Idk, advice on what you have to do to improve your situation is going to be too personal for a stranger to help with. I'm just saying having a kid isn't a retirement plan. Though finding a partner to split bills with would help in the interim. I didn't down vote

If you don't have money to stash away for retirement how are you going to afford taking care of a kid? Who's to say they are going to have the money or the desire to take care of you, anyway?

It is not within his control to determine whether a particular woman will want to date him. However, it is within his control to make himself more appealing to a wider demographic of women. If he is not satisfied with his options, he can make himself more desirable.

Men who "approach" women, will most likely have experience Women view this is a very good thing. while "good men" could be avoiding escalating with fear of ruining a good friendship or being percieved the wrong way. There is no risk of this if you are socially competent, especially if it's a friend since you can test the waters very easily. You don't need to fully commit to get an answer. The real reason a man doesn't approach is cowardice or social incompetence which are both very unattractive …

How are you measuring "success" when you say China is the most successful? China has a per capita GDP of $13,000 USD, the only reason they are bigger in GDP is that they have a billion (literally) more people than the US. They have 23% of the world's work force and contribute 20% of the world's GDP. US has about 5% of the worlds workforce and contributes about 15% of the world's GDP. The US is unique in that it is such a huge country with a crazy high GDP per capita ($89,000 USD per capita). Onl…

Idk why you had any opinion on it if you just had to look up the word lol. I'm just pointing out that it being done voluntarily or out of medical necessity in different contexts has no baring on whether or not it's mutilation. I'm sure there are situations where a clitoris has been removed out of medical necessity.

A medical procedure without consent or medical necessity can be mutilation can it not? Some people will remove their whole penis voluntarily or due to medical necessity, doing so without consent would be mutilation no?

You want someone who will stay with you while you go through hard times and so you offer that same stability/reliability in return. You balance the transaction. Love is just one consideration in a long list.

What is the difference between seduction and flirting to you? In my mind they are similar concepts, seduction is just more specifically sexy. Seduction doesn't have a negative connotation for me.

I think there are absolutely things we can do as a society to change behaviours without directly legislating against it. Even just having these conversations will change behaviours, like any guy reading your comment with some self awareness will feel embarrassed if they fit your description.

You're still not really being specific about what this means Regard something as worthy of attention. If a woman tells you she doesn't like something you're doing during sex you should definitely take that seriously.... Yeah of course

Well that's just part of communication. Obviously he needs to be open to feedback, empathetic and understanding. But the feedback itself needs to be given appropriately as well. If a woman finds herself constantly making her partners feel self conscious that's not necessarily indicative of a problem with men. This is a two way street as well.
/r/PurplePillDebate29/04/25 11:37 AM

But that follows many attempts to communicate Well that wasn't the scenario I gave right, the scenario was in the case where she didn't attempt to communicate or did so inadequately. The question was about what degree women are responsible for their own orgasms, obviously if the man is forcing her to be uncommunicative/ignoring her then she isn't going to be responsible. That's the same as the "zero effort" case. it’s because a lot of men react very badly when receiving any correction in the bed…

I agree with that, I mostly think complaints regarding the "orgasm gap" are more about a gap in satisfactory sex then the orgasm itself, but we use "orgasm" as more of shorter or easy way to describe and demonstrate the problem. It's not really a matter of "should we take her complaints seriously if she didn't communicate" since you're not obligated to listen to her at all and "taking her complaints seriously" doesn't do anything to solve the situation anyway. No one is obligated, it's about whe…

I would agree with you in a generalized sense, if a women is habitually or regularly having unsatisfactory sex then there is probably something she is doing wrong. In the moment, however, the whole point of the man being their is to make her feel good, if he's not doing that then he is failing. It's analogous to employment, the purpose of the worker is be productive if he is not then that is the workers fault and he may be fired because production is his responsibility. However, if a position is…

Obviously anyone putting in zero effort to make their partner orgasm is bad, I think the more meaningful/interesting discussion is to what degree is a woman responsible for her own orgasm. Like if a woman doesn't do anything to communicate dissatisfaction and in fact fakes an orgasm, should people take her complaints seriously after the fact? Some would take the view it 100% a man's responsibility, and that she shouldn't have to do anything but ensure he orgasms as well.

I agree it's less common for woman to identify as a "non-feminist egalitarian" than a man, but I don't think that really matters. It's probably just a personal choice for the woman related to their experiences with the feminist movement or the things they've read. Similarly, there are probably more men who play/watch baseball than there are women who play/watch baseball. That obviously doesn't mean that the women who do play/watch are doing so because of the men. They probably just have personal…

Why do you think it's to "coddle" red pill men? Is this a rationale that one of those women who identify as "egalitarian" has actually said? my guess would be it has nothing to do with men.

Ultimately the point you are getting across is that their "problem" is not really a problem (and further that they are pretending it is a problem to manipulate people). So, just argue that it's not a problem. It doesn't really matter if their "problem" falls into the category of "loneliness" or not. What matters is whether or not it is a problem worth sympathizing with. Maybe it's a personal thing but I just hate semantic arguments.

Language is more than the word you use. "My partner is away this weekend so I'm at home feeling lonely" Conveys a completely different sense of the word "lonely" than "I felt very lonely while working in Antarctica because I rarely got to interact with others" Or "Everyone is getting married and Im not, it makes me feel so lonely" People use the same words to convey different feelings with different degrees of emotion all the time. Again like who cares? Is anyone being misled when they say they …

Idk why people get so hung up on semantics here, it's such a casual word. people will say they are lonely when their partner is away for a weekend lmao. Some people think loneliness can mean a lack of intimate relationships, some people think it can mean that you are "alone in a crowd", some people think it only means not having any relationships, some think it means not having any social interaction at all. It really doesn't matter, it's just a word, you'll know what they mean by the context.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/25 08:57 PM

What's your solution to male loneliness "social dislocation" you talk about in your other comment? Forcing people to hang out with people they don't like? Feel like the solutions would be similar, third places, encouragement for socializing, giving people tools to become more desireable etc. I don't think anyone wants to force anything on anyone.

Because you seem confused as to what an analogy is lol. The obvious comparison is that men are practicing the skill (fishing vs attracting women) whereas women the ones being practiced upon. A fish only sees parts of the process, like the lure, but they don't see everything else that goes into it (location, fishing gear, etc). it compares men to fishers and women to fishes aka men are hunters and women are being hunted For an analogy to work you need the two situations to be different.

It's an analogy, if you want the same message in a different context there's a Steve Jobs quote: "it's not the customer's job to know what they want". Same idea is true for attracting men as well, a good example is men saying they don't care if a women wears makeup or prefer that they don't but then they can't even tell of a women has makeup on.

When people say "be yourself" they don't mean "don't improve". They just mean you shouldn't pretend to be someone you aren't, just be yourself. Don't pretend to like things she likes, or pretend you don't like things that she might judge you for. If you want to get a new degree or hit the gym go for it, just dont say you have a degree or love working out when you don't. Idk why people would take it to me "don't change", that doesn't even make sense, you always change.

I can agree with you as long as you kept that same energy at the start of the relationship. If holidays aren't important to you, then communicate that early and set the expectation. If you put in a bunch of effort early in the relationship when you're courting and then decide you don't care anymore, you can't be surprised when she's upset at the bait-and-switch or if she interprets it as you being lazy.

Most men who are mean, dishonest or abusive don't signal it immediately. Social awkwardness is just super obvious. If you sit down with a woman on the first date and call her fat, useless, etc (things that some abusive people do to their spouses regularly) you will have a similar or worse success rate to socially awkward dudes. It's just usually something that appears later.

You made a comment that you cannot offset pain or discomfort by taking on pain or discomfort for your partner later on. You don't get to offset causing pain or discomfort by doing something nice later. I pointed out that it is normal to take on some pain or discomfort for your partner and for them to do so later for you in return.

If it's too much discomfort for her she could just refuse to do it. But I can see there are endless rationalizations for why a woman should do something I never said anyone "should" do anything.

Not to them, that's why they don't want to do it. Not necessarily, for example I don't personally want to do anal because it grosses me out. But even if that is the case that it doesn't feel good to them, you can do something that makes her feel good after. maybe something that you don't necessarily want to do but you know she likes. As long as you work within each other's boundaries and communicate it's fine. So why do you when they don't want to? Because it feels good and they are willing to d…

If they don't want to do anal sex but aren't super opposed to it, they might do it if their partner wants to. That would mean they are willing to do it but they don't want to. Like how I am willing to do overtime if necessary for a project but I don't want to.

There are many reasons why someone might do something they don't like with one partner but not another. Were they scared of their partner at the time? Did they lack the confidence to say no? I don't want to replicate a shitty situation she once was part of just because I'm worried she isn't as attracted to me. Or maybe her tastes just changed or she has a lower libido now that she's older. There are many reasons, but as long as she keeps me sexually satisfied then idrc what she did with others. …

So they do care if she does it, it's not just an "it would be nice if she offered, I don't much care for it" situation. If he wants her to do it then yes it matters if she does it. However if he doesn't want to do it, they don't want her to pin him down and force him to do it. It's just about willingness and desire to do it if they have done it before with someone else, it's not about ensuring it actually happens.

No she has to be willing to do it, of course. But if the man refuses the offer then the rule isn't broken. It sounds like the OP is saying men need to get pegged if they have this rule and date a woman who previously pegged someone. My understanding is that the rationale for the rule is the idea that a woman is more attracted to her ex or loves him more or something if she is willing to do more sex acts with him. Its the willingness or desire to do those things that they care about, I don't thin…

whenever you read the phrase "average men" on this sub you just need to swap it with "ugly boring men" and it makes whatever sentence you are reading make sense.

I don't think so, I don't know of any guy who is craving a women's affection who then develops a deeper relationship with a male friend and suddenly stops craving a women's affection.

It would depend on the guy, obviously some men are more socially inept than others. If the point of your line of questioning is just to say "sometimes miscommunications happen", sure I agree. Sometimes that will be the man's fault, sometimes that will be the woman's fault. Other times though, there is no miscommunication and people are just being manipulative as well.

There are a lot of creative hobbies that arent really social, like playing music or drawing, introverts will gravitate to these.

in the context of that culture and the mentality she was groomed to have, yes. This framing is strange since all values you have are based on some intersection of biology and environment.

The reason that sentence is bad is the "back-burner" part, not the "good catch"/"husband material" part because that's the part that implies he isn't attractive as a short term partner. Being husband material / a good catch isn't mutually exclusive with being sexually appealing. A woman might call a man she met through a hookup husband material. There are a lot of times when they actually do marry men which they meet through hookups.

I dont think I've ever heard it used this way, can you give a scenario in which it is used this way?

I can't tell if you are disagreeing. When someone says a man is "husband material" they don't mean they have the bare minimum legal requirements for marriage within the respective state. They mean that the person would make a good husband.

I think that would be context dependent, if you said it after she cooks a good meal that would come off poorly. It would have nothing to do with the word "material" though, rather the association between cooking and her performance as wife. Any implication that a wife's job is to cook is going to come off poorly.

Build a time machine and stop himself from creating the fetus? He performed his role in reproduction, if she completes hers then he is a father, and the resultant child …

Post conception he's already completed his role in reproduction, he's made his decisions. Thats like asking how a guy can avoid responsibility for a terrorism plot when he planted the bombs and they are going off in 5 minutes. You are past the point of no return, his role was completed and he bears responsibility for his actions. The woman is still actively reproducing though and can opt to not complete her role, if she wants. The bombs go off in 5 minutes, she can choose not to detonate them.
/r/PurplePillDebate20/12/24 06:51 PM

No they can't, a woman can abort or she can use safe haven laws after the child is born. Safe haven laws aren't gender specific my dude, you can drop off your baby at a safe haven as a man too. No, because women can abort if they simply don't want to be parents, They can't reproduce and not be parents though, not anymore than men can anyway (safe haven laws, adoption etc all apply for men as well). If you don't want to be a parent, don't reproduce. That's what women who get abortions do, they do…
/r/PurplePillDebate20/12/24 06:33 PM

they can force a man to carry out parental responsibilities They can force women to carry out parental responsibilities, if she has carried out her role in reproduction then the father can force her to pay child support on the child even if she doesn't want it. There is no gendered language in the child support laws. So what you're saying is that when there is a method in which both can have a choice We have a system where both parties have a choice, they chose whether or not they want to comple…
/r/PurplePillDebate20/12/24 05:38 PM

That's your argument, and you're telling men they can't do the same They can do the same, though. No one can force a man to carry out his reproductive role (egg fertilization) to completion. Not legally, anyway.

I don't think so, women's standards drop if they feel pressured to find a husband but not across the board. I think they are more tolerant of boring men for example, but are still wise enough to avoid abusive men better than when they were younger. In general I think they are dating with more deliberation rather than simply working off feelings, which makes them less vulnerable to emotional manipulation and more open to dorks who don't make them feel much but are "safer".

Any action that makes it so you don't complete your role in reproduction, which is fertilizing the egg.

They both have exactly one "opt out" (if you want to call it that), and that is to not complete their role in the reproductive process. Same way if I plant a bomb in time square and someone else detonates it I can't "opt out" of charges against me because I changed mind a few minutes before detonation.

Nothing I said was in any way complicated. I can walk you through it if you really need me to.

If I fill up a water balloon and decide not to throw it at the TV, the TV is not damaged and I am not responsible for repairing the unbroken TV. You recognize the difference between these two statements?

No because she hasn't completed her role in reproduction yet. If I am actively reproducing and decide to stop, that's not me shirking responsibility. However if I try to avoid the consequences of an act that I carried out to completion, then yes I am shirking responsibility. It just depends if you have completed your role in reproduction, obviously women have different roles but we all can stop before we reach completion.

Literally none of the issues you you have are relevant to this study. They do consider "living as a couple" as a variable, table 1, it's less correlated than marriage.

Firstly, before feminism men and women both married young, men were not waiting until they were in their 30s to get married. Not in the US, atleast.

I agree I just think the only way you will ever see men stop suicide swiping is to address the reason they are suicide swiping in the first place. Which is a lack of matches.

I don't think anyone's getting a dopamine hit swiping 500 times and getting 5 matches.

You can pretend to be interested in things you're not interested in, you can fake laugh at jokes you don't find funny, you can dress in styles you don't like, you can lie about your background and pretend to be from somewhere you're not etc. As long as you aren't intellectually disabled you can understand what people mean by "be yourself".

I disagree, because those people could still find fulfillment and happiness inside a committed relationship even if they lower their expectations of sex. I think a lack of sexual compatibility will result in shitty relationship 80 or 90% of the time. I'd say there are needs and wants in a relationship, and sexual compatibility is a need. Especially if the reason for the lack of sex isn't an issue with sex drive, it's that your partner just doesn't find you attractive, that is doomed 100% of the …

There are limits to what anyone can expect, and age is a limiter. But nothing is a bigger limiter than unrealistic expectations of a partner. The issue isn't how realistic the expectations are, it's how reasonable they are. It's pretty reasonable to want a partner who finds you attractive, if that isn't realistic for you for whatever reason then you're better off not dating. but I've learned that many women have social or cultural inhibitions and many simply don't care about sex much at all.

Couple of reasons: Groups of people tend to create their own jargon/slang for things, TRP creates all sorts of slang for concepts, e.g. "hamstering" is basically just "rationalizing". part of TRP is viewing relationships through an economic lens, so using the word "value" is directly is drawing a comparison to how a product might be valued in a particular market vs how a man might be valued in a "dating market".

You can’t be like “I’m not HVM” but I’m high value. Yeah you can do it with other people, like saying "x person is not conventionally attractive but I think they are hot".

Simply dating someone outside of your country doesn't make you a "passport bro", that's not what the term means. It's specifically western men seeking out non western women because of their beliefs about the quality of western women. If you don't understand the term don't debate it, google is free.

I think you are overestimating the effects of those things. To put numbers to this, Palestine (West Bank and Gaza) ranks 46/191 (in the top 25% of countries) for % of population between 0 and 14. In terms of fertility they are 46/203 (top 23%). That tracks, high fertility = high child population.

Life expectancy in Gaza is 75.7 years. West bank has no blockade and though there is some settler violence, we don't have larger operations (protective edge, cast lead, swords of iron etc). West bank has a life expectancy of 76.6 years so we can reasonably estimate that the blockade and violence shaves off about 0.9 years on average.

What if the person I want to be is a person who is in a relationship? If that's what makes you happiest go for it. I think the issue is a lot of people over value relationships when they are on the outside looking in.

Way easier to fix your looks then fix your personality ime. There's also a feedback loop where the more conscientious you are the easier it is to make lasting changes to your personality. I'm not sure someone who is very unconscientious is going to have much success changing their personality, they could do so in theory but I don't think they have the drive to do it. That's my personal theory though. In studies I've seen a long time ago, personality was very stable over time for everyone iirc.

They are assuming a lack of education, intelligence and agency solely based on their race and country. The reason they think this is that every example of these types of relationships they have seen in both their personal lives and in media have had huge education and financial imbalances.

To be clear, the mother doesn't need to tell the father about the kid for a father to claim paternity. He just needs to know about it, could be as simple as checking her social media, or talking to a mutual friend or her parents. He just needs to put in the bare minimum effort to know he has a kid. You can also probably contest paternity after the child has been adopted out, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. If a man doesn't even know about the kids he created that's his own fault. If he …

It's a woman's rights Firstly, there isn't really a difference in rights because a man can just submit an acknowledgement of paternity and get on the birth certificate. If he doesn't care enough to even know he has a kid on the way, that's on him. The family court can't keep track of his seed for him, that's an unrealistic expectation. Secondly, I'm willing to bet most men see the fact that they can be "left off" of the birth certificate as more of a privelege than a disadvantage. It enables mot…

We believe a woman should be able to have as much sex as she wants and not have to be burdened with a child until she chooses to take that responsibility Yeah, and if she completes her role in the reproductive process she is shit out of luck, just like men.

according to who? Biology? I'm just saying that while it's true she could have been abstinent, she could also have an abortion.

I agree that "he should have worn condom" is the same argument as "she should have used protection", hence I support the idea of paper abortions as long as they protect both parties. It's not really the same argument because men and women have different roles in reproduction. It's more important for a man who doesn't want to reproduce to wear a condom than it is for a woman to practice abstinence because she can abort if she doesn't want to reproduce. hence I support the idea of paper abortions …

It's a pretty transient stage in life. I think it's good not to rush settling down, date different kinds of people as you figure out what you're in to.

Being pro-choice is about creating the child in the first place. You can not have reproduced and still raise a child. You can reproduce and not raise the child (e.g. adoption). Reproductive rights and parental rights are different things. Nobody can force a man to reproduce, we have our role in the process and we can decide whether or not we want to complete it. If we engage in risky behaviours that may cause us to complete our role we are at fault for that, we had the choice to not engage in th…

It's not a double standard unless she is dating shy women but ignoring shy men or something. It's also not hypocritical either, since she isn't making a moral judgement against shy men. She is just stating she wants her boyfriend to not be shy, the same way she wants her doctor to have a medical license even if she doesn't have a medical license. The standard is attached to the role, if she isn't dating herself she doesn't need to meet the standard, she needs to meet her boyfriends' standards.

Another guy might be attractive to 15% of women but most of the women who liked the second guy do not like the first guy (maybe only 5% of women like the first guy and the second guy simultaneously) despite the first guy having more widespread appeal overall.

Another interesting thing from this pure survey is that 19% of people have backed out of sex after seeing their partners body due to it's size or shape. Is that surprisingly high to anyone else? I don't do casual sex but it feels like it would be really mean to dip because their body is ugly. Overall 22% of women have left after their partner gets naked and 36% of men have. In the gender break down question they don't state the reason (so it could be for other reasons then their body shape) but …

I guess there are different types of inhibitions but this is pretty low inhib behaviour. Ussually if you are high inhib you will avoid putting out embarrassing information so freely like that, low inhib people are more impulsive and will speak without thinking about how it makes them look. The biggest issue with high inhib people is that they are boring, but inhibitions are actually good in a lot of cases. Medium inhib is always the best.

I'd think it's weird sure, I think using strokers is weird (though not as weird) too but nothing wrong with being weird. If you're just saying it's weirder than fine, I thought you were saying it's more objectifying or something.

There a differences (cost, size, etc), I don't get why the differences matter. I see a lot of complaints about how they are objectifying or reflect how the buyer views women as objects but I don't really understand that. It's not a replacement for a woman, it's used like a sex toy where you take it out, use it, clean it, put it back. I'm not sure why using one would be an issue but using the regular sex toys would not be. My best guess is that it's just a vibe thing where it looks too close to a…

Why would the messaging of a conservative tabloid be indicative of how feminists would want to approach this topic? What is this if not just trying to damage boys mental health? It's shocking to sell papers to the paper's conservative audience. They've presumed their audience will be opposed to the DV lessons, so this cover will upset them and motivate them to learn more. It obviously left an impression on you if you linked it when it's a month old, it must have sold a lot of papers.

You should still care what women think, specifically the women you approach. You should be able to tell if you're making people uncomfortable, annoyed, etc and adjust your behaviour accordingly. Letting her "worry about how to react is" fine unless you're getting the same negative reaction consistently, at that point you're just being an ass.

If she's finding a boyfriend within 2 months he's deleting his app as well. This isn't causing the skewed gender ratio. The question is, why are there less women on the app? And the answer must be because it's not better than the alternatives, but for men it is better than the alternatives.

men can only get a maximum amount of likes per day, once that amount of likes has been reached, they are invisible until next day But then the best men would be invisible to most women. Women are going to think the men on this app are lower quality than on other apps that don't do this. Therefore even less women will use this app when OLD is already very imbalanced.

There are ways you can approach women that are more likely to make her uncomfortable and ways that are less likely. You don't need to abandon approaching completely if you don't want to, just don't be a douche about it. Can't trust a woman's advice on women because they don't actually know how to attract women. They aren't telling you this because they think not approaching will get you laid more lol.

I'm not sure since I don't have them myself. Generally polarizing stuff is good as long as you're being genuine with it. Having a smaller pool that is more compatible with you is better than a larger pool that is more random. But I'm not sure how polarizing tattoos even are nowadays. I just know that women with tattoos strongly prefer men with tattoos, especially if she has a lot, just from personal experience.

"Higher quality" is subjective, you'll attract different women depending on the types, amounts and style of the tattoos. If you like women with lots of tattoos, having lots of tattoos yourself is going to help.

Their point is that the majority of that 18.8% are have a gap betweem 6 and 9 years, which makes the probablity that they are both in the under 30 cohort greater. Even then though it's misleading since the majority of young women aren't married, and older couples tend to have larger age gaps, the actual % of young women with a 6+ year age gap is going to be lower than this.

If that's true then the problem isn't actually the slacking, it's whatever is causing the slacking. It's like frequency of sex, its going to be highest early in the marriage and will drop off if the marriage is headed to divorce, but that doesn't mean the divorce was caused by lack of sex. There's probably some underlying issue that made sex drop off, just like there's probably some underlying issue that made one partner stop caring enough to put the work in.

They are able to find a partner, they would just need to lower their standards to the point where they are competitive with a woman simply being alone. If a dude adds so little a woman's life she would rather just get a cat, and she adds enough to his that he is actively pursuing her, it seems there's a mismatch in value.

This means that he is getting a bigger apartment, he is moving from a studio he had when he was single to a 1 bedroom in a relationship. He could pay 75% of the rent for the 1 bedroom and still save money relative to what he was paying before (100% of a studio).

Sex for the first time could be a few weeks and several dates after meeting her or 1 day after meeting her. Same day/night you met someone and then asking "what are we" just seems weird. Unless the intention is to ask "was this just a ONS or are you interested in going on a date with me" but "what are we" a weird way to phrase that question. Usually the "what are we" question is from a FWB or someone you're dating.

I'm not from the US but let's use some data from here. In NY average cost of a studio apartment is like 3500, 1 bedroom apartment is like 4000, a 2 bedroom is like 4500. You're probably going to be in a 1 bedroom with your partner anyway, assuming you move up from a studio that's like 15% increase in rent. If you're paying 75% of the rent of a 1 bedroom (3000$) you're still paying less than 100% of the rent of a studio apartment (3500$). A 2 bedroom with a room mate would be paying 2250 (50% of …

That works if the 2 persons contribute equally, otherwise one person is getting taken advantage off. You aren't being taken advantage of if you're life is better off with that person. Paying 50-50 doesn't necessarily mean it's "fair" either. If someone for example has a huge inheritance and just does 50% of the house work and doesn't do a job that wouldn't be "fair" to me. I acknowledge there is a line and you can be getting taken advantage of but strict 50-50 is not the line. Yes, thats why you…

Stop thinking in terms of "mine" and "yours" and start thinking in terms of "our". Obviously you shouldnt be doing 90% of the work professionally and domestically but the goal should be to shoulder the load together. It's not a bad deal because you're more than just the sum of your parts. For example, getting a bigger apartment for two people won't double your rent, so you still end up saving money even if you are paying more than half the rent. It's more worth while to look for someone who you …

decisions without putting emotions into consideration, just make whatever is objectively the best decision for you. The "objectively best decision" will factor in the feelings/emotions of yourself and others.

In general I just assume I'm paying, I'm not going to ask for seperate bills or something. But if a woman offers to split I'm not going to decline though, there's no sense in "treating" someone who doesn't want to be treated, it just seems like it's more for me than her at that point.

I see pros and cons to both, if you split no one is worried about running up the bill or anything and you don't feel like you owe them something.

Training is the smaller component of losing weight, you cant outrun the fork. Reality is, if consuming less calories were easy then everyone would be thin. Like you said, people like easy things, and no one really wants to be obese. I don't think we'll see significant population level weight loss without weight-loss drugs (e.g. semaglutide) becoming common place. Taking a pill that makes it so you feel full all the time, that's what "easy" looks like.

Gay men are higher maintenance than straight men in pretty much every way, straight women are more high maintenance than gay women on average. You get a greater return on investment by putting effort into your appearance if you are trying to attract a man, because men care more about looks generally.

It's hard to compare since the main differences are stylistic and weight. 90s and 80s styles just look garbage to me. Like if Brad Pitt were dressed like this today he'd look like trash. I could buy that being more wrinkly allowed them to pull off more mature styles which appeal to older women though, that's probably the case.

Never understood this perspective. What physically changes between a twenty year old man and late 30s/early 40s man that makes him more attractive? Are crows feet and a receeding hairline that much more attractive? Personally, the only reason I look better now than I did in my early 20s is because I put more money and effort into my appearance now. But most men don't even do that, they often put less effort in as they age and let themselves go. So what is it, forehead wrinkles and smile lines?

The top comment explains it how it changes things. It's just conjecture, but I'll accept it for the sake argument. She didn't change gender presentation and stay within the LGBT community, That's my point, she didn't just change her gender presentation.

The law is written so that you won't get in trouble for having sex with other teens while you're a teenager. Otherwise we would run into the problem you're talking about with the existing laws, since age of consent is like 18 in most places. Most people lose their virginity before 18.

The idea isn't to become so delusional you think every woman you want to sleep with is going to sleep with you. You can be confident and accept/expect that most dates don't go anywhere. Women are attracted to men who are self-confident, who confident in themselves, you don't necessarily need to confident that a particular date is going to work out.

No, you have a lowered fear of failure. That in no way increases your confidence in believing it will work.

Confidence isn't as related to success as you seem to think it is. A lot of guys have 0 success in all areas of life but still somehow think they are the shit.

If a woman tried to give up a kid you fathered you can prevent her from doing so. It just rarely happens that the father wants to be a single parent since they aren't as attached to the newborn as a mother would be. A woman can NOT be a parent against her will. A man can and many are, forced by institutions and women. A wo…

Terminate the pregnancy. Then there is no child, there never was. She never completed her role in the reproductive process, she decided not to go through with the reproduction. The man did complete his role, he did decide to go through with it. He may change his mind after but you cant change the flour once the cake is baked. It's like if you planted a bomb and someone else detonated it, even if you changed your mind after planting you are still accountable for your actions if the detonator deci…

Sure, I just disagree with the framing that the reason the guy is not paying the whole bill is because he doesn't like her enough or doesn't think she's a 10 or something. That's not necessarily the case is my point.

If a woman offers to pay half, I assume she has a reason for doing so. Maybe she doesn't want to feel like a burden or feel like she "owes" me or something. At end of the day it's just a bill, it doesn't matter to me who pays it. It's fine if they are trying to filter out men who share my view on this, but to be clear there are men who are 100% interested and serious about a woman, who are not broke who will accept splitting a bill if it's offered.

They aren't, it's pretty obvious when you consider gender roles in dating/relationships. Having a "bad" personality trait is one thing, having a "bad" personality trait that also conflicts with your gender role is another. Your perspective is warped by your gender and sexual orientation. Everyone is biased, including you. There is no gender or sexual orientation that gives you an objective perspective. That's why I don't base my opinions solely off of my own experiences.

Well firstly being feminine isnt an emotional health issue. For the others it would depend how shy submissive or gloomy and clingy they are. But the bar is a lower for women here, same way men can get away with having negative masculine traits a bit more than women can. For example, being shy can be endearing if it's not too much, especially if you're a woman. If you cant leave the house it's an issue regardless though obviously.

If they are a person who regularly wears revealing clothes then whenever they take a picture of themselves they will probably be in revealing clothes. Like if they wear bikinis and go to a beach then they will be in a bikini in their pictures at the beach. They choose to wear those clothes because they like that aesthetic, they like to look like that. You will know what they like to look like before you date them.

You understand you can be in the top 2/3 at one point and bottom 1/3 at another point in time right?

He clearly wasn't factoring in his time in his relationship and FWB into his estimate for how often he has sex per year. Probably because the question asked what it it's like for the average man in the dating world so he probably interpreted the question to be for a man who is actively dating. You can't compare these numbers, it doesn't tell us anything meaningful.

He could still be average, he's just single right now. The average guy isn't sleeping with a new woman every week, sex frequency in and out of relationships are going to be way different. I imagine when he was in that 5 year relationship he mentioned he was having sex more than once a week. I guess we would need to know how long he's been single for.

Do you have a post where older women are complaining about what younger women are doing? Usually it's just a warning like "don't date who are much older than you" or "age gaps in relationships are gross", equivalent might be men saying not to date single moms. I don't think I've ever seen a post on here where older women are complaining that younger women are taking all their men or something lol.

Would you deny them that period of growth and discovery? Are the women at that age losing something permanently from their poor choices? All she wants to do is warn young women about older guys, they can choose whether or not they want to take her advice from there.

Right, prefer doesn't mean "excludes men outside their age" I don't know what % of women exclude men who are significantly older than them. I don't think I've ever seen anyone argue that most women exclude them, just that older men are usually uncompetitive which is why age gaps in relationships are fairly rare. So saying "young women don't like older men" is categorically wrong. When someone says "women don't like short men" do you interpret that to mean no women would ever date a short man? It…

I choose that study mostly because it wasn't behind a pay wall a few weeks ago when I found it, but as you can see in the abstract: Consistent with previous findings, women preferred partners of their own age, regardless of their own age and regardless of the level of relationship involvement.

I'm not sure if age gaps are more abusive but all the data I have seen points to women in general preferring men around their own age, just a bit older. e.g. "The present data suggest that women's partner preferences follow a simple rule: they prefer men around their own age, with a range from slightly younger to slightly older" Then there was that ok cupid survey: Men, regardless of their age, tend to say women in their early 20s look best, while women are most attracted to men their own age.

I would stand by adding those three but for the sake of argument, we can remove them in which case it's like 6.81 hr/day for men vs 6.67 hr/day for women, so still only a 10 minute difference approximately.

I believe so yes, if you are looking for just married couples and look at those same 6 categories you get 7.84 hr/d for women and 7.68 hr/d for men.

This puts women off, If it's so off putting that she doesn't want a second date it's probably making her uncomfortable which is preventing her from having fun on the date. Even if it's just initially, for example I used to be shy and awkward, that made for uncomfortable and unfun on first dates, even if people I knew well could have fun around me.

These traits aren't sexy in and of themselves. However, appearing to not have these traits can fuck up your chances with a woman. Anyone with a modicum of social awareness knows that acting like a dick to people is going to make people avoid you.

Those traits are good for long term relationships, they will not make you invisible sexually. If you are confident, assertive, charismatic, funny, and you look good you are going to succeed with women regardless. Appearing to not have these traits can also fuck it up for you, which is why even people who are assholes aren't going to be assholes to their dates on the first date. They will be on their best behaviour.

Probably correlated with other traits that are desirable. It's like how guys here used to say women like narcissists, but if you dig into it it's more that narcissists are perceived as highly confident and competent when you first meet them, which is attractive.

It depends how you meet the woman I think. Like you said, the social life is important part, if you aren't social you will give off serial killer vibes.

Yeah I think the issue is more people using tech in lieu of social interactions rather than not being able to interact due to tech. Like if you work from home you never have to interact with anyone, everything can be shipped to your door and you never have to leave. There is nothing that forces you out of your comfort zone so it's probably more difficult to do it. It's like trying to stop drinking while surrounded by alcohol and alcoholics, if the comfort is right there its harder to resist it. …

I can see saying "I haven't had much luck" in a nonchalant or even playful way in some contexts, but if it's coming across as "woe as me" (like OP does) it's always going to be a bad look. It doesn't really matter what your actions are, if when you talk you seem like a whiny non-agent (I don't remember the proper term for this) in your own life you're going to be insufferable. I would avoid talking about any sort of major insecurity with a romantic partner especially when you've just started dat…

A credit card isn't a relationship, bffr. My point is that if you owe something, it doesn't matter if you feel like you owe it or not. All that matters is whether or not an obligation pay or provide something exists. Do you disagree with that statement? Or in your mind, do you only ever owe something to someone if you feel like owing them?

It doesn't matter how you feel about it, the obligation exists whether you want it to or not. Just like if I don't feel like I owe the credit card company 200$ doesn't mean I don't owe the credit card company 200$. There's a legal obligation therefore I owe it.

I certainly don't feel obligated to commit to my partner. You should feel a moral obligation not to lie and betray people, that's like being a good person 101. If you commit to a closed relationship you owe it to that person to stay loyal. Because that's what was agreed upon.

The issue is your phrasing and (likely) the context in which you say it. Nobody cares about your preferance so simply volunteering this information is always seen as a dig against those people.

>"Chemistry" just means being attracted to the non physical parts of a person. Chemistry implies some kind of unique compatibility with a person, that your personality suits their tastes. I don't think it's that unique, most women are into the same kinds of traits. The aesthetics are mostly what's different. The reverse is especially true, that there are traits pretty much universally disliked. As a result, I think you can make fairly objective statements about someones lack of attractiveness, e…

Can you tell when a woman is popular with men vs one who wouldn't be? Maybe it's a gender thing, but I find it pretty easy to determine if a guy is going to be popular with women just from a few conversations.

There's a checklist even if you don't do the introspection needed to know what's on the list. It's not as if it's random, it's not even really that unique to the person either. Most women are attracted to confidence and witt for example, it's not like they are checking off the boxes consciously but if the boxes are checked they will be smiling and having a good time throughout the date.

In order for the "paper cuts" to offset the murder and SA rates you would need to see significantly more "paper cuts" inflicted by women on to men than the reverse. We might not know the amount of "paper cuts" but there is no reason to believe women inflict more of them than men. If you're just saying "it's possible" then it's also possible murder and SA rates are being outright fabricated by a feminist gestapo. We have no reason to believe that though.

If your examples of "paper cuts" are women leading a man on then I think there are just as many men inflicting "paper cuts" to women on top of the major things.

You can build insurance into the trade. So in the terms of the contract "till death do us part, in sickness and in health" means if I get sick I can no longer do X you will pick up the slack for a a while or forever and I will work on adapting to my new situation and making myself useful. We trade insurance to each other. Those 1 in 6 guys are breaking the contract, which is the issue, not the transactional nature of the relationship.

A relationship is with a person that supports you through life, it’s a partnership. A partnership is a transaction, I do X so you can do Y and together we will both have XY.

Once they've paid their debt to society that should be that. If someone agrees with your outlook here they will date someone with a criminal record even if they know about it.

It just depends on the person and if they are getting what they want.

As a result, people date with purpose and a lot more pragmatically. You don't have the luxury of just waiting to fall in love with someone by chance. It still happens, but it is rarer. The way you and your partner got together sounds like a much more "human" way to get together, I think everyo…

In our example the woman is claiming value from the man on account of additional burden. No he is paying for his offspring whom he was responsible for creating. If the planting of the bomb is moral, then the planter is not responsible for subsequent immoral actions so your example doesn't work either. It's not immoral in and of itself, obviously it's immoral if it's in service of a greater plot to kill people. I'm just saying you can't back out of the plot after you've already done your part. Yo…

That shows contribution to creation, which is distinct to moral It's about responsibility, who is responsible for manufacturing the weapon? The last person on the assembly line or everyone who willingly and knowingly participated in the assembly line, together? It seems obvious it would be the latter to me. You seem to be suggesting it would be the former because the last guy could have decided to throw the incomplete weapon in the trash undoing the work of those who preceded. planting of a bomb…

Women pay for children they don't want all the time. You can't just stop feeding your 5 year old because you decide after the fact you no longer want to be responsible for your decisions. Men and women have different roles in reproduction, but once you have completed your role you are on the hook for the result. That's true for both men and women. You make your decision and live with it. What you want is for men to be able to reproduce without having to pay for their offspring, that would be som…

Men don't create children Yes they do, we are a sexual species and it requires two parties to create a child. To say men create children is to say gun manufacturers kill people This would be more like saying the only one who manufactures guns is the guy who puts it in the box since that's the last step of the process. If I plant a bomb and someone else detonates it I am still at fault as well as the detonator, even if I change my mind after planting it.

Or, put another way, autonomous women making independent decisions about their lives should not expect men to finance their choice. He isn't financing a decision she made. He is financing a decision he made himself. If you choose to fulfill your role in reproduction, you are on the hook for the consequences of that decision. This is true for men and women.

and this age gap discourse is a lashing out by women who missed the boat If I asked them they would probably tell me the age gap thing is a revenge fantasy for men who struggled to date their similarly aged peers in their 20s.

I could ask them, according to this survey the number is about 30% of women have dated someone 10 years older. (20% of men have dated a woman 10 years older). This doesn't have a breakdown by age though so there could be a lot of 30 year olds dating 40 year olds which I find more common. Either way it's a minority. Ignore their words.

Men have more suitors in their 30s but those suitors are women in their 30s whom were not chosen in their 20s. You also lose out on the majority of young women who don't want a large age gap. Also on "capitalizing" on a woman's peak, marriage in your early 20s is prone to failure.

I've seen promiscuous women make the same arguments you are here, that they have never had a problem dating, men don't even ask, that men even prefer it because they are more experienced etc etc. At the end of the day, it's probably not hard for a 30 year old man to get what he wants in the dating market IF he has his shit together.

The issue with the concept of "hypergamy" is that it framed as women trying to "date up" or be with someone better than themselves. Even in this post you talk about "hypergamy" is a bad or negative thing, it's not. The reality is everyone seeks the best partner they can get, we just value different things. If men don't value a woman's earnings as much as a woman values how much a man makes, they will tend to be with men who make more than them. Same way men value youth more than women do, so men…

This isn't even remotely true, even on this sub most guys who complain about being perpetually single are constantly asking where they can go to meet women.

Isn't it the case that relationships with larger age gaps are more likely to end in divorce? I don't really see what the advantage is unless you're going for a sugar baby type relationship. I'm not against the concept in principle, if a woman meets a good guy whose older she should go for it. To specifically target older men seems odd to me, though. Most older single people are single for a reason, and if you marry a young man he will be old eventually (hopefully).

Really, you really think every fat guy with down syndrome is married? No, and there are women with down syndrome who can't get married either.

The problem with “be yourself” is that some selves are better prepared for the world than others Why is that a problem? So you’re admitting that people don’t give that advice to the people in their lives right? Instead they tell them where to meet people without being more attractive. What? My point is you would get personalized advice not that they would give you the same advice they gave me. Everyone has different issues in dating. If a lot of women are telling you to try and be nicer maybe th…

To my knowledge this is not true, women are generally happier when married than when they were single. This is a decent article on it since it discusses a study that controls for the obvious question "are happier people more likely to marry".

I wouldn't describe it as jumping through hoops, just earning and maintaining their sexual interest. A woman has to earn and maintain my sexual interest as well. Even if it's a woman you just met you will have to earn her sexual interest, whether it's through effort you put into your appearance or effort you put into your game. This is just part of life. The issue is men think once it's earned it never goes away, that's wrong it needs to be maintained.

Because sexual interest wanes with complacency. Especially if she ends up doing the majority of the child rearing and domestic work. If you go on like 3 dates a year only on special occasions and there never any surprises, she is going to start to feel like it's not a romantic relationship but a co-parenting arrangement. If you take it further and you don't cook and clean regularly or you never watch the kids, then she begins to feel like it's not even co-parenting but rather a mother-son relati…

You're not "supposed" to do anything but maintaining sexual interest over a long term relationship necessarily takes some effort. If you are a person who values sex and wants to marry then you should be prepared to put in this effort, if not then you don't need to.

A lot of times there's a underlying reason why she's never in the mood. If you can identify the reason and fix the issue you can bring the spark back sometimes. A lot of times it's too late though, thats why you need to be ahead of the curve and always thinking about what you can do to make the relationship more romantic, exciting etc. Stuff like making sure she isn't over worked and under appreciated can go a long way.

The analogy implies that a woman is wrong to have sex with many men but it's not wrong when a man does it, that's the issue. A woman can have sex any time she wants. It will literally take her 5 minutes to find someone. So it is not a sign of high value when a woman has a high body count. This may not be a sign of high value but it's not a sign of low value either. It's super easy to brush your teeth in the morning, it doesn't deserve praise. But it also doesn't deserve condemnation.

How is that equivalent if they are both heterosexual? It's someone you don't want touching you sexually, sexual orientation is just what gender sexually turns you on. A heterosexual man getting spanked by a man is no different than a woman getting spanked by a man who she is not sexually attracted to. way less prude This has nothing to do with being prude. You're not a prude for not wanting random dudes to touch you sexually, especially if you're dating someone lol.

Women don't normally enjoy being sexually harassed, that's a very abnormal position. It's also very understandable a woman wouldn't want to be spanked by a man who holds power over her. Would you enjoy it if your boss was a aggressive gay dude spanking you regularily? It's not about being uptight, people just don't want to be sexual with everyone. Just because you want to touch people in a sexual manner doesn't mean they have to let you touch them or else they aren't "fun".

Though women have varried interests the pretty boy look is harder to pull off and definitely higher effort. It's also carries higher risk since it's not the norm for men to try to look that way, so if you fail to pull it off it'll look worse then failing the masculine look.

Yeah this brings us back to the first comment. Some people hold the opinion that what is most popular (i.e. what would do well in a poll) is objectively better than what is less popular. For example that hip-hop is objectively better than rock or classical music because it gets more clicks. That's a fair interpretation but I disagree with it. And a lot of people do, it's not that strange or weird as you have said, it's just a difference of opinion.

presumably funny outside of his race jokes Maybe he would be, but 90% of his jokes are observational jokes about race, ethnicity and nationality. So if you don't like racial jokes you aren't going to find him funny. That's all she's saying, her jokes are mostly morbid so if you don't like morbid jokes you won't find her funny. 'if you dont like race humour you won't find me funny' If you don't like racial humour you won't find Russel Peters funny. I don't see the difference.

She didn't say "If you aren't me, you won't find me funny." She said "if you don't like morbid humour, you won't find me funny". You could make the same statement about real comedians. For example if you don't like race jokes you probably won't find Russel Peters funny. She's just saying she appeals to people who like morbid humour. Whether you can consider her "funny" if most people don't like that style of humour is debatable. But I don't think it's a weird stance

Difference is that if you have 0 social skills you aren't going to be in a position to meet people or have casual sex to begin with. Even in your case I would bet if you were super awkward and weird about it she wouldn't have had sex with you, even without being able to talk your way out of it.

I imagine a lot of these men have 99% male friend groups who primarily play video games together to hang out. I'd have to read more on it but from what I understand the atomization of society due to online socialization and parasocial relationships is affecting men more than women. I think men are lonely platonically as well as romantically to a large extent, but I'd don't know tbh

Well I would agree with that, I don't even think most incels are that misogynistic in person. I think we need to do a better job at establishing that having a bad personality =\= being a bad person necessarily. I think incels would be better served by therapy than plastic surgery, I got the feeling that the person I responded to disagrees maybe I'm wrong.

Also the gap isn't that much anymore. Look at what people do not what they say. Men in surveys express that they want to look better in similar proportion to women. So what? I'd probably answer the majority of those surveys in the affirmative. However if we look at statistics around eating disorders and time spent actually working on appearance and how that appearance is percieved you'll see men dont care nearly as much. So because they don't take good pictures and spend as much time as women on…

If society decides that body shaming men is just as damaging and toxic It isn't just as damaging, nor is it nearly as pervasive.

I have not met a good man over the age of 20 who is still a virgin. Depends how you define "good" right, its entirely conceivable that a person is kind and caring but is agoraphobic and never meets anyone and is therefore virgin. It's understandable that women dont want to date men with poor social skills/no friends but that doesn't necessarily mean they are "bad" people, unless you're using a different definition of "good" here.

The issue ime is no one ever "asks for it". The supply of support is there, whenever someone seeks it out they will get it. There's just rarely ever any demand for support. And it feels weird "asking for it" because nobody else ever "asks".

Because a lot of the women who feel the pain of being childless don't actually want children with just anyone, a lot would prefer no kids at all than to have kids with certain men. Society puts a lot of pressure on women to be moms, moreso than men to be dad's.

Dual mating strategy isn't wanting to be friends with some men and want to fuck others. Dual mating strategy is about two differing groups of men both of which women wanting relationships with.

So you're saying you've wanted to fuck a woman, but became good friends with her so you stopped wanting to fuck her If I decide I want to have sex with a woman I will have already decided I don't want to be "just friends". I don't immediately want to have sex with someone upon meeting them, there's more thought that goes into it than that. Just because I am viscerally attracted to a woman, the way she looks, her character and her personality, doesn't mean I'm going to decide I want a sexual rela…

This is oxymoronic. If you don't want to have sex with someone they're not sexually attractive to you. If I find my friend's mom sexually attractive, I still wouldn't want to have sex with her because it would fuck up my friendship with my friend. To skip the semantics argument, I would say just stop wanting to fuck them if you value the friendship, it's that simple. We can appreciate someones attractiveness, even if they are sexually arousing at times, and decide we don't want to pursue sex bec…

Why is it not possible to be friends with someone you're sexually attracted to? if you have a lot of feminine energy most men don't want that in friendships. Maybe most men don't prefer feminine energy in platonic relationships but it's not like we need to actively avoid it. A woman can be super feminine but still fun to chill with.

What? No the reason men say this is because they want to shift blame from themselves and the way they act around women to the intangible aspects of their appearance. They don't want to take responsibility for their lack of success around women, so they need to argue that women are strongly visual in their attraction. That they actually just have male sexuality but are just more selective. It's not true, women just have different selection criteria all together. This is why being an average looki…

A woman can unilaterally abdicate her legal responsibility to be a parent at several points throughout pregnancy and becoming a new mother, and if she decides to abort the child that the sexual partner may have wanted to be a father to, well now he’s just shit out of luck and without child without any legal avenues to protect the child from being aborted.

She can't kill a baby, she's aborting a fetus. We can argue about the legality of abortion e.g. where do the rights of the mother end and the rights of the fetus begin but this has nothing to do with legal parental surrender. Assuming a fetus is not a person, then only the mother should get a say.

She isn't, a man can choose to value the fetus if he wants. But he doesn't get a say in what a woman does with her body. Just like she doesn't get a say if he wants to pull out prior to completing his role in reproduction. If you want me to be able to prevent a woman from getting an abortion, we would need to give women the ability to prevent men from pulling out. Currently it's equal.

The reality that saying "hey" to people on dating apps doesn't work? That's all this video shows, they didn't even let her pick the pictures lmao. She just swiped on people and sent them low effort messages and, shocker, it didn't work. Everybody knows this wouldn't work, especially women, which is why I know she doesn't use dating apps.

Is anyone going to disagree with you? The issue people have is with lying not when people change their mind. Remember this is the culture that y'all(women) wanted, you asked for it and you got it. How does it feel. I don't get this, are you arguing that having the ability to change your mind is a bad thing? If there's no committment there's no committment, you can leave when you want.

If she used tinder for any reasonable amount of time it would be obvious to her that saying "hey" will get you no where. Idk maybe she uses it all the time and is just retarded or maybe a paid actress who knows.

Pick any one of the top 10 most popular papers from blackpill science subreddit and disprove it. My issue is with the use and interpretation of data not the studies themselves. For example the top study on BPS is about the discrepancy in likes between men and women on dating apps. I wouldnt dispute that this discrepancy exists. I would dispute that this study "proves hypergamy" or some shit. They can't think like a dude. Solipsism. You don't need to think like a dude to know as a woman you are g…

You bloops are pretty good at handwaving away all research papers Actually we are good at reading research papers which is why we aren't red pilled. 99% of you don't read the shit you post, it hardly ever proves what you think it does and often contradicts your own arguments. It makes sense, you get your sources from grifters on YouTube. how she thought she would have an advantage because she knows what women want. Again she doesn't even know how to use tinder, clearly. She has no advantage if s…

This was an 18 year old chick that never even used tinder before, she didn't even know how to navigate the app. She sent "hey" because she didn't understand tinder etiquette in the slightest. Put a 26 year old woman with tinder experience in there, you'll get completely different results. She would have used the lines that worked on her based on her own experience. Like most of this dudes videos he sets out to provide something for his audience to circle jerk to, he wasn't actually doing an expe…

Even if I were to accept this "just-so" story as fact it still wouldn't mean "low N" is equally disgusting as "high N". There would obviously be a greater risk of paternity fraud from a woman who is more promiscuous.

/r/PurplePillDebate15/07/21 10:25 PM

Of course not as much but whenever it does come up the most upvoted female perspectives are about wanting a man with a low N-count. Other women in the thread will say they prefer a man with a higher n-count, this is probably due to the population of women on the sub skewing towards restrictive sociosexuality but women outside of this do exist. My point is that clearly these women don't have these preferences because they want a pure virgin male because that stereotype/ideal doesn't exist for men…

I don’t gaf about “n count” at all. That’s a mostly male obsession which honestly feels like a c*pe for an intense desire for a “virgin.” Why do you think that? Obviously N-count is a function of your sociosexuality and views on sex in general. It's possible to want a woman with low N and not want a virgin woman. Infact, when asked, many women on this sub echoed that sentiment.

Again we are speaking about average people. So 30% didn’t have sex Do you believe these men to be above or below average? Additionally, all it would take to fall into that 70% is having sex one time in a year. You were claiming they couldn't get hookups or relationships, clearly they can. We have no data on how much effort they put in or how many people they were with. For all we know that 30% never even asked a woman out. All we know for certain is that average men can get relationships and hoo…

The statistics don't bear this out at all. 70% had sex in the last year according that poll from 2018, obviously they either had a hookup or a relationship. And that was from the cohort that had the least sex, the older generations did even better.

I’m above average in every way except physical attractivenesa Perhaps I wasn't clear when I said "this thread is about average people" I meant like physically average, like 4/10 to 6/10. From the OP: If a guy is at least within the average range with regards to genetic physicality Genetic physicality is the bonestructue you are refering to, the thread was about whether or not physically average men can get relationships or hookups.

I'm 4/10 with a chest wall deformity and more feminine personality. currently in grad school, don't make much money at all. Used to be really socially awkward too. It's really not that bad. You are not average. Or your personality isn't as good as you think it is. I actually think it's the latter one because people who tend to blame their problems on their circumstances instead of what they could have done differently are almost universally sucky to be around.

You think nice social guys do worse than guys who aren't social? The guy above even says it outright, the issue isn't that they're nice or easy to be around it's that they're boring.

The guys I know who have had the longest dry spells are really nice, decent, above average, friendly, social, neurotypical guys, who are just too milquetoast to succeed with women Not my experience at all, guys who are antisocial are by far the worst with women and it's not close. Most friendly social guys do just fine with women, especially if they are above average.

Oh she's chubby but not really fat imo, certainly not as big as ed. She is a single mom though. He also looks better with his new haircut but I think the only reason he is even able to date is clout.

Big Ed actually got laid though, even in the spin off he was sleeping with Liz who is American.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/07/21 08:05 PM

how can they expect a woman to think they are super hot? You are mischaracterizing their argument, they don't expect this. They are actually cautioning men against believing women who claim to find a man "super-hot" when he is not in the top 20%. They are telling men not to LTR those women, in fact do not LTR at all because women will not find you attractive in the bottom 80%. The point of debate is the what % of men are actually considered unnattractive, i.e. is 80/20 a thing or are men just la…

Most women are not this stupid, they aren't sleeping with guys significantly out of their league expecting a relationship. A lot just want to have casual sex and fwb until they reach an age where they want to settle down. Men do this too, it's completely normal and even logical given the transience of young adult life. Maybe your career goals will take you to the other side of the country, who knows when you're 21.

I'm not sure I've seen what you're talking about specifically on this sub but it's fairly taboo for a woman to insult another woman's appearance. They are usually very supportive of one another outwardly. If you talk to a fat woman though, she knows lol. I would actually argue they have a better understanding of how their weight affects their smv than men do. A lot of fat guys seem to think them being "big" is a positive thing even with a high body fat %. If anything women are more likely to ove…

If you have some weird non negotiable kinks or something you should just be upfront about them. Same as if you have some sort of sexual deformity or health issue. But this is true if you are having sex on the 1st date or 10th date. Anything else you just communicate and get it to work. That sounds a lot like the female strategy of dating Personally I think every dude should have sex at the pace they want to. If you want it 1st date then go for it. I just push back on the idea that not having sex…

The fact you are courting one another makes it romantic. The entire tone and mood of a date is different than just meeting up with a friend. It's flirtatious, you build sexual tension and you bond with one another as you show more vulnerability. You continually get more emotionally and physically intimate as you strengthen your relationship and increasingly integrate into each other's lives. When you meet up with a friend you're just having fun, if you go on a date you're having fun and falling …

If women didn't look better with makeup on, they wouldn't wear it. That's the point of makeup to, to alter your physical appearance. And it works, Google before and after photos, they definitely look better. Women are more visually appealing while they are wearing makeup. Trump mask doesn't make me Trump Women aren't pretending to be someone else when they wear makeup.

Physical attractiveness is all about how you look. Looking rich doesn't make you rich but looking attractive does make you physically attractive. Making yourself look better is the only way to improve your physical attractiveness. Making yourself look rich doesn't do anything to improve your wealth.

Yeah it makes her look more attractive lol. Renting a care doesn't make you any richer but wearing makeup does make you more attractive.

I disagree, it's easy to tell when a woman is wearing makeup but you can't tell if a car is a rental unless someone tells you. Makeup isn't meant to deceive you, it's meant to make her look more attractive. The equivalent of makeup is using a hair product or something, which women do too of course. Those types of things are in the same category.

You said men get all these alleged benefits and maybe you have to wait but you’ll get sex eventually I simply stated the benefits men will generally get in an LTR. Generally speaking, all these things are true. and lectured men how those are better than sex. I said those benefits are better than just sex, in my opinion. I didn't tell others what to think. You were telling men what they should want or need or what is “enough” I did no such thing, I even stated men with unrestricted sociosexuality…

You did. I didn't. I said some men are going to like being Guy A more, some are going to like being Guy B more. Men are not a monolith, we have different values, wants etc. Except…. You’re all like that. Strange, I'm a man and never dated a woman like that. My friends have pretty good girlfriends too, and my female friends are good to their men. If I can do it, you can too.
