| – | “Be nice” was NEVER code for “Being nice to women gets them wet for you”. Nice guys lie to themselves.I think that ‘nice’ is so vague a term that a lot of men and women puts different meaning into it. I think it is better to say ‘kind’. I have a lot of married friends and the men that are kind (and you can be tough as nails and confident at the same time) are the ones who have good marriages. Everybody, both men and women love the tough and confident but kind man. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 06:04 PM |
| 1 | Men are more likely to support their partners in the event of a job loss. Why don't women do the same?In fairness, they did not retract the whole study What we find in the corrected analysis is we still see evidence that when wives become sick marriages are at an elevated risk of divorce, whereas we don’t see any relationship between divorce and husbands’ illness. We see this in a very specific case, which is in the onset of heart problems. So basically its a more nuanced finding. The finding is not quite as strong. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 03:37 PM |
| 1 | Is settling a widespread common occurence?My husband is not perfect of course, but it doesn’t matter because we have been together 20+ years and we now are so interconnected and have so much history and bonds that it would be just as inconceivable to not be together as go no contact with my kids. My kids are not perfect either and I love them with all my heart, just like my not perfect husband. I think nobody is perfect, but some relationships gets better and better, you grow together and some relationships gets worse. And you should kn… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 03:31 PM |
| 1 | Is there really an epidemic of women divorcing nice guys for no reason ?Aren’t the divorce rates declining? And boomers having the highest divorce rates of all, so no child custody problems, so why are we talking about an epidemic? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 03:15 PM |
| 1 | Why do people not want to accept the reasons modern dating isn’t working?Mostly the birth rates are falling because child producing couples have less kids. If you want replacement birth rates, help those who want to have more kids to be able to support them mentally and financially. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 08:56 AM |
| 2 | Why do people not want to accept the reasons modern dating isn’t working?Women don’t want their Mom’s life, but men want their Dad’s. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 08:51 AM |
| 1 | Why do people not want to accept the reasons modern dating isn’t working?I am a Nordic parent. The problem here is mainly that child producing couples don’t have more than two kids. And this decision is made by the couple, not only the woman. Having more than two kids here, it is problematic, the whole society is made for the 4 person family. Extracurricular activities demand a lot of parental work, most houses have 3 bedrooms etc etc. A study showed that the new rules for car seats for kids that made it impossible to have more than two car seats in a normal car dire… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/24 08:39 AM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlThis is how it is in my country, and I think it is the best outcome too. Mind, this is in a setting where there is cheap child care and good parental leave benefits so that both parents are working and contributing about 50/50 when it comes to finances before the divorce too, so it is natural that they do the same afterwards. I don’t think that it is good for neither men nor women that men do all the financial providing and women do all the childcaring in the marriage because the man can easily … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/24 08:04 AM |
| 2 | The root of the gender war is birth controlWe haven’t tried anything and are all out of ideas, ok, heh. Well, I think this exchange has run its course, but thanks for it anyways. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/24 05:54 AM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlWhere I am from women are drafted so that isn’t an argument in my country. I will rephrase: what policies should a society do to encourage increase in birth rates? So far it seems that you just think that women should change their minds without any incentive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 11:34 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlSo what exactly would you change if you were in charge so that divorces ended up for the best for the children? All couples has to have 50/50 split custody? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 11:11 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlYou are not exactly a political talent are you when it comes to problemsolving. What do you think the society should do? I find it very unfair to say that women are greedy when they don’t have more children than they can afford in a country that don’t even have free health care for pregnant women. Your society gives nothing to women for having kids. That is the greedy part here. And anyone that don’t vote for policies that makes it easier for women to have children should really stop complaining… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 10:58 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlNo other solution than what exactly? What is your only solution? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 10:37 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlI am not sure what you mean exactly. Are you arguing for or against women working? If women are not working and stay at home, of course men would be paying majority of child support after divorce. In a society where women work as much as men, men and women would be split more equally who pays more child support. In my country there is no alimony after divorce because women are expected to be able to support themselves. I think it is fair. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 10:26 PM |
| 2 | The root of the gender war is birth controlBut it is the society’s responsibility to make the sacrifice as small as possible. It is absolutely possible to keep the birthrate at acceptable levels with the right policies, and yet have a society where women can work and support themselves. There is no society that have really tried yet. For instance: there was a study in Norway that showed that the new rules about car seats for kids that made it impossible to have more than two car seats in a normal car, had a direct influence in drop of fa… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 08:40 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlYou base your sheet on if birth rate falls. Two societies with same birth rate, the society where women work are far better off than a society where women don’t. It is far more efficient and sustaining for the planet to not have half the population outside the work force, what a waste of resources, both natural resources and intellectual. The point I am trying to make is that women are not going to give up their financial independence and the birth rate will fall unless the work market will make… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/24 05:46 PM |
| 1 | The root of the gender war is birth controlI am sorry, I am not a native speaker, what does ‘your strat vs mine’ mean? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 09:27 PM |
| 2 | The root of the gender war is birth controlYou think it is artificially inflated in the US where it is below 60%? Well in my part of the world (Scandinavia) 75% of women have employment compared to men around 80%. That means that we can take care of far more older people than societies where women don’t work as much. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 08:51 PM |
| 3 | The root of the gender war is birth controlBuddy, you gave a long rant about women’s contribution in the work force as not important, I just mirrored your words. I have far more understanding than you how an advanced society can sustain an aging population. Yes one need to boost birth rate so that the rate at least falls slowly, but you need to incentivize women to have more than two kids in a way that they don’t have to sacrifice their health and independence, and so that it is possible to work and have children at the same time. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 07:30 PM |
| 4 | The root of the gender war is birth controlWell women are on average more intelligent than men so I don’t see we can afford to not utilize a huge part of the gene pool. Maybe if half of the population is going to not work, it should be those of below average intelligence, both women and men. If you think this is provocative, it really isn’t any more arrogant than what you wrote. Point is: no advanced country can afford not to have every able adult to not work. You cannot argue that women should have more kids so that more adults can work… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 07:15 PM |
| 8 | The root of the gender war is birth controlThe fall in birth rate is mostly due to child producing couples having only 1-2 kids. Any policies boosting birth rate would have to focus on them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 07:08 PM |
| 2 | The root of the gender war is birth controlWell, would you pay a lot more taxes to pay for maternity leave and free pregnancy related health care? Free day care? Why not pay for education for women who have kids? Give a income to single women if they have kids? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 07:01 PM |
| 4 | The root of the gender war is birth controlNot a sacrifice, just normal life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 06:16 PM |
| 3 | The root of the gender war is birth controlFor women: yes it is worth it, the way society is now. I am not going to sacrifice my health and independence by having more than two kids for someone else. Furthermore: the conservative guys that scream about what women should sacrifice for the common good: When did you ever sacrifice anything for the common good? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 06:12 PM |
| 2 | The root of the gender war is birth controlYou do realize old women are the majority of old people, right? As a woman I would rather risk havin a shitty old age than having a shitty whole life. I have two kids, the society we have built (knowingly) makes it too hard to have more kids. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/02/24 06:08 PM |
| 2 | The "manosphere" built an entire reality to dodge accountability and give upThe best people, who both genders want to be friends with/be a lover with are both strong and kind. Nobody wants a person with a chip on the shoulder. Everybody loves the person that is tolerant but won’t stand for bullshit. And don’t forget, people of all ages and genders love the easygoing sunny and funny type of person. The type you are having fun with. Surly, grumpy and easily offended people are tiresome. It really isn’t very different to woo someone for love or friendship. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/10/23 11:58 AM |
| 1 | Do women find it very challenging to hear about men's struggle?Most of my male friends have partners now, but they were frustrated in our 20s. As a woman I felt bad for them because they were my friends and I loved them. But I was often frustrated, because they wanted to get advice from me, but didn’t follow them (I know it is a very human trait) And they often did things that I just knew was a huge turn-off. They just wasn’t able to present themselves in a way that was fair to them. But, those who took my very friendly big-sisterly advices got partners soo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/10/23 10:34 PM |
| 3 | If you were guaranteed a partner and didn't have to do any work would you take it? *obviously there are conditions*Families would just look at status, wealth and connections. Me and my siblings all have been married 20-30 years. Our parents would certainly have chosen bad spouses for us because they were snobs. Families aren’t more objective at all, they would choose what benefited them. But what do you think really matter? Kindness? Money? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/10/23 02:50 PM |
| 2 | If you were guaranteed a partner and didn't have to do any work would you take it? *obviously there are conditions*So I should choose for my siblings and they should choose for me? And that would be better than choosing for ourselves? How exactly? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/10/23 04:09 AM |
| 1 | The fear of not getting sex can sometimes be the main cause of not getting sex.Perhaps conservative religious women do. But it is more like a kink. Most men are starved for love. Most women are starved for respect. Being treated like you are more stupid, your opinions worth less is really anathema to most women. Honestly, would you like to be belittled in a relationship? People really do not. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/23 08:31 PM |
| 1 | "Touch grass" is awful advice. Social interaction and getting better at social skills is a two way street. You need two people who are BOTH willing to have a social interaction, it's not something you can do on your own. People seem to forget this.Honest question: do you think most of the guys desperate to meet women have meaningful friendship with other men? Because if they don’t it is perhaps easier to try to get better at socialising first with other men who won’t be as wary? A lot of women really find it daunting to be only meaningful relationship to a man, no one should have that responsibility. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/23 08:23 PM |
| 1 | People who say "Sex isn't a need" don't know how it is to be the average manA lot of men are starved for love. A lot of women are starved for respect. People need both. And I believe that sometimes some women don’t get the feeling of no empathy for those around. Not trying to dismiss this feeling. But men need also to acknowledge that never being treated with true respect (a guy flattering you for sex is not it) also is very harmful. I honestly think it would be better if things were not so skewed in either direction. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/23 08:19 PM |
| 1 | When you’re married and have children, what will your financial situation be?Married with kids. Before kids, we contributed equally financially and chores 50/50. It was fair in that the one who worked much more hours than the other also had more personal money. After kids, we are a family, and the two main assets/resources are time and money. We hold back an amount of money for personal use, to do whatever one wants to use it on. The rest into joint accounts. It also means that the one who works much more also use less time on chores. Sounds fair right? A lot of people a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/23 08:11 PM |
| 1 | Are you a ‘Traditional man’ worthy of a ‘traditional woman’? (Question for men who seek a traditional relationship)A lot of discussion here who are going to «lead» in a relationship. I have been happily married 20+ yrs and most of my friends the same. I also know some couples who divorced Just so you know where I’m coming from. In my experience is that in happy couples, there isn’t one that leads more than the other. Because it needs to balance out. I am a doctor so I lead when it comes to areas pertinent to that. My husband leads when it comes to houserelated things, economy: we need to be in agreement. Whe… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/23 02:31 PM |
