Nothing says "I love you" like a prenup. That level of romance is rare these days.

I would say to men who believe such things that women often have quite a bit of empathy for them. Whereas the vice versa is less true.

Just because you enjoy a really well-prepared roast with all the trimmings doesn't mean an ice cream cone every once in a while isn't satisfying.

No number of trips, cars or bikes is going to make a person truly happy. No amount of meaningless sex is going to make a person happy. If a man doesn't get up in the morning and feel content in his own skin, he is suffering needlessly. That doesn't mean standing there and thinking you're perfect. No one is perfect. Perfection is not achievable. I mean a place where you're not simply an amalgam of every hurt you've ever felt with an uncontrollable urge to lash out at scapegoats you blame for your…

Depends on how you define obesity. The clinical definition sets the bar far lower than what colloquial understanding would be. Also, one person's fat is another person's normal. In my life, I've found more women willing to ignore a man not being buff than the other way around.

Personally, I think there are equal amounts of hucksterism on the RP side as there is lashing out because of bitterness. I'm sorry these MGTOW guys have had problems in life. I'm sorry things haven't worked out. I just feel their time would be better spent seeking therapy to remove anger from their lives rather than feel they need to withdraw into a cult.

I only speak for myself but I have always preferred relationships that contain real emotions on the part of both people. I had the other kind of relationship once but didn't realize that's what it was until much later - I thought we were having a real relationship. I cut it off right away and did not speak to that person again.

Therapy goes a long way to help and I mean the kind that is wholly self-reflective. In my experience, anger came from trauma or set of traumas early in life that were unresolved in my mind. Anger over abuse, mostly. This tainted my ability to have relationships because I was always waiting to be betrayed somehow. Once I understood where it came from, I was able to let it go. Not forgive what happened, just to say it's in the past and it has nothing to do with the way I act now. Letting go of the…

Either that guy is a put on looking for clicks to his YouTube page or he's a dangerous nutter who I hope is not a gun owner. His lunatic ranting has nothing to do with the situation he's in. What in the world does online dating have to do with what's happening in a damned bagel store?

I'm guessing that unless one is able to compartmentalize their sexuality from their need for intimacy, employing a sex workers might not be as satisfying. I have nothing against sex work. I've have friends who have done it. I think it should at least be decriminalized as it's a victimless crime. That said, it can end up being worse than masturbation because it mimics intimacy but offers no real feelings. Maybe I'm just speaking for myself after a long life, but I've always needed real emotions o…

A lot of the questions I see from RP men could be prefaced with "Mommy,..." and they would not seem out of place. How young and/or naive are these guys? If they haven't even lived a life yet, what are they even complaining about?

...people get blinded by the honeymoon phase of "love", eventually get bored and unsatisfied of each other, break up and fuck other people Well, New Relationship Energy is a real thing. It's what gets a person hooked. The sex is usually explosive in this phase. Then people settle into their lives together and it's less exciting. A lot of people who cheat do so because they're addicted to that feeling. They want the explosiveness so seek it out. Honestly, I don't judge what people do with their r…

That's a good question. I think a good number of the rank and file who identify as that suffer from some sort of unchecked personality disorder. Maybe a smaller number are technically mentally ill.

Pitfalls of open relationships: Lack of honesty/communications between primary partners. Jealousy Selfishness If people can't be honest about other partners, then they are cheating. If they can't get over their petty jealousies, then they are not ready for an open relationship. If they are utterly selfish, then they are probably engaged in #1 as a cover and probably shouldn't be in an open relationship. Open relationships are not easy. Polyamory is certainly not easy.

There are plenty of women who I find attractive to not put up with those who have personalities that are negative or nasty. For example, you couldn't pay me enough money to want to even talk to Ivanka Trump. I don't care about her politics or her father, just that she comes across as an empty shell of a human. I have no interest no matter how attractive she seems.

I'm a man (albeit an early Gen Xer) and as far as I'm concerned anyone can be a member of any cult or believe whatever they like - as long as it doesn't touch me in any way. When the time comes and men who have practiced it start complaining that it harmed them, then that's on them. No sympathy from me. Feel free to clean up the mess you made of your own life instead saying how someone else forced you to become MGTOW and now it's not as liberating as you thought it would be.

Reading this makes me feel sad for young men and their feelings of self-worth. I'm not entirely sure what these people think they are gaining by this behavior. Is it just to feel good about themselves (although I doubt they ever truly get there)? Is it because they see life as a zero sum game of winners and losers?

Then with the number of guns available in the US, the number of men versus women doing what is stated in the OP should be approaching an equal number. That it is not indicates that it isn't just the means that are important, but the motivation. Men are motivated to do these things more than women. Why?

I can't argue against your point for the most part. There are a good number of men who are firmly in the Red Pill camp who truly believe that the jargon and theories there are based on some sort of science. They've drunk from the same sort of water that creates cults/religions. They live in as different a reality as those who believe that angels and demons are actual things and not just metaphors.

Red Pill theories are pseudoscience plain and simple. They are the equivalent of the kind of nonsense spouted by self-help evangelists like Tony Robbins. Tell people what they want to hear. Use jargon that makes it sound scientific. Add on a layer of us versus them paranoia/conspiracy. There you have the perfect recipe for recruiting into adjacent ideologies.

This only happened once in my life. I worked with a woman who was verging on model-level attractive who constantly said the most inappropriate things to me. Cringe inducing sexual things. Her behavior was so incessant that I went to a friend of hers in the office and asked her to intervene. She did and the nonsense stopped - with me. She continued her behavior until one of the supervisors simply fired her one day because she was nothing but a disruption.

Her book deal is aside her accusation. You are reaching a conclusion to the origin of her accusation that is not fact based. It is conjecture. The source for meeting Trump is a photo of them together. Her husband at the time was a well-known local newsman. She was a well-known columnist. Those were the exact social circles that Trump was part of at the time. If you want to say that one photo is the only time they ever ran into each other then you can do that. However, logic dictates that they wo…

In all honesty, I think RP is filled with purveyors of pseudoscience. They're evangelizing misogyny with vast generalizations and bizarre formulas for human interaction. I don't think they give anyone hope except maybe at the early stages of their involvement. The more they read the more embittered they get when the formulas don't work for them.
/r/PurplePillDebate24/06/19 10:28 AM

Doesn't apply in this case since it presupposes a motivation and conclusion that is not proved. To call something a "false accusation" claims knowledge that doesn't exist here. All we have is an accusation and the fact that Trump lied about never having met this person. Anything can be judged but one has to take into account that even if the accuser has a book deal they are opening themselves up to a barrage of negative (and in the case of Trump supporters vitriolic and violent) responses. It al…

For a man to know what a woman feels when someone harasses them they would need to live in a world where they feel unsafe doing everyday activities and then not believed when something does happen. I'm primarily talking about white men who go through life unhindered by anything.

Religion is a poison that removes logic and replaces it with magical thinking.

I would say that the spark of attraction, which can be an attraction to someone's intellect or personality, can often make a person more physically attractive in the eyes of the person interested.

My observation of that whole side of the discussion is that they seem to want to believe in a unified mathematical theory of relationships because it's easier to follow an instruction manual that spells everything out for them.

They both know my wife in real life - same social circle. As to the LTR aspect of these relationships, it's a mixed bag.

You can create statistical probabilities with a large enough sample. However, what Peterson is suggesting is a one-size-fits-all doctrine regarding trust. It's a bit cold and reduces human interaction to the level of a business transaction.

Like others who replied, I think the problem with ED for most men (those without real physical issues) is brought on by anxiety.

Speaking only for myself, I have multiple women partners of varying degrees of seriousness. I have a wife and three other women who I'm having relationships with somewhere between casual friend to official partner level. All of those women have other partners as well. My personal belief is that monogamy is often forced upon people by a society that sees it as the "official" way to partner. Why? As long as people are honest with their partners about the others in their lives, polyamory can work.

On a macro scale, I think the laws of attraction balance out in favor of either gender finding a very wide range of people attractive. If you narrow it to college-age people in the US, you probably will find it skewing towards one end of the curve based upon their consumption of popular cultures notions of beauty.

It's one thing to suffer from some traumatic life event but I find that many of the men who lack partners they might want are simply resigned to their circumstance.

First off, if your dog is pissing on everything then there's a huge problem with your dog.

My relationship with a woman is what I focus on. I'm not interested in her past relationships unless she chooses to tell me.

All people have to learn to negotiate relationships. Why is everyone so afraid to speak plainly?

If I had to guess it's because the FWB phenomenon is more common to people who have not yet settled down and who have a very large group of friends they interact with. Once one settles down, the group of friends shrinks significantly and any additional relationships tend to be more serious than simply showing up in someone's bed on a moment's notice. In the latter case, it tends to be more about poly than FWB.

Why? Exclusivity should be agreed upon by people in a relationship and not assumed.

As someone who is friends with people who have worked in the adult film industry as well as some sex workers, all I have to say is don't do this. It's not anyone's business to shame a person for working in a business just because another person wants to be a dick about it.

OK. Remember how Social Security is stealing when you're on disability because of your condition.

An education is supposed to be more than a piece of paper that acts as an employment ticket. It should trigger a lifetime of seeking knowledge for its own sake.

My view of marriage is that it's a legal document that infers certain rights and protections all at once. You could do the same with a business agreement if you wanted. I know people who aren't married but are completely devoted to each other. I don't think marriage is some magical thing.

Once NRE (New Relationship Energy) wears off, the sexual thrill reduces significantly. If all people have is that energy then the marriage is doomed. However, true feelings of love and companionship are a true foundation for a marriage. Feeling that you both make up a part of a whole. Feeling an emptiness when they aren't around. Wanting to do things to make them happy and to help them. These are the things that make a marriage last. It's about a real connection that transcends sex or children.

There are many people who fit that mold yet luck plays a part as well. I might not have met my wife if not for the fact that we had a mutual friend who thought we might click because of our wiseass personalities.

The debate is a political one regarding legislation. It has nothing to do with the worth of a human in a society.

It's a fallacious argument that seeks to justify men having more worth than women to explain disparity in pay and civil rights.

Most women are not seeking out an abusive a-hole to date. Those men are usually predators who know how to get close to women before showing their true colors. They use their looks or money or lies to attract women. There are damaged people who have gone through trauma in life and end up being attracted to the same sort of abuser that victimized them. However, most women want a decent, self-aware person who has empathy and treats them with respect. A-hole guys are basically just evil con artists.

I know. It's also called being an abusive jerk and possibly a sadist. Otherwise known as an a-hole. No class at all.

...or people could think twice before making impolite or rude comments no matter how true the commenter thinks it is. No one elected any acquaintance the Truthteller General of their lives. Cutting someone down just to prove how real one is might just be the best reason not to have a person like that as a friend. No tact. No class. No empathy. Just a selfish vessel.

Good question. For me, social groups where people meet-up in real life so you actually get to know people and be attracted to them. I've found that people who have similar tastes or interests get together, it tends to foster a more closely knit group. People see themselves as a peer group and are open to interact. From that point, I can't help except to say you ask if someone would like to go out. If yes, great. If no, next person.

First date: Gughenheim Museum to see an exhibit. We decided to get a bite to eat afterwards. We walked around talking about the art and then ourselves and it worked. There's nothing wrong going to dinner. However, I subscribe to the etiquette rule that if I invite someone somewhere, I am paying. It's like inviting someone to my home. It is incumbent upon me to feed them and not ask them to bring food.

The first rule of writing is to define terms when using acronyms because you have to accept that there are people reading who don't know them. A search for CMV brings up articles about a virus and banking.

Short answer: You should be honest with those who love you. You think having depression is a sign of weakness? You think feeling emotions is a sign of weakness? They are not. Having no control of your emotions might be problematic if you allow them to dictate the course of your life and have them guide your decisions. I've suffered with depression my whole life - I've been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder which often makes me swing between intense feelings of emotion. The problem w…

For anyone, each relationship is its own separate thing. Some people you want to have a deeper relationship with and others not. This might change from week to week. Had you met someone a week later, you might have decided to be more serious with based upon the way you felt right then and there. I don't believe in types beyond a basic level of likes and dislikes (which are also mutable). Feelings are not so scientific no matter how people try to codify them.

My opinion is everyone is crazy to some degree. I'm not talking about debilitating mental illnesses or personality disorders, I mean the thing that makes an individual a creative thinker. I've been attracted to women who I can have deep conversations with on a variety of subjects. I've been attracted to artists and writers. I've been attracted to high-powered corporate VPs and university professors. The "craziness" of these women is in the eye of the beholder. I find them interesting and lovable…

Because I truly want to understand how some of the folks here think. I'm probably quite a bit older than most of the posters here so I'm way out of the peer group. I've been through some of the self-inflicted problems a lot of young men are going through and came out the other side a far more decent person. But I went through a lot of year of angst. Honestly, if I can be here and say that one thing to one person and make them get on the course to a happier and fulfilling life then I did somethin…

You believe that statistics collated by federal law enforcement are exaggerated based on what evidence? Because they don't match what you happen to believe they should be? Traditionally, rape has been an under-reported crime due to the stigma societies have attached to it. The statistics are not ambivalent nor made up. That said, yes, if you touch somebody and they didn't want to be touched, you are in-fact assaulting them. If they tell you to stop, then stop, but you frankly should be controlli…

Eating is not for fun, it's for survival. Please eat only those things that provide the optimal nutrition. Don't worry about the flavor because that's not important. Also avoid alcohol. The empty calories there are worthless for evolutionary nutrition.
