Before the sexual revolution, there used to be a lot of gender segregation in society. There isn't anymore, and that's likely why male friendships have become much rarer since the 1960s. The presence of women in formerly male spaces drastically changed the social dynamic and caused men to become more competitive and to focus more of their energy on pursuing women and less of their energy on forging friendships with other men.

| 2 | If your romantic frustrations are causing your sadness then YES, handling this part of your life WILL get rid of the sadnessThose evolutionary explainations are always post hoc generalisations Evolutionary explanations put forth by scientists are not post hoc generalizations as anyone who had even the thinnest knowledge about the subject knows. Evolutionary psychology is based on the scientific method and looks for evidence broadly in medicine, biology, anthropology, anthropological comparisons, and zoology to mention the most important ones. People who are against it usually sound incredibly ignorant when they try t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/22 06:47 PM |
| 3 | If your romantic frustrations are causing your sadness then YES, handling this part of your life WILL get rid of the sadnessPeople are more likely to be less lonely in relationships because the people who form LTR usually already have lots of friends and good social connection Most men in LTRs don't have lots of close friendships and would feel lonely if their partner broke up with them.

That is not exclusive to romantic relationships Because of tens of thousands of years of evolution, men have developed a specific set of psychological dispositions. We don't share our feelings with other men like women share theirs with other women. We aren't physically affectionate with other men and we don't talk about our emotions much. Emotional skills protect feminine women from stress but not feminine men, so there's is no benefit f… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/22 04:27 PM |
| 9 | If your romantic frustrations are causing your sadness then YES, handling this part of your life WILL get rid of the sadnessYour friendships are obviously not satisfying enough if you feel that level of loneliness. Generalizations like this are silly and oversimplified. The reality is that there are many different types of loneliness. Romantic loneliness can't be cured by friendships because it isn't caused by not having friends.
