Red Pill Marriage – Cliff’s Notes (and a note on a future Podcast)
So I sometimes forget that I’ve been at this for a long time. It has been years for me since I felt that tugging malaise of a marriage and sex life falling into the doldrums as childreering became the focus. I’m far from a master at marriage or this Red Pill stuff, but I’ve come […]
