| 7 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadOr you don’t generalize on looks and get to know the person as an individual. Ive known some really really shitty people who are also butt ass ugly on the outside too. In fact, ironically some of the shittiest people ive known are all fairly unattractive. Likewise, ive also known some really down to earth amazing people who are also physically attractive. Looks really has little to no bearing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/11/22 03:59 AM |
| 1 | Cold Approach is useless for 90 percent of men.probably has a glutton for punishment. Depends on perspective. If you have low self worth and view every ‘no’ as a slight against you then then yeah it’s rough but if you view a random telling you no as nothing more than an inconvenience then you’re fine. and we dont know if those 19 converted. Doesn’t matter. You don’t go out with every tinder match either. In fact the rates of that are even lower. Point is you got 19 yeah’s and if even half of them follow through that’s 9 dates. Truthfully non… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 08:41 PM |
| 1 | Cold Approach is useless for 90 percent of men.Not really since he didn’t get rejected by every girl. Dude got 19 yes answers and 81 no’s. Or a 19% success rate. Higher if you subtract the women who were with their boyfriends/girlfriends when he asked. That’s loads better than if he tried his luck on tinder. I do agree you need thick skin tho. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 08:14 PM |
| 0 | Cold Approach is useless for 90 percent of men.Idk. this guy wasn’t remarkably attractive or anything and it worked out decently well for him. In fact his odds were statistically way better than if he downloaded a dating app(anything really will have better odds than that though.) You’re just really playing the numbers game with this strategy and can’t be too picky if you’re going to do it(and aren’t attractive). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 08:09 PM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadYeah maybe. I dunno tho those eyes look like one good jolt from flying right out of her head. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 08:05 PM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadI’m very critical of this woman’s looks. I honestly wouldn’t be saying dick if she wasn’t talking mad shit. Probably wouldn’t even think of her looks at all other than being an unremarkable looking person. She looks normal. Maybe it’s just from being in the bay area but that’s not what normal women look like around me 😂. She’s like a California 4 man. Not butt ugly but definitely a cut below average. That personality tho makes her an easy Cali 2-3. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 11:24 AM |

I see normal looking girls every day and she don’t look like them. If it weren’t for her deciding to shit on ‘ugly dudes’ i wouldn’t be saying anything tbh but she brought it on, so; You could land a plane between her eyes. The space between her eyes looks like it was parted by Moses himself. If she was looking up at you it would look like two fried eggs swimming around in a bowl of $5 rame… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/22 11:10 AM |

| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadIm not saying ban it. By all means if two people want to boink and nothing more than go for it. Just think we put an unhealthy degree towards hookups over more meaningful relationship, and it’s got a role in our more isolated society. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 07:12 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadI don’t necessarily think we should pressure someone. Interestingly enough those marriage happiness studies even hold when you include single divorcees into the mix. So there’s definitely instances particularly when you’ve already experienced a super close relationship before where loneliness and unhappiness is less likely. Can even use me as an example. Of course in hindsight, i do regret having that mindset, but perhaps I needed to do that to get where i am now and perhaps i just would have be… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 05:50 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadWell if my above studies and argumentation is any indication i don’t personally believe it is for either gender. I don’t agree with either MGTOW or this weird idea that there’s a bunch of happy single women boss bitchin’ or WGTOW. We’re social creatures at the end of the day and there’s an abundance of data like that ive already linked that shows finding a happy fulfilling relationship can be a huge factor in not feeling lonely and being happy. I don’t think it’s a great idea to swear off relati… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 05:29 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadYup. Should be a good smattering of both. Don’t go overboard on one aspect while skimping the other. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 05:24 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadI wouldn’t say that as much as it’s just they’re more open about it and are okay supporting each other over it. Also WGTOW definitely exists. here | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 05:20 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadYou literally suggested in your first comment that women being single is “just a lifestyle choice” while men need a movement like MGTOW. That definitely seems like you’re of the belief that single women are somehow not effected by loneliness leading me to link the study that that’s kinda crap and that women are just as lonely as men. And showing you the part that long term romantic relationships or lackthereof has to play in that. If this was never your stance simply correcting me way back then … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 05:14 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat Megathreadwhat biased thinking am i supposed to change That women are somehow more immune to loneliness than men and that there’s some mystical boss bitch movement where women are just choosing to be happily single. You’ve just looked at tons of data proving that this isn’t the case and that women are on average just as lonely as men. If you at all consider yourself to be a rational human being you would not accept that this is bullshit. That it's a good idea to get married just because you're lonely? Who… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 04:27 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat Megathreadthe data has no impact on my judgement So you’re openly admitting you’d rather stick to biased beliefs with no numbers to back it than actual studies showing you how things are. 😂😂😂. Ive seen some delusional people but this is pretty brazen self aware levels of delusion. there’s lots of people out there trying to get into relationships for the wrong reason. Ah so the women in these studies are just “wrong” then for feeling lonely. Got it. You’re just proving my above hypothesis correct that thes… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 04:12 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadEr no, it’s unhealthy because statistically speaking people in general just have higher rates of loneliness when alone as opposed to being partnered up. I really don’t think people are “choosing” to feel loneliness. That’s just cold cut what the numbers show whether you like the data or not. Arguing in favor of statistics is perfectly compelling if you don’t simply want to adhere to your own biases. And there’s just not really a whole lot of numbers and stats supporting the idea that women exper… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 04:04 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadYou seem to be contradicting yourself No im being quite consistent in pointing out that those who do not find relationships are more likely to be lonely and that loneliness rates are equal across genders thus disproving the narrative that women are off being boss bitches while men struggle more with loneliness. But then you state that you prioritized friendships Im not 18 anymore. Re read that paragraph. I was speaking in past tense. Ive since done a lot of maturing am a lot more open to doing t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 03:58 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadRight here. Saw my grandparent’s relationship and the fact that my mother and father didn’t stay together and decided i wanted no part in intimacy. I like to think im recovering now. Im finally at a point where i can admit to myself i want a relationship and am taking steps to be more accepting of it and am meeting more people. Was definitely a slow burn realization over the last 2-3 years. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 03:50 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadNot really. Adults see their friends, what, a few times a week? And then they go back to an empty apartment when the hangout is over, and from experience, an empty apartment feels miles lonelier than one filled with people. Also if you want more causation here, studies also show that marriage is a HUGE predictor of whether or not you are lonely, although id reckon that it’s more the close live in relationship than the marriage itself that matters here since marriage is just a social construct. n… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 03:05 AM |
| 3 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadSure except this has been consistent even in 2018/2019 This isn’t a new problem just due to the pandemic. The world is just simply not filled with ‘boss bitch singles’ while men are off being alone on their own and taking it worse. That’s a feel good myth a lot of people like to tell themselves though. The women I know who don't want a relationship "went their own way" long before 2020. Like...decades ago lol Anecdotes. Also good chance a few of them are more lonely than they let on. Idk about y… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 02:38 AM |
| 4 | Daily Community Chat Megathreadits just a basic life decision. nope Women’s loneliness rates are actually about on par with men’s. And both are scary high and on the rise. The “it’s a lifestyle choice we’re boss bitches” narrative is just a feel good saying for women just as much as MGTOW is a feel good support group for men that helps avoid getting them back on their feet and into the game, since avoidance is much easier than facing ourselves and putti ourselves out there. In actuality the current setup is about as detriment… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 02:30 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadExcept relationships aren’t just about sex. Id hope at least you’re with the person you’re with for more than just sex. That would be one lonely relationship otherwise. Relationships, at least successful ones, are BIG on companionship and you two being close emotionally as well as physically. And relationhips and/or marriages are often found to have FAR less loneliness rates than people who are not in them This particularly goes for later in life when people see their friends less and less often… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 02:16 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadId agree in the sense that it just has you playing all avenues, but as far as a decent tool to meet people only about 50% of Tinder users ever even meet people they match with off the app and only about half of the 50% ever find someone there. Other apps shockingly have even worse rates. With Hinge in particular for all the love it gets on reddit only boasting a 6% relationship rate among it’s internal stats. So the numbers don’t particularly agree with it even being a solid tool for meeting fol… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 01:23 AM |
| 3 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadGiven loneliness rates in modern culture it will actually be a bad thing for both genders in general unless depression, loneliness, and an increase in mental health disorders sound like net benefits to you. Humans are social creatures. The current loneliness epidemic is not really a ‘good thing’ or a ‘great idea’. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 01:20 AM |
| 4 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadHonest feedback here: Delete it if you want a boyfriend/girlfriend. Relationship odds on a dating app are slim(albeit higher for a woman) and the apps all have invested interest in keeping you on the app for as long as possible. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/22 01:17 AM |

Im in much better shape now actually, look better(all my friends agree on that), and even dress better lol. My looks were definitely not the deciding factor for that one. At least not from my perspective. Im being dead serious i have zero clue why a girl like that was into me at that point in my life.

I was nice enough towards her back and talked to her a lot but was so massively depressed at the time and dealing with so much crap between starting to look for another job and my grandfather dying that i decided that I shouldn’t try anything with her since it would be unfair to her.

One of the prettiest girls to try and go after me during college came during a time when i was super low earning and MASSIVELY depressed and feeling bad about myself. When my earnings went up 7x since then and i became super happy for a while? Yeah i had nothing lmao. A few teenagers flirting with me here and there(i look young for my age.

They’re not really enjoying this any more than men and the idea that we have a bunch of branch swingers and “gal power single women happy with their single lives” is bullshit. If you really want to look for an enemy you have a few, but they’re generally not women: 1) The dating app industry. They’ve commodotized our dating lives and are influenced to keep is single and on the apps longer. You’re best off d… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 02:55 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadAnecdotes can be fact. You saying that you went to a wedding can absolutely be fact but it’s an anecdotal fact. Same as using “there are 6,200 marriages a day” as your yardstick here is also anecdotal since it just relies on the fact that 6,200 people get married a day while ignoring the fact that far less people get married in general than we did previously. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 02:48 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadAnecdotal. Again pointing to the findings i linked above marriages are literally at an all time low right now. 6,200 a day sounds impressive until you dig into it and find that again only 29% of 18-34 year olds are married and at an all time low down from 59% in prior generations. Again this would be okay if we instead saw lots of LTR’s since later marriage ages isn’t particularly bad but we don’t even see that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 02:43 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadMarriage has little to do with church in the last few decades and has increasingly more to do with the law and has plenty of legal benefits including tax breaks and the ability to see each other in the hospital. As someone who generally opposes marriage and is agnostic id definitely get one myself if i found my person and we started getting old together, the tax breaks are too lucrative to pass up and id hate for one us to have a hard time visiting the other if we were in the hospital. Estate pl… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 02:36 AM |
| 2 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadIm not really arguing that everyone hooks up all the time moreso the fact that’s what most people want. I also wouldn’t define the % of people hooking up every weekend as a good stat for the number of people participating. You can definitely be a participant in hookup culture, not want and actively reject relationships, but not actually get any every weekend and instead get it just every so often. This is definitely backed up by a record low in marriages in the US. with the level of 18-34 year o… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 02:06 AM |
| 2 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadNope. Humans are most definitely pair bonders and are far from the only primate there is that does. Our whole gestation cycle lends to that idea too with the mother being debilitated for almost a year just by having the kid, plus our long childhoods also lend more to the idea of a family unit and ancient man sticking around to provide for the impregnated mother and eventually the small relatively defenseless child and less towards ancient man fucking and leaving right away. Besides the whole fac… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 01:49 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadHonestly this is the best advice ive seen on reddit for dating in ages. In person socializing for meeting literally can’t be beat and is still where the overwhelming majority of relationships start. Dating apps have invested interest in keeping you on the platform, have inbalanced demographics and low relationship rates across the board. You’d be betting on a 20ish% chance of ever meeting someone you go long term with if you forgoe every other means of meeting people. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/22 01:45 AM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadHinge actually statistically has some of the lowest relationship rates. Something like 6% if you go off their stats. If you must use an app Tinder ironically has some of the best relationship rates. But to be honest both are owned by the same company so you’re just feeding the same beast with a different mask at the end of the day. You’re either really good looking or for whatever reason your profile is liked better by Hinge’s algorithm right now than the other apps. Or a mix of both. Either way… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/11/22 08:59 PM |

And of those that didn’t many may have been gay/les(when it was way less acceptable and you didn’t get married), partnered but not believing in the concept of marriage, or so debilitated mentally that the concept of a relationship is just not possible to have(low functioning autistic people, Downs, severe cerebral palsy, etc.).

| 4 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadSerial monogamy is still monogamy though. You still are with a romantic partner for an extended period of time. Often times years. Hookup culture denies that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/11/22 11:01 PM |
| 3 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadYeah but loneliness rates skyrocketing alongside declining monogamy/relationship rates and increase of late term virginity insinuates that abandoning monogomy altogether has had bad effects on society as a whole. So we honestly do have a solid argument for that beyond nature tbh. While arguments for nature are generally bad so are arguments assuming that since abandoning nature has led to some good things abandoning nature is always good. Sometimes following nature is just genuinely the better o… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/11/22 11:00 PM |

| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadWe raised a few generation of kids with the expectation that they’re all special and deserve everything in life just for existing. We gave them participation trophies instead of pointing out genuine hard work.

| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadLots of people frustrated/lonely and looking for some kind of answer as to why we’re not pairing up like our fathers and mothers did would be my guess. I don’t think it’s purely correlation that these movements rose with the uptick of loneliness, the rise of the internet, and downfall of the LTR. Hopefully we all figure this out as a generation though, and i think ditching dating apps and socializing in our communities more would be an amazing first step. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/22 08:01 PM |
| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadThat much is true. I think the helicoptor parent movement which led to a rise in narcissism in the west really did some damage here. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/22 07:58 PM |
| 2 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadWe’ve been doing it for over two millennia just from recorded history now in the vast majority of cultures. And we were much happier and less lonely as a society when we did pair. That seems artificial Not really we wouldn’t even be the only creatures in the animal kingdom that do it either.

| 0 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadI actually think feminism has little to do with it. We’ve multiple had huge feminist movements across the last century without significant upticks in loneliness/lack of pairing up. The loneliness trend didn’t start till 2009, or roughly around the time internet adoption skyrocketed and we were connected with smart phones 24/7. Social media is definitely a contributor though too in making us just less social in general therefore not meeting our basic needs. I also think dating apps are a scourge … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/22 07:46 PM |
| 2 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadTPB too it seems. The ‘hookup culture works for women, yay feminism, it’s only men who are lonely, we’re happily single’ narrative is pretty strong to despite loneliness rates across both genders smashing that narrative to bits. Personally i think both camps are idiots. Nobody’s happy with hookup culture/non-monogomy. It’s just that a lot of people don’t want to admit it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/22 07:40 PM |
| 0 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadMore recently it’s also being reported among younger generations(see my links) in both genders. So a lot of the women who say they just want to fuck and that they never wanna settle down clearly are full of shit. I think the all time lows in marriages/LTR’s in the younger generation are largely to blame. Everything from the human gestation cycle to long childhoods suggests that we’re social pairing creatures.

| 2 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadWe are hardwired to be monogomous. Everything from the human gestation cycle to humans having long childhoods suggests that we are hardwired to pair up. On top of all of that the fact that we crave intimate relationships and feel jealousy proves that that’s something we’re meant to do as well. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/10/22 07:24 PM |
| 3 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadLoneliness rates would suggest that you’re right. As much as the media would like to focus in male loneliness some studies have found that women tend to be more lonely More comprehensive ones find that men and women have pretty much equal rates of loneliness. There’s literally no difference and no, we don’t have a bunch of happy confidently single women out there like a lot of people like to say.

Im on the path of option 1 so far right now and have come to the realization that even if i acheive all of that it would be pretty sad to never try and have a partner, and long term im inviting loneliness as more of my friends get involved in long term relationships. If i had a little more leeway id ditch the 6 kids bit at least though, that’s excessive. If i have any it’s 1-2. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/10/22 04:09 AM |
| – | Daily Community Chat MegathreadMisses the point though. Post wasn’t so much pointing out hypocrisy or bashing feminism but more pointing out that despite the focus on men’s loneliness in popular media, women are statistically just as lonely as men and seem to be just as affected by our more lonely, less intimate and social modern world, contrary to what a lot of feminists like to say.

| – | Daily Community Chat MegathreadA lot of feminists point to the talked about “male loneliness” stats and boast that they are doing so much better and even tout it as a victory for feminism. It’s a fun narrative but doesn’t seem true. in reality, loneliness rates are effectively equal across both genders and actually very high and rising. A look at virginity rates too shows that the later in life virginity rates are also close and rising for both men and women with 13% of women 25+ still reporting as virgins and some 14% of men… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/10/22 02:16 AM |
| 1 | For all this talk of “the Wall”, I think in big cities (certainly London in my experience), men need to be alive to the fact that there are a lot of women out there who are totally fine with remaining single well into their thirties and potentially foreverStudies actually show that loneliness rates are about equal between men and women, and both are pretty high and rising lately. So when you penetrate deeper than the loud ruling narrative it doesn’t seem like women truly are any less lonely than men in this regard and crave companionship more than loud narratives suggest, again at about an equal rate to men. In fact given how staggeringly high it is id even reckon many of the women you’re meeting are just not that vocal about loneliness struggles… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/10/22 01:45 AM |

| 1 | Why do you guys care this much about dating or sex or whatever?This "couple" things is NOT what will make us feel any less lonely. As someone with lots of friends i disagree. There’s something about cuddling up with your partner and just knowing you have someone you care about above almost every other person and vice versa that being friends with someone, even really close friends just doesn’t fulfill. I lived with as much as 15 people for years in a house. Some became close friends but mostly, it was family like. We were like a pack. Well, I never cared so… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/10/22 01:06 AM |
| 1 | Why do you guys care this much about dating or sex or whatever?Id say a long term committed relationship goes beyond primal needs. Marriage and companionship is man made. We are definitely wired to want it but to the complexity that we have it now is definitely not necessaey. It’s just simply put a big part of human existence. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/10/22 01:03 AM |

| 1 | Daily Community Chat MegathreadIve said this before but most women(those you see IRL) are far less concerned with looks than men. It’s a small percentage of women who are super picky in that regard. And they generally are the minority that gravitate towards dating apps. For me ive just noticed the average women ive had be interested in me that ive met in real life is decently more attractive than the average woman i match with on dating apps, definitely to a noticable amount. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/10/22 08:02 PM |

| 1 | We need to stop shaming younger women who like getting attention from older menAgain im going to re iterate here since stats is clearly not your strong suit: Please take a stats class. Your mathematic reasoning is very fundamentally flawed here and it’s clear you don’t get how any of this works. You can’t take a stat that is representative among all marriages or even stats that include a broader range than your initial group and apply it so a stat that is focused within certain demographic limitations.

That what I’ve been trying to tell you…If a five year gap causes 18% higher divorce rates…yeah, despite “self reports of secure attachment style”, I’m guessing someone wasn’t happy. Please take a stats course.

| 1 | We need to stop shaming younger women who like getting attention from older menAh you still haven’t figured out why that mathematical reasoning is inherently flawed. That’s not how stats work, and again im really puzzled how you’re coming to this conclusion. Again please take a stats class and learn how sample sizes and gathering data within certain demographics works. Because by your logic, an 18% higher divorce rate should be inherently impossible to begin with when age gap relationships in general among hetero couples only comprise of 15% of ALL marriages. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/10/22 09:23 PM |
| 1 | The claim that the recent dramatic rise of sexless men is directly caused by the rise of financially and/or sexually liberated women does not track with reality.I don’t think a lot of folks would donate to a dating apps just because they met their spouse there.

| 1 | We need to stop shaming younger women who like getting attention from older menI mean I think it’s fairly safe to say that a satisfied marriage is not likely to end in divorce and relationship happiness has been the whole thesis of my point.

| 1 | We need to stop shaming younger women who like getting attention from older menYou should probably do research into what attachment styles are. Securely attached couples are pretty much synonymous with happy. You can’t be nor will you be securely attached with someone you’re neither close to or not happy with.

Marriage rates in the 18-54 age group are down from 67% in 1990 to just 59% today and among younger 18-34 age groups(more accurately encompassing the zoomers) just 30% are married.

| 1 | The feud between RP men and alpha feminists is unnecessaryBecause you’re speaking from anecdotal experience. One person and the people she’s likely to hang out with/attract does not make a trend. Fact of it is though that the current sexlessness/marriage and relationship decline did not begin to take off until ‘08 and didn’t hit it’s stride till the 2010’s. And clearly you were more open to LTR’s then you say as you eventually met and agreed to marry your husband.

But if I too as a man am primarily only really attracted to feminine semi curvy-slim women with long hair then you also can’t really call a man out for only really finding those traits attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 09:01 PM |
| 1 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?This was back in 2014/15 and we were both 18 at the time, so no. Both young, and before facebook was abandoned by the younger generations. As for the rest i’ve seen it from everything from women ive met in classes randomly as well and ive jumped social circles once or twice in that time frame. Even had one ‘best friend’(have it in quotes because i really doubt she was that to me now.) pursue me for probably 5-6 years very indirectly never once asking me out. She did get kinda sorta direct toward… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 08:41 PM |
| 2 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Can’t say ive experienced that. Every woman who’s ‘made the first move’ with me has kept it incredibly subtle. Most direct ive gotten was a “are we ever gonna hang out/do something?” Over FB. Which i suppose is kinda asking out but still puts the emphasis on me to actually do the asking and make the plan, and is indirect enough for it to be interpreted as literally just hanging out(which is precisely how i interpreted it). So i don’t really count it tbh. I do believe it’s more common than ever b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 08:24 PM |
| 3 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Yeah but the thing is when the man does it he will eventually ask the woman out and intends to. The woman does not. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:46 PM |
| 9 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Id even argue most are not ugly. Incelfies was filled with above average and average men. Even a few very attractive dudes. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:44 PM |
| 13 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Yeah that’s incel’s main killer imo; their crushingly low self esteem and inability to accept any compliments or positive affection. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:35 PM |
| 14 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?That’s the thing though. Back when the incels and more specifically the incelfies sub was still around the one thing that struck me the hardest was the sheer amount of above average/average/good looking guys there were identifying this way. Few of them are ugly. I could see very many of them being able to have girlfriends very easily just in the looks department. Looks aren’t really a deciding factor for most incels. Also from my experience, women are far less picky IRL than online. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:25 PM |
| 7 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Saying it’s more common than ever before is pretty moot though when ‘before’ was practically 0. I do agree though that yes it’s for sure larger but it’s not anywhere near a significant majority. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:21 PM |
| 0 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Fair enough. Yeah id probably be less likely to do it now. So that’s true. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:20 PM |
| 1 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?You can’t really count all of history though. Through much of the middle ages and ancient times the average life expectancy was like 30, and men were commonly enslaved and sent to brutal wars that led to many of their deaths when they were barely in their teens. No children doesn’t necessarily mean no sex or companionships either. Id be much more interested in that statistic both in the last 10 and 100 years. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:17 PM |
| 1 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Eh this is kind of bullshit. Ive most certainly done this before. Woman’s friend asked me directly if i liked her friend and in the hear of the moment i said ‘no’. We had been on 2 ‘dates’ by that point and had been talking for about 3 or so months. I really regret doing it too. I was just 18 and never been in that position before. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 05:14 PM |
| 16 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?That’s not really common though. Most women would never be that bold. Most who do ‘make the first move’ would initiate the conversation and leave subtle ques but otherwise leave the actual asking to the man. Seen it on more than one occaision. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 04:54 PM |
| 22 | If women approached men more, would there be less men identifying as incels?Not really though. A woman’s idea of approaching a dude is walking up and saying hi and sending subtle ques most of the time. That’s not going to be effective for a lot of more rational incels due to lower self esteem, they’re probably more likely to rationalize that away as “oh she’s just being nice.” I think OP means more a very direct approach(i.e. asking them out.), which women don’t really do all that commonly. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 04:39 PM |
| 3 | When women find most men ugly, it's because they overrate their own attractiveness due to desperate men and the added benefit of makeupIm of the firm opinion that men need to raise their standards. Would go a long way to helping correct this. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 10:15 AM |
| 1 | Why do RP guys try to shame women for desiring top 20% men?Math dictates then that 6/8 women in this bracket will too though. That’s the funniest part. Short term instant gratification/hopefulness will bite both genders in the ass in the long run. We just haven’t gotten to that part yet with this generation. And by then men will have the advantage since older men can pick up younger women easier. Especially if they’ve been turned down by their own age bracket earlier, why bother later when a younger age bracket is perfectly available and willing? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 10:04 AM |
| 1 | Why do RP guys try to shame women for desiring top 20% men?Do the math for a minute and come back here. If 8 women want the hottest 2 guys and will settle for no less then math dictates that at least 6 of them will leave this outcome unhappy and without anyone in 10 or so years. It’s not so much shaming as much as it’s just so easy to ridicule because of how short sighted and ridiculous they are about it, and it’s not even rocket science! those 2 guys can’t marry them all. I mean fuck man id love a bikini model with giant boobs and a skinny waist, but k… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 10:00 AM |
| 1 | Mamas boys are easily the least datable personality type of man imaginable, and it's not talked about nearly enoughI live at home. Ive done my own laundry since i was 13 or so, i do nearly all the cooking, pay a portion of rent, assist with cleaning when need be, and will be attending college in January. Im leveraging my situation to build a crap ton of wealth for someone my age. Not all people who live at home have their parents do everything for them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 09:25 AM |
| 1 | Mamas boys are easily the least datable personality type of man imaginable, and it's not talked about nearly enoughI live in this economy too, in the infamously pricey west coast, at 25, on minimum wage, working 40 hours a week. I have two roommates and I don't even own a car and can't drive but I make it work. Im sorry to be the bearer of bad news here but no, you’re not making it work. You just don’t see it yet. It will become more evident to you in 20 years or so when it’s probably far too late. You’re paying your bills and are surviving. That’s it. But your 401k is almost certainly paltry if your job eve… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/10/22 08:41 AM |
