Question For WomenBlerdyBTwitch/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 02:39 PM

In 2026, people, regardless of identity, are avoiding relationships because of their anxiety. People in this subreddit regularly say things about their side that are not gender exclusive 🤷

That movie came out nearly 25 years ago. The core audience was Boomers and maybe early Gen-Xers. It has no influence on today

Women definitely uphold patriarchy, but for you to say that it is enforced and, more importantly, harms equally is a serious misrepresentation of reality, Bro. You can look at the Epstein case and the stuff with the men learning how to 🍇 their partners and film it for online consumption for recent insane examples of what men are doing to women.

He's also a trafficker of women. Conservatives contradict themselves all the time. That always speaks for itself 🤷

I guess what I and possible lurkers are trying to understand is what men you are talking about. If you're talking about Andrew Tate, Fresh and Fit, and Whatever podcast, I really only know that Andrew Tate was a trafficker. I know nothing about the other two brands, and I've never watched any of the content of the aforementioned brands. But RP is so much wider than what you're describing. When I looked up "Why is modern dating so difficult in 2022?" and Google gave me some video recommendations …

To some extent, I do agree that RP content does encourage men to blame women and not level up the way that they need to. At the same time, I disagree with your claim that men want to trade (but I'm sure you meant collect) women like pokémon cards. The main talking points I have heard from that side is that men want to be traditionally monogamous but are accusing women of having too many partners with their their smexual freedom. I think the only person actually talking about/ living a non-monoga…

/r/PurplePillDebate05/06/26 02:20 PM

I would assume something similar to what women ask of men? Check their thoughts, expectations, language, and actions when they're alone or not?
/r/PurplePillDebate02/06/26 12:30 PM

While I agree with you to an extent, it's not so cut and dry. There are plenty of grifters on both sides, as you said. But there are definitely true believers who don't have many followers. Maybe they're trying to get followers and/or looking for a community. But if women can understand the idea of "all men until it's no men", they should understand the anxiety that men have when those true believers are making content and having thousands, tens of thousands - sometimes hundreds of thousands of …

Indeed, progressive men do have less of a voice when trying to talk about how women negatively contribute to dating culture. Bringing back bell hooks on my flair even was and is criticized for being a pick me when she rightfully pointed out that stuff out. To your gender essentialism point, both sides do not want to blame themselves. I've taken a break from Tiktok to pursue other things but I tried to focus my content on occupying a space outside of the manosphere gurus, male panderers, tradwive…

A bit reductive to say that 😆 But of course both sides contribute to why modern dating has been problematic.

Again, there are people who will call themselves feminist and still uphold conservative, patriarchal norms. I put that in my original post.

Like I said, I haven't been in the red pill spaces where men talk about how they shouldn't be faithful but their partner should. If you could point me to what you're talking about, I can get a better sense. The red pill space is not a monolith.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 09:25 PM

Well, I do believe in intersectionality, so I would say those things are related. Like I said, there are a lot of women that believe that just because they lean left, they cannot be conservative on gender and dating norms. This post is meant to challenge that and to further assert that some of those same women who complain about conservative men and the red pill space are actually giving them fuel with their own conservative values and content.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 09:23 PM
1

And like I said, the discourse that I have been talking about comes from self-described conservative AND liberal circles - not necessarily the self-identified left. Your anecdotal experience is valid but so are the experiences of me and other men who have been in left-leaning circles
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 07:18 PM

I do find comments like hers interesting. I'm glad that she's not like the women I described, but her response is similar to how some men will speak on their own personal experiences and viewpoints and women will dismiss them and say they're an outlier. Either we're going to do it for both sides or be hypocrites. I'm glad more men are speaking up in the comments here.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 05:56 PM

That's an interesting take. I guess we have different algorithms/experiences with RP content. From what I've heard in some red pill spaces, men want to be traditionally monogamous but are lamenting that women have explored their smexual freedom so much that THEY cannot be trusted to stay faithful. That's not a position that I hold, for the record.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 05:53 PM

What I am trying to say is that women who identify as liberal can also hold conservative views about dating, masculinity, etc. I put "bell hooks feminist" in my flair because she wrote about this decades ago, and it still holds true today. There are a lot of women who believe that just because they vote Democrat or whatever they are absolved of any criticism of being conservative, which is an incorrect position. Democrats as a party are conservative on a global and, increasingly, national scale.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 05:27 PM

I think both of you all are totally correct. There are definitely men who would claim to be left leaning but still default to women doing traditional roles just like women do with men
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 05:19 PM
2

The thing is I find liberalism to be a conservative position, as I would consider myself left of liberal. Going deeper into my point, there are a lot of women who think that just because they voted for a blue person, they can't hold conservative values, and that's what I am challenging here.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/05/26 05:18 PM

As a leftist man, liberal is conservative-lite to me, so any woman proud of being a lib that is already sus to me 🤷 But the framing of this OP post seems they are right-leaning, which I don't mess with either
/r/PurplePillDebate28/05/26 03:08 PM

As a man, this was rough to read. I hope men don't follow this guy's advice. If you're going your own way, why turn around to think so deeply about being mean to womenm 🤷 Seems like the women who claim to decenter men but they keep making videos, posts and comments about them. Just live your life. If someone you gel with comes along, great. If not, be at peace with it. There are infinite things to do besides occupy your time thinking about how to be mean to the "other side".

People of all ideologies are having dating struggles? Yes, that's not a new revelation. You're moving the goalposts now though. But go off...

Of course there's a clear political leaning for people advocating for those toxic relationships: conservatives and liberals (which I look at as conservative-light), to a lesser extent.

There are plenty of progressive parents out there 🤷 At the end of the day, any relationship is transactional to a degree. But the way it's framed in this original post is too conservative for my liking.
/r/PurplePillDebate26/05/26 07:10 PM

Regardless, it is a conservative approach to relationships, whether you're in the United States or not. I view conservatism as dehumanizing in general
/r/PurplePillDebate26/05/26 07:05 PM

This sounds so conservative. One day, I hope people take a more leftist approach to relationships that isn't so transactional and dehumanizing. (Had to edit the voice texting)

I think you, other men, and a lot of women (to be honest), have a misunderstanding of what feminism actually is and should be. Radical black feminist bell hooks was a prolific writer and philosopher and while she advocated for a feminism, she had a more holistic take on it: holding men accountable for their role in patriarchy but also speaking on how women uphold patriarchy and hurt men too. I recommend anyone concerned about dating, feminism, and what not read The Will to Change. I understand h…
/r/PurplePillDebate26/05/26 02:38 PM

I'm a bell hooks reading leftist and while I understand the systemic issues that affect women as best as I can as a man, I understand and have made videos about women upholding patriarchy, capitalism, and racism in some ways which have hurt dating culture. A lot of progressive men and women know that too 🤷 But the pitfalls of the conservative red pill narrative is solely blaming women for their dating woes as opposed to understanding how the aforementioned systemic forces have made life worse fo…

It's pretty wild that men on this subreddit rightfully lament that women don't care that men are sad but then attack one of the biggest influential feminists who echoed that sentiment and has a better chance of reaching women. The book is her acknowledging the pain that a lot of women have but asking them to understand the pain that men go through as well. I don't understand why y'all are making such a big deal out of this. Women are allowed to have their pain too just like men are allowed to. W…

All that I'm saying is that criticizing how people implement something is different from criticizing the idea itself. I'm not going to criticize the idea of "all men were created equal". I'm going to criticize the bigots who decided that only white men would enjoy that freedom and push for more people being included as we have done for centuries. I'm not going to criticize feminism, which simply means "the belief in social, economic, and political equality of the sexes". But I would easily criti…

Well, when it comes to university, the graduation rates for women compared to men are 2:1. It's like 3:1 at postgrad. A lot of women are rightfully cheering for themselves for doing so well, but they are also lamenting how society is declining when we have a less educated half of the population. A large number of women who are not queer and don't want to be single all their lives - are going to end up being single all their lives - due to hypergamy.

"There's a reason you didn't give The Will To Change to women primarily" Well, I gave it to those men because I thought it would be reassuring to them that a feminist was empathetic to their struggles. I definitely got One of my female bosses to buy the book and I have recommended it to a number of women in greater numbers than the men I described above.

At the end of the day, if you're going to blame false-feminism, as bell hooks would call the version that is man-hating, in a vacuum without the other cultural and social economic factors around it, your analysis is always going to be incomplete

There's no ethical way to exist within a patriarchal, white supremacist, capitalist system, of course. But you shouldn't throw the baby out with the bath water. There are other isms at play besides sexism.

I've seen that talking point but as a teacher myself, I didn't see that stuff in schools. Schools are some of the best places where people are socialized to be more accepting. I actually taught a bunch of diversity and inclusion curriculum myself. It's when people get hurt as adults and go on social media, they then preach their hurt and encourage others to hurt others
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates10/12/24 03:06 PM

I should also add that I had some romantic partners who also were supportive 😁 That being said, I've definitely had some bad experiences. Again, this is not something innate in women. Women, just like men, are socialized to act certain ways. Isn't the aim of this channel to point out those problems and push people to be better?

It is quite ironic that this place is called left wing male advocates and treat feminism in such a toxic way. When I think of men's libs, I thought this would be another version of that because I don't look at liberalism in a positive way in its current form, but that subreddit is ironically doing better than here Anyway, I hope lurkers will look at the conversation and take a more positive meaning from what you have shared.

So I skimmed over some of that and I disagree with the idea that rap is working class culture. It had its roots in that but it is very much now rich black people telling people how to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, which is a conservative talking point in blackface. I think it is quite fair to criticize what hip hop has changed into

What's fascinating is that this place is called "left-wing male advocates" but act like feminism is not left-wing when it very much is so. It is hooks version of feminism that is trying to allow men to be their complete, emotional, and vulnerable selves along with their masculinity. It encourages women to look in the mirror and see how they hurt men themselves instead women only faulting men for their problems. It's like this subreddit is the Twilight zone 😆

I don't disagree with her when she says that in general white people don't want to unlearn or put substantial effort into on learning racism or that that men and women struggle to untangle themselves from patriarchy. Things have certainly gotten better since the time that she wrote her books, but these problems still remain.

You are attempting to position yourself as if your interpretation is objective but it is subjective. In that book and others she has written, hooks has talked about how men are socialized to view love and sex differently than women. It's a generalization and you can disagree with her but that's her truth and the reality of a lot of men.

Women have been socialized to be vulnerable for a long time. She is saying that men, who have historically been encouraged not to do that, should do that as well and that women should change to allow them to do it. Your quote literally proves my point 😆

In regards to her comment about men being emotionless sex seekers, she's talking about how men are socialized to view women and sex compared to women. She doesn't suggest that they are innately that way

To her point about white people, I'm not sure when that was written but in the past that was definitely the case when it came to white folks going to Black jazz clubs or voting for Obama and acting like that was enough. As a black man, I've definitely been disappointed in white liberal spaces. Now, she could just say some white people but for book shorthand that happens sometimes.

She also says that women must change. That's the point of equality. We all suffer under patriarchy and in order to undo the damage, we all must change. The fact that your only takeaway is that only men must change shows that either didn't read the book or that you don't have good comprehension skills.

I'm a very real male, but of course I'm a feminist. I don't believe that men should dominate women. I don't believe in gender and racial hierarchies like she does. There's nothing about hooks that makes her a fraud. She could have taken the easy route and been a grifter by openly hating men like a number of women do, but her opinion has been fringe for decades. Even in the book, she talks about how other feminists attacked her and others like her for her ideas. It feels like you're just throwing…

You keep trying to position your viewpoint as objective but it really isn't. Unfortunately, it seems like you don't have very good reading comprehension because she very clearly details how women have failed men from motherhood to romantic partnership and how they can do better. She also details what men have done within patriarchy. It isn't a zero-sum game. If you don't like how she gives a voice to victims of patriarchy, which include men, then that's your problem.

You are taking that quote out of context. She is saying that women and children suffer at the hands of patriarchal violence. I was a victim of it personally. She is merely saying that because those groups who have historically suffered feel so helpless they would rather their patriarchs die because they don't know how to make them change. That isn't how she felt personally when she was writing the book. Indeed, she even talked about how she and her father made some inroads as they got older.

OP, I don't understand how some of these redditors could be so against bell hooks when she is such an influential force for empathy and justice for all. I read The Will To Change a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. I actually bought it for two close male friends, my sister's husband, my neighbor, younger brother, and father.

What do you think about this quote from the book: "If we cannot heal what we cannot feel, by supporting patriarchal culture that socializes men to deny feelings, we doom them to live in states of emotional numbness. We construct a culture where male pain can have no voice, where male hurt cannot be named or healed."

I highly disagree. I have been very fortunate to have female friends and family who are empathetic towards when I'm down, even though I've had to teach a couple of them. There are some things that are biological. However, things of this nature are socially taught.

I have seen no liberal outcry for Obama's My Brother Keeper initiative. A lot of Republican policies are toxic to everyone but they try to market them as good. Same with some neoliberal policies. Making policies focused on men and boys would make create more viable dating partners as well as a safer society in general. That's easy marketing that both parties fail to attempt.

I think the Bernie Sanders campaign recaptured that energy too, as he had more of the younger women vote, if I'm not mistaken. The Democratic establishment cheated and choked out that movement twice.

I think it's equally, if not more, important to talk about the mental and emotional abuse women can do to men in relationships: ignoring, ghosting, manipulation, ridicule when someone voices their feelings and vulnerability, etc.

The irony is that even though conservative leaning influencers' rhetoric is more sympathetic towards men, the Republican party's policies actually hurt everyone - regardless of gender - more through deregulation, union busting, social safety net cutting, tax cuts, and more.

Like I said, Trump received 3 million less votes than before and the Democrats lost even more - about 10 million. Like the dating scene, a lot of men realized that their options are shitty and simply checked out.
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates09/12/24 04:08 PM

Regardless of your point, the Republican party does not have any plan for helping men, period. Even the influencers are just critical without any realistic plans themselves. From what I've seen from red pill content, it simply encourages men to check out or date abroad (which many many cannot or will not do), not participate in building bridges and understanding domestically or locally.

Social and political issues are interconnected. It's quite easy for a political party to adopt new language first and then policy to allocate resources to improving social issues. While I'm not the biggest fan of Obama, the My Brother's Keeper initiative he created while in office is an example.

If anyone has read the book, The Will To Change by black radical feminist bell hooks, which is 20 years old, all of this reducing men to predators and the enemy is not new. Labeling masculinity toxic on its head is new language. There are a lot of women who have come to consciousness through work like hers but cherry pick parts of her message. Speaking to the point about how a number of women still want men to do traditional gender roles, bell hooks has said that women uphold patriarchy too. I w…
