| 1 | Psychologist/Marriage Counselor - Why Great Husbands Are Being AbandonedMore data needed to jump to conclusions. And some statistics would be nice. I wholeheartly agree that this stuff can happen. But then I imagine it can happen to "nice girls" too. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/08/14 08:37 PM |
| -1 | Yay Feminism? This article brings up a lot of male benefits that I didn't even know about.Are we really discussing this ? The number of points mentioned in article could be related to number of stuff other than feminism. This is so vague...

| 2 | One of the most interesting things I've come across pertaining to the differences between men and women's sexual desires and preferences.That was areally interesting article. IMO a must read for both TRP and BP. For BP, to understand from what experiences TRP sometimes comes from. And for TRP to understand what the women in these experiences could be motivated with (not 100% evopsych). The sexual narcissism and the passiveness of women's sexual attraction is what really hit me there. About the feminist part... I just think that the West (I live in central/easter europe) is far more politically correct. I didn't get the impression… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/07/14 05:48 PM |
| 1 | Why are polygamy, polyamory, open relations, a bad thing?Mkay, thanks for your post! You have explained mostly your approach to open relationships. Mind if I ask some questions ? First, since you value fun, what is the thing you enjoy in LTR which you couldn't enjoy in other types of relationships ? Second, do you participate in some kind of poly community, or do you and your partners just go with random people you met ? Third, if you participate in some kind of poly community, could you try to describe the experiences of the most attractive women and… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/14 10:44 AM |
| 1 | Why are polygamy, polyamory, open relations, a bad thing?You know, it might be just that you have different experiences (and the reasons can be different, from associating with wrong people to allowing yourself to be used). Also, well, he posted one example, but this might be due to reasons that it's better to not make too long posts. I do not doubt that he might have more experiences like this. You said in your post: "third wave feminists", "they wanted freedom and equality", ""smart," "strong," "wildly-independent" feminist woman"... Yet it is still… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/14 10:16 AM |
| 4 | Why are polygamy, polyamory, open relations, a bad thing?Hm, I thought about it, also I've read "The Ethical Slut". I wouldn't mind my partners being promiscuous while I would be like this myself. But I doubt (as a male) I'd have easier time finding women then women finding men. And all the jealousy, neglect... I guess it can be fun, but I wouldn't think it's healthy for the long run. One guy from TRP posted his (mainly negative and confirming TRP stereotypes) experiences. Could you post yours ? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/05/14 07:03 PM |

While I don't think I've been fed bad advice about relationships in general, just a lot of dunnos (maybe expect, "It will happen in your own time, so why are you going for dates from internet ?" - that thing is bad advice). I've had some female friends that did have this belief that women have to be pedestalized. Me being against this was me being 'a bad person', and this was one of the first thoughts of why I might be no… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/05/14 05:30 PM |

| 3 | TRP and BP, how do you deviate slightly or dramatically from gender roles, or do your beliefs generally match how you conduct yourself?My parents got divorced when I was five, then I've been with my mother, but then my grandparents have taken her the child raising rights and after that I was raised both by my mother and grandparents, where my grandma and mother were in competition of who could be a better mother. In short, I didn't receive anything close to traditional male upbringing. Rather something messed up. I am not interested in cars, nor in sports. I was sensitive - I didn't like the verbal abuse which boys do throw at … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/05/14 09:04 AM |
| 1 | Resent at being a woman trying to fit into a man's world.I would think of people as men and women only when you want to attract someone, or build relationships. In terms of mental capacity or intellect I don't think there's any big difference. There was definitely inequality before in that women were not allowed to pursue higher education. So we cannot really know if the historical under-representation of women in science is due to this or 'not being suited'. IMO - just don't think about gender wars when relating to the career. Do what you like, and r… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/14 09:52 PM |
| 1 | Is sex actually worth the trouble TRP goes through to get it?Dunno, I think (part of) TRP is kind of spot on the rules of attraction. And that's I've stopped chasing sex. I don't like the game, sry. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/14 09:28 PM |
| 10 | XKCD ComicSo what's the difference between being a nice guy and falling for a friend, or a nice guy who's told that being sexually direct is offensive for women and therefore it's better to be friends first (or is just shy), between someone who's a "Nice Guy" who is tricking a woman to sleep with him ? Add to that complexity of human nature, or that people who are not desired are judged more harshly, and an average looking nice guy might be lumped with "Nice Guys". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/14 02:51 PM |
| 1 | Dan Savage's advice to a lonely young guy...Sorry for the late reply, I wasn't on the reddit for some time. Someone filled with self-esteem and hope [...] If you continuously try to get attention from opposite sex and fail, and see how it works for people who adopt more controversial strategies, you lose both self esteem and hope. [...] but if you're not tackling the depression you're not really 'improving' yourself. At least, not really. Think of an anorectic person convinced of their obesity, starving themselves. I believe that you can … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/14 02:36 PM |
| 5 | XKCD ComicAs a nice guy... Been BP, went full RP, then BP, now kinda RP. I've been happier being RP than BP. Even thought the all the shit RP gets, I understand the ideas that go before it. And while I didn't like PUA stuff, I certainly see them as something useful, something to be used as a crutch for some time. Even if I get shit for it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/14 02:01 PM |
| 4 | Dan Savage's advice to a lonely young guy...This. What is better: a) Stay depressed from loneliness. Improve yourself, but do not approach women. Try to not hurt people when achieving your goals. Get disrespected and ignored for being depressed. Eventually turn bitter and disrespectful towards the world, becoming less attractive. b) Try to approach women, play with having different attitudes (manipulation ?), do not get attached, care mostly for yourself. Eventually have some success, build confidence with opposite sex. Maybe have a reput… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/02/14 10:04 AM |

| 1 | What would you want your love life to be like if you were somehow desired, unconditionally, by every single person you desired?Damn, lately I've got a really low libido, so it's hard to say now. I know that there were times where I've wanted to have every girl I found attractive, but right now I don't give much attention to it. I guess I'd like someone to have a good relationship with. If my libido would skyrocket, then I guess I could have different priorities. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/02/14 02:35 PM |
| 3 | Girls and SoftwareIn college the "new girl" simply won't be included in study groups and in the workforce she is not invited to lunch. It is up to the woman to breach this segregation. I study computer science in central Europe. It doesn't look like this where I study. We did invite girls from our group to party with us or do some projects or what not. One girl did integrate with our group, but she didn't feel good (she wasn't a nerd before going to CS). The rest kind of isolated themselves. Not that they didn't … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/02/14 02:05 PM |
| 0 | Q for Purple Pillers: What about you is blue, and what about you is red?I do agree with you with almost everything. I do think woman and man are different, yet I hope that we could be equal. It would be a lot more fun (for me) if there would be more female nerds, or women who don't care much about social status, are driven by their inner passions, and are accepting to men from all kinds of life. I would hope that I could be just myself, not really cocky, a little shy, awkward, and still be able to attract someone from my world. But naah... Reminding myself to have a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/02/14 01:55 PM |

There are questions that will not be answered for now. A lot of my personal experience clicks with what some of the RP users say. And science hasn't done much to prove or disprove some of the questions. So, all what you have is experience. And when other people have similar experiences and observation, it kinda adds to validity of it. Sure, it might all be bias, b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/01/14 02:40 PM |
| 1 | Are men really disadvantaged in the "Sexual Marketplace"?Sorry, but viewing a certain category of humans as interchangeable is pathological. The connection, bond, is not interchangeable. The humans, especially the one who you don't know, are more or less interchangeable. You would care much if something bad happend to your family. If 100k people died in a earthquake somewhere far away - I doubt it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Great. tumblr in action, it's a subreddit and it is pretty toxic... they make fun of weird tumblr subcultures and roll it in with feminism and social justice, so they all tend to have a nasty knee-jerk reaction to anything related to feminism.

| 2 | The problem with the "it just works" argument for the red pillSo, for some reasons some people who stumbled into TRP were too nice to women. They put them on pedestal (Why ?). It didn't give them what they wanted from them. It didn't make them happy. Some of them, for some reason didn't have their life in shape. They weren't satisfied by their lifes. So, why didn't they find this advice about self-improvement more alluring somewhere else ? Some people will say "Internal misogony!". Dunno. Maybe the wake up call had to be more shocking...

| 1 | Do you believe submissiveness is an inherently gendered trait? Why do some red pillers praise submissiveness in one gender and deride it in the other?I think it would be more ethical than experimenting on living humans. Less ethical than observing living humans that somehow differ from the rest. And for that thing to work... Weell.. You're right. It was just a wild idea. Thought I wonder if this should get to molecule-simulation level. Maybe some more approximate models could be created... but, I'm no spec on this subject, so I'm not going to say anything. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/11/13 03:06 PM |
| 1 | Do you believe submissiveness is an inherently gendered trait? Why do some red pillers praise submissiveness in one gender and deride it in the other?Or maybe we could (with enough computing power) make a simulation of human brain, with variables such as influence of hormones, minerals, etc, in blood. And external stimuli, as what would trigger what neural networks! But I'd guess we'd have to wait about 100 years (or more) before being able to do so. Ok, but seriously, we can more or less approximate extent of social conditioning.

I agree that social conditioning is definitively a factor, but how important ? There are people, who go against the values the society tries to instil on them. For example men who go nursing. Women who go engineering. (Though some of the women I know who go into engineering have both parents who are engineers, so.. yeah, this could play a factor).

We live better lifes then people in the past. But we still like violence (movies, games, etc.). We still like to see sometimes someone else fail. And most of us agree that this is bad, so we choose to channel these things positively. But when it comes to attraction... Umm... We like to build relationships based on that.

Why do some red pillers praise submissiveness in one gender and deride it in the other?Yea, I just wonder if the BP side has any arguments to that. It's not like women were opressed to choose following role.. dancing is for fun, it's an open activity. Also, it's good for creating attraction. Why didn't it come up in any culture for woman to usually lead in a dance ?

Though I understand that TBP's mockery of TRP might push people from understinding TBP's point of view, I think that TBP is mostly a defense mechanism for some of the things you can find in TRP.

It's oversimplifying a lot of stuff, and can be a toxic environment. But I can relate to some relationship problems described there. And I like some of questions they pose.

| 2 | One sex professing to know what the other sex wants/needsHm, I've tried to ask women "what can I do to attract a girl, both in ONS and LTR term", and received good responses. Didn't try "what can I do to make YOU want to have sex with me"... Hm. Kind of very direct. I'd rather argue that she'd get defensive. Not necessarily thinking of you being desperate. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/11/13 12:38 AM |
| 3 | One sex professing to know what the other sex wants/needsSo, basicly, someone who is comfortable with his maleness, confident but not overbearing (can stand his ground, assertive), is intelligent, and interesting, cool to be with. Some of the PUA stuff will tell the same. Well, maybe except the openers, preselection, and don't-give-up-when-she-says-no attitude. Once I've stumbled on a blog series here. I think the tips here are about creating some of the qualities you described. And I've found them at TRP. The problem is that people have to work on th… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/11/13 12:25 AM |
| 3 | One sex professing to know what the other sex wants/needsHook up as ONS or hook up as "Hang around together for some prolonged time?" Because if it's the first, the meaning could be that girls prefer relationships, and for that -> beta. But if there's a situation unrevealing for ONS... why not take someone who's attractive and confident, not necessarely a good person ? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/11/13 07:14 PM |

| 2 | One sex professing to know what the other sex wants/needsAssuming people are that much self aware... Assuming we might have no beliefs limiting our self-perception. Heck, I don't know what I want most of the time, unless it's presented to me and I have time for introspection. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/11/13 07:05 PM |
| 1 | One sex professing to know what the other sex wants/needsSo maybe, a better question would be what women do NOT want at all, since earlier his response rate was zero ? I'd also guess this "What women want" could be more precise, ex. "what women want for sex" or something. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/11/13 06:59 PM |
| 1 | Why does TRP look down on promiscuous women?If I recall, there have been actual studies on this and they found that the main reason women rejected random men asking them for sex was that they did not feel safe and they had been taught not to be alone with strange men. When asked if they were attracted to them or whether they would have liked to have had sex with them, the differences between men and women practically disappeared. Could I get the names or links to the studies ? EDIT: Typo | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/11/13 10:19 PM |

I guess I can certainly agree that the experience of such feelings can extend the compassion, but still I'd be reluctant to say it makes women more honorable, virtuous, etc than men.

| 1 | Why is the idea that men have needs offensive to blue pillers?True. Yeah, in a way it's about succumbing to your baser instincts. The guy could probably pursue sex in more honest way. But I guess it is kind of hard, because (I think) there is some stigma to man wanting sex from woman ("Oh, you only see me as an object!" slap) than vice-versa. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/13 05:40 PM |

If you're starving, you'd like to throw yourself at the nearest available food and desperately throw the shredded meal into your mouth. It's weird, but I guess it's not unacceptable - food isn't a human being. But when it comes to sex and having high libido.. urgh. Things get complicated. I think based on my experience, (I could be wrong and if there's science of this topic, I'd like to see it) is that it's harder for men to have causal sex.
