| 3 | Do men dislike being approached by women romantically or is that just a myth?Approached through like social circles? I guess the girl's more forward, and wants a relationship. Approached out at a bar or in public? Don't know, I've rarely gone to bars, and in public, everyone's pretty self-contained. I don't know if I dislike it overall, but when I was younger, I did feel awkward being approached by girls through social circles, but I felt nervous and awkward being approached most of the time. I was generally awkward. Neuroticism is a bitch. Don't know if other guys like … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/20 01:21 PM |
| 1 | Why should women even bother to enter monogamous relationships with the average man anymore?Why should they? It's up to them. If they're happy and not harming anyone, it's all good. To them, maybe the "average man" isn't average, people are different. It's subjective. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/20 01:14 PM |
| 1 | Every attractive young woman will have an OnlyFans account by 2030 and be entirely undateableDoubt it. That seems more a personality type than anything. It's bizarre stuff though, but that seems to be par for the course nowadays lol. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/20 01:03 PM |
| 1 | Cobra Kai, as an Allegory for TRPBecause it posits something that may or may not be true (a decline) to justify spinning plates and dread game. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/20 10:18 PM |
| 2 | Cobra Kai, as an Allegory for TRPSociety is an enormous, complex vacuum. That's why it's it's own can of worms. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/20 07:35 PM |
| 1 | Cobra Kai, as an Allegory for TRPYes there are more pressing problems, but that doesn't mean RP isn't nontrivial, since we're here in PPD. 'Minor' is debateable; statistically, maybe. But for the people getting trapped on the other end, it's not minor. The behavior is rewarded by rp itself because the rp ethos espouses its desire to 'enjoy the decline' is more important than someone else's well-being, and so it rewards itself in the only way it thinks it can be rewarded: through dread game, spinning plates, etc. Society may be … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/20 04:52 PM |
| 2 | Cobra Kai, as an Allegory for TRPRP doesn't encourage physical violence, true. But what do you think of concepts like 'dread game' and 'enjoy the decline'? And although not all rpers will go that far, the fact these sorts of concepts are in their literature is smelly. And AWALT, too? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/20 04:25 PM |
| 1 | Why exactly do so many people have an issue with FDS?It's the relationship version of RP, but it's not as extreme and isn't in the 'dark enlightenment' bend. They seem hurt, and are full of anger, and it isn't pretty, but it's understandable. What's my issue with it? It's just a mess, pretty much like the rest of the pillsphere, just not as extreme ideologically as rp/blackpill. And that mess bleeds into other places and causes the mess to spread, even if it's not meant to. And stuff like scrotes is sort of tasteless. Just like 'plates' is tastele… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/20 04:02 PM |
| 2 | Do most men find that a friendship with a woman is pointless?Nope. I always enjoyed whatever friendships I had with girls. But I was a mess and let them fade away or pushed them away, along with male friendships. But that's another story. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 04:55 PM |
| 1 | Most all men aren’t ugly. It’s almost always your personality.Yeah I figured some (or most) are just looking for an explanation after a particularly bad bout of relationship stuff of why it's happening and what not. The problem is the ideas of the ideologies themselves. Sure you can approach it with a healthy mind - after the fact, with some detachment. During? I don't think those sorts of ideas - like dread game - should be passed around, even if someone's just looking for a stopgap explanation or way of life. Whatever you can get from it that's positive … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 04:46 PM |
| 2 | Most all men aren’t ugly. It’s almost always your personality.It's discordant, and upholds dark triad traits as something to aspire to. Dread game, plate spinning, 'enjoy the decline', etc. type of rhetoric is a dark tunnel to go down. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 03:08 PM |
| 4 | [Q4Women] Among those of you who have kids (or want some in the future), would you object to your son regularly visiting/dating prostitutes?Prostitution has an added reputation of being illegal (depending on where you live), immoral, transactional and non-traditional, connected to all sorts of other crime-related acitivities, etc. It doesn't make their daughters sleeping around better; prostitution is just that much worse. It makes sense it'd be more shocking. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 03:00 PM |
| 0 | Most all men aren’t ugly. It’s almost always your personality.A lot of guys find women to date, marry, etc. Looks aren't the issue for finding relationships for most guys. They'll probably find them through social circles or whatever. The guys who fall through the cracks for whatever reasons and care to get out of the cracks might need some help, and I don't think rp is the answer (yeah, casual stuff is rp's thing, but it's still related). I fell through the cracks, but did have opportunities, but anxiety and whatnot stopped any positive momentum from happ… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 02:51 PM |
| 2 | Most all men aren’t ugly. It’s almost always your personality.Either that, or change where you go until your personality wins someone over. Then you don't have to change your personality. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 02:48 PM |
| 3 | [Q4Women] Among those of you who have kids (or want some in the future), would you object to your son regularly visiting/dating prostitutes?I'm a guy. I still think mothers would be shocked even if they heard their daughters were like that in college. Especially mothers who are traditional. Even if they approved in theory, in reality they might think otherwise. Prostitution might be even a worse culture shock for all mothers. Again, in theory they may not care, but the reality might be a culture shock and a rude awakening. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 01:46 PM |
| 1 | These "Strategies" and "Pills" need to stop because they will turn people into abusersThe reactions are louder from FDSers in a sense - more angry, but the ideologies of rp and blackpill are more extreme in their scope; the generalizations, the strategizing, all of that. FDS is like the relationship version of RP, but still not as extreme. Memes like scrotes are stupid and demeaning. Some FDSers do stretch it and seem to be on the war path, but even they never ideologically transgress into the territory rp does, nor blackpill. Those two are entrenched in the reactionary 'dark enl… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 01:14 PM |
| 2 | Date bills should always be split equallyIdeally, maybe. In reality, I don't mind paying the bill sometimes. Split bill is okay. Guilting people into paying the bill is low. Sometimes it's just easier to pay the bill and there's no issue. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 01:09 PM |
| 2 | These "Strategies" and "Pills" need to stop because they will turn people into abusersThe pillsphere is a mess. FDS, RP, blackpill, etc. ideologies are just bits of truth with a lot of extremity wrapped around them. FDS is a bit less extreme, and isn't totally brandishing the 'dark enlightenment' banner. But stuff like 'dread game' is pretty messed up. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/09/20 12:51 AM |
| 1 | Online Dating has Changed Approaching and Women's Standards "in Real Life"Huh. Well, I quit online dating about three years ago because it wasn't going anywhere, and I don't think I was using it as best as I could. Online dating was the only time (as a guy) I actually tried to ask women on dates and start convos as a conscious thing. It was nerve wracking. Irl? Only once, and this was after I was told the girl liked me. So for me, it gave me an avenue I otherwise wouldn't pursue consciously. Don't know if that was a good thing in my case since I didn't find a girlfrie… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/20 06:30 PM |
| 1 | Low effort first dates are basedWhen I was active on okc, I set up coffee dates, and almost set up an ice cream date once lol. I heard coffee dates were casual and low-pressure for both, so I went with that. I don't know, I went on very few dates, and always found them awkward. I'm a silly-headed millennial, so that might explain it lol. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/20 06:28 PM |
| 3 | What is the difference between Alpha bucks and Beta bucks?Why do you care if he's "alpha bucks" or not? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/20 05:48 PM |
| 3 | drinking and drug culture IS the casual sex culture in the west...Oh I know. I don't mind the one-on-one quiet pub scenario. I'm just not usually in the mood for even that lol. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/20 02:35 PM |
| 1 | Women Are As Entitled As MenEntitlement is genderless, it's likely upbringing. A lot of people aren't demanding, men or women. PUAs are jumping into the thorn bush, convincing themselves it isn't a thorn bush, then complaining they got prickled a lot. It's self-fulfilling. No one asked the PUAs to "prize" drunk women at ye old club. They just do; hence the thorn bush. It's all sorts of mixed up. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/20 02:32 PM |
| 1 | What do most of you do on dates that requires planning?When I did go on dates, it was just coffee. Anxiety/nervousness was enough to deal with without having to worry about planning something more. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/20 02:04 PM |
| 1 | drinking and drug culture IS the casual sex culture in the west...Eh. Really, I was never really a partier to begin with. I did a little, but it just couldn't overcome anxiety + laziness. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/20 02:01 PM |
| 1 | "TRP and FDS" Concepts are not new. 1987 Eddie Murphy Raw; Marriage, Men and Women, Cheating. Watch the Clips - Lets discuss.I'm not a woman, lol. The "we" was accidental, I think I meant "they". Didn't even realize it until you mentioned it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/20 06:05 PM |
| 2 | "TRP and FDS" Concepts are not new. 1987 Eddie Murphy Raw; Marriage, Men and Women, Cheating. Watch the Clips - Lets discuss.Some do. Do all of them? What about sub-cultural dynamics? Some prefer laxer partners and pursue them. Some don't care about aggression, or options, as in, it's not even conceived of to them. It's a mix. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/20 05:47 PM |
| 2 | Why does everyone think men are "naturally" thirstier than women?I wrote something earlier, thinking the view was men are thirsty, not thirstier than women. Rethinking it, I think that maybe the who's (gender) is thirstier isn't as relevant as subcultural stuff. Both genders in total, across all demographics, are probably similarly thirsty - not very. But then certain subcultures in which this "thirst" is demonstrated most is more revealing, and yeah gender could still have a bit of an effect. So men are thirstier then women, but some men are much thirstier t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/20 05:15 PM |

| 0 | "TRP and FDS" Concepts are not new. 1987 Eddie Murphy Raw; Marriage, Men and Women, Cheating. Watch the Clips - Lets discuss.Yeah, probably. Both groups are hurting, although RP seems more extreme in it's ideologizing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/20 03:37 PM |
| 9 | "TRP and FDS" Concepts are not new. 1987 Eddie Murphy Raw; Marriage, Men and Women, Cheating. Watch the Clips - Lets discuss.FDS is a reaction to "the cross section of men we encountered and dated that weren't loyal". That's why it's a niche sub. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/20 03:23 PM |
| 1 | 30 is NOT the new 20- why do people over 25 think being emotionally stunted and/ or immature while dating is ok? *messed up the post title*Some people are conflicted, I think. They want conventional maturity but also a more laissez faire situation - not a free-for-all, but flexibility. Some it's just different priorities, and we don't all desire to have a house/car/etc. It's a mindset thing. Although, large age gap (like decades) kind of relationships do seem to smell a little funky at first, I can see that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/08/20 09:48 PM |
| 1 | Is everyone a dick to each other because nobody wants to be taken advantage of?Yeah not all men act mean. Nor do all women act cold. I don't know, a lot of people don't come across as that way to me. Maybe they aren't gushing with happiness out in public, perhaps more reticent, but mean/cold? Eh, don't see it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/08/20 09:41 PM |
| 0 | 20 is not the new 30- why do people think being emotionally stunted/immature while dating as an adult ok?I don't know, relationships with really large gaps are suspicious, and smell a little funky, a little bit. But if you don't have much in common with your age bracket, see no real need to become that model of 'maturity', and aren't struggling financially/emotionally, what's the harm in searching beyond that bracket by a few years? Can't say you (general you; I) will succeed for whatever reasons, but hey, it's not harming anyone. But what do I know? I haven't been on a date close to four years, an… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/08/20 09:28 PM |
