1	Q4M: Why are you not hypergamous? From a male POV it just doesn’t make sense most of the time really. Most guys would prefer to date the bombshell 9/10 who works part time minimum wage instead of the 5/10 C suite girl who has 3 degrees. From our POV, that generally is the more logical path to take, because we oftentimes have very different things we value in our partners. More personally, a woman’s educational background or income has never really once appealed to me. Physical attractiveness and how much we connect with each oth…	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/02/25 07:20 PM
–	If TRP and men’s issues weren’t legitimate the left and blue pillers wouldn’t be actively trying to censor it at every turn People online said all those things. Actual voters, when asked, did not. The economy, inflation and immigration made up something like 60-70% of the reasons swing voters broke for Trump. Manosphere stuff maybe constituted maybe 1-2% of the reasons people broke for him, and even that's being generous because white working-class men are the only demographic Trump didn't make gains with.	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/25 07:51 PM
–	If TRP and men’s issues weren’t legitimate the left and blue pillers wouldn’t be actively trying to censor it at every turn It is absolute insidious censorship and propaganda and people saw through it and these tactics are a major reason Trump won. Culture war stuff routinely came up at the bottom of the list in 2024 exit polls. Nobody except the terminally online cares about this shit, overwhelmingly the most common reason given as to why swing voters broke for Trump was because the economy sucks and they wanted to try something new.	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/01/25 07:36 PM
11	How are young men being disenfranchised? If we had simply opened opportunities to women and they exceeded men, that’d be one thing. But that’s not what has happened, over the past several decades we’ve practically rigged society in favor of women. On the matter of schooling, for example, there are dramatically more scholarships available for women than there are for men just solely on the basis of their sex. That’s not a skill issue, that’s the government and private sectors just outright gaming the system in your favor so you have an …	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/01/25 05:54 PM
–	Immediate sex is not needed to prove desire. You just want sex. My statement would inherently include those men too.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/01/25 11:32 PM
–	Immediate sex is not needed to prove desire. You just want sex. Genuinely. Sometimes it seems like a solid 90% of the people here are not even close to emotionally healthy enough to be dating.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/01/25 10:41 PM
6	CMV: Hiding money and assets in a divorce should be illegal Given how outrageously rigged the system is in favor of women in this regard, I have zero issues with dudes trying to play the system.	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/01/25 10:40 PM
5	Perhaps women no longer being attractive to men as they get older is a good thing. I do not, no. I live in the US, west coast to be more specific. It's one of the least conservative places you could be, honestly. Sure, older women might have more baggage, but so do I. Everyone has things in their past, that's just part of aging, and part of being a healthy adult is being able to deal with and work through those things. I've certainly not struggled to form real and meaningful connections with women who have been through a lot. Quite the opposite even, some of my strongest conne…	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/01/25 09:56 PM
9	Perhaps women no longer being attractive to men as they get older is a good thing. Idk, I’ve never really struggled with women and now that I’m almost 30 I’m certainly finding women in their 30s to be more attractive than I did when I was in my early 20s. That’s not to say they’re inherently more attractive than an early to mid 20s girl or anything now; but I’ve increasingly come to think the wall is just another one of those terminally online ideas because it def isn’t matching my experiences, which tends to hold true for most things regarding the various pills.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/01/25 08:54 PM
3	Caring about women's orgasm is beta. they force men to do more beta things like going on date nights Fellas, is it gay to spend time with your woman?	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/01/25 10:12 PM
1	Why is it that if a man fell in love with his female friend, then it is believed that he just “wanted to get into her pants”? My personal experience has said otherwise, but it's just a battle of anecdotes at that point and I don't think either of us has any serious evidence backing up our views when it comes to this.	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/01/25 06:25 PM
1	Why is it that if a man fell in love with his female friend, then it is believed that he just “wanted to get into her pants”? I mean. The manospehere is telling guys all the time "if she doesn't fuck you the first time you meet, she is not attracted" This isn't really what the manosphere says, at least not in my exposure to it over the years. Those statements usually apply to a very specific type of girl instead of all women, namely those who put out ultra easily for flings and other types but make men they're interested in romantically wait for it, which almost always will make a man feel settled for and unattractive …	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/01/25 06:09 PM
0	If you have no kids, there´s honestly no reason not to leave your boring, unappealing husband/boyfriend and seek a better life Just doing something more than work and the gym tbh, it doesn’t even need to be anything crazy but do something interesting with your time. Guy said he doesn’t care for friendships, music, travel, he’s not spontaneous at all, etc etc. That hardly even sounds like a life, that just sounds monotonous to the extreme. I’d be desperate for change personally if that was me.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/01/25 10:04 PM
8	If you have no kids, there´s honestly no reason not to leave your boring, unappealing husband/boyfriend and seek a better life You sound remarkably dull to be around tbh. If you’re happy with it then you keep doing you, but even as a man that sounds boring as shit, I can’t imagine how women would feel about it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/01/25 11:25 AM
2	Q4M: Ever cry because a friend confessed her love to you? No, I cry maybe once every few years and it usually takes something very serious to make me do so.	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/01/25 02:52 AM
11	The main problem with many modern men is their need for approval from women A lot of it really just isn’t true, though, at least not for the US. Like, the claim that “men have every advantage in the world” just does not match the numbers we actually have. Women are more likely to get higher education, are more likely to own a home, will live longer, the only reason they haven’t overtaken young men in earnings is because women tend to work part time more and they avoid high paying but extremely dangerous jobs*, women are far less likely to be the victims of a crime, the …	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/25 01:11 PM
-3	Men Should Use a Filtering System for Commitment Like Women Do for Sex Genuinely. Always glad to see someone else with an actually grounded and healthy view on this stuff. Physical attractiveness is a lot more forgiving irl than it is on the apps and while it is still important, the other stuff you mention is way more important to LTRs imo. As an example, I put on quite a lot of weight during Covid and am still in the process of losing it, I for sure have a belly still. But I dress really nicely, I take care of my hair and skin as much I can, I’ve always been told …	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/12/24 12:15 AM
–	Q4W: So do you think broke men having sex is a red flag? What's the minimum income men should have to have sex? Believe it or not, the vast majority of sexual encounters do not end in a pregnancy.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/12/24 12:01 PM
–	How Women Have Devalued the Role of Boyfriend in Modern Dating So, I know it’s a VERY common take amongst Red Pill types that women will lose feelings for you or get the ick if you really open up emotionally, but I’ve honestly never had that happen, and without trying to sound like I’m bragging or pumping myself, I’m not exactly lacking on experience with women. Anecdotally, it’s been quite the opposite actually and they often feel good I’m so open with them and it makes us closer. Viewing stability and excitement as polar opposites also very much does not …	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/12/24 08:45 AM
1	Why is it some men both simultaneously look down on women but also seem to want their approval for everything like we are their mommy? Absolutely not true in my experience lol	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/12/24 10:45 AM
2	What would actually make a positive change for you men? So, anecdotally, therapy never really helped me much as a man. I ended up having to find my own ways to deal with my issues and that, more or less, did work. I won't try and dissuade other men from going to therapy but, personally, I don't think I ever will again.	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/12/24 12:21 AM
2	At what age does a man living with his parents becomes a red flag, ick or deal breaker? God, ain't this the truth. I'm turning 29 next month and most of my friend group is in the same age range +/- a few years and the only ones to have moved out are those in committed LTRs with a partner who can help pay. Unless you live somewhere with a crazy low CoL it's just not very economical to live on your own anymore.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/12/24 11:21 PM
12	CMV: Males should stop dropping out of the dating market Males need to step up like previous generations before them. Why would they? Women are nothing like their previous generations, so a lot of dudes feel no reason to do so either. Ladies can't have it both ways, if you want the clock turned back then that has to work both ways.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/12/24 03:42 AM
14	Are the men here mostly on the younger side and single? God, what an apt way of putting it. I'm subbed here because I generally find the gender war to be an interesting thing, but I was born in '96 and most of my personal circle are people who also were or are a bit older and there is such a massive disconnect between what I see irl and what I see said online. I'm not sure if it was just lack of proper socialization or growing up as iPad kids or what, but seeing dudes who are 18-24 talking about their experiences with women is nothing like mine. Feel…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/12/24 03:13 AM
3	Are the men here mostly on the younger side and single? I'm 28, no kids, and subbed because I find the general topic of modern dynamics to be interesting, but I can't relate to many of the younger dudes at all. It's just so radically different from my own and seems focused solely around being mad online.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/12/24 12:55 AM
–	Do you think the idea of the 666 is the sole reason why you, or some men struggle to get dates or sex? I said under 5'7, I'm pretty sure one of them is 5'4 or 5'5 (not exactly sure which, but I am probably half a foot taller than him if I had to guess) and he's married. I won't say his wife is a supermodel or anything, but she's certainly not a 3/10 either. He's skinny as hell and has a fairly high pitched voice (for a man at least) too. I only ever hear about this stuff online, irl pretty much all the short dudes I've known at least occasionally got dates or girlfriends.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/12/24 08:53 PM
–	Do you think the idea of the 666 is the sole reason why you, or some men struggle to get dates or sex? This just seems out of touch tbh. In genuinely almost every way I am a fairly average man, if just not being fat (which I am currently lol) gives me an incomprehensible level of privilege then the solution seems pretty clear, no? I don't even buy that height is that huge of a deal-breaker irl, I know a few guys my age who are under 5'7 and two of them are married.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/12/24 08:16 PM
–	Do you think the idea of the 666 is the sole reason why you, or some men struggle to get dates or sex? I'm American, I'm barely an inch above the average height, I'm not "tall" by any sensible definition. The only really exceptional thing about me is that I have an incredibly deep voice. And I've still never struggled with women, I'm 28 now and can still strike up conversations and meet new chicks pretty easily. People talk a lot about women having outrageous standards and, yeah, that might be true on the apps but has absolutely not been my experience irl. It really does seem like a lot of TRP ty…	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/12/24 07:54 PM
–	Do you think the idea of the 666 is the sole reason why you, or some men struggle to get dates or sex? I’m really not currently is the thing. I still have some Covid weight I’m trying to lose and for sure have a bit of a belly; but I’m also talking to multiple women currently and the last few times I’ve gone out and put effort into dressing up (wearing some of my suits and overcoats in this case) I got looks and compliments. Confidence and social skills go a really long way in person, way more than any 666 stuff will imho.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/12/24 07:10 PM
6	Do you think the idea of the 666 is the sole reason why you, or some men struggle to get dates or sex? No. Maybe on Tinder or Hinge it does, but not in the real world. I'm 5'10 and have never had a fully defined 6 pack but I've never struggled with women.	/r/PurplePillDebate	07/12/24 09:57 PM
1	People who only know shallow people typically are shallow themselves. Interesting to see you say that you loved your husbands longer hair. I was just reading about that very topic in a different sub last night, where some girls were saying they also liked long hair on men, and some dudes responding got weirdly defensive about it saying that’s not normal and most women don’t, etc etc. I, myself, am a dude who has always had longer hair and it’s always been one of the main things women compliment me on and immediately notice and like about me. Almost feels like me a…	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/12/24 03:05 AM
10	Invisible women exist just as much as invisible men. guys talk a lot of smack. average random guy would not have sudden random sex with a girl they arent really that attracted to but "is ok i guess" Na, most guys absolutely would. Maybe not to date but they would absolutely fuck. This is very much just you projecting your idea of sexuality onto men. My younger self had a lot of flings and ngl there were a good few chicks who were probably 4s that I still smashed because they offered and wanted it. While I do regret many things from how I treated w…	/r/PurplePillDebate	01/12/24 09:29 PM
1	How is FDS manupulative? Well yeah, that's sexual dimorphism in a nutshell.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/07/20 01:07 PM
