| 1 | Should men love their women more? Should it be the other way around? Or equal?Hmm I’m genuinely curious to understand your perspective. Why so? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/06/23 12:27 AM |
| 2 | Should men love their women more? Should it be the other way around? Or equal?But why not someone you both equally love? How is it fair to the other person if you love them less? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/06/23 09:29 PM |
| 1 | Men who leave women who make him wait but not other men previously, is not entitlement, and is more than reasonable for the man's own goals and desires.Perfect analogy 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/11/22 01:48 AM |

| 5 | Being non-NT and looks-oriented is a very bad combinationI’m also a neurodivergent woman with adhd, but he does have a point in the first paragraph. You are conflating subjective attractiveness with conventional attractiveness/desirability politics. As a medium skinned woman of color, I’m not gonna be “hot” or “sexy” the same way an NT White woman is by conventional beauty standards. Agree on his physical standards being objectifying. But know that needing a baseline physical attraction is what most people need regardless of gender and isn’t inherentl… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/11/22 01:35 AM |
| 1 | Do girls usually assume the guy they're dating (or guys in general) can easily get casual sex?I literally said maybe when I talked about assumptions. For the most part, none unless he shared his sexual history. Happy?? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/11/22 12:54 AM |
| 1 | There is no such thing as 'winning over a girl'. She either likes you or doesn't.I’m pretty sure that goes hand in hand with the last point I made. But back to the original points I made, most sane people of any gender are considering many factors in the long run. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/11/22 12:25 AM |
| 1 | There is no such thing as 'winning over a girl'. She either likes you or doesn't.Even for interest, I’ve seen that what people are looking for varies per individual regardless of gender. Some women too could talk to and say yes to one date based off of looks alone. And some men definitely are considering things in a conversation to continue talking to and seeing someone. Needing effort outside of looks is more often the case when a woman’s physical attraction to a man is barely there (someone we’d rate a 5 or 6 perhaps). And attraction growing to someone just mid in looks is… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 11:52 PM |
| 1 | There is no such thing as 'winning over a girl'. She either likes you or doesn't.As a woman, I will say you are for the most part correct. There is also some truth to the fact that being into someone doesn’t have to be instant, but all these comments disagreeing with you don’t realize there’s a difference between putting in effort and forcing something. I cannot tell you how many times persistence or just being a try hard has made me go from lukewarm to repulsed. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 11:44 PM |
| 4 | There is no such thing as 'winning over a girl'. She either likes you or doesn't.What’s well established is most people need a mix of physical attraction, personality compatibility and chemistry to whole heartedly pursue someone as a potential partner. What you’re claiming sounds like a fairy tale idea of love at first sight. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 11:32 PM |
| 2 | Do girls usually assume the guy they're dating (or guys in general) can easily get casual sex?No assumptions, even subconsciously, unless said guy shared his sexual history with me. Tbh, I think assumptions would also be based on the personality vibe. If he had a particular fuckboy vibe, than maybe. If he had a shy guy or even introvert vibe, probably wouldn’t assume. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 11:12 PM |
| 9 | There is no such thing as 'winning over a girl'. She either likes you or doesn't.So physical attraction alone is enough for a man to want a woman? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 11:01 PM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Women have a higher standard for casual sex than men because most men will sleep with anyone with a pulse when they just want to bust a nut or because they’re lonely. But most women’s physical bar matches the physical bar for relationships. It all depends tho on whether or not a woman is willing to or interested in casual sex. So the real factor at play here is that men have lower standards for casual sex. We know that the bar for casual sex literally is any woman that’s not morbidly obese. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 09:04 PM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Another woman here. All of y’all on this particular comment thread are missing the point. You’re not addressing most of the people’s claim (whether it’s accurate or not) that women have higher physical standards for casual sex than for relationships. Either way, the consensus here should be that men and women are selective about different things. Because what these men are saying is they’ll have sex with a woman they aren’t attracted to physically for a relationship. You and I (in other comments… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 08:09 PM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Not sure why you took this as an argument? I’m not trying to make a point. I asked a q out of curiosity. My curiosity specifically being that if one lowers their physical standards for casual sex than for a relationship, would a guy have nothing more than casual sex with a woman attractive enough to date if he could get woman of that degree of attractiveness wanting only sex. The context for my q-I once told a guy I was seeing id like to be fwb after like our second. In my case, I may “fuckzone”… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/22 07:00 PM |
| 2 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.I’m a woman. The thing is it still counts as a lower bar because we’re being less selective on compatibility for something casual than for a relationship. We’re just having a lower bar on different things. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 03:24 PM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.I guess a better q is, are all those wide range of women you find attractive still attractive enough for a relationship if they meet other factors/criteria for one? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 05:55 AM |
| 3 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Let’s put it this way-maybe women have a High bar for looks, but the casual sex bar is lower in that we aren’t gonna care abt sharing the same morals, values, interests, etc. For example, I have a friend who decided to sleep with a muscular, attractive guy willing to date her, but she wouldn’t date him because she required having the same religion as her | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 04:32 AM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Genuine question. If a woman you started to see chose to fuckzone you/a guy, and the guy is down for it, does it mean he wasn’t that attracted to her all along? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 04:25 AM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Well, you’re essentially saying that those men still fit a high physical bar. I think the difference moreso is that women prioritize other things in a relationship while men prioritize looks in a relationship over casual. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 04:23 AM |
| 1 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.But do you really find them attractive if you wouldn’t want a relationship with them on the basis of appearance? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 04:19 AM |
| 3 | Promiscuity has little to do with looks in both men and women.Honestly I’d argue that low self esteem plays a bigger role than unattractiveness in of itself. I’ve known attractive women get into fwb situations with men they have feelings for due to low self esteem. And I’d say even despite comfort with ourselves, sometimes emotional attachment to an individual man gives said man power over us. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/11/22 04:04 AM |

Short men are only as oppressed as the patriarchy they created and benefit from. Still don’t see where I even remotely implied that. I never said men are oppressed but go off.

| 4 | I think all women should have height requirements actually. 😌I don’t see how that one sentence implied that at all? That’s just a way to say their character matters More than height. It feels very “not all men” to take it as an insinuation that tall guys are bad or all short guys are good? She also didn’t say anything about women liking tall guys being shallow. Ofc man or woman, Having preferences doesn’t make one shallow, but body shaming those who don’t fit those preferences are.

Ever occurred to you that maybe it’s insensitive for a non-Jewish person to compare what’s going on here to the Holocaust?

| 1 | The “creepy ugly guy”I guess I was coming from it’s not as simple as consciously giving hot men a free pass, but finding it harder to see through seemingly nice guys who have good charisma.

| 1 | The “creepy ugly guy”I think the person is trying to say that Christian’s behavior, as written by a female author, is wrongfully romanticized (due to his attractiveness) rather than rightfully portrayed as creepy. That is true though.

| 2 | The “creepy ugly guy”Rather than a higher threshold, I think said attractive men (or even regular looking men with a lot of charisma) just know how to manipulate and gain the trust of vulnerable women, or know how to say the right things. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 16/09/21 03:46 AM |

| 10 | The “creepy ugly guy”As a woman, I’ve always hated those kind of feminist tweets too. I think I myself always love those “fall for the underdog” story, regardless of the “underdog’s” gender. On top of that, they’ll complain we never see the “ugly” girl getting the “hot” guy, but once we do, they’ll say that the “ugly” girl is some NLOG “pick me” or complain about the hot girl being mean. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 11/09/21 01:41 AM |

| 1 | What's the best way to be a good advocate online, without sounding like a 'pick me'?It's ironically pretty sexist because it implies women are so inherently selfish that it's not even conceivable a woman would ever speak up for men out of genuine empathy and conviction. It's the female equivalent of calling male feminists "simps" or "white knights". But of course the feminists who use that word are completely blind to that. Omg yes!

Stop giving ugly a chance!I agree with all your points, tho I’d like to point out that for demisexual people they don’t feel sexual attraction without an emotional connection, so personality is enough for them for the sexual attraction to build.

| 1 | Is it just me or is there a mild conspiracy to make women lower their standards of physical attractiveness?You’re correct about body positivity not forcing people to find anyone attractive. But there’s a difference between systematic attraction and individual attraction.

But I find the idea that a brilliant “ugly” woman is less than more offensive than an attractive woman assumed to be dumb.

| -4 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveWhere did I say he respected you (after you brought up him asking you out)? I said he didn’t disrespect you or use you for sex. Clearly, you missed my point that they respect some women more than others, even if you aren’t immune to misogyny. In general, they have respect for more attractive women, and you’re literally claiming it isn’t real because you haven’t seen it. I mean look at gay men like Milo yiannapoulis-he definitely isn’t trying to fuck attractive women. And I never denied the RISK … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 08:18 AM |
| -2 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveThe rare times I see pretty privilege being discussed-I know it includes attractive men and women. You’re reading into the term too literally | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 08:11 AM |
| 0 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveSome of you guys call any women who disagree with you a pickmeisha. What does talking about pretty privilege (in my case I include attractive men and attractive women) to do with impressing men (as if that of all topics would help actual pick mes impress men)? Clearly, you’re incapable of reading between the lines. It’s called being wary of a privilege group, whether it’s wariness of men, white people, pretty people, etc. We are allowed to be wary of and dislike men and white people, but can’t d… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 07:45 AM |
| -7 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveI did one for fun. I usually delete those. And free compliments was created for women uplifting women so... What does that also have to do with my points on pretty privilege? Women wanting to be friends with attractive women is what I see all the time. Just take a look at social media too. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 07:29 AM |
| 3 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveClearly you haven’t read enough studies. There are studies showing that less attractive KIDS suffer childhood abuse (even to the point of getting killed) most (boys and girls). And that parents pay attention to the needs of “cute” children. People care more about attractive people’s death (or preventing it) too. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 07:27 AM |

| 3 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveAgain, the first example is white supremacy and beauty intersecting. They’re respected for being more beautiful, and theyre literally considered more beautiful for their proximity to whiteness. Just because you’ve never heard doesn’t mean it isn’t true. Which again shows blinding to your privilege. If anything, I’ve never seen attractive women get loathed or jealousy from other women-only heard of it online 🤷🏽♀️look on social media, you’ll see women only picking “pretty” friends.

| 5 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveThat obviously goes to intersectionality. Conventionally attractive woc get treated better by white people than conventionally unattractive ones. Yall don’t face racism the same way. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 06:48 AM |
| -10 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveNah, women only want to be friends with attractive women, even if she were to have a horrible personality. The cattiness/jealousy thing is a bs patriarchal stereotype, and basically non-existent. Sorry to burst your bubble. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 06:43 AM |
| 7 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractivePrivileges are job promotions, more friends (especially women), not being judged as weird, people caring about your death (or preventing it) more, and shorter jail sentences. Oh and men want to get in the pants of “less attractive” women because they’re “easy access,” and attractive women are seen as more worthy to marry. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 06:42 AM |
| 8 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveActually pretty privilege intersects with racism very much. POC with light skin and Eurocentric features are much more respected for a reason. Regarding the last one, not everyone’s looks fade. Those who “aged gracefully” are recognized and respected more. About “cheap dick,” it’s attractive women that are seen as worth settling down with, and “unattractive” women that are seen as only “good for fucking” (and completely disrespecting after a one night stand). And let’s talk about how being attra… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 06:35 AM |
| 15 | "Pretty Privilege" is just another proof guys don't care about the women they don't find attractiveThe negative parts you mentioned of being pretty is no different from “white privileged isn’t real because I grew up poor” or men facing toxic masculinity. Even women are more biased to other attractive women-being attractive means more female friendships and acceptance, while less attractive ones are deemed “weird” for things that are a acceptable in you. Also, it very much intersects with racism and sexism. Most of the beautiful people are white or POC with Eurocentric features. As for sexism,… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 06:27 AM |

| 68 | Being single is not an insultHere’s a caveat: yes, we can easily have a man. But the supply of HVM isn’t enough. Also, depending how much attraction matters to you, can be tough to find a man we are attracted to enough that’s also HVM. That being said, being single isn’t an insult. And is more a reflection of the available quality than you 🤷🏽♀️ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/02/21 05:48 PM |
| 3 | “Rape isn’t about sex: it’s about power”I’m pretty sure this has been said by feminists because rape culture sells it being solely about sex and enabling victim blaming (ie what she wore, how she tempted him, etc.). I think it’s true that it’s about sex and power. The power aspect is also just entitlement to the sex. I think bigger than lust/sex is the exertion of aggression and violence, hence why is it a tactic during wars. Or if you look at how abducted women are subject to other various acts alongside r*pe.

| 9 | How I've been feeling.I mean nothing wrong with getting intimate with someone you’re seeing but not serious with yet, especially if it’s on your terms. You can totally be the one to like someone enough to date and sleep with but not see them as long term material. The power is in your hands if they’re short term on your terms. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/02/21 02:01 AM |

| 6 | What's with the spreading of complete lies about fds?This! I made a post few days ago on how just because a woman didn’t continue seeing a man doesn’t mean he was used for a free dinner.

I wish your comment could be automatically replied to all of them. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 27/01/21 12:13 AM |

| 32 | I just realized beauty is power. It is why men have wanted to possess us, as if I'm an object. I might not be as big or strong as men, but I'm powerful through my femininity.I feel like beauty being our power is why our value is based on our looks in the first place. We should be destroying power in order to liberate us. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/01/21 05:29 AM |
| 2 | When you show your trust for a man too early, he'll perceive it as a weakness and either drop you or take advantage of it.It is so scary and sad for someone to break your trust like that. I think it’s definitely a good takeaway to go slowly into opening up to someone. Also remember that you taking a leap of faith and opening up so fast shows you’re human-you had a lot of love and care to give. And you know now to make sure who deserves it ❤️ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 31/12/20 01:06 AM |
