1	There is no blue pill ideology I've seen that subreddit. It doesn't look like very many people post there. Not that there's much reason to. At least in the movie, the blue pillers weren't even aware that they were blue pill.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 06:02 PM
1	There is no blue pill ideology True, although you can find that with anything. Two Christians might disagree vehemently about a point of theology. It happens.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 05:17 PM
1	There is no blue pill ideology An ideology might refer to a set of beliefs that some people share, but that doesn't mean they can't also be different or hold different beliefs in other areas.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 04:21 PM
3	There is no blue pill ideology Well, that's how it was in the movie, except for those who took the red pill. "Blue pill" becomes analogous to what some people used to call the "sheeple," the "Great Unwashed," or just the "masses" of people who conform and do what they're told and believe everything the media and political establishment tell them to believe. There's still an ideological component to it, yet they may not be consciously aware of it because (in their mind) "that's what everyone believes."	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 04:09 PM
5	There is no blue pill ideology I think it's pretty obvious, don't you? But okay, if you insist upon details, consider the major topics and issues of today, and compare mainstream public opinion of today with mainstream public opinion from 100 years ago. Specifically issues related to the topics of this subreddit, such as sex and gender issues. Can you compare and contrast the differences? If so, then you can identify what the blue pill believes. There have been definitely ideological changes in our society, and the concept of…	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 03:13 PM
3	There is no blue pill ideology It's all subjective, though. It's in the realm of opinion, so there is no "right" or "wrong" here.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 03:03 PM
4	There is no blue pill ideology I look at it this way: Blue Pill = "Politically Correct" Red Pill = "Politically Incorrect" Some might define "political correctness" as an active form of manipulation to change and mold people's perceptions about reality (using tactics similar to that of the Asch Conformity Experiments). In that way, it would fit the description of "the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth." But there's most definitely an ideological component to it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/03/26 02:48 PM
1	It's not going to get better True, the loss of institutional and technical knowledge is a possibility, which was a key reason why many people opposed outsourcing and transferring industries and production facilities overseas. As long as there are jobs and incentives to learn the technical skills required to sustain automation, the energy grid, and key industries, then there will be people to learn and pass on such knowledge. But if we make the same mistakes that Spain did in the 16th century, then we may find ourselves in a…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/11/25 12:18 AM
7	It's not going to get better Birth rates may be declining, although the world population is still expected to increase. I don't think we're any danger of running out of people anytime soon. The world currently has over 8 billion humans. If the population was reduced to less than 10% of that, then we'd be at the same level we were in 1700. Still enough people for our species to survive. Moreover, automation and AI are making it possible so that fewer workers are actually needed as much as in the past. A smaller population co…	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/11/25 10:57 AM
5	What do men mean when they say women's standards are too high What do men mean when they say women's standards are too high I'm not sure many men think women's standards are "too high," per se - although there are certainly some who think that. I think what men might be more inclined to reject is the idea that there's actually some logic or objective rationale to women's standards when there really isn't one. There really isn't any logic to men's standards either, but that's never been any great secret.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/25 02:12 PM
1	The idea that sexually successful men don't share our complaints about modern dating is a complete fantasy. I agree. I guess it really depends on how far one takes it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/10/25 02:58 PM
3	The idea that sexually successful men don't share our complaints about modern dating is a complete fantasy. You’re so close to reaching the point yet so far at the same time. The people who say you struggle at dating because of your own issues often make it clear that it isn’t because you’re not a “high value male” and yeah, its known amongst the people making these critiques that “chad” types aren’t inherently successful. Perhaps, although I took the OP's point as meaning that one can find similar perceptions about women among men overall, both "chad" types and those who aren't quite so successful in…	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/10/25 01:54 PM
6	A man’s ability to attract women has nothing to do with whether or not he’s a good person Given that a major doctrinal point in the mainstream (as in, the secular liberal societies of most euro-Atlantic democracies) schools of thought is that genuine moral virtues are wholly independent of worldly result (nor should there be any expectations/entitlement of such), you don't have the gotcha that you think you do. I have trouble believing this to be true, given the vast amount of moralizing and sanctimony which exists in the political cultures of most liberal Western nations nowadays. D…	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/09/25 12:06 AM
1	There actually are government mandated solutions to dating One of the problems with government-mandated anything, no matter how well-intentioned it might be, is that it just adds more bureaucracy and apparatus to the government. The government is basically a large machine, and the more tasks it is given, the more gadgets and gizmos have to be added - which can also increase its overall power. Imagine what could happen if ever we get some real nimrod in the White House in direct command and control of that entire huge powerful apparatus. That could be ba…	/r/PurplePillDebate	23/09/25 02:52 AM
-2	Titanic is not a romantic movie, it's a movie bout a 304. As I recall, when the movie came out, all the women were gushing and swooning over the actor who played the broke guy. Now they all hate him.	/r/PurplePillDebate	13/09/25 02:35 AM
1	Should guys feel bad about being bad boys if women want that of them? It's probably somewhere in between. A lot of boys might start out good, but then become bad slowly as they reach their teen years. They may not consciously choose it, but it may be due to cultural influences, peer pressures, upbringing, etc. They don't really want to be "bad," but they want to be "cool" (which might be equated with "bad" by some). I sense that most men grow out of their "bad boy" phase as they mature into adulthood, although I guess it might vary by degree. Some might not ever m…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/09/25 02:38 AM
1	What’s the point of all the gender whining? Yeah, I can see your point, although "whining" seems to suggest that whatever problem someone might be complaining about is being dismissed as petty, frivolous, insignificant, or unimportant.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/09/25 12:52 AM
6	What’s the point of all the gender whining? So what’s the point of the whining? There's a lot of complaining and dissent that goes on in this world. To pejoratively dismiss people's concerns as "whining" may seem clever to you, but keep in mind that there may be some issues you care about someday. Someone may dismiss your concerns as merely "whining."	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/09/25 12:55 PM
1	Do you agree with Iliza Schlesinger's take on hateful undesirable saying that it's "natural selection"? In a way. It's nationalism, tribalism, fascism. Social Darwinism with the core principle being that "only the strong shall survive." At their core, fascists are following the laws of nature, the law of the jungle. So, I guess the point here is, be careful what you wish for.	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/09/25 04:34 AM
1	Do you agree with Iliza Schlesinger's take on hateful undesirable saying that it's "natural selection"? "The State is not an Academy of Arts. If it neglects its strength in order to promote the idealistic aspirations of man, it repudiates its own nature and perishes." "The features of history are virile, unsuited to sentimental or feminine natures. Brave peoples alone have an existence, an evolution or a future ; the weak and cowardly perish, and perish justly. The grandeur of history lies in the perpetual conflict of nations, and it is simply foolish to desire the suppression of their rivalry. Ma…	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/09/25 12:33 AM
1	Do you agree with Iliza Schlesinger's take on hateful undesirable saying that it's "natural selection"? Exactly. Those who play the "natural law" or "human nature" card don't realize the fire they're playing with. It's the very core of fascism.	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/09/25 01:01 PM
6	As a person with daddy issues, I feel kinda offended by the daddy issues stereotype in women. I think it's relatively common that a lot of people have issues and lingering problems with their parents and how they were raised. I agree that it's insensitive and somewhat uncalled for when people speak derisively about "daddy issues" or "mommy issues," as if they're talking about a skinned knee. So, I'm with you there. I know myself that the pain runs deep and the damage is long term. Some people are just jerks, and they get even more so when they're posting on the internet. My own parents w…	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/08/25 01:50 PM
1	If a vast majority of men got laid easily, the United States would be a quasi socialist country right now Finland was neutral during the Cold War, yet still free and democratic like the other nations of Western Europe. Switzerland and Sweden are examples which were similar. I remember taking a train from Finland into the USSR. While in Finland, we could still get Western news, Western media, use money from Western countries - along with first-class hotels, modern luxuries. But then, once we crossed the border, the change was noticeable. Western media was outlawed. That's why I would consider Finland…	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/07/25 11:32 AM
3	The main people mentioning women’s intuition are men who victim blame women. Guys here couldn’t even tell me what this guy did wrong and why most women popped their balloons. I'll admit that I didn't understand the context, but from what I could tell, he destroyed someone else's property. If someone is holding something in their hand, it could be considered assault to knock it out of their hand (although I don't know the exact law on that). So, those are things that he did wrong, at least based on what was presented in the video without any other context.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/07/25 02:34 PM
1	Women are doing traditional gender roles-- and often male ones too Meanwhile, the traditional male role of "protector and provider" seems much more variable. Plenty of men simply opt out. That variability is rarely acknowledged in these conversations. Instead, it’s often framed as if women have abandoned gender roles, while men are trapped in theirs. But from where I sit, women are carrying both loads — and men are the ones with the wider behavioral range. I think it might vary from family to family. I was raised mainly by my father, and most fathers I'm acquai…	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/07/25 03:14 PM
2	The market depicts your value, not you There are some pitfalls even in free market economics. Not so much with the possibility of collusion and monopoly power (although that should be guarded against), but it's more the low-level "market mischief," such as snake oil salesmen, dishonest hucksters, and generally the kinds of people to watch out for. They're usually non-violent and won't overtly violate laws of civil order - and smart people know enough to generally avoid those types. So, all in all, they exist, but are avoidable, and a…	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 03:33 PM
–	Conservatives dont have media literacy You may have a point, although it's often hard to tell which ones are liberal and which are conservative. If one examines the content of the top-rated films, one might discern some degree of the artists' political views. Especially when it comes to war dramas, cop shows, Mob movies - it can sometimes portray positively certain aspects of war-making and overzealous law enforcement, which are oftentimes associated with the right wing more than the left.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 02:40 PM
3	The market depicts your value, not you You make some good points about market economics and how value is determined, although the market is never really totally free or unregulated. In the job market, there is a minimum wage - and many people advocate for a living wage. Wages can also be undercut by outsourcing and the availability of cheap labor overseas. Along the same lines, there are those who argue that the market can work just fine, as long as it remains free, unfettered, and with minimal government regulation (if any). Would t…	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 01:49 PM
–	Conservatives dont have media literacy Wrong because most of hollywood and artists are liberal. I think Hollywood and its artists are beholden to monied, corporate interests who are more interested in the bottom line than politics.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 01:23 PM
1	[Q4RP]: Why haven't you joined a more conservative community? Heresy is in the eye of the beholder.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 01:07 PM
1	Do you think the "free love" movement would have kept going if STDs were not a risk? I agree, I think conservatism made a comeback with Reagan's meteoric rise, along with the Moral Majority and other elements of the Christian Right. Although I think a lot of that involved a great deal of hypocrisy, as they seemed far more interested in projecting a pure and wholesome "image" - regardless of whatever they were doing behind closed doors.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/25 12:59 PM
2	You cannot tweak culture and society a little bit and suddenly the dating market is balanced out Mean girls are gonna be mean. Just as boys will be boys, right? P.S. Who mocks somebody just for yawning? That doesn't sound like mean girls, but it sounds like people who are totally whacko.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/07/25 01:49 PM
1	What Cheating Statistics Tell Us About Relationships At least 50%–70% of people who are cheated on never find out. I think that's why they call it cheating, since they're not supposed to find out. The tax cheat doesn't want the government to find out, and the card cheat doesn't want their opponents to find out. There are consequences for getting caught, some more severe than others.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/07/25 03:56 PM
2	Men cannot complain their way to sex and relationships Complaining can have mixed results. I've heard that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, although that's not always the case. I think complaining is society's favorite pastime. We have complainers, along with people who complain about the complainers. People complain about the weather, but they never do anything about it. I imagine more than a few out there are complaining because today is Monday. In societies with freedom of speech, people are allowed to complain to their heart's content, but no …	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/06/25 02:31 PM
1	Political views are a mirror of one’s values and that’s why they matter I can see your point about conflicting moral values being difficult to form positive relationships. On the other hand, if someone gets suckered into the current political schisms and allows themselves to become a dupe or a pawn, then I would find it difficult to respect such a person. I respect free thinkers and people who have enough intellectual flexibility to see things beyond the simple black-and-white, right-vs-left way of thinking. Intolerance just breeds more intolerance.	/r/PurplePillDebate	28/06/25 01:44 AM
1	No, Empire X did not collapse because of degeneracy/non-monogamy/whatever dating problems I'm genuinely going to crash out if more people keep on making this terrible argument. Do many people make this particular argument? I've heard various people speak of the impending fall of the American "empire," oftentimes comparing us to ancient Rome, which has been perceived as being full of vice and licentious behavior - a den of iniquity. Pat Robertson used to go on about how God was punishing us, implying that America was doomed unless we shaped up and changed our sinful ways. That's the s…	/r/PurplePillDebate	28/06/25 01:32 AM
1	If I could guarantee you that 1 out of every 40 guys you approach is your ideal man, would you start cold approaching? Why or why not? Would a woman kiss 40 frogs if there was a guarantee that one of them would turn into a handsome prince?	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/06/25 02:56 PM
5	Men with real problems need to stop looking to grifters and women to solve them I'm not much of a believer myself, at least not since I was a kid, so I never felt that religion was much of an answer. There's a lot of corruption and grifting going on in religion, too.	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/06/25 01:40 PM
6	The internet has enabled men to listen in on female spaces, and men don't like what they hear The internet has certainly been a major game-changer, although that's part of the issue. If all one knows of a person is a few snippets or soundbites from the internet, then one won't really know the whole person and how they really are. It's different if you hear it in real life situations in groups of women you know personally. Someone that one knows and sees on a day-to-day basis might blurt out some obnoxious shit on occasion, but it's different if you know who that person is and how they re…	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/06/25 01:24 PM
4	Men with real problems need to stop looking to grifters and women to solve them Some might even view therapy as a form of grifting. Of course, people can always join a church and get religious counseling. I remember when there was a minor brief societal scare about troubled youth joining religious cults, while there were people offering their services to parents who wanted to "deprogram" their children from the cult.	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/06/25 12:52 PM
2	Can you call yourself intelligent if you can’t deduce, breakdown, and understand interpersonal dynamics? I think they deserve their FAFO moments and to be called silly or unintelligent if they’re boasting being superiorly smarter than others while being clearly inferior in integral areas. Sure, I can see that, too. Everyone on the internet thinks they're smart.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/06/25 03:32 PM
2	Can you call yourself intelligent if you can’t deduce, breakdown, and understand interpersonal dynamics? That's a shame.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/06/25 03:26 PM
2	Can you call yourself intelligent if you can’t deduce, breakdown, and understand interpersonal dynamics? Sure, I can see your point here. But as you say, there still needs practice, familiarity, and study, which has to be learned. Back in the day, people used to read books like "How to win friends and influence people," but now, I guess they get their (mis)information from the internet. More is the pity. Still, I don't think it's that people are stupid or unintelligent, just misguided. Or in some cases (as I've noticed around here), some might just be incredibly pissed off and don't seem to care wh…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/06/25 03:14 PM
2	Can you call yourself intelligent if you can’t deduce, breakdown, and understand interpersonal dynamics? Some things you're born with, some things have to be learned. Understanding social cues is more a matter of understanding a given culture or sub-culture. It has nothing to do with intelligence or potential.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/06/25 12:44 PM
2	Can you call yourself intelligent if you can’t deduce, breakdown, and understand interpersonal dynamics? What you're talking about is cultural competency, not raw intelligence. It's like you're saying someone whose first language is not English can't possibly be intelligent because they speak with an accent or less fluency than a native speaker.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/06/25 12:12 PM
1	The biggest problem in dating is not dating apps or generalizations, it’s that bad men get with good women and bad women get with good men. These narratives will have a bigger impact on society if unchecked by better, factual information, and threaten to spread to gullible minds accordinly. This is an interesting perception, and I've heard others express this view as well. I've seen it in other political and social contexts as well, where there seems to be many with a need to challenge or correct other people's beliefs or behaviors that they consider wrong or misguided. There seems to be an implied belief that if no one challenges s…	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/06/25 11:50 AM
4	Parents staying together “for the sake of the child” is usually worse than just getting a divorce I've heard it said that it's better to come from a broken home than to live in one. The trouble with that line of thought is that it's not really the home that's broken, but the parents. And oftentimes, chaos is created in the child's life, as it might mean moving from a nice suburban home into a crappy apartment on the bad side of town. It can also mean having to change schools. Also, the problems affecting the parents don't suddenly go away once they're divorced. They could even get worse, and…	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/06/25 12:51 AM
1	What are your thoughts on the toxic narratives around men opening up to women? To quote Ace Rothstein (Robert De Niro) in "Casino": All you do is give me answers. Just give me the right answer.	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/06/25 12:18 AM
2	You Can’t "Prove" the Red Pill And That’s Not a Flaw I've always tended to view Red Pill and other aspects of the manosphere as latter-day reactions against the liberal/progressive politics which came out of the Civil Rights era. They embrace a good deal of politically incorrect language which seems calculated to anger liberals and other adherents of political correctness. It has a degree of shock value and gets people's attention.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/25 12:50 PM
2	Most People Don’t Actually Know What the Red Pill Means Like most people who saw The Matrix, I first understood "Red Pill" within the context of the story. Take the Blue Pill and stay in the dreamland of the Matrix, while the Red Pill wakes you up from the dream and shows you the cold, harsh reality of the real world. At least I understood it on that basis. To be candid, when I first saw it applied in the current context, I thought it was a bit cheesy that someone would have borrowed a term from a movie to describe their perceptions and modes of thin…	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/06/25 12:51 PM
1	It's not offensive to ask for dna test Some people are offended whenever the Walmart greeter asks to see their receipt as they're leaving the store. Or whenever they're asked to see their ID in any number of public situations. ("Your papers, please?") I've grown used to it myself. You can't expect anyone to take your word for it in this day and age.	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/06/25 12:10 PM
10	Why Do Unsuccessful Men on this Sub Focus So Much On Women They Don’t Want To Date? It’s like “Sour Grapes: the Sub” around here. I've kinda noticed that myself. I'm not sure what there is to actually debate around here. It seems that there must be some profound philosophical differences between those who identify as blue pill v. red pill v. whatever other pills there are out there. Why don't people debate about that? Instead, as you say, it seems like a lot of sour grapes.	/r/PurplePillDebate	05/06/25 01:32 PM
2	People who are unsuccessful at dating should learn to accept it, and be mature enough to not wrongly blame anybody but themselves I have seen an awful lot of posts and comments over the years on here essentially saying that those who are unsuccessful in dating, predominantly men, should be catered to and appeased by those who don't want to date them. I think that acceptance is good advice for a lot of different issues people have. Where I would take issue is that I'm not sure if anyone is literally asking to be appeased or catered to, nor do I interpret such posts as making any overt claim of entitlement to anything. I thi…	/r/PurplePillDebate	05/06/25 01:31 AM
–	American men are becoming disinterested I don't know how true it is that men are interested in nothing at all, though I have noticed a certain degree of apathy overall. You mention that women are drinking more, doing more drugs, and have a greater interest in sports and entertainment, while men are becoming more ascetic, taking cold showers, and living like monks?	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/06/25 01:16 AM

1	A genuine question for women who believe most men are misogynistic or harmful It depends on how it's expressed. If you're saying that it's okay to lump all black people into a group called "oppressed" and all white people into a group called "oppressor," then you're essentially giving validation to the thought processes in question.	/r/PurplePillDebate	01/06/25 01:10 PM
1	CMV: Inspired by western women, many men have embraced gender-based victimhood complexes I can see how some might view it cynically, and perhaps there were some ulterior motives behind it. But many also saw it as the right thing to do for its own sake.	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/05/25 02:02 AM
3	CMV: Inspired by western women, many men have embraced gender-based victimhood complexes culture of victimhood This seems a broader topic, as one can discern that, at least since WW2, the Western liberal democracies have made a noticeable effort to change their previously malignant policies and kind of atone for their historical sins. The colonial powers started freeing their colonies, and countries such as the U.S. ended institutional racism and sexism by the 1960s. The victims of such abuses and injustices had their voices heard loud and clear, while the oppressors were challenged…	/r/PurplePillDebate	29/05/25 02:05 PM
13	It's very dangerous seeing all these female dating experts using male loneliness as a way to bash men when there's literally no co-relation that lonely man=bad men. Men who commit suicide are particularly seek help and reports even suggest that 80% of them sought professional help. Why aren't we questioning the institutions? Why are they failing to address the issue. Mental health services have typically been a low priority in our culture. There are limits as to what they can actually do.	/r/PurplePillDebate	28/05/25 01:54 PM
2	Anyone over 23 shouldn't be dating 18yr olds Used almost exclusively by men trying to defend sexually harassing young women. I've never seen it used to defend sexual harassment, and besides, that doesn't even make any sense. Following the "half your age plus seven" rule would preclude any man over the age of 22 trying to pick up an 18-year-old woman. That's what the OP was advocating, so why do you have a problem with that?	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 11:59 PM
2	Anyone over 23 shouldn't be dating 18yr olds I wasn't really taking it all that seriously. It's just standard homespun folk wisdom which somehow catches on in the culture and gets repeated in discussions like this one. You haven't even explained exactly what's wrong with the quote, in and of itself. You called it "horseshit," yet your only support is to cite horrific events which occurred concurrent to the time it was first written. That doesn't really explain anything.	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 03:34 PM
7	Six figures isn’t really that unreasonable Is six figures really that unreasonable of an ask? I can't say if it's unreasonable, but as you mentioned, only 20% of Americans have six-figure salaries, which means that 80% do not. Not to mention how it compares with most of the rest of the world which lives in abject poverty. So, it looks like the odds are somewhat slim.	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 03:28 PM
1	Anyone over 23 shouldn't be dating 18yr olds Thank you for the history lesson. I knew all of these things, although I didn't know the original source of the "half your age plus 7 rule." I actually thought it was Dear Abby who came up with that.	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 03:11 PM
2	Anyone over 23 shouldn't be dating 18yr olds I've heard it expressed a number of times as a rule of thumb that some people might observe. It's not like it has any official legal weight or anything like that. But if it did, no one would be able to date or marry any 7-year-olds, except maybe a 1-year-old. And as mentioned here, if following this rule, no one over the age of 23 would marry/date an 18-year-old.	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 03:00 PM
1	Anyone over 23 shouldn't be dating 18yr olds Yes, that makes sense. Half your age plus seven is the standard rule. Of course, it carries no legal weight. The OP's proposal has no chance of being enacted into law.	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/05/25 02:19 PM
–	Woke isn't coming back I think what many regard as "woke" once started out as grass-roots ideas which helped form the civil rights movement. But as that movement gained popularity and public support, it became more politically expedient for the corporate and other establishment-level entities to create a public image which turned out to be some kind of bizarre distortion of the original ideals. Corporatized "woke" is like a bad Hollywood remake. It doesn't mean the ideas themselves are/were bad, but in the end, they w…	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/05/25 03:31 PM
1	Is there a theoretical threshold where you would start feeling sorry for men for their position in online dating? I don't know if it's really a matter of "feeling sorry" for people for whatever malady or misfortune they happen to be experiencing. Sure, there's plenty who might feel sympathy or pity for others, but there might also be practical reasons for looking at any sociological phenomenon which could affect the overall well-being of society. Whether or not the issue of men having trouble with online dating or other related issues breaks a certain threshold to consider it a societal problem to worry abo…	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/05/25 03:00 PM
2	Telling people who have failed at, or had trauma due to dating, to just act “normal” like they haven’t had trauma or experienced failure, is NOT going to help "Go to therapy" is seen as toxic advice by the red pill community. But in most cases, where guys' esteem is (understandably) at rock bottom, it's valid. "Just be normal" is pretty crappy advice by itself. But learning to cope with rejection - which is what it usually stands for - is the right advice. The problem with most of these kinds of advice is that they mostly consist of vague suggestions towards some kind of action, without really explaining why or providing any useful information. This e…	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/05/25 02:25 PM
–	Women hold onto the concept of male privilege because they are deeply attached to feeling lesser than men. Women want equality. They do not want to be treated as less than or as subservient. Do all women want that?	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/05/25 01:26 PM
–	If dating dynamics were changed, women would not use the same arguments It seems that, overall, you're arguing that our society and culture can be too callous and indifferent, where there's not enough empathy or compassion for those who might be suffering hardship or pain - whether they're homeless or hungry or struggling in other ways. I can understand that. A lot of people simply don't care about much of anything or anyone. In fact, there are some people who seem to make a point of proclaiming far and wide how much they don't care. But, perhaps as a matter of good…	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/05/25 02:47 PM
1	Women are emotional geniuses—and most men are stuck pretending not to feel TL;DR: Women are emotionally ahead of most men—not because they’re manipulative in a cruel way, but because they’ve had to be. Meanwhile, many men are emotionally dishonest, hiding heartbreak behind fake confidence and meaningless sex. The real tragedy is how men lie to themselves and each other, turning pain into performance instead of healing. It may also be the case where men been that way because "they've had to be," since that's what is expected of them. I'm old enough to remember back duri…	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/05/25 03:31 PM

1	Competent women = Masculine bruh what And those are the ones who typically make poor leaders. They like the power and prestige, but they can't handle the responsibility.	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/05/25 12:41 AM
3	Competent women = Masculine bruh what Like men can you just be honest about 1 thing though, can yall just admit that you don't really give sh*t what women do as long is it benefits your selfish asses? Like am I wrong? I think men might be kind of a mixed bag where some might be okay with women who become leaders, while others might not be. One thing about being a leader, though, is that leaders become good leaders not because they want the job, but because it's thrust upon them. When the subject of women leaders comes up, it often g…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/05/25 03:03 PM
–	If women want to avoid being put in the "hookup only" zone, they should be honest up front early on. so how good are you at vetting for scammers and thieves? con artists exist ya know.
