| 3 | Q4M: what is your personal happiness level, and why has there been a decline in male happiness?Antiwork posts are usually dumb and they need to take a basic econ class. But I mean there are so so many BS corporate jobs in the US. So many middle managers, administrators, HR, clueless overpaid execs. Mostly speaking from my personal experience across a few different industries and corporations. We had many “analysts” at one of my old jobs running Excel reports all day. Literally every report could be automated away by a decent analyst or programmer. 50+ people throughout the organization do… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/11/21 05:29 PM |
| 2 | What is your advice to men on how to get the most sex? What is your advice to women on how to get the best relationship?Just get a nice apartment in the middle of a booming city with no roommates, spend money on furniture, gym membership, skincare, grooming, clothes, going out frequently/dates. Then fund it by getting a social job like at a restaurant or coffee shop! Sounds reasonable. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/11/21 12:31 AM |
| 9 | Most guys aren't really trying that hardIt’s really really scummy to promote steroids to young men. If they have been training for years and years and then consider them with a lot of thought then that’s a different story. Especially in the age of Instagram and influencers where the fitness models are juiced to the gills to make money, but peddling it as natural and attainable for any guy. This is coming from a guy who really wanted to get on when I was younger but now I’m really glad I didn’t. Imagine if people were promoting teenage… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/10/21 05:12 PM |

The original thread is also ridiculous, one top comment is her standard is just that men piss in the toilet, not all over the floor. Like what kind of guys are you seeing that that’s a recurring issue?? Half the comments have nothing to do with actual standards, it’s just gaslighting about how low their standards are and still no guy meets them. Meanwhile if the standards were actually that low they’d find a ton of guys meeting them. T… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/10/21 04:34 PM |

| 1 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatYeah so that’s why men say if you’re not getting dates to hit the gym, it’s preferred by most women. I think we can agree there. Healthy and fit are the terms I’m using, not thin, thin does not equal healthy. I stand by that it’s not significantly more difficult for women to be fit in general. You could make a thousand arguments for a variety of factors (hormones, stress, family, will power, genetics, testosterone levels, wealth, age, access to a gym, injuries, education, country, etc.) all resu… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 04:38 PM |
| 1 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatDude she can deadlift 666 pounds at 114 body weight, her back is jacked. Trust me she can wreck you in pull ups. Yeah getting strong might help you get some more dates, but more importantly it keeps you healthy, can give you confidence, and builds up discipline. I say this as a guy who originally got into lifting to get more girls. Lift for yourself, bro. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 04:20 PM |
| 1 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatOk brb let me learn an entire complex field real quick. Get real. If I’m wrong, please just point out how I’m wrong. If you studied those things great, you should be able to summarize a point and make a concise argument for others to understand. I don’t think you need a PhD to have a general understanding of weight loss. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 04:12 PM |

Also guys have a huge advantage naturally in upper body strength, so it’s not a 1 to 1 comparison. Yes, men are naturally stronger than women. That’s not impressive in itself. There are women olympians who could run circles around you in their respective fields, even if you trained your whole life for it.

| 3 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatI’m not saying women demand muscles, I’m saying to be fit as a guy you need a healthy amount of muscle mass (don’t need to be a meathead or body builder). Dating wise I noticed a huge difference in attention from women when I put on muscle vs when I was skinny, that’s just my personal experience. I agree it’s my personal choice, but please don’t deny a muscular, fit guy is going to be more attractive to most (not all) women than a guy who never works out, all else constant. It’s something a guy … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 03:54 PM |
| 3 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatNo women would ever survive your workouts? Lmao.

| 3 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatYou realize eating food to be fit (muscular) as a guy is difficult too, right? I prefer eating less food and skipping breakfast but I have to force myself to eat to gain muscle. And I’d love to see you eat and prep 3k calories (more if you’re building muscle) of high quality foods everyday to maintain muscle as an active male. And we’re not talking about eating ice cream everyday. I mean eating plain eggs, oatmeal, brown rice, veggies, chicken breast/lean protein, protein powder, protein bars wi… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 03:34 PM |
| 3 | CMV: Being attractive as a woman is the easiest thing in the world: just don't be fatWeight change is a factor of calories in vs calories out for the vast majority of people, male or female, no? Women naturally have a higher % body fat, but they also look better with higher body fat then men (for example 20% bf on women typically looks better distributed than 20% bf on a guy). You can’t make moral judgements based on someone’s weight, but you can infer what their habits are. Like they are likely to not be very active (and yeah there are some large people who are active but they … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/10/21 03:24 PM |

| – | Why has the amount of sexless men 18-30 increased more than the amount of sexless women 18-30?Gen Z/millennials were taught over and over that’s it’s creepy to look, creepy to approach. The only thing that matters is that it’s a safe space. Now people are surprised they don’t do it? Kinda hilarious tbh | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/10/21 06:25 PM |
| 1 | Guys would rather be fuckboys than seen as husband material because the former gets the best of both worlds, and the latter gets the least of both worlds.Lol imagine this genders reversed: “you’d be surprised how many girls get real sad and salty and butthurt when they’re treated like just a piece of meat.” Like of course they’re salty, don’t treat people like shit? Even if it’s a FWB or hook up you should still be be respectful (as long as they are). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/10/21 06:07 PM |
| 2 | CMV: Women care too much about wanting to look good as a couple when vetting menWhy is the default option for male fashion just suits? They’re so boring and repetitive to me. Also expensive and you’re not gonna get to wear them a ton unless it works for your job. Also not comfortable to wear lol. I just don’t get it tbh. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/09/21 04:58 PM |
| 1 | CMV: women in relationships "setting up" their single male friends with their single female friends is complete fiction, almost never happens in reality.If you have a female friend, she likely has other female friends. If you hangout with her, she might invite her friends or bring them to parties, out to bars, game nights, etc. I’ve never been directly set up, but I’ve met some girls I’ve dated this way, as friends of friends. Sometimes my friend would let me know so and so was interested, but never directly set us up. As the guy you’re still likely gonna have to initiate and do the work early on. If you’re looking to date this is why having a s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/09/21 11:11 PM |

| 2 | I think a lot of male frustration comes from the lie that women are somehow nicer or kinder than us.I can agree women are generally more empathetic, I’m not sure whether or not this makes a huge difference in the kindness levels between men and women. I also think I can emphasize with my guy friends about guy things much better than my girl friends can, even though they are on average are more empathetic. I could see how my upbringing beat kindness out of me and other guys. I was bullied for being quiet/polite as a young kid. You’re taught nice guys finish last and then see it become true as t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/09/21 03:43 PM |
| 1 | I think a lot of male frustration comes from the lie that women are somehow nicer or kinder than us.I’d agree women are nicer in the sense of more polite, but I don’t think they’re genuinely kinder on a deeper level than men. If someone has a higher emotional IQ does that mean it will always be used to benefit others? Couldn’t that mean they have a deeper understanding and could manipulate/hurt other people more in some ways? Just like having a high IQ means someone could do good things, but they also have a higher capacity to do harm as well. Also I could agree a 45 year old guy could be used… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/09/21 02:43 PM |
| 1 | if you're a young woman that only dates men who earn 80k+, then you can't complain about older men dating young women.Lmao Blizerian is a major fraud. His company went bankrupt and he fled the US. He paid those young insta models to hang around him (and for sex I’m sure). He had multiple heart attacks by his 40s from drug use. His entire business model was to appear as a high value man and live lavishly. In reality he wasted millions, suffers from his drug use, and had nothing but superficial and empty relationships. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/09/21 02:37 PM |
| 1 | When a Tall/Rich/Highly Educated Woman says: "Men don't like to date us" that means, Men who are: "taller than them, richer than them, more educationally qualified than them".

I’m glad you got value out of it, but no I didn’t get anywhere close to the value I paid (you can say it got me a better job, but that’s more so because of arbitrary degree requirements than the degree itself providing value).

They don't see Men who are lesser qualified than them anywhere near.I went to a liberal arts school and wish I didn’t. The required liberal arts classes were 100% a waste of my time and money. It was like taking high school classes a 2nd time. Easy As. It was a reputable school too. I could have taken the useful classes in 2 years and saved thousands. I agree education and differentiation of skills is important, but when you’re charging $3k+ a class, make them useful. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/21 10:43 PM |

| 2 | What’s causing decline in male sexlessness of recent?I lift, play sports myself (just adding since you insulted someone else assuming they’re “nerdy”). I’d say twitch is more akin to watching amateur games/practice vids of sports. There are video game tournaments around the world that are logistically complex to set up to, but that doesn’t really matter? The pro gamers in these tournaments dedicate their lives and play like 16 hours a day at times, they’re dedicated as well.

| 1 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthYep, too few people understand this. Having money in investments/accessible is equivalent to freedom in the US. If you don’t, you are really a 2nd class citizen. You can like the system or hate it, but that’s the way it is. OP seems a bit extreme driving a $1k car and living super frugally with a great salary, but that’s up to him. But it’s better to me than spending constantly like the average American on things that don’t actually increase your quality of life in the long run. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/08/21 12:52 AM |
| 2 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthGood for you, I wish nothing but the best for you personally. I specifically said I don’t know your financial situation, I was more-so referencing the majority of Americans. Also I was arguing with your statement, not you as a person. I tried to provide direct examples of why investing/saving money can be extremely valuable. Debt itself isn’t bad, when utilized effectively it’s a great tool. I’m talking about the gross culture of consumerism in the US and how people in the thread were attacking … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/08/21 07:18 PM |

| 1 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthI agree with ya then, definitely need to find a balance. In my experience it’s just much more common to see people overspending and living above their means than to see them over saving and being too frugal. But yeah getting a used car over taking the bus is a solid decision in many cases and I’d do the same. Are there a lot of guys you’re running into saving too much? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/21 09:51 PM |
| 0 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthTo ya know, cover the actual important things in life. Housing, food, healthcare bills, education, retirement (retiring 10 years early if you save can give you back 20,000 hours of your life), car (you don’t need to drive a death trap to save money here? If you’re paying a second rent each month to finance a new car every 10-15 years you’re wasting your money IMO). I’m not trying to say don’t enjoy your life and day to day. I’m saying find ways outside of buying things to enjoy yourself. We live… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/21 07:41 PM |
| 2 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthIt means you can retire early and spend time with loved ones instead of working your whole life. Say you’re able to retire at 55 instead of 65. That’s 50 weeks X 40 hours X 10 years = 20,000 hours of your life back. It means you can pay for unforeseen medical bills and care in old age. It means you can pay for your children’s outrageous education costs and improve their quality of life as a result. It means you can afford to pursue your passions and interesting jobs rather than being trapped int… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/21 06:44 PM |
| 4 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthYep. Just because you can buy something doesn’t mean you should buy that thing. This applies to houses, cars, new phones, new clothes. We live in a debt and consumer driven society, so focused on superficial items. People see someone driving a nice car and assume they’re rich, meanwhile they live paycheck to paycheck and are in massive debt. For some reason this concept is lost on so many. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/21 06:22 PM |
| 5 | CMV: Women care about lifestyle over money/wealthSeems like most of the responses here are annoyed at the way OP spends (or doesn’t spend) his money. I guess frivolous spending is what people in this thread want. I agree I would want to spend my money to get my own place and to travel, but everything else from eating out frequently, buying expensive cars, to buying expensive clothes are needless luxuries. Marketing campaigns and the promotion of consumerism is just too built into our societies. People just keep chasing a high from endless cons… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/21 03:45 AM |

As for indifference, I agree it’s not unethical or assholish. But I’ve been very indifferent/apathetic to people in the past. It’s not an enjoyable quality to have, I want to care for people and for what I do, not just be a blank emotionless drone.
