–	"Provider men" content is deeply infantilizing to women and misogynistic You're entirely correct - These view are deeply patriarchal. And you've stumbled upon something quite intriguing. These people build their ideas on patriarchy, on the women as passive, and the male as active and agentic. It's essentially framed through the lens of female passivity; inactivity; and, to use Simone De Beauvoir's term, immanence - With men as the "transcendental God" whom is beyond women's comprehension, taking on the role of a Messiah figure bringing his gifts upon the passive and …	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/10/25 06:30 AM
3	Men are cooked, new study shows men are the ones with the biological clock, not women. This study was specifically misinterpreted by people - The study does not show what you just claimed, that's these video's misreading of the study proper. It does show men's fertility decline with age - But that's not exactly "new" finding. As for the claim that it shows women's fertility don't decline with age, that is not what the study shows whatsoever.	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/10/25 04:19 AM
2	Women tend to be all about mental health awareness, yet practice a zero tolerance policy for socially awkward men What did the man even say - Seems to have been deleted faster than I could see it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/10/25 10:01 PM
15	Women tend to be all about mental health awareness, yet practice a zero tolerance policy for socially awkward men Approaching and being rejected isn't the problem. That's literally made clear in the first few lines: "nothing gets a guy socially ostracized quicker than fumbling a woman" - Again, this is obviously not a question about being rejected, but the consequence of being rejected being more than merely the rejection itself.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/10/25 10:15 PM
16	Women tend to be all about mental health awareness, yet practice a zero tolerance policy for socially awkward men The question isn't about dating - but about tolerating. You've clearly not understood what was being said.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/10/25 04:49 PM
–	Women are not repulsed by men opening up about their feelings, they're repulsed by incompetence So in another word, unarmed is correct. If "opening up about feelings" is exclusively down to the recipients subjective preferences on "how," then you don't want men to open up, because to "open up" is to do so on your own terms. You're literally contradicting yourself.	/r/PurplePillDebate	07/10/25 05:58 AM
–	Men, do you REALLY know when a woman is not attracted to you? To be fair, smiling has generally been linked to subtle cues of interest in the scientific literature beyond mere social expectations. For instance, Kat Oak in their article on Terrence G. Horgan and his work on human nonverbal communication and romantic initiation writes: "Laypeople are inclined to think that men express sexual interest first. However, research shows otherwise: Women tend to send nonverbal cues of interest to a particular man (eye contact, smiles), permitting him to approach" (…	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/10/25 01:49 PM
–	Men, do you REALLY know when a woman is not attracted to you? This would require that we knew when women are attracted to us. "Not attracted" can take a diverse shape, from disgust to apathy. The problem with dating as a man is that women signal interest through actions that permits plausible deniability. It's in effect impossible to be 100% certain that a girl is interested, even though you may be 80% sure. This is one reason why you see men hitting on women above their league. Firstly, because women are relegated the passive role, men are expected to tak…	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/10/25 01:22 PM

1	Men are dumb and vote against their economic interest for some perceived macho reason I don't know if I'd necessarily accept that - It might appear that way, but given that woman can be intimate with several people, there may only be a situational zero-sum, but we've not yet got any necessarily reason to suppose its universality. Fyi, I am not saying you're wrong per. say. I am saying the claim lacks rigorousness before we can accepts its validity.	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/10/25 11:56 AM
1	Men are dumb and vote against their economic interest for some perceived macho reason Depends what we mean by "zero-sum game." For instance, if all women just have flings, there's no necessary reason why every man can't be with every woman. In a word, an alternative variable has to explain the inequality. Hypergamy models - which is the one i assume you're using - lacks causal evidence, though it does benefit from correlation. The problem are matters of reverse causation and confounding variables. For instance, it might not be that women has a preference for men's wealth, but tha…	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/10/25 11:12 AM
4	Men are dumb and vote against their economic interest for some perceived macho reason That definition would generally qualify as irrational within the context we're working - That's the concern here. What you defined is more comparable to Bryan Caplan's so-called "rational irrationality," where the utility from an opinion exceeds the perceived costs of its consequence. For instance, historically, women were more antiabortion than men. By rational, we typically discern interests which are exclusively material in nature - Marginal utility in relation to one's current predicament. T…	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/10/25 10:39 AM

12	We are being psyoped into caring about declining birth rates. It should, but doesn't. I'd argue it's largely an outcome of the detachment between production and consumption; we see money as somehow having intrinsic value because we only experience money as having intrinsic value - Same experience with products and their intersection with money. To a consumer, it's a relation of money and commodity, whereas in reality it's a relation of consumption and production. Or, said otherwise, demand and supply.	/r/PurplePillDebate	28/08/25 12:13 AM
9	We are being psyoped into caring about declining birth rates. Rich people are generally cash poor. They don't have money. They have assets. Also, most rich people don't really "own" the company, they own a share in the company. The difference is fairly substantial. Most of those graphs of "see, big companies own so much!!!" don't account for shares in those companies have - Usually around 5-10 % - and entirely ignore the stakes other firms and funds has, such as pension funds. Who, as institutional investors, make up a substantial part of the economy today…	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/08/25 11:56 PM
22	We are being psyoped into caring about declining birth rates. "We need money" - Incorrect, we need resources. Money in itself is practically worthless. Money only have value insofar it's associated with a product. In a word, only as a means of exchange. And taking away money from producers wont increase the quantity of resources, it'll reduce it. If there's more money but fewer products, you run into one of two outcomes: Prices increase, because more money means people can and do buy more, so higher prices mediate the demand relative to available supply by…	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/08/25 11:52 PM
3	We are being psyoped into caring about declining birth rates. Because tax rates can't be uniformly put unto people on the top - The laffer-curve generally indicate there's an optimal tax rate in reference to top-bracket. And especially in Europe, we have a more dynamic interaction with other types of taxes like corporate taxation; vat-taxes; property taxes; inheritance taxes etc., Which reduces the benefits of a tax-increase. For instance, Jacob Lundberg from Uppsala University in Sweden found that while some countries can still benefit in terms of governm…	/r/PurplePillDebate	27/08/25 11:46 PM
1	Apparently women expect men to read their minds A lot of it comes down to socialization. Women are socialized to be more aware of subtle social cues, whereas men aren't. The outcome is that women presuppose men are purposefully ignoring those cues. Likely why we see the word "narcissist" being thrown around 24/7 by women against men, because if you don't understand my "totally visible body language" that mean's your gaslighting. This is also why being an autistic women sucks. Women will tear you down if you're an autistic women, whereas as a …	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/08/25 10:47 AM
2	Men's love is highly conditional While it's obviously not as simple, there's definitely a disproportionate bias in women's favor in terms of affection* and desire. Specifically, within social science we know it as "women are wonderful effect" and it explains a sort of effect where there's a preliminary moral bias in favor of women. I'd definitely treat the claim as a hyperbole, however. But on its own it's definitely incorrect. I do think the irony here is the manosphere's tendency to essentialize these qualities as if they're …	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/08/25 10:13 AM

5	The fixation on “purity” in women is often rooted in male insecurity, not morality. The irony here is that, In fact, the behavior OP is talking about, women generally does more than men.	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/25 02:40 PM
4	The fixation on “purity” in women is often rooted in male insecurity, not morality. One doesn't exclude the other - Furthermore, it may also just be legitimate preference. If I want to be with someone "special," I can see why people would prefer not being relegated "number 5" instead of being the "first and one." Also, the notion that this is a "male thing" is fairly reductive, I've been in plenty of relationships were girls got insecure knowing I had an ex. So why is it only an insecurity when men do it? The difference here is just that men says it upfront. A Norwegian study f…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/25 02:32 PM

6	Reddit women are a minority the basic "normie" girl is pretty darn patriarchal Doesn't really matter - In general women on some level prefer men who align with certain degrees of masculine traits, irrespective of stated progressivity. Studies such as "Benevolent Sexism and Mate Preferences" found that women on average prefer men who align with patriarchal values towards women (Specifically the male guardian model; also known as benevolent sexism) - and this is controlling for self-declared progressivity.	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/07/25 11:47 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Right - Funny, that's some of the girls I've also dated. So why is it you're the only one with these problems, but not me? Sounds fishy. Nobody is saying your experience isn't real, what's being said is that your "red pill" is exclusive to your own experience. It doesn't make it universal nor universally or generally valid. It's your experience, you're the only common denominator in it. You can't make any meaningful deduction from it outside of the fact that you are the only common denominator.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:32 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Aren't men supposed to be logical?	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:29 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Don't know if things that are validated with evidence is "blue pill garbage." Pretty much everything I've said is what "redpillers" keep on saying to women. Yet, as soon as we realize that goes both ways, you start crumbling. Why? Fact is, it's true. You just don't like to admit it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:18 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? That's a scientific fact, actually. We generally attract people who are similar to ourselves. Very obvious why as well. We go to areas where similar people go; we have similar hobbies as people like ourselves etc., What exactly am i projecting?	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:14 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? You get to pick someone who will treat you with respect, so that's not even true. Maybe instead of laying down and taking every blow, be a man and breakup with the toxic ones?	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:12 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Might say more about you than you expect then. As when every guy a woman has is bad, if every woman you have is bad, might just tell us something about yourself. It's not opposites that's attract, but complementaries.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 05:11 PM
1	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Pretty much. I'd say, parts of it is probably real - Though, dating low income, high narcissist party girls is probably going to get your the results Macro is complaining about. Fortunately when I see those girls I get a massive male-equivalent of the ick, so I don't touch them with a 5 feet-long pole.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 11:39 AM
2	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? No. I'm explaining a scenario I've experienced and you're taking it personally. No woman does this. I've dated women who were 8 years older than me and had a substantially higher income than me, nowhere was i shamed or kept down. If anything, I was still the dominant party in the relationship. I've also dated women my age who had a job while I was an unemployed student, I was still the dominant party.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 11:35 AM
5	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? Where'd anyone talk about disrespect? You're literally making up narratives in your mind. How is a woman having a higher income than you equal to disrespect? I'm sorry, but is your ego that fragile that someone having more money is equal to insulting you?	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 11:33 AM
2	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? If you feel less like a man because she earns more than you - That's definition of insecurity, sorry to say. If your manliness is tied up to your income, you're honestly not much of a man to begin with. If not? Then it shouldn't matter if she's wealthier than you.	/r/PurplePillDebate	25/04/25 12:06 AM
6	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? The reasoning is "why" they didn't want to - And most of it very obviously comes down to insecurity. Not wanting to date someone because of their income because it makes him feel "less manly" just reeks of insecurity.	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/04/25 09:32 PM
5	Is It that Men are Intimidated by Successful Women, or is it the Fact Successful Women Tend to Be Agressive? One doesn't exclude the other. I've met plenty of men who are intimidated by successful women. Who convey in private that they'd "never date" a woman with a higher income than them. I've also met plenty of women who are successful and unneedy aggressive, walking "princesses" who want everything while also basically having everything. An old friend of mine was like this.	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/04/25 09:03 PM
1	Why is it so hard to make female friends? Sadly, even if that's what the social cue indicates within cultural norms, a lot of women, and some men, these days has collectively decided that social norms don't apply to them. Only personal subjective preferences and viewpoints. You're left second-guessing here. Apparently even as a woman. I largely blame covid lockdown for worsening this - People has become socially inept following isolation.	/r/PurplePillDebate	24/04/25 05:20 PM
1	Both sexes experience privileges that the other sex does not. While I do appreciate the attempted nuance. There's an error in presenting the gender-wage gap this way. I'm not faulting you for it, given it's often taken axiomatically by journalists and the cultural elite, but the entire gender-wage gap thing can be explained away by productivity differences; bargaining style and reservation wage differences between men and women. Substantial evidence already put doubt on the discrimination hypothesis itself. I had planned on giving an entire presentation, b…	/r/PurplePillDebate	05/04/25 12:11 AM

9	Part of the growing divide between men and women comes from the idea that men should silently accept misandry as justified payback for patriarchy Aye - Intersectional feminists has been fighting against these forces for a while. While I'd definitely call the work flawed in a variety of ways, Amia Srinivasan's "right to sex" demonstrate how privilegie white women utilize feminism as a way to accrue power at the expense of non-white women and men. Richard Reeves also proves how modern societies are structured in a way that comes at expense of men - Racism is specifically gendered against men, it's as much structural racism as it's structura…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/04/25 04:14 PM

1	As a man, "decentering" women is one of the best things you can do for yourself I realized this after a series of situationships. Women just aren't that special. There's nothing special about any of them - Only a few can arouse any feeling in me, with no obvious reason for why one makes me fall for them vs. another. I didn't care for majority of them. I realized that once I've dated one, I've practically dated them all.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/04/25 11:05 PM

Of course men's "low standards" are in part a cause for these issues, it helps reinforce it, but let's not pretend that women aren't a contributing factor as well.
