It’s the ones who don’t fuck off when you tell them too.

All im sayin is if a dude is being weird tell him to fuck off. It’s 2024. Stop placating creeps.

Im not victim blaming. Im just saying that if you’re uncomfortable. Say something. Loudly. You and your friends. Shame these dudes into learning a lesson. I’m a guy and it’s hard for me sometimes to know when my lady friends/family want a guy to be around. I’m like (creep alert) but I guess go ahead and give the old ass creepy Uber driver your number Tina…

Where are you hanging out? Lol you need to go to a more enlightened area where the men aren’t all psychos. You’re simultaneously saying that saying a clear no doesn’t work. But then it DOES work magically when your friend says it? Math ain’t mathing. It’s more likely the first person was not so clear and the second person was. If these guys were all true criminals then why did they listen to the Second Lady?
/r/PurplePillDebate26/03/24 08:39 PM

You think I’ve never encountered someone bigger than me who wants to beat me up or rob me? Gtfo… I don’t believe there’s that many psychos out there trying to take advantage of women. Likely a clear statement of disinterest will do.

I don’t reckon they have. Then again maybe I just hang around good guys who know how to take a hint. Surround yourself with better people I guess.

In my experience it was the opposite. I don’t know how many times I’ve been in a situation where I probably could have gotten laid but instead I just said “have a lovely evening” only to get a confused text later on about whether I was interested or not.

Complimenting a necklace and gently grazing their neck while you examine it. Excellent litmus test for after you’ve touched her arm and such. Not quite as intimate as a thigh but also not totally innocent.

Early dating game is all about plausible deniability. Substitute “you’re beautiful” for “wow I like your style, that dress (with the obviously seductive neck line) really suits you” substitute “I’ve been thinking about you” for “let’s do X (activity that you mentioned in a past convo) together” substitute “I want to kiss you” for brushing a lock of hair out of their face and an obvious longing glance at their mouth. It’s feels wrong as it goes against everything they teach kids about interaction…

Any behavior that contradicts the masculine archetype. Men are “supposed” to be proficient (and unpaid) carpenters and mechanics from 5pm to 9pm. Where I get bummed is that there is no pushback on this, it’s just accepted. While there would CERTAINLY be pushback if someone said women are “supposed” to be domestic chore machines from 5pm-9pm.

People are simultaneously outraged at the lack of normal interaction in public and outraged that someone has the audacity to “bother” them in a public space. What is it? Do we all want more community or less community l? I’m for random small talk with strangers, men and women.

Exactly. I feel like as a man I don’t bring it up with anyone man or woman because I feel like it puts people in this competition mindset. For men it’s a pissing contest and with women it feels like bragging or trying to prove something. If you’re proud about what you do? Gush please I want to hear it. But I’m not going to ask it feels like prying.

That’s a great question. It has always frustrated me that you’re supposed to be super concise all the time. People get bored with details. Unfortunately I think everyone can agree, the devil is in the details. It doesn’t lend itself to clear communication at all.

Honestly I don’t think so. Even the most woke blue pill type people I know have very standard gender roles in their relationships. Many modern enlightened, femenist, power women I know still wish they had man who does arbitrary “man shit”.

If you were taught your whole life not to sexualize women and not to acknowledge your own sexual nature, then anyone who is comfortable doing so looks like an “asshole”. Watching someone do the things you were always taught are “wrong” but then succeeding is going to rub you the wrong way. Women do it too, they shame girls who are “pick mes” for being too available, seemingly feigning interest in football or whatever. Then they get upset that the “cool girl” has lots of male attention. Pick mes …

Dating is like fishing. The fanciest lure don’t mean shit if it ain’t in the water. I’ve got some beauts on a bare hook and worm, and I’ve caught some on a $10 rapala. Sometimes you get nothing, sometimes you lose your lure. But ya gotta keep risking it to eventually catch something. Can’t just accrue an arsenal of equipment and call yourself an angler.

Ahhhh but in our closest relatives it is the socially adept males that tend to have the longest reigns as “alphas” because a cabal of chimps that are homies are stronger than one extra large extra violent chimp. Also it’s common for males who are antisocial or overly violent within the tribe to be ostracized or killed. Furthermore, in our other close relatives, Bonobos, matriarchs lead the tribe. Bonobos have a longer period of obscured sexual receptivity (like humans). Promiscuity plus the lack…

I find that plausible deniability in flirting is a way “good guys” can exploit this preference. Never say she’s hot but compliment her outfit and then say the dress (with the plunging neckline) “suits her” with a sly smile. Use double entendre and innuendo but never directly say anything about her body or features. Touch her as soon as possible in some harmless way, and proceed to more intimate touches if she plays along. It may be obvious to some but to me growing up I was like I will not sexua…

I disagree that it’s evolutionary. I think it’s a dangerous idea to say that being a violent dickhead is “natural” or “evolutionarily advantageous” likely easier attributed to culture than biology.

Yeah I’m often confronted with “why is it women’s fault that the dating market is the way it is” To which my reply is usually that it’s no one’s “fault” per se, yet it is the individuals choice to either choose a partner based on wisdom and logic, or based off a arbitrary social norm that was baked into you as a kid.

I get it. I was always handsome, smart, and destined for something. Due to the consequences of where I grew up I was a loser. Where I grew up being smart, fit, well dressed, soccer player was synonymous with “gay”. Now I realize that I was always desired but I never allowed myself to believe it. But the damage was done, I always viewed myself as a skinny nerd. So now that I know what to look for and how to take advantage of my blessings I am a little jaded as to what people find “hot” or “cool”.…

In the end. All that matters is how you are perceived by other people. You can say you’re a wonderful person and you don’t need validation from others but nobody will believe that you’re a wonderful person without social proof. It’s stupid and clearly goes against modern sensibilities about mental health and such but even a therapist would be like why doesn’t anyone like you? It seems you’re not giving me the whole story…. They may not say it in a session but it’s a human reaction.

This is where I take issue. Both green light scenarios are with people you already know and presumably have had sex with. How did you get there without ever communicating your sexual intent?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/03/24 08:47 PM

Yeah my point is you gotta start somewhere. My favorite trick is to touch a girl (somewhere innocuous) and see if she recoils. But this is wrong full stop. Depending on who you ask. In my experience if a girl lets you touch her neck or hair, you’re in there like swimwear.

America seems to be rampant with “feminists” who are all fired up to chat about issues but then only find one very specific (masculine, traditional) type of guy as attractive. Where as in Norway I’ve heard women are much more modern in terms of shaking traditional gender roles. Splitting bills, breadwinner roles etc.

Nobody interacts face to face anymore. Even when in public people act like it’s rude to say hello or try to chat with a stranger. I’m talking not even in a non sexual way. Like people don’t talk to each other period. A group of friends goes to the bar, for the most part stare at their phones and don’t even talk amongst each other, let alone a kind stranger. Get out there and small talk with each other! Doesn’t need to be super heady life changing discussion.

I still think you gotta be clever, you can’t say “nice jugs” but you can say “lovely dress, it DEFINITELY suits you” that’s still gentlemanly but it’s a very thinly veiled way of saying “I’m interested” and not in a platonic kinda way.

I’m saying a vast majority of women, no matter what they say, are attracted to a traditional masculine archetype. Even feminists and blue pillars and “modern” independent women.

Word. My take is that people are generally decent and nobody is so bad as to be good for nothing. Of course if you want to lose your v card but you’re 500lbs with no job, work on that, of course if you tend to lose your mind and love bomb a friend after being rejected by her, work on that. But if you’re genuinely decent. Then flaunt what you got, be confident, make it obvious you like a girl, don’t be afraid to be passionate and express your feelings. Yes, even lusty or romantic feelings.

I think this illustrates the issue. A “nice guy” might have successes and accolades that would impress women but he’s always heard women say how much they want a humble and self aware guy.

Yeah I think the terms don’t really match up to describe the phenomena. I think a lot of “nice guys” are good people who aren’t whining and going crazy if a girl doesn’t like them back.

This is so frustrating. Just admit that there is certain social programming that we all have. If you want to have the highest probability of success then you need to conform to a specific masculine archetype.

“Knows how to flirt and build tension” This is a major problem I see. Flirting and building tension are things I think men in a certain age group were strongly discouraged from doing. But if you completely disregard all that social programming, and just flirt with everyone constantly, playfully tease, and touch people, you will get better and have more success.

I understand the frustration when it comes to hypocrisy. Just like I understand women’s complaints about certain hypocrisy in men’s general preferences. For instance a lot of guys who are womanizers do not a good partner make. So there is a grain of truth in there about making poor choices in partner.

I think everyone is a little too focused on finding a perfect partner. I look at it this way, a good deal is one where both sides make concessions but end up net positive. If one side makes zero concessions and receives all the goodies, that’s not a deal, that’s a swindle job.

I just think it only a problem if it is a problem and you should be honest with yourself about exactly how much you do and how much your partner does.

You’re already stating that one should attempt to interact in a friendly way with strangers in public. I’m just extending that to ladies you fancy. I think we agree on almost everything except I think it’s fine to hit on anyone anywhere as long as you’re a decent person and a gentleman. I think disregarding your advice does two things, instantly sets you apart as a bold and confident, and just skyrockets the number of opportunities and experiences you will get.

Important caveat I’ll admit. So long as you are a gentleman and a good person I don’t think you can really go wrong. To your point about looks, I still think it’s important to aim high. So long as you are a gentleman. If you get rejected it’s only humiliating if you allow it to be. Thick skin and some humor can ease that pain and sometimes… SOMETIMES. Snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

I agree that it’s better to hit on girls you are already acquainted with and in your communities. I disagree that there’s somehow something wrong with speaking to people in public. The crux of my argument is that even to get the women in your circles interested, you will need to boldly display interest in some way. Flirt, touch, hold eye contact for an extended period, make a bawdy joke and see how they react. This kind of thing is probably considered rude and “asshole-ish” by many, yet, these a…

Fairness is another word you could use. If my partner is busy doing chores I feel bad sitting around being a blob. I think that’s a good thing, it’s holding up my end of the “bargain” or striving for fairness. Transaction in my opinion is only a dirty word if someone is getting swindled.

I think there’s a certain validity to some of the gripes. The biggest thing I take issue with is people who espouse modern sensibilities about dating but haven’t actually done the work to shake some of the bad tendencies. Men who demand chastity yet want to put as many notches in their belt as possible. Women who demand modern sensibilities and then get turned off when their boyfriend does something that’s not perfectly masculine.

I just don’t know how you would change the system so what’s wrong with appealing to the things that people seem to prefer right now. The frustrating part about it is that I find most women are still partial to the stereotypical masculine archetype, yet many will adamantly insist that that is not the case. Many women still want to be confidently approached and courted, yet many will say that that is a lame or somehow inappropriate way to meet a lady.

I completely agree by the way. I wasn’t trying to be flippant. I think your stance illustrates an issue.

Yes I think that there’s a lot of men who struggle with dating but are confused because they have solid relationships with women in their family, friend group, work etc. but can’t seem to get laid or a girlfriend. I think it’s because young men for a long time were really discouraged to show their sexual or romantic side. It was something heavily shamed in men in my age group. Only one way to get laid and that is to make a sexual advance. If you don’t feel comfortable doing that because of inter…

Red pill is all about maximizing your potential based on the most general attraction triggers and appealing to those most general preferences and biases.

I think it’s naive to pretend that men and women don’t have certain biases that are not aligned with the modern sensibilities. Empirically hard to prove levels of dissatisfaction in a relationship, especially when people are afraid of being judged for their shallow preferences or biases.

Exactly. I’ve seen people work through it but not before some serious work to overcome the mental hurdle. We can argue whether it’s natural or social programming.
