Which ones? Not badgering you for credibility, but I'm curious as to how they got to the level of cynicism that they did.

Me? No. It's why this gender war is stupid. Perceived slights and blatant disrespect is a fuel that doesn't have an end.

The truth of it is, it's just a normal reaction. There's really no reason to go out of your way for a very pretty girl and then treat other women like they're chopped liver. It's understandable to pursue someone, but there's no real reason you treat the people around you as less important just because they're not interested.

It isn't that. It's more to the fact that women bitched about being sidelined and not getting respect or some kind of courtesy, all for the crime of not being pretty enough. Some argued that they should be treated as well as the prettier ones, but men kinda just agreed that we should at least remain somewhat friendly or neutral to women we don't find attractive. Then came to find out that women weren't gonna reciprocate that standard. If anything, they range from neutral to just straight up unfr…

Weirded out? No, I find that unlikely. Not that men can't be mean or be put off by ugly women. But I find that most of us tend to be neutral, unless we're attractes to her. Most women are fine, but people just tend to find more women than men act outwardly negatively just because the man is ugly and he said hi.

He's mostly speaking to women in general. More like a hypothetical. It's not that you yourself have done this, but there are plenty of women who outwardly express spite and contempt when men treat women prettier than her better.

I don't understand how you hold so much contempt for your fellow man. As much as I've been irked by feminism, it's not the ushering of the apocalypse. But more notably, I don't think of women collectively because of it; even though it's popular in my age group. I don't understand this weird grouping of people that somehow labels them as deficient. And I'm so far past entertaining it.

I'm not in anything. I got to this sub via movies being an absolute shit show and this same smug, condescending, and arrogant message being spread and the general audience just booing it out of the theater. There is always a small number of people who choose to ruin their lives by refusing to change. What is it that needs to change? Why are they wrong? But it’s what it always is. A small number. One. I doubt it's "always." Two. It isn't now.

That is very much a problem. Why would we continue to let something like this fester? Also, the irony is ripe: "They believe the world is never going to change, that things are always going to be awful for them. These are types of thinking errors." And in the same breath, "There will always be a section of society excluded from those (relationship) experiences." So what is it? A thinking error or are they right?

because they are unwilling to pursue long term relationships with anyone other than White women. There's no racial barrier to most men not dating women. As to which, pretty much everyone stays within their own race. White women are highlighted because they're part of the majority of the population. Many of my White male friends openly refused to date women of color seriously, saying they simply were not attracted to them and would rather stay single than date outside that preference. I can agree…

One. We're referencing the Blackpill. Not the red. Their distinctions are VERY notable. Two. Marriage has dropped. So naturally, divorce would follow. https://usafacts.org/articles/state-relationships-marriages-and-living-alone-us/ From 78.8% to 46.8% Relative to the actual married population, I'd still consider divorce relatively high. But this is the IMPORTANT point that they make. The genders are at odds with each other. Women are having open contempt for men, and men are growing in misogyny.…

In reality, most married guys are not the "moggers" that the Black Pill is constantly talking about. To it's credit. That's very much acknowledged. What they point out is that the divorce rate is high. That the satisfaction in an average marriage tends to range from below middling to barely middling. They have made these assumptions from the research, comments, and accusations of women. That the average women views the average man as not good enough. The open contempt from the women on just abou…

Because it disproves the initial claim that Western culture is biased against women's work. Because you don't have to have children and you will earn the same. Because mothers not being able to earn as much is a completely separate and distinctive issue. Unless you can explain away why someone not working should earn the same as someone who is.

Listen. If the goal is to control the world at all times so you have complete authority as to when anyone can speak to you, that's never going to be a thing. I believe all these things happen. What I don't believe is that it happens constantly; that people don't mind their own business, or that they don't ignore the people around them, that at times everyone in the public space is buried in their phone, or that they really have nothing better to do than to talk to you.

Then what exactly do you derive from the research that is there? Like are we saying there isn't any research into heightism? Workplace death rate? Or any of the other things they bring up? At this point I need to ask, are we just dismissive or in denial of any evidence that doesn't bolster your own beliefs?
/r/PurplePillDebate05/07/26 01:28 AM

But.... they're not wrong? We have measured and studied all these things, and it largely supports their claims. What do you think the research says? What claims and points do you derive from it?

For examples of widespread red pill talking points or ideas that would be easily debunked if measured. If anything, they're slowly getting research under their points. Heightism is still a thing, so is the suicide rate, the work fatality rate, the homelessness rate, the divorce rate (is tapering but people just aren't getting married), and so on.

Because it isn't real, that piece of rhetoric is said mainly for two reasons, to dog on women (which most often is undeservedly), or to get men to stop giving women so much attention finally. It's rhetoric. It doesn't hold weight.

That wasn't the point. It's that whatever reason people had, arbitrary or not, wasn't applied equally across the board. That in essence, since behaving a certain way isn't responded to in equal measures, it's not sound reasoning. Valid reasoning, just not sound. Which opens it up to discourse.
/r/PurplePillDebate26/06/26 01:34 AM

The truth can be spoken by anyone. Sure, but can I just make statements on your behalf and tell YOU what your deal is? Even if the discourse is terse. I'd rather everyone use their own voice. Women are quick to push their neurosis as truth. If you listened to them you'd think women get murdered left and right if they dare to go out at night. Agreed. It's why I say their patriarchy is a small piece. We can't say it isn't happening, but the truth is that you're more likely to die from eating too m…

I've not said women don't have issues so don't act like I did. I'm not. I'm pointing to what they put forth as their issues. I don't think it's fair to tell other people what their problems are. You can critique how far-reaching and other aspects, but I think using patriarchy can probably lead towards some middle ground.

They have limits too. Nothing is omnipotent. Things exist outside of your worldview. That's kinda the point and the blindsided to the red pill. There are so many other situations and facets of life that you're going to have a whole world that doesn't fit into structures so rigid. Same with any other ideology.
/r/PurplePillDebate09/06/26 02:09 PM

What they refer to as patriarchy doesn't exist in a vacuum. The world is too big to fit in that box. Stewardship in terms of guiding culture, customs, and civilization. How we think, how we view things, how we decide what's proper.
/r/PurplePillDebate09/06/26 02:07 PM

I'm directly addressing it. I don't think we should bury our heads in the sand. It would be wrong to say women don't have their own plight. The fact that they ignore ours doesn't mean we have to follow suit. There's no way we're going to get better that way. That being said. Their definition is too flawed to put forth change. Doesn't mean certain aspects aren't useful, but it doesn't allow a path forward that most would go down towards. What you talked of in your other comment about brotherhood …

No. That's a side benefit. The patriarchy is a very small piece of the puzzle that is human civilization. It is NOT all-encompassing as people make it out to be.

Why is that ideal? How would that be stable or consistent if everyone always did something different or unexpected?

I kinda disagree on saying that people think it's correct. It's more to the tune of "that's what it currently is." Things have shifted but not changed enough for things to progress. Young women make more money now, they're more educated, they are slowly edging out men in opportunity (average men, the top 1% is mostly left untouched; generational wealth from well educated and affluent people doesn't go away unless the economy is beyond saving).

They really would put everyone's name on there but themselves. They really would do it if it wasn't such a net loss. Just because they won't, doesn't mean we wouldn't be fools to continue to assume that they won't. If (God forbid) the draft was enacted. They're going to be selective. Most Americans are overweight.

Question. When exactly is this deemed performative? Like unless you can read minds, or you have a reliable track record of past behavior (and know he isn't changing), where exactly do we begin to tell people that "No, what you're saying and doing isn't what you actually believe." I know this is tangential. But performative gets thrown around a lot. And I don't know when we decided where anyone can just supersede someone else in their own values and beliefs. On the main topic. What differentiates…

Fair. I think the only real issue is that at the top of the repercussions (barring anything illegal), there's really nothing to fear from anyone. Oh no, this asshole gets laid a lot. You can bitch about it, but considering it's really nobody's business but his own. There's just not much you can do. Like really, what's going to happen to him? He doesn't keep a girlfriend? He'll get another.

Well for one. Pointing to it as a pretense. You're changing the premise by saying it's fake. When that's not the point. Sure there are those who are pretending. But that's not the subject of discussion. I see no reason to change it. OP even notes that it being genuine or not isn't what's being discussed.

Considering bank robbers get caught, that's arguable. Like there's very little reprocussions for the guys fucking around, hence why they keep doing it and more importantly, getting away with it. Although getting away with it might be wrong to say, I believe the collective consensus is that there's really nothing wrong with being promiscuous (which isn't really true, but we've been pushing for this so we'll go along with it). But the mishap is in what is being focused on. Like both previous comme…

I think we're past the owed stage of the conversation. Like sure. 100% true. The issue comes from when they choose the other guy when he's demonstrably worse in caring for her. Or I guess to make matters fair, he acted and did the exact same thing; he's just prettier. Which sullies perspective and usually people reframe as shallow. Especially if women are complaining that their personalities aren't being taken into account, then it's shallow and hypocritical.

True. But they get dogged online outside of their spaces. In real life, they're shunned. Until this behavior is curtailed across the board regardless of looks and status. It'll remain. Not to mention. Women have their own derogatory boot that they carry around. Until that goes, this will stay.

I skip over the pitfalls that you lean into. There's nothing to skip over onto if there isn't a ledge. This is a free fall, where, if you're lucky, you have a parachute. You are nothing more than a weak and pathetic victim at the mercy of all others. Oh, do give details since you know so much about me. Better yet, explain how you're insulated from the exploitation. Give us some answers that aren't vague and meaningless. Does that make you feel more comfortable. It never did....which is the point…

Do we not understand that exploitation is a thing? Are we under the impression that it doesn't exist? Tell me. What sense (if any) is there in working through a system that inherently doesn't benefit you? Does that make you feel empowered? We have power now? Ya feel tough? Does your agency have value and meaning now? That make you feel better?
/r/PurplePillDebate17/04/26 03:48 PM

Did we ever truly? Like the expectation was definitely there. Our bad. But the reality settles in rather quickly. That you don't ever rely on her for your happiness, but that the relationship is pretty contingent on you making HER happy.

"They're seeing that this is an extraction-based system of male exploitation." Remind me again how this is a choice when the only real options left are to either get lucky or not play the game at all. I think we're all aware enough to realize that real life isn't so horrowing, but there's enough truth there that any sane individual wouldn't throw their well-being into such a system. Fuck, women didn't like their deal and opted the fuck out of it.

I mean it's unhelpful for men specifically, for women it doesn't really affect us much, I think. Not really.

There was a hot second when the left blatantly lost the male vote and it resulted in swathes of men not voting for anyone or just blatantly switching sides (not just the US, this phenomenon was occurring in Western and First world countries globally). They kinda did a dog and pony show and there's hints of them taking into consideration their male constituents in the issues that they want to address, but that option seems to be in the toilet right now.

No judging you. It's just lending to Occam's Razor, that the simplest answers are usually the correct ones. In context with the conversation. It means that the answers that make people resentful, often are the ones that are the actual reason. You had every right to feel some type of way about the situation, but the fact that you didn't reflects well on you.

So don't question if she's ever cheated? That's unrelated to her sex history? And it's a cuck move to ask? That's a strawman? And not a loophole in your line of thinking? You should ask if she is into talking about sex she has had not just question her without her consent. That's just inorganic to how most conversations spring up between partners.

There seem to be a lot of women that outright pride themselves in doing deep levels of probing without their partners knowledge.

How can the situation be improved for all parties involved? That's the part we figure out. Naming out the problems often leads to vitriolic discourse, but at least awareness is being made. So it's not done at a complete loss. Same happens the other way around too though. Women who experience sexual harrasment are often called liars. Or that they were asking for it.

Living off the land is hard work, but it's stable, and depending on the situation you practically have no bills to pay. Chicken, rabbit, and pig farms are self-sustaining as fuck, and you can feed a family of 6 with just a garden and a good greenhouse.

I get what you're saying, but it almost feels coercive to try to curate a personal preference just because it's arbitrary.

And I'll say it again. The fact that you would rule out all that growth and development in exchange for the guy who gets you hot is still shallow. You are actively prioritizing attractiveness over character. Is it possible to find someone hot enough with good enough character? Yes.

No. It's most decidedly very shallow. Practical and understandable, but shallow nonetheless. The whole growth, learning journey, and gathering a good influence of friends and family meant absolutely nothing just because he wasn't tall enough (or whatever attractive standard it is you have).

If becoming invisible is a relief for many women, then the context of them experiecing misogyny in a misogynistic society matters to define their invisibleness as positive rather than negative.

It's not a mischaracterization. He's pointing out a fallacy. How do incels abuse women when they don't even have much experience, time, or opportunity to encounter them? At best an incel can spew hatred online. But the real abuse that women report and the ones most people are concerned with are the ones in real life. Hence her point doesn't make much sense since incels aren't even in these women's lives to conduct any sort of abuse.

I would disagree in saying it's a leap in logic. Abundance of something often leads to most people not valuing it. While scarcity is the exact opposite. This logic applies across many areas and fields and I don't quite see how it wouldn't apply here. When you're rich, 10$ is nothing to you; if you're poor, 10$ could mean a lot. In developed countries, clean water is taken for granted; in poor countries, it's life or death. A stay at home parent can be underappreciated by their child; a parent th…

That's not the just world fallacy. A just world fallacy would be that all the good-looking men are good and all the bad-looking men are bad. You've switched it. What you're describing is a mean-spirited presumption that is highly biased. In other words, a stereotype. Which can be commonly true, but not definitive. That being said your argument is a bit blindsided in its implications. It implies that both of these men have a 50/50 shot of being the perpetrator. They don't. Good-looking men have f…

This implies that the game was changing fairly with the possibility for anyone to adapt to it. Honestly, it's the repercussions and consequences that I'm curious about.

Many doctors actually work under 40 hours a week and many nurses just work 3 shifts per week if averaged out. How? I'm genuinely asking. How?

Single moms have plenty of options. I don't think that's what was being contested. Rather the type of options and how desirable they are is what we're questioning.

I mean. What is the bar that you're measuring "successful". Like, can a good-looking small business owner who has a retirement plan already set up, marry a woman in her 30s with kids? Yeah, sure. But the problem is that there are plenty of good-looking women in their 30s and younger who have no kids and would want him, which begs the question as to what would make it likely that he would choose the single mom. Why would a single mom be desirable to a successful good-looking man that has options?…

Correct if a women is hot then nothing else about her will matter she will always have a lot of options at any age. Incorrect. This assumes that all hot women are the same. Get treated the same.

It's not that. It's that the real truth is that a single mom is not really a desired first choice for just about anybody. More often than not, concessions must be made.

The goal would be to outlaw these things if they haven't already (specifically referring to child-arranged marriages here), change social norms to make them less prevalent, and socially and legally punish these actions more frequently than they already do. We have some clear benchmarks for those.

/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 03:26 PM

I do. I didn't make this statement out of hypocrisy.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 03:07 PM

So if education isn't the problem and men are still out earning women and still making up the majority of top positions what's your actual argument? Just because education can't guarantee you wealth to the point of financial freedom doesn't mean it shouldn't be advocated and strived for. Countries with free higher education have the same split of slightly more women graduating from uni. What's your argument? The original point is that men have lower college acceptance rates. Probably bigger drop…
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 02:13 PM

Why are men still out earning women then? For a whole host of reasons. Education is the least among them. Honestly, this is probably where the whole college is a scam came from. People didn't see an equal return on their investment in higher education. Why are men still overly represented in STEM and top level positions? A whole host of reasons, but from a practical standpoint. STEM is hard to get into in general and other degrees will get you paid pretty decently that you could go for. What do …
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 02:02 PM

And men could probably be helping them. And then in turn they help men. Seems like a good way to just get more help across the board, which is what seems to be needed.

Adults are expected to do what's right Yeah......that tracks.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:49 PM

You're inferring a rate to equate a statement that doesn't make sense. And I explained to you how and why. Here let me give you one more. Women can be attributed to a higher infant mortality rate than men. Now is it because women, in general, are unfit parents, or is it because they're around children more often?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:48 PM

Adults are expected to do what's right without being told or rewarded.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:41 PM

Nobody is really doing all that fine. Across the board, we could all use some help.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:41 PM

That statistic is rather misleading. There are more male surgeons so chances are higher for them to be in the room when mistakes are made. Across the board women and men are the same in terms of intelligence. This is like saying there are bigger workplace death rates in America than in England for the sheer fact that there are far more amounts of dangerous work in the U.S.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:40 PM

So when IS achievable equality made? Where's the benchmark? And what happens to the movement after?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:33 PM

Off the top of my head? Access to higher-level education. The tables are pretty flipped and men are abysmal from elementary grades to college acceptance rates. I would say that efforts should probably now be more focused on getting them easier access to education.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:31 PM

In the case we're talking about (women), what sort of reward are you thinking about? Probably support and advocate for their issues on the contingent that they support women's issues.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 01:28 PM

This idea stems from a just world fallacy that I could take all day and I couldn't give you every single way this statement is contradicted by modern-day examples, not to mention historical ones. Just for one. Slavery still exists in the modern world. Not even going to bother pointing out historically how long we've had vs not having it.

More like it attempted and it just failed.

/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 08:06 AM

Then most people have no values. If you only stand for something because it benefits you, it’s not a value, it’s a personal interest. Disagree with you here even though when all the cards are on the table, I probably have similar values to you. People can have values, but not at the sole cost of their own personal interest. Your situation is honestly a good example of that. You believe in helping people, but you don't do it at the cost of signing up with a group that is against you.

is not contingent on getting their sign-on for a cause I care about. But do you see why it's reasonable and expected that most don't? Through any lens.

So you think women should just accept less rights because you're worried they'll want more just for being treated equally? No. Once said rights are acquired, does it stop there? sure men keep coming out on top. There's not many people coming out on top.

Empathy. I'm not trans, I'm not going to ever marry a man, I'm not Ukrainian, I'm not black, yet I can support all those causes despite the fact that I don't benefit from them. Fair. But the question needs to be asked if they would care for you? Would a trans person care about male suicide even though men make most of the suicide, or are they more concerned with their own suicide rate? Are gay men more in solidarity with their straight counterparts? Would Ukraine send aid to the U.S. in the even…
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 07:03 AM

It's not so much just those specific things. Rather, the entirety of the left really didn't have anything for men, and its regular voting base had no faith in them despite sharing their values. Incels are varied across class, education, race, and ethnicity. They pretty much hit all over the board. The GOP had its biggest uptick in votes across gender, ethnicity, and race that it has seen in years, with a lot of men leading the front. Where exactly do you think it failed to garner votes?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:39 AM

Question if I may. Why does that mean you have to be a feminist? Can you not care for them and their lives without tying yourself to a political movement? Say we get abortion back the way it was. What's next? When does the goal get accomplished? Where is the end state in all of this?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:26 AM

Would you elaborate on that?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:22 AM

That's fair.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:22 AM

Say Row v Wade got reinstated, and at every legal and political level, we ensured that all rights were equal between the sexes. Would it stop there? Would they ask for more? If so, what else? Because of the way the movement has expressed its thoughts on men, it really begs the question if they would do the same if the situation was flipped? Would it be amendable to say that one can support women's rights without the feminist movement? Would you be able to?
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:16 AM

Is it selfishness or is it practicality? Why would I expect women to go out of their way for me, and in turn I them? Empathy? Where has that been really expressed consistently in the modern feminist movement? Also, their message was kinda clear on the matter. That women don't owe men. They kinda set the stage that we should all fend for ourselves. It's harsh, but fair. But to a more specific point. They really can't expect something from nothing. Just about nothing is done that way. You can call…
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 06:06 AM

I like where you're headed, but if I may attempt to make the conversation more specific. What do you say to all the guys who are often just looked at with negligence? Those who will be judged harshly if they fail to provide for a second? I don't really disagree with you. But what do you say to the men, because there's plenty of them, who are born and raised in a home where women caring for them is a mythical legend.

/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/25 05:49 AM

Yes, but it should probably be reciprocated, no?

a LOT of guys who actually matter That's probably why right there. Because they realize that a good portion of women. To possibly include moms, aunts, sisters, cousins, girlfriends, and wives who don't fully care for them as much as they do them. It's obviously more nuanced than that but for the sake of brevity, it boils down to this: The blatant hypocrisy has men so bewildered at the fucking audacity of a lot of women who would dare ask for more when the women in their lives just barely care ab…

This is a separate issue. Not really the one OP is talking about. Your observation IS accurate, but understand it still doesn't solve the problem most men are motivated in fixing. More than a fair share of men who have friends would still report themselves to be lonely, for the fact that a romantic partner is absent in their lives. By all means you can promote this. But loneliness would still be an issue for most. Friends are one thing. A wife, girlfriend, or lover is something else entirely.

That wasn't his point. It's not that you care about dick. You probably don't. Rather you have no consideration for the words that come out of your mouth. Like saying: Trump is such a little dick. Could be or could not be true. You, me, and most people don't care about his dick. But the one guy in the group who is just a decent guy, who so happens to have a little dick. Now feels bad about the fact his insecurity and shame is placed upon people like Trump. Because it relates to him. It's not abou…

Isn't your point that you don't like stylish men? No. Rather style comes in all types of ways. If you don't dig some or most of them that's fine. You want a guy to look like he just rolled out of bed with a stubby face. And no they don't look good that way. Some women dig it.

Pretty sure the camera was curating its subject. Specifically just targeting a Friday night where everyone was looking fancy or it went on wall street on an early morning or late afternoon. Also men today look fine really. What's wrong with what they got? If anything there's just a bigger variety in style than there ever was. You got more to pick from unless you only really dig the well shaved suit.

I doubt they were that consistent with it. Grooming has always cost. Maybe middle, upper middle, and high class bothered with the consistency, but I'm hazarding a guess that everyone else just made sure to have decent clothes on. At most greasing your hair and shaving your face was as fancy as it usually got. Things like watches, dress shoes, fancy belts, designer shirts, and well made pants were overlooked by some strong jeans and hard leather shoes.

This is just for LA. Don't get me wrong, it's good that they have this. But it still stands that a good chunk of support is made for women. Mind you it's not out of nowhere, they have a dire need of it and they've made political campaigns for it. Subsequently the majority of people that usually don't get support are men. Many reasons as to why that is, chief among them is our general socialization and expectations of men.

It comes from the understanding that the conversation is far more nuanced than their platitudes. Also when you confront those of them with empathy, you may find yourself achieving common ground.

Probably because the word has shifted into more of an identity. People can have feminist beliefs, but they may also have beliefs that outright opposed it. And if you call yourself a feminist you may find yourself almost handcuffed to the beliefs and values of the group. When you'd rather not.

Because it's a nuanced subject with consistently shifting views. Also you're not adding in context. For the most part men here insist that women like getting approached by men THEY consider attractive That's honestly pretty accurate.

Help women if you want but do so knowing that they will never help you and That's pretty uncharitable even though you did bring good points. Is self interest their aim? Absolutely. But they're not devoid of common human sympathy.

Most men are still deluded, and live in a fantasy world where women enjoy being sexually harassed on the street by men, and enjoy being forced to get into relationships with men due to financial/social pressures, when that couldn’t be further from the truth.

OP is not outright saying it, but his examples kinda touch up on it. Allyship is nuance. Say you understand and believe that women are overlooked when it comes to promotions and positions of power. In that same breath say you're a Catholic and you still believe that abortion is ultimately unjustifiably ending a human life.

Probably because the word is slowly evolving. His examples kinda hit the heart of his speech. If you're white and advocate for black lives, you're going out your way for a group that you're not a part of. These political movements have shifted from ideas into self identifications. No matter how you slice it, even if you believe in redistributing wealth, if you're rich then you're not poor.

balanced mixture of looks, status, money, and other personality traits. I can agree with that reasoning. Though I think context is missing.

Ya know. I never thought about it that way. Instead of looking at what matters to each side I was equating the examples OP gave us. Like the height example. Most men could not really care about the size of women's breasts even though there's a preference. Big titties are nice but most will take any size with absolutely no complaints. Those that do care are unconcerned as to how they're perceived. They'll die on that titty hill. But you are right. We just care about different things.

Tiny chested, small ass, slim waisted women would be the counterpart to the skinny man, and I promise you plenty of guys would think she's hot.

/r/PurplePillDebate24/02/25 05:28 PM

Do a lot of men disguise their fetish or try to live it out? Most if not all. Actually, that's just people in general. But to your point. A LOT of women read erotica or books with heavy sexual themes. The paperback smut books are in every library and bookstore I've ever been in, from California to New York. Also, MOST PEOPLE have a power fantasy. It's in there in damn near every piece of media and creative outlet that humans have constructed.
/r/PurplePillDebate24/02/25 12:45 AM

Nah. I understood. I just didn't think it was a good response. Pointing out that men have a power fantasy in creative outlets, doesn't negate the idea that women express their sexual fantasies in erotica.

They affect us no doubt. But we also seek more, otherwise we gladly choose death.

Historically, the pendulum swings. And? Does not mean we don't try something new. Your fight is for unsexed men. My fight is for both community building and autonomy . No the fuck it's not. I'm on the side that let's people do what they want to do. Obviously there's limits and depending on the subject, huge contradictions. And here's one. Community building needs to include everyone and everyone needs to be and adequate level of happy, wether you like it or not unsexed men count as part of that.…

No. Not even close. Women's sexual preference will lead to a collapse in society because you need people to keep society going. If women don't want to have kids society will think of some slogan, plan, ideology, some message, incentive, shaming tactics to make them have kids. Idk what is it that makes you think society will go quietly into the dark. I'm not suggesting that women fuck men they're not attracted to. That causes a whole other set of problems.

Ever noticed that people who live with a bunch of pets tend to be lonely and are using those very same pets to stave off lonelyness. Pets are great. I get that. But for a lot of people they're often used to fill a need a partnership and for a good amount of people pets only do so much. Overall basic companionship is great and it can be fulfilled by many things. Still doesn't really negate the want (more of a need if we're gonna be honest) for a more intimate relationship.

I’d go by definitions, especially on a word so common as gradation. The strict definition doesn't really fit here. "the action of dividing into degrees or other proportionate divisions on a graduated scale." How exactly would you divided happiness? If you believe so. I also never said it was the norm. Never mentioned how common it occurs. You don't really need to mention anything. That's how important and how often human relationships occur. Whether that be platonic, friendly, professional, roma…

I disagree. While I'd love to have kids it's not an absolute must in order to form romantic relationships. I think most people can agree to that. The goal of having kids doesn't need to be fulfilled in order for me to love someone. Thoughts?

Never heard it used in that context. I argue it's very common as it fits to the person you made the link to. There's a gradation in "happiness". You can be contented with your life without a partner. If you can't, that's an issue as it makes you an easy target for people who'd like to use you. Nah, this is a coping mechanism. To pretend that you don't need a life partner seems utterly facetious. I won't deny that these individuals exist, but it's dishonest to think them the norm. Would you mind …

This kinda makes human relationships (particularly romantic ones) as a bottom tier. As a secondary that can be live without as long as you have other forms. Sigh Listen. To some people that's a possibility. To most you're asking to endure for something you weren't meant to. To force to be something that you don't want to be. Don't underplay romantic relationships. Trust me they mean that much to most people.

What does gradation mean then? In this term? The completion of acts or study in order to attain a certain state. She didn’t say graduation.

I didn’t get it when I was depressed Congratulations, I got the exact opposite. Who's experience is more credible, yours or mire? I instead would ask to ask you to be more reasonable.

This isn't about a perfect world it's what is feasible. Achieving happiness within a void of lonelyness seems irrational.

OP’s thought experiment sucks because it presumes that losing a part of your life is the same thing as never having had it.

If they need a relationship to be happy, then they will never have a good relationship. Prove this platitude. It will be a relationship of codependency. Really? Why can't it be egalitarian? I need you just as much as you need me. Why is that not an option? You cannot have a good relationship with someone who is codependent, nor should you have a relationship with a person like that.

You acknowledge the cushion is there but you are unwilling to acknowledge that the cushion has an effect on lessening consequences. I agree it can.
