feet tall and have a six
inch dick is like less than one percent
of the population and like most of the
people out there are not dating that
person
the problem is that this cognitive bias
reinforces your beliefs that you have to
be in this top one percent to get any
kind of affection then the problem is
that if you believe this about yourself
you're ashamed of yourself any romantic
attempts you make
are going to be sabotaged not because
you're not in the top one percent but
because you're ashamed of yourself to
begin with and you don't have any
confidence which is what a lot of what
people find attractive and so they end
up shooting themselves in the foot
if you want to stop being a low value
man and notice I'm not saying this is
how you become a high value man because
I think a low value man is a combination
of a pile of Shame invalidation from the
environment and a cognitive bias that is
reinforced through predatory content
algorithms and it's not just the content
algorithms that are preying on this
shame this is also what we see with sort
of red red pill manosphere kind of stuff
is what these these algorithms will
basically do is they'll bludgeon you
into more and more and more shame and at
some point the shame gets so high that
you're willing to Fork over money for
someone to help you fix this problem
right so this is why if you look at all
the people who are selling stuff they're
going to really be leaning into hey you
suck hey life is hard hey you suck hey
this is how to be great and then they
show all this this fancy stuff with
these sexy dudes and sexy women and each
time you watch that you feel worse and
worse and worse about yourself and then
someone comes along and says give me
that money give me your credit card
information and I will fix it for you so
there's even this darwinian effect from
a business model around these kinds of
things I don't know that these people
have really calculated it this far I
don't think that a lot of them have a
fundamental understanding of psychology
but I think what they've sort of figured
out is this is what works the worse I
can get someone to feel about themselves
and then if I sort of like give them an
antidote they'll take it another simple
way to kind of think about this is if I
can dehydrate someone then the
likelihood that they'll buy water is
going to be way higher which is why all
this content actually induces shame but
generally speaking what we're talking
about is abandoning the psychological
complex and this is what we've seen I've
seen not only as a psychiatrist but when
we work at he with like tons of like in
cells and red pill kind of people this
is the path we walk to them that walk
with them that helps them get into
healthy relationships so the first thing
that we've got to understand is that the
reason you're a low value male is
because you think you're a low value
male the shame that you carry around and
the lack of confidence is ultimately the
single most controllable thing that is
sabotaging your efforts at relationships
the second thing that we've got to
understand is that most of this red pill
stuff succeeds at helping people build
confidence and that's like good in a way
I think the problem is that it carries a
negative and toxic world view that is
like very dehumanizing for like half the
population and even for a lot of men so
I'm not sort of in favor of that but a
lot of that stuff that they sort of tell
you to do I think it's good to do I
think if you are not happy about the way
that you look you should exercise more
you should start eating healthy you
should get into therapy you should
update your wardrobe you should do all
of that stuff all that stuff is actually
fantastic by all means put together your
life but understand that it's primarily
a shame and confidence thing the second
thing that we're going to talk about is
I strongly recommend that you sort of
reduce your red pill manosphere content
so remember that all this content is
designed to be emotionally engaging and
sort of induce further and further
amounts of Shame now this is not just as
simple as so stop watching stuff well
let's walk walk through it a little bit
okay so here here's the main question I
would encourage you to to ask is when I
watch this content for an hour what do I
end up feeling like and what do I end up
doing at the end of one hour of
consuming this content now chances are
what you'll primarily feel is like
ashamed of yourself but also really
validated and a lot of like righteous
anger yeah things are hard and uh yeah
and people don't understand and the
world is going to and like oh my
God that's how you're going to feel but
then the question is do you actually get
up and do something about it because the
other problem with this content is it
says that women are to blame and the
world is to blame which sort of is kind
of weird because you can't fix that so
the problem with a lot of this content
is that if you really pay attention
yourself if you've been watching it for
a day or a week or a month or a year how
many changes have you actually made in
your life because what I found is that
the more it induces shame eventually
maybe you'll buy a course but I don't
know that that's actually gonna fix
anything but that shame will actually
get in the way of you making progress in
life so I'd highly highly recommend
seriously just like unsubscribing from
this stuff for a while and the last
thing to consider is just getting the
hell off of dating apps now I know
dating apps are super convenient and
there's this idea that everyone is using
them but I don't know that people are
using them successfully so the other
thing to really think about is that a
lot of this like stuff that you feel
comes fundamentally from the rejection
of a dating app and there may be some
dating apps in which this is better but
I've seen like I've seen plenty of
horror stories from all of the dating
apps because there's still some evidence
that up to 50 of people are using these
dating apps to fulfill other
psychological needs so one simple
example of this is sometimes you'll you
know match with people who are like
really condescending and will like just
unmatch you or tell you to go screw
yourself and then unmatch you within
like three minutes and then it's like
what what the hell why did you match me
in the first place people will like log
on and they'll say hey matched hey
you're you're a loser screw you you'll
never get late and then they'll matching
you're like why the hell did you match
me in the first place and that's because
they're using the dating app to sort of
like
support or get some other kinds of
emotional needs met in this case it's
sort of feeling Superior so when I feel
feel inferior or like when other people
crap on me and make me feel bad about
myself what I'm gonna do is find someone
else who's lower than me to crap on to
make myself feel better this is like
Bully psychology 101. and so really just
get the hell off of dating apps and the
more that you're on dating apps you've
really got to be careful because like
there may be sort of a 1 to 20 ratio of
like your chances of success of finding
like a partner who will like actually be
interested in you and then that relation
then you know that's just a chance like
that one out of 20 people may actually
be interested in you and then like that
could fall apart so things are super
lopsided and they really really
reinforce this cognitive bias and shame
and then you may be wondering but Dr K
you're just telling me to get the hell
off of dating apps and unsubscribe from
content oh my God how am I supposed to
exist on the internet because that's
what everyone's doing that's not what
everyone's doing that's what everyone
who isn't in a healthy relationship is
doing so thankfully there's like this
counter swing that's going on in our
society with things like meetup groups
or like board game cafes we're starting
to see the emergence of third spaces
Discord is exploding in popularity and
why is that it's because the existing
stuff out there sucks and some people
have figured figured out that oh crap
the internet is toxic and even though
it's hard I have to start like engaging
with people in the real world and the
problem is that once people like make
that shift they don't return to the
internet and they don't make content
about like dating right they're too busy
out there dating living their lives
getting married having kids which just
reinforces the cognitive bias of the
internet and so I know it's really
tricky but these are the three things
that you really have to do
work on your confidence and we have a
whole resource pack on confidence and
kind of how to do that because it's a
complicated and long-term process second
thing to really think about is really
like unsubscribe from some of that
content and the main thing there is
really ask yourself and pay attention to
the more of this stuff that I watch what
does it inspire me to do because for
most y'all there's a decent chance that
all it inspires you to do is watch more
of that content and sit around on your
ass or get distracted by video games or
whatever else or jerk off and the third
thing is really stop using dating apps
or at least take a break for them and
try to work on meeting people in other
ways now that's really hard because
dating apps are so damn convenient but
just because it's convenient doesn't
mean it's doesn't suck right like gum on
the bottom of chairs and desks is
conveniently accessible and free that
doesn't mean you should be eating it and
the same thing applies to dating apps so
at the end of the day I think that if
you feel like you're a low value male
you can absolutely stop being a low
value male and that will improve your
chances of success but it doesn't mean
that you need to buy all this BS about
becoming a high value male
