The term blackpill was first used in (which month of?) 2011 by a blog commenter named ''Paragon'' on the Dalrock anti-[[feminist]] blog. Paragon said only mass poverty could solve men's systemic [[dating]] issues, as he saw that as the only mechanism that could bind women to men short of eugenics. Facing [[dating]] difficulties in Ontario (Canada), Paragon moved from Canada to the Philippines, a less prosperous country than Canada, and married there.

[…] to reconcile that there are no personal solutions to systemic problems—which can only resolve over evolutionary time. | |||
And any solution will very much entail steep trade-offs, in that males can’t have their cake and eat it too—a prosperous population of deferred ecological pressures (like we currently enjoy), without an expectation that this prosperity will increase the mating latitude of females (dramatically perturbing the breeding population, to the point of near evolutionary instability). | |||
One will always follow the other, as male consensus on these matters is practically impossible in terms of inter-sexual competition(as opposed to the broad accord females enjoy through an abundant wealth of sexual opportunities, courtesy of their reproductively limiting function). | |||

The term was later (when?) adopted by [[Omega Virgin Revolt|OmegaVirginRevolt's blog]]. Modern blackpillers agree with Paragon that female desire is inflexible and that psychology is mostly determined by genetics. However, modern blackpillers favor mechanisms such as promiscuity-shaming instead of poverty, to bind individual women to individual men. | |||
