| 10 | Normalize saying you have a big vagina instead of "size queen"Men getting body shamed is awful but women also face genital shaming- there’s been a huuge rise in cosmetic surgery on female genitalia in recent years. So I just wanted to clarify, that although male genital shaming is talked about more publicly, women often face it too, often from romantic partners. Regardless, I have personally not met anybody who talks about the size of their vag. It’s a body part with somewhat “elastic” property that can change depending on the sexual feelings of the person… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/10/24 04:12 PM |
| 7 | Women have an advantage over men in the ability to earn by sex workIs this really an advantage for women? The average age to start prostitution is 14. It’s not rich women being lazy. It’s women in poverty who are struggling to find better work. Yeah, pornstars exist and maybe make good money, but they also are statistically more traumatized people. Sex work is not something people should strive to participate in. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/10/24 04:27 PM |
| – | Question for autistic womenI think women are taught to be responsible for the emotions of everyone around them, there’s this huge pressure to please everyone, and they then project the same expectation onto the people they engage with. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/24 04:00 AM |
| 1 | q4w: what logical reasons can you, as a (voluntarily) never-married woman, put forth to justify a random man risking his life to save yours?I didn’t say it was immoral. I said it would be more moral to do the heroic act but not once did I ever say it was immoral to not put yourself at risk. Major difference! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/09/24 09:10 PM |
| 30 | The attraction for age gap relationships seem one sided to meIdk why but as a 17 year old getting hit on by men who are 60 makes me scared and I don’t think that’s going to change when I’m 18. I mean the facts are the facts and men prefer younger women but I don’t want to be preferred. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/09/24 05:21 PM |
| 1 | q4w: what logical reasons can you, as a (voluntarily) never-married woman, put forth to justify a random man risking his life to save yours?Well, yeah. Not every act is logical but they are moral. The logic in morality is less individualistic and more societal, because moral behavior benefits the society. Being moral benefits the individual in terms of social status ofc, but it’s more societal than individual I’d say. Acting moral means you contribute to a moral society, which you will benefit from living in. I don’t think anyone has a moral obligation to risk their life, but it’s a kind action that should be applauded. In terms of … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 09:50 PM |
| 1 | To the female losers here, why won't you date a male loser?I think I’m decently attractive, guys tell me I’m a 9 but it’s not exactly socially acceptable to tell someone they’re ugly so idk…Anyways I’d call myself a loser regardless because I am depressed and don’t have a social life. I WANT LOSERS! I like people who look funky and have issues. Makes me feel like maybe they won’t treat me bad if they don’t have many other options. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 03:06 AM |
| 1 | Watching porn is not cheating and it is controlling to stop people watching it.I don’t think it’s exactly cheating unless it’s one of those wierd parasocial things like OF. I still think it’s bad for your brain and relationship for a lot of other reasons and it’s not unreasonable to ask. But if it becomes some major battle, just break up honestly. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 03:00 AM |
| 1 | Truth being friends with lots of girls may also be a negative. Especially if none of them are attracted to you.As a girl, I would probably guess they assumes you don’t wanna hangout with all chicks. That’s why I usually don’t introduce my male friends to my female friends. All my friends are rad. I just don’t want my guy friends to stand around while we drink tea and have girly talk. I have more girl friends and we all hangout in groups whereas when I hangout with my guy friends it’s usually one on one and we just talk about philosophy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 02:55 AM |
| 1 | Truth being friends with lots of girls may also be a negative. Especially if none of them are attracted to you.There’s a difference between being friends and being in a talking stage/having a crush. If you’re really, genuinely, just friends then it should not matter AT ALL what she thinks of your physical appearance. If you want to be more than friends, that’s a crush. Someone can be a crush and a friend, but if you cut her off after she rejects you, she was never really a friend of yours, she was just a crush. Friendship is about enjoying time together without romantic strings attached. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 02:52 AM |

I wouldn’t expect anyone to risk their life to save mine, but it would be a heroic act that I’d appreciate. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 02:44 AM |

| 1 | What conclusions should a guy make if he noticed women getting interested in him only after his major life milestones?C is not totally right. Money=status and security. Those are things that people are evolutionarily attracted to. Whether for better or worse. Some women are superficial but I don’t think considering wealth as a factor in attractiveness is necessary a bad thing. Maybe a woman wants to be a housewife and have a family, something that can’t happen if she doesn’t have a husband who can provide for the family on one income. Maybe she wants security, or for her kids to have a better life. Maybe she ma… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/09/24 02:16 AM |
| 0 | Women need to learn to be happy being used for sexI think women who continuously choose bad men or choose men who are obviously bad have issues to work on. But it bothers me when all discussion immediately removes blame from the man and attacks the woman for choosing him as if he’s a wild animal who can’t help it and she should have known better. Plus wrongfully trusting someone isn’t unethical, abusing someone is obviously unethical. Also, abusive people in general are manipulative. Some are blatantly abusive in early stages yet still attract … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/24 06:12 AM |
| 2 | Women need to learn to be happy being used for sexAlthough I wouldn’t call myself a victim of abuse, I’m definitely targeted by people who are questionable due to my pushover nature and shyness and I don’t think it’s something I should be blamed for. (I have unfortunately filed a restraining order against an ex who stalked and bullied me.) plus I’m going off of what I’ve heard from therapists about women ending up in toxic relationships. I’ve never done the thing either but as a woman I think I can imagine why others don’t wanna do that casuall… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/24 05:15 AM |
| 5 | Women need to learn to be happy being used for sexAs far as “choosing better” I think it’s a bit of an unfair argument. Nobody enters a relationship with someone they deem untrustworthy. Bad people tend to be manipulative and charming. If a woman continuously chooses bad men, then she should go to therapy to see if it’s the result of unresolved trauma and subconsciously seeking such men out. But I don’t think it’s her fault if a man is bad to her. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/24 04:44 AM |
| 21 | Women need to learn to be happy being used for sexSex is usually a more emotional experience for women. This has been studied before. Plus, I’d imagine that if you are a woman looking for a long term relationship, and a guy who seems trustworthy says he wants a long term relationship, but dips the second he gets in your pants, you’re gonna feel lied to, used, objectified and frustrated. Also sex is portrayed differently for men and women. You’re told that men “get to have sex” and women “allow sex to happen.” The woman’s body is often perceived… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/24 04:40 AM |
| 1 | Why do women expect men to...I think women tend to have high emotional/social intelligence plus they’re raised to be very attentive to the emotions of others, as a little girl it’s basically seen as your responsibility to ensure the happiness of those around you. At least in my experience, that was heavily expected of me. I think when a lot of women see a man who doesn’t pick up on emotional cues- they read it as “he knows, but he doesn’t care that I’m upset.” To them, such cues seem too obvious to miss, but men and women a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/24 05:19 AM |

| 1 | By evolutionary logic, we wouldn’t have evolved to be attracted to things about people that they can controlYup. Controllable factors don’t ensure the offspring will survive. Strength, status, intelligence, healthiness (which a lot of attraction is based on, healthier looking people look hotter) etc are all things that will increase the chance of offspring survival. Cool shoes aren’t going to do much for the offsprings survival. But that’s a very animalistic, baseline overview of attraction. There’s also personal preference, compatibility, and things that don’t have much to do with offspring at all th… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/09/24 07:44 PM |

Manipulation however? I have an issue with that. I don’t really gaf if it’s legal. Legal and moral are not the same thing and manipulating people into being your sex toys is pretty fuckin horrible. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/09/24 07:21 PM |

You can still love and trust your wife but want to be 1000% sure before you y’know- commit your life to raising a whole human being.

I’d say unattractive would probably be: poor hygiene, bad personality, bad teeth, severely overweight, bad taste in dress. I think pretty much any old guy can become a total catch by being intelligent, funny, well dressed, decently healthy (chub is cute, obesity is worrying), dressing well and practicing good hygiene. I prefer guys my height or taller (so 5’3+) but I’d date a shorter guy if we clicked. I personally think the hottest dude… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/24 05:27 AM |

| 7 | From a womans perspective, do you have a hierarchy of negative aspects to men?That’s why I’m so turned off by 3. Every housewife I’ve personally known has ended up with a full time job and doing all the housework. At family functions I overhear women say “he lost his job so I’ve been working full time but- he just won’t seek out a job or help with chores! He plays video games all day and night.” Time and time again. I just don’t want that fate. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/07/24 03:26 PM |

But is it so bad for me to want to not pursue that? I’ve always made allowances for peoples flaws which is why I’m willing to date someone with the others but I cannot be with someone who demands a lifestyle out of me that I know I am not compatible with. I don’t trust anybody enough to be my “provider”. I’ve seen it play out utterly horribly for the majority of women in my life.

It’s one of those traits vs 3. It’s also clarified that the drug use is not to a highly destructive extent. 3 clarifies that someone is not willing to change. It’s not about fucking sandwiches.

| 1 | There is nothing wrong with a man wanting 50/50 in a relationshipI’m friends with other introverts who don’t “put themselves out there.” Regardless, men don’t really throw themselves at women as much as the media would have you think. Young men seem pretty shy honestly. I’ve been approached before but never in a very straight forward way.

I don’t want to be a housewife, so I don’t expect a provider. I certainly don’t think women OWE men sex ever. But unfortunately, as a woman, in my experience, when you allow someone to do “kind” deeds for you, you often end up getting coerced, and violently threatened when you don’t wanna give “it” up.

| 1 | Why "just date someone from your social circle" is often poor advice for nerdy, socially awkward, sexless men and why cold-approaching as many women as possible is betterI think cold approaching can be good when done properly. As a woman I can tell you now that we do not want to be approached in any situation where we have to worry about safety. Don’t approach a woman in an unpopulated area when she’s alone. Approach women in populated areas when they are with female friends. This alleviates feelings of danger and if she thinks you’re cute you’ll probs get a # or some socials. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/07/24 05:28 AM |

| 1 | Men NEED sex. The use of prostitution should be normalized, legalized, and recommended for struggling men.I don’t believe the majority of prostitution is truly consensual because these women are often so poor that they feel trapped and forced into it. If men truly NEED sex- I’d argue that robots or some shiot would be infinitely better than making it women’s job to do. Sex work is an industry absolutely full of misogyny and extremely bad for women. Why are women always expected to solve men’s issues? And women are sexual creatures too.

In the vast majority of middle class families I’ve met- wife and husband both contribute 50% of household funds but wife does 100% of childcare, cooking, and cleaning. That’s just not fair- in reality that’s 25/75 because household labor is still work. True 50/50 means 50/50 funds, 50/50 childcare, 50/50 cooking and 50/50 cleaning.

| 1 | Male sexlessness should be taken about as seriously as the orgasm gap.I’m gonna have to disagree on this one. Nobody is entitled to sex. Because you only get to have it if it’s with a consenting adult who wants it as well. Demanding sex makes no sense because you can’t make people who are consenting appear out of thin air. It doesn’t work like that. If we categorize sex as a male right- that’s basically calling for forced sex. Because there’s literally no way to get every man access to consensual sex.

But lying is is an action that blurs the lines of what both parties can consent to. Which I believe is wrong. I agree it’s wrong to pretend to like a guy for gifts etc- but I will say this.

Cus men aren’t getting any hotter as they age either. I think saying anybody is worthless or unlovable just because they’re 30 is honestly disgusting. In my experience most people don’t even have a stable settled life and identity until their early 30s. Most young women don’t want older guys. I’ve had multiple guys tell me I’m gonna hit the wall in a few years and I’m not even 18. 😐 It’s borderline pedophilic. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/06/24 10:42 PM |

First of all, women attempt suicide 3-4 times more often than their male counterparts- but are less likely to be successful due to using less “violent” methods, resulting in higher death rates for men. So if we are using suicide statistics to gouge how much each gender struggles- then the answer is not remotely black and white. Men statistically commit the vast majority of crimes.

Also, I’m 5’3 and the guy was definitely shorter by one or more inches so I don’t think I was misreading the height. He was a very pretty boy so it’s not surprising.

| 6 | Men Shouldn't Feel Obligated to Rescue Women After Relationship BetrayalsI’d also like to point out. Men who try to land dates with recently heartbroken women by manipulation are setting themselves up to be rebounds. Isn’t that the same thing as women “choosing” to date men who are mean/abusive?

| 3 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)Yeah. Definitely had a lot of that :(( My lesbian friend was asked for a threesome when she was 13 out with a girlfriend. It surprised me when I started experiencing it because my area is known for being a good one. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:25 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I feel okay being friends with men. I’ve had a few bad experiences with cussing and aggression upon rejection but at least half of the guys I’ve been friends with have been nice and none have done me physical harm. I do feel fear around stranger men though. I never feared men until these experiences with catcalling and then learning how many of my friends have been SA’d. I appreciate your insight and your comment is validating. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:21 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)Thank you, I thought this sub would be unbiased since it’s purple- I figured it must have both feminists and MRAs | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:19 AM |
| 2 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)Thank you for your comment. My parents say the same. If anything my dad is actually more cautious, buying me pepper-spray and telling me to be aware of my surroundings. My mom got catcalled and harassed a lot growing up so she has a more “it’s not gonna kill you, get over it” attitude. Though she still encourages caution and after hearing about my friend’s recent SA she offers to drive me places so I don’t have to walk. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:18 AM |
| 2 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)Thank you for your insight. My dad said the same thing. I cant help but worry a bit though. I really don’t want to be bigoted, though I know some level of bias is normal in most people. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:16 AM |
| 2 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I appreciate your insight manly man. (I love ur caption lol) I definitely don’t think every man is a r*pist. I know 90% of guys r good people. It’s the fact that I don’t know who’s who. Like murder mystery. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:15 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I am in therapy for anxiety which probably contributes to the agoraphobia. I did also somewhat have a level of agoraphobia prior to being scared of men specially. I did homeschool for a large portion of my education. So that might be worth mentioning. The supermarket has become a specific fear of mine because I’m often catcalled. The fact that I only go twice a month and it’s a 10 minute walk, yet I have so many experiences that really really scared me so I feel like it’s very likely it will hap… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:14 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)If it is misandrist, I’m not sure how to fix it. It hasn’t impacted any of my relationships with men but I do feel scared of stranger men. I get catcalled about 1/3 of the times I go out. It feels icky. After so many of my friends have come forward as SA victims I’m not sure how to not feel scared around men I don’t know. Is it okay to be scared of specifically men I do not know or do you consider that misandrist? I know logically most of the men I interact with are good but because I can’t tell… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:11 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I am capable of dealing with strangers pretty well I think. I smile at everyone regardless of gender and since my job is a cashier, Ive learnt to maintain conversations pretty easily. I actually really love talking with this one particular dude who does doordash. I don’t feel anxious around him, especially since he’s mentioned having a daughter. I definitely do feel anxiety internally though, around men who I’ve never met. Mainly walking alone when others are not present because that’s mainly wh… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:08 AM |
| 1 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)My father tells me it’s rational and he encourages it because “men are almost always the aggressors and they’re biologically more aggressive”. So I guess that would make him bigoted too. He’s not a feminist and gets annoyed when men are stereotyped but he simultaneously encourages me to be more cautious around male strangers. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 04:02 AM |
| 3 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)It also might be worth mentioning I don’t feel this way around guys my age. Usually they’re shy and polite and mumble something about how I’m pretty and I find that flattering. The words of older men tend to be more dirty. Plus, I feel wierd when older guys are showing interest in me. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 03:57 AM |
| 3 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I suppose that’s true. It’s not really impacting anyone given I treat men and women the same. I still smile at everyone I don’t know regardless of gender and my pepperspray is hidden. I’m worried about the morality behind my thoughts though. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 03:53 AM |

| 4 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I am in therapy for anxiety and depression but I haven’t talked much about this specific topic much. The agoraphobia could be attributed to my anxiety. I feel it around socializing with men and women but I feel a bigger fear of being assaulted when it comes to men. I don’t think I have a bad impression of men as a whole but maybe I am not self aware. I think 90% are good people and my best friend is a guy, but I also think men have a greater capacity to harm me than women, being physically stron… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 03:48 AM |
| 2 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I don’t. I know 90% of the guys I run into are probably good people- but I can’t tell who’s who and it makes me scared :(( | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 03:26 AM |
| 3 | Is it “bigoted” to be afraid of men? (TW SA)I’m not worried about it impacting my relationships because I don’t feel like this at all around men I know. At least not ones I’m close to. My dad is actually the one who told me to always palm the pepper-spray especially after he found out what happened to my friend. He said it’s useless if you can’t reach it fast. I know I might be a bit extreme but it’s hard because I have an experience that scares me around 2x a month and given I only go on 20 minute walks 2-5x a month (outside of my job) I… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/05/24 03:24 AM |

| 0 | Why do non-religious people care about marriage?I think it’s an act of commitment. If you’re going to be lifelong partners, may as well. Since divorce is so much hassle- I see it as a “I plan to stay with you” because nobody plans to get divorced. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/05/24 01:52 AM |
