| 3 | HeartbreakingReading this feels like I’ve entered a portal into another world. In a very bad, bad way. It sounds like the wife is the only sane person in the story, but then you realize she’s actually married to the abuser and is in no way questioning this. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/02/22 08:56 AM |

| 229 | Thoughts? How would you debate that? Seems like it's from a male perspective?!Loving yourself is an important first step to self respect, having standards and enforcing boundaries. It will protect you from LVM with ill intentions. On the other hand, I do agree that there is no reason whatsoever to treat someone badly just because they have low self esteem or don’t love themselves. But people do, apparently. And yes there is evidence that a good, safe, loving relationship can be a major aid in improving your mental health. But because we do not live in a Disney fairy tale:… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/02/22 11:04 AM |

| 444 | Lies Men Tell: Women Can't PairbondIf you have a lot of casual sex, your brain will make less dopamine and oxytocin because it is traumatic for the body to create bonds and then break them shortly after. So it protects itself by not bonding anymore when having sex. In other words: players do this to themselves. And that is also one of the reasons we don’t date community dick. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/02/22 01:38 PM |

| 153 | Men asking for Instagram or WhatsApp prior to meetingThere was a thread about this earlier today. Absolutely do NOT give them your phone number or personal details they can use to identify you before meeting and vetting them! Tell them you want to stay on the app until you’ve actually met them. If they refuse or push.. well then you know that it’s time to take the trash out. Block and delete. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/02/22 08:07 PM |

| 274 | The Tinder SwindlerBe aware that most women are still 100% in the patriarchy. These women in the documentary are victims of the system and our society has failed them. Here at FDS we see the system, the patriarchy, for what it is and arm ourselves against these practices. The best we can do is keep converting women to the cause, and uphold our own boundaries and standards. The world is sick.

| 96 | The darker underside of the “cool girl”Yeah.. this woman is heavily traumatized and should NOT be broadcasting her “sex pozzy” attitude around as there’s nothing positive in it for any woman. It muddles the water and normalizes SA-trauma responses in our society. This woman is not living, she’s surviving in the way she knows best. It’s so easy to see now. Our society has much to learn. I’d say give her a blanket and cover her up well. 😭 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/02/22 09:21 AM |

They say that dating advice recommending playing hard to get and not initiating much is counterproductive for especially the anxiously attached.

| 39 | REMINDER: BDSM is more than a kink. It’s indicative of a man who gets off from abusing women. This poor woman found gore p*rn on her bf’s laptop and the comments are saying it’s just a harmless kink and that she’s overreacting for thinking he’ll harm her.

| 49 | Disgusted by BDSM "community".Well there is something behind this claim, but not as you think… Some women who are sexually abused are drawn to BDSM because their body wants to finish the trauma cycle. That’s what trauma survivors do - they want to finish the trauma cycle and thaw or shake out of this perpetual fight/flight/freeze state of hypervigilance. Unfortunately, BDSM is shit therapy. It is not safe and not wholesome, and the body can not come out of the cycle. Instead, BDSM reinforces the cycle and victims might even … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/12/21 09:11 AM |

I had two long relationships like that and while they weren’t super bad, I always felt they were a bit controlling. They saw my earning potential and tried to push me in a certain direction.

| 60 | Am I codependent or do I have a strong intuition?This could have been written by me, for real. You can trust your feelings and your instincts here. If you give him another chance to explain or grow, or give him the benefit of the doubt, you’ll only grow attached more and after a while your instincts will be going off like a siren but you’re in too deep to get out of it without damage. If he really wants to change for the better, he will and he will find a way to reach you. If he wanted to, he would. So you choose you. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/11/21 01:26 PM |

I mean, I’d argue that the men who fall victim to the porn industry were never very high value in the first place. Thanks to porn and liberal feminism it just became way easier to spot their shitty behavior. In summary; there have always been this many LVM, it’s just more obvious now. However, I do concur on how it makes dating on the whole a less pleasurable experience. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/11/21 07:40 AM |

| 26 | Self-Care, decoupled from consumerism, as a strategy: discussionI struggle with ADD, and I try to mitigate it with this: accept 80% good. I am a perfectionist and if I want to eat good 100% of the time, have a spotless home and never miss a walk or workout… that’s just impossible. And it makes me feel like a failure. But adapting a mindset of “I want to do these things for myself, and it only has to be good enough” I can kind of get out of that performative self care trap.

What Tesla thought of future, wireless and women almost a century agoI did not know the meaning of these words and had to look it up. But I agree with you, definitely interdiction. Calling it repose is making it like a passive sentence; removing the perpetrator. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/09/21 08:13 AM |
| 283 | "It is not in the shallow physical imitation of men that women will assert first their equality and later their superiority, but in the awakening of the intellect of women." What Tesla thought of future, wireless and women almost a century ago“BUT the female mind has demonstrated a capacity for all the mental acquirements and achievements of men, and as generations ensue that capacity will be expanded; the average woman will be as well educated as the average man, and then better educated, for the dormant faculties of her brain will be stimulated to an activity that will be all the more intense and powerful because of centuries of repose. Woman will ignore precedent and startle civilization with their progress.“ And we are startling … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/09/21 09:33 PM |

| 44 | The importance of being clear with/having boundariesSeconding I want to learn more about this. It fits my experience to a “T” and I get the random girlfriend/wife mentions from men I just talk to every now and then. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/09/21 10:22 AM |
| 62 | Men don't and can't rescue us.I saw “Titanic” last week. The main protagonist, Rose, gets swept up in a whirlwind romance with Jack and after the whole ordeal she changes her life for good. But it’s not about their love and relationship at all. It’s about her! This change was already coming. She was sick of her life and Jack functioned as a catalyst in this: he showed her what life could be like otherwise. And then she goes out and lives to her own drum. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/09/21 11:45 AM |
| 14 | Online dating as a childfree woman can be an abusive and traumatic experienceAgreed. Making comments like that about your age OP is a big red flag and a reason to block+delete. Then you can save yourself the rest of the pain! Or indeed don’t date at all. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/09/21 10:46 AM |

| 62 | Stay away from damaged goods - porn addictsIt took me a while before I realized my ex was into porn. He’s a very moral and gentle man, a “demisexual” and a pleaser in bed. Yet he managed to get himself addicted to it enough to ruin his ability to hold an erection and cum during intercourse. So much for his morals, I guess. So disappointed. He never could marvel at the beauty of nature and the world around us… that should have warned me of his fried dopamine receptors. Also the dead look in his eyes. I am angry and sorry at the same time.… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/09/21 10:32 AM |
| 15 | Weekly FDS Check-InI just realized my last relationship was more affected by porn than I thought. I’m so sad, hurt and angry! How do I vet for porn use early on, without inviting talk about sex? I’ve read here to innocently ask: “what kind of porn do you like?”, but I’d rather not discuss sex within the first few dates or give the suggestion it’s on my mind. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/09/21 06:47 AM |

| 51 | Use The Spotify Mute Button With Reckless AbandonThere is so much pick-me music on Spotify, by the time I’m done I’ve purged over half of my playlists! Did you know ABBA actually has some disgustingly predatory songs? “The name of the game” comes to mind. And how about “Honey, Honey,” where the LVM is about to disappoint the pick-me. I could go on.. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/09/21 07:51 PM |
| 33 | Spiritual men and their predatory ways . "I told Deepak Chopra how men had exploited me. Then, he did the same."I get really creepy vibes from Eckhart Tolle. Today I watched a video from him of which the first half was really really good … and then he started talking about his abusive father. He mentioned his mother didn’t know which words triggered his dad’s violence (while he did at the age of 7) and that his father had a bad childhood because of his sisters and his mother. Wat. Some of his teachings are really good so it’s a shame. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/09/21 03:05 PM |
| 0 | If he cares, he CARESThat sounds great, but know that you can never label anyone “high value” indefinitely. I would be mindful of the fact that he likes videogames, and of your possibly not-so-high attraction to him (I read your comment about it). Dead bedroom is a nightmare. Stay vetting, stay vigilant, I wish you the best. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 02:32 PM |
| 1 | Female psychologist wants to normalize Stay-At-Home DadsI’m kinda torn about this because secretly this is exactly what I want. I would like to procreate, but there’s no way in hell I’m going to be a homemaker and take care of the children. I have a dream and a business to expand. I would love for a man to stay at home, take care of me, my home and our child. To come home to a warm meal after a satisfying day of building my empire! Like all 1950’s but gender swapped. But because men like that don’t exist I consider myself to be childfree from now on.… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 08:25 AM |

I can tell you, I have been in a similar situation and from now on you will probably enjoy sex a lot more! Not the casual or rough kind (if any guy would try to spank me now I’d slap them right back lol) but genuine lovemaking. And it’s one of the best feelings in the world. So stay strong and don’t settle for less queen! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/09/21 10:29 AM |
| 1 | Bare Minimum vs High ValueWell, actually, I would. Depending on how sick he is and whether I’ve got anything major scheduled. I will not accept a job so inflexible that I can not take time off to care for family. The idea here is though that men and women are not the same, and love in different ways, thus a man needs to make more effort than a woman in the same situation. One day when I was reeling from food poisoning I kinda arm-wrestled my ex into working from home. He resented me for it. (He had days of care-leave in … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/09/21 02:49 PM |

| 1 | People will try to pull you back down to your old pick-me self. Don’t let them. Level up anyway.So true. At some point, when you love and respect yourself and you’re on the right path, things just kind of flow. You only need to remove some obstacles here and there and then the universe will take you where you need to be! “Not today Satan”, I’m gonna borrow that LOL. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/09/21 09:53 AM |

| 105 | Dissociation During Sex & Strategies to Cope With ItI cannot read the article but if you disassociate during sex you probably either: do not want to have sex at that time or with that person, so get out asap have sexual trauma that needs to be resolved. I used to low-key disassociate during sex with someone I didn’t know very well. That’s how I found out casual sex was not for me, only when I’m properly emotionally attached to someone can I be fully present in the moment. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/09/21 08:46 AM |
| 1 | Weekly FDS Check-inWell I do remember research that said women were happiest when their male partners were at least 10 kgs heavier than them. And I feel this insecurity myself too when I’m with a smaller man so I wouldn’t do it. But I also know of a happily married and still passionate couple (about 30 years together) where he looks like a stick figure and she’s Venus of Willendorf. As for slightly shorter: no experience but I would be willing to try - I’m somewhat tall myself. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/09/21 03:29 PM |
| 1 | Weekly FDS Check-inWell, first of all, don’t beat yourself up about it. Crushes are natural, but you can minimize the impact of them. Imagine him pooping! Or something else disgusting. It can be hard, but whatever you do, don’t let him live rent-free in your head. Also ask yourself: what does he add to your life, outside of your relationship goals? Does he have a good network that can help you find a better job? Does he buy you nice things? Does he fix your cupboard etc. etc. Recently a book was shared on this sub… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/09/21 03:22 PM |

| 4 | Men want to believe porn is empowering to women so they can to consume it without guiltI 100% recommend the recent (june 9th) FDS podcast in which they interviewed Dr. Gail Dines, a radfem professor who is very much anti-porn and she words it very eloquently. I’m going to listen to it again soon because it was so full of TRUTH. Heartily recommended to anyone who wants to learn more about why the porn industry (and the patriarchy) is harmful to EVERYONE. Not just women. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/09/21 03:31 PM |
| 98 | My mother’s analogy on BDSMThere’s always been a lot of resentment in the BDSM-community towards the idea that their kinks are actually signs of mental issues, trauma or coping mechanisms. But I personally found this to be true actually. These people need help, not enabling and positivity. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/09/21 10:03 AM |

| 1 | What are some examples of imbalanced relationships that stand/stood out to you in media? I’m currently rewatching Harry Potter for the first time since joining FDS, and I’m finding Hermione’s relationship with Ron… a lot less endearing than I used to 🥴Good analysis! In the case of Boys over flowers it’s even a bit worse: the good love interest doesn’t even take an active interest in her. You know this whole thread is making me realize a lot of my favorite media probably portray downright abusive relationships. Beauty and the Beast comes to mind. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/09/21 06:51 AM |

No flowers or gifts or dates or anything. But I believe none of the men in the show do that. How do you feel about that? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/09/21 06:45 AM |
| 1 | If he needs space from the relationship, it's a no.Your comment really spoke to me, sadly. This is how I felt in my most recent relationship. I left him and I’m having a hard time coping. But I want to be a priority. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/09/21 07:12 AM |
