| 3 | Modern Men Are Being Punished for a Past They Didn’t CreateI agree. However, treating modern men as morally suspect is largely a reflection of the number of men who are morally suspect, in the spectrum of our own moral standards. If someone voted for Farage / Rupert Lowe, Marine La Penn, Trump, I’d consider them morally suspect. If their socials lean towards the Joe Rogan end of the spectrum, same. If their charisma hinges on negging and putting others down, same. If they only have a friendship group comprised of people who can benefit them, same. And s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/06/26 10:53 AM |
| 1 | What should a man have before even trying a dating or relationship?There’s no one answer, but here are mine: Be clean, look after yourself. Shower at least once a day. Brush your teeth at least twice a day. Keep your hair (head and body) trimmed and tidy. Wash your clothes after you wear them and don’t wear dirty things. Be healthy. Eat good food. Do exercise. Treat ailments. If you are healthy and clean, you look good and smell good. That’s all that really matters as a first stage. If you need to ask this question and you’re not in therapy, it’s worth starting… | /r/ExRedPill | 28/05/26 02:51 PM |

| 9 | Everyone wants validation, but the redpill and their ilk take it too far.I’m not the OP, but I generally date for a couple of months before sex is a thing and date for 6 months before I’d consider something to be a relationship. It hasn’t hurt my dating options, or kept me out of relationships where we’re compatible. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/26 04:31 PM |
| 4 | Everyone wants validation, but the redpill and their ilk take it too far.This! It makes me lose interest so quickly, it’s a clear signal they’re awful at ‘mate selection’. It’s a pattern I see in people who get into lots of successive, short-term ‘relationships’ lasting a few months, only for it to fall apart when incompatibility becomes blindly obvious. It screams insecurity and impulsivity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/02/26 04:29 PM |
| 0 | Women claim to be into personality but judge everythingIt’s been 3 months. I’m a NEET as I was made redundant (I cover the latter in my initial reply). As a NEET, I still go out. I have savings, I’m not claiming welfare yet. I’ve actually only just started looking for a new role as I appreciated the time out to regroup. Being made redundant is a stressful situation to be in. I meet people in the real world fairly regularly as I’m still actively sociable. I’m conventionally attractive and old AF at 42, but there’s never a shortage of men in their 20s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/02/26 04:03 PM |
| 2 | Women claim to be into personality but judge everythingI’m currently an unemployed NEET woman, after being made redundant. I’m not dating while I’m in this situation, and I’m incredibly up front about that when guys ask me out. I wouldn’t date anyone whose life is upheaval. Because I have my shit together as a person, I don’t date when my life is in upheaval. 🤷♀️ | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/02/26 02:55 PM |
| 3 | The fact that most women don't want to date bisexual men is a great litmus test to show how much women actually do care about male gender roles. Contrary to popular beliefs.I like bi guys. I’m not into slutty men though. 🥲 The how is way more important to me, I’m not into fuck boys either. 🥲 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/25 03:10 PM |
| 1 | Women gaslight men who date younger due to intrasexual competition.🥲 I’m not adverse to older men, just much less likely to meet them. I don’t do online dating, I meet everyone I date out in the real world. I can’t say I have much experience of younger men being angry about dating ranges either, it’s not a conversation I’ve ever had. It’s not like there’s a shortage of single people in the world, especially in big cities. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/09/25 07:08 AM |
| 1 | Women gaslight men who date younger due to intrasexual competition.I’m not personally convinced. I’m 41 and date guys in their late 20s, 30s and 40s. It’s not unique among single people I know my age, we’re all dating similar age ranges - male and female. The only time any of us raise an eyebrow is when we’re being flirted with by someone in their teens or early 20s, and it’s usually us finding it a bit creepy vs judgement from the group. My Dad is also married to someone 11 years older than him, so basically the same age difference as your example. It’s less c… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/09/25 07:43 AM |
| 2 | It's very rare for a man to be with a woman who isn't primarily interested in getting money, resources or free food from him.It seems somewhat impossible for them to exist without men’s input. Where did the dynamic come from? Who is perpetuating it? In 41 years of life, I’ve experienced two men and two women who are locked into a way of life that is focused on the money and appearances - and they’re verrrrry specific people who have always aspired toward a very particular trip (models and musicians). In my network of literally thousands of people, it’s 4. Yet this sub is insistent it’s the norm. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/25 12:49 PM |

Either way, if you don’t like the people you know or the belief systems you’re abiding by - why do you not look to adjust them and seek to meet more normal, well-adjusted people?

| 8 | Question for Women: What are the barriers that stop women from just taking the initiative and asking guys out on a date that they clearly like or have a crush on?I last asked someone out on a date last week, and we went on Saturday.

| – | Women of reddit. What is your honest reaction to hearing constantly on social media the dating woes of men?Honestly, it makes me less inclined to date anyone. It was definitely a catalyst in stepping away from online dating, I don’t see it as a viable route to meeting someone I’d like because the commentary online (in general) about dating apps just isn’t a vibe. I stick to dating people I meet in the real world now, and I get to know them as people first.

| 1 | How would you react if you found out the man you were dating had a 'slut phase'?It does! I wouldn’t consider 6 months a relationship, just dating. Then 6 months actually in a relationship, making plans and considering moving in together. If you haven’t even made it that far, or worse, rushed into something really prematurely for it to just fall apart within 12 months, and that’s their entire relationship experience - it doesn’t speak highly of the individual. I wouldn’t judge someone in their teens or early-mid 20s in the same way, but once you hit 30 it’s a huge red flag t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/07/25 04:07 PM |
| 1 | How would you react if you found out the man you were dating had a 'slut phase'?I don’t have an idea of a dream guy, so that’s a moot point for me. However, I wouldn’t date someone with no relationship experience in their 30s+. They have no idea how day-to-day life works in a relationship, and it suggests a level of emotional immaturity / behavioural issues / inability to form something meaningful with someone / not being able to deal with adversities. TLDR - it’s a red flag I’m not willing to look past. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/07/25 07:58 AM |
| 3 | How would you react if you found out the man you were dating had a 'slut phase'?Depends on his relationship experience. If he’d only ever been in the dating phase (say longest period of dating the same person was 6 months to a year and he was in his 30s), I wouldn’t be interested. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/07/25 08:28 AM |
| 4 | Out of all the men you meet in your day to day life how often do you meet a guy that you actually like? And why do most men not do it for you?I won’t attempt to speak for all women. For me, it means being articulate, socially aware and sociologically competent. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/07/25 08:23 AM |
| 9 | Out of all the men you meet in your day to day life how often do you meet a guy that you actually like? And why do most men not do it for you?Physical attraction isn’t particularly relevant, it’s more rapport. Probably once or twice a week, more if I’m going out to a gig, bar or a party. Generally speaking once I get to know them a bit, there’s not much interest for me beyond friendship. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/07/25 11:20 PM |

The divorce rate is over 50%, for one, and the marriage rate has also been tailing off. I’d say I probably know an equal number of people in relationships compared to those who are single.

| – | Whats your opinion on what men think the female gaze is?It seems that way from the observer’s perspective. 🤷♀️ Disenfranchised people want some sort of justification for not getting what they want from life, without accepting responsibility for their own part played. There are examples of it throughout all societies. I struggle to see any real evidence in society that any man regardless of appearance / wage can’t find a fulfilling relationship. I only have to look around a restaurant, bar or High Street to see all kinds of people in love, and very f… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/01/25 02:55 PM |

| – | Whats your opinion on what men think the female gaze is?Attention doesn’t equate to dating or sexual success. When I worked as a model, I met a bunch of male models who showed interest and I only ever dated one. After a few dates we kept it as friends as he wasn’t the smartest guy and I just wasn’t sexually or romantically attracted to him because of that. He was great in all other ways but he just didn’t do it for me. 🤷♀️ Unless you’re meeting and going pretty much straight to the bedroom, being attractive only takes you so far. Compatibility and s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/01/25 02:39 PM |
| – | Whats your opinion on what men think the female gaze is?You’re underestimating how attractive a little nervousness is. The body language of nervous attraction is delightful. 🥲 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/01/25 02:33 PM |
| – | Whats your opinion on what men think the female gaze is?I would hate that. Someone may as well have walked up to me and said “I like your packaging, I’d like to take it somewhere”. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/01/25 02:31 PM |
| – | Whats your opinion on what men think the female gaze is?It feels utterly ridiculous and derivative. People love a scapegoat excuse for their unhappiness. It’s easy to give a list of things the average person doesn’t have / doesn’t do and say “I fail because of this” despite the glaringly obvious fact that millions of very average people don’t fail. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/01/25 02:30 PM |
| – | How can a man not feel worse when he realizes that his girlfriend/wife behaves more restrictedly and less passionately with him than with her past partners?I’m still unclear as to what you mean. It’s a very obscure post which seems to suggest he’s into being cucked. If he wanted a relationship with the person he’s in a relationship with, what changed? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/01/25 06:04 PM |
| – | How can a man not feel worse when he realizes that his girlfriend/wife behaves more restrictedly and less passionately with him than with her past partners?I’m confused by your take. Are you saying that you want a woman who sees you as potential relationship material to have sex with you and barely talk to you for weeks while seeing other people? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/01/25 03:34 PM |
| – | If women are hypergamous, does this mean that social status is more important that everything else?In all honesty, I have an attraction to men who are more intelligent than I am. I’m hopelessly enthralled by men who can teach me new things and engage me in intellectual conversation. It doesn’t matter whether they earn more, look a certain way or any other marker. If they engage my brain, make me reconsider my world view and have an open emotional softness, I’m hopelessly charmed. 🥹 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/12/24 10:27 AM |
| 3 | Are you really "doing it for yourself"?I wear perfume, dress nicely and such almost every day. Most days it’s just me by myself at home. No company. No selfies. Just enjoying the things I’ve worked hard to earn and feeling good in my skin. 🤷♀️ | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/12/24 05:05 PM |

| 2 | Q4W: Why do you only swipe right on the minority of men?Ideally I’d like to meet someone who wants to go to the front at metal gigs. That’s more of a concern than anything else 🤷♀️ | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/24 12:32 AM |
| 4 | Q4W: Why do you only swipe right on the minority of men?I’m single, live alone and just spent £200 on a hair dryer in the Black Friday sale. I’m not looking for money, I have my own. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/24 12:25 AM |
| 1 | Q4W: Why do you only swipe right on the minority of men?Job wise, my only preference is “must not work for or have ever worked for the armed services or police”. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/11/24 12:21 AM |
| 4 | Q4W: Why do you only swipe right on the minority of men?Not hugely, that makes it harder though. So few people bother to write or show anything meaningful on their profile. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/11/24 09:33 PM |
| 14 | Q4W: Why do you only swipe right on the minority of men?I swipe left because: they have a dog, they have kids, they’re half naked in a bunch of their pics, they posted photos in bed, they posted gym selfies, they have a drink in every photo, they didn’t write anything in their profile, they wrote something unattractive in their profile, they’re only looking for hookups, they smoke, they’re religious, they want kids… and so on. Honestly, that’s probably the majority of men, so guilty. 🥲 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/11/24 09:19 PM |
| – | The age gap stigma is a silly modern social construct which has been perpetuated by womens jealousy and is actually a product of hookup culture + feminismI feel the stigma as a woman turning 41 in February who is pursued almost entirely by men aged 32 and younger. Personally, it works both ways. I find it unnerving that most of the men who ask me out or message me online are ~10 years younger or more. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/11/24 01:52 AM |
| 2 | Why do women dress provocatively if they don't like most men?Being attracted to things you perceive as provocative is buying into a societal trope. There are tribes where women walk around in virtually nothing, and their bodies aren’t fetishised - simply because it’s the norm for women to be bare breasted and similarly dressed to men. Accepting that fetishisation is engrained in you because of your own preconceptions is a better viewpoint than worrying about people getting the wrong impression. Not being funny, but I’m fetishised when wearing jeans and a … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/11/24 12:26 AM |
| 1 | Why do women dress provocatively if they don't like most men?I make outfit choices based on how much I like the clothing and the overall aesthetic, not based on how people will perceive me wearing it. If I focused on what other people thought of me that much, I might never get dressed or go anywhere. Consider that your fetishisation of apparel and bodies is the root cause of your perceptions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/11/24 03:39 PM |
| 1 | q4w: what is a skill that you learned that makes you insanely hot?I mean… those are all interests. I can’t say any of the things I do or find intriguing aim to be sexy. I wouldn’t stop doing any of them if people thought they were off putting. 🥲 In my mind, being sexy is more about charisma, body language and personal interaction. 🤷♀️ I can find some people more attractive because I share interests with them (and as such, conversation is more natural and it’s easier to bond), but I don’t find those things sexy because someone is doing them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/11/24 10:55 AM |
| 3 | q4w: what is a skill that you learned that makes you insanely hot?Aha - see point “Debating politics / sociology”. I find the pill stuff interesting. 🙃 As a side note, I’m not sure any of us are emotionally healthy, we all have our foibles and mess. ✨ | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/11/24 10:52 AM |

I would be much more open to dating / relationships and far less guarded about it, if it wasn’t such a huge responsibility to run a household, advance my career and secure my future. The truth is that being comfortably independent comes at huge cost to your emotional boundaries. You’re more likely to nope out of things which could be detrimental to your wellbeing, you’re less likely to take risks on things you’re not sure about and you’re more likely to be c… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/24 12:16 PM |

Why aren’t women interested in him?Having hobbies, opinions, beliefs, morals etc would indicate that the man is anything more than a shallow husk of a person, which is what his friends equate him to be in this post. 🙃 A man with a good job and a societal benchmark for physical attraction might not be dateable for thousands of reasons. Maybe he’s super religious maybe he has insecurities, maybe he’s condescending, maybe he took ivermectin during the pandemic and doesn’t shut up about it, maybe he is the most boring man on the plan… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/24 06:33 AM |
| – | Case study: A top 10% man who has it all. Why aren’t women interested in him?No, charisma isn’t substance. It’s a minor personality trait at best and the only one mentioned by his supposed good friends, which is tragic. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/24 06:23 AM |
| – | Case study: A top 10% man who has it all. Why aren’t women interested in him?There is 0 substance to this man if he is just a body and a job. I wouldn’t date that either. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/24 06:14 AM |

| – | Single doesn’t mean being lonely - you’re focused on the wrong issueI don’t think you can say it’s ADHD. I’m ND too. It sounds like you’ve not spent much time in your own head or skin, you default toward using other people to occupy your mind and body. It’s great you’ve made progress but FR, let’s say you settle down and your man dies age 76 and you live till 82.

| – | Single doesn’t mean being lonely - you’re focused on the wrong issueMaybe an off piste take, but I find it super easy to be alone for weeks at a time as a woman. I have no issue socialising. No issue finding dates or partners and no social hang ups preventing me from seeing people. I just like the rest / calm of spending my free time relaxing or at the gym.

| 4 | First dating app for people with autism and ADHD launchesThe no BS approach, the hobbies, the way of thinking… it all aligns. I find NT people (especially men) infuriating. Look up ‘tism riz’ on any social video app - it’s almost entirely ND women explaining or stating their preference for dating ND men. Probably a better sample group than one woman on Reddit. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 04:54 PM |

| 1 | It's rare for a man to be with a woman who likes him for who he is as a human being instead of what he can provide.The only reason a woman would want a provider / someone to pay for her is if she needed someone else’s money.
