I'm aware of that, and I've brought up those exact points to women here before, but none of them have ever changed their minds.

You don't need anyones approval for a commercial/private paternity test. Of course you can't directly sever paternity based on that but if it comes back negative, you know what you need to do......

This is what I advise men as well, it's better for everyone. But a lot of women find it even more objectionable than asking the mother for it because "she's not consenting" and "you're doing it behind her back" or whatever.

I've heard those arguments against capitalism too, I can't say I'm convinced but at least leftists are somewhat consistent in that regard. But while most women are left-leaning they are not fundamentally anti-capitalist.

Apparently, declining sex should not come with any expectation of decent treatment, you believe that is entitlement. That, you also said. Depends on what you mean by "decent". Men frequently treat women better because they are, or want to, have sex with them. You cannot refuse and reasonably expect to be treated the same way in this respect. Women shouldn’t advocate for this because it’s just a tactic to put down men who have to “use other things” to convince women to have sex with them It's one…

not wanting her son to be an unaccountable irresponsible slut Once again, the mother could have gotten an abortion, or given it up for adoption. She chose to keep it and raise it. It's easy for you to shame men for not being involved when you have those options and we don't. Because to me, that sounds like exactly the kind of man who has kids because he lied to the baby momma that he’d stick around after the baby. Why would he? What does he get out of that? Nothing, he doesn't want to be a fathe…

Most men are undesirable by any woman. This In a comparison study of fine lines by sex, the skin of female participants was shown to be smoother This was done on Chinese women, who age substantially better than white women. And they actively avoid sunlight to maintain the east asian aesthetic standard of light skin, as opposed to white women who intentionally tan themselves. I would know, I'm a Chinese. The average white women mid 30s and up doesn't hold a candle to her east asian counterparts.

Women criticizing "Caleb" for his bastards ignore that the women are choosing to have and keep them. They could have aborted it or put it for abortion but they didn't. Unless he is promising to stick around when they were pregnant or something, but I doubt that because it's in his own best interests to have them get rid of it. At any rate I don't see how it's any different from them choosing to have kids through a sperm donor at that point, because that's essentially what he is. And a playboy wh…

If he has bastards it's most likely because the women chose to keep them. They could have had an abortion or put it for adoption, so I wouldn't have much sympathy to give. If, on the other hand, he deceived the women into thinking he would stick around when they were pregnant, that would be much worse.

All the IVF fertility research I've research indicated little or no difference in success rate between men in different age cohorts, when controlled for maternal age. weight gain This applies to both sexes, and can be more easily avoided than something like skin aging for women.

I think truth isn't really relevant here, like it has no bearing on things like how much you spend on her, how attentive you are, etc. Those are value judgements.
/r/PurplePillDebate19/09/24 10:50 PM

Appearance matters more, but all else being equal being too agreeable and generous is bad. Guys just get away with it because women enjoy the practical benefits of a doormat boyfriend/husband but they subconsciously lose respect and attraction. And more importantly it makes you prone to being taken advantage of.

Not even all young woman can be picky, depending on how desirable they are. They can be the most selective when it comes to casual sex but the more commitment they want the more discerning men will be. And as they age their desirability declines hard.

Men are in peak physical condition in their twenties. I think aging is give and take with men. On one hand men can face balding and overall fat gain as they age. But on the other hand, ageing for men can mean being able to grow more facial hair which develops throughout your 20s and 30s, especially helpful if you have a weak jaw. And also losing baby fat on your face.

Maybe with regards to finances but absolutely not appearance. Most 35 year old women are in no position to filter out men who are balding or chubby because that would be the majority of men in their demographic. Whereas young women have no shortage of attractive, youthful, men to pick from so older men need to have aged well to stand a chance.

consent is to be given freely with no strings attached I disagree, that’s not how consent works with literally everything else. Would you argue that your job is forced labor because you are required to work to get paid? Ridiculous. There is no reason that sex should be treated differently.

Why would I go through life prioritizing the interests of others? That’s a sure way to lose out because others won’t prioritize my interests. Every single thing you do has consequences, facing consequences for declining sex is no different so long as they don’t infringe on your rights. No one has a right to continued employment, and especially not continued relationship. Requiring total freedom from any and all undesirable consequences for consent to be valid is ridiculous and entitled.

If someone consents because of threats of retaliation, it is no consent at all Why not, so long as the retaliation is within the rights of the other party? They're not having sex because they want to have sex. Whether they want to is irrelevant to whether it's consensual. I don't want to work either, that doesn't make my employment forced labor.

ultimatum: a threat in which a person or group of people are warned that if they do not do a particular thing, something unpleasant will happen to them. It is usually the last and most extreme in a series of actions taken to bring about a particular result I chose the word "ultimatum" instead of "threat" because "threat" often has violent connotations "threats" do not necessarily involve demands The employee is NOT a willing participant.

No you are defending the practice of soliciting sex I'm just saying that it's not rape/SA. Enthusiastic consent is the only acceptable consent there is.

How is it "rape" if she can freely refuse without suffering an infringement of her rights?
/r/PurplePillDebate18/09/24 11:00 AM

But the law is secondary, there are acts that are not criminalized as sexual assault/rape that should be(stealthing) and arguably vice versa as well. Most people would agree that you don't have a right to continued employment, just as your employer doesn't a right to your continued service. Either party can end the relationship at any time for any reason. This is even more true for ending a relationship. So why would these consequences make a sexual ultimatum nonconsensual?

Soliciting employees for sexual favors can be civilly penalized as sexual harassment/sex discrimination without being labelled as sexual assault/rape, a crime. That's how it works throughout the US. I wasn't defending the practice, I'm just saying it's not SA.

That dynamic creates pressures that remove real meaningful consent. Why is it not meaningful? Do you understand what consent actually means because it is not just the word yes.

So your agreeing then you think it’s fair? If I don't think it's fair then I wouldn't take the deal.

Consider how some people don't photograph well Because photographs are two dimensional and lenses can distort the image. And some things are left out like height, which is especially important for men.

You said intimidation twice. Being fired from your job or being dumped does not reasonably cause "fear" nor is it "intimidation".

And socialization has a professional aspect as well, in many careers you need to play politics to get promoted, or at the very least expand your professional cicle to get access to more job oppurtunities in the future.

All work is done on pursuit of our own desire. I see you just skipped over the "intrinsic" part. Again, work isn’t considered work because it’s hard, or undesirable. It doesn’t stop becoming work if you also enjoy the work. Characterizing my point as childrearing being "enjoyable work" is an understatement and a misrepresentation. I'm saying that childrearing fundamentally has characteristics of both work and hobby, and can probably be characterized as both. How do YOU define "work"?

is just acknowledging that you can have fun WHILE doing the work. You can choose to frame it that way. Alternatively I could also frame it as a intrinsically desirable experience that requires work. But if you view the fulfillment of childrearing as secondary to the labor and cost involved, again, I don't think you'd be a good parent. But the toll is factual, and even if you pay it willingly, you are still paying it in long hours and emotional exhaustion. The same can be said for paid work only …

You seem really confused about what "work" means. Someone else linked the Merriam-Webster page for "work" and there are no less than 12 different noun definitionos for that word alone. The fact that children are rewarding for people who WANT kids doesn't suddenly mean raising children isn't back-breaking, heart-wrenching, disgusting, sleep-depriving, or anxiety inducing And you're missing that point which is that if you derive a substantial amount of intrinsic fulfillment/satisfaction from doing…

It is definitely not a better way to define leisure at all.

If you spend 16 hours a day sleeping and 6 hours working, the fact that you don't have time for "leisure" is irrelevant, you're not getting much done in the remaining time.

That could mean living in a complete shitbox of a house with 5 roommates and little privacy, and never going out to eat or vacation etc. I seriously doubt that would be the case in most instances, considering how much cheaper it is to live with someone else, especially if you're a couple you could easily make do with a 1bd or 1bd + den.

All those things are transient, when people lose their jobs they usually find a new job that's not too different from their old one. Should i ask hom for rent because the house is in my name? If you're married it doesn't matter whose name it's in, directly contributing to the costs of the house would give him claim to some portion of the value.

But expenses with a person you love isn’t a zero sum game or “parasitism.” I think life will be quite difficult for you if you're not able to understand that people can exploit love for personal financial gain. because they’re paying slightly more "Slightly?" Even something as seemingly modest as a 60/40 split is substantial, since one partner is paying 50% more than the other. That person is your partner, not a roommate or a stranger. I find viewing them like one is odd. Why is this attitude ne…

If you’re in a committed LTR, why not? "because if you separate it will be a massive financial and legal headache." To be clear, while some cohabitating couples do have a joint account for household expenses, that's just splitting expenses in another way. I've never met an unmarried couple that combined ALL their cash into a single bank account.

Right, but most people aren't running their own private petting zoo, that's quite exceptional. does this mean you're firmly against tradwives I don't think having a permanent SAHM makes sense anymore in this day and age, due lower fertility, outsourced childcare to schools and daycares, and modern conveniences and appliances. Comparing a modern-day "tradwife" to a 19th century woman with 3+ children, who has to clean everything by hand, and prepare food from SCRATCH scratch, is comparing apples …

True partners don’t nickle and dime each other. Not tolerating parasitism is not "nickel and diming". I'm not talking about paying for a meal here or movie ticketst here, living expenses are quite substantial. If you compare paying 60% of rent and bills to paying 50%, that's equivalent to a 20% hike in expenses. If your bills and rent went up by 20% that would substantially affect most people.

Most relationships after a certain point just pool your money. That typically only happens after marriage, and I certainly have grievances against marriage as well, but that's a topic for another day. But regardless, it's even more unwise to combine finances entirely before marriage, because if you separate it will be a massive financial and legal headache.

That's different, I'm explicitly talking about splitting expenses based on earnings in of itself, not the broader concept of dividing financial and housekeeping responsibilities. Although I do look down on highly lopsided financial divisions in the context of childless relationships and marriages, because frankly without children there just isn't that much housework to be done.

The focus on men specifically with this question is unfairly targeted given what we know about the prevalennce female perpetration of sexual violence. And of course there is physical violence within relationships, and violence broadly. These statistics are never compared to how women would respond to the same question, or how people of either sex would respond to a similar questions about desire to perpetrate criminalized acts, for instance, a question asking if they would kill anyone if there w…

That's a disturbing statement.

If you completely removed no ratings and lowest ratings from the analysis(both "0s") the graph is still strongly right skewed. if women in general are more likely rate a man they find attractive than a man they find average or unattractive If anything that supports my point, the 0 ratings from not being rated are not that far off from where they would have been otherwise, in all likelihood 0-2. The only way this quirk would substantially affect the data is if women were less likely to rate men t…

This take downplays the substantial amount of labor women also invested into their families in the past. They had far more children, limited if any access to professional childcare and public education to outsource childrearing, did almost all other household tasks without the aid of electric household appliances and other modern conveniences, and often times still contributed financially.

It’s sexual for the person doing the assaulting, not the person being assaulted. The act is sexual. Perpetuating the idea that rape has anything to do with sex Rape is sex. Sex is a physical act, it may or may not be consensual. You’re accidentally agreeing with me. Men are responsible for most violent (“non-sexual”) crimes No one here has disputed that, stop jerking yourself off. This post is about sexual violence specifically.

So many men think rape is sexual. It is. Why the fuck do you think it's also called "SEXUAL assault"? It’s just violence bro. It says AND/or. Yes, which would capture men subject to physical violence. Which is FAR more common than sexual violence, at least for men. You have no argument.
/r/PurplePillDebate08/09/24 10:40 AM

Why do you think it is that more men report being made to penetrate vs being raped? Because they are far more likely to be assaulted by a woman than another man? What kind of question is this? The NISVS doesn't ask people whether they were "raped" or "made to penetrate", the former is inflammatory and the latter is unknown. They ask people whether they were ever subject to certain behaviors, and label them as being victimized in either category if they answer in the affirmative to certain ones. …

You're ignoring all the data OP has linked. Also, you haven't linked any of the sources, and even still I can see some problems off the bat. Firstly as u/abaxeron, many of these studies like the NISVS do not call it "rape" when a woman has sex with a man without his consent, because they define rape exclusively in terms of the victim being penetrated. Secondly, although the lifetime victimization figures are more skewed in favor of women in the NISVS, the 12 month victimization rates are much cl…

when they ignore that the majority of men are sexually victimized not by women but by other men. This is a lie, especially when it comes to nonconsensual intercourse. Per the NISVS far more men report being "made to penetrate" than "raped", the latter referring only to nonconsensual where they were the ones being penetrated. And the perpetrators are overwhelmingly female. The problem is a lot of these studies like the NISVS define "rape" as cases where the victim is penetrated against their will…
