It’s just hard to believe - and sad - that a modern country lost so much social progress so quickly. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 11:44 AM |

| – | 6 Green Flags in women for a LTR, do you agree?Except not all parents love their children. My own father told me when I was 17 that he didn’t love me, and he made sure I didn’t forget that. So, right after high school I got my first job and moved into an apartment with my sister and a friend of her’s. I haven’t spoken to my father in almost 10 years because of how he used to beat us, and outright told us that he regretted having us. We were just bills for him to pay. Am I really such a terrible woman for removing that man from my life? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 08:54 AM |
| – | Do Modern Relationships Need Each Person to Play a Role, and If so, What Role Does Either Gender Fulfill?Those women are abusive; their behaviour isn’t normal. Are you sure most couples you know are like this? Because most of the couples I know don’t treat each other this way. I’ve known only a few couples that abused each other like this, and those relationships have already ended/they’re divorced now. How is it most couples you know are abusive like this? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 07:03 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?I agree - your expectations sound fair to me. I’ve noticed that lot of women hate it when when their spouse/SO watches porn, too. I don’t understand why though. As long as my boyfriend doesn’t start signs of addiction or exclusively get off on porn instead of having sex with me, then I don’t care. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 06:27 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?Okay, I think I understand you. Yes, a healthy sex life is important in marriage. If marry someone with a similar sex drive, then I doubt lacking sex would be a problem. But it’s also important to remember that we’re all humans, and sometimes your spouse just might not be in the mood. (From stress during a hard time, being exhausted because of some work related stress). It’s important to respect them when they say no occasion. But if they completely stop having sex with you and leave you sexuall… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 06:01 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?What do you mean by expecting sex? I’m asking because I want to make sure we’re on the same page on what that means. To me, “expecting sex/sex is owed” reminds me of things my father said. He also believes that women are dangerous and should be the property of their husbands. Like, word for word said that. He even told me that if my future husband hits me, I probably did something to deserve it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 05:48 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?I’m a feminist and I don’t think sex is owed in marriage either. But if your spouse starts withholding sex all the time and leaves you unsatisfied, you’re well within you right to leave them. In a healthy marriage, the couple satisfies each other sexually but sex still isn’t owed. You shouldn’t expect sex from you partner if they’re sick or your wife just gave birth, for example. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 05:39 AM |
| 2 | If there is so few women who are fit for LTR, a tiny % of women are swamped with offers from HVM. Who are these women?Oh, I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with that! If anything, I think your coworker’s reaction was immature and disrespectful. I was just wondering why you think “meaningful” tattoos are weird. That kind of thing is normal when people commission other art pieces, so it makes sense that meaningful tattoos are common. (Granted, meaningful doesn’t mean their tattoo isn’t tacky or cringe. The most common “meaningful” tattoos look bad, or they’re boring or cringe.) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 04:31 AM |
| – | If there is so few women who are fit for LTR, a tiny % of women are swamped with offers from HVM. Who are these women?Why is it weird when someone gets tattoos that are meaningful? When people commission artwork, they usually want a piece that’s meaningful to them. So, it makes sense that this would translate to body art. I’m not saying that “meaningful” tattoos can’t be tacky, cringe or just straight up garbage. Low quality tattoos are more common, too. But if you find a really good tattoo artist, the end result can be an excellent piece that’s meaningful to the commissioner. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 03:05 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?“A death not chosen is most certainly a punishment.” Normally I would agree, and that’s why I draw that line at 24 weeks of gestation. I can only condone abortions performed before the fetus has developed and is considered viable. I’m not OK with aborting for any reason. I believe abortions are only justified if severe medical issues are detected that will result in the child having a short, sickly life or defects that will prevent the child from becoming self sufficient and they’ll require life… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 02:48 AM |
| – | If there is so few women who are fit for LTR, a tiny % of women are swamped with offers from HVM. Who are these women?Are most tattoos basic and poor quality? I agree and that’s an instant turn off. But I’ve seen tattoo artists produce genuinely beautiful pieces. Usually clients high quality tattoos aren’t just trend chasers, and I’ve met plenty of people with tattoos that aren’t promiscuous. I have only been with two men - both LTR’s and I’m currently with the second - and I’m planning to get a couple of tattoos someday. (After vetting for a quality artist.) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 02:06 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?The problem here is that the taking of a human life isn’t always considered murder by society. It’s the job of the courts to look at each situation individually, and they don’t always rule taking a human life as murder. Second, death is not always a punishment. I don’t view the aborted fetus as being punished - it’s pragmatic. We should be taking quality of life into more consideration; allowing the mother/parents to terminate a pregnancy before the fetus is viable - before 24 weeks - is the bes… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/12/21 01:17 AM |

How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?I said that I support aborting unwanted pregnancies before the fetus is viable because unwanted kids are more likely to be abused. I agree that we should address abuse and neglect; but until our country actually fixes our foster care system and actually address child abuse, it makes more sense to let the mother terminate an unwanted pregnancy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/12/21 04:31 PM |

But there’s no sense in forcing a woman that doesn’t want them/children to give birth. Unwanted children are often abused or neglected. Why put children through that?

| 1 | 41% of women would go on a date with someone who voted for the opposing candidate, compared to 67% of men. Why do you think this is? How will this affect relationships when a majority of men are republicans and a majority of women are democrats?Ending a human life isn’t always murder. Sometimes it’s justified; that determined in court. I think it’s kinder to the child to abort if the mother doesn’t want them. Repeated abortions can damage a woman’s reproductive organs and make her infertile. If a woman that doesn’t want kids keeps getting knocked up because she’s irresponsible, then she deserves the resulting health issues from repeated abortions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/12/21 02:22 PM |

Of course it’s a human developing in the womb. Why should a woman that doesn’t want the kid be forced to give birth? They won’t make good parents, and no child deserves to be raised by someone that doesn’t want them. My grandmother got knocked up with a baby she didn’t want (my dad).

Aborting a child that would require lifelong caretakers and expensive healthcare because I think giving birth to someone that will never be able to survive with a caretaker is cruel to the child. Many of those of them end up in poorly staffed facilities with abusive staff as adults is not aborting a child for convenience. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/12/21 12:54 AM |

It wasn’t a role specific to women, but sure, it’s something women did, too. While yes, women handled a lot of the child rearing.

| 1 | Feminism and wokeness has completely neutered and crippled many men, afraid to be seen as a "bad guy" for having any spine at all in their relationshipI’ve been a lurker on Reddit for a while, and only recently started posting (soon after finding this sub Reddit). When I say online, I mean on Facebook when I was a regular user. I’m sorry your exposure to feminism has been so negative. My experiences with other feminists are sometimes negative, sometimes positive. Online it’s rarely positive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/21 11:50 AM |
| 1 | Feminism and wokeness has completely neutered and crippled many men, afraid to be seen as a "bad guy" for having any spine at all in their relationshipThey didn’t say that you have poor social skills because you’re a man. They never said that men are a hive mind or that reading one book on feminism will solve all problems. They only said that you have poor social skills, and suggested you read a book on (I’m assuming) basic feminist and/or communication. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/21 09:56 AM |

| 1 | Q4W: How would you feel if you saw your male love interest/boyfriend/husband cryingIn my experience, the men that think this way have been very weak emotionally and prone to negative behaviour other than crying.

| 1 | Q4W: How would you feel if you saw your male love interest/boyfriend/husband crying“Crying in weakness or self pity”? I wouldn’t dump my boyfriend for crying because he’s so stressed that he’s reached his breaking point, or he feels overwhelmed and depressed. If he always reacted that way to everything in life? I’d have problems. But I can understand crying because of being too stressed and feeling overburdened.

| 1 | Q4W: How would you feel if you saw your male love interest/boyfriend/husband cryingNormal women wouldn’t attack their male partners for expressing vulnerability to them because humans are a social species. We thrive when there’s social cohesion, and abusing our partners when they’re vulnerable is damaging to that cohesion. Normal men and women develop varying levels to empathy to navigate these social situations; whereas as socially and emotionally maladjusted men and women are more likely to react abusively/inappropriately during this social interactions with their partners. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/11/21 05:52 AM |

I specifically wanted to know YOUR sources to potentially understand YOUR perspective.

| 1 | Is there any difference between a conservative woman and a gold digger?I never said that ALL women seek high earning men for safety reasons. In fact, those women could be a minority.

| 0 | Why has the number of single women risen so much, and continues to rise, yet women are also complaining they are single and can't find a man?Does it? Plenty of men have told me that this statistic exists because society is failing boys in early education and/or other major areas of life.

| 2 | Is there any difference between a conservative woman and a gold digger?I’m not moralising. I’m just choosing not to assume the intentions of an entire subsection of society.

| 3 | Is there any difference between a conservative woman and a gold digger?Unexpected medical debt is a self delusion? Lol I work for a hospital, hun. It’s a very real problem people face and not uncommon. Embracing life also means embracing your mortality and the fragility of the human body. It means accepting that someday, your body might fail and require expensive medical care to continue living. Your children might be born missing an organ or some other issue that requires expensive medical care to continue living. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/21 11:31 PM |
| 15 | Question for the fellas: young average men, do you guys even try with women your age?I see plenty of average looking men succeeding with women in their age group.

| 2 | Is there any difference between a conservative woman and a gold digger?So, unexpected medical debt and wanting to be able to afford such costly expenses isn’t a concern for anyone? For example, my parents didn’t expect or prepare for me to born missing an organ. Thankfully I won the lottery of rare birth defects because my meds are inexpensive (even without insurance) as long I see my primary care doctor at least twice a year. But affordable, unexpected health issues aren’t the norm. Especially as we get older and require more care to manage these issues. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/11/21 11:21 PM |

But when I look at my friends and coworkers, I see many who are in my situation and many who aren’t. Basically, I’m seeing plenty of ordinary guys that are attractive to women, and plenty who aren’t. Now that women don’t need men to provide for us, we can pick partners that meet our standards. Some ordinary guys meet those standards, some don’t. It depends on the individuals involved. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/10/21 05:05 PM |

| 1 | Do most women prefer to share their attractive male partner rather than to settle with average or below average partner?How did you get “only teen single mothers are whores” out of what I said? I meant that if the majority of mothers weren’t trying to caution their teen daughters against “bad boys,” the majority of mothers would be teen pregnancies. But they’re not, so clearly my peers aren’t an exception. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/10/21 02:04 AM |

| 1 | Do most women prefer to share their attractive male partner rather than to settle with average or below average partner?If the majority of mothers are irresponsible whores encouraging their daughters to be irresponsible whores, then the majority of mothers should be teen pregnancies.

| 1 | Do most women prefer to share their attractive male partner rather than to settle with average or below average partner?Lol How did I guess that would be your answer. I don’t want a “bad boy” because I want to raise my kids in a healthy family. “Bad boys” don’t fit that goal. Most of the women I’ve met dating “baby boys” are either immature or they have a mental/behavioral problem that makes bad decisions more attractive to them. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/10/21 01:44 AM |

Me and a 28 year old guy - with a lot of experience- started talking, but after getting to know me, he decided to stay friends.

There’s plenty of independent men that still marry women that can match their the man’s education and earning power because those women stimulate them mentally. I’ve met those married couples, and many of them have been together for years. These are mature men that want more out of life than sex. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/10/21 06:05 AM |

Fun is good in a spouse, but when men want their wife to stimulate them mentally, they often value ambition and responsibility in those women. (Creates reminder for 6 years now.) Got it.

| 1 | Women have lost big on feminism, men have won big, everyone is in denial about thisWe have different definitions of high value men. If a man only wants “fast cars and sluts,” then I think he’s immature. That’s not a high value man. And when a man is being betabuxxed, I feel sorry for him and I think he should leave the woman. No one should be used that way. So, when a man is successful the woman has no value other than being used for sex? Successful men see us as living sex toys and that’s it?

What does the man get out of it? I don’t know, it depends on what he wants out of it. Different men want different things from a partner.

Life doesn’t have to suck for the woman or the man. Women shouldn’t be expected to devote every hour of our waking life to our family.

| 2 | If no one owes anyone anything then why are single mothers entitled to welfare?I 100% agree with you. The problem is that socioeconomic status affects how many women can turn to the courts when fathers won’t pay the child support. Many of the women I saw abusing custody courts had the means to do so; but many of the single women I’ve known can’t afford to take the fathers to court over it.
