Brutal I read an Old Slavic Folktale that Confirmed the Blackpill is as Old as Time

[ALifeWastedOnRot]

I was recently reading some classic medieval literature. Many interesting stories come from old writings, and one can peer into the minds of our ancestors who lived hundreds of years before us. Indian, English, Nordic, German, Native American, and of course Slavic stories filled the pages of this seemingly interesting book of which I stumbled upon while clearing out my formerly deceased Danish grandmother's belongings. Reading the stories brought me back to the innocence of childhood in a fleetingly comforting way but it wasn't long before the brutality of the blackpill reared its ugly head right through my heart, ruining my day and corrupting my sleep.

An old Slavic tale called "The Devil with the Three Golden Hairs", thought to have originated in what is now referred to as the Kingdom of Czech, is about the birth of an "exceptionally HANDSOME" young peasant boy, to whom is prophesied to marry the King's daughter and one day take the throne. The King, not wanting a lowly peasant to marry his literal Princess, orders the boy to be drowned in a local river. The boy miraculously survives and through thick and thin, finds his way into the Royal Palace, seduces the daughter, and marries into the royal linage before the King can even find out. Rightfully angered by this intrusive Chad, the King sends the young boy off on an impossible task to retrieve three golden hairs from a monster, hoping he will die on his journey. The boy narrowly escapes death multiple times, only to be saved by his "striking good looks". His adventure is filled with women and men alike granting him unreasonable favors because he is the "most handsome boy they have laid their eyes upon".

TLDR - a middle aged fairy tale is about how if you are good looking enough, you do anything, including marry into the Royal linage. Society will make exception for you and help you on whatever daring enduring task is at your disposal because that's just what happens to GigaChads. The King who tries to isolate his daughters virginity from this horny Chad will be painted as the villain, and be casted off his Throne by cosmic forces for trying to impede what is clearly the natural order.

I empathize with the medieval incel writing that story thinking about how life would be if he had good looks..

I can only imagine him jerking his little penis off, imagining himself as this Chad while wheatfield Stacies surround him and beg for his cock.

I read a collection of hungarian folktales recently and yeah the youngest, blondest character always comes out on top. But then I tried reading some Grimm folktales and I remember stopping after 3 stories because they were bluepilled.

Do you happen to remember what they were called? I am interested if you have the names.

The Grimm ones? Either way no, those books are in an apartment in another city right now.

No, Grimm looks way too mainstream and normie. I have much greater interest in classical literature for the reasons stated in my OP.

There's a nice channel on youtube with well animated hungarian folk tales, it used to air on a cartoon channel in my country as a child, the early episodes are good but eventually they get into communist era folktales which suck. This channel is the reason I decided to read the book.

Very interesting, thank you, I will certainly give this a watch.

Stuff like political correctness and "personality" wasn't a thing back then.

I would have assumed it was almost entirely based on social status and wealth.

I didn't even make the connection but you're absolutely right. Incel brokie to Billionnaire Heiress's husband.

isn't this a pretty common tale in many cultures

Perhaps, the book had it under the "Slavic fairytales" and Gemini claims it's originates from the Czech Republic, but other sources say it's German... so probably.

so over.
