| 5 | Women want to be sexy, but hate the men who sexualize them'Women only dress up for themselves' is one of those nonsensical Reddit talking-points. It sounds feminist and absolute, and signifies tribal allegiance to the kind of leftist feminism common on Reddit. But it's also obviously irrational, and nobody who actually acknowledges the reality of the situation would believe it. The people advocating it just like the idea that women are all feminist girlboss icons sticking it to the patriarchy and not caring about men, even when they're aware that women… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/08/25 04:20 PM |
| 8 | Hot take: (CMV) The "Healthy Masculinity" feminism pushes is more toxic than the toxic masculinityI mean, obviously a lot of what Reddit portrays as 'positive masculinity' feels fake, because the people talking about it don't care about masculinity. They just want to take their own, feminist ideology, and wrap it up as 'masculine.' Like most things on Reddit, it's motivated by internet politics and ideology without any concern for reality. However, feminists off the internet don't always subscribe to any particular vision of 'positive masculinity.' People's preferences concerning the other g… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/25 05:20 PM |
| 26 | Do charities like this one really have good reasons to be gynocentric?Women and children are always seen as more vulnerable and victimized. So setting up a charity in their name makes it much easier to get donations, because people will be more sympathetic towards it. Women are seen as perpetual victims, and, because of feminist vilification of men, we are now seen as perpetual oppressors, rapists and predators, who are worse than bears. People then get shocked when young men are hostile towards modern liberal feminism. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 19/07/25 03:46 PM |
| 6 | r/MensLib is the Richard Reeves of subredditsIt's not just controlled opposition, it's Reddit controlled opposition. It's a bunch of Reddit feminists trying to pretend that they're also in favour of men, even though they're misandrist to the core. They spend more time insisting that they aren't hateful and care about women too, and such little time talking about actual men's issues that it comes across as disingenuous. Honestly just an embarrassment of a sub. | /r/MensRights | 15/07/25 06:38 PM |

And most of what he was saying at the time was love letters like, "You to whom nature has given spirit, sweetness, and beauty, you who alone can move and rule my heart, you who know all too well the absolute empire you exercise over it!"

| -1 | Is there any redpill movies or any movies or shows that reinforced your belief?Sure, but the 'bluepill' ideas which TRP distinguishes itself from aren't necessarily a transhistorical 'default.' It's true that the bluepill is an artificial construct which is nebulously defined, but I also wouldn't reduce the redpill to a 'rebrand' when there wasn't a brand in the first place. Before the modern default or 'bluepill,' previous ideas often resembled the redpill and would be considered controversial today.

| 2 | Is there any redpill movies or any movies or shows that reinforced your belief?That's because Bond's story comes from an era where those ideas were more common.

| 0 | Is there any redpill movies or any movies or shows that reinforced your belief?That's not a nuanced enough take IMO. Many 'redpill' ideas were fairly common in previous generations, when it wasn't even possible to 'rebrand' the bluepill because it wasn't invented yet. Both the 'bluepill' and 'redpill' are modern constructs, and before that there wouldn't have been as much of a distinction. The redpill is often based on patriarchal norms which were common in previous societies, but would generally be rejected by the modern bluepill. Ultimately, feminism may have become comm… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/06/25 06:33 PM |
| 1 | If I want to know what kind of men women truly find desirable, should I look at (A) husbands OR (B) the men you are crushing on, flirting with, swiping right on, hooking up, having sexual flings, FWB and situation-ships with?Yeah, plenty of men who are literally psychopaths and view others as objects have been highly sexually successful. We shouldn't pretend that people who are sexually successful are some kind of respectful, genteel ideal, when in practice they're often quite brash. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/06/25 08:55 AM |
| 2 | The same instinct and drive that makes men want to sleep with women is the same instinct and drive than makes women be extremely selectiveWhereas with men it's a case of if she hits a bear minimum standard, she's a potential option and you're happy to explore a relationship with her and probably have sex with her. Absolutely. When your average man looks at a woman, his first thought is about how much she resembles a bear. If she has, say, a thick coat of fur and large teeth, then she's relationship material. She hits a minimum standard for bear-ness. Given a choice between a woman and a bear, men will always choose the bear. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/06/25 03:53 PM |
| 6 | If I could guarantee you that 1 out of every 40 guys you approach is your ideal man, would you start cold approaching? Why or why not?Yeah, tbh most of this thread is a knee-jerk reaction to the idea of approaching men, rather than a rational response to the scenario put forwards in the OP. Most people don't get the opportunity to meet their dream partner at all, but people here are saying they'd turn down a simple 1/40 guarantee of approaching him? That's as weird as turning down a genie's three wishes because you hate lamps. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/06/25 01:55 PM |
| 1 | If I could guarantee you that 1 out of every 40 guys you approach is your ideal man, would you start cold approaching? Why or why not?In this case, do we even know that he 'doesn't like' to approach? The woman, since she has a guaranteed payout, has much more incentive to approach strangers in the OP situation. Men might not feel the need to approach random women who they're just passing by, because they simply don't know her and have better venues to approach women. But since she knows that 1/40 is going to be ideal, she has much more reason to approach. Most men who aren't literal PUAs won't be approaching unknown women all … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/06/25 01:40 PM |

Objectively, the upper-class daughter of a millionaire has much more social status than a cashier.

But it could still survive, simply because it's a massive industry and gives people a big occasion to look forward to.

Constantly cautioning men to not approach women, or focus on various forms of self-improvement, is often a distraction. Often, men are rewarded for being brash or confident, and that can include behaviour that can be labelled insensitive. Part of that is due to the expectations of men being confident, showing leadership and taking the initiative in the dating process, which is founded on… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/25 11:55 AM |
| 7 | Women and men behave exactly the same in dating, it’s just women get more opportunity to act cold and selfish so it’s thought to be “their nature”Is anybody claiming that it's necessarily a ruse? It's not surprising for a big businessman or monarch to be less humble than someone with low social status. That doesn't mean that either of them is putting on a self-conscious ruse or being ingenuine. Their mentality can be genuine and also a reflection of different circumstances. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/25 11:30 AM |

While greater opportunity can influence female behaviour, it's still the case that both genders have evolved through millions of years of social and evolutionary pressure to behave differently and show different mating behaviour. The difference in male and female roles in mating is present in a large amount of species, not only in humans, and therefore portraying it as just universal 'human nature' is overstating the point.

| 3 | One of the biggest reasons for the discrepancy of sexualization and the argument over approach and effort is the 'education of sexiness'. Many men overlook this and simply believe women are genetically "blessed to be more attractive than men"; and that women put in no effort at all to make a move.Saying that magazines sell garbage? That's not even criticizing women, it's criticizing magazines for giving unrealistic or misleading advice. Surely it's not that controversial that magazines can give an unrealistic portrayal of reality. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/05/25 07:41 AM |

Many men overlook this and simply believe women are genetically "blessed to be more attractive than men"; and that women put in no effort at all to make a move.Absolutely. OP is ignoring that men have lower standards. Both women and gay men find sex more easily, despite the men not having the same upbringing. When women try to live up to male standards, often their idea of what's 'sexy' to men is completely warped. A lot of weird plastic surgery stands as a testament to this. However, men typically find women attractive more readily and with lower standards, regardless of her behavior.

Modern feminist culture takes male gender roles to extremes, for example by portraying men as caricatured hyper-masculine rapist animals worse than a bear. The same people who compare men to bears and scream #MeToo, are also reading romance novels with abusive, wealthy, domineering male leads (who are optionally werewolves), and hating on men who are under 6'0 and hence seen as 'less masculine.'

As such, I feel like politicizing the movement would be uncalled for, it's inevitable that many men who care about men's issues will instinctively shy away from left-wing politics.

Secondly, humans are evolutionarily programmed to seek sex and procreate, so obviously that can play an important role in people's emotions and motivations.

Feminism has been used as a tool by TPTB to justify wars against the Middle East, as well as to back up racism against Asians. The elite have turned feminism into a weapon to divide people.

It's taking wider cultural issues, which are often economic or related to gang violence, and tries to use it to vilify disenfranchised young males and treat them as a perpetual threat.

| 2 | Dating Apps Will Never "Fix" Themselves—They’re Built to Make Sure Men StruggleThat's over-simplifying. Realistically, dating apps were a response to a business opportunity, but they are also set up in a way which tries to extract as much money from users as possible. This can be to the detriment of users. Many products on the market can be unhealthy or function as a Skinner box in order to get more money out of users. That's what the OP probably means by 'built,' they are built in a way which can be inimical to users' relationship goals. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/03/25 11:36 AM |
| 4 | Why are there never forums of people trying to decode men in the same way people try and decode womenObviously, Reddit is misandry central. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/03/25 07:46 PM |
| 12 | To Women ,High Tier Men and Low Tier Men are 2 entirely Different Genders with Different Rules.<image> It's not just the media tbh. People claim that this stuff is only 'online,' but realistically it's everywhere and they just don't want to acknowledge the excesses of their own side. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/03/25 05:13 AM |
| 5 | To Women ,High Tier Men and Low Tier Men are 2 entirely Different Genders with Different Rules.They ignored the content of the post, and just replied because of how offended they are that someone was being sympathetic towards low-tier men. The OP went out of his way to stress that he wasn't just talking about lack of sex,, but the automatic response was 'nobody owes you sex, inkwells!' They're not replying to the post, they're just expressing their disgust towards low-tier males. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/03/25 05:06 AM |
| 6 | Do men understand how much women are influenced by the subconscious fear of men?100%, you could replace 'men' in the OP with 'black men,' and it would still be basically the same thing. Plenty of racists would say the same thing about blacks or Arabs, it's textbook bigotry. People think that bigotry and misandry is fine, as long as you're on their side. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/03/25 04:42 AM |
| 7 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.She's just trying to support misandry, ignore it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 07:03 PM |
| 6 | "If they're still single in their mid-30s there's a reason" - why is it OK for women to say this about men, but not the other way round?Feminists like to gaslight about this, but their talking-points are all myopic and have no understanding of men at all. Men find younger women more attractive, and obviously physical attraction is a significant part of relationships for most men and women. But feminists insist on making up artificial reasons for this preference, such as 'older women won't date them,' and 'they want to prey on and manipulate the woman.' This ignores male preference, and rephrases it all as a big conspiracy agains… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 07:04 PM |
| 3 | Most “I want a traditional woman” claims translate to “I want a woman who can rely on me so she won’t be able to leave”You said that the exception was for men who follow genuinely 'traditional' values. I think that a man can be attracted to a female gender role without subscribing to a whole lifestyle, just like women can read erotica about werewolves or want a dominant partner without going into the woods and turning Catholic. That doesn't suggest that it's a scheme to entrap women. People are allowed to want what they want. I think there are definitely trad LARPers among the most dedicated manosphere participa… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/25 10:20 PM |
| 5 | Even if the "nice guys" have hidden selfish motives, they are still infinitely better than the honest “bad boys”.That's just a part of pretty privilege and the halo effect. People will attribute positive traits to the men they find desirable, and claim that unattractive 'nice guys' are worse even if they're actually well-meaning. This kind of irrational assumption is at the basis of a lot of discussions of this issue. The claim that 'bad boys' are actually better is merely a rationalization of this attraction, just like the similar belief that 'He secretly has a heart of gold' and 'I can fix him.' Ultimate… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/25 10:04 PM |
| 9 | Most “I want a traditional woman” claims translate to “I want a woman who can rely on me so she won’t be able to leave”Women are allowed to desire men who fit traditional masculine gender roles, who are eg. tall, dominant and strong. But now you're psychoanalyzing males for wanting the same thing? Traits such as submissiveness and humility are a part of female gender roles, and men are allowed to want that just like women do. Women read books like 50 Shades of Grey which fetishize extreme examples of masculine gender roles. Men meekly dare to want a more traditional partnership, and get portrayed as monsters for… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/25 09:53 PM |
| 4 | The Blue Pill: A System is What it DoesThat's exactly correct. The redpill is just a counterweight to modern feminism, which has taught boys unnatural ways to behave. It works for normal guys, because it just reminds them of things that past generations would have taken for granted. Instead of being couched as a doctrine, it could also be rephrased as some simple truisms, eg. 'You don't have to always act nice to women, you can push back and let them earn compliments. Most women want a partner, not a simp.' | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/02/25 12:17 AM |
| 2 | I don't understand the obsession with the Just World Fallacy on this sub#BelieveAllWomen has evolved into Redditors thinking that women can never be flawed or inconsistent, and that anyone who suggests women might act like flawed humans is being misogynistic. Most people act on subconscious biases or instincts sometimes, and will rationalize their actions in ways which don't fully reflect the actual motivation. But somehow women are to be taken on their word whenever they talk about themselves, like some form of papal infallibility. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/01/25 09:24 AM |
| 11 | Q4Men: how would you feel if your wife made these typically “male” comments/ posts online?These aren't 'typically male'. They sound like average girls posting on TikTok. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/01/25 06:37 PM |
| – | “Women are wonderful” effect…There is no such thing as the "women are wonderful" effect. The WAW effect has been studied and demonstrated in practice, it doesn't matter what you think about 'collectivist thought' a priori. You're just letting your abstract viewpoints blind you to an obvious empirical truth. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/01/25 11:11 AM |
