| 2 | What does it mean to "Lead" a relationship?That's a good explanation, thanks. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/24 03:36 PM |
| -2 | Women today are the ones slut shaming men and trying to control men's bodies.It's ok to be attracted more to one race but it becomes problematic when that attraction is based on stereotypes about that race. Ie. I like Asian women - fine I like Asian women because they're more feminine and submissive - not fine | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/24 03:35 PM |
| -1 | Women today are the ones slut shaming men and trying to control men's bodies.I never said women could demand that? But yeah, looking for someone because of their personality is very different than specifically going somewhere because you've stereotyped all the women to be a certain way because of their race. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/24 03:34 PM |
| 21 | Women today are the ones slut shaming men and trying to control men's bodies.Obviously the issue is that they immediately assumed he's a passport bro based on very, very flimsy evidence although if lots of people where you work are, it's more likely, I guess. Like so what if men are going overseas to have some fun This is where I take issue. Passport bro aren't men just going overseas for fun. They're men intentionally going to certain countries to find a partner based on racist/sexist stereotypes about that country. That's why women feel concerned around them. For examp… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/24 06:03 AM |
| 1 | What does it mean to "Lead" a relationship?Fair enough. What would qualify for you, out of curiosity? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/24 05:46 AM |
| 2 | What does it mean to "Lead" a relationship?I think this is defined on a case-by-case basis. I lead the relationship with my girlfriend. I make/get final say on most decisions about dates, I tend to budget and plan finances (we bothhave our own money too), I sometimes ask her to wear certain things or do stuff for me. In exchange, I pay for most stuff, I spoil her and I plan things. However, to be clear, none of that would happen if she's said she didn't want it as well. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/04/24 05:15 PM |
| 0 | Question: Why the “freshly 18” double standard?Not sure how you don't understand that people have different opinions about 2 completely different situations. 1 - This primarily depends on the age gap. 18f dating 22m. Most people will say probably fine. 18f dating 34m, mostly people will have an issue. Why? Because it's not actually about the age, it's about the difference in maturity, independence, financial income and others factors that create a power imbalance in a relationship. Obviously this imbalance can happen in any relationship, but… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/04/24 04:57 PM |
| 6 | Is FTM transitions a good example of male loneliness comparative to female loneliness?That's probably true in a lot of places, yeah. I've also found a genuine sense of sisterhood but there's definitely those out there who see other women as 'the enemy'. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 09:10 PM |
| 20 | Is FTM transitions a good example of male loneliness comparative to female loneliness?From those I know, they gain a sense of sisterhood (unless they meet transphobic women). Saying they feel accepted again, is dependent on the LGBT-friendliness of the people they meet. However, they face other issues that women struggle with, like harassment or being seen as lesser than. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 05:32 PM |
| 3 | Late stage feminism leads to population collapseAh, so you're solution is that women should remain uneducated and not work to pop out kids? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 03:18 PM |
| 8 | Late stage feminism leads to population collapseAs a society, we have more than enough money. It's just in the hands of a greedy few. So as I said, restructuring (including wealth redistribution) would be required? And what solution do you provide? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 01:27 PM |
| 12 | Late stage feminism leads to population collapseSociety will adapt. When we had smaller populations, we were still fine. There isn't really another solution other than to change the way our society is set up. Plus, less people means less infrastructure and services are required to begin with. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 01:09 PM |
| 1 | Is it fair to say that being a genuinely nice guy WITH the ability to be not so nice when needed is the most attractive thing a man can be?I don't think you can say any one thing is the MOST attractive because it will vary from person to person. But a man who is kind and gentle, but not a pushover ia definitely a good start for most women. Honest, empathetic, humble, compassionate, patient, loyal, supportive, self-sacrificing. I really appreciate that you've expanded on this. Too many people think being nice will get them laid, without acknowledging that nice is a nothing word and they need the things you've listed above. is what m… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 01:08 PM |
| 9 | Late stage feminism leads to population collapseAnd the problem with this is...? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 12:48 PM |
| 41 | Is FTM transitions a good example of male loneliness comparative to female loneliness?Your general headline, I agree with. FTM regularly comment on how isolating it is and I think a lot of that is to with how men are perceived by women and how they interact with other men. I feel like loneliness relates to an emotional vulnerability, not just physically being surrounded by people. Due to the world we live in, and the way men are discouraged from being emotional or forming vulnerable connections with friends, men struggle a lot with feeling lonely. There is a general sense of sist… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/04/24 12:47 PM |
| 1 | Women can't have agency while also being perpetual victimsUnless they were literally threatened with violence into it ,of course you can "blame" them for it. This is a horrific way of thinking that takes blame of abusers and onto victims. One can be coerced and manipulated without any form of violence being involved. It's shocking that you believe we should blame abuae victims for 'their own actions' instead of blaming the predatory behaviour that was targeting them. practically a child at 20yo I never mentioned an age. A lot of age gaps can involve wo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/04/24 04:24 AM |
| 0 | Women can't have agency while also being perpetual victimsPerhaps that wasn't the greatest phrasing but yes, age gap relationships have higher risk of intimate partner violence, have higher homicide rates are more likely to engage in risky sex. These numbers increase as the age gap increases and it tends to be that the numbers are higher when the age gap includes the man being older. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/8100312_Couple_Age_Discrepancy_and_Risk_of_Intimate_Partner_Homicide#pf6 | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/04/24 04:16 AM |
| – | As a man I honestly can't see whats unattractive about short men.As others have said, women are typically shorter so 'taller than me' still leaves most men in that bracket. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 10:02 PM |
| 11 | Women can't have agency while also being perpetual victimsNone of these things correlate. You keep talking about 'consequences of your actions' but...what actions? Neither men or women's brains are fully developed by 25, that doesn't mean you don't have any rational thoughts or intelligence until that age. I fail to see what this point means. Age gap relationships are often founded on manipulation tactics, DARVO abuse tactics, coercion, threats, bribery etc. So yes, women technically 'choose' them, you can't really blame someone when they've been manip… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 10:01 PM |
| – | As a man I honestly can't see whats unattractive about short men.Mostly women don't care. Most women won't phase men out because of it. A lot of women even prefer 'short kings'. This isn't really an actual issue outside of online spaces. Edit: According to a study another man posted here, 50% don't care. That's a lot. Those who do care only specify taller than then, which considering the height difference between men and women, will still include most men. While I'm sure there are some of that 50% who have a specific requirement, like 6ft+, that still leaves … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 09:11 PM |
| – | If the blue pill is correct, why does the friend zone exist?What? No, but having an arbitrary list doesn't mean a women is going to want you. Respect her as a friend and stop complaining about being 'friend zoned' as if her friendship is some poor consolation prize. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 04:18 PM |
| 1 | If the blue pill is correct, why does the friend zone exist?What? No, but having an arbitrary list doesn't mean a women is going to want you. Respect her as a friend and stop complaining about being 'friend zoned' as if her friendship is some poor consolation prize. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 04:18 PM |
| – | If the blue pill is correct, why does the friend zone exist?Because she's just not into you. Having the checklist of 'good partner' qualities doesn't automatically mean that she will be attracted to you. It's not a difficult concept. Despite what redpill will hve you believe, you don't get a girl by meeting x, y, z standards. Some women just won't be into you. Women get upset about it because we realise that someone we valied as a closer friend only looked at us for a relationship/sex and is likely to leave when they realise that's not an option.

| 0 | We need to stop lumping together sexual assault and sexual harassmentAh, sorry, I was simply using your statistic as a placeholder, although I'm sure there are studies out there. Yes, whistling, lewd jokes etx are all forms of sexual harassment and are disgusting. I'm curious why you think a man who sexually harasses, let's say, his coworker, shouldn't be fired? Or at least given a warning as I don't tend to believe in a one strike policy? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 07:39 AM |
| 3 | There is honestly no need to have kids, enter a long term relationship or become married anymore as a manMen are more likely to cheat. Men are more likely to leave when their wife gets ill. Men are less likely to ask for child custody. Women put in more hours of labour in terms of housework. Some women also work full time alongside that. Women do the majority of childcare. Women bear the brunt of the mental load. Tell me how men are putting more into it? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/24 07:36 AM |
| 8 | There is honestly no need to have kids, enter a long term relationship or become married anymore as a manWho mentioned commitment? I was talking about who benefits. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/24 09:17 PM |
| 18 | There is honestly no need to have kids, enter a long term relationship or become married anymore as a manWhat does that even mean? The statistics are right there, my man. https://www.drtartt.com/single-post/the-benefits-of-marriage-for-husbands-why-men-should-get-married#:~:text=According%20to%20numerous%20research%20articles,but%2C%20overall%2C%20it%20does | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/24 08:03 PM |
| 5 | We need to stop lumping together sexual assault and sexual harassmentThe terminology and laws desperately need updating to reflect the many different types of crimes. Especially when you add in digital crimes of a sexual nature, our laws just aren't equipped to deal with it. That being said, 70%+ women have experienced a form of sexual violence and I think specifying whether it was assault or harassment is probably one of the least important parts of that statistic. They are both disgusting crimes that no one should be subjected to. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/24 07:47 PM |
| 33 | There is honestly no need to have kids, enter a long term relationship or become married anymore as a manStatistically, men benefit from marriage and relationships and probably always have. They do less housework, live longer and are generally happier than their single counterparts. They're also likely to do better in divorces and in custody of children so I don't know what you mean by risk. I'm not sure where your comment comes from. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/24 07:43 PM |
| 3 | Romantically speaking, people are atomized by individualism, postmodernism, and sexual liberation.While I'll concede that modern dating standards and pickiness is a new concept, this is utterly ridiculous. abusive relationships are mutually abusive. It also isn't that 'women' couldn't do anything bout it, it is that the laws around marriage were structured so that nobody could do anything bout it. Women in a lot of places legally couldn't get a divorce, they weren't allowed to. They weren't allowed to work. Couldn't own a bank account. Marital rape wasn't even a crime until about 50/60 years… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 07:17 PM |
| 1 | Relationship expert says men shouldn't date if they're brokeI think most sane people agree this is ridiculous. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 06:27 AM |
| 2 | OK, so older men are gross and younger women only want their money... why is it assumed that women their age are different, considering how out of the game many of these men were when they didn't have money?So with no actual data to back this up, you're just making claims? There was a study done to see what ages men and women found attractive. They tested between the ages of 18-50. Most women picked men close to their own age, give or take a couple of years. Most men picked 16-22, no older. So if an older man is struggling dating, it's probably something about him, not that women his own age don't find him attractive. https://metro.co.uk/2019/02/22/men-regardless-age-will-always-attracted-women-ear… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 06:26 AM |
| 1 | A great article about the opportunity cost between staying single and settling down in the modern worldI don't think there's anything wrong with this, though. People have more choice and a lot of people are choosing to stay single because they're happier. What's the problem with that? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 06:21 AM |
| 11 | Romantically speaking, people are atomized by individualism, postmodernism, and sexual liberation.A lot of 'mutual relationships' of the past were just abusive but the women couldn't do anything about it. They weren't this happy family people like you make them out to be. People defining themselves by interests or gender or sexuality has pretty much always happened, people are just allowed to be more open about it now. I don't really understand what you're trying to say at all. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 06:13 AM |
| 1 | Who/what is maintaining the higher beauty standards for women?You listed a multitude of reasons that these standards are maintained. Women are subtly pressured from a young age through media, toys other people's criticism. Women are supposed to look pretty to be appealing to men and face backlash when they don't. This is clear from a simple look at comments under videos from unattractive women, especially if she's a larger women. Men do heavily enforce this, as they react poorly to unattractive women, including verbal abuse or occasionally physical. Howeve… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/04/24 06:06 AM |

| 1 | Friendzone Discussion: Should people who are friendzoned have to stay friends with someone? Does the friendzone exist? For reds and bluesThe friendzone is a term to soften being rejected. You aren't friendzoned. You're their friend. Whether you choose to stay friends or not is up to you. If the pain is that bad, it's understandable that you can't be around that person. However, it raises the question of whether you were actually their friend, or simply hoping you'd be able to hook up with them. In your scenario, it sounds like you genuinely were friends so I can imagine how that must hurt. However, a lot of people intentionally b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/03/24 02:11 PM |
| -1 | People used to openly acknowledge that women liked assholes until Blue Pillers fabricated this whole narrative, making it a taboo subject and trying to shame people for itDid a lot of women like asshole? Or did they simply not have a choice on who they dated/married? Up until very recent history, it was legal to abuse your wife, even expected. And as a women, you expected and prepared for that because that's what 'love' looks like. So did women like assholes more? Or was it a product of society? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/03/24 02:06 PM |
| 1 | Everything you use is invented and built by men is a faulty argument. Stop using itThere's lots of refutes to this argument. Firstly, many great invention were made by women: wifi, window wipers, computers/coding. Secondly, just because a certain invention was made by a man, doesn't mean women's labour didn't contribute. The man wouldn't be able to work if his wife wasn't taking care of the house, raising his kids, cooking etc Thirdly, how many things were only invented by men because women were kept out of the field? Or were invented by women but men stole the credit? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/03/24 02:03 PM |
