There are boatloads of people who never discuss body count. I’d been in one discussion about it in the last 15-20 years before this sub and zero among my dude friends. There are plenty of men, HV or otherwise who don’t care about it. There are also plenty of men that aren’t trad, and this becomes more pronounced when they become HV, not less.

Agreement on how things have changed. I was responding to the "when were cold approaches appreciated?" Prior to the internet, talking to girls/women at fast food places, campuses etc wasn't abnormal. People had more social skills then out of necessity. I am confused how many dudes on this board think they'd do better dating if they were dropped into 1997. If you're awkward now, you'd be realllly awkward by the standards of that time. The vast majority of folks could dish out or take polite rejec…

In the late 90s it was par for the course for teenagers/college aged folks to go to the mall and/or "cruise" and get phone numbers or set up "plans for later". In the hoodish areas even stopping your car to holler was often received positively, had cousins who were a lot more skilled at that than I was.

Eye contact with her in heels is a wonderful thing

More guys are attracted to tall women than not, but true some aren’t. I’m very attracted to them. Some guys are rightfully intimidated though. The way I’ve heard many girls around say 5’9 talk about guys their same height is not pretty. Heard it so often that I instinctually have mad respect for a 5’7 dude with a 6-foot woman.

I'd say they are fetish-model adjacent yeah. I have some insight into the actual fetish-model community. Most of them are in non-monogamous LTRs where the primary guy could be any-and-I-mean-any kind of dude. None of the norms spoken in this space apply to it. Very possible the folks I mentioned have been influenced by or have friends in that community.

This makes more sense to me than most PPD posts from what I observe IRL. I feel like dudes are less motivated, and the social media algorithms cater to your every visual need, along with free porn. I’m older but if no attractive women were into me I’d happily sit out. I expect more guys to abstain not due to boiling resentment, but the combination of variety of cheap substitutes and below-average economy.

Seen it, part of it is a virtue signal by link in bio folks... But the women I've noticed saying this are like 6'3. At this height I've noticed even hot women giving up on height requirements because they'd be abandoning almost all dudes. I also think people with quirky type preferences are becoming more vocal, a positive development.

What do you recommend as the statistical tipping point? “___% chance this evening will include making out with an attractive woman if you go to this venue if I go here solo.” What percentage would justify a solo trip to that spot?

There are subtle upsides to not being expected to be “on” 24/7. On the first part of your response, you’re talking about women being expected to put effort into looking cute? I can see how that is real societal pressure, although if you ask any individual straight dude about this, he’d say he doesn’t care. OTOH, I’ve traveled to countries where I didn’t find many of the women attractive. Didn’t notice how much I purely missed the visual aspect until getting to the gate to come back to the US.

I believe women do a lot of work in the lab on appearance. I don’t believe many women are going to the equivalent of charm school, but I’ve always had maaaad respect for those who appear to have worked on that skill. The only question is if the work the avg woman does in honing her appearance and pics equals the effort men put into honing their charm. The bitterness in guys will also come from the fact that in the process, it’s damn near inevitable they will unintentionally creep somebody out, t…

This might be true at 23 or perhaps even 30 but not after that. Previous LTR experience is social proof after that point. Also a tale of woe can be an aphrodisiac to women if not told too woefully.

Statusmaxxing if that’s a word makes more sense than looksmaxxing. I’ve only been there a handful of times, but feeling attraction based primarily on status and not on looks OR game (personality/aura) is so freaking hollow.

I’m thinking of rapport-building when speaking of game. You might be as well. Back then, the common knowledge was don’t look like shit. After that your approach method as well as ability to recognize body language / signs of attraction was key. I have some women even now say if they were a guy looking to get some, they’d focus on recognizing signs that a woman is having some kind of low-self-esteem moment. I knew some dudes who were just non-ugly looks wise AFAIK but who “excelled” in this.

As an old guy and here to learn, game CLEARLY beat looks 20-25 years ago. Hands down. Slam the door. I haven’t checked for women under 35 in some time, so in my demo game still beats looks by a large margin. I know this is a unique corner of the internet, but with so many dudes here obsessed with looks I figure there must be some fire behind the smoke.

Yeah, huuuuge difference between confidence and peacocking. To be fair, people on these sites or equivalent have been recommending dudes have confidence since like the 80s. I had no idea what they meant by this until I was about 36, even after increasing it between 22-36. Now I can’t unsee it, and how much it’s a factor in dating and I don’t know how I would’ve explained this to my 23yo self either.

Neither men or women are unified by this, but I think women want traditionalism a little more than men on the whole. Some vocal men in this sub and in the ‘sphere think their dating luck would be better if women didn’t have as many choices, if they were encouraged/coerced into only dating people they see as husband material.

Been there. Also had an ex who was comfortable just leaving food out everywhere and in the bed. Every 1-2 months she would do a full-on spic-and-span house cleaning but she was perfectly fine leaving the place gross for weeks.

A question a child might ask, but not a childish question. When one person does not clean to the other person’s standards, that is an extreme challenge for people who live together, especially people who are fucking and have increased intimacy expectations. I have been on both sides of this.

That too. Although I don't know if I'm so much better in text... In old-school times I had the impression 80% of guys would rather not have had to do the approaching, hence all the "liquid courage". Getting rejected quietly from your own bathroom beats getting direct instant feedback that you have no game, then meekly walking away lol.

I am roughly the same age, and what Dagenius describes is accurate. I adapted but it didn't seem "fair" to me.

But yeah where I live, dudes putting themselves out there has felt non-existent for about the last 10 years. I thought it was weird but when my marriage ended 6 years ago, I quickly saw why.

Haha it’s complicated. I’ve definitely used it to my advantage. On hookups being easier, it’s that those who are down make it more known. I had black friends who really were into girl-next-door WW or AW and they had it rough. EDIT: meaning just going up to random WW/AW did not work well for them. But the origin is racist for sure, black men as insatiable beasts threatening to soil the pure southern belle and so forth.

Yeah this. Then a lot of middle-class black environments are socially conservative / churchy on the surface, meaning everyone is supposed to be aiming for monogamy. In these environments whether black or non-black the thirst imbalance organically decreases.

Nah more like the economic impact. Dudes tend to look for marriage/LTR when they have economic security at which point they become a “good man”. Also, the weird side-effect of American racism in particular that is the eroticization of black men. So if a black man manages to become a “good man” where there is a lack of “good men”, meaning their RMV can become so high the energy can be converted into SMV. Yeah you mayyyy get passed over for dorkishness early on but later the floodgates will open. …

You see it in fits and starts, like whenever your area decided to fully open from Covid, or spring in the Northeast, basically when people haven’t been out for a while. That season ends quickly though. Even then the thirst imbalance lessens but doesn’t flip. Within the black community I’d say the thirst is about equal but that is basically due to systemic racism at a high level.

Yeah it’s the confidence. I was broke as hell at 30, moved into a room in a friend’s house, just planning to live humbly and save $$ and had to force myself to go volcel in order to stash cash. I was broke but as emotionally secure as I’d ever been, that’s the only way to explain it.

I've noticed this, it makes me feel like human nature is defective. Not the part about preferences, but where somebody gets 5000 likes and 100 marriage proposals for a single post yet focuses on the one negative comment. It's not just muscle girls but a lot of other types of women as well, maybe men too but I ain't checking for them. Shit, after 3-4 extremely hot women choose for NSA sex, I could be deemed ugly for life and be OK with it.

You underestimate these algorithms. In my case, my type(s) were not entirely mainstream but now my FYP feeds me a steady supply of these types—on the suggestion pages. My impression now is that there isn’t a mainstream but I’m likely wrong. If they had this when I was 20 I would have never gotten out of bed.

Women being honest about their preferences would be so great for the world. At our age it’s more common. In my 40s I have been rejected for being under 250 lbs and looking too much like a model (her words) along with more mundane reasons to be clear.
/r/PurplePillDebate10/02/23 10:11 PM

It is weird when you think about it. On a macro/societal level, women risk more from sex, and their sexuality is a kind of currency where it isn’t for men. Zooming in on personal experiences, it has rarely felt that way, especially the taking part… and that’s the initial round. In relationships, it’s felt pretty equal.

IRL the Chads I knew did not shag all women, although more than the avg guy. They typically raised their standards. The guys who shagged the most were those who had the skill of talking their way into the panties, combined with a chip on their shoulder. They were non-ugly but looks weren’t the factor.

Yeah and this mechanism shuts down because it’s time to settle down or there’s just been a breakup. That’s how you wonder why she chose THAT guy in some cases. It’s like some women don’t develop the “selecting for” muscle, only the “selecting against”. So when they deactivate the against system anything could happen.

I don't agree with all your premises but I love that the idea of actions being innocuous at the individual level can have repercussions when multiplied by 100x, 1000x. It's basically how racism, sexism and other negative -isms function. Of your five bullet points, the only one I see worth taking action on is having children.

For most guys I know they had a peak at 21-23 (late college) followed by a shocking lull then a slower more lasting rise roughly 28-42. You can argue the potential peak is higher at 21 if you’re like a D1 football player or something. High RMV/SMV guys at 28+ aren’t checking for 18-21 year old women though. The quantity vs quality thing is already kicking in, and that life experience gap is substantial.

How common is 2 really? I can see it if you replace "in the context of a relationship" to "if there seems to be relationship potential". With that phrase change, 2 is more common but I'd say even as the language stands. 2 to 1 is more difficult, although 1 to 2 would require something like a religious conversion. Oh and I'd rather be 1 all else being equal, although ONS is not my sweet spot, more like FWB or early stage relationship.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/01/23 01:10 AM

Back then were not confusing Howard Stern with anything right wing as the Religious Right was protesting him on the regular. Tom Leykis led off his show with “I’m not a right wing wacko” You had to go down the rabbit hole a bit to find the can’t get none -> blame it on feminism -> blame it on black guys. The potential for radicalization was always there. To get to this trad stuff, that was only on hardcore white nationalist sites, or other toxic religious places.

Honestly at 35+ anybody I can think of like this that I’ve met personally has something just “a little off” about them. At 25 or so, we… I mean “they” were all over the place. From what little I gather now they still are, regardless of whether they made money early.

Good point in the last paragraph. Also re-read the OP; getting checked and backing down might come off worse than losing the fight. I also believe some of the women here. I can see where many suburban, middle-class and up women over 25 see physical fighting as such low end behavior. Their disdain for the escalator may very well eclipse any other feelings for any combatants by a large amount. But for high-looks, low-status women in particular yeah they’re gonna like some scrappers.

OK maybe if you lose in spectacular fashion, but not if you just come out worse. I’m going on what I’ve seen personally though. This has also applied to requirements to get respect from dudes. You don’t have to win, but just give account. Granted most of my experience in this is age 20 or earlier. Ironically, I think it’s tougher on guys in non-physical circumstances.

I honestly don’t know if it’s the best advice in this sub but it has a lot of truth. IME I’ve avoided deadbedrooms even though I’ve had a ton of other problems in relationships. I basically need to feel that level of lust before LTR instincts come into my head. There are downfalls to that as well.

I saw their thread on “always the emotional confidante”… that has to smart. I’ve likely been guilty of that before, I have a small need for a sister type of friend in my life as I have no irl sisters.

This whole sub is based on a fear of female sexuality and that attitude is present in much of the world outside of it. Toxic monogamic expectations.

Getting a compliment from any woman is positive, it’s just a matter of degrees… except for the sloppy drunk, particularly she who is taking turns rubbing against every Tom Dick and Harry. Yes in that case I’m standing still hoping and waiting for somebody like you to whisk her off and probably hold her hair back later.

I’m nowhere near an advocate of being an asshole to get women, but this kind of advice is from the pit of hell. Whoever is saying this has zero awareness of what it’s like to be a straight dude struggling to get dates. And also it works ironically, but only in an environment where you’re “the type” for a lot of women or where you have demonstrated value already. When women give this advice they’re already thinking of guys they have noticed—not they have decided to pursue them, but the guys have …

For me, it wouldn’t be about income but more about cultural commonalities. Even with uneducated high-earners the cultural disconnect is still there.

For me the women I thought were hottest at 16-23 who are still trying despite a few extra lbs and grey hairs are theee finest. I reconnected of them and she’s been my “main chick” or more for a few years and it is outstanding. I can’t say that if they completely let themselves go that would be hot but simply expected physical aging + increased emotional security 💣

Her thinking a prostitute is beneath her is toxic and from the pit of hell, as are all slut-shaming philosophies. But also there are men and women who really enjoy the dandyish aspect of these relationships, including men who have a lot of money, for whom sex isn’t all that important.

This. In my late 20s/early 30s I was around urban tribes which contained many people in spouse-finder mode.

I'm closer to blue than red, probably.

I stumbled into that, but my marriage was not good to begin with.

This guy has a point.

I don’t know of any decent looking guys in my demographic who are just sitting around being asexual. Some date a lot but are slow to have sex, and some are likely in sexless marriages but just happy to mow the lawn and go to work, nope.

I am surprised this is still a thing in 2022. I'd expect young dudes could look up "how to induce the orgasm" type of info that would be fairly accurate by now. It is true that getting sex itself is a whole entire skill for guys, but I assumed you could access really good sex education online now.

An alternate the “Man with a high N is a champion” thing is that women considered highly attractive especially in their 20s generally are not impressed easily. They don’t compliment guys often at all, especially ones they don’t know very well. One could say sex is the ultimate act of a woman physically approving of a man. This is why high N guy is usually thought of as having done SOMETHING right in order to be approved of by so many women.

The messaging is not intended for marriage, but for many women that messaging is just driven so hard that sex makes them dirty that it doesn’t disappear on their wedding night, even when they’d like it to. You can search something like “purity culture effects on women”, bound to see it.

I’m not purity-focused whatsoever but this info comes from first, second and third-hand stories from friends and therapists. It’s not usually guys who have this issue but women. Apparently some churches tell women they’re like chewed-up pieces of gum for not being virginal and that type of imagery does not go away easily.

That “sex is dirty” part is real though. And it does NOT go away with marriage much of the time. If someone has their identity wrapped up in being pure and virginal, often it takes therapy to undo that even after marriage.
