I can see a few trends on the horizon, especially in the west, and it could pose major issues for game and men in general:
1. A large increase of game-aware men (and by extension, women) - There's going to come a "critical mass" of red pill/game knowledge as more and more men come to know the major sources the main sources of game knowledge/news. You're going to see a lot more well-dressed, well spoken, competitive guys.The Red Pill Reddit has reached over 100,000 within the last year and it's rapidly increasing.
One personal example, living in the SF Bay Area, I have been going to the same bar for 4 years and there has been a marked increase in well groomed, interesting, aggressive dudes chatting up girls. They seem better able to handle (AMOG) other guys coming into their groups. I don't remember it like this 2-3 years ago at all.
2. The rise of gold digging - What was before seen as mostly limited to a "certain segment" of the female population is now becoming more and more prevalent. The proliferation of "sugar daddy" and other similar sites, some with millions of members. Even instagram. More seemingly "normal" girls are doing this than we would like to admit.
Bars and clubs will be more and more about displaying wealth and putting on a show in order to compete. It's no longer display how cool, interesting, well traveled, etc. It's who has the Ferrari, the nice watch, tailored Armani suits etc.
To make matters worse, it raises female expectations (for the general male population) if she is a at a certain attractiveness level. Like one poster here once remarked "You're not going to AMOG a guy with $100 million". That's the problem. It's a problem when a 6 wants a guy with $100 million and ALSO thinks she can get him.
3. More and more anti-male social campaigns/ideas - This represents an (blatantly obvious) attempt by certain groups and feminist movements to restrict male power. Numerous campaigns have been started against catcalling (a mostly harmless type of pickup strategy/game), fat acceptance (i.e. accepting low standards), anti-porn laws ( such as LA condom law), anti-frat campaigns and the list goes on. What's perhaps more amazing is all this happened within the last 2 years.
For now, men still have the power to discriminate/judge women worthy of their attention, dick, etc but how long until this is shamed into oblivion and you can no longer openly discriminate based upon tastes and preferences?
Given these developments, how might game/the manosphere (maybe innovatively) respond to these challenges?
