Yeah, that's fair. There definitely is a stereotype of men complaining about their wives shopping habits. I agree with your response to the parent comment too, I don't think it's having a huge effect on who most men choose to date. I don't think there's an exact parallel between men and women's so called "low value" pastimes.

No man is judging or rejecting a woman because she dresses well and goes shopping lol wtf. That would eliminate nearly every woman who lives in a major city.

I mean, there are women who love man boy “projects" That's different, those guys are almost always physically attractive or a dealer or "in a band." Chubby chasers are specifically attracted to objectively unattractive women. He's right, there's really no parallel. As in all things, women are just pickier, and will never be as diverse or ecumenical in their tastes in the opposite sex as men, as much as they like to say here to the contrary.

Nothing quite to the same extent since most men prioritize looks and availability to the exclusion of almost everything else, so don't care that much about a girl's hobbies. Being a gamer girl is actually the easiest way to cultivate orbiters. Horrible gender ratio, with a bunch of dudes who likely don't interact with any other girls.

Chicks into the e girl aesthetic are down with it. It's actually a bonus. Of course you have to already be attractive to make it work. The definition of fashion is basically "clothes that attractive people are wearing." Most of them grow out of it though, so the old ladies here will probably be dismissive.

The recent clamoring for another purge gives me mixed feelings. I was here for the first one, when pinkgoldrose posted the first (and by far best) purge pic thread, and when LKF was still LKF. It was amazing, but the last few purges have really just been chasing that original high, and falling very short. The last one was actually fucking terrible and got boring before the first day was over, I kind of hoped it would kill the desire for another one. There were discussions about shortening it fro…

He's not talking about having sex on the first date, he's talking about approaching first and opening yourself to rejection. You can approach first and still not fuck on the first date, and plenty of high quality men will stick around if you're shooting within your league. Women don't approach because they don't have to, and they're afraid of rejection enough for it to outweigh the possible benefit. But they reframe it as something more noble than it really is.

Women on average are having less sex, same as men, but this not true at the extreme end, where it is higher than ever: Overall, younger Americans are now having sex with fewer people than their Boomer or Gen X elders, but that’s not the case for the female promiscuous minority. The figure below looks at what portion of the sample for each survey year falls into the top five percentile for the entire sample; in order words, what proportion of women for each survey year had 16 or more partners.

The CW company actor who’s under bright lights and 8K cameras. This guy is chad now, and probably has the easiest time pulling. Stephen Amell wasn't lifting so he could move bales of hay (and you'd never get that body doing purposeful physical labor and eating corn and beef), he was lifting and dieting and dehydrating and probably taking steroids to to get the kind of body gay men have always sought, and probably now who most young women see as peak masculine sex appeal.

This is really interesting, but I don't know if I agree with it. It's especially ironic coming from Jonathan Haidt, who is himself a self-described leftist, but one who actually does make the effort to engage each side in good faith. I think the more interesting shift is how all the conspiracy energy has shifted to the right now, whereas it was formerly the domain of the left.

Yes, you have consumed a great deal of feminist outrage porn, good job. But if modern men don't get to take credit for the work of their forefathers in building civilization, then they don't have to pay for their sins either.

It wasn't "men" but a certain exceedingly tiny minority of men in power who did so in a specific historical context. Apex fallacy strikes again. In a later historical context, another minority men undid these laws in accordance with societal advancement. I don't see how it's controversial to say that sexual dynamics oppress both genders.

No. The qualities that get him laid also benefit him in the workplace and in his non-sexual relationships and earnmhim respect from other men. And how does this not also apply to women? Women also benefit greatly in their personal life by adhering to supposedly oppressive beauty standards. The oppression isn't just from men, but within the FSM as well. Women have evolved to form in-group bias to help each other's babies survive and to protect each other from men. Intrasexual competition between …

it's good for him to be more masculine, more assertive, more successful, more ambitious, more charming, etc. It's only good for him in the sense that it gets him what he physically needs. The relentless competition among men that this breeds is the entire reason there is no male in-group bias, and why intramale social networks are so weak. Women invading men's spaces invariably corrode their comradery and fosters hostility and aggression. Most men would be much happier if they could just be them…

Thats true, but I'd argue that this is only because virtually all the female regulars here have found their man and are apparently happy, wheras the vast majority of the male posters are single and (usually) struggling to play the game. So they naturally come here to vent. If you want to see unsuccessful women venting and endless posts shaming men for failing to adhere to their gender role then you only have to take a quick trip over to FDS, which I consider just another node in the network of d…

men willingly Willingly is the operative word. Men wouldn't engage in the majority of these behaviors if they weren't pressured to "man up" in order to appeal to women. It's why there's a growing trend of hikkikomori and learned helplessness among young men who would rather play video games, smoke pot, and pursue other hobbies rather than join the rat race, and why these young men are being criticized for their failure to man up rather than any kind of society-wide rethinking of the male gender …

Not really, it's a banal thought. The reverse is also true w/r/t men's autonomy being restricted by women's sexual imperative as well. The majority of men not born into privilege have to play all sorts of status games and undergo all manner of difficult and time consuming self improvement in order to appeal to women as well, to satisfy the burden of a libido that none of us asked for. Sex is about compromises on both ends. The interesting stuff worthy of debate is in the details.

I agree, but I think it's worth mentioning that motives and reasoning can be complicated. Ultimately, not all decisions in life should be made based purely on individual desires. We owe something to our families and we realize that, otherwise there would be no feelings of guilt or aspect of haunting. And I think most children throughout history were not explicitly planned, but end up becoming wanted.

The idea of denying my mother having grandkids kind of haunts me and it's one of the reasons why I'm on the fence. It makes you realize how much family life, and really life in general has always been about guilt, debt, and obligation. And how incompatible it can be with modern individualistic lifestyles. Ending the line with me would be a kind of genetic heresy, an intergenerational slap to the face of millenia of my ancestors. And, of course, a mortal wound to my parents, and blatant lack of g…

Yeah, it's a terrible burden. I love my parents, they've done everything for me and my siblings. And I know this is the one thing I can do that will truly repay them for their sacrifices. They're old world, so the idea of being childfree isn't even remotely conceivable to them. And now as the youngest, the burden falls onto me.

I'm my parents last hope to have grandkids, and while I can appreciate the idea of parenthood in the abstract the actual reality of it seems like such a gamble. Could either be the best thing you ever do, or the official end of your life as an individual.

Nah, they definitely do. Men know other men, and are natural watchdogs, whether they're cops or criminals. Men are much better at differentiating who is sketchy and a potential dangerous threat and who isn't. Especially better at it than women, who are naturally more empathetic and trusting. Women let Ted Bundy into their vehicles willingly where he raped and strangled them. I'd argue that men are much better at judging other men's intentions than they are at what sorts of conditions are unsafe.…

I'm sympathetic to her overall point but my main issue with the whole "alpha male theory is based on studies of wolves in captivity and thus is inapplicable to humans" is that modern humans basically are living in captivity. We're a species that effectively domesticated ourselves, and a lot of our rebellious antisocial behaviors stem from that fact. That said, studies of so called alphas in other species obviously don't map exactly onto humans. But glamorization and fetishization of male rebelli…

Nevertheless, I sympathize with both. Mostly I just want to see parents admit that they did it for themselves. Nobody goes to a dog breeder and says they did it for the dog being bred's sake.

I think the better question to ask is why is it wrong for schools, and parents, (and workplaces for that matter), to have standards for appearance? Schools have always had dress codes, it's natural that they would relax over time, but I don't see anything inherently wrong with drawing a line. It's a gradient of course. It's not reasonable to force girls to wear hijabs to class, for example. But I don't really see how restrictions against girls exposing midriff and wearing miniskirts (or against …

you can be good without people knowing, but how do YOU know? People who are really good at things but never got attention often don't think they are good.

Politics has fully morphed into a mindless team sport. Few people are intellectually honest enough to remain consistent when their team loses a point. And it makes sense, you don't win in this game by being honest. The idea of statesmanship and sincere public service is dead in this country, and if it ever was alive it survived by disenfranchising large swaths of the population.

Most of Wilt's exploits happened before he was an absolute superstar. The NBA in the 1960s was nowhere near as popular as it is now, it was niche. Baseball was still far more dominant in terms of fame and cultural influence. The NBA teams who weren't the Lakers or Celtics were the equivalent to like small scale touring rock bands. They'd be lucky to get a few hundred out to see them each night. Most of his conquests would have been random female fans and groupies. Definitely no supermodels or an…

A lot of people (like you) seem to forget that Wilt wasn't a superstar until late in his career. He didn't always play for the Lakers, his 100 point game wasn't even recorded or broadcast over syndicated radio, and there are only audio recordings of the 4th quarter. It happened in a dingy half-empty nowhere gym in fucking Hershey, PA. Basketball was nowhere near as popular as it is now. No NBA players were that famous. This is why Brits opinions on American sports are useless. No one calls them …

It does though. Why would POC women raise their daughters not to respect themselves based on their skin color alone, when, you know, they generally share a skin color? In any case, your comment was a non-sequitur. Whether or not one has relationship standards for themselves has literally nothing to do with your ethnicity.

Is there an easy way to eliminate desire for relationships and genuinely be content with being alone? I wouldn't say it's easy, but it is possible. You have to have good social networks where you can feel self-actualized, truly "seen" and respected/needed. These conditions take a lot of work to create and maintain, truly the work of a lifetime. Very few people can find contentment in total isolation. Solitude does strange things to your mind.

Because once you've had sex you realize that it won't make you (or your hypothetical partner) happy. Because, eventually, most men do catch feelings for a girl, begin to feel territorial, and as a relationship develops realize that keeping a good woman around is infinitely harder than just sleeping with her once. Sex is only the beginning. The real difficulty comes later.

I think true sexual and romantic satisfaction for both men and women has been rare in history, and always ephemeral. Sex and stability are always at odds, and Madonna/whore and AF/BB are inverse cognates of each other. It's only very recently (and only in W.E.I.R.D. countries) that the basics of survival and comfort have been solved for, so that something as fleeting and rarefied as self-actualization can rise to the level of legit concern.

But I don’t think most women drastically differ in how much each one is weighted holistically. And this is the crux of the blackpill position. Now that women are more independent and security is less of a concern, lust is disproportionately weighted to a greater degree. It takes precedence mainly for the fact that it's what actually opens the door for any sexual or romantic relationship with a woman. The other categories rest on this foundation. (No moralizing about this on my end, just to be cl…

That's kind of an unnuanced take for someone calling for more nuance in the debate (which i agree with btw). Each woman weighs each differently, and the balance changes at different points in her life. Of course generalizations can be made about different subsets of women, but not the whole.

The counter argument is that restricting women's liberties is itself immoral, which is the natural conclusion for any liberal democratic society (liberal in the literal sense, not leftist) That said, yeah it sucks that sexuality is amoral, not immoral.

It's a strange thing because I know several people who have gotten serious relationships out of it. I ended up in a nearly 3 year LTR off it. So it can be a real option for some people, and while I think I'm above average I'm no chad. There's no reason not to use it due to the minimal effort required (although men definitely have to apply more to their profile than women to see results), unless you can't emotionally handle the potential for failure and passive rejection.

fundamentally selfish and self-serving In part, yes, but so is almost everything humans do.

Nothing wrong with either, but CF people hamster that their own self-centeredness is somehow less selfish.

Not all people practice their hobbies to perform, doesn't mean they're unproductive, and even classic "time waster" hobbies like gaming can be turned into performances now. Things like reading or chess that don't create any real manifest products can still be productive hobbies in that they keep your mind sharp and expand it.

Do porn, video games and weed make you significantly more likely to reach that stage of depression compared to if you hadn't? That's different for every person, but I think it can be safely argued that delving further into these escapes will only perpetuate the situation.

This... Is not what determinism implies It is what hard determinism implies, which is what I was referring to: Hard determinism (or metaphysical determinism) is a view on free will which holds that determinism is true, that it is incompatible with free will, and therefore that free will does not exist. Although hard determinism generally refers to nomological determinism,[1] it can also be a position taken with respect to other forms of determinism that necessitate the future in its entirety.[2]…

The only real evidence for the claim that free will isn't real is that the universe appears to behave as a deterministic machine (which, of course, we don't actually know for sure, and seems to be less and less convincing the finer the resolution we look at it).

I find that people who say this rarely actually behave as if they have no conscious control of their thoughts and behaviors. Free will is the rare thing that isn't diminished if it's an illusion.

Yes, violence is largely genetic There is no evidence for this. Actually, the evidence is to the contrary, violence is a learned behavior and consistently tied to exposure to violence or trauma at an early age. It explains why modern society is far less violent than it was in the past. Our genes haven't changed much but our way of socializing children has. And this is why in developing war torn countries, violence is a self-perpetuating cycle.

Or if it’s a different level of nursing that is being practiced It is a different level, more advanced medical specialities require more education, as expected. But the bulk of nursing duties don't require 4 years, and the need is there to facilitate quicker turnaround times for training.

Your point about social need breaks down when you consider that nursing is needed more than finance bros, but isn’t rewarded the same Because need is just one aspect of the pay structure, the other is scarcity. It's easier to train effective nurses than doctors or financial advisors.

“showing a willingness to provide” This isn't what women here usually argue, though. They equate spending to "emotional investment", which, to each their own, but that's a peculiar framing to say the least.

It's all social media perception, unfortunately. I'd say it's tough to argue against the fact that female "influencers" as much as I hate that term, mostly build brands and create content centered on their bodies and self-objectification. Instagram and tiktok are dominated by this. On the other hand, male creators (save for all the fitness bro content, although even that requires a lot of work) can't rely on that easy validation, and usually actually develop some interesting skill or talent. So …

The part about it being super important for women to find husbands and have babies. What isn't debatable is that women in their 20s aren't thinking about this at all, it's only women who have hit the proverbial wall who consider this. Which is as red pill as it gets. It puts you at odds with virtually every other woman here, who love to either argue against the existence of the Wall (because apparently the dating lives of 40+ women are sunshine and roses) or who argue that the wall is just as se…

I agree that whining for empathy is not especially productive for solving their problem, but tbh the point of the whining is a kind of catharsis and moral posturing, they don't really expect any real solution to come forth. Also, it's to be expected that they aren't concerned with the fates of older women outside their own demographic. Feelings of envy and injustice are typically focused on those in your proximity and same demographic, aka aged matched western women.

They may, however, play along This is moving the goalposts. "Playing along" is not offering commitment, it's still contingent on the man taking the initiative. Similar to when first meeting a man, women will give IOIs hinting a desire for more, but they will very rarely take the first step and make themselves vulnerable to explicit rejection.

How often are women forwardly offering commitment? I'm going to guess for most average men it's not very often. That would count as approaching, which as we all know women hate and consider unattractive. A man is responsible for virtually every escalation of a relationship, from the first date to sex to commitment.

I think the line you draw between 'settling' and 'compromise' is just that one sounds semantically nicer. In practice it's often a distinction without a difference.

Most people accept this and adjust their standards accordingly, and most find contentment. Whether you call it settling or compromising doesn't really change the outcome.

Why do you assume there is an answer to the why? Perhaps there is a something for no reason? This might be a difference in semantics as far as the definition of "meaning" but we as a species have been able to identify patterns within this emergent reality and connect them together slowly and increase our still quite insignificant influence over it. It's small but it's something, and it shows that reality isn't some incoherent absurdist painting; it's not impossible to establish cause and effect …

I dont believe there is such a thing. Then there's no such thing as "faux-meaning" either, as it implies a kind of "true meaning" that it fails to meet the standard of. As far as what constitutes real, I actually think that is a far less interesting question than why do we experience anything at all? Not "what is real?" but "why is there anything at all?" True meaninglessness would be a void. Why is there something at all if none of it means anything? Whether we assign meaning to it at all, ther…

it is more like faux-meaning to maintain sanity among humans. But that's what I was asking in return, what would count as "true meaning" to you? It seems that you're arguing because it only exists within and between our minds it isn't real. But what's in our minds is actually the only thing that's real. It's all we ever actually experience.

I would say social cooperation is actually of no importance being that our existence is meaningless and inconsequential on a grand scale.

Depends on how you define boring. If it's partying and drinking and going out then lots of young people are hella boring too. I've met a lot of old people with cool careers or creative skills and hobbies that require a lot of time alone to develop, so externally they probably look boring 90% of the time, but create very interesting results. Middle aged people doing the family life grind are probably classifiable as boring too, but boring is good for raising kids and building wealth.

I don’t think a girl truly likes you if you can’t even be insecure around her without her being turned off. See, this is the thing. A woman can absolutely like you and care about you and have sympathy for you while still being turned off. Sympathy is incompatible with women being aroused. Women can be very compassionate and sympathetic. Just not for the guys they fuck. They want to be fucked by cool, confident men who are dead inside. That's what gets them wet.

I would argue makeup itself isn't a sign of insecurity. Plenty of confidently uber hot girls with no reason to be insecure about their appearance still apply it liberally. The whole point is to attract attention to your face, after all. Super insecure girls are more likely to dress down and frumpy in pursuit of invisibility.

Yeah, insecurity is natural. When people say "you're insecure" they aren't actually saying that (because that would be banal), they're saying "stop sharing your insecurities with me, it's awkward." Being outwardly insecure is unattractive for both sexes, but women of course have more leeway, as in all things regarding sex. As a man you have to keep that shit inside, except with your close friends over beers or maybe someone you've been married to for years. Sucks but it is what it is.

Yeah this is exactly it, and my ex knew that I was feeling trapped in a terrible position with limited potential for moving up that was making me seriously unhappy. My new position actually has unique circumstances that would provide a place to live for both of us, as well as healthcare and an extensive support system in a fantastic location that I thought would be a great benefit to both of us…

Sounds like it ran its course and the breakup is somewhat mutual, so staying friendly is probably fine This was my thought too. Still, I feel motivated to move on to a new, better person asap, and I'm skeptical of my motives, as if it's due more to revenge to "win the breakup" and prove my ex made the wrong decision in not sacrificing by moving for me. I know it's terrible, and I hope it will pass. The most likely outcome is that I revert back to my normal loner personality and stay single for a…

"More muscular" has nothing to do with muscularity or having muscles though I mean, it literally does. More muscular means muscularity and more size, really not sure where the misunderstanding is there. Women storing fat more easily does not mean obesity. Obesity is a disease, it isn't feminine any more than having asthma or cystic fibrosis is feminine or masculine.

That's the whole point of the discussion. "Being associated with" is a subjective decision or conclusion. Men being associated with being more muscular is not subjective, it is objective biological reality. Women will never be as strong or as big as men on average, no matter how much they train. There are plenty of studies on this. Even female athletes who train constantly are outcompeted in terms of upper body strength by even sedentary, average men.

Well then it doesn't make sense to pick among the three when looking for a potential spouse. I'd fall in love with a woman who knows how to exemplify each trait in the appropriate context. But to answer the question in this comment, I associate "prettiness" with a more casual vibe, like a cute girl next door but still highly feminine presentation. Think like jeans and a cute top. Or a sundress. Beautiful to me is more like an artistic presentation of femininity, almost like a painting or sculptu…

So it sounds like you agree that these ideas of masculinity and femininity relating to some physical features are bogus, right? No because men are genetically engineered to be more muscular than women, and to develop muscularity more easily. Physical strength and size is a trait as closely associated with being a man as any, I can't think of a more appropriate definition of masculine than that. Being obese is a disease, nothing about it is associated with fertility and virility, and thus by exte…

You're gonna have to define the difference between the three to get any real answers. Based on my own subjective perception of those adjectives, the same woman can be all three at different times, depending on how she's dressed and behaving.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/07/21 05:12 AM

The feminine analog to male muscularity is not obesity wtf Muscles are masculine because they're associated with strength, aggression, and testosterone. This is just terrible logic. Physical fitness is attractive in both sexes, and being muscle bound isn't the only outward demonstration of fitness. Women are most attractive when they are fit, and the natural feminine shape of their bodies isn't obscured by obesity.

I think the hype around Supreme fits what you're saying.

Bad looks are sufficient to disqualify a man. A good personality, no matter how attractive, is not sufficient to make up for below-threshold looks. Men and women are exactly the same in this way.

Women are born with a head start, due mostly to men's thirst but still. The "attractiveness" that men build is mostly contextual status factors, like wealth or social proof/popularity.

What are the thoughts here on the viability and functionality of LDRs? Say there's at least 2 years of in person dating invested, but then like a career related separation. Are they always doomed? What if there's groundwork for a reunion but nothing set in stone?

One thing I have noticed is that men - especially young men - tend to try to impress each other by downplaying their emotions for their girlfriends Yeah, this is definitely a thing.

The thing women here seem to constantly miss is that being normal is necessary but far from sufficient for attracting girls into sexual relationships.

Ideally you'd simp for no one. You don't have to choose one or the other extreme.

I thought his point was that they sublimated their repressed sexuality into fervor for big brother and The Party.

It's not that, it's that hot girls are very rarely funny. Same goes for chad types too. Humor is developed in the crucible of fighting to steal the spotlight from all the bland hot people.

You can't slash your calories or your body will freak out and try and hold onto the extra fat by adjusting it metabolism. If you can get past the first week, your body adjusts and will melt the fat quickly and keep it off. Just make sure that when you actually eat you keep it clean and avoid binging on carbs and sweets, and you actually feel more full off less food, since the carbs aren't spiking your insulin.

OCPs are chill, and way better than the ABUs, but just not the same vibe.

Getting a haircut that suits you is normal body maintenance. And when his hair inevitably falls out past the point of no return, what is the haircut that suits him? Oh yeah, shaving it off, that thing I already suggested. Hairy legs and armpits on women are also a near universally an unattractive trait that is completely natural. And the connection to balding is...? Didn't think I'd have to explain this, but it's much simpler to remove hair where it is than to get it to grow in a place where its…

I mean, that you had to resort to non-sequitur examples basically proves my point. No one was talking about other body hair; we're talking about balding. A bad hairline is a a specific and universally agreed upon unattractive trait that you can't hide forever.

This is male neuroticism Styling your hair intentionally to hide your receding hairline is even more neurotic. That's why I suggested shaving it.

I really don't think most men are interested in "beating the hell" out of their partners either. 25% of women's online porn searches involve violent, extreme acts and rising. Obviously this doesn't mean women as a whole fantasize about and desire to be violently degraded, but it's completely disingenuous of you to claim that the interest in the topic comes from only one gender.

Anyone else here think women are far more likely to be controlling, territorial, get angry if you have other female friends or members of your circle? My ex was like this. Extremely territorial over me and my free time, hated it and threw a fit if another girl so much as talked to me. Several of my friends have similar experiences. Personally I give my partners a lot of latitude, and the opportunity to build trust. The narrative here tends to be that only men are controlling over their partners,…

Personally I think “amused mastery” sounds contrived and a bit autistic I mean, so does "behaviorally attractive comportment" tbf. I get what you mean by it, any attempt to systematize something so ephemeral is going to sound spergy. But it's necessary if you want to analyze it. But I've learned that analyzing it, while interesting for discussion, is not actually useful in application. You really can't reverse engineer attractive social skills.

The problem with trying to objectively rate attractiveness is that the only meaningful way to gauge it is by how in demand your are with your target demographic. And so by definition average women will always rate higher than average men, which is why comparing sexes' attractiveness is pretty meaningless, and why looksmatch is a non-concept. People can come to a kind of statistical consensus on generally attractive features, but even at the higher echelons there is bound to be disagreement betwe…

No one is "letting" anyone be abused. The vast majority of men are not violent abusers.

Even if everything is deterministic, I don't think that would necessarily absolve people of the responsibility for their sexual "choices." The particular collection of particles that is you would still ultimately (or I guess I should say proximately) be the cause of whatever consequences result from your existence, and it's still logical to hold you responsible. Who or what else would be, the big bang? Whether or not free will exists, deep down everyone feels and behaves as if it does.

If the change is only about outcomes obtained due to the use of said body/electrical patterns/mind then the change is not a change that involves the person, it only involves the results obtained by that person.

"Change her personality?" Framing is key.

"Maturity" in the context of this conversation is not a scientific concept, the way physical or sexual maturity are.

Different standards are not discrimination This might be the exact definition of discrimination. Note I didn't say such discrimination is necessarily immoral.

Fairness would also imply that there is an agreed-upon set of rules by people abide by, and there clearly is NOT.

It's actually how they usually emerge. This is why regulation and education are necessary to confront racial or gender discrimination normally.

Most men are sexual NPCs, period. Every woman thinks her attraction is this special, unique, mysterious force...but it's not.

There are a lot of former dweebs who ride bikes to fake an edge, especially in the military.

A junkie upbringing is exactly the kind of upbringing I was talking about. Not all role models are positive in the traditional sense. I also wasn't talking about your man, but thank you for confirming my point that the women here love to touch themselves publically and apropos of nothing to the thought of their unfailingly alpha men. How do you know a PPD woman married the ideal alpha? Don't worry, she'll tell you. No need to make it personal, I wasn't whining, just commenting.

Guess it just shows how no one's ever 100% right on everything. Also that loyalty, emotion, and politics will always inevitably intersect. At which point rational debate ceases to be meaningful, and all that matters is who has the will and power to enforce their agenda.

Western leftism holds harm reduction as its highest value, hence all the oppression Olympics to claim victim status. Palestinian activists were effective in claiming the moral high ground in a situation that is too historically and politically complex for most leftists in the states to process, so that's why it's this way. Which is very interesting because of the divide it creates between the Jewish community, a traditional stronghold and source of thought for the political left, and the rest of…

As a woman, it's actually in my interest for them to roll over and listen to us. Not if you want an attractive male partner. Which was the point: a dominant trend in Western social conditioning trains men to be good, productive partners, with their sexual satisfaction being a secondary concern if at all. This of course coexists with all the other conditioning that does show men how to be sexually attractive, as in pop culture and fashion, that the women here mock the socially stunted dudes for n…

The irony is that you commenting on what masculine men "should have" or "should do" is literally socially conditioning, just of the opposite polarity. And so the issue isn't about whether men should follow social conditioning, but whose conditioning (hence red pill ideology), because there's no such thing as some ideal uber-masculine man who doesn't give a fuck what anyone says, except for the true hermits who no one knows about by design.

There are a lot of outstanding female service members. The best training instructor I had was a woman, and I've met many brilliant and bad-ass female pilots.

I think a good idea would to make it two tiered: after a two year mandatory service period you can elect to stay and pursue additional training for those who wish to serve in an operational role.

It isn't necessarily that they get bored faster, but that it's easier and quicker for them to replace partners, so they face less external pressure to remain in unsatisfying relationships.

"nerd culture" Yeah that's why I try to distinguish nerd from geek culture.

Cosplay is geek culture not nerdy. Nerdy women have encyclopedic knowledge of 18th century Irish poets or read German idealist philosophy or are microbiology doctoral students. Being a geek is mainstream, being a nerd never will be.

The vast majority of men would be horrified by this. Yeah, because it's in poor taste, not because it's "nerdy" I'm not sure you can even consider it nerdy, as polluting the source material with irrelevant shipping smut is the opposite of pure intellectual engagement with the material. It's "geeky", if anything; the difference between nerdy and geeky being the latter's fanservice-y preoccupation with sex. Which is why plenty of women are geeks, but few are nerds.

That doesn't answer my question, which was how do you know this revulsion is equivalent to what straight men feel from gay men trying to fuck them. The answer is that it isn't, because, to a straight man, there is no such thing as a man who isn't unwanted.

What's another way your partner could provide this security to you other than marriage? Genuinely asking, because if we could answer this, I feel like it would put the whole marriage debate here to bed. Maybe buying a house or having a kid? Although most women here say they would never dream of doing so with a man they weren't married to. I think that's more of an American mindset though, it happens way more frequently in Europe for example.

Maybe in the past, but marriage is not the barrier to escape that it used to be. I can see both sides of this argument. Marriage has aesthetic and emotional appeal to me. But like you said, people have all sorts of reasons to be personally for or against it, and a person being on either side of the fence doesn't necessarily mean they'll be a good or bad partner. Plenty of shitty people get married, often more than once.

"beautiful" is, which is only the good, the physically pleasing, the positive, etc. I mean, I hate to be that guy, but that is the literal definition. We've drifted into semantics at this point.

I've heard people say that marriage both changes everything and changes nothing about a relationship, especially if you've already been together for a long time. If you could somehow receive a message from your future self that told you that you end up with your current partner until death but you never actually got married, would you be happy or miserable? Or would it change nothing about how you feel?

I am pretty sure that the definition of beautiful isn't strictly related to physical appearance. I know, I wasn't talking about looks.

That's all well and good, but the numbers don't lie.

Right, but the point of the study was that there are more people reporting being attracted to the same sex than ever, but no commensurate increase in the amount of same sex relationships.

I think his point was that broad social acceptance is great, but one's sexuality shouldn't confer status or disdain. It should just be a neutral trait.

The most mystifying thing about covid to me is how so many places downtown have closed their public restrooms, ostensibly as a health concern. I don't get it, especially if it's a single person bathroom. Like, what is the reasoning? Being in there, alone, with a sink and soap, seems like the best case scenario for someone trying to keep themselves safe. I get social distancing, limiting the number of patrons, whatever. I'll comply. But it's infuriating that if I want to spend the day downtown, p…

It kind of seems like nobody really likes UMC people. If you're outside the club, then you're jealous of their easy lives and silver spoonfed leg-up in life; if you're inside the club, you realize that they all hate themselves, just not quite as much as they hate the other classes, and they all pretend to be poorer and more disadvantaged than they actually are. Or at least that's how it was when I went to college with them.

I have never experienced sexual arousal or lack there of based on a comparison to another person. Nah. I pick the one who arouses me most/ makes me most So then you are experiencing arousal comparatively, no? Otherwise "most" relative to what?

That's fine if you do, but your language in that comment wasn't about you personally, it was: Women don’t do this comparative thing men do and project that we do. So I suppose I'm combating the generalization of both sexes. But even then, I'm curious, you've never had multiple suitors, each attractive, yet you still had to make a choice? Or retrospectively compared the attractiveness of your previous partners? Most people who go through a glow up do this, as a way of seeing how far they've come.…

Women don’t do this comparative thing men do and project that we do. Eh, while I disagree with the person you're replying to, I think I disagree with this slightly as well. Interestingly it's very similar to how men describe their attraction as binary: fuck yes or fuck no.

The original context of the debate was whether there was any observed benefit of marriage for men. The study asks that same question and measured the effect.

That quote just supports my position. Not only does it grant that marriage itself deserves a share of the credit, but the fact that unhealthy men are more likely to get married means that it isn't self-selection by healthy men that explains the observed effect.

Take it up with your state legislators. Alimony was created to compensate for the risk women took in surrendering employment history and career potential to become SAHWives and moms. As women have gained economic power, alimony has dramatically decreased, as expected.

Only about 8.6-10% of divorces result in alimony being awarded, depending on the state. Millions of anecdotes? From who, anonymous redditors? If you're worried about losing your shit, don't marry an unemployed leech, or get a pre-nup. Easy. As far as anecdotes go, I personally know men who actually are receiving alimony.

The thing is that as gender equality increases along with overall GDP and per capita wealth, women's risk and investment decreases (lower birth rates, lower infant mortality, and fewer or no children per woman).

I can see how semantics cloud the issue.

One can demand whatever they want, independent of how effectively they can actively enforce those demands...which seems like a good definition of women's attitude.
