Neither the left or the right are offering childfree PEOPLE much of anything. There is penalization through taxation and social pressures when people choose to be childfree or are childless. There are no specific safety nets for men or women who have no children.

I simply have no interest in that line of work.

Yes. Some women bring drama and stress to their partners. Everyone is human here, no one is without flaws.
/r/PurplePillDebate03/12/25 04:47 PM

This again? Attraction in conjunction with other preferences is what makes a woman choose to be with a partner. It is what it is. You want to call it shallow? Fine. No one is hurt by this opinion. It truly stops nothing. No one should be shamed into forcing themselves to be with a person they don't want or like. This is the most simplistic thing - yet seems to be an enigma in this sub. Is the real point of this repetitive comment to insist that men are more altruistic in this regard? Ok, insist …

Your original statement in no way noted the age bracket of the Black women you're making blanket statements about. Stereotypical tropes ABOUT Black women discuss them as being sexually active and having babies in their teens. So I provide you information encompassing teen years up to 50, and, to you, that's erroneous and incomplete because it doesn't follow that single 15 year old until she is 50? Sir, you're reaching.

No. I was asking you to posit why you benched a whole group of women who are a part of the demographic you were discussing. Which skews the perception of the whole group in negative stereotypical terms. Which promotes "baby momma" tropes that are diminishing within the demographic.

A stereotypical perspective - not an example. So you're speaking to the majority, not the minority - while making sweeping assertions that ignore factual data and shifting procreation and dating patterns. Why is the onus on me to provide these stats? Women's Fertility by Ethnic Group Black Demographic Fertility Data

There are many childfree and childless women in the Black Community as well. There are also Black women who choose not to have children until they are secure in their marriages and trust their husbands to be involved in child rearing. These groups of women don't seem to factor into your perspective. Also, there are conservative Black women who also choose their partners based on attraction, financial stability, mental health, etc... They, too, are looking for high value partners they are attract…

I'm simply alerting you to the facts of the Teaborn apps existence, its reported substance, and its creators thoughts on its usage before it was shut down. As for Tea, I've no idea what's being displayed on the app. I'm neither a member nor been privy to any empirical data disclosing information from there. What emotional response are you looking for from me when my previous statement was only imbued with discoverable facts?

I'm happy to know that. However, your statement that this doxxing is a justified form of accountability ultimately implies the opposite. Someone's license, address, and location being made available to an angry group of people isn't accountability. It's a recipe for violence, danger, and possible death. Nor is it true accountability. It's simple revenge.
/r/PurplePillDebate02/08/25 10:58 AM

So, accountability to you means they deserve to be traceable, and whatever life-threatening thing that happens to them is justified - because they used an app that gossiped about men?

Sigh There was one already. It was done in by the creators because it was flooded with nudes and revenge p●rn. And before you ask... no. I've never been on the tea app. I've no reason to be there.

But they did have a male version. It was called the Teaborn app. And it was full of all of those things.... as well as nudes photos, videos, and other personal information about women. Where is it now? It was shut down by the male creators with a notice that "Men need to do better" - their quote, not mine, scrap with them about it. And you're absolutely correct. Revenge p●rn doesn't sit well with women, some of the men on the app, or the creators who closed up shop.

There are people who spew vitriol over ANY choice you make that is outside of what they deem moral, correct, or acceptable. Your gender doesn't exclude anyone from criticisms, opinion pieces, or becoming political fodder.

There are women opting out out of dating. The vitriol is still present. The argument becomes " she is depriving some man of his opportunity for love, sex, a relationship, and children." Or "her standards are too high, and she only wants the top tier men." There is always a grievance whether a woman chooses to date or not.

Are those men then going to assume the role of sole custody from birth? I mean, as soon as the umbilical cord is cut, so is her participation and responsibility beyond a child support check. If he is going to be the sole parent and provide all of the childcare, with no participation from the woman beyond child support... including no visitation, no photos, no phone calls, or any other engagement with the child or that man... then some women might be ok with your perspective.

Sell off my merch biz and fold 62% of it into my Roth IRA in preparation for retirement. Then, using my sewing & tailoring skills, take commissions for bespoke suits, dresses, and other garments at my leisure. I'll enjoy the fruits of my frenzied youthful labors. Should a gentleman of similar means and capability provoke interest in me - then so be it. But, at this time, I'm quite enjoying my own company, provisions, abilities, and joy.

My guy. I skipped my motorcade over the tire borders, down the grassy hill, and into a fence on a driving course at the amusement park. All the people waiting in line saw me... and laughed. The ride operators put me BACK on the course and made me finish it... in tears. I have NEVER gotten behind the wheel again.

They believe they are giving you real actionable advice, though. Their take is to proactively get ahead of the things you can change that might improve your chances. But no one can make a 100% guarantee on this advice. Not a guarantee that you'll be successful, nor that the woman you do attract is a good match for you - or that YOU feel attracted to her. People could accept that you feel your face is undesirable - but no one who knows you wants to hurt you like that. They don't want you to feel …

You simply can not be serious. Women are told to be fun, exciting, docile, agreeable, feminine, flirty, submissive, and a whole host of other things to not only get a man's attention but to also retain it. This isn't a hit out on men's mental state. It's the same ish women hear as well. Everyone is told to be better than they are. To improve on their abilities or lack thereof.
/r/PurplePillDebate06/04/25 12:46 PM

The question being asked here is what do you want the world to do about it? If the advice given isn't what lonely men want to hear, don't agree with, have already been done, or are unwilling to address within themselves... what is the expectation? What are these lonely men really expecting when they are telling women they are unable to get dates? Would you agree that the expectation is for an actionable resolution?

I get it. Having a job/career while in school for your PhD. isn't for the faint of heart. And it definitely doesn't lend itself to a full-bodied, available when you are romantic relationship. You're absolutely correct. However! That crunch time isn't forever. She, like you, has professional goals. When she has achieved those goals, they shouldn't be dismissed as insignificant.

And yet, many of my contemporaries work full time, have actively paid down or off their student debt, have diverse streams of revenue, and all with families. There are women with laudable education and professional growth who don't approach the world with entitlement. Whose husband isn't browbeaten or beleaguered. This stereotype is completely out of control.

I can definitely understand not being able to suffer the personality of an individual. Whether or not it's because of their work ethic and professional drive remains to be seen through observation. However, many men don't want to bother with that... so they go another route and look for companionship from women who embody a different lifestyle. It's their choice.
/r/PurplePillDebate03/04/25 09:24 PM

True... but I couldn't imagine too many people being attracted to someone who tells them all of the education and growth they've achieved means nothing. That their life should only be valued by what another deemed as important.

That's true. Some women won't. Remove yourself from their company. The ones that are dismissive of your goals and abilities aren't worth the effort of trying to convince them of how it would be beneficial to you both. Your achievements aren't insignificant.

It's not so much about bringing something you don't care about to your attention - it's about how it's dismissed as insignificant and unimportant. That person is relaying how they strived to complete the qualifications to hold their degree or position.

Character growth and skills are also being related when discussing career, professional growth, and educational ability. They also are talking about …

Hilariously fraught with self-importance. I simply don't care what your opinion is of my childfree stance. Nor does it bother me that nameless and faceless individuals waste time contemplating my life decisions. Its minutes and hours they'll never get back. And good for her!

They dismiss her achievements, goals, and aspirations as trifles while still demanding an answer for what she brings to the …

On the "interesting hobbies" side of things... I'll just say this.... in EVERY sartorial space, class, event, or meet-up I've ever attended - the men were quite literally inundated with attention. We could see that these men were VERY much into the craft.... and that was their purpose for being there.

You are utterly mistaken. This is why it's important to look at data not by bias - but by objectivity.

No. Her personal anecdotal case informs how she sees the potential man/ men who wishes to have a relationship with her.

Are these not already the norm? Strong political rhetoric for monogamous partnering and offspring are screamed from the White House to the coal mine. It's not that monogamy isn't the cultural norm - it's that many people don't want to get married at all. From most individual observable and anecdotal data, it reads as a zero sum pursuit. The math is not a mystery anymore. We can see that the geometry is thrown off. It's like flat pattern drafting and cutting for a tailored shirt. Everything can b…

Not particularly. I'm well aware that a cocobutter slathered Mr. Tilney has never existed in my lifetime - nor will he. My preference isn't that my partner be rich or have access to a profession that sees him making more than me. His ability to care for HIMSELF is what I'm after when I ask about employment. Is he actually taking care of his own needs while between relationships, or is he in stasis until the next woman comes along. I don't give a damn if a man is tall... the man I loved with all …

If it's a choice it means that the person know she can have one if she wants, her self steem is already increased by this fact alone The crux of this opinion is that it leans heavily on the idea that sex (and how many people desire you for it) is the only 'achievement' in which validation and self-esteem are built.

It's not improbable. There are individuals who will not sacrifice their sense of self-worth or peace just for sex. They choose to abstain.

Whilst I can not say who these 'feminists' are... they've not been very successful as there are exclusively male shelters for men. Homeless as well as for male domestic violence victims. I've linked some here just last week. To add to it, I also linked mental health consultants for men only... though availability is never a guarantee. deny that many accusations are false? With all of the conversations popping …

Can we just take a moment to truly reflect on female circumcision and the true reason why most MEN wanted it eradicated? The clit is a delightful ball of sensitive nerve endings that send most women into ecstasy when it's fondled just right. If that's snipped off... what woman, especially those who've never been able to climax through PIV stimulation, is going to want to have and be ENTHUSIASTIC for sex? Hmmm? There is already a complaint from men in different stages of relationships who began d…

That's a peeve of mine. I simply can not overlook this in terms of marriage prospects. It would make me begin to get angry and resent him for the state of our space if he can not help maintain the cleanliness of our home.

The issue being debated is that women want MORE than just money. That 'protect & provide' isn't the end all be all for selection... compatibility has entered the picture. If it's true that women only want to marry for income then we need to tax single women under 40 at a super high rate. For what? Tax someone because they're aiming for marriage with a fiscally responsible person? Many of these women are fiscally responsible as well and seeking their match. No one wants to entrust their funds and…

His sentiments were not the ravings of a lone madman. It's only one published work. There are various news clippings with men, photos posted, and expressing the same ideals. There seems to be some push to position selectivity as an unprecedented modern male affliction. Empirically, it simply isn't. There are even private letters that have been published illustrating selectivity even in early 1900.

Sir, let me reference the 1945 published text of one Thomas D. Horton on the topic of "What Men Don't Like About Women." Right in the table of Contents, you will find guidance to the chapter on 'Their unreasonable expectations,Their unfair sex practices...and more'. Once financial emancipation was imminent for most middling class women, selection criteria for a life partner became more than just protect and provide. The poorer class women always had industry, though underpaid and overworked. Poo…

I've no idea what to tell you. I've never run into a woman whose only criteria for decency are looks, height, and money. Not even once. Even the peers who were struck by appearance have expectations of mental, emotional prowess, and a desire to have a match based on compatibility and love. However, behavioral affectation sucks for both parties. Pretending to be someone or something you aren't is taxing and mentally wearing. It's a betrayal of self. The person you're posing for may begin to see t…

It's the "decent" which brings nuance. Your understanding of decency may just be P&P (protect & provide), which may not be the desire of the person you wish to be desirable to. P&P is nice... but who are YOU? What are your goals, aspirations, hobbies, dreams, etc. How are you with your family, friends, and children? What brings you joy and drives you? What does your attachment style look like? Do you have affection/affectation anxieties? What does emotional investment look like to you - and how …

He proposed, and everything was set ... and then his life fell apart. He lost his job and began having issues with his ex-wife, which resulted in missed time with the children.

Women can not give a collective answer on whether or not penis size matters to all women. We can only answer from the experiences and/or commentary from peers. While length may not factor, the girth just might. Average and thick may hit so well for some women, while others may not enjoy the "fully stuffed" feeling. Long and narrow may bump into the cervix area and miss the nerve endings along the vaginal wall. "The motion in the ocean" response may allude to that as well. That the girth is where…

Someone has now told you a truth that supports the running theme: "looks open the door but personality keeps you there" And you're now dissatisfied with someone's (or various individuals) expressed honesty because you believe it still sets YOU outside of the dating sphere. That…

My one question is, why do men need to always adapt and change, however, women are considered fine out of the box? Women, most times, are not considered "fine out of the box." There is social, emotional, and familiar performance pressures that many women are burdened with. Some mothers withhold food from their children (but as I'm talking about women, I'll just reference them from here.) I've personally heard from at least 13 mothers I've had as clients explain to me that one ice cube of food is…

I don't care WHAT a man looks like. I don't want any children. Period. I'm the eldest daughter.

I know this isn't the thread for this, but it does raise the question; I wonder if these personal choices... childfree, no smoking, drinking, drug use, her own sexual inexperience insecurities, etc... could be misinterpreted by men as not 6ft, 6 figure, attractive, so denied?

Every woman has always known she will be seen as a less desirable option for a potential mate if she became a single mother. Also, if she chooses not to be a mother at all. There was only one accepted model for child bearing and rearing.

As a childfree by choice and childless woman, I agree with his message. I, too, see zero reasons for me to seek a relationship with a man who has children. I don't see that as misogyny. It's more like his individual choice and his right to act upon it. His expectations and experiences are valid, and he has the right not to choose women who don't appeal to him.

There are gray areas. Not just an either or. There are plenty of upwardly mobile well-adjusted men... who are attractive or average - and I'm still simply not interested.

The desire for or the lack of desire equals inflated ego is intoned in your writing. It intimates that if she found you attractive than the outcome would be date/sex/relationship. It does not account for personal choice outside of ego and attraction. It alludes to your belief that because you've been turned down, you must have been found undesirable in her eyes. Many times, there are more factors at play in those interactions that are beyond desire and attraction. It isn't simple addition all of…

People have the ability to recognize someone as attractive... and not want to drop trou for them. Not every person, male or female, is frothing at the mouth every time they see someone who looks attractive. Not everyone is itching to jump into the sheets just because someone looks nice... let alone dive head first into a relationship for that superficial reason.

Purpose and worth do not have to come from a romantic relationship so why is there not more of an effort to focus on building and maintaining friendships?

I understand. I'm late 30's and have been taking the temperature of the new dating "class" I'm in now. I'm sterile now due to huge tumors I've had removed Wednesday. Although I'm not looking to get into dating right now, I do wonder what people think on the topic. No, I have no children as I've always been childfree.

Thanks for answering. I definitely respect your desire for children with a loving marriage to a like-minded person. May I ask, what would be your approach if the person you're dating and preparing to marry reveals they are childfree? Fear of losing the relationship, not being seen as a viable person to you, or fear of upsetting the accepted social norms has kept them on the fence until now. How would you address this person who now has realized they absolutely aren't prepared for children?

Cool. Thanks for answering. Have you found that that dating pool has upheld those notions of childfree and marriage free when in serious relationships? I know many childfree men and women are crushed when their partner changes their mind and then wants to have children - with them. May I ask what your experiences have been?

Thank you for answering so thoughtfully. May I ask some follow ups? May I ask your age? I think age has a lot to do with acceptance of a childfree life or childfree people. Would you be ok if your partner was sterile or asked you to be sterilized? If not, May I ask why?

People are shallow. Your looks can be a gateway to conversation, dating, love, sex, and relationships.

I did actually. It's not Wars he nudges me to watch... it's an old Irish sitcom called Father Ted. I do not see the humor that he finds in it... but the way it hits for him is adorable. Are we absolutely perfect? Not by a long shot. We disagree on things, have times where we go to our respective spaces... him to his man cave or me to my office. Sometimes I have to bring out the aegyo to convince him to try events and activities outside of his purview. And I find ways to please him daily... and h…

To meet someone compatible to me and enjoy their company? A fairytale? Then I must have been extremely fortunate... because at 36 I met my dork.

I thoroughly enjoy being with him. I promptly wrapped myself around his legs and refuse to let go.🤣 We have our days... lemme tell you. There is nothing perfect about us... we are…

Forgive me. I did not know. This is a exception. It's ok. A bit of a sore subject for me, so I apologize if I came across as upset. Well I did not know that you didn't have casual sex. When you said you didn't date seriously, I figured any possible sex would have actually been more casual. Miscommunication there, sorry. Yes, I can see how this statement would have led to a miscommunication. I didn't date seriously because... I never wanted to date anyone at the time. I was too preoccupied with a…

I don't have any children, nor am I a person that practiced casual sex. And I wouldn't have made long term plans for children because I cannot have them. As to marriage or serious feelings; YES it does align with MY prospects as the only children I'd be able to have would be adopted. MEANING, I'd have to factor seriousness of dating and marriage and how HE would feel about adoption.

It wasn't until I reached 34 that I even thought about marriage or dating with any real seriousness. Children were never a part of my long term plans, so it didn't factor into my choices.

How would you go about solving it? Because honestly, people have to be OPEN to help to recieve it and benefit from it. And when I say help... that doesn't mean giving them what they want.

IF you believe that no one wants to be with you... then yes, your belief is that you're then undesirable.

Precisely this! They are rapidly distancing themselves from any possibility of affection or sexual attachment from women.

I've never even entertained sleeping with someone on the first, second or even fifth date. 🤷🏿‍♀️ but that's me and other women who operate in the same manner. As for whether or not a woman sleeps with the attractive guy quicker than the average guy; SO WHAT!?! It's literally HER right to choose who she shares her body with... same as…

Um, ok so the women said that the muscle men are cute. Ok. Cool. Isn't the argument that the men who are feeling disenfranchised wish for LTRs? None of the oohs and ahhs of physical appreciation in your anecdote is indicating an LTR followed with the muscled guys. Also, the anecdote of the silent friend again isn't indicative of the "goals" of the disenfranchised men. She is literally regularly pack multiple hookups in a single day. Not someone who at this time is even interested in a LTR. Now, …

Um. From a man's perspective he is observing what another group is doing. His observations and conversations on the matter lead him to generalize the whole of said group. When a woman is being asked about the group she is in, she is responding with information gathered through her ingroup experiences... including her own. Thus, due to the differences in the women's individual desires, wants, and needs; she is able to give a more varied and nuanced answer. Things from the outside always looks dif…

More like I'm not a licensed therapist for someone who needs to unlock the reasons behind their self-esteem issue. Nor is it encumbant upon me to take on someone else's mental health issues... and I'm not even in a relationship with them.

Just because YOU believe that these particular men are "a good option" ...doesn't mean they are to the WOMAN they are wishing to date. Her objectives could be completely different. Her values, goals, and aspirations may not align with his or his TIMELINE might be quicker or slower than hers. She may not be ready for anything that he is offering at this time. Just because someone may be a good option (subjectively) doesn't mean that the woman is even equipped to be a good partner at this time. Sh…

What I just described is the social framework that has always been in play in America's capitalistic Dynasty. Hegemonic Masculinity was always a thing even in 1901... which is why the social education was that men were to go to work, and women were to provide a warm, rejuvenating Oasis for him to return home to. So that he could recoup from the day and return to his wage stable. The name was later coined as HM in sociology... however, it has always been present. As time has marched on, the gap b…

The anecdote you've just shared is classic Hegemonic Masculinity and Late Capitalism. You've described unequitable dividends and aggrieved entitlement. This sociological theory (deriving from men in philosophy and psychology) is what BEGETS or gives birth to these Pill theories. A quick cap of the theory; Hegemonic Masculinity: The practice of teaching what Masculinity looks like... and what you will gain if you can successfully embody it. So, work hard, remain stoic, don't complain, sacrifice y…

Hello. I'd most definitely have to disagree that with your assessment that women only advocate for Men's right if it directly effects her. There are NUMEROUS women in various spaces who have spoken quite eloquently on gender equality and the concerns of men. The issue is that these women aren't just speaking to other women about their views... but also men. Yes, I know that MRA doesn't like to hear that... but it most assuredly takes place. Last evening the discussion turned to the egregious SA …

I LOVE that! It means that communication usurps misunderstandings and silent hurt feelings. Makes the relationship stronger and more resilient. I definitely try to work on that within myself as well. I'm not the type to complain, I just kind of... handle the things I can handle and plot against what I can't. It took him sitting me down and talk to me for me to realize that it was ME who wasn't being open with my day to day struggles. I wasn't sharing with him. I'm much better at it now... althou…

I believe that Shawn should begin to observe her behaviors a ND check the validity of her new stance on sexual engagement and how it effects a relationship.

There is a difference between needing and wanting to be with someone. I have to say that being wanted means so much more... feels so much more significant than having some need you. Someone who is simply reliant upon you for their own good. Now yes, I believe that even in a relationship where the couple wants each other , that duty and work is to be expected. That even if you don't feel like it... doing things that make your partner happy... makes you happy. Who wants to wake up and make their p…

DnD spaces aren't always the mecca of compatability for nerds, dorks, freaks, and geeks. Same as in other spaces, social emotional prowess, ideologies, values, morals, responsibilities, drive, and our end goals may differ.

Mostly, because I'm not given that opportunity. It is assumed I am those things and they keep on walking. Then when/if they have a chance to observe me... either in my career or in my daily routines I'm told; " Oh, you're adorable and so well spoken. You're not like the other ones. you're different."

Dating. My preferences are for a fellow geek or dork. Someone who I can speak to and who understands my references. I'm talking weird science, LOTR, Neverending story type geekdom.

I will agree that some women are choosing to remain single. They may already SEE that the men within their community are utilizing some of the more 'modern' and casual dating practices and wish to take no part. Or the men that embody the values they are looking for... have already found their match and are now married. Some women have never ever signed up to online dating and STILL are unable to gain a relationship that reflect like values, morals, respect, and love. For some reason, this demogr…

If a man speaks out about not having sex, he is a incel. If a man speaks out about penis size, he must have a small dick. If a man speaks out about having no friends, he must be a weirdo. Ok.

How much initiative programs or resolutions are women expected to head? Can we take a moment and look at these 3 male concerns? Let'…

This should also apply to men who suffer peyronies, Balanitis, priapism, lymphatic filariasis (effects the genitals as well) Inguinal hernias, hematocele, and spermatocele.

No. Most women do not hate men.

I find it very disappointing and discouraging that the misandry or demeaning done by some women affect outcomes for others.

Some women have even left the U.S. and moved to S. Korea in the hopes of meeting such men. It's sad that those who wish to BE comfortable and emotive cannot find the women who are supporti…

I say that it isn't a bad idea at all. It gives peace of mind to the anxious father and solidifies the bond between the parents and the child. A verified unit. It also keeps everyone accountable for actions. If the child isn't the man's, he shouldn't be held responsible for that child [Unless he voluntarily decides to]. Verification isn't a bad thing within a relationship/partnership. It can actually reinforce and strengthen trust. 🤷🏿‍♀️ Go for it.

I'm sorry that seems to be the norm in social settings with the women in your area. I've yet to have a woman in MY set or age bracket that operates on his wages being what sets him apart as a "good man".

Their pleasure in their partners usually stem from their personalities, silliness, or an understanding between them. The women I associate with have more mature values they seek. There are mature wo…

Both terms are subjective to be honest. What constitutes a "good woman" or "good man" can vary between individuals or even socioeconomic backgrounds. And no, ALL women are not virtuous. This is a widely known and accepted fact simply based on the plethora of laws intending to keep women from doing "unvirtuous" things. As to what is considered a "good man" being appeasing to the inferred monolith of "Women"; it really isn't. You see, even in 2022 [SOME] men still believe that "I protect and provi…
