| 1 | Blue Pill refuses to recognize the monster they created.The general premise of what the OP said is really really true, at least when it comes to the criticism directed at the "Blue Pill" and the third wavers in general RE: any kind of "issues" related to sex or gender that they get their hands on and start tossing around. So the flair was wrong but at the same time the OP's opinion is more or less an accurate and decent one to have as far as this goes, considering that he (?) condemns the BP and the RP on an equal level. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/15 04:16 PM |
| 1 | Is it at all possible to be both red pill and a feminist? (all pills)Tenets of self-improvement, especially physical self-improvement, should just be the status quo mentality in society, as far as I'm concerned. We all know that "waved" feminism was and isn't about equality or egalitarianism-- it's really the furthest thing from it when you see third wave feminism in action, actually. So the answer? Be about legitimate self-improvement and be as "egalitarian" as you can be, with emphasis on remembering that egalitarianism swings both ways when it comes to gender.… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/05/15 08:31 PM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionI don't even know if it's radicalization in as much as it is the natural hypocrisy around male sexuality that seems to be a staple of the "sex positive movement" that walks hand in hand with the third wave movement. I know that I prefer sexuality of any kind to be more discrete or "classy" if that makes sense and so wouldn't be in favour of unhinged male sexuality as some equivalent to the "pro-slut" attitude for example-- but that's one thing that's very noticeable, the hypocrisy that "sex posi… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 07:46 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionOk, I see. I try to avoid reading about her and the sort of people who're on her wave-length, but she does seem to be big on the whole rape hysteria thing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 07:10 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual Rejectionargued for that stuff ended up hardcore antisex types Who're you referring to? Who did you think I was referring to? I'm just curious here. Are you talking about second wavers who may've been affiliated with "free love" as in the hippie-associated movement? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 06:45 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionYou just sound very third wave about it. Maybe I was just reading in the whole "actually believes that society/any society would actually consider this to be a viable option" thing into what you were saying. Regardless whether or not you hear it a few times on the internet, it's preposterous and no one would ever buy into it-- it's about as bad as what you hear from the "fat-positive/stop fat shaming" crowd. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 03:34 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionIt's because you're writing it in this way that seems to imply that you think people don't get that. No one's actually ever going to say "women who're fit and attractive are obligated to date men who don't take care of themselves/are unhealthy and so are unattractive". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 03:03 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionI think it should be legal everywhere, as the alternative forces people onto the streets and leaves them open to abuse. Selling sex is going to happen one way or the other, why not make it all above-board and safe? That sort of thing belongs in brothels. It should be legal in brothels and there should be a greater initiative to get the worst elements when it comes to prostitution off of the streets/the eye of the public. It shouldn't be "open" and legal. That sort of thing-- barring maybe the qu… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 01:43 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionAre these people in question psychologically disturbed? If they're just hugely unhealthy or otherwise untrained when it comes to basic social graces-- ie, chronic shut ins-- then I fail to see how physical self-improvement of any sort would come second to killing yourself in despair because you're not getting any. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 01:35 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionThere's no such thing, especially when "sex positivity" is such a stupid concept as it is, in the sense of the way it manifests itself in reality. Anyone who says "it's the free love sex positives versus the horrible repressive puritans" is an idiot and otherwise delusional. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 01:33 AM |
| 1 | Sex Positivism in the Face of Sexual RejectionThe concepts of "sex positivity" and "incel", are, I think, both extremely stupid-- especially when you see who's making use of either term. That is to say, the third wave feminists and at least a portion of the red pillers. I hold "sex positivity" to be idiotic, especially in practise, for obvious reasons. Most prominently, it's used-- as a lot of things are-- as a vehicle for third wave feminists to try, however they can, to deflect any kind of criticism or anything other then glowing, fawning… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 01:31 AM |
| 1 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menI think that some men care, not "most", like it states in the OP. I think having compatible sex drives in a relationship is more important than how many people you've previously been with. I can say that all of my friends who're men (and absolutely not red pill, as that does seem to be a popular accusation) are what you'd call "anti slut". I am "anti slut" and I've yet to meet a man (apart from a few pathetic third wave "allies") who would consider slutty behaviour to be acceptable when it comes… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 01:06 AM |
| 1 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menHow many partners does a woman have before she is labeled an untouchable "whore"? 5? 10? 20? The time frame is everything, as is how the woman in question presents all of this. If you're both looking for a relationship, and she says that she's been through 10 different relationships of some kind in the past year, and they all went ass-side up, then that's a whole other kettle of fish entirely. If you're looking for a relationship and she makes it plain that she's been with 20 men in the past mon… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 12:56 AM |
| 1 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menYou're assuming that I'm a third-wave feminist or on board with third-wave feminism. I much more identify with second-wave feminism and the Factual Feminist. I identify with the term feminism because of it's core principle of equality--that's it. Second wave as in the "radfems"? If you actually believe in second wave principles then to be honest I don't see how that's any better or how that means that you're "for equality".

I wouldn't be able to trust someone who acts like a slut in any real kind of relationship and I would find it strange/off-putting regardless if she considered it to be some point of pride that she'd been with scores of guys in a limited period of time.

| 2 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menYeah, but at this point it's really just lint-picking or navel-gazing when it comes to this. They've made the movement what it is. They hold certain ridiculous theories to be true and behave in a way that makes it impossible to take them seriously when they want to be taken seriously-- see "slut shaming", rape hysteria, pushing the idea of "rape culture" and "toxic male culture/masculinity", and so on. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/15 03:01 AM |

| 1 | Do I come across as someone who holds "Red Pill" style beliefs?You do realize that "blue pill" isn't a thing, right? Yes. I said already that I don't think either "movements" or whatever aren't a thing outside of the internet. How many "blue pill" people have you met in real life? None. I sadly have met a few third wave feminists in real life, and those are basically the entire membership of "blue pill". And yeah, you're quite clearly coming off as "red pill", considering your terribly over-exaggerated depiction of what you think "blue pill" actually is.

| 5 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menYeah, but that doesn't matter in light of the fact that our mutual friend here actually believes that this thing is true. It's only worth saying "oh but it rolls off the tongue so nicely" if you convince her that it's ridiculous hyperbolic nonsense. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 07:18 PM |
| 9 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menOkay, so criticizing short men or women with thinning hair would be shaming, yes? It's fine to have physical preferences. But yes, shitting on someone because they happened to be short or were a woman with thinning hair would be more like a kind of shaming. But criticizing a fat man or a slutty woman would not be shaming? Exactly. Saying to a man who gobbles down 30 greasy hamburgers a week "this is why people think you're gross and why no one wants to fuck you" wouldn't be "shaming".

I'm making it a rule to disregard the opinions of anyone who says "it's us social liberals and then those backwards puritans"; I think that's a pretty good stance to take. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 02:14 PM |
| 10 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menProbably more around the lines of going after someone for something they can't do anything about. It's one of those words that's been abused to the point that it's really meaningless more then anything else, as far as I'm concerned. You can absolutely change or otherwise modify your behaviour. It's not like you can't help acting like a slut or anything like that. It's not a disease or a disorder or a psychosis. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 02:12 PM |

In the real world it's not the "proud sex positive pro slut feminists and their allies versus the evil backwards puritans". It's much more diverse then that and the pro-slut sex positive third wavers certainly aren't "in the right" when it comes to social/societal commentary.

Or people who think third wave feminism is full of bullshit? I didn't think so either. In the de-facto sense it is a third waver subreddit and that's what their "ideology" is. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 01:25 PM |
| 4 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menDepends what the ideology is. Red pill ideology, outside of the basic physical self-improvement and confidence stuff, that you don't need to go to red pill to get at? It's ridiculous garbage. Blue pill ideology-- so basically third wave feminism? Garbage. There are some ideologies that hold more water then others when it comes to ideology in general. That means that there are some ideologies that're better to have then others, in general. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 01:18 PM |
| 1 | Why doesn't Bluepill provide analysis on posts?Blue Pill is packed full of third wavers and third wave feminist ideology so I'd say it's just about as useless when it comes to "alternate advice" as red pill is at its most toxic and stupid. How about they take the basic, actually sensible bits of advice-- like work out if you're not fit or underweight or whatever, and then dump both camps for the bad jobs they obviously are? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 01:13 PM |

You can't continue to be a "pure" traditional conservative at this point, if we're talking in the sense of "arch-conservatism". That much is true.

| 1 | Do I come across as someone who holds "Red Pill" style beliefs?usually came with calling bluepillers out on their, well, delusional bullshit. That's true. I really only focus on BP people because they are actively trying to push the rubbish that they say is the truth or factual into society and the public consciousness. I've never met a BP person who wasn't a third wave feminist. If the RP wasn't so insular and was trying to do the same thing, I'd be on that as well.

| 3 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menDemonization of the so-called "traditional conservative". Not to say that there aren't any aspects worth criticizing about them, but primarily not for the social/societal reasons exclusively. Do you hold anyone who's not excessively socially/societally liberal to be "backwards" or "part of the problem"? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 10:59 AM |
| 6 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menYou're going to have to find more evidence then "doesn't think being a slut is a good/positive thing" before you start slinging that accusation around. I do know from my brief time at the blue pill that I could say "I dislike you both" as many times as I wanted and it still wouldn't change a damned thing when it came to the accusations of being a terper. So, find more evidence. Except you can't, so I'll wait for you to make something up. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 10:48 AM |
| 6 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menBPs do sort of endorse that "where are all the good men" nonsense in the process of holding on to their specific gender/societal-based ideology. I don't spend time with RP people outside of here but I suppose there is a lot of blather of this mythical horde of slutty slut sluts running around.

| 8 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menWhat he said there sounds very pompous, but the truth is that the majority of men across the board will be very decidedly "anti slut" when it comes to long term relationships or really any kind of serious relationship at all. Saying that much isn't indicative of any abnormal or extreme or negative attributes (it sure as hell doesn't make you 'red pill' to think as much, for example); it's just based around the fact that actually being a slut isn't "good" or "acceptable". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 07:43 AM |
| 2 | Women complaining about men not wanting to wife up promiscuous women is like a man complaining about women being attracted to taller, more athletic menIs your point that many women are shamed for their sexual history? That's not exactly a controversial viewpoint. It is a controversial viewpoint in the sense that the only people who claim that women are "shamed" by default in this way have a very "unique" way of looking at things like the sexes and society. usually revolves around why this practice is right/wrong or why we care so much.

I think that the "bigger is better" idea at this point is essentially ingrained into Caucasoid cultures, and then there's the stereotypical "black/African has a big dick", but the reality is that how you use it is as important, if not more, then the size.

Again, as someone who's absolutely not a red piller (if I really have to get specific I hold the ideology at the same level as third wave feminism), I can say that a lot of men do care, at least when it comes to long-term relationships.

If you want to try and blame it on the "patriarchy" or "toxic male culture", then there's absolutely no point in doing so.

Yes, the red pill/"blue pill" extreme gender partisanism does bleed into this sub to some extent.

So you are damned? All of the women (and men) I've encountered who identify or call themselves feminists-- specifically third wave feminists-- aren't as bad as the extreme "kill all men, yay misandry" tumblr types that essentially look like some kind of bad satire-- but otherwise they are extremely similar in the sense that they believe in some quantifiable inherently negative "patriarchy".

The sort of thinking that he's describing is pretty characteristic of those who subscribe to the third wave feminist movement. It is not endemic to "women" in general, and it is bigotry to describe "women" as being "the same as children" on a functional level. This is where buddy goes wrong in his writing.

If you surround yourself with little clusters of people who're as "sex positive" and as socially liberal as you are, then I suppose you can fool yourself into thinking that they're the only opinions that exist.

I'm nearly 34, people my age growing up were very pro-feminist. I think it depends who you run with. I know all of my friends who're also men either see third wave stuff as something to make fun of, or otherwise they're completely oblivious to it.

I understand why "sluts" aren't seen as good relationship material and I do see "slut shaming" as something that's overwhelmingly applied by certain kinds of women if they're criticized for anything sexual that they do.

I understand that feminists would love excessive use of the term "rape" and the endorsement of fictional things like "rape culture", sure. But that's besides the point here.

It depends on who's accusing her of whatever. The main problem is that if a man defends himself in the case of excessive violence on the part of a woman, whether wife or girlfriend, he can be accused of perpetuating domestic violence himself in turn.
