| 1 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.You're really reaching here, desperate to be offended by something. I think I'm starting to figure out why men aren't interested in dating you. Good luck. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 12:55 AM |

| 1 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.You’ve really never even seen a man say that finding a date is trivially easy for any woman? I've seen that one, yeah. And that any woman who isn’t swamped with male attention must be an “obese land whale” or a deformed ugly bitch Nope, haven't seen this one. or lying? Sure, I suppose this is the standard hoe_math talking point that women view men who are 7 and below as "not people" and romantic advances from them don't count.

| 1 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.But likewise, women get an endless stream of men telling them that if they don’t have dozens of men chasing them, they’re worthless ugly swamp creatures. Or that they’re lying. Never seen it. It’s pretty clear at least some bitter terminally online men want to go way out of their way to be as fucking mean as possible to any woman who isn’t hot. Sure. Is being called worthless for not having tons of sexual attention better for women somehow? I don’t see any logical reason why it would be. If you … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/26 04:13 AM |
| 1 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.OK well here's my challenge to you. Tell your client to go on Tinder during your date and watch him swipe. Since according to you, all he has to do is be a little polite and he can easily hook up. Yet he is stuck hiring a sex worker. Something is not adding up here. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 04:55 PM |
| 2 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.My theory is that the men who are willing to pay for time with you are the exact men for whom you are very much their type. Whereas for Tinder it's just guys who are desperate for any sort of hookup. Women want to be desired. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 04:45 PM |

| 2 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore.Just because I want to have sex with you doesn't mean I don't see you as a human. Let me put it this way. Suppose I'm on Tinder looking for a casual sexual encounter. I want to find a woman who is also looking for a casual sexual encounter. What is the correct way to look for a woman who's on the same page as I am? It seems like you've decided in your head that any man who desires casual sex, and quickly makes that clear, must inherently be dehumanizing you or something. I honestly think I am go… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 04:26 PM |
| 1 | Most men give their attention so freely to women that it doesn't mean anything to them anymore."Hey you look like fun! I would love for you to swallow my cum tonight! It would be a dream come true for me!" First I think from a guy's perspective this is not a dehumanizing message. I don't find it personally disgusting or disturbing. I'll bet if you opened an account on a gay app you would get a lot of messages like this. Guys are just a lot more interested in casual sex. But anyway, if you feel the message crosses a line, why don't you report it? I'm skeptical that literally 90% of your Ti… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 04:13 PM |

They're disgusting. Imagine if I said "the moment a gal sends the first message on tinder, she has already ruined it for me. Women are disgusting." You would certainly call it misogyny. If you experience that type of instinctive revulsion to men, as soon as they send you a single message, I think you have to acknowledge that is an internal issue.

J/k 🙃 I don't personally buy this based on my observations. I'm willing to believe that dating apps feel full of desperate/nasty seeming guys, but that's because those are the guys who spend the most time on the app shooting their shot with every single girl. Basically a vocal minority of the population. Like, the statement "For every 100 dudes that see me" is almost certainly false if taken literally because most of those guys will just sile… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/07/26 03:45 PM |

I think it depends on the person. I think men are more likely to want advice, but it helps to add a bit of sympathy on the side. The frustrating thing is when you get "anti-sympathy" in the form of unsupported assumptions that your failures with women must mean that you are s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/07/26 11:48 PM |

I'm happy to provide sympathy (within reason) if you're struggling to find a man, or if you've had bad experiences with men in the past.

For women under 25, it was even starker: only around one-third (35%) reported a positive view of men. https://bettinaarndt.substack.com/p/no-wonder-men… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/26 02:02 AM |
| -1 | Feminists expect male "allies", but have no interest in solving male-specific issues or even recognizing themWho's more likely to read books about feminism? Women who identify as feminists or men who don't? That's beside the point if most people aren't reading them anyways. most feminists do not start out with the worldview that all women are victims and all men are bad. They learn what men are like by being shown it in real life. I would argue this is the type of content which goes viral on social media, but it is not necessarily representative of real life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/26 01:57 AM |

Can you give a counterexample in the form of an area where you believe that women are bad and men are the victims? Can you give any examples of things you like about men? Can you give any examples of a man's issue that you are concerned about? I very rarely see self-described "feminists" on reddit do any of these things.

That's quite an assumption. "Whenever I download an app, I'm flooded with matches. These guys must just be too lazy to download an app!" Once again, sexy =/= turned on. Weird assumptions. I don't think this distinction is meaningful or relevant for our discussion. You haven't explained why it is. You seem to be acting pedantic for its own sake. Complaining = whining. Complaining isn't vulnerability. The key point I'm t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 11:11 PM |

| 4 | Many (not all) women don't really want vulnerability in a man for his own good. They want the guy's emotions to serve as a means for them to feel good, important, flattered and/or protected.Exactly. I was stressed about things at work, but I kept it to myself. My girl, who sees me every day, picked up that I was stressed and wanted to talk about it, and it took me a bit to open up about it, but we both talked through it and I ended up feeling better and so did she. That’s what being vulnerable means. I don't think this example demonstrates very much. You initially took a stoic attitude, and only opened up after a while, when your girl specifically requested to talk about it. If tha… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 06:28 AM |
| 5 | Many (not all) women don't really want vulnerability in a man for his own good. They want the guy's emotions to serve as a means for them to feel good, important, flattered and/or protected.To be clear, Webster Dictionary had that definition. I assumed you quoted it because it you felt like it would help explain what turns you on. That's never happened. So if this sub is any indication, over 99% of the time when single men open up about their issues, it comes across as bad "whining", rather than good "vulnerability". Can you see how guys might interpret this entire situation as a bait-and-switch? We're told that we need to open up about our feelings more, yet 99% of the time, it tu… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 06:11 AM |
| 2 | Many women are against men aged 30+ dating below 25 years old women because apparently the brain doesn't stop developing till you are 25.

| 8 | Many (not all) women don't really want vulnerability in a man for his own good. They want the guy's emotions to serve as a means for them to feel good, important, flattered and/or protected.What I'm starting to conclude from this discussion is that women should stop giving guys generic advice like "be emotionally vulnerable". Because that's too vague / underspecified. Instead of using all this terminology like "trauma dumping", "whining", "resilience", etc. etc. just give us a lot of concrete examples of what you do and don't like. Here's a challenge for you or any other woman reading this comment. You define vulnerability as "capable of being physically or emotionally wounded". Ca… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 03:25 AM |
| 8 | Many (not all) women don't really want vulnerability in a man for his own good. They want the guy's emotions to serve as a means for them to feel good, important, flattered and/or protected.Save that kind of shit until you’ve actually been with a person for awhile and they’re actually invested in you. Sure, but then that means if they reject you after you show vulnerability, that hurts even more, because you have become invested in them. So I don't know if there's any way to win here. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 03:14 AM |

They want the guy's emotions to serve as a means for them to feel good, important, flattered and/or protected.Address why they feel the “ick” or whatever when men show genuine emotions, instead of blaming them, then this wont be as much of a problem. Isn't the "ick" often an involuntary response though? Can a person really talk their way out of feeling the "ick"? Like, if you have a method by which I can talk myself into being a chubby chaser who loves cougars, by all means please share. I think we just have to acknowledge that gender roles are partially biological, and compassionately accommodate that … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 03:12 AM |
| 3 | Q4M: Do you believe that being vulnerable is sexy to women?BTW part of what's going on here is: assume there are two populations of women. Some like vulnerability, some dislike it. But it's impossible to tell what sort of person a woman is in advance. Especially because women are often mistaken about their preferences. So now there are two kinds of mistakes you can make: Mistake 1: Show vulnerability to a woman who doesn't like it Mistake 2: Don't show vulnerability to a woman who does like it Generally, Mistake 1 is far more costly.

| 1 | Q4M: Do you believe that being vulnerable is sexy to women?Well sure, your disclaimer basically contradicts the body of your post. You say: "I get the sense that men don't believe it for me some reason." But you also say: "I'm not using this video as evidence of anything." If you yourself don't believe the video, and you're not using it as evidence of anything, why would you expect a man to use the video as evidence of anything? Just admit that /u/Windmill_flowers is her own special flower with her own preferences distinct from all the other women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/25 01:57 AM |

Women are not a monolith. True, a few women on the internet might be "saying this over and over". That doesn't mean it is true for all women. Ironically, women are the first to point out when men inaccurately portray women as a monolith. Yet they also sometimes assume that their own preferences monolithically apply to other women.

| 1 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?I don't remember, sorry. I think maybe I did a reverse image search and found sites that included the chart but cited really specious sources. It would be good to find the oldest instance of the chart online. For all we know, Bedbible actually got it from someplace else, and it's been floating around for years. That could explain why the chart doesn't agree with Bedbible's own survey data. Dunno if there's a good way to do a search for the oldest instance though. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/11/24 06:19 PM |
| 1 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?We theorize on this sub all the time on “empirical data” less directionally verifiable than the ones in this OP. I guess, but in principle people should know that anecdotes are just anecdotes. In my opinion self-selection makes internet discussion of gender issues fairly worthless. Same way a newspaper is more likely to cover "man bites dog" than "dog bites man", a ton of gender controversy is just artifacts of self-selection. E.g. men are more likely to remark on/complain about a woman who like… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/11/24 06:17 PM |
| 1 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?Assuming the numbers are directionally accurate, I expect the #1 factor behind these numbers is just the country's sex ratio and overall population structure. India and South Korea both have a history of sex-selective abortion. You also have to consider factors such as the gender ratio of migrants to a country, which depends on the country's immigrant policy, and which of those immigrants tend to end up on Tinder. A small change in the sex ratio can translate into a large change in the singles r… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/11/24 05:02 AM |
| 3 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?Thanks. I'm still skeptical though, they only say they surveyed people in the US. Also the numbers from their survey don't match the numbers in their data visual, which seems potentially odd. (M/F ratio for US in the survey is 2.36, for the visual it's 1.91.) They write "apart from collecting records on user data and demographics from Tinder", but as I stated elsewhere in this thread, I doubt Tinder is sharing that data with a random site such as bedbible.com. Maybe they're being vague because t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/11/24 04:39 AM |
| 1 | Why do women dress provocatively if they don't like most men?"Women don’t really notice most men" but also "men are scary, women have to constantly be on their guard for them". There seems to be some disagreement on this point. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/11/24 04:03 PM |
| 1 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?Hm. Tinder isn’t seen as a “hook up app” by most women, no matter how men might view it. Even if the infographic numbers are solid -- which I doubt -- you could just be looking at the degree to which Tinder is perceived as a hookup app in various different countries. For all we know, maybe it's considered more of a serious relationship app in Europe -- but Korean women know that guys on Tinder only want hookups, so they don't use Tinder as much. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/11/24 12:18 PM |

| 1 | What can these Tinder gender ratio charts tell us about the male/female dynamics per country?I've been searching for the source of these statistics. I can't find any good source. I think there's a pretty good chance they are bogus. There's no reason for Tinder to release this sort of internal proprietary data, and I don't think there is a good way for outsiders to estimate these numbers. Happy to change my mind if someone can find a really solid source. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/11/24 05:16 AM |

| 1 | Men who fail at patriarchy and capitalism are eliminated from the dating poolHuman males are, on average, more invested in their children than other primate males, but less invested in their children than human females. So, given that human males are less invested than human females -- if human females sometimes want an abortion, it makes sense that human males will sometimes want an abortion. Personally, I'm not super invested in a man's right to abandon a baby. But I hate self-righteous hypocrisy. And if a woman complains endlessly about "gender inequality", and compla… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/24 05:43 AM |
| 3 | Men who fail at patriarchy and capitalism are eliminated from the dating poolI think requiring child support is reasonable in certain circumstances, but the system needs reform in the US.

| 3 | Men who fail at patriarchy and capitalism are eliminated from the dating poolMen care about kids. Our tax dollars go to pay for public education, child protective services, and so on. The difference is that humans have intensive child-rearing practices which are unusual for other primates. See this article: Why “Fatherhood” Is Unique To Humans Among The Primates.
