| – | Is true that men marry the convenient women they CAN have, while spend their lives secretly obsessing over the women they truly desire but can't have?Yeah, pretty much. It’s why half of marriages do not work or their husbands are absolutely miserable. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/07/26 09:28 AM |
| – | Women get autoimmune disorders more than men because they have it worseWomen probably wouldn’t be so stressed if they didn’t actively hunt the same 20 dudes per 100 dudes. That’s my guess. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/06/26 10:21 PM |
| 2 | Is true that men marry the convenient women they CAN have, while spend their lives secretly obsessing over the women they truly desire but can't have?Yes, most men can’t have the woman they really want. 80% of men have to 100% compromise or be alone for the rest of their lives. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/06/26 09:06 PM |

| 9 | Does anyone care that dating is better now for women?I don’t agree. Her friends exacerbate the issue. In the rare example, maybe she doesn’t care about height and wearing heels. If her friends care about height which is probably the case, she is ultimately going to care about height as well - especially if she is wearing heels with her friends and their SOs. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/06/26 03:09 PM |
| 3 | Does anyone care that dating is better now for women?Correct. For the top-tier men, they will put up with scrutiny. For any man that might be average, she will cave to the possible scrutiny and disengage with the average schmo. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/06/26 02:17 PM |
| 10 | Does anyone care that dating is better now for women?There is more concentration on what her friends think on social media. That’s the difference. If she doesn’t think she will get comments like, “you go girl”, “you guys look amazing together, or “I’m so jealous!”, then she’s not going to give you the time of day. Her 50 point checklist becomes more like an 80 point checklist after you factor in what her friends think about a dude. This is why so many women chase the top 20% of men. Back in the day, you didn’t have that level of scrutiny. This is … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/06/26 01:58 PM |

D treats you well, respects boundaries, has decent moral compass, and is totally invisible in your scenario. D is boring. D is ok.

After that every green flag becomes a red flag and ultimately a swipe left. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 09:49 PM |
| -2 | Loyalty is useless alone.I definitely have sympathy for women that have been played but it’s difficult to maintain. Women make all of the rules for dating and have 100% the advantages of that superiority. You are a woman that has made the choice to disengage yourself from dating to not be hurt. I respect that. There are good men out there that didn’t make that choice and are just cast to the side because they don’t meet the genetic standards or the woman-imposed rules of dating. So, it’s very difficult to date in the 21… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 09:47 PM |

| – | Women are larping loneliness.I think women use things like style and confidence as eliminating factors not inclusion factors. For example, you can be short dude that’s confident and dresses well, you are going home to an empty house. Tall, good looking dude wearing a ratty t-shirt, moping with his buddy over their 6th beer, he’s always got a shot. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 06:01 PM |
| -1 | Loyalty is useless alone.This isn’t about admiration, it’s about loyalty. If the dude isn’t attractive hot enough she will absolutely shrug off an act of disloyalty. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 05:36 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.Most men do not even get to that point for women to see any type of behavior that you are describing. She has eliminated that dude before he has uttered a word. When you have options, you can do that. When you have zero options, well let’s just say that’s the average man’s experience. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:36 PM |
| -3 | Loyalty is useless alone.No, not joking. Women will put up with it for a hot dude. Once the dude stops being hot and isn’t getting positive validation then she will kick him to the curb. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:25 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.That was just an example of what an internal thought I was having concerning how someone I wouldn’t considered at all became an attractive option. You are saying that if a dude isn’t attractive to a woman, he’s not an option. I put up a counter to that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:24 PM |
| 0 | Loyalty is useless alone.I’m not projecting men’s thoughts onto women at all. I definitely know women today that definitely think this way today. Caring about how their friends view their man and the amount of likes they get when they take pictures together is very important to the modern woman. If you are an average dude, you are pretty screwed in this environment. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:21 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.The type of cereal wasn’t the point🤣 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:12 PM |
| 0 | Loyalty is useless alone.I’ve known women for at least 40 years. I’ve heard women say, “my man can get anybody he wants. Sure he cheats but that’s just him. It’s not the only time I caught him.” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 04:11 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.I’ll use a basic example. I would much rather go into the grocery cereal aisle with a whole aisle of cereal than an aisle with bare shelves. I might not like Cap’n Crunch or All-Bran but it’s on the shelf and I have the choice of putting it in my cart. I have the option to not choose to. Most men walk down the proverbial cereal aisle and there are zero options, nothing on the shelf. A woman will not even try the All-Bran where a dude will put into the cart. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 03:30 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.My internal discussion is not like that at all. If I see a woman that’s heavier that I would normally date, I may say something to myself like this: “She’s larger that I would normally be interested in but I like what she’s wearing and how she’s wearing it. I can see us together.” With women: “He’s short, absolutely not.” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 03:26 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.That’s a pretty wide description of an average dude. Definitely, the top-tier guys are in your description of average but also the dudes with c-cups and a couple of stomachs are also in your description as well. Interesting. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 03:23 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.That dude is absolutely an option. An option that she refuses to recognize doesn’t make it any less of an option. She has just opted to not find anything attractive about a man who is an option. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 03:04 PM |
| 3 | Loyalty is useless alone.Not sure about that. Women love disloyal men. If that dude cheats, she will complain about it, but secretly she’s cool with it. That means her man is desired by other women and those women are jealous of her for being with him. The amount of crap she will put up with him is directly proportional to how much his perceived hotness is. There is nothing that will dry up a lady that a man she likes that other women do not find attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 02:34 PM |
| – | Women are larping loneliness.I still believe that women do not know what the average guys look like. I cringe when a woman describes a man as average because 9 times out of 10 he’s upper tier. Any woman I have known, worked with, friends with etc… were never involuntarily single. It was always their choice. There was always some guy in the background somewhere that she wasn’t interested in but he was definitely interested in her. Women competing for the top 10 is always going to be super competitive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 01:07 PM |
| 28 | Being single is different for men and women.Nothing really here to debate. Women make all of the rules for dating. A dude can go a decade before a woman will talk or go on one date with him just to have her ghost him for some other dude that she perceives as a better option. Women have tons of options while most guys really have ZERO options. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/26 10:24 AM |
| 5 | Red Pill men trust their self-motivated inccorrect observations of women more than women's own explanations.She’s not the only one. She has three close friends that are exactly the same way. That’s why I’m her dirty little cave troll and not her public boyfriend. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/06/26 03:48 PM |
| 13 | Red Pill men trust their self-motivated inccorrect observations of women more than women's own explanations.My FB has confirmed a lot of my red pilled opinions. She just told me last night that I can work out all I want. In the end it won’t matter to women because I’m not 6’ tall. “If you aren’t 6’ tall it gets me wondering what else is wrong with you?” Exact quote. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/06/26 01:27 PM |
| 1 | Men dating younger women may be the only option left.Height and face are the only things that matter to older women. Take it from a dude in his fifties. You can put in all of the work you want in your twenties and thirties, you can still come out as a tired, undesirable old man that zero women will acknowledge. Women do not reward hard work, they reward height and face. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/06/26 04:01 PM |
| 2 | What do abusive men bring to the table?This is pretty false. You can absolutely find abusive men in higher socioeconomic ladders. Case in point, my FB still thirsts for the abusive man that left her. He does very well for himself and the 3 failed marriages he had was a “hidden” red flag that she never saw that he disclosed week 1. They were together three years. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/06/26 10:01 AM |
| 1 | No one told men marriage was gonna be a nonstop fuck fest.As someone who has been in a sexless boring marriage, LoB is kind of right. On the flip side of that, the thought of having sex with my ex-wife during our marriage inspired dried heaves. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/26 12:24 PM |

| 1 | Is dating a numbers game for men?The probability of a dude getting into a relationship is pretty low. My FB is actively searching for a dude. She leaves every date analyzing every syllable said and action taken. With that type of scrutiny it really is a numbers game for dudes to try and try. Basically a binomial distribution skewed heavily to the right. However, after every one of these dates, she comes to my house to get her rocks off. So, I guess the universe is in balance | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/05/26 09:58 AM |

| 1 | Hyperactive men are magnets to womenI’m just a dude who starts something, I finish it. It’s definitely not the sexiest mindset but that’s how I work. Shit gets done and I move onto the next thing. I usually don’t have two projects going on at the same time. I’m not doing yard work and painting a room in my house, for example. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/05/26 03:43 PM |

| 1 | Hyperactive men are magnets to womenI think women view that as the guy is doing stuff. They may have 10 projects going on that they might never finish but they are doing stuff. Where a dude plans something, executes the plan, finishes the project, is pretty boring to women. They can’t brag to other women because there is just the one thing and there is a completion process. Versus, “my man is doing this, and this, and this, and this, etc…” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/05/26 01:59 PM |
| 9 | If many women say you are a total catch but won’t date you, the harsh truth is that they are lying to you.That’s true. No woman is going to let go the real total catch.

| 0 | Women Deceive Themselves About Bad Men, Then Blame All Men.There is some truth to this. Some. Woman screws a bad boy, narcissistic, abuser. He cheats on her and gives her a couple STDs.

| 2 | Men are not responsible for babies, women makeI agree with what you are saying. Absolutely. OK, reduce my taxes by one third and increase the families with children by one third. A family with children are definitely going to use those services way more than I am. I just think in my neighborhood it’s crazy that I’m paying the same amount of school tax as a family of four. So, I get penalized for not having children from a federal tax level and on a state and local level I’m paying for everyone else’s children. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/04/26 03:40 PM |

| 1 | The Top 10% Illusion: Why Dating Apps Still Suck for Attractive Men (as a 10% user)Typical insult to boost your deflated ego. You thought making a dating profile that would attract women would satiate the void left by not receiving any attention from women.

| 1 | The impetus for self-improvement does not matterSelf-improvement doesn’t matter at all for men. Men have to do self improvement for self improvement’s sake.

So, the belief that dating becomes easier as you age is a misconception.

There were legitimate criticisms like the dude that only had half his face in most of the pics and the classic every photo is a group photo. To me, these women were weren’t exactly beautiful. This is what piqued my interest in the video. They are probably 5 or 6, max. These chicks were swip… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/12/25 12:49 AM |
| 1 | "Both women and men believe that their gender disadvantages them. When so many men feel underappreciated and so many women feel mistreated, it creates a vicious cycle of resentment." → ResearchShe could absolutely choose better when choosing to date. Swiping left on a dude because 5/6 photos are perfect but one is blurry so she swipes left is ridiculous and has no bearing on dating a man. Choose a photographer if you want to have a photo shoot. Provide some latitude if you are looking for a partner. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/12/25 05:05 AM |

| 1 | The reason online dating sucks is because men like every women profileWomen are selective but on the absolute wrong things. This is why they get pumped and dumped and back on OLD every few months. for example, “I liked 5/6 of your photos but photo 4 should’ve been your first so I swiped left.” Another example, “Your first picture was the best, showed off who you are, but I swiped left because your bio didn’t convey the essence of who you are in 25 characters.” Some of the comments I’ve read on Reddit have no weight in a dating scenario. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/12/25 04:59 AM |
| 1 | The reason online dating sucks is because men like every women profileIf men are swiping right on every woman it’s out of frustration from not getting any matches/dates.

The hot/cray chick that love bombs, drops the I love you after 24 hours, and wants to move in with you is too much.

It isn’t happening every day and the guys that like you on OLD a very small, negligible percentage of them are lecherous. This whole thing about women getting groped all of the time by men and transferred onto men like me who have been constantly respectable all of my life is totally unfair.

| -1 | No one is happy and it is everyone's faultI really do not see how women could be the most unhappy.Everyday is a wonderful assortment of 100s and 1000s of suitors vying for her attention If they can’t get Chad to leave his wife and 3 kids for her, then she is probably sexually lackluster.

| 4 | The reason online dating sucks is because men like every women profileMen are expected to show this through photographs. This is an unreal expectation. Guys are not snapping photos every day.

Women make 100% of the rules for dating, relationships, marriage, and children. So, she sours on all men except Chad. So, she will take her frustration out on the lower 80% because that’s easy.

| 12 | It doesn't make sense to ask women to lower their standardsYeah, agreed. Consistency is a problem.

Women are absolutely choosing these men that were obviously looking for a mommy. It just doesn’t ring true to me that we’re no warning signs that a dude is looking to be taken care of and not reciprocate that level of sympathy and care. Why do women use every brain cell to eliminate the lower 85% of men and yet not use that same level of scrutiny with the upper 15% of men? It’s baffling. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/11/25 05:15 AM |

| 1 | Q4M: why do you no longer court women properly?It’s difficult at my age to try to court women that do not go out and mingle with society. At my age, seeing a 50 year old woman in IRL is pretty rare. Second, OLD has taken that courting process away. Why would a woman entertain a conversation with me when she can disregard me, go home, order her perfect dude on OLD, and be dating him the next day? Women for some reason refuse to answer this question. Absolutely refuse. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/11/25 09:56 PM |
| 2 | What's the point of sleeping with someone you aren't attracted to?Men do desire companionship and a relationship. That’s the piece that’s missing from OP’s post. Since 80% of men are invisible to women, they marry the first one that gives attention even if she isn’t quite the one he wants. In general, men date down while women date up. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/11/25 09:46 PM |
| 1 | Women complain in hopes that men will take the baitSolution to most of your complaints, pick better! If your husband doesn’t do any chores or insignificant chores then you should’ve known that.

OLD doesn’t provide any access to anybody else when you match with no one. Women only give the top-tier men multiple chances. The average guy doesn’t get any chance. Do you understand what zero means? Zero doesn’t mean 1-2 matches per week. Zero means no messages, no matches, and certainly no dates. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/11/25 05:42 PM |
| 2 | Do you believe asymmetry in online dating is a big contributor to the 'Male loneliness crisis'?You know you are ugly when a woman works into a conversation that she has a boyfriend within the second or third sentence.

| 1 | Do you believe asymmetry in online dating is a big contributor to the 'Male loneliness crisis'?You are missing the most important point. Society treats men differently. Even if you mitigate your numbered items, women in particular don’t and will not care because you are below average. You are giving advice that women believe is the problem.

| 5 | People do give men a bunch of chances before giving up on them.The fact that a dude has a girlfriend makes him top-tier. The average guy goes years with being single. These top-tier dudes are the only ones getting multiple chances because they got the first chance which the average dude never gets and if he does he better be absolutely perfect. That dude will get ghosted for a myriad of reasons. Average dudes have to walk on eggshells.

The problem started in the 80’s with BS rom-coms that have the guy incessantly chasing the woman and getting her through persistence. Since this never fails in movies, it was internalized that this must work IRL. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t. All this chasing will bring disappointment.

Those dudes would’ve done well anyway IRL, they are just padding their stats. The average dude won’t even see a match in two years. If you are a young man, approach in public.

Thoughts?The dudes playing video games and withdrawing is a case where the exception is overshadowing the rule. When I go out, a lot of times it’s a ton of dudes. Pickleball, all dudes. Biking, dudes. Local parks, dudes. Bar/restaurants, married couples, and dudes! Dudes are fucking everywhere. Where are the single women? Nowhere to be found. I guess they are home playing video games and watching the Hallmark channel. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/11/25 10:08 AM |
| 1 | I’m convinced that the only reason men want women to be more involved with fixing the “male loneliness epidemic” is because they genuinely do not care about one another’s problems. Thoughts?Guys have always dismissed other guys because those other guys are seen as competition. I don’t like it but that’s what happens. There is a lot of what’s best for me vs. what’s best for the group. There is a lot of short-sightedness. I have ditched dudes like this because of this. Again, I’m not the only one that has done this. This is why dudes have smaller social circles than women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/11/25 10:02 AM |
| 11 | I’m convinced that the only reason men want women to be more involved with fixing the “male loneliness epidemic” is because they genuinely do not care about one another’s problems. Thoughts?I don’t expect any woman to be the solution for anything. I don’t like the fact on Reddit: women deny it, mischaracterize it, and don’t understand or care about it. Now, I have been bombarded with gender issues; such as, equal pay and body rights all of my life. It seems to me women should could provide an inkling of understanding for this. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/11/25 09:59 AM |
| 0 | Male Loneliness Epidemic is a societal problem.So, you are clueless about it as well. You are making this assumption that if a dude is lonely then he must be complaining from his couch, doesn’t have a circle of friends, and that is certainly not the case.

A straight lonely dude doesn’t want more dudes in his life. Guys do not put other guys in situations to find a lonely dude a woman to date.

| 4 | What options do high income women have?Whomever they want. Women make all of the rules for dating. If they decide to date a low income earner dude, the consequence is that they are paying for everything. A high income earner dude, might have his attention elsewhere, like making more money or dedicating 90% of his life to their job.

If they are older, they did not meet on OLD, they met before OLD. If they are younger, say 20’s, in a relationship, that dude is not average. The average dude 20-40 is not meeting any women organically, it just doesn’t happen like that.

They are not just looking for providers, like our fathers told us. So, the dating dynamic has changed. It’s foolish to not acknowledge that. Apps have made it worse because the world is smaller.

| 0 | Women are allowed to accept they're not attractive.I disagree with there is no expiration date for finding a relationship statement. I think that may be true for women. For men, I think that’s on a case-by-case basis. I’ve seemed to have aged out in dating at 53. Before you think I’m just looking for 20 year olds, I’m only looking for women between 47 and 57. There is no interest in me whatsoever.

A man isn’t getting judged by the woman he decided to approach. He’s getting judged by all of the women in that group. That’s a lot of standards a man has to overcome. So success is rare. Additionally, years ago women were complaining about cold approaching and how they can’t stand it. So, dudes listened. It wasn’t a heavy lift to stop approaching because it never worked anyway. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/10/25 12:33 PM |

| 1 | Do your feelings towards women come from jealousy or genuine disgust?The last date I had was 3 years ago. I thought it ended well. The next day, I went to try to possibly set up a second date but was shot down. I got the, “you are a great, but it’s not you it’s me” line. I told her, “cool. Thanks for letting me know. If you want to talk again send me a text. Good luck.” That was the end of it. Haven’t had a date since then. So, now you’ve now met someone who took rejection well. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/10/25 12:15 PM |

| 1 | A woman ‘struggling to find a good man’ should not be a common issue.I don’t have a problem looking for an attractive man, if they say it. The “woe is me” memes that fly around facebook and instagram only tell half the story because they are not saying the quiet part out loud. Women, just say, I’m looking for an attractive man AND who is a good man. Don’t imply it, state it outright! Then, you probably wouldn’t get 10000 dudes in your inbox because, I’m looking at your profile thinking I’m one or the other or neither. The average guy would probably move on. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/10/25 12:04 PM |

Due to this type of behavior, guys can’t get any feedback from women on why we may not be a good fit. I’m fine with women telling me the truth whatever it is.

What really ticks me off, from a dating perspective, is that I have been alone for sometime. The goalposts have changed dramatically.

Human beings are complicated. Having standards that are so rigid is counterintuitive to the human experience. For me, standards are fluidic, they are nice to have. For example, I’m an educated man. I have a double Masters in STEM. I would like an educated woman but if she didn’t graduate high school or didn’t go to college, this isn’t a deal breaker.

It’s absolutely ridiculous. Women still put themselves in this situation. The only explanation that I can think of is that women are motivated by attention whether it’s bad or good.

I lived through the 80’s and 90’s - that’s when cold-approaching women was the only way you were meeting women. I’ve definitely had my share of rejection, dusted myself off, and kept cold-approaching. This is how I know most of the time you will be a simp if you are showing empathy and are considered beta.

| 5 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.From an OLD perspective, the fact that women chase 20% of the men and leave the other 80%, is a problem. It’s a problem that OLD sites love. It inspires desperation, loneliness, and depression. These emotions may drive a dude to spend money. OLD loves that. From an IRL perspective, women are still chasing that perfect dude. It seems that women are less likely to compromise today.

Women desire some tall, fat, small D, pregnant dude that makes the woman look small. However; in order to for a dude to get a god damn boner, blood has to pump to the D! The dude that has milk-filled titties and a stomach filled with 100 lbs of fat can’t do that so easily. That blood has to squeeze through all that biscuit grease, cheddar cheese, and wing sauce to get to the D. It’s like trying to get water to flow through a kinked hose. People are just fuck… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/08/24 08:47 AM |
| – | CMV: A man isn't obligated to step in and save a woman from being mugged or assaulted.The hero is never rewarded. You will go from hero to zero in thirty seconds.Funny, women constantly ask where chivalry has gone🤔. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/08/24 05:57 PM |
| – | The dating market does not suck for womenI was just pointing out the statistics, that’s all. Now, what I don’t understand is, how is dating a shorter man settling and unsuitable? That’s the part I don’t understand. Most tall dudes couldn’t hold a candle to the personal growth and achievements I’ve made in my life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/08/24 02:18 PM |
| – | The dating market does not suck for womenJust pointing out the obvious; you were probably out there for years because you probably filtered out 86% of the men based on height. Most tall dudes have multiple options. They can be absolutely shitty people and get away with it and still fulfill their needs. Most average dudes cannot. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/08/24 11:51 AM |
| 4 | There's a huge difference between what younger women want and what older women want which I believe causes a lot of confusion between what works best for dating“If you have a good job, stable income, treat everyone with respect, an education, and a home then you will be able to marry a good woman.” This is what I was told as a young man. First off it’s a fucking lie. Second, younger women may care about these things but older women, no. Older women don’t give a fuck about what you have done with your life and what you have. It’s all about height and face. You can live behind a dumpster and smell like piss and shit as long as you are good looking and 6’… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/24 07:09 PM |
| 1 | Cold approaching women is usually taken as a compliment unless the guy is fuck ugly or disrespectfulYou live in a different universe than I do. I want to be returned to the universe I belong to. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/24 02:17 PM |
| 3 | An average guy who is a good conversationalist has a greater chance of women treating him as "one of the girls" rather than it being an influence on their attraction toward him.Most of the time, you not only get friendzoned by the woman but also by the woman’s immediate social circle. If her friends were attracted to you, she will outline your shortcomings to her friends, and that will get you completely friendzoned by the circle. Entertainment has spread the myth that you can move from one woman to another in a circle. Shows like Friends and How I met your mother are not realistic in the slightest. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/08/24 08:34 AM |
| 1 | What Are Your Standards and WhyNo chicks with horses! How can I compete with a horse! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/08/24 12:10 AM |
| 4 | The "Nice Guy" trope is, in most cases, a projection on the woman's partTruth! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/24 12:25 PM |
| 5 | Why don't women with low-esteem ever go for unattractive men?I’ve never abused a woman. Period. It would be nice though to have an attractive woman give me a chance though. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/07/24 10:01 PM |
| 3 | Why do women not seem to have empathy towards sexual needs of men?On another note, I’ve had very satisfying and rewarding relationships with the socks in my sock drawer🤪 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/07/24 03:48 PM |
| – | "I see unattractive men date beautiful women all the time" has to be one of the most self-unaware statementsI rank this quote with, “Every pot has a lid.” Both are condescending AF! To a certain extent attractiveness is subjective-ish. Guaranteed that the woman is probably a 3 or 4. Woman are really generous when rating another woman she’s not in competition with. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/07/24 11:57 AM |
| 6 | Flirting is a learned skill by men.Agreed! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/07/24 02:36 PM |
| 8 | Flirting is a learned skill by men.My parents were the epitome of what not to do in a marriage. I have zero skills in flirting. I fell into the same trap my parents did during their marriage. The only blessing was divorce. Life sucks! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/07/24 02:35 PM |

| 2 | This is worth a watch, maybe the outlook on dating for men is perhaps too pessimisticI meet women all of the time too. They smile and talk to me when I talk to them and it all ends when I pay the bill with a big fat tip. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/07/24 02:59 AM |

| 1 | This is worth a watch, maybe the outlook on dating for men is perhaps too pessimisticMost women my age do not date at all. If you don’t hook up, married, children, and gave Hallmark happiness by 30, it’s over | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/07/24 02:45 AM |
| 2 | Acting slightly immoral with women is the best way to actually get quality women😒😒😒 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/07/24 12:47 AM |
| -3 | Women who say Good Men are rare enough to justify voluntary celibacy are greatly exaggerating how rare Good Men are.Women rarely say exactly what they mean. Here is the translation, “a good man that is tall, attractive, wealthy, cultured, and is totally dedicated to me 100% is rare.”😜 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/07/24 12:42 AM |
| 1 | Sexless men should honestly take their chances and approach as many women as possibleI approach but no go. I’ve approached more than 100 women in six years. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/06/24 11:40 PM |

| 6 | Getting hobbies is useless advice for dating.Hobbies work for dating if you are already good at the hobby and you are attractive. I may like dancing and love to dance but if I can’t dance and I’m not attractive I will be going home by myself every time. EVERY TIME! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/06/24 06:07 PM |
| 8 | So if Women in the US go after the top percent of guys while they are young, do average guys need to wait for them to settle for them when they get older?They go after the top 20% even in their 40s and 50s! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 11:33 PM |
| 0 | Women are leaving dating appsYou are right. It’s my opinion. Businesses have ebbs and flows. Right now, it’s Spring and people have other things to do. When Winter hits and people really don’t want to go outside or leave their homes, they will turn to them again to meet people. They will do this because the option exists. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 06:57 PM |
| 3 | Women are leaving dating appsThe easy answer is that women don’t have to be. Women can be approached IRL or they have to be on the apps too long. Men have a different experience men rarely get the go-ahead to approach women IRL and can be on the apps for years without any tangible dates. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 05:02 PM |
| 2 | Women are leaving dating appsWhat exactly am I incorrect/wrong about? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:14 PM |
| 18 | Women are leaving dating appsThey will go back to the apps. The apps are here to stay. Even though women say they hate the hundreds of matches they get, they love the attention. If they go off of the apps, they won’t get that much attention because Chads aren’t going to get off of the apps either. OLD is a wonderland for Chad, so he’s not coming off of the apps. So, they will go back for the attention and the abuse from Chad. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 01:45 PM |
| 2 | IS THIS S.A.?😒 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/24 11:00 PM |
| – | Why is there this obsession in the manosphere with wanting to ‘replace women’?Some dudes aren’t mad and want revenge. They just want some companionship. I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. For most dudes the options are buying an escort or having relationships with a pair of socks. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/24 01:11 AM |
| – | Why is there this obsession in the manosphere with wanting to ‘replace women’?Who are these men that are below average in relationships? Not one person on Reddit has provided proof of this mythical person. Not.One.Time! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/24 01:07 AM |
| 2 | Dating (not "modern dating", dating in general) has been a failure, and is leading to the downfall of societyLook I understand the frustration and I’m lonely AF. I would not want that kind of arrangement with a woman. A relationship that may or may not be really consensual for one’s side or the other would end in failure. This why we are at this point now. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/24 12:56 AM |
| 0 | why don't ab*s*rs give people "the ick"?I agree with what you are saying to an extent. The guy who dates once every year maybe an abuser to some extent but doesn’t get the opportunity to keep abusing because his sick ass is just average. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/24 02:30 PM |
| 4 | why don't ab*s*rs give people "the ick"?Diddy has mad money. The average schmo isn’t pulling like Diddy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/24 12:54 PM |
| 3 | why don't ab*s*rs give people "the ick"?It’s usually a Chad who has honed his skills to be a better abuser. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/24 12:10 PM |
| 1 | Men should stop asking women for adviceAre you saying that when a man asks a woman advice, you are friend-zoned, just like a female friend? So, basically stop doing that shit unless you like the FZ. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/05/24 12:09 AM |
