| 1 | A Question for men. What are the red flags in a relationship that would prevent you from ever proposing marriage.yes, it directly answers what you said. and sure, the government not wanting to pay may be a variable, but both can be true. it can be "we dont want to pay...so who should? probably the person who'd responsibility this child is. the father." and yes, it did have to do with their investment/sacrifice. It was made to disincentivize men from leaving the family, which they do at 5x the rate of women. which is why the divorce/alimony laws seem to be so skewed towards women — because it was mostly wom… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/05/24 01:34 AM |
| 1 | A Question for men. What are the red flags in a relationship that would prevent you from ever proposing marriage.uhhh....what about bearing children....which is the specific example I gave above? and you think that the guys who are in alignment with you are the ones getting the wives and procreating? then why do many men complain that when they say they are "conservative," (which for our context here, means "traditional" marriage)... women don't want to date them? but if she made more, then you're okay with it? so she should both invest more in the family creation and pay you out if you decide to dip? the … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/05/24 01:30 AM |
| -2 | A Question for men. What are the red flags in a relationship that would prevent you from ever proposing marriage.yeah, a man nutting and her investing 40 weeks + a year after breastfeeding a child is the same level of investment and sacrifice. lol....whens your big 15th coming? happy early birthday! thats nonsense copium. it was set up to disincentivize men from bailing on families, as they are known to do...much, much....*much*.... more often than women. 5 times more likely, according to pew research: https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2021/04/number-of-children-living-only-with-their-mothers-has-doub… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/05/24 02:50 AM |
| 1 | A Question for men. What are the red flags in a relationship that would prevent you from ever proposing marriage.That's pretty awful, but I know that most men think in these terms. You know, the whole divorce system was set up to incentivize men to stay with their wives/kids, acknowledging that the woman "invests/sacrifices" more in having children? It's kinda scary know you that you outright think "I only do it if it's beneficial for me." Doesn't factor in other types of investment/risk factors on the woman's party, only sees your own perspective, and disregards the risks shes taking on. Which I mean, if … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/05/24 12:53 AM |
| 2 | This sub is all negativity and debate. Post what you admire, appreciate, and enjoy about the opposite sex.Things i like about men: I think overall, men are better at compartmentalizing. I think men, overall, can be better at "direct" problem solving, whereas I think women are more intuitive with "relational" problems solving. This is just conceptual so don't come at me about accuracy of details, but one way I would put this is....say the problem at hand is cancer. Men are more like "how do we kill cancer cells?" Attack the problem in a direct way. I think with more women entering medicine, we'll see… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/05/24 12:30 AM |

| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI see. and men don't accumulate baggage as they get older? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:28 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versayea im not talking about major age gaps either. i think thats strange in either direction, just on a connectivity level. and even if thats why they like sex more (more comfortable) the net outcome is still the same. higher drive. i think 1-4 years is a good gap, that could work fine in either direction. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:23 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI suspect more than you think. theres an interesting dynamic between an older woman and a younger guy that i hadn't accounted for or anticipated. and its not always like this of course but my feel of it is...an eagerness to please and feel like hes "man enough" for her. felt like they had something to prove. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:20 PM |
| 0 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaonce again....this is about LIFE PARTNERSHIPS, END OF LIFE CARE, and WIDOW/WIDOWER. real, actual relationships, not fap material, not "attracted to." men finding 22 year olds attractive has damn near nothing to do with any of this. can someone please provide and actual counterpoint to what I'm saying above? good lord. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:11 PM |
| 0 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versathese changes are recent, with the most significant shift in the last 10 years...so we actually dont know yet. and i have read those studies, etc. and from that anticipated that sexual interest would drop off rapid in my 30s but thats hasn't been the case. and attraction is one thing...relationships are another. I linked an article in another comment that showed that though 20-23 year old women get the most swipes, men typically message/actually engage with women their own age. even 30 year old … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:09 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI think it has a lot to do with hollywood trends, which may be where we differ. a lot of other men who are very successful and have a lot of optionality go for women more similar in age, and sometimes older. jason mamoa (shes 12 years older!) and yet...crickets. meanwhile, theres a cultural narrative that it is common for successful older men to date 20 somethings. pretty sure jason mamoa could be banging 23 year old if he wanted. how many movies did we watch growing up where a 20 something actr… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 08:19 PM |
| 2 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versayeah i didnt think you were implying women should be teen moms or anything. I brought that up because the fertility window is a common argument for why men want younger women. I was pointing out that the people that do think like this...its like...well...men can have kids at a very young age too. not saying they should. but they can. i think there was a time in relatively recent history that it did make sense for women to start having kids very early, and even to have a lot of kids. in 1900 life… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 07:36 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versayes, but this is becoming less of a variable overall as women have more economic power. back in the day, hell, literally during our grandparents lifetime, it was the end all be all measure of a man. and these are recent developments...literally the last 20 years or so. women are outnumbering men in college and in advanced degrees now...meaning were going to see more and more households where women are the breadwinners. that trend is already in motion and if those degrees are any indication, its … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 07:20 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versai think this is just cultural brainwash. all those movies and shows where a much older guy successfully lands a much younger woman...I always use this example but that one movie where bill murray bangs scarjo in tokyo when shes like 25...like cmon dude, that doesn't happen. pervy old hollywood guy fantasy thyat hes trying to make mainstream. They made us think this was normal. media has a much bigger impact on people then they realize. and its come out over the last 5-10 years that the guys runn… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 07:15 PM |

| 0 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaAlso I see stuff like this pushed in the media a lot. but within my own life and observations, I think the majority of men are attracted to women near their age. it just gives both parties more to connect on. also a lot has changed in the last 100 years. women look damn good well into their 40s, sometimes beyond. besides, you dont always get to have what youre most attracted to, men or women. and yeah thats true about men in more stable life stages. but again a lot has chnged in the last 100 yea… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 06:50 PM |

| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI dont think they do think that...in fact, the people in here who have dated older women have said they experience more resistance from older women than younger ones. and what do you mean? science says women's sexual drive peaks throughout their 30s and even into their 40s. thats literally what the cougar thing is predicated on. hormone levels back this up...women go through a sexuality rev in the 30s and 40s... its kind of a biological push towards reproduction. anecdotal but my sex drive has g… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 06:12 PM |
| 0 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versayeah but that was also a function of a society in which there was more economic dependence on men. as that starts to equalize and women arent as dependent on men financially as they have been in the past, that will probably change. in fact, it might be that younger guys will be attracted to more established, successful women. I mean who here, man or woman, wouldnt have appreciated someone more stable and secure int heir 20s when they were figuring it out? its an attractive offer either way. plus… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 06:06 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versayeah i watched a lot of women in my family have to really take care of their husbands...and I mean like bathing them, wiping their butts, with no end in sight besides...well, you know. and when the end finally came, they obviously were grieving. and I was like damn...thats a really hard hand to be dealt for the last 15+ years of your life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 06:01 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versasperm quality goes down at 40...male fertility peaks at 30-35. also, we could still be talking about say, a 25 yo guy and 30 yo woman. they are both in peak condition for reproduction | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:59 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versalol.a lot of those marriages were from different times...where it was cultural creed that men should be older than women. that stats includes a lot of pervy older guys marrying teens...not aspirational | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:57 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versatheres still a lot of overlap in the venn diagram of women's fertility age and mens....20s and 30s. kind of peak time for both to have kids. male sperm quality also declines pretty significantly after 40. so just because they CAN, doesnt mean they SHOULD. besides, not all relationships are centered around reproduction | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:53 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaok, thats fair. more logical sense — especially from the women's POV. like why guarantee you're going to be taking care of/grieving your partner with damn near certainty? better you both go into it not knowing whos going to have that burden for the last 20 years of their life...and let it unfold however it does. you'll step up for him if he goes first, he'll step up for you if you go first. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:47 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versathere may be truth to this...but i just am not sure we should look to hollywood anymore. i think in recent years, its come out that hollywood is/has been unusually concentrated with exploitative, older pervy guys who managed to get predatory behavior to be normalized and considered more widespread than it is IRL because they used to have more centralized narrative control until the social media age. the harvey wiensteins and leonardo dicaprios are kind of extremes not just in terms of optionalit… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:43 PM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI think what made it a challenge for younger guys to date older women was that people grew up on movies where 50-something bill murray was banging 24 year old scarlett johassen in tokyo and other movies in which much older men hooked up with much younger women. the inverse was never/rarely seen. in recent years weve come to see that hollywood and media have been run by pervy old guys drooling over and exploiting young teen girls for a loooong time. that eras closing out, thank goodness. media re… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 05:19 PM |
| 2 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versasorry I actually thought you were responding to my other post in here....so my response was triangulating against something else. will circle back haha so scratch that earlier response | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 10:05 AM |
| 1 | it makes more biological sense for an older woman to date younger men than vice versaI think they do, to some extent. and arguably, this whole conjecture of "women only want guys with 6 ft and money and chiseled jaw lines" is one thread of that — that guy is probably going to produce healthy offspring. signs of women's fertility have long governed beauty standards. those are all a forms of "biological sense." that doesnt men you cant enjoy a good snuggle on a friday night though. And getting to that place is a pretty good sign you'll have reproductive success. It's not to say th… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/23 09:53 AM |
