1	How prevalent is female sexual harassment of males? More common than you'd think or almost nonexistent? If you definition of "Sexual harassment" is what women consider sexual harassment, then i'd bet that more than 90% of men have been sexually harassed. Are you a woman, who have ever mentioned her period at work? Then you've sexually harassed men. Ever hugged a male coworker? You might have sexually harassed him. Mentioned sex? That too. The definition is so loose and subjective than i'm wondering if anyone hasn't done something that could have been interpreted as harassment. And yes, women are j…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/11/17 03:03 PM
3	Don't bullshit yourself True. I thought i wrote "Objective" somewhere but i must have forgotten it. If your results can't be counted or objectively measured, to some degree, then it's probably not real. You'll notice that the people who bullshit themselves always use completely subjective metrics for themselves. "I'm strong", "I have a great personality", "I'm nice", "I'm ambitious" etc. If you don't know how much you can lift, you're probably not that strong. If you're not constantly invited out or struggle to get dat…	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 07:59 AM
6	Don't bullshit yourself An expensive-looking watch, yes. An expensive watch in itself, no. It all depends on context and execution.	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 07:54 AM
2	Don't bullshit yourself Not bad advice, obvious advice. To us. Some people still needs it, trust me. What i wrote in this post has been obvious to a lot of people, but it's still good advice. About the nice watch, i'd say it depends on the watch. If you buy a giant, gold-plated, diamond encrusted log? Yeah, that's insecure. Something stylish, simple, but good looking? It's basically a bracelet, but for men.	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 06:39 AM
2	Don't bullshit yourself I wouldn't get a Rolex. It screams "I'm trying too hard" imo. It's one of those things that have gotten so big, that it has a pretty significant stigma attacked to it, about people trying to show off. It's basically the Axe spray of watches.	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 06:35 AM
55	Don't bullshit yourself That's something worthy of a post all in itself: The disappointment you see in peoples eyes when they ask you how you did it, and you tell them "Hard work/Eat Less etc." They want to hear about the magic fix that solved all your problems with minimal effort. You can literally see how their eyes go blank when they realize you're not going to tell them (Because it doesn't exist)	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 06:34 AM
23	Don't bullshit yourself In theory, yeah. In reality, they just make up more excuses. People are pathetic. I've invited so many people to tag along with me after they asked me about my routine, my hobbies, my parties etc. At best they join once and then come up with a bunch of excuses. Mostly they are just "too busy." "How do you get so many girls?" "I'm always going out to parties. Want to tag along?" "Nah, i'm smoking weed with my friends" "How do you look so fit?" "I train a lot. Do you want to tag along this weekend…	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 06:30 AM
1	Don't bullshit yourself Of course some people take steroids, but to say that 85% of the people on his gym are? Unless he's lifting in some underground, ghetto-gym, that's beyond retarded. Besides, i think the natty look is much better.	/r/TheRedPill	31/10/17 06:20 AM
7	Don't bullshit yourself He doesn't know me. This acc is 2 weeks old and has no connection to me IRL whatsoever. It's just a salty troll that's upset because i poked his bubble of insecurity.	/r/TheRedPill	30/10/17 06:33 PM
3	Don't bullshit yourself I said work smarter and harder. you know why that guy is so jacked, because of steroids, you know why that girl got a promotion, she slept with the boss. You know why you are so weak, You have low T Sounds like bullshit excuses to me. Makes you feel all good to say them, but in the end you're still in the exact same place as you were before. 85% of the people are on them in my gym Because you asked them, or because you just decided that everybody with a better physique than you are cheating? Thi…	/r/TheRedPill	30/10/17 05:45 PM
1	Don't bullshit yourself You can always get a fitbit or something like that. Doubles as a watch. Waste of money though, imo.	/r/TheRedPill	30/10/17 04:15 PM
4	CMV: The male epidemics of loneliness and sexual frustration aren’t problems that warrant societal fixing It's not going to be some sort of huge organized thing. It will probably be more like Japan, where the men just stop trying. And when enough men stop trying, it becomes a problem.	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/10/17 08:56 AM
2	CMV: The male epidemics of loneliness and sexual frustration aren’t problems that warrant societal fixing Feminists were widely regarded as a joke when they started off as well. Maybe i'm biased, but there has definitely been a huge surge in focus on mens issues in the later years, more acknowledgment to unfair treatment, more distribution of responsibilities etc. Sure, it's still facing opposition from the radfems on the left and the right-wing boomers, but most people in the middle are starting to acknowledge it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/10/17 08:56 AM
76	Oh just a slide from a presentation in my Psychology class This is just lazy argumenting. "Let's ignore everything he/she said and focus exclusively on how he said it/the quality of his powerpoint" We bash tumblerinas for denying facts and resorting to ad-hominem, and then the top-comments all do exactly that. These are facts. We can talk about nuance, and possible underlying causes and more importantly solutions, but it's literally fact-denial to say that men do not perpetuate the vast majority of violent crimes.	/r/MensRights	25/10/17 09:01 PM
2	Introducing the "Leftovers": Formerly desirable women who are past their prime, and who now complain about being single and alone. Only if you let them. I use the possibility for them as a carrot to help me push and motivate myself.	/r/TheRedPill	25/10/17 08:02 PM
18	"But, if the roles were reversed..." - A concerning trend Yep. A lot of dudes whine about how "It's only creepy if the guy is ugly" but that applies in reverse as well. Just like with dudes, ugly, low-value girls are far more likely to be socially retarded. They are the ones who do the groping, not the hot ones. The ones groping and harassing women aren't attractive, successful men. Because attractive and successful men don't actually need to do that shit, because women give it to them freely. And the women groping and harassing men are not attractive …	/r/TheRedPill	25/10/17 08:13 AM
2	Woman slaps a guy in convenience store argument, he lets it slide. She and her man get greedy, their chins end up paying the price Because 90% of fat dudes think "It's all muscle bruh" And because 90% of people think they know how to fight, because they've watched action movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fe3na9umxDA	/r/PussyPassDenied	25/10/17 07:13 AM
3	The female perspective of the dating market In my experience, most women who complain about the dating and not being able to find someone are shooting way above their league.	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/10/17 04:28 PM
0	The female perspective of the dating market Eh, she can get a ONS now and then, but i doubt a 9/10 or higher would even sleep with her.	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/10/17 04:22 PM

0	What does the top 20% of men think about gender politics? With the risk of sounding arrogant, i'd put myself in the top 20%. Judging by my sexual history, i'd say it's warranted. I am interested in Gender Politics, but try to mostly keep it at arms length. Feminists annoy me and RedPillers often make me cringe. I do pay more attention to it nowadays, even though it's mostly shitposting, but back when i was sleeping around i hardly cared at all and laughed openly at redpillers. I'm pretty certain than the top 20% are far less likely to be feminists. Thi…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/10/17 04:12 PM
3	Men are struggling to deal with the fact they don’t control what women find attractive any more Not really. He just rehashed the RedPill view. A Nuanced viewwould be to mention parts where men fuck up as well. Whatever. It's a pointless discussion.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/10/17 08:07 PM
3	Men are struggling to deal with the fact they don’t control what women find attractive any more Nuance is when you consider both sides. Not just when you make a point people like and agree with.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/10/17 08:03 PM
3	Men are struggling to deal with the fact they don’t control what women find attractive any more Eh, dude i'm red-leaning but this is definitely not nuanced at all.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/10/17 08:01 PM
7	Men are struggling to deal with the fact they don’t control what women find attractive any more Judging by all the articles i've read with fat, ugly or old women trying to shame men for not finding them attractive, i'd say it goes both ways. Now it’s time to listen to and observe women. We have no say in the matter any more. This is correct to some degree, however it implies that women are infallible. That many women don't massively overestimate their own value, that they don't have completely contradictive values. They want to earn as much as men, yet refuse to date men who earn less than…	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/10/17 11:35 AM
9	Harassment denied If you're swole, women basically treat your body like public property.	/r/PussyPassDenied	21/10/17 07:20 AM
5	Feminism and RP are pretty much he same I swear 99% of the people who accuse someone of this doesn't even know what it means. The GMF doesn't say that the middle ground is never right. It says that it's a fallacy to assume that the middle ground is always right. And even if a fallacy has been commited, it doesn't nullify the argument, it just makes it a bad argument. See the Fallacy Fallacy.	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/10/17 06:05 AM
48	Harassment denied It's funny how many women that freak out if men try to "Invalidate" their experiences, yet still think that they can tell men how to sit most comfortably.	/r/PussyPassDenied	20/10/17 03:22 PM
1	Q4RP: Do you really think that feminism is merely a shit test? Not at all. I think that feminists genuinely believe in what they say and that they genuinely think that the world would be an amazing place if everyone was a feminist. I also genuinely believe that they don't see themselves as hypocrites when they do the exact opposite of what they, as feminists, are "supposed" to do as soon as it benefits them or.	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/10/17 03:10 PM
2	askTRP Megathread October 18 The ones who make it like celebrity makeup artists or whatever are lucky; & few & far inbetween. Personally, i intentionally choose never to bring these people up, because they are so fucking rare yet every idiot thinks that they are special and will be that one, despite doing absolutely nothing to get there.	/r/TheRedPill	19/10/17 04:21 AM
5	askTRP Megathread October 18 Honestly, why do you ask? Do you feel like it plays a relevant and healthy part in your life, or not? Personally, i only use mine for messaging. Haven't posted anything in years and don't keep up with any of the new trends. I'm sure some RedPillers do though.	/r/TheRedPill	18/10/17 08:13 PM
7	askTRP Megathread October 18 This. There are two kinds of workers: Those who's jobs are a hobby, or those who work to support their hobbies. If your hobby isn't profitable, then you need to get a profitable job to support it. And let's face it, "Photography and Filmmaking" is about on the level as a degree in Gender Studies when it comes to making money. You'll spend your life living paycheck-to-paycheck, at best, if you try to make a living from that. If you think there is way too much coding and too little design, that pr…	/r/TheRedPill	18/10/17 08:08 PM
2	Young men are increasingly having trouble with self worth and need serious guidance I have a lot of experience. Probably more than even many of the successful RedPillers. I'm not here because i need help in any way. I'm here to help out. change the neural pathways And that is one of the things i don't like about this place. The psuedoscience and embroidering. But i'm also not in the least interested in arguing about it. If you want to talk like that, do it. I just ignore it, and will keep doing so.	/r/TheRedPill	18/10/17 05:49 AM

31	Young men are increasingly having trouble with self worth and need serious guidance I was "Converted" by PurplePillDebate, and the ever-increasing tidal wave ofanti-male shit spewed on the internet. PPD is good because it offers nuance and a chance to discuss it, under at least the appearance of a truce between the sides. I used to laugh at this sub, and while i still disagree with a lot of things around here, i now participate here because i see the value in an actual male-space, in a world where masculinity is chipped away on every single day. So many guys are completely lost…	/r/TheRedPill	17/10/17 06:30 AM
1	Putting in any effort at all places you ahead of 80% of men. And i'm sure the other 80% had some great excuses as well, and told themselves that they were just a temporarily poor, or fat, or worthless. Everybody thinks that they are special, and everybody thinks that their excuses are so much more righteous than others. But life is a competition, and i assure you that the people you're competing with are not sitting at home and bemoaning themselves on the internet. You're right, sometimes you get sick, or injured, or whatever and get temporarily put out. …	/r/TheRedPill	16/10/17 06:28 PM

3	It starts today. My personality just doesn't work with small changes I literally just told you that you're not special. And given how you've apparently failed heavily in life, isn't it fairly accurate to assume that you're NOT what you think you are, and your personality clearly doesn't work the way you think it does. Because if it did, you wouldn't be a beta. I procrastinate HEAVILY Everybody does. Or, at least, everybody wants to do it. it's just about building that discipline.

3	It starts today. Yep. You start with one thing, and you do it for a few weeks/months. And then when you feel, "Man, i can do more" that is when you add on more.

You know, just like the other 50 million who try to do this every single new-years eve, or 25 000 posts about this on other self-improvement subs.

3	Ten rules I follow that improve my interactions with others and gain respect. I agree with everything, but i think that point 5 deserves the same kind of elaboration as 8 and 9. It all depends on the delivery. Owning up to your mistakes is not a bad thing. But you shouldn't roll around in the mud screaming that you're worthless. A simple "Sorry, my bad. It wont happen again" will almost always deflate the situation and can be done without losing frame.	/r/TheRedPill	15/10/17 08:04 AM
8	Putting in any effort at all places you ahead of 80% of men. I'm sure that the other 80% have some really enticing and nice excuses as well. Excuses are really comfy, aren't they? I'll think about you having them when i'm biking through the rain to an almost empty gym. If you don't talk about TRP, why do the people on your social media show "concern" for you, and why the fuck do you care about them in the first place?	/r/TheRedPill	15/10/17 06:36 AM

Imo, getting laid should be a consequence of self-improvement, not the purpose. However, you also gotta understand that such a thing is easy for those of us who didn't struggle with dating to say. It's a bit like a rich dude saying that money isn't everything. He's right, but it's a hell of a lot easier to not care about it when you actually have it.
