| 17 | Q4M: if women don't respond well to men being vulnerable, why would we push so hard for it? What do we have to gain from lying?I want you to point to me where she said her partner failed to regulate his emotions sufficiently? “When I was in my twenties, I would go to couples therapy, and my partner of more than ten years would explain how I asked him to talk about his feelings and when he did, I would freak out. He was right. It was hard for me to face that I did not want to hear about his feelings when they were painful or negative, that I did not want my image of the strong man truly challenged by learning of his weak… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/25 11:31 PM |
| 20 | Q4M: if women don't respond well to men being vulnerable, why would we push so hard for it? What do we have to gain from lying?“Let’s say I agree” brother there isn’t anything for you to “disagree” with lmaooo. Literally click on the link. SHE asked him to open up and then was uncomfortable that he opened up and she felt weird about how she asked him to open up and then saw him as weak. I feel like we’re having two conversations here. This isnt focused on emotional regulation (which I never once said it was the partners burden) the entire point of the convo is talking about how the talking point of “the women who say th… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/25 11:17 PM |
| 26 | Q4M: if women don't respond well to men being vulnerable, why would we push so hard for it? What do we have to gain from lying?Nope, it’s not the issue. You kinda skipped over how Bell Hooks admitted that SHE was uncomfortable hearing her partner after SHE wanted him to open up. This isn’t simply about how to handle emotions but the idea that women can uphold patriarchal ideas as well. Just like the TikTok, bell hooks had issues seeing her man as weak. Go read my linked article and you’ll see she was reflecting on her own struggles in allowing him to open up | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/25 11:06 PM |
| 46 | Q4M: if women don't respond well to men being vulnerable, why would we push so hard for it? What do we have to gain from lying?This is really reductive as noted feminist Bell hooks herself would disagree with you as she described how she reacted negatively to her partners emotions despite championing for vulnerability. If one of the biggest feminist writers could acknowledge that she herself did this, there’s no shot she’s the only one I agree with you on that second one. The same way men are told to bottle up emotions, they are not used to seeing us express them. So esp if a man who is opening up for the first time doe… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/05/25 08:32 PM |
| -2 | Porn is not cheatingLmao yeah you don’t want a real discussion you just wanna virtue signal Edit: we are dumbass Homo sapiens who still fall for our innate human instincts. Go take a masters level psychology course and they’ll literally report the same thing ( that’s where I got these arguments). You people don’t actually care about solutions, you only care about signaling to your tribe that you’re on the right side. I’ve shown sources that porn doesn’t cause violence and yet I’m accused of some weird theory I neve… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/10/24 04:41 PM |
| 0 | Porn is not cheatingChamp, you realize until the 90s spousal rape wasn’t federally illegal and many states treated it as not a big deal? I think it’s better to not force women to accept their husbands full sexual energy based on some idealized version of relationships you have in your mind. Despite the hysteria, porn seems to lower sexual violence so idk why removing these outlets is a good thing in your eyes? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/10/24 04:13 PM |
| 1 | Porn is not cheatingEhhh I respect you for being consistent, but I doubt most men who had a partner who went to see or read 50 shades of Grey actually gave a fuck. People like Fabio have been selling sensuality to women for decades and most people understand that their partner needs an outlet especially in times of hardship or stress. I get it, this creates a weird visceral feeling but I feel it’s a way bigger ask to expect a partner to be a persons sole sexual outlet. Like what happens if a couple splits, couldn’t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/10/24 03:48 PM |
| -1 | Women, if a man left you because he wasn't the best you've ever had, would you be offended?"I will do my best to respond" | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/10/24 01:39 AM |
| 0 | Women, if a man left you because he wasn't the best you've ever had, would you be offended?“I will do my best to respond” I literally acknowledged I fucked up and came on too aggressive and that my biases may have gotten the best of me and yet you didn’t respond at all. I see you were just lying and hoping I wasn’t actually wanting a real discussion because I clearly asked questions while simultaneously acknowledging that my preconceived ideas might have clouded my initial judgment. If that isn’t good faith then you don’t know what that phrase means | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/10/24 06:13 PM |
| 1 | Women, if a man left you because he wasn't the best you've ever had, would you be offended?I’ll fully admit I jumped the gun a bit. I’m open for a honest discussion and I’ll keep an open mind moving forward. But if we’re having a good faith discussion, lets be honest and admit there was a clear implication in your original comment that men are worse at handling emotions, especially in heated situations, based on your anecdotal experience. Then you provided a link that explicitly states men and women show similar emotional stability and fluctuations. Yes, you did not use the words “emo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/10/24 03:46 AM |
| -1 | Women, if a man left you because he wasn't the best you've ever had, would you be offended?I was just about to say, even in the comment above the person does just that. They assert their anecdotal evidence that men are actually MORE emotionally stunted and can’t regulate their emotions compared to women while then immediately shows a link that says men and women have no discernible emotion differences. I feel like u/conanthecybrarian wants their cake and eat it too, men are both simultaneously immature at handling emotions while then shows a link which says “They found that men and wo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/10/24 02:47 PM |
| – | More boys are now out of school globally than girls, and the inequality is bound to get worse [There is no patriarchy series]Did you even watch the video lmao before your little gotcha? “Blue states are the problem. Blue states are where the housing crisis is located. Blue states are where the disparities in education funding are the most dramatic. Blue states are the places where 10s of thousands of homeless people are on the streets. Blue states are where economic inequality is increasing most quickly in this country. This isn’t a situation of not doing well enough, blue states ARE the problem.” All said within the … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/10/24 09:40 PM |
| – | More boys are now out of school globally than girls, and the inequality is bound to get worse [There is no patriarchy series]I mean here’s a NYT video detailing the education systems in CT and IL which overwhelming help the rich while shafting poor residents (skip to about 10ish minutes). The very blue cook county has effectively gerrymandered themselves to be over 140 school districts which results in property taxes for the wealthy providing adequate schools for some while others are dealing with failing infrastructure. The video also details Washington state’s regressive taxes (most regressive in the nation, yes eve… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/10/24 09:31 PM |
| 28 | Women don't save money because they expect the man to take care of themDude already made his mind up lol. He provides a source that says women are getting paid less than men and then he spouts “the wage gap is a myth.” Well not according to your own source buddy | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/10/23 08:23 PM |
| 9 | New study shows that 5% of men sleep with 66% of young women. Will society destabilize from most men being neglected?You’re not really waiting for the data are you when you’ve made definitive statements like “Sluts are banging sluts, and the remaining women want nothing to do with the remaining men who want relationships…Just cause women prefer being celibate over being in a situationship with Chad, doesn't help the fact they still don't want their looksmatch (or whatever term you want)” Do you mean that you’re just waiting for that new data to confirm your biases because the above statement doesn’t sound like… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/10/23 11:07 PM |
| 1 | Reviving A ClassicHey I’m still confused as to where your source says that men pay all the bills disproportionately, can you send me the section you were referring to? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/06/23 12:38 AM |
| 3 | Reviving A ClassicSo then why did the guy link the source? He said men paid the bills and then linked this source, you realize that right? All I’m asking is what does this source have to do with his argument. Maybe he can point me to what I’m missing in that pdf because why else would he link the source? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/23 12:39 PM |
| 3 | Reviving A ClassicBro did you even read the abstract of that paper you linked? Or read into the paper at all? Abstract: “The data reveal that that women, even when they are the primary earner, are much more likely than men to have the major responsibility for household shopping and bill paying. With regard to financial decisionmaking, however, there is a greater propensity to share responsibility equally, and income ranking is more important than gender in defining household roles, with higher earners more likely… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/23 11:53 AM |
| – | CMV : The human brain doesn’t care about statistics, it perceives “average” as what’s physiologically possible, not numerical distributionWhat about this passage from the article which cites the Federal Reserve bank of St. Louis who used Census data. “Real median income dropped 3.4% for families, from $87,085 in 2019 to $84,088 in 2020.5 Families include related members in a household. As expected, the mean family income was much higher, at $114,962. However, this was a 2.7% drop from the 2019 level of $118,192. And the article provided two citations 1 2 You still have yet to provide me anything that shows that we should use mean … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/23 02:48 AM |
| – | CMV : The human brain doesn’t care about statistics, it perceives “average” as what’s physiologically possible, not numerical distributionOh you’re right, it’s actually 30k difference between household median and average earnings not 27k thanks for looking out! Even bigger than I previously stated. My first link says “In 2020, the average household income was $97,026. The median household income—the number more frequently cited—was $67,521.” Want me to provide anything else for you to show you the issues with using average over median? You’re adamant average is the correct stat to use while I’ve provided two sources (one of them a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/23 05:52 PM |
| – | CMV : The human brain doesn’t care about statistics, it perceives “average” as what’s physiologically possible, not numerical distribution"Average income" is a term used by many to describe median income, or how much money the people at the middle of the income scale make per year. Median income is a more accurate picture of middle-earner's income than average income because the number of high earners skews the average income amount. The mean is calculated by adding together all the values, and then dividing them by the number of values you have. As long as the data is symmetrically distributed (that is, if when you plot them on a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/23 02:57 PM |
| – | CMV : The human brain doesn’t care about statistics, it perceives “average” as what’s physiologically possible, not numerical distributionNo you’re the one who is mistaken. Average/Mean is regularly skewed by outliers, median would be more “representative” of the physique most people have. Both super obese people and super athletic people both throw off the average physique while if we were to look at what physique falls in the middle of the distribution we’d be able to have a better understanding of what the most common/normal physique looks like. Think about average v median income stats, average wage in the US is 27k more than … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/23 02:22 PM |
