| – | Age gap relationships are psychologically optimal for both gendersBecause seeing older man/younger woman couples is not unusual, whereas seeing the opposite is EXTREMELY rare. It’s a basic fact of life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 01:30 PM |
| 3 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.That was a misdirection. She wouldn’t care if you flirted with everyone if you were hot enough. Simple as that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 12:34 PM |
| – | Not having sex is an acceptable outcomeBollocks. A child pestering for candy is not a threat. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 10:23 AM |
| – | Men need to display invulnerability ratherI have never in my life known a woman to like when men show emotions. Never. I have seen loads of women complain that their men do not show emotions. These look like the same thing, BUT THEY ARE NOT. Women saying they want something does not mean they ACTUALLY want it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 08:57 AM |
| -1 | Women don’t actually need men anymore. So what incentive is left for commitment?“I don’t need no man” is something young women say because they think it sounds cool. Talk to actual, grown up woman…esp those that are married (i.e. SUCCESSFUL). They’ll all tell you that they couldn’t imagine life without their man. Men and women need each other. Period. It is the foundation of our species. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 08:20 AM |
| – | Not having sex is an acceptable outcomeThen that thing (threat) is the problem, not the pestering. Pestering is just words. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 08:13 AM |
| – | Not having sex is an acceptable outcome“Pestering” is bad, but it is not “duress”. There is absolutely nothing stopping you from walking away (literally or metaphorically). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 07:58 AM |
| – | Not having sex is an acceptable outcomeAs usual, this is stupidly reductive. What is “asking”? A kiss? A gentle touch? A slightly longer than normal hug? A direct proposition? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 07:02 AM |
| 1 | Women care about personality but only if they know you for some timeLooks fade, but doesn’t that make looks even MORE important when young? If you only have a limited time to appreciate someone beautiful, then that time and that beauty is even more valuable. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 08:09 AM |

| 1 | Urbanization Is Contributing to Both Sexlessness and Hypersexuality.Developed societies are not much more urbanised than they were 25 years ago, but the dating Alabama’s have fundamentally shifted. If it is mono-causal, that cause is mobile internet. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 07:55 AM |
| 0 | Believing a 50/50 man will step up later isn’t just naive - it’s riskyWhat was this “career” that she “sacrificed”? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 06:52 AM |
| 2 | Believing a 50/50 man will step up later isn’t just naive - it’s riskyBy this definition pretty much every marriage is 50/50, even SAMHs are “50/50” since they earn no money and put in 50% of what they earn (nothing) into the family finances. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 06:47 AM |
| -1 | Believing a 50/50 man will step up later isn’t just naive - it’s risky“ First most people practicing 50/50 understand you can’t split it exactly down the middle if there is an income disparity.” This sounds like a really convoluted way of saying: women rely financially on their men. “Oh, babe, we’re 50/50! Even though you pay for everything….but you make more! We are EQUAL PARTNERS, so I get an equal say in everything despite not providing equal value!” Very typical for the present day. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 06:45 AM |
| 1 | Continuing a “Friendship” with a woman is not a good idea.….you're acting like NO man thinks like I do (I can assure you, that all, or nearly all, men think exactly as I’ve described). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 06:42 AM |
| 3 | What do you think about this quote from Bell Hooks?Utterly pointless navel gazing. There is no such thing as a society in which men are just valued for existing. Such a society has never, and will never, exist. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 05:32 AM |
| 2 | Continuing a “Friendship” with a woman is not a good idea.Again, none of that is how men work. You’re treating him as if he’s a woman. For men. love or attraction are not binary things, on or off. You’re either in the ‘yes’ column, or the ‘no’ column. Unless you become horribly unattractive in some way you’re extremely unlikely to be moved from the ‘yes’ to the ‘no’. Ever. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 05:29 AM |
| 1 | Men following other men's advices because you "don't ask a fish how to fish" is pretty stupide“ We’re all different, just like all men are different Not really. In my experience most people are pretty similar, when you get down to it. The expressions of those core drives might differ, but they aren’t fundamentally all that different. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 05:21 AM |
| 7 | Men following other men's advices because you "don't ask a fish how to fish" is pretty stupide“Super useful” is a stretch. Even women’s relationship advice is basically boiling down to “Do everything for me, while making me feel like you’re in charge”. Typical immature, have-your-cake-and-eat-if nonsense. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 05:05 AM |
| 2 | Men following other men's advices because you "don't ask a fish how to fish" is pretty stupideThis is pure nonsense. Dating apps are infinitely easier. In real life you meet women randomly, have to navigate from whatever context you met into something romantic, and even if that works you then have to navigate all the people around you. It’s exhausting. On apps you KNOW you’re both there for a date. It’s the only reason you connected. It makes everything so much easier, clearer, and more direct. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 05:03 AM |
| 2 | Continuing a “Friendship” with a woman is not a good idea.“ And he's obviously over me because he's seeing someone else” Yeah, that’s not how humans work. At all. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 04:53 AM |

| 1 | Could having standards that are too high be helped with therapy?If those standards prevent you from finding a relationship and leave you ultimately unhappy then, yes, they are wrong. It’s the end result that determines whether or not something “wrong” , does it not? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 05:17 AM |
| 3 | Women Aren't Playing the Victim. Red Pill Men Don't Understand Consent.“A lot” is doing some heavy lifting here. How many is “a lot”? 5% 59%? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 06:19 PM |
| 7 | Women Aren't Playing the Victim. Red Pill Men Don't Understand Consent.“ Because they have no honor, self-respect, or respect for others” Ah, yes. The holy trinity of what women find attractive: honour, respect, and….respect? Let’s face it: the more successful a man is, the more entitled he becomes, and the more likely he is to push things too far and not notice the reticence of the woman. As ever, the women here are firmly committed to the apex fallacy, even when discussing their villains. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 01:36 PM |
| 5 | Women Aren't Playing the Victim. Red Pill Men Don't Understand Consent.I’ll be honest, I think the consent thing has been wildly blown out of proportion. The men who might listen never needed the scolding to being with. The men who won’t listen never cared about consent in the first place. This is right up there with teaching people not to steal. It’s a ludicrous proposition borne of a complete disconnect with reality. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 01:33 PM |
| – | Many women say they prefer "friends first" approach while dread a the moment a guy friend develops feelings"the woman could not be ugly but since the guy know her he might not want a relationship with her and it could get messy if they " WOMEN think like this....men do not. For a man adding sex to a relationship they already enjoy is a pure positive. There are literally zero downsides. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 10:25 AM |
| -5 | What does the future of dating look like in a job market that favors women yet many of whom still won’t “date down”?The thing about male hobbies is that they can be expensive, but they store value rather than destroy it (unlike female hobbies). Sure, your husband has 17 guitars, but he could survive happily with 2-3 and sell the rest for a windfall, if needed. You can’t do that with “travel” or shoes (which tend to plummet in value, if they retain any at all). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 09:34 AM |
| -1 | What does the future of dating look like in a job market that favors women yet many of whom still won’t “date down”?Female breadwinner marriages are overwhelmingly among the very poor (the woman is the breadwinner because the man is incapable of earning money), and “egalitarian” marriages, while much more common, are defined so loosely as to be meaningless. In my last serious relationship anyone would say we were “egalitarian” (similar age, same profession, etc), even though I made maybe 60% more each year (and that 60% basically decided the quality of our lives). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 09:31 AM |
| – | Many women say they prefer "friends first" approach while dread a the moment a guy friend develops feelingsThis can happen, but it is pretty rare. A woman has to be pretty unattractive (bottom 15%) for a single man to reject her outright like that…..doubly so if they already enjoy each other’s company. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 09:17 AM |
| – | Many women say they prefer "friends first" approach while dread a the moment a guy friend develops feelingsAs ever, don’t listen to what they say, watch what they do. “Just be friends first” NEVER works. Women say it because it sounds nice (makes them look virtuous), and they can use it as an insult against men who struggle (oh, you’re just doing it wrong, and/or you’re immoral because you try to date women). In my experience, you either start dating right away, all at once, or never. Absolutely no middle ground, in my experience. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 09:12 AM |
| 3 | SAHMs should UnionizeThe house, food, clothing, any luxuries, and the freedom to spend their life with their kids rather than working some awful job represents a pretty substantial pay for what is ultimately menial work. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/07/26 08:53 AM |
| – | "Gold digging" attitudes are a spectrum, so no, they are not always that obvious.Everyone gets a pass once. When it becomes a trend my sympathy falls off pretty substantially…. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/07/26 06:12 PM |
| 1 | I'm starting to think men don't consider women they're not attracted to to be womenThose calculators are sort of bullshit though. They take the population as a whole, which is it how humans actually experience life. They’re meaningless for people living in a given community. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/07/26 08:13 AM |
| – | Feminists In Practice Believe in the Absolute, near Invariant Moral Perfection of Women. It is a Highly Dangerous View:Take any feminist statement and swap the word “woman” for “white” and “man” for “black”. You’ll see instantly that you basically have a supremacist movement on your hands. No less, no more. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/07/26 07:28 AM |
| 3 | Men place women on a pedestal and in doing so they start to hate women for any show of humanity.As a prostitute do you really think you’re seeing anything like a representative cross-section of society? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/07/26 04:11 PM |

| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?You’re talking pure, ideological nonsense. Just parroting the same 2020s talking points. Gender roles might change (slightly) from one society to another, but the broad trends are universal and ancient. You cannot change hundreds of thousands if not millions of years of evolution (and yes, ‘social constructs’ are part of our evolution). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 10:31 PM |
| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?This is a ludicrous response, and you know it. Where did I say "all"? Where? Do you believe that women, simply by virtue of being women, are physically incapable of ever making a mistake? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:33 PM |
| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?"I just think we should abolish the concept of femininity and masculinity." I think humans should just sprout wings and fly rather than drive, to save the environment! Wanting something impossible is a waste of time.... | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:28 PM |
| – | We men are setting ourselves back. And there's no excuseThis is nonsense. I spend a fair bit of time around young men (18-22). They are scarcely different from the young men of 10-20 years ago. A little less drinking, sure, and somewhat more into fitness, but overall very similar. Women are the ones who changed. The ‘ick’ did not exist ten years ago. ‘666’ did not exist 20 years ago. This is simply not a male problem, however you try to twist it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 09:28 AM |

| -1 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyThe gentle reinstitution of social pressure to marry and multiply. This pressure was attacked by feminists as “keeping women down”, when it reality it was keeping all of society afloat. Small cultural tweaks would have pretty big impacts, I suspect. Combine that with extensive fat shaming (both to increase people’s attractiveness and fertility) and the problems would probably solve themselves. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 06:08 AM |
| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?Make an argument, not insinuation. I simply do not know what you’re talking about. And yes, I do think it comes down to indecision, or just poor decision-making in general. I’ve literally seen it with my own eyes, dozens of times. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:59 AM |
| 4 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracy….because we understand basic maths? At present course South Korea will halve its population before I die. That is self-genocide on an unprecedented scale. Would you actually contend than men have suddenly, in the past 20 years, become vastly less attractive than men of every other generation that has ever lived? Maybe that is your contention, but it seems pretty radical, if so. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:56 AM |
| 1 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracySo, you think the developed world should cease to exist? Because that is the ONLY possible conclusion of your worldview. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:38 AM |
| 1 | There are similar patterns in men anticipating sex, and women anticipating commitment“ The thing a lot of people will say is that there's supposed to be some kind of premeditated discussion of what a relationship is supposed to be before you fall into that trap.” This is pretty new and VERY culturally specific (in the West it’s pretty much just Americans who date like this). In Europe if you’re obviously dating….then you’re dating. No need for a conversation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:31 AM |
| 5 | There are similar patterns in men anticipating sex, and women anticipating commitmentIn my experience, most expectations about having sex and forming a relationship are pretty reasonable. Sadly, there are a lot of self-absorbed people out there who have no problem using the people around them for their own gain. Cut those people out of the market, and everything would get a lot better, pretty quick. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:29 AM |
| 11 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyIn the developed world the present rate of singledom and childlessness is literally unprecedented. This is a stone cold fact. You are not arguing in good faith. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:12 AM |
| 0 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?Egalitarian has nothing to do with gender roles, though. You’re conflating things. Also, humans tried matriarchy a few times. The societies all failed pretty miserably. For one reason or another it just doesn’t work. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 05:11 AM |
| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?Ok, and even in very rigidly gendered households (which I have NEVER seen in the developed world) people eventually leave their parents’ house and can go about doing whatever they want. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:58 AM |
| 1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?I do think I know, yes. The internet has utterly broken women’s brains (and men’s, albeit to a lesser extent). Women’s sexual selection has always been contextual, rather than concrete. When they lose the ability to accurately assess the context (due to online intrasexual competition, posturing, and endless online male attention), a good number fail to make any decisions and wind up unmarried and not reproducing. This has never happened before in the history of our species (or any species, for t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:56 AM |

| 5 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyIt’s really not debatable. We know the replacement rate (2.1 children per woman). We know that every developed society on Earth is below that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:53 AM |
| 0 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyA person with more options is less likely to commit (or to even want to). That’s just obvious. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:51 AM |
| 1 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyThe number one thing a person can do to be more attractive is get in shape, which almost anyone can (and should!) do. That part, a major part, is absolutely merit-based. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:41 AM |
| 7 | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyFor the millionth time…. An individual making decisions is great, whatever those decisions tend to be. An entire culture shift, unprecedented in human history, in which women en masse decide that the survival of their culture isn’t worth having to settle down with men who are demonstrably on their level (or even a little above) is just disastrous. What we’re experiencing is a sort of mass hysteria, not individuals making rational choices that will make them happy. Thankfully this is likely just … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:38 AM |
| 2 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?This seems borderline impossible. Even chimps have gender roles. You can GUARANTEE that early homo, and other hominin, did as well. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:35 AM |
| -3 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?Nope. The only factor is women opting out of being mothers. Literally the only problem. Same with the ‘dating crisis’. Eventually women will wake up and return to sanity, but this generation is probably lost and will not be able to self-correct in time. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:32 AM |
| -1 | Would you like to live in a post gender society?No one has ever threatened trans people’s ability to “exist in public”. This is just not a thing. A segment of radical trans activists pushed to totally overhaul society during the chaos of COVID and all the rest of it. They failed, because most people cannot live in that sort of unreality. So, trans people now mostly live in the 2018/2019 world; going about their business as normal and getting on with it. This is, realistically, as good as anyone can realistically hope for. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 04:31 AM |

| – | what preferences are women allowed to have?Why do women here always make the exact same logical mistake? Taking things down to single individual completely misses the point. Imagine you’re running a small city and one person gets drunk, passes out, and commits in the street. It’s awkward, but not a massive problem, and can be cleaned up easily. Now imagine fully 5-10% of the people in your city do that. Now you have absolute carnage. You need to look at things from a societal level. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/07/26 08:32 AM |
| – | what preferences are women allowed to have?OP poisoning the well from the off by saying “preferences” rather than “standards”. Anyway, you can have any standards you want, so long as you can actually fill them. The reality is that a good chunk of women have standards they cannot reasonably fill, and this skews the entire dating market in unhealthy ways. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/07/26 08:29 AM |

Honestly, I think it’s mostly just political posturing. I have never witnessed one of these super unbalanced relationships in real life, and I have never heard a moderate or conservative woman complain….it is exclusively VERY left wing women bringing this up.

| 24 | The reason why a lot of men are struggling is because they do not want to date at their level. Below average men should date below average women. If you want better be better. Why are you asking another person to lower their standards for you, when you wont lower your standards?You can’t just flip reality and call it an argument. I have NEVER known a long term single guy with standards that are too high (i.e. constantly rejecting women who are coming on to him and roughly of his level). I have literally never seen this before in my life. I know a dozen women RIGHT NOW that are in this exact scenario. They are asked out regularly and reject everyone because they aren’t good enough.

| 8 | Why doesn't accurate information bring women more comfortFundamentally this comes down to incentives. Women have absolutely no incentive to accept that their risk is way lower than it is usually portrayed, or that they are treated pretty equally in society, all things considered.

He literally interviewed her for her job. Yes, they were both working at the same hedge fund, but c’mon…they were not peers by any stretch of the imagination. In that note, saying she married him when he was “broke” is also total nonsense. Again, he was VP at a hedge fund.

| 1 | Why do you think men outnumber women on dating/hookup apps?Women only massively outnumber men on dating apps in America. This is not a global problem. Why is this the case? Probably because Americans are super atomised (a result of car culture) and so more men are driven to the convenience of trying to date off their phone from the comfort of their home. Women therefore are flooded with attention, in real life and online, and are therefore able to get off apps easier, leading to a larger stagnation of men.

| 1 | Group Houses Can Dramatically Improve DatingMedian income per person is misleading because of the increase of women in the workforce. Look at media male income….it hasn’t budged in the same time period. Also, look at the inflation of essentials, especially housing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/02/26 04:56 PM |
| 2 | If men stopped caring so much, they would have the upper hand in the dating world.You’re asking for changes to our very evolution. That’s not going to happen on any sort of reasonable timeframe. Of men did not pursue, en masse, humanity would die out. EVEN WITH male pursuit Korea and Japan may cease to exist within a century or two (because women refuse to accept local men, who then retreat into strange, screen-based lives as a result, making them even more undateable, and creating a population death spiral). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/02/26 04:58 AM |
| 2 | Group Houses Can Dramatically Improve DatingSo, you basically agree. The third spaces are all still there, people (terminally online, maladjusted weirdos) just refuse to use them, and then they turn around and pretend like these places no longer exist at all, because they can’t be bothered to shower, get dressed, and actually go there. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/02/26 04:55 AM |
| 1 | Group Houses Can Dramatically Improve DatingIf people choose to sit at home and goon all day that’s their fault…..not society’s. The real problem is economic: everyone is just a lot poorer than they were 50 years ago, so they have less time and money to waste hanging out in public. People also get married way later, so they’re complaining about spending most of their time at home in their 20s and 30s which previous generations ALSO DID…..they just already had a spouse and children by then, so it didn’t matter. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/02/26 04:52 AM |
| 5 | Group Houses Can Dramatically Improve DatingAgreed. I hate the fact that some Sociology adjunct somewhere taught these midwits about “third spaces”, and now they’ll go on brining them up, impotently, for the rest of their lives. We have no lost even a SINGLE third space in the past century (in fact, we’ve gained some!). Cafes and bars still exist. So do dancehalls and churches, and (depending on where you live) soda bars, and bowling alleys, and rec leagues and all the rest of them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/02/26 12:11 AM |

| 1 | Has modern male self-improvement become a socially acceptable form of insecurity?My old car and tiny house would both be considered 'poverty level' in most of the US. My colleagues, when they briefly transferred to the Bay Area, got financial aid for their children to attend school, because they were the poorest family in the neighbourhood. The UK is poorer than Alabama or Mississippi. People just don't realise it because we still have soem old buildings from back when we were actually rich. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/02/26 04:56 PM |

| 4 | Has modern male self-improvement become a socially acceptable form of insecurity?What do you mean by socialism? Regulated capitalism is the single greatest economic model that has ever been developed. Americans might complain about wealth disparity, but this is partially because Americans have enough wealth to actually distribute. In Europe we have less wealth overall (by a huge degree), and therefore less wealth disparity, because there just isn’t very much to go around in the first place).

| 2 | Love bombing and cold disinterestLogic. No woman on Earth is going to be won over by “love bombing” from an ugly dude. If it worked, then “simps” and orbiters would not exist….they’d all win the girls they’re chasing. We know that this does not happen.

| 2 | Love bombing and cold disinterestYes, I think people (bored academics) came up with a term for something that does not exist. I do not explain the phenomenon….because I don’t think it exists. Manipulation exists, but the vast majority of “love bombing” claims I’ve seen or heard of are not manipulative….they’re just alive that fizzles out for whatever reason. Sadly, people today have this sick need to label EVERYTHING, which unlikely only confuses them further, rather than adding any clarity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/02/26 05:19 AM |
| 1 | Are woman's lives nowadays more stressful than in the past or in some ways worse than in the past?Mental illness is probably a subtle reaction to overpopulation. The human population was fairly stable until about 300 years ago. People died early and often, making depression a ludicrous response when everyone was miserable. Now that people are far less likely to die in a mining accident or whatever lives longer on and we had to fill these lives up with meaning….which previous generations didn’t have to worry about as much. It’s just a totally different paradigm, exacerbated by communications … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/02/26 05:11 AM |
| 0 | Love bombing and cold disinterestWhen she says “the men don’t have to be attractive” she’s lying and coping.

| 4 | The 'Mankeeping' narrative shows that women are openly hostile to discussing men's emotional labor loadA woman’s “emotional labour” is just inventing expectations for herself and then congratulating herself for meeting them. No more, no less. “I did all the mental load/emotional labour or decorating the house and making sure everything wa perfect for Christmas!” Great. A man would be equally happy if none of this happened, so it is not added value, nor is it necessary. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/02/26 04:48 AM |
| 1 | What do you actually want women to do?Because if she treats you worse up front, the likelihood of her treating you worse down the line skyrockets. This doesn’t just mean psychological pain, but a strong likelihood of being absolutely devastated financially when Chad does come knocking five years into your marriage.

| 4 | Should you seek infatuation when dating?50% success rate for a guy built as you describe seems marginally low… Honestly, it sounds like these women are putting in minimal effort, and I wouldn’t be thrilled either. If she NEVER texts first that’s a terrible sign, in my view. Age is no excuse.

| 1 | What are ways (besides sleeping with him on the first date) that a woman can prove she's as attracted to her current partner as she was to her exes?Fortunately in Europe qualifying exams are not a thing, you’re right (if only by accident). You jump straight to the thesis. It’s why in Britain you can walk out the door with your PhD at 25 or 26 and actually get on with your life. Anyway, I say that PhDs are about endurance rather than intelligence because it is ultimately a grind.

Too many people treat “more formal” clothes as a costume, rather than as clothing. Once you accept all clothes as just “clothes” you’ll look and feel a lot better. If you can’t do that, then the suit will always be wearing you, rather than the other way around. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/02/26 05:04 AM |

Some women strong men along for material benefit. Men do not want this to happen to them, so look for sexual interest early on. A woman who shows you less sexual interest than she has shown other men in the past make it statistically MUCH more likely that she just wants you for your status/money/whatever.

Secondly, the only thing a woman can do to truly show interest is to be physical. Absolutely nothing else works in quite the same way. Doesn’t means she has to have sex on the first date, but if there is not at least making out, then a man’s suspicion and doubt is going to be raised.

The fact is that women NEED to look up to their man, and so their man has to treat them with a level of either disinterest (VERY slightly, basically signalling a willingness to walk away) or be slightly patronising. I hate it, but it is fundamentally what women demand and reward. I wish they didn’t, but I don’t get to control that. All I can control is how I respond. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/01/26 08:47 PM |
| 1 | The "patriarchy" is a boogeyman used to justify hatred and abuse towards men.This is such an Anglo-centric view of the past. The story doesn’t work for MOST of the world, which did no grant universal suffrage in response to activism. Pretty much exclusively the US, UK, and Switzerland did. Lots of states simply had it forced on them after 1945, or as part of communist or socialist revolutions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/01/26 08:36 PM |
| 4 | For men who say they’re afraid of being used by women, what are the things she’s using men for? What are the signs a woman is using a man? What are the signs she isn’t using a man?I would disagree….I think being used is the norm, not an aberration. A woman has one boyfriend, and multiple orbiters. The maths point to “using” being far more common than anyone wants to admit. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/01/26 02:19 PM |
| – | How can dating work efficiently in a world without gender norms?“ For example, a queer-friendly nightlife scene in a major city that doesnt consist only of gay bars” This is kind of a problem, though. My friends complain bitterly that there are only two lesbian bars in Paris (on the same street, of course). They don’t want to go to a “queer-friendly” bar when they go out. They’re lesbians, and they want to go to a LESBIAN bar. The amalgamation of queer spaces works for some smaller queer communities, but is not necessarily a good thing for larger ones. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/01/26 09:16 PM |
| 1 | Would you marry a woman who would not take your last name?Yea, sure, why not? In my personal/professional circle it’s pretty common for a husband and wife to have different last names. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/01/26 09:11 PM |

| 3 | Men do not have “genuine desire” for their partners in the way they want for themselves"But according to men here, that means she isn’t attracted, which I don’t agree with at all." In my 40 years of life I have NEVER had sex with a woman who 'made me wait' first. Either it happened very early on, or it happened never. No middle ground. This is the reality for almost all men I know. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/01/26 06:18 PM |

You can say it, and believe it, because you're comparing her to other stars, but in reality almost all famous, attractive actresses look unreal in the flesh.

| 2 | Just Feels PointlessNO man actively prefers a "bitch". Sometimes that's just what you happen to get. Also, I don't see how "you should be nice to your partner" is either "incel" or "revenge fantasy". Do you know how words work? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/01/26 01:06 PM |
| 3 | Just Feels PointlessNotice how they all emphasised PEACEFUL. This is the absolute, number one trait a woman can have….way more important than looks. For some reason, just not being crazy is a bar very few women can meet. Do that, be nice and helpful, and you’ll find a man who’s crazy about you. Period. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/01/26 09:26 AM |

| 0 | It's not reasonable to expect young women to have fully flushed out and mature standards in men out the gateDenmark has a birth rate of 1.50.

| 1 | It's not reasonable to expect young women to have fully flushed out and mature standards in men out the gateOP is technically correct, but ignores that some women use this as a smokescreen for continued bad decision making, sometimes deep into their 30s. Most of us have to learn life lessons the hard way. That’s not an excuse for making the same mistakes again, and again, and again. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/01/26 09:26 AM |

| 1 | Is Vetting Seen as a Red Flag“ it weeds out the guys looking only for sex pretty quickly” You sound really young, so I’ll try to be nice: this did not work how you think it’s working. It just means the man will put you in the back burner and let the clock run out, while sleeping with other girls in the meantime. If you want a man to commit to you you need to date a man at, or below, your level. It’s as simple as that. You need to be a guy’s best option, otherwise why would he stick around? It’s that simple. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 08:29 AM |

| 2 | Is Vetting Seen as a Red FlagGod, this reminds me. Years ago I had a first date with a woman in Central London. Just a casual, walk around/art gallery/coffee date to get to know each other. This was in the early days of OLD (pre-Tinder), so we were both new to the process. She started at one point saying she nearly didn’t show up, because what if I tried to kill her…. I was super taken aback. I mean, we were right in the heart of a major city. In public. During the day. WTF did she think was gonna happen!? Same as when one … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 08:17 AM |

| 0 | Is Vetting Seen as a Red Flag“How's the relationship with your friends? What are your thoughts on a woman's right to choose? Those are honestly straightforward and great for all parties. I can ask "How do you feel about fitness? Are you in therapy? Do you think that some rules apply only to men? Only to women?“ These are absolutely insane questions to ask someone, particularly on a first date. The implications are vile and would turn me off instantly (they have strong “guilty until proven innocent” vibes). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 08:09 AM |

I’m confident because I have played with, and for, others and have had positive, undeniable feedback.

| – | The Motherhood Hoax: It Just Isn’t That HardModern parenting is still “easy” (as in basically anyone can do it with not training or experience), but it has become more time consuming. Recently I was watching the NFL with a friend and he had to go pick up his daughter from a school event. She’s 12 (iirc) and the school is maybe 300 metres away. For the last few hundred thousand years a a child of 12 just 300m away from How would be considered more than capable of getting herself home safely. Not anymore. It’s collective madness. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 07:42 AM |
| – | The Motherhood Hoax: It Just Isn’t That Hard“Properly” is a huge shifting goalpost. Parents (particularly American parents) have wildly over complicated parenting BY CHOICE. Leaving a kid to play with dirt and sticks in the back yard would be more than enough for most children throughout most of human history. Only in recent decades have well-to-do families suddenly required their children to be constantly “enriched”, and have their schedule filled to bursting with pointless activities.

| – | Getting laid as a guy shouldn't be this difficultTotally disagree (also, Americans and their “state lines”….you guys really gotta get out more). Abortion is a modern medical miracle and should be cheaply and easily available for any woman that wants one, up until the start of the third trimester (at least, in my view, obvs). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/01/26 11:19 PM |
| – | Getting laid as a guy shouldn't be this difficultThis is also a hyper-localised, US-only problem. EVEN THEN American women in states with abortion bans can just drive or fly to a state that does not have those bans. If they can't afford a short drive or a cheap flight then they have WAY bigger issues on their hands and should have been MUCH more careful with sex (accepting that genuine accidents do happen....but they're pretty rare.

As long as you're not overreacting, you can usually trust your gut. "Should I mask when I’m around them and cry myself asleep?" Yes, you should do exactly this, if you're being irrational. You MUST be logical if you're going to present a problem to a man.
