1	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. It’s not patriarchy. It’s behavioral economics. We know we’re not entitled to sex, but we’re going to stop at nothing until we figure out how to qualify for sex. This is the problem with feminism. The only acknowledgement of sexual dynamics is “men aren’t entitled.” And the men are like, “yeah agreed. So…. Now what?” And the women are like “what do you mean?” Feminism does nothing but tell men what not to do. It never tells us what to do. Feminism needs an honest discussion about the CORRECT way…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 02:24 AM
1	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. The problem is that a man’s ability to seduce a woman is the most rugged, social Darwinist facet of life. It makes capitalism seem like a drum circle by comparison. This will never, ever, ever be made a point of “social change” because men aren’t entitled to sex from women. It’s the only form of equality that can never be achieved, because the one area of life where women have unquestionably more power than men is a matter of bodily autonomy. We can’t equalize the fact that men want to fuck more…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 02:02 AM
1	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. Feminism has a disconnect problem. It doesn’t acknowledge baseline sexuality, which is baked into almost all of us. Men have the burden of pursuit. Most men have tried the feminist way, and it gets them single and dry for five years. We know what you want. Equality, respect, prestige, etc. Great. More power to you and I hope the patriarchy doesn’t get in your way. But, men aren’t really concerned about what you want beyond “good luck, fight the good fight!” We’re rugged individualists, necessary…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 01:29 AM

You don’t expect it on a moral or social level, but you do expect it sexually. You will not find us sexually attractive. I hate to break this to you, but we don’t care what you expect on this level. We’re not your friends. We don’t care what you want, we only care what you’re aroused by. And for a man to secure a mate, he’s gotta adhere to gender roles.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 01:23 AM
1	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. Feminists don’t expect anything because women don’t care if attraction happens or not. Men talk about women’s expectations in the context of what we have to do in order to be attractive to you, which usually involves male gender roles. I know, so annoying. But hey, we’re the pursuers right? Until women start pursuing men at a 50% rate, the patriarchy will continue, because in 2025, men usually have to follow gender roles in order to secure a mate. Women do not. We have legislated equality to a T…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 01:09 AM
2	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. Men have the wrong idea about what women “expect.” Women, especially feminists, will say “we don’t expect any of this!” Which is true to an extent, except it’s an implicit ultimatum. They don’t “expect anything” because they’re so happy to opt out. Men have a different perspective on this. When we talk about what we think women “expect,” it’s with the caveat of, “this is what they expect, IF I’m going to be able to attract them.” Women don’t “expect” shit because they don’t care if attraction ha…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 12:55 AM
1	Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women. Understand something about women. They don’t expect anything. They don’t view mating the same way we do. Women have a “my way or the highway” approach to this. Any contradictory, nonsensical or hypocritical expectation they have for a potential man comes with a “deal with it” attitude. They don’t care if it’s a double standard because they’re more than happy to opt out. Men generally would rather date down than be alone. Women don’t give a fuck. Even if they don’t qualify for their own standards…	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 12:50 AM
1	Men aren't approaching women due to a lack of social skills, merely because they are taught not to. That wasn’t really my point. I’m saying, women don’t understand the male mind. They insist that confidence is a universally attractive trait. It’s not. Confidence is a trait that women find attractive in men. It doesn’t work in reverse. Men do not care if a woman is confident. I mean, we’d care in the sense that we care about your well being, but it’s not a sexually arousing attraction trigger for us. Men don’t find confidence sexy the way women do.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/04/25 12:44 AM
1	The male gender role of being the stoic rock in a romantic relationship is the most pronounced example of emotional labour that exists in life, and those who believe women do more emotional labour on average are either lying or ignorant. However, some people go as far as to say the male gender role of being the stoic rock is toxic and antiquated. Bullshit. Women are more neurotic than men on average. This is biology. It’s our job to be the rock and it should be. Men should still be allowed to open up from time to time, but we have to drive the car of emotional stability. It’s every bit as real a difference as physical strength. The average 50th percentile woman is weaker than 97% of men. Conversely, men are ready for sex first a…	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/04/25 12:37 AM
1	The male gender role of being the stoic rock in a romantic relationship is the most pronounced example of emotional labour that exists in life, and those who believe women do more emotional labour on average are either lying or ignorant. Emotional labor is done for the benefit of someone ELSE. Men do 95% of this in heterosexual relationships. When women talk about “emotional labor,” they’re usually just whining about how hard it is to process their own emotions. It’s self indulgent neurotic mental masturbation. Not labor.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/04/25 12:32 AM
1	Does the whole "emotional labor" argument seem unnecessarily one-sided to anyone else? Emotional labor is work done for the benefit of SOMEONE ELSEs emotions. Men do 95% of this in a straight relationship. Processing your own emotions isn’t emotional labor. It’s self help, which is important, but it’s not LABOR. Women are such martyrs.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/04/25 12:28 AM
1	Does the whole "emotional labor" argument seem unnecessarily one-sided to anyone else? Men do most emotional labor in heterosexual relationships. The masculine burden of making a woman “feel safe” all the time is a second full time job. It’s exhausting. Meanwhile, a woman’s “emotional labor” is nothing more than a martyr plight about how difficult it is to feel her feelings. It’s mental masturbation. Labor, by definition is work done for the benefit of someone else. Women’s “emotional labor” is self indulgent neuroticism. Not labor.	/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates	19/04/25 12:25 AM
1	Men aren't approaching women due to a lack of social skills, merely because they are taught not to. Men need to lift some weights and be more presentable. Women need to get their shit together too, but they only follow what the men do. It’s YOUR responsibility as a man to make yourself appealing. You can’t control your height, the shape of your face or the size of your dick but you can improve literally everything else. Get to fucking WORK	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/04/25 12:59 AM
4	Men aren't approaching women due to a lack of social skills, merely because they are taught not to. This myth needs to go away. Confidence is not a universally attractive trait. Women find it attractive in men. Men do not care if a woman is confident. It’s not a bad thing but it’s neutral. It is NOT an attraction trigger for us	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/04/25 12:57 AM
1	Why do a lot of you say, it’s easy for men to get a date nowadays when it really isn’t? Men don’t have to have a partner we find hot. You ladies still don’t understand us. We don’t care who it is. We’re not picky. We don’t think of a “dream girl” it’s not in our DNA. Anyone is better than no one. Most men don’t get who they want, we get who we can.	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/04/25 12:43 AM
2	A lot of “icks” and turn-offs are just modern women reinforcing traditional gender roles while pretending to reject them What are you talking about. No behavior is required for women’s sexuality. All you have to do is exist. Men have to exhibit a certain set of behaviors to be sexually active	/r/PurplePillDebate	17/04/25 12:38 AM
