| 2 | Men need to start leaving women alone.It would be much, much worse without porn. Sure you have a lot of that but a lot of guys are at least kept sufficiently satiated that they have a measurably satisfying life without a girlfriend and not have their libidos bothering them as much. Like I said though, the real measure would be a neuroscience breakthrough that allows people to change sexuality at will. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/26 05:09 PM |
| 7 | Men need to start leaving women alone.Being in a social circle and approaching a woman because you like her character is completely different from cold approaching a woman because you like her boobs. Except sticking to within social circles is a terrible idea. You only have a limited amount of shots, and given that women find a lower percentage of men attractive than vice versa, chances of striking out are high. And what then? A man who confines himself to only dating within a social circle will very often have no one. Also, men are… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/26 04:17 PM |
| 1 | Men need to start leaving women alone.Men are already satiated to a large extent by porn. And I've said this before, but if neuroscience ever discovers how to alter sexuality I think straight men will swamp requests for this just so they can be gay and get laid easily. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/26 04:00 PM |
| 1 | It's Currently 2026. Predict What Dating Will Be Like For Both Men And Women In 2040.The whole status and money thing looks completely different. By 2040 most jobs are gone due to AI and robotics. There isn't really "poverty" or "low status" so to speak. Almost everyone has no job and lives off of UBI, doing whatever they want with limitless free time. A small upper class, consisting of company owners, high-end professionals who oversee the tech, and people in physical jobs that are less easy to robotify such as electricians and plumbers, as well as those with legacy money, will… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/26 07:18 AM |
| 0 | Women Keep Bringing Up Rape to Shut Down Male ConcernsIt isn't negative support, it's just horniness. If men had female sex drives they wouldn't bother dating. If science ever finds out how to modify human sexuality I suspect a lot of men will turn gay to have more sex. It has nothing to do with being "taught" and "socialized." | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/26 12:39 AM |
| 1 | Thoughts on shy, no-experience men?If it were the other way around men absolutely would be shamed into solving the problem. You already see that with age gap relationships. Older guys like Leonardo Dicaprio, who pretty much every woman his own age wants but can't get, are shamed and ridiculed for their dating choices for a reason. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/01/26 02:20 PM |
| – | A lot of young men are leaning conservative simply because leftists/liberals aren’t making it a point to speak directly to men, like they do to other groups, which conservatives take advantage ofSaying "my party is obviously the correct one and has all the solutions" won't convince everyone even if I do think said party would be generally closer to my preferences on most domestic issues were I still living in the US, though some of the more insane stuff puts me off. However, as I said, this is not just a US phenomenon. The causes need to also be seen in the context of what the left is like in general. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/12/25 11:51 AM |

| – | A lot of young men are leaning conservative simply because leftists/liberals aren’t making it a point to speak directly to men, like they do to other groups, which conservatives take advantage ofFirst of all, it varies by country. "Lack of affordable healthcare" doubtless means you're referring to a US context but this is a phenomenon elsewhere too. In the US both parties have also pushed policies that most people don't support but one party treats men as the enemy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/12/25 11:36 AM |
| – | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerThey're a reasonable proxy because they're a type of man who has more choice than any other type of man. A billionaire, or really any seriously rich man, has women lining up to date him. These guys can behave based purely on their desires without any constraints imposed by female selectivity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 06:00 PM |
| 2 | What "false rape allegation" statistics say & what people imagine they sayI don't think the issue is just false rape allegations. It's honest rape allegations that point to the wrong guy. There's a guy named Ronald Cotton who wrote a book with his former accuser about him. He spent years in prison because she honestly believed he was her rapist. When it comes to a crime where so much hinges on testimony the system has to be really careful. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/12/25 08:50 PM |

| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerThe fact that women seem to care more about this stuff at a base level even when the workforce is open to them seems to indicate that it is indeed biological. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 07:48 PM |
| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerMales would almost certainly have played the primary roles in any such hunting. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 05:32 PM |
| 0 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerThere's a difference between taking part in hunts and being the main hunter. Men were almost certainly responsible for hunting big game. Both men and women probably took part in fishing and trapping smaller animals. Protecting the band from predators and rival tribes, other stuff that would likely have been high status back then, would have fallen on men. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 05:19 PM |
| 0 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerI'm talking about a few decades ago, when women actually could and did support themselves (even if discriminated against) and did not need a man for basic survival. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 04:49 PM |
| 0 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerThe attraction just switched off. As soon as it became clear a relationship was not feasible any level of desire just went away. Interesting. You're saying that if she were to strip naked you wouldn't have been attracted? If that's true it's your experience I guess but from what I understand that's not how most guys work. You realise females in that era did the bulk of 'providing' through foraging and when necessary hunting? I can believe that women foraged more. Hunted? No, unless maybe we're t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 04:48 PM |

| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerIt's just a clear example. Billionaires are a subcategory of society and one where men actually are swimming in choice so male behavior in that category can be a reasonable proxy for men as a whole. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 04:45 PM |
| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerA guy might care about your work and knowledge. The high status it brings just might not be as much of an attraction trigger for him as the other way around. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 04:44 PM |
| 0 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerLizard brain is basically just saying "natural instinct." Just like men's lizard brains care far more about looks. Women also marry in the same class due to proximity and conscious choice. But that choice for both sexes is also driven by attraction. Men can choose to overlook the hot waitress 20 years younger if they can find a reasonably attractive partner in their own age and status range. However, women seem to have attraction to status that can make it harder to be attracted to lower status … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 01:16 PM |
| -1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerThe point of course is that billionaire are more likely to marry women with no social background than the other way. It's only logical in that they're doing what they're hardwired to do. That may not always be the most logical thing from a purely financial point of view given that they'll sometimes go after golddiggers who clearly only care about their money. They're doing it because as men they're biologically hardwired to go after good looks. Likewise, women are hardwired to go after status in… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 01:13 PM |
| 0 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerBoth sides make the decision but men are simply not biologically hardwired to care as much about status in the way women seem to be. Just like men often make decisions based on looks to a greater extent than women do. It's a decision based on feeling sexual attraction, and the attraction triggers are not the same across both sexes. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 12:54 PM |
| -1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerMen largely made more than their wives throughout the past decades. It's obviously not true that men are turned off by making more to the extent that women are turned off by lower-status men. Why is "conditioning" always the explanation? As if these things just came out of nowhere and were dreamed up at random. Perhaps if something socially conditioned seems to be persistent maybe it's based on biology and not just conditioning? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 12:35 PM |
| -3 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerI think to a certain extent it is. How many billionaire women do you think would be willing to marry some middle class computer programmer who is perfectly stable but is far from a billionaire? Some would but I'd guess the percentage of wealthy men who'd be fine with such an arrangement is higher. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 12:18 PM |
| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerIt depends by place I guess. I live in Israel, where you can travel the world quite easily even on unimpressive wages simply due to location. Were I ever to return to the US travel would be extremely difficult even with a much higher salary. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 12:13 PM |
| 2 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerYou just made my point for me. You said she was attractive and ticked the boxes but broke it off due to different life stages. Did you lose sexual attraction to her or did you just realize that she wasn't what you were looking for and despite how attractive she was this simply was not going to work? Also, yes status can vary by country. When I say status I don't just mean in a strictly modern white collar sense, I mean anyone considered to have high status and showing indications of being an abl… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 12:01 PM |
| -5 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerI think women have an ingrained instinct to go after status that men don't. Even if far from universal or all-determining. Status of course varies. What was high-status 10k years ago is not what's high-status today, and what is high status varies by the circumstances of the place and social environment you grow up in. I suspect that many kids born into poverty are born to fathers who built status in the context of their rundown neighborhood who have multiple kids. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 11:58 AM |
| -6 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerI'm not saying that women are more illogical in this. Just that they seem more likely to be put off by a low status guy due to sexual attraction triggers and turnoffs that are ingrained. Just like a guy might turn down a girl who might otherwise be perfect for him because of insufficient looks (I've done that repeatedly). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 11:54 AM |
| 1 | What I think people get wrong about whether or not men care about your careerI didn't suggest that literally all older professional men preferred their peers. Just that the stats show marriage is still largely in the same socioeconomic bracket. In fact between the two men obviously have the greater average desire to go for a younger hottie, even if in practice it doesn't always work out that way. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 11:48 AM |
| 1 | Men wouldn't complain about "modern women" or feminism if both sexes were equally attracted to each otherThose problems are all solvable in ways that the sexual thing isn't without hard science. We have various solutions we can implement today regarding them but a key problem is going to need serious research. It needs more attention. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/12/25 01:57 PM |
| 0 | Men wouldn't complain about "modern women" or feminism if both sexes were equally attracted to each otherIt is a primary issue and no amount of platonic intimacy will make it go away. The actual solution to persistent male lack of sexual success with little hope of things changing is science. Turn them gay, turn off their sexuality entirely, or create some ultra-realistic experience far more immersive than porn. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/12/25 01:44 PM |
| 1 | Men wouldn't complain about "modern women" or feminism if both sexes were equally attracted to each otherSure but a huge complaint is the sexual needs not being met, given the strength of the male sex drive. They'll only be truly satisfied once you give them an outlet they'll be happy with. Either make them gay so they can attend the famous gay orgies or some hyper-realistic simulation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/12/25 01:16 PM |

| 5 | Dating apps need to be regulated!It's numerous things. The bots as well as the fact that they obviously suppress accounts. There's a reason that you typically get more likes when you first set your account up. Plus they're pretty ban happy to the point that people report getting banned due to malicious reports, and once you're banned from one app you're banned from all, effectively cutting you off from most of the mainstream online dating market. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/10/25 10:14 PM |

| 2 | Dating apps need to be regulated!No, 15,000 men wouldn't be kicked off, they'd have to wait their turn. This would give time to the other guys to find a partner before they could go onto the apps and actually have a much better experience than now. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/10/25 07:46 PM |

| 1 | Men don’t feel entitled to a relationship/sex, women just have free access to itNo, it's because of jealousy. More plainly, because younger people are usually more attractive than older people. All the women he dates know what the deal is. They get to be with the Leonardo Dicaprio for a bit before he moves on to the next one. They have plenty of wealth and fame of their own. They're not grooming victims. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/09/25 04:10 PM |

He was a heartthrob when he was young and it makes sense he still appeals to women of his generation. Plus he's rich and famous. He's pretty much as desirable as a man can get on the dating market.

These are rich and famous women. They're not naive girls. It's not like he's some sort of groomer seeking to trap them. It's pure resentment that a man of his stature only wants younger women and can get them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/09/25 11:42 AM |

I'm not speaking about this from the perspective of an old man, I just know how male sexuality works and imagine how I'd think in the shoes of someone like that. From the way I can imagine it, losing your virginity as an old man might be a relief to some, but for quite a few guys I imagine might feel like sort of a joke. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/25 09:17 PM |
| 1 | Men need to accept that dating may not be on the cards for themMen care about looks a lot more than women do. If they only get to experience it at a time when people are less attractive, as well as when they're less horny, they will often still feel they missed out on something fundamental that no amount of sex while older would make up for. Some might not even bother if they finally get the opportunity when old. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/25 01:50 PM |

It's not a "lack of willigness" so much as a lack of a requirement. When men say they don't care, it generally means they literally don't care. She could be a barista or a finance managing director.

Gay men can more easily be happily single because a lot of them can basically just go on Grindr and order up sex whenever they want. If straight men had those sexual opportunities, or if their sex drives declined to the level of the female sex drive, it would be extremely easy for them to be happily single. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/02/25 05:19 AM |

What's illegal is getting it on the sly, meaning if all's good she never knows. This basically forces men to risk breaking up their marriages every time they want to, making them less likely to do it.

But if the expectation is that the man approaches, by natural consequence of that they will be approached by men they're not attracted to.

| – | How are men supposed to meet women?The thing to do if you don't want to donate your time is to politely say no, get assertive only if they don't take no for an answer, and otherwise go along with your day.

| – | How are men supposed to meet women?Nobody enjoys being "hassled". I love how you imply that an unattractive man by his temerity to even ask is hassling. If a man gets a pass from an unattractive woman, the proper thing to do is politely reject her, and only get mean/assertive if she doesn't move on. Not try to crush her ego and insult her for daring to even try so she never tries to find a man again. A man doing something like that would be widely decried as an asshole. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/08/23 03:06 PM |

Once you get older and enter your 40s its hit or miss but a lot of people these days don't look particularly bad at 40 either.

As people age the pool of available single men disproportionately shrinks further and further. Eventually you start seeing the supply and demand issue at work, men are hornier so in a dating pool with the two sexes largely equal there will be greater demand for women but eventually the thinning out of men shifts who is in more demand. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/23 05:41 PM |

I've been following this for years. Anyway, what scientists are looking at is to reverse the aging process, so you won't just live longer as an old person, but to actually restore youthfulness. Also, LOL at the overpopulation claims. You realize that the global fertility rate is dropping and will go below replacement by mid-century or so, right? And immortality won't be an actual thing, as people die of a variety of causes, not just aging. Anyw… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/22 09:21 AM |
| 1 | If 90% of men died, and the 10% were average guys, would they be highly sought after?Yes, absolutely. We already have real world examples of this phenomenon, we don't have to speculate. After the Paraguayan War of 1864 to 1870 over 90% of Paraguay's male population was wiped out. The end result was mass polygamy with even Catholic priests encouraged to end their celibacy and occupying Brazilian, Argentine, and Uruguayan troops fathering a lot of the subsequent generations of Paraguayans. Even when we get to below 90% we can see something similar. See what it was like in Western … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/03/22 04:03 PM |

| 2 | Does a HVM have anything to gain from dating a FDS woman?His whole post is ego laden. He’s single because he has a huge ugly ego, being single doesn’t mean someone will necessarily have an ego.

| 2 | Does a HVM have anything to gain from dating a FDS woman?I don’t think by making a certain amount and looking a certain way you’re automatically high value. So in other words "high value" basically means "whatever I think it means." Clearly, none of your relationships have worked out so they can’t be all that positive. Maybe check the ego and do some self reflection. Right only men have ego and have something wrong if they're still single in their 30s. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/02/22 02:58 PM |

| 1 | Telling unattractive men that increasing their "status" will boost their SMV is a red herringPeople tend to assume that you can just magically boost "status." They say "just get a high-paying career" as if you can do it with little effort.

Of course I don't begrudge anyone for their dating standards. The thing is, men are judged for their own standards much more harshly by Western wokesters. A man who wants to date a significantly younger woman or a thin woman will be judged far more harshly by the woke brigade than a woman who doesn't want to date a short or poor dude.

You say there won't be "less rape" without proof when I've shown multiple sources that there will be. In any event it's about simply recognizing reality.

Decriminalization means legalization of selling but not of buying, legalizing means buying. As I said, in a lot of cases the effect is the same.

| 1 | Do you agree with FDS teaching on women not dating older men?FDS is designed to serve the female interest and imperative in dating, at the expense of men. Men dating younger women, particularly successful men who actually have a chance (AKA the ones they classify as "HVM") further distorts the dating market to older women's disadvantage. Sure some men have a desire to be controlling or other issues, but lots of perfectly decent men are in relationships with younger women. The idea that every man dating a younger woman is some sort of abuser is ridiculous.… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/06/20 09:59 AM |

| 1 | How many people do you know who actually don’t care about a woman’s job/intelligence?Again what we have here is a fundamental misunderstanding of all this. Men do indeed often care about a woman's job or intelligence but it's not out of sexual attraction, it's out of knowledge that the relationship would be likelier to succeed. But the woman has to have physical attributes to attract him. What men mean when they say this is that they don't view it as inherently attractive in and of itself. Women are hardwired to be sexually attracted to hardworking men or men of high status. To … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/20 07:14 PM |
| 2 | I am tired of guys here repeating that "guys do not care about the education or success of women."That's not what I meant. Women are instinctively attracted to status and success. Call it golddigging if you want, it's just biology. The main issue is that while men may consciously choose to pursue women of high status, they are not hard wired to be attracted to it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/20 02:02 PM |
| 3 | I am tired of guys here repeating that "guys do not care about the education or success of women."I think people misinterpret this. Guys do care but in an abstract sense. Like for example if a woman is attracted to a man but knows for whatever reason it won't work, she'll still reject him despite the attraction. Men can consciously choose to date highly educated women with successful careers. However, women are hardwired to find signs of status and wealth sexually attractive. That means if a man doesn't have the physical attributes to attract her, he still might be able to with success in hi… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/20 10:06 AM |

| 7 | If increasing male sexlessness corresponds with a lack of productivity, that coupled with high market demand will cause jurisdictions to relax or do away with laws against prostitution and lead to its acceptance as a “necessary evil.”Laws against prostitution should be relaxed not over any of this but because banning consenting adults from deciding to pay for sex is fucking stupid. Plus prostitution bans just increase human trafficking. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/05/20 01:13 PM |

The marketplace shrinks for women over time, in part due to the fact that men die earlier. The problem, of course, is that a lot might resent having missed out on it in their prime and having a pick of partners more sexually experienced than them. Then there's sexbots.

Of course it's not to the same threatening level as women experience but at the same time, when you have women showing blatant entitlement in complaining about how men their age are so shallow and evil for ignoring women in their age range in favor of hot young women there are similarities. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/05/20 11:09 AM |

My problem is that men are criticized for their standards far more and women who lose out in the dating game are viewed with far more sympathy. Men are at a disadvantage in their youth, and it's no big problem if they don't have girlfriends because they dont have much to offer. But then as people get older women are the ones more likely to lose out, and suddenly men are evil bec… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/20 08:11 AM |
| 1 | Sex dolls certainly aren't for me, but I see how for a lot of men they have a good bit of appeal. Women are just scared that it means that men won't be as aggressive in approaching them. They are also scared that women would have to try hard in the sexual marketplace themselves.A lot of men probably will. It isn't just gross and creepy men, a lot of relatively normal men get frustrated with dating in their 20s. What is gross and creepy in your view anyway? I also think a lot of old guys will prefer them to women their own age. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/09/18 05:32 PM |

But the accused man was imaginary.To be honest, our justice system considers it acceptable to let some guilty people go in order to prevent a single innocent from being punished.

In my opinion, even if it does deter some rape victims from coming forward, it's worth it to keep more innocents out of prison. | /r/MensRights | 06/04/15 04:15 AM |
