How are men being treated like second class citizens? You seem to keep blurring the line between sexual marketplace and public square. We strive for equality in the public square. The sexual marketplace is supposed to be competitive. The fact that it is more competitive now is better for the species overall. In the sexual marketplace, nobody deserves anything. You have to earn it. You are not guaranteed sex or a wife. This is not treating men as second class citizens.

The lack of social connections at work is the complaint of Gen Z entering the workforce. They don’t want to live life on the internet and devices all day, they want to meet and work in person. Be part of a community. There’s studies on your generation, they are quite revealing. Least amount of sex, drug use, alcohol use. Most academically focused. Y’all sure act like you’re preparing for the work world, whether or not you and your friends for that bill.

That last line doesn’t happen. Instead your friend either returns to you and says “sorry she’s not interested” or they just say nothing and you get to live in blissful ignorance.

Yeah you have to leave after. I thought that would have been obvious but good call. If you ask out someone at a party, you should do the same thing. Don’t overstay. Leave and make like you have other plans on the go. Leave it up to mystery.

When we talk about equality of the sexes, we are talking about in public life and in work and the law. Not whatever you’re talking about. You are the one claiming there should be equality in the sexual marketplace. I disagree. The sexual marketplace is competitive. The survival of our species depends on that fact.

It’s something that’s being talked about more broadly by regular non-incel people. There is a friendship epidemic compared to 30 years ago as well. The idea centres around “third spaces”. Your first place is home, your second place is work. Third places are the other places you go where you can meet people. We are having less and less of these third spaces. It used to be the default for this was church. Church attendance isn’t what it used to be and it isn’t the social central pillar that it onc…

I do think reading body language can be taught and this can help guys that struggle to read the room. I can sympathize for people who struggle with this. For me, I can almost feel what another person is feeling just by looking at them. It’s involuntary.

Both are creepy. “Hey, I’m going to be with some friends at this show tomorrow night, you should totally pop by” Is an acceptable ask. It doesn’t put the women on the spot to make a decision in front of your face. It gives her an out to say “I’m sorry but I have plans” without triggering you. In a meta sense this also shows you have fun no matter what and you have a good social circle, which makes you look more attractive.

Women always give the first signal when it comes to cold approach. Their body language screams it. As a bartender, I could tell when two people were “vibing” before they ever say words to each other. I do think men on the spectrum have issues with deciphering this and it leads them into trouble and endless internet theories about women being liars.

You go to shared social events and ask your friend, “hey is your friend over there single?”. Don’t complain about being single unless it’s to other guy friends.

You are a bit ignorant to what working conditions in other countries are like. We have it good in the US, relatively speaking. Worse than Europe but better than anyplace else. As a Canadian American, I can tell you that safety is taken MUCH more seriously by American companies than by Canadian companies. This is the positive side of a culture that adores law suits.

How many men are genuinely interested in helping women as a whole? I reckon not many. The mixed messaging by society is the problem. The problem isn’t women. Women biologically get the ick from weak or depressing guys. They can’t help it. We have to accept that. Men have to know to keep that to themselves and their close friends/family. Because what often happens, I have witnessed this myself, is a guy starts to get to know a girl and then he does a trauma dump. I’ve seen this happen with guys w…

/r/PurplePillDebate14/07/23 06:02 PM

It takes men more than 9 months. It takes constant effort. For women, what they go through with pregnancy and childbirth has no parallel in men. It is different in that it is an automatic process. It happens to the women whether she tries to or not. This is what I mean by women have their rites of passage biologically, whereas men have to have an external rite of passage to prove themselves.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/07/23 06:01 PM

Women have intrinsic value. They are the incubators of life. The issue women face is trying to find value in society outside of that role. That is a very real issue that they face, but it’s decidedly different than what men face. There is a reason many tribal societies have a rite of passage for men, but not for women. For women, the rite of passage happens automatically. It’s called puberty. Men have to earn it through a trial. This dichotomy is present across the globe in multiple cultures.

Good facial hair cut for your face and keep it clean. I’m a big proponent of the “every guy is a 7” theory. Get in shape, get a fresh hair and facial hair cut, get some fitting clothes. Any guy who does this is a 7. Add in personality and you’re in that magical top 20% of men.

They don’t mean depressed whiny men. They mean men who can cry at a sunset. Nobody likes to be around depression. You have to dig yourself out of that and rely on family and your closest friends.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/07/23 02:24 PM

Per your TikTok guy, I would argue it’s our puritanical culture that says men aren’t allowed to find women attractive. The frustration comes from seeing those pictures of women and feeling feelings that you have been taught are inappropriate. So they get mad at women for making them “sin”. I had a few middle eastern Muslim friends in university, they had to deal with this.

Whatever the reason, men have been taught to leave women in public alone. If women have a problem with not being approached in public, I don’t have much sympathy for that. You’re a human being yourself, go say hi if you want. Don’t expect men to make the first move in public while telling men to NOT do that.

Since woman are the ones at physical risk of rape or death from a man, they should be the ones initiating. A whole generation of men has been taught that they are all potential rapists. “Every man can rape” I was taught. One in five men are rapists, I was taught. We got the message and we act accordingly. We are trying to make a safer world for women. The women complaining about this need to give their head a shake, society did this for your benefit.

Women have been complaining about random men approaching them for decades. Sorry if some men heard that messaging and act accordingly. But I was raised to leave a women in public alone. Just by approaching a woman, you put her in a dangerous situation. She doesn’t know if you’re safe or not. Woman deserve or exist in public without being threatened. That’s what I was taught. Women need to learn to talk and engage themselves. It’s 2023. If you’re complaining that men aren’t lining up for you, I d…

I don’t believe many men are “too ugly” for blue pill advice either. It’s just guys are aiming too high. Either recognize the level you are at and date accordingly, or grind to improve.

The missing part for these guys is confidence. There are levels to friendship. Levels of openness, of vulnerability. A lot of guys will do trauma or depression dumping to someone who isn’t at the right level. This is just a buzz kill for anyone. Save this for your close friends, your ride and dies, and your family. For most friendships, at least at the start, you kinda gotta use social media rules. Only upbeat positive “posts”. Be upbeat, be a positive and encouraging person. Don’t be a doomsday…

I’ve seen it often enough to know it happens. Especially with large friend circles like in university. I was a bartender for a while. Got lots of “I need your advice as a guy” questions from drunk university girls. Women’s attraction is a lot more circumstantial and fluid then men, in my experience. Men make that yes/no decision within 5 seconds of meeting a women, but women are more flexible and have more variables.

Yeah the reasons are usually “I’m already in a relationship.” 30% of marriages, one or both partners was in another relationship when they first met. Guys on here want friendships/relationships to be categorized like an app, but real life doesn’t work that way.

I am fortunate enough to have had some relationships, and I have two younger sisters, so a lot of the “men are this, women are that” stuff doesn’t work on me.

Exercising has been a huge mental health game changer for me. It needs to stay as a permanent hobby. So any potential relationship has to support that activity. To that end, I would want a girl who goes to the gym everyday. I go to the local Y, so there isn’t really a problem of TikTok influencers and stuff. It’s the same handful of girls that are regulars there, and they’ve been coming for months/years. The absolute most unattractive quality in a partner that I’ve found is something an ex said …

Emotionally healthy people are capable of being vulnerable and opening up. Your emotions are like your bodies sensor systems. They give you important messages. Listen to them to decipher the message.

We live in a world with all types and kinds of relationships. Wether or not you agree with that “lifestyle”, they objectively exist. It’s useful to have a catch all term.

Somebody with no experience with relationships is going to have to learn all of these things. But many of these things are deal breakers in a relationship.

Hell no. I want an equal partner. A relationship should be a 1 + 1 = 3 situation. Some guys would be attracted to this because they have low self esteem and want to feel that they have you locked in. You are dependent on them so you can’t leave them. My mother was a nurse. Worked her butt off. That’s what I respect.

Being underweight as a guy is attractive to women. Not a bad thing at all.

Because OP is trying to make a sideways argument that people are happier in traditional gender roles in a traditional family. OP can’t include data that goes against the narrative they are spinning. Point blank, posts like this are disinformation.

You will end up on Tik Tok as one of those creepy ass guys. For fucks sake don’t do this or encourage people to do this!

The problem is you can’t tell which women is which from outside, so you just don’t do it. Ultimately, it’s this. Treat women as you would men. You don’t hit on men in public, so don’t hit on women in public. The goal is to treat men and women the same.

My last job had a whole thing about office relationships, and they were supposed to be reported to HR. It’s not considered appropriate anymore.

Jesus Christ that’s a scary attitude.

People don’t meet in these places anymore. It’s a bad call to do this at work for example. Women often complain about being hit on at work, don’t be a statistic.

If hygiene makes women tingle, then men should all focus on their hygiene.

Absolutely do not do this. Leave women in general public alone, they aren’t target practice for you to increase your skills.

Career woman wanting men who earn as much as themselves? They get mocked on here. Women also generally have hygiene on point everyday.

I don’t know how to tell you that you are living a life that guys on here would kill for.

Sure, they got in a relationship and then the guy was laid off. That’s not what I mean. I mean if you meet someone new, and you’re unemployed, they won’t be interested. Instant turn off. A guy has to be competent and being unemployed is a sign of incompetence.

You have multiple partners and get new ones on the regular. I’m sorry, but no you don’t get it.

For a lot of men, being themselves means never leaving the house and playing video games all day. Just work and chill at home. The obvious problem is that these guys won’t meet anyone at home. They want to meet a partner who also wants to chill at home, so they won’t be lonely. That’s why they need all these strategies and tips and theories, because being social isn’t being themselves. There are a lot of guys who, 50 years ago, would meet someone young at church then live a quiet life to themsel…

There are no places to meet people anymore, except online dating. Online dating is poison for men, it crushes your self esteem. People don’t believe in true love because Tinder is biased towards looks and lifestyle, and that’s the only way to meet people anymore.

Maybe in Ireland, not in North America. We have record numbers of single men in their 20s and 30s. This is because they are failing these basic standards.

Don’t we mock women for complaining about being lonely despite having plenty of options, just because they don’t meet some standards? Same rules apply here.

You can’t get relationship experience if you can’t get a relationship. It’s an oxymoron. As a man you have to work on what you can, and that’s yourself. If there were women willing to date me as I am now, I wouldn’t be on this sub.

For most guys, it’s not an option to switch dating on and off. They need to work on these things to have a chance at dating, to have any confidence in themselves. If you’re unemployed and overweight living at your moms, you’re not in a state to be dating. Fix your life a bit first. Life isn’t a romantic sitcom from the 90s.

You can be social and develop those skills without intention of dating anyone. Join a charity do some volunteering take a class. Don’t go out cold approaching women minding their own business in a grocery store just to grind experience points.

A “work in progress” won’t attract anyone. You need to be in decent shape, not expensive but nice appropriately sized clothes, have a steady career, nice hair cut and clean facial hair. These standards are bare minimum, far from perfection. Guys need to be taught to care for themselves a bit more. You can’t get away being a slob like your dad was.

Expressing vulnerability is expressing weakness. Weakness is unattractive. You need some dude friends to vent to. Have a beer, let it out, they tell you to suck it up and move forward. Ultimately dealing with your problems is on you, nobody can help you. You are the male, the provider. You are supposed to be the calm collected one. If you break that frame you break the image. Maintain frame at all times.

Where are these men who are being constantly shit on? Women’s standards are fairly straight forward. Be in shape, dress in fitting clothes, basic hygiene, have a job with career growth. These are like life basics for everyone but it applies to men. You used to have to get the father of a woman’s permission, and they would check you on these things. This is nothing new.

Therapy is to get you to work on yourself, not a paid buddy who tells you that you are great.

Prostitution won’t fix the problem. The problem is men need to feel accepted. Paying for someone to have sex with you reinforces that nobody will accept you. The solution isn’t for women to lower their standards though. Men need to use this to motivate themselves to be better men.

It’s always said as a threat. Yet when you push these guys for what they actually want - government assigned concubines? Sexual communism? - they get silent.
