| 2 | Were you more physically attracted to your hookups/situationships/fwbs compared to your more serious partners?Such a misandrist way of looking at sex and at men. No. Well not all men, but I think for most men (or atleast a lot of men) the validation they would get from casual sex trumps whatever shit they get in a relationship. A woman wants you so much she's willing to fuck you despite being a relative stranger. Thats validating. You get to be the AF in the AFBB, thats validating. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/09/24 10:54 PM |

| 1 | Its so hard to not believe in the RedPillThe NyPost article literally quotes a study. Hardly cherry picking. Also p sure a big part of the red pill IS self improvement. Sure. Go look at the statistics. Educate yourself on the depressing shithole that modern dating is. Maybe throw in some biology to justify that position a little more, entrench your beliefs a little further. Because it’s all true. It’s all fucking true. Humanity is a shitfest and the reason why the redpill is so effective is because for a lot of people it’s TRUE. It spe… | /r/ExRedPill | 23/09/24 12:58 AM |
| 2 | Would you prefer your son to be a genuinely good person who can't get a date, or a sexually irresistible asshole?The point is that you (and no woman for that matter) would have given enthusiastic consent to sleep with a man they were not attracted to. And so for men, women wanting to sleep with them is inherently validating. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/09/24 10:51 PM |
| 1 | Inexperienced men should lie about their lack of sexual historyYou would still need a normative view that describes what you approve or disapprove of. It doesn't negate any normative views on right and wrong. The point is that there can be no normative view because right and wrong are utterly subjective, situational, and dependent on both context and observer. I'll explain this simply - I'm okay with lying when I don't feel its bad. I'm not okay with lying when I feel it's not bad. Basically everyone accepts that moral right and wrong exists, even if purely… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/09/24 06:42 PM |
| 1 | Inexperienced men should lie about their lack of sexual historyYes, but it goes further with some branches of non-cognitivism conjecturing that all ethical statements are really expressions of an emotional state or desire. And thats what I consider ethics to be. Personally I'm not guided by any formal code of ethics at all. I just accept that any kind of moral outrage I feel at something is just an emotional desire and I accept that. That is why I will sometimes be okay with acts that society deems unethical - because my conscience isn't being triggered. Ly… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/09/24 06:32 PM |

| 2 | Inexperienced men should lie about their lack of sexual historyI think its more - I need experience to get my first job, so let me get experience by hook or by crook.

| 3 | Would you prefer your son to be a genuinely good person who can't get a date, or a sexually irresistible asshole?None of that matters as much as being a treating your fellow human beings in an ethical manner. Thats why I said it's a value. Values are subjective. Sex doesn't validate that someone is attractive or desirable. It just shows that the person they had sex with wanted sex. Sex with someone consenting enthusiastically basically validates that that person is attractive.

Its the being desired and validated (via sex) is the only thing that matters. If it was only about sex, incels would just get hookers. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/09/24 04:37 PM |

| 12 | Positivity Time! Say something nice about the opposite sex, or say something you feel bad the opposite sex has to deal with!I feel women are far more empathetic than men (by a mile and then some). And I think men should really prioritize making friends with women. ETA: I wish women didn't have this pressure to look skinny. I know a LOT of men who into naturally curvy women.

| -1 | Being liked for my personality instead of my appearanceI think the point you're not getting this that regardless of what it feels like, the reality is that it's the other person's intentions that matters. I don't agree in this instance, because the OP is talking about how HE feels. And how he feels is not linked to the intent of the compliment giver, but to the compliment itself. Personally, if I were in this situation, it would drive me to go to the gym obsessively if I don't already.

| 3 | Being liked for my personality instead of my appearanceI think its because for men, since we never get compliments on our appearance as opposed to our character traits, getting a compliment on our physical form feels more valuable/validating and thus more genuine.

And I wish the BluePill had solutions for me like the RedPill does, instead of just pathologizing my desire. I don't want to take the RedPill, it just feels like nobody else is telling me how I can be more masculine than I currently am to get the validation I crave.

| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.His earlier statement was very different and an insult. he is saying that the validation wont fill you, you may feel high for a while but then you ll crave it more and more until you became a slave of it like a drug addict of their drugs, Im okay with that. I just want to chase that high to death. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 11:35 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.You're putting you're entire self-worth on the opinion someone else has off you. That alone will prohibit you from achieving what you want to achieve This is confusing to me - youre saying that what I want to achieve will prohibit me from achieving it ? Like if I want X then I wont get X ? Wot ? You really should try out therapy 10 years, 6 different therapists. Setraline, Escitalopram, Fluoxetine, Fluvoxamine, Paroxetine, Vilazadone, Buspirone, Clonazepam, Lorazepam, Etizolam, Alprozalam. All t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 11:33 PM |

| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.For me, I'd rather become a Chad myself or die trying. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 05:38 AM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Err, what ? You don't play with AF/BB, its a concept thats supposed to illustrate dating dynamics. So unless you're arguing that a man should not date at all, you'll always be playing with AF/BB. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 05:35 AM |
| 3 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Its not just about feeling desired, but how desired am I in comparison to the guys in her past. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 05:00 AM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.You're taking men to task here for being insecure but guess what, insecurity is a good thing. No I'm not saying that insecurity is a bad thing. Just that the AF/BB fear is fuelled due to insecurity and need for validation | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 04:52 AM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.If you’re still searching for validation I don’t see you as someone who’s ready to date or able to be a good partner. I disagree. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 04:51 AM |
| 6 | The real pill that explains modern dating in the WestEven Chad has to put maximum investment to get Stacy to marry him and have kids he can only do the casual sex stuff with women who are below him looks wide. Disagree. Chad gets casual with his looksmatch. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 04:50 AM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Nah, I think most people here dont lie. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 12:36 AM |
| 4 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Thank you for the advice! I will absolutely do this. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 12:10 AM |
| 3 | The real pill that explains modern dating in the WestThe problem with this argument is that some men DO sucessfully get a lot of casual sex. And when other men don't get that, it triggers self doubt and insecurity. If it was only about investment (grand gestures etc), then all those fuckboys wouldnt be getting laid. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/09/24 12:09 AM |
| – | The fear of being used for sex is really about insecurity and validation.Lmao, a parody of my post!!! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:59 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.The woman who wants you more than anyone else at first sight, and the woman who wants you more than anyone else after 10 years will probably not be the same woman. I mean thats easy. To even get to 10 years she must first find me more attractive than other men on day 1. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:46 PM |
| 2 | Why do you find dating hard?I mean if I'm balding and short then I'm 1) hitting the gym every damn chance I get 2) saving money to get surgeries (jaw implant, hair transplant, even a limb lengthening surgery) Although tbh in my experience short isnt that much of a problem. But Im also not North American, so ymmv. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:45 PM |
| 8 | Why do you find dating hard?Yeah but the way I see it, you need to have both good looks (to get a chance) and not be an ahole (to convert the chance into sex). Tbh Im not sure what crying about "women chosing the best looking guy" achieve. It wont change what people are attracted to anymore than the Sun will rise from the South. Much better to make yourself attractive instead. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:33 PM |
| 5 | Why do you find dating hard?I mean sure, but the moment she found out they got sent to the curbside. Looks help, but being an ahole kinda cancels it out dontcha think ? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:28 PM |
| 0 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Eh no, because for me, being compared to other men and being seen as more masculine is validating, and an ego stroke that feels so incredibly good. I crave that feeling. And otoh not having that feeling is painful + emasculating. Even if theres no fear of cheating/cuckoldry, the pain of emasculation still exists. Like suppose if she cheats on me with a guy who isnt as good as me in bed for whatever reason, Id break up with her due to the disrespect. But I wont FEEL cuckolded, because to me, that… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:25 PM |
| 11 | Why do you find dating hard?Umm, how is this the power of looks ? Those men lied, or didnt tell her that they were criminals. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 11:16 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I honestly dont agree with that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:51 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Aye, those are the things Im slowly working on. Ive started working out 2x a day and learning about fashion/style. Saving up money to buy quality clothes etc. Also figuring how to kill social and approach anxiety by staying out 15-16 hours a day 6xa week either working/studying or in social hobbies. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:45 PM |
| 0 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.women who mostly act the same. Tbh I dont buy this. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:41 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Aye. Im v limited tbh in the # of things I have to be the best in. Idc if Im not the funniest, the best cook, makes the most money, has the most social status etc. Only two things I want to be the best at 1) Physically attractive 2) Best in bed. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:35 PM |
| 3 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.you can’t be happy with insecurity running your life. you’ll never be able to stop yourself from wondering “is she really telling the truth?” I disagree actually, Im p sure the "is she telling the truth" bit wont happen to me. And if for some reason it actually did, Id walk away and find someone with whom I dont feel it. Ive come close to having a relationship where I genuinely had 0 doubts that she would ever lie to me. Didnt happen due to distance. Oh well. But the idea that this insecurity is… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:32 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.If a girl isn’t all over me at some point during first date, then I just throw in the towel and don’t bother texting her back. That could be a useful approah. I think I'll borrow this. Thank you! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:18 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.There was a time when I obsessed over how much my cock was being craved and it kinda ruined the first relationship I ever had actually. Thank you for sharing your personal life story, that is actually quite interesting. However, I dont think this will happen in my case because I crave the being craved part so much, that not having that will ruin any relationship Id be in. So if I cant get that from a relationship, its not a good one for me. And nothing else the relationship could give me (compan… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:10 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Not too much, because I have no other way to know if Im the best. If however I do find out later that Im not the best, Id leave immediately. I know its a hypothetical but if I found this out when she was dying of cancer or we had a child together, Id still leave asap and never talk to her again. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:06 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Based on WHAT? You understand that the brains and hormones are gendered distinct RIGHT Doesnt mean theyre not complex. Its why different men can want diametrically opposite things. No, in fact make them want you more. No, I dont buy this. Afaik most women would not want to date a violent criminal. Some do sure, and those cases stand out and stick in your memory. But its not the norm. Same as how people worry about gun violence and not about dying in a car crash. We are talking about the most suc… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 09:05 PM |
| 5 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Thanks I guess. Although I do wish you were less sarcastic about it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:57 PM |
| 5 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I dont need constant reassurance. But I do need it atleast once. Furthermore, you will truly never be happy if that’s your standard for a strong relationship I disagree with the above statement. I think I will be happy if I get the validation I crave. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:56 PM |
| 4 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I agree. I never want a woman to lower her standards. Men who argue for that dont make any sense to me. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:55 PM |
| 3 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Thats fine. Youre right I havent had sex. But theres.plenty of men who have had sex who think the way I do. Who absolutely need to be the best a woman has had before committing to her. So I dont think what Im saying is ridiculous at all. Its fine that you disagree, clearly you value different thing. But me (and Id argue that a large plurality of men) do value being the best theit partner has had, and the validation implicit in that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:54 PM |
| 8 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Normal people don’t make a hierarchy of all the people they’ve ever fucked and who was the best. They just focus on what they have now. Eh, I can show you threads from across the web where women have been asked if their husband is the best or exbf (and also who they lusted after more) and MANY MANY women said the husband isnt the best but that doesnt matter because theyre in love. So youre wrong about this. Many many women have said they did not marry the best sex of their life. Probably because… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:51 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Do you think that you are relationship material here? The point of the relationship (for me) is validation, ie to be the best fuck material. The other things that you get from a relationship (like companionship) I dont value all that highly. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:39 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I mean once I know Im better than her exes, I wont worry. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:36 PM |
| – | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Dude, you got to let this go or you’re never going to have a normal relationship. I honestly can't. I'll either have a relationship on my own terms (where I am validated) or Ill just kill myself if thats not possible. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:33 PM |
| 7 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Its not about whether shes sexually attracted to you or not. But more about the intensity of her lust and desire for you versus othet men in her past. Like a good example would be the Netflix show Sex/Life where the protagonists lusts after her ex far more than she does her husband. Nobody wants to be second best for their partner. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:29 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Not if I take precautions. I suspect I'll always have one foot out the door, in any relationship. That would be my way of preserving my heart, always willing to leave at the first sign that shes not as into me as she was into others. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:22 PM |
| 8 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Im not even sure what you mean by that, but this feels more like an ad hominem. Id appreciate it if you discussed the issue as opposed to trying to insult me. Edit: I see youve edited your statement. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:14 PM |
| 3 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Thats also fair reasoning. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:09 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Lol, Ive had 'help' and that was fairly useless. Only thing that'll make me feel good is validation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:08 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Fair. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:07 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Umm, I dont think its fair to generalize women that way. If men can be complex and varied (and they are), then so can women. criminals have more children Sure, but not all women will go with a criminal. In fact Im p sure revealing that youve been to jail will make most women run away from you. make leads of romance are glorified abusers Depends on the romance. Yes 50SOG dude is one. But the K-Drama dudes arent(in the Kdrama atleast). they show inclinations toward dark triad men Yeah but afaik th… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:06 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Thank you! I will certainly go after what I want, irrespective of what Reddit thinks. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:02 PM |
| 0 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Yeah but the fear is that she finds the guy not AS attractive as the men she slept with instantaneously. But there are other qualities of the man she dates (kindness, empathy etc etc) that make up for it. Furthermore it becomes a bit of an epistemic problem because the men always wonder if she actually lusts after them as much as she did her hookups and ONSes. The only way to know for sure is to 1)be the guy who she sleeps with asap and 2)the woman tells him she lusts after him way more than any… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 08:01 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.For me, even though the rational part of me can recognize and acknowledge that it is black and white thinking... the emotional part of me that craves that validation cannot be overruled. So I'd say this limitation is absolute. Atleast for me. And prolly for other men also. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:55 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Yeah, I saw women say they did. And give reasons for it to - (they liked him genuinely and didnt want to be seem as easy by him, versus the other guy who they didnt care if he hung around or not so they just hit it and quit it). I do find that reasoning believable. I just feel that even with that reasoning, my need for validation (which I get when she sleeps with me asap because to me it makes me feel like Im more of a man than her past partners) outweighs it | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:53 PM |
| 1 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.If she just makes me wait until I introduce her to my family, put a gold ring on her finger and take her on a honeymoon when other guys don't have to I think women DO desire you if they're doing the ring & honeymoon thing. Just not in the way they desire the guy who didnt have to wait. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:50 PM |
| 3 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.Would you? Or is she interested on the other things that marriage brings like resources? I mean Ive seen women on this subreddit on similar threads say they absolutely desire their husband. And I dont think its fair to say theyre lying (they get nothing by lying on an anonymous forum). So yeah I do think you can be desired in a relationship, even if she made you wait. There's no such thing as desire for being kind. I disagree. Just look at K-Drama protagonists women lust over. A big part of thei… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:47 PM |
| 5 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I hope you're not using "insecure and validation" as some kind of weapon to diminish men. Dont worry, AF/BB is something I struggle with myself. Id never diminish someone over it. I guess I just want to feel validated through womens lust for me. Would you like to be in a relationship with a woman who's meh about you sexually, OP Obviously not, but its more than just being into me sexually. For me, she has to be into me MORE than with any other guy in her past. Otherwise the thought of me being l… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:44 PM |
| 2 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.I mean, I dont intend to ever have kids or get married, so family court isnt applicable to me. Id still feel broken if a woman I liked made me wait but not some other dude in her past. And I feel thats because it makes me feel emasculated by questioning my desirability compared to the previous guy. So I cant agree that its all about men being mad that they were lied to. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:39 PM |
| -4 | The fear of AF/BB is really about insecurity and validation.But you would also be desired in a marriage or a relationship where the woman initially made you wait. I feel it has more to do with being desired in specific ways - like being desired for being hot, over being desired for being kind. And thus I feel its more about validation, because womens lust for us is what validates us. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/09/24 07:36 PM |
